Talkback
Title: WAQF not interested in meeting with officials Name: Gina City: State:
For those who believe the Palestinians are even remotely interested in dialogue: "Meanwhile, Lupolianski also invited Adnan Husseini, head of the Muslim Waqf, for a meeting following the tensions. Lupolianski said that the coexistence in Jerusalem can only be maintained through dialogue." "The Jerusalem municipality noted that while the Israeli government is the one responsible for the dig, Husseini prefers to handle his affairs with the municipality due to political reasons stemming from the waqf`s refusal to recognize Israeli sovereignty. Husseini has yet to respond to the invitation." from Ynet news.
