The chairman of the Yesha Council, Danny Dayan, told Arutz Sheva Wednesday that the discussion of whether or not Jerusalem was being negotiated over with the PA was itself "a farce." Dayan contended that the question of Jerusalem had come up much earlier than the present negotiations, and even before the Annapolis conference.

"Olmert and Ramon reached agreement with the Palestinians about dividing Jerusalem according to the Clinton blueprint 'plus,' including ceding the sites most holy to us," Dayan said. "This negotiation process is being continued today in both public and secret channels," he explained.
