Israeli Opposition Leader Herzog: PA Should Recognize Israel as Jewish State

(Maariv-Hebrew, 7Feb2014) Zev Kam - Opposition leader and Labor Party chairman Yitzhak Herzog said in an interview Friday: "I think that the demand for the Palestinians to recognize Israel as the Jewish homeland as part of a final agreement is correct and I support it." "The basis for this request is in the (UN) Partition Plan, which would have seen two states - one of them a Jewish state."
