(Jerusalem Post) Lahav Harkov - The U.S. peace plan gives Israel "a historic opportunity to shape Israel's future and its borders for the coming decades," new Israeli Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi said on Monday. "The plan will be promoted responsibly and in coordination with the U.S., while maintaining the peace treaties and strategic interests of the State of Israel." Ashkenazi, a former IDF chief of staff, added, "The diplomatic battle to stop the Iranian threat was and still is our main mission." He sees the Foreign Ministry as an "inseparable part of the State of Israel's national security, and its people as fighters without uniforms."
