(AP) Don Melvin and Slobodan Lekic - EU foreign ministers said Monday they were "deeply dismayed" by Israeli plans to build thousands of new homes in Jerusalem and the West Bank, and warned Israel of unspecified consequences if it goes through with the plans. "The EU will closely monitor the situation and its broader implications and act accordingly," the ministers said. Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said: "Facts and history both prove that Jewish settlement never constituted an obstacle to peace. Therefore, the EU's focus on this issue is mistaken." Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also decried what he saw as a double-standard. "We cannot accept that when Jews build homes in their ancient capital, Jerusalem, the international community has no problem finding its voice, but when Palestinian leaders openly call for the destruction of Israel, the one and only Jewish state, the world is silent," Netanyahu said Monday.2012-12-26 00:00:00Full Article
