In a speech in Washington Monday, May 23, at the annual meeting of the main pro-Israel lobby in the United States, the American IsraelPublic Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu assured: "[Peace] is guarantee security for Israel and thus Israel can return to indefensible borders of 1967 "while President Barack Obama spoke out Sunday for a Palestinian state based on a revision of borders from the war Six Days.
Mr. Netanyahu must address Tuesday to the U.S. Congress. "I will present a vision for a secure Israeli-Palestinian peace," he said to AIPAC. Despite the recent public disagreement between the two men, he added that Obama had shown a commitment to "iron" for the security of Israel, and thanked the U.S.
president to fund the advanced system to intercept Israeli missiles. Several protesters interrupted the speech by the leader of the Israeli government, saying "unacceptable" the negation of the Palestinian situation. But their voices were quickly covered by the cheers of the audience, while the demonstrators were led out of the building by security services.
Mr. Netanyahu has again asked the Palestinians to recognize Israel as a Jewish state. They argue that it would waive the right of return for Palestinian refugees. The Israeli prime minister can count on support from members of Congress, where elected officials who stand up for Palestinians are few.
"The question of support for Israel does not divide America. It unites young and old, liberal and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans," said Mr. Netanyahu to AIPAC. AIPAC, which claims some 100,000 members, forms the largest group of pro-Israel influence in the United States. Its annual forum is a major political event, which is urging the leaders of both major American parties, but Israeli officials.
The day of his arrival in the U.S. capital, on May 20, Mr. Netanyahu had curtly dismissed the opinion of Bush, who had voted for the establishment of a Palestinian state based on the revised boundaries of 1967. In an unprecedented staging, Mr. Netanyahu did not hesitate to make the lesson to Barack Obama told reporters stunned, right in the Oval Office.
Sunday, before AIPAC, Barack Obama had persisted and signed, explaining his position and referring to the misinterpretation of his remarks. In the process, Netanyahu said he was inclined to cooperate with the U.S. president "to renew peace negotiations."
