Deputy PM: Israel Officials Doubt Peace Reachable
(AP) Amy Teibel - Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon said Tuesday that top officials doubt a peace deal with the Palestinians can be reached soon even though the prime minister has committed to try to reach an agreement within a year. "I don't know a single minister in the septet who thinks it's possible to reach a deal in the foreseeable future," he said, referring to the seven-member decision-making body in the Cabinet. Yaalon, speaking to Army Radio, accused the Palestinians of being intransigent and of carrying out repeated violence and incitement since 1993, when the two sides signed their first, interim peace accord.
