Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said again last night that he accepts a Palestinian state. In the framework of a permanent agreement, Sharon told Channel Two television, there is no alternative other than the establishment of such an entity. Regarding the future of Jewish communities in Yesha, the Prime Minister said that the topic would be a matter for negotiations. Two years ago, when running for Prime Minister against Ehud Barak, Sharon told Arutz-7 in no uncertain terms, "No community in Yesha will be dismantled."
