PA: Israeli e. J'lem building plans foils peace efforts
By KHALED ABU TOAMEH
The Palestinian Authority warned Tuesday that recent Israeli plans to build new housing projects in Jerusalem would undermine the two-state solution and foil international efforts to reach a just and comprehensive peace in the region.Nabil Abu Rudaineh, spokesman for the PA presidency, said that the Israeli government's plans would eventually lead to a one state solution.He said that the "State of Palestine would take all available measures to respond to the Israeli plans, which are a red line that the Palestinians won't allow to be implemented."Abu Rudaineh also condemned Israel's decision to withhold tax and customs revenues belonging to the PA as a "criminal and aggressive act." He said that Israel would have to bear the consequences of its actions.
