Fury as Israeli MP openly calls for apartheid

AS PEOPLE around the world mark Israeli Apartheid Week, MP Miki Zohar of Israel’s ruling party said the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is “dead” — and that Israel must impose apartheid on the Palestinian people.

Following Mr Zohar’s comments in a Sunday TV interview, Israeli Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman said yesterday that the US had warned Tel Aviv against annexing the occupied West Bank.

He said he had received phone calls “from the entire world” demanding an explanation after Mr Zohar, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party, called for a one-state solution in which Palestinians would have no parliamentary representation.
