Netanyahu in London to Celebrate Balfour and Talk Iran

(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flew to London on Wednesday to take part in centennial celebrations of the Balfour Declaration and to hold talks with Prime Minister Theresa May on the Iranian nuclear deal. Referring to Palestinian demands for an apology for the Balfour Declaration, Netanyahu said, "The Palestinians say that the Balfour Declaration was a tragedy. It wasn't a tragedy. What's been tragic is their refusal to accept this 100 years later. I hope they change their mind, because if they do, they can move forward finally to making peace between our two peoples."
