Amb. Friedman on U.S. Peace Plan: No Jew or Arab Will Be Forced to Leave Their Home
(Times of Israel) Raphael Ahren - "Having seen the experience of the evacuation of Gaza [in 2005], I don't believe that there is a realistic plan that can be implemented that would require anyone - Jew or Arab - to be forced to leave their home. We think that's just a recipe for disaster," U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman said Wednesday in an interview. "So we are not of the view that any forced evacuations are achievable." Friedman called uprooting settlers "an inhumane process....I think it's failed policy and it's not something we would advance."
