“If the American president would have really wanted Israel to disassemble the illegal outposts, he would have done better to stay in the White House and tend to his citizens’ medical insurance,” Yehoshua wrote in response to Bush’s recent visit to the Middle East. “He should have recalled his ambassador to Tel Aviv (Richard Jones) for an indefinite period until the outposts were evacuated.
“I can guarantee you that had he acted in this manner, Israel would have promptly dismantled the outposts, and the US administration would thus cement the faith of the Israelis and the Palestinians in the peace process,” he said in the op-ed.
Yehoshua added that Israel was deceiving the international community into focusing solely on the illegal outposts. – LINK
