Israel's Sharon Brings Concerns to Moscow
AP reports, "Israeli officials said Sharon would raise objections to a Russian initiative to seek a U.N. Security Council endorsement of the 'road map' Mideast peace plan, which the United States also opposes. Israel only reluctantly accepted the U.S-backed plan, which aims to end violence and establish a Palestinian state by 2005. The Israeli government has attached a list of reservations to the proposal, making its implementation dependent on a Palestinian crackdown on militant groups and stipulating that any monitoring be under U.S. control. Israel sees the United Nations as a hostile forum and officials say that deepening its involvement would hinder, rather than help, peace efforts." :: Submitted for your Covenant With Many (Daniel 9:27) files on the search for Mideast peace and your Ten Kings (Rev 17:12-14) files on the U.N. Security Council.
