Israel: Sovereignty Won't Include Areas with Large Palestinian Populations
(Jewish News-UK) Any extension of Israeli sovereignty in the West Bank would not extend to areas with large Palestinian populations, Israel's Ambassador to the UK Mark Regev told the Board of Deputies of British Jews on Sunday. "I think the goal of the [Israeli] government, and of the American plan, is not to incorporate into Israel any area where there is a large Palestinian population," he said, adding that the Jordan Valley was largely unpopulated.
