Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely welcomed the security cabinet decision not to conduct negotiations with the Palestinians as long as they are in collusion with the Hamas terror organization.
"The Palestinian Authority chooses terror over peace and there is a price for that. It's impossible to continue their duplicitous game, trying to attain international legitimacy and membership in international organizations while embracing a murderous terror group. The world must understand that Palestinian partnership with Hamas is not merely politics but support of a struggle against Israel's very existence."
