JPost.com Staff , THE JERUSALEM POST
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has offered the Palestinians 64 percent of
the West Bank as part of a future peace agreement, London-based Asharq
Al-Awsat reported Wednesday.
According to the report, Olmert told PA President Mahmoud Abbas that
the Palestinians could "forget about territory west of the security
fence."
The prime minister also presented Abbas with several offers regarding
Jerusalem. One of these would have Israel maintaining control over east
Jerusalem and holy sites, but allowing Palestinians to enter those
sites.
On Tuesday, Shas upped its threat to leave Olmert's government over the
Jerusalem issue, with the party's no. 2 - Religious Services Minister
Yitzhak Cohen - saying that even "creating an atmosphere" that could
lead to Jerusalem's division was a red line for the party.
