Netanyahu Pledges Commitment to Peace in Meeting with U.S. Envoy
(CNN-Israel Prime Minister's Office) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told U.S. special Mideast envoy George Mitchell Wednesday that he is committed to reaching a peace agreement with Palestinians. Netanyahu told Mitchell: "There are many skeptics, many doubts and there are many obstacles on the road to peace. There is one way to prove them right - that's not to try. We're committed, and I'm committed, to try to get to a peace agreement that will secure Israel's security and other vital national interests. That's my goal, and that's our policy and we will continue to pursue it and I very much look forward to continuing it with Abu Mazen [Abbas]."
