Netanyahu would take more land from the Palestinians regardless of what the people in D.C or the world think.

JERUSALEM – The front-runner in Israel’s election said in an interview published Monday that he would let Jewish settlements expand in the West Bank if he’s elected prime minister, threatening to put him at odds with the “Obama administration”.

Netanyahu, who is already a critic of U.S.-sponsored peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians, was quoted by the Haaretz daily as saying he would allow the Jewish settlements to expand to accommodate “natural growth” — building new housing to accommodate growing families among the settlers.

Such growth, however, is ruled out in the internationally backed “road map” peace plan that serves as the basis for negotiations.
