Statements by Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom
Jerusalem, March 20, 2003
The following statements were made by Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom during the course of a meeting of the Foreign Ministry's Iraq Task Force, which took place this morning (20 March) after the US announcement of the commencement of the campaign against Iraq:
Israel stands together with the American people and their allies in their campaign to destroy the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
We hope that the war will be swift and that the number of casualties will be minimal.
Israel is not a party to this war, and hopes that there will be no change in this regard. We will continue to closely monitor all developments as they unfold.
