Opposition leader Shaul Mofaz (Kadima) told the The New York Times that he would "respond to 100% of the territorial demands of the Palestinians" if elected Prime Minister.
“I intend to replace Netanyahu,” Mr. Mofaz, 63, said. “I will not join his government.”
Mofaz said that he believed Israel should keep the main settlement blocs, but that he would give the Palestinian Authority as much land from sovereign Israeli ground as he kept from Judea and Samaria.
He added that he believes it is possible to reach an agreement on the borders and security within one year.
When asked about Israeli residents of Judea and Samaria living in communities he would cede to the Palestinian Authority, Mofaz said, "If they're given the right incentives they will leave their homes. Those who do not, we would have to evacuate [them]."
MK Uri Ariel (National Union) responded by saying "He proposes Palestinians be given 100% of the land with a swap, and those who do not leave voluntarily evacuated by force."
"This is a wildly radical program that undermines our security and will lead the State of Israel into one hundred years of conflict rather than one hundred years of peace," Ariel explained. "Mofaz should find another way of increasing his party's popularity without undermining Israel's security."
Yesha Council Chairman Danny Dayan said, "A man who will give the Palestinians 100% of what they demand in a territorial power play and evict tens of thousands of Israelis is unfit to be prime minister of Israel."
"But do not worry," Dayan said. "Kadima will not be chosen to lead the nation again."

Hopefully Mofaz just ended his chances.
I WISH the left in this country would be so explicit.
Obama will be throwing his punches above his weight behind this guy LOL
Let’s do nothing to disabuse them until after the election:-)
Do these people learn anything? Do fact even matter to them?
It should be obvious that any agreements with Arabs (Muslims) are close to worthless. Look at what is happening with Egypt. Even if you have a genuine “partner” for Peace (as Israel did with Sadat and Mubarek), things change very quickly once that partner goes away.
Any agreement with the PA is worthless from the gitgo. The Palestinian leadership has even said as much. The consider it a phase in a larger struggle to eradicate Israel.
Dayan: Mister, I’m gonna kick one hundred percent of your ass!
They’ve always demanded the whole nation.
Does he realize that means all of Israel?
I think he's actually damned, like pharaoh, with no choice.
His ist year anniversary party will be held in New York City, in exile.

He’s developed Stockholm Syndrome, IMHO..
Does this guy ever attempt to address this?
