Netanyahu: UN Can't Force Israel to Compromise on Security
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that regardless of how many vote against Israel at the UN on Thursday, "no force in the world will get me to compromise on Israel's security." He also said no force in the world can sever the thousands-year-old tie between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel. Netanyahu said the UN decision will "not change anything on the ground. It will not further the establishment of a Palestinian state, but will make it more distant." "Israel's hand is always extended in peace, but a Palestinian state will not be established without recognition of the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish people, without an end-of-conflict declaration, and without true security arrangements that will protect Israel and its citizens."
