"This is a dramatic decision made in a snap without examining its consequences," Tal said.
The Blue and White faction on the board of the JNF believes that such a hasty move is wrong, both materially and procedurally.
This is an issue with security significance and an impact on the international status of the State of Israel.
There is a move concretely toward unilateral annexation, in violation of the Israeli commitment within the framework of the peace agreements last. "
Tal added that the move is particularly problematic because of the sensitive period in relations between Israel and the United States and Europe."
