Bennett: Israel mustn’t negotiate with reconciled Palestinian ‘terrorists’
Ahead of a cabinet meeting to discuss the reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas, Jewish Home party head Naftali Bennett says the agreement has made the Palestinian Authority a terrorist entity.
“Hamas has signed a reconciliation agreement with the PA in order to whitewash itself and enjoy legitimacy, all while gaining strength against us,” the education minister says, according to Channel 2.
“A Palestinian government basing itself on Hamas becomes a terrorist unity government. Israel must not fold and negotiate with it.”
