Meretz: Government exploiting attacks to build in Jerusalem
Meretz leader Zehava Galon lashes out at the government’s plans to build more Jewish homes in East Jerusalem, accusing ministers of exploiting the current spate of terror attacks in order to advance their construction policies.
“The government is taking cynical advantage of the recent terror attacks to continue building,” she says, according to Channel 2.
“There is no symmetry between us as sovereigns and the Palestinians in the territories and the construction will not curtail the motivation for terror.”
