Israeli PM sees no end to settlements

Zionist regime's Prime Minister Ehud Olmert signaled in a Japanese television interview broadcast on Monday that construction of expansionist settlements in the occupied territories would not be stopped.

Olmert, who arrived in Japan later in the day for a three-day visit, expressed his unwillingness to freeze construction of new homes amid the latest development in an east Al-Quds settlement.

The occupying regime began constructing 66 new homes last month in the Ras al-Amud area of east Al-Quds which it occupied and annexed in the 1967 war.
