Israeli playwright Yehoshua Sobol: "I was wrong", slams opponents of war

Aaron Lerner Date: 28 July 2006

Israeli playwright Yehoshua Sobol, who until now was identified with the
Israeli Left, has come out on recent days saying publicly in various radio
interviews "I was wrong when I thought that withdrawing to border lines
would bring peace."

Today Sobol went another step and in an interview on Army Radio this
afternoon he slammed Israelis who call for an immediate cease-fire.

"Anyone who supports an immediate cease-fire is essentially supporting
Hezbollah and it is beyond me how anyone from the Left can come out
supporting such a group," Sobol explained.
