Netanyahu: No peace until Palestinians accept Israel as Jewish state

By Natasha Mozgovaya, Haaretz Correspondent and Haaretz Service

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Haaretz on Wednesday that he would not agree to a Palestinian demand that Israel accept the 1967 borders as a condition for renewing peace negotiations.

Netanyahu also gave a condition of his own, saying Thursday that he would never drop his demand that the Palestinians recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

"I told Abu Mazen [Abbas] I believe peace hinges first on his readiness to stand before his people and say, 'We ... are committed to recognizing Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people'," Netanyahu said.

"I will not drop this subject and other important issues under any final peace agreement," Netanyahu said.

The islamics will never accept Israel as a Jewish state so that means the only one who can solve the Middle East problem is the Lord himself. And when he returns he will rule with an iron rod from the throne of David.

That's all of it, right there. I agree totally.
