(Ha'aretz) - Gideon Alon Speaking to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Tuesday, Prime Minister Sharon noted that Attorney-General Elyakim Rubinstein had questioned Sharon's use of the term "occupation" at a meeting with Likud MKs on Monday, pointing out that the legal position adopted by all Israeli governments since 1967 is that the West Bank and Gaza are "disputed" territories rather than "occupied" territories. Rubinstein explained: "These are territories that belonged to no recognized sovereign power before 1967, and therefore the correct way to describe the situation in the territories in legal terms is as 'disputed territory,' whose status is to be determined through agreements." 2003-05-28 00:00:00Full Article
