The Associated Press: Report: Abbas reiterates refusal to recognize Israel as 'Jewish state'
Talkback
Title: Isreal Is Already A Jewish State Name: Moshe City: TA State:
It seems we will do anything to block peace. Now, we want Abbas to say we are a Jewish state. Why? Israel is and has been for 60 years a Jewish state. The real issue is the refugee question. As long as we can reach an agreement that does not involve open-ended right of return who cares what the Palestinians or others call us. The name of our country is Israel not the Jewish State of Israel.
