Benjamin Netanyahu: Jerusalem is not a Settlement - It Is Our Capital Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu challenged US Secretary of State Hillary Clintons strong anti-united Jerusalem stand and told a cheering American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) crowd Monday night, "Jerusalem is not a settlement; its our capital." He pointed out that Israel has made constant to the concessions to the United States and Palestinian Authority but drew the red line at Jerusalem, reasoning that building houses for Jews in all of united Jerusalem in no way precludes the possibility of a two-state solution." More than half of the American Congressmen were among the more than 7000 people listening to the speech at the annual conference of the pro-Israel lobby group in Washington. The speech was delayed in order to allow people to enter the packed convention hall. The Prime Minister spoke several hours after Secretary Clinton charged that Israels building in parts of Jerusalem that the United States does not recognize as being under Israeli sovereignty undermines US policy.
