Landau Concerned Over Plans to Hand Over Old City

Dr. Uzi Landau commenting on statements made by Otniel Schneller, who stated Israel can give away areas of the eastern capital to become part of a Palestinian state, expressed grave concerns.

According to Landau, plans to hand over portions of the eastern capital, predominately Arab neighborhoods, to the Palestinian Authority (PA), are intended to lay the groundwork for Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Shimon Peres to hand over the Temple Mount and the Old City to Hamas.

Landau spoke of “Olmert’s and Peres’ political and security stupidity, which will compromise the security of the city’s residents and expose them to terror attacks from Hamas troops that will be stationed along the walls of the Old City.”
