Ya’alon: The conflict with the Palestinians will never be resolved

“The conflict with the Palestinian Arabs will never be solved,” Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Ya’alon has warned.

Speaking at the World WIZO conference in Tel Aviv, Ya’alon said: “Due to our success in preventing mass casualty terrorist attacks, our enemies are employing attacks by individuals. So as long as the Palestinian Arabs continue to incite their children against Israel, the conflict with the Palestinian Arabs will never be solved.”

“Hezbollah is indeed operating in Judea and Samaria, as do other terrorist groups such as the Islamic Jihad; they are all metastases of Iran. Hezbollah, via Iran, is trying to lure Palestinians and Israeli Arabs to carry out terror attacks within Israel.”

“The Marmara is an expression of the spirit among some members of the international community who are acting against Israel. The propaganda war is very difficult because it is driven by widespread anti-Semitism and delegitimisation of Israel, and so it is hard to fight it,” he added.
