Israeli PM Says Jerusalem Settlements Justified

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (neh-ten-YAH'-hoo) says he will not accept Palestinian demands that Israel stop building settlements in East Jerusalem.

Appearing in an interview broadcast Monday on ABC's ''Good Morning America,'' Netanyahu called that ''an unacceptable demand'' and said this long-standing Israeli government position is not his alone, but that it dates to governments led by Golda Meir, Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin.

Netanyahu sought to minimize differences with President Barack Obama over the Mideast peace process. But he acknowledged that ''we have some outstanding issues. We're trying to resolve them through diplomatic channels in the best way that we can.''

1. what a fucked up little country.
at least, the leadership of the country.

Same ol' same ol', liberals versus conservatives. Conservatives fuck everything up, no matter what made up language they speak.
