Also participating in the meeting were the Prime Minister's envoy Isaac
Molcho and, from Women Wage Peace, Judge (retired) Saviona Rotali, Amel
Reihan Abu-Ramadan and Eilat Harel.

The women told Prime Minister Netanyahu about why their movement was
established, following Operation Protective Edge, and asked him to initiate
and lead a process for an agreement with the Palestinians. Women Wage Peace
currently includes women from all sectors, political views and religions.

Prime Minister Netanyahu expressed his desire to return to the negotiating
table and said, "I have no preconditions for negotiations. I am ready now to
go to Ramallah or any other place in order to meet and hold direct
negotiations without preconditions. We want to conduct negotiations with the
Palestinians. The solution is two states for two peoples – a demilitarized
Palestinian state that recognizes the national state of the Jewish People.
If you intend to meet with Abu Mazen, tell him that I am ready to meet if he
is."
