Ya'alon: If Israel Leaves West Bank, PA, Jordan Will Collapse
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - Former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon said Wednesday that there is no Palestinian leadership today prepared to offer recognition of the Jewish nation-state in "any borders." Both Hamas and the PLO seek a Palestinian entity "from the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea....When the Palestinians say 'occupation,' they mean from 1948, not 1967." He warned against "deluding ourselves, and saying that another agreement or withdrawal will improve our security-diplomatic situation."
