In his remarks he praised the democratic nature of the uprisings and contrasted the revolutionary sentiment with the terrorism of al-Qaida, and pledged moral and economic development support to assist the people of the region. He also called for a solution to the impasse in negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, specifically calling for a recognition of a sovereign Palestine along the 1967 borders. He remarked, "the status quo is unsustainable, and Israel too must act boldly to advance a lasting peace," and that "Palestinians will never realize their independence by denying the right of Israel to exist." http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/299606-1 info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation) http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/299606-1 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT
