Former French President Sarkozy Opposes Palestine Recognition
(International Business Times-UK) Jack Moore - Former French Prime Minister Nicolas Sarkozy has condemned the upcoming French vote on the recognition of Palestine in the French parliament on Dec. 2. He told members of his UMP party that they should reject the resolution in light of the "heinous and bloody" killing of five Israelis at a Jerusalem synagogue last week. "I will fight for the Palestinians to have their state. But unilateral recognition a few days after a deadly attack and when there is no peace process? No!"
