PM backs 'demilitarised Palestinian state’, offers few concessions

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday for the first time endorsed the creation of a Palestinian state, saying such an entity would have to be demilitarised and recognise Israel as a home of the Jewish people."If we have the guarantees on demilitarisation and if the Palestinians recognise Israel as a state of the Jewish people, then we arrive at a solution based on a demilitarised Palestinian state alongside Israel," he said."Each will have its flag, each will have its anthem," he said. "The Palestinian territory will be without arms, will not control airspace, will not be able to have arms enter."
