(Israel Hayom) "When the Palestinians talk about the 'occupation,' they are referring to the entire territory of the Land of Israel, not just Judea and Samaria [the West Bank]," former Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon said Wednesday at Bar-Ilan University. "For the Palestinians, the biggest settlement is Tel Aviv." "The desire to separate from the Palestinians is an illusion. They are dependent on us financially and security-wise. Without the IDF, the Fatah regime [the PA] would not survive. We disengaged from Gaza and we still provide them with electricity and water. They would die if we got out of the West Bank. Rockets would fall in Israel and the kingdom in Jordan would fall. Arab countries understand this. They pushed the Palestinian issue to the end of the line."
