Olmert: Jerusalem, Settlement Blocs to Keep Growing
[Ha'aretz] Barak Ravid - Israel will continue building in existing settlement blocs and Jerusalem, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations in Jerusalem on Sunday. "Jerusalem holds a special place and in its Jewish areas reality on the ground will change in the coming years," said Olmert, a former mayor of the capital. Olmert also said he would not allow a humanitarian crisis to develop in Gaza, but the people of Gaza could not live normal lives while Israelis across the border were constantly targeted by rockets.
