Professors for a Strong Israel

Statement to the Press - 29 May 1999


Re: For enlargement of Ma'aleh Adumim

Professors for a Strong Israel calls upon the Prime Minister elect to obey the principle of continuity in government policy, and thus to carry out the decisions made by the previous governments regarding the enlargement of Ma'aleh Adumim and the establishment of the vital territorial connection between Ma'aleh Adumim and Jerusalem. We warn Ehud Barak against yielding to the demands of the left wing extremists as stated by Yossi Beilin and Yossi Sarid.

We recall that Beilin is the person who drew the State of Israel and the late Yitzhak Rabin into the Oslo trap and who conducted a personal and independent foreign policy, bypassing democratically elected Prime Ministers. Amazingly, he failed to leave the political scene as expected after his colossal, bloody failure. We urge Ehud Barak, who promised not to yield to extremists, to take these facts into consideration when choosing the members of his government.
