Feb 2012: Anwar Ibrahim told the Wall Steet Journal (WSJ) in an interview that he supported “all efforts to protect the security of the state of Israel.” But the newspaper said Anwar stopped short of saying he would open diplomatic ties with the Jewish state, a step the former deputy prime minister said remains contingent on Israel respecting the aspirations of Palestinians. He had come under heavy fire from Umno before the PAS Ulama Council also demanded a retraction. Anwar had to explain to Nik Aziz and Tok Gugu “listened to what I had to say well” when asked if the PAS spiritual leader accepted his stand on the matter. “Tok Guru listened... PAS’s stand is different. They do not accept any terms of negotiations with Israel,” the former deputy prime minister told reporters this morning. --- - See more at: themalaysianinsider/malaysia/article/anwar-explains-support-for-israel-to-nik-aziz#sthash.gORRdVRZ.dpuf
