Pakistani political and religious leader Maulana Muhammad Khan Sherani announced Saturday at a conference that he supports the normalization of his country with Israel, according to a report by British-Pakistani writer Noor Dahri.
"This is an international issue, I support recognition of Israel," Sherani said. "Educated Muslims need to understand that the Quran and history prove to us that the Land of Israel belongs only to the Jews. King David built the house of God in Jerusalem for the Israelis and not for the Palestinians."
