US wants Israel to cancel Jerusalem building plan

JERUSALEM (AP) - The Obama administration is demanding that Israel call off
a contentious building project in east Jerusalem and make a public gesture
toward the Palestinians to help defuse one of the worst U.S.-Israeli feuds
in memory, officials on both sides said Monday.

But Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed little sign of yielding, saying
Jewish construction in east Jerusalem "in no way" hurts Palestinians. A
Jerusalem city spokesman suggested Jewish building there would continue.

Announcement of the plan to build 1,600 apartments for Jews in the Ramot
Shlomo neighborhood came during Vice President Joe Biden's visit last week,
embarrassing him and the Obama administration, angering Palestinians and
endangering the start of indirect peace negotiations that are to be mediated
by a U.S. envoy.
