Peres should be sacked, says cabinet minister
Police sent reinforcements into Jerusalem today for the start of the holy month of Ramadan, while a hard-line Israeli Cabinet minister said Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s offer of a Palestinian state was not serious.
Environment Minister Tsachi Hanegbi said Foreign Minister Shimon Peres should be fired for telling the UN General Assembly in yesterday that in Israel, ‘‘there is support for a Palestinian independence, support for a Palestinian state".
