(Worthy News) – A push to move the GOP to the right on Israel scored a preliminary victory Monday in Cleveland.
Delegates drafting the Republican National Convention platform approved removing language encouraging a two-state solution for Israelis and Palestinians.
An earlier draft had included support for “two democratic states” — the policy of recent Republican and Democratic administrations — but had removed a reference to Palestine included in the GOP platform four years ago. [ Source ]
