Sharon's Peace Plan


(Newsweek) Lally Weymouth - Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told Newsweek: "First, Arafat should be removed from an influential position. Secondly, a prime minister should be appointed. Third, reforms should be undertaken, mostly in the security organizations. Then there are problems on the financial side; our estimate of Arafat's property is about $2 billion. Once the reforms have been completed, there should be free and democratic elections....I am ready, if they have taken steps against terror, to recognize a fully demilitarized Palestinian state without final borders - having only police equipped with light weapons. Israel will control the external borders and will have the right to fly over the territory. Now we come to phase three: if there's no terror whatsoever, then we will have to decide about the final borders."
