Olmert vows to consult over West Bank pull-out
Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert today pledged to consult Israel’s citizens and the world about his plan to pull out of much of the West Bank, remove settlements and set his country’s borders within four years.
Olmert’s Kadima party is far ahead in the polls, and his two main opponents devoted the end of their campaigns to attacking Olmert and his plan, after declaring the vote a referendum on the future of Israel’s presence in the West Bank.
