Peres to EU: Condemn Terror, Not Settlements
(Times of Israel) Joshua Davidovich - Israeli President Shimon Peres pushed back against recent EU condemnation of Israeli settlements Wednesday, saying terror, not construction, was the real obstacle to peace. "The EU can help us in putting an end to terror by condemning Hamas because they are the center of terror, the same for Hizbullah," he said in Brussels. "I don't take this criticism, that, because of the settlements, we lost the chance of implementing the two-state solution."
