HELSINKI – “What I concluded with the Americans is that we don’t deal with some of the settlements until the Palestinians become Finns – we got a `Nobody to talk to’ document that will only be revoked when Palestine is Finland.”

Palestine, Palestine, if only it were Finland. The Finns don’t know about that wish, expressed by Dov Weisglass in an interview with Ari Shavit, and which has become a classic in Israel.

Read the whole article from Haaretz – Israel News…

    Oh great. I thought we’d come over Finlandization.

  • Antti (the red neck one)

    Yeah, right. It would have been nice to see, how the Isreali’s would have coped with our neighbours all these years. If they want to finlandize the Palestine, they could begin by occupying just 10% of her territory. That is, if the reference was made to the history finnish-russian relationships.
