Netanyahu Shrugs off Worldwide Criticism
The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has brushed aside international anger over the expansion of Jewish neighbourhoods in east Jerusalem by defining the new plans as ''standard procedure''.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (C) listens to a navy officer during a visit to a naval vessel off the coast of the northern Israeli city of Haifa.
(AFP/Pool/Pavel Wolberg) On
Tuesday the Jerusalem municipality approved the construction of another
900 housing units in Gilo, which is built on land annexed by Israel
after the 1967 Six-Day War and is regarded as an illegal settlement by
the United Nations.
''There is nothing new in the planning procedures,'' a spokesman for Mr Netanyahu said. ''Gilo is a part of Jerusalem, just like Rehavia, Pisgat Zeev and Ramot Eshkol.''
South of Jerusalem's centre, Gilo is home to 40,000 Jewish residents and completes a ring of Jewish neighbourhoods through east Jerusalem that Palestinians say prevents the eastern side of the city from becoming a future capital of a Palestinian state.
The new construction plans raised the ire of the US, Britain and the UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon.
The State Department spokesman, Ian Kelly, gave voice to US exasperation: ''We find the Jerusalem planning committee decision to move forward the approval process for the expansion of Gilo, in Jerusalem, as dismaying.''
The White House went further and reprimanded Israel on other activities. ''The US also objects to other Israeli practices in Jerusalem related to housing, including the continuing pattern of evictions and demolitions of Palestinian homes. Our position is clear: the status of Jerusalem is a permanent status issue that must be resolved through negotiations between the parties,'' the White House spokesman, Robert Gibbs, said.
Diplomatic sources said Israeli officials ignored a request on Monday by President Barack Obama's envoy, George Mitchell, to halt the Gilo decision. Mr Ban also issued a tersely worded statement, deploring the Israeli Government's decision on the Gilo settlement.
''The Secretary-General reiterates his position that settlements are illegal, and calls on Israel to respect its commitments under the road map to cease all settlement activity, including natural growth,'' a statement issued by his office said, referring to the peace plan that foresees two states living side by side.
Since he was sworn into office in January, a key plank of Mr Obama's strategy to restart peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians has been to demand that Israel cease all settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem.
Israel has repeatedly refused to consider a construction freeze of any kind in east Jerusalem, offering instead to impose a construction pause in the West Bank during the resumption of future negotiations with the Palestinians.
Despite its ostensibly tough stance, the Obama Administration has sent mixed signals.
Last month the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, praised Mr Netanyahu's offer as ''unprecedented''. But in the face of a furious response across the Arab world, and the announcement by the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, that he would quit politics, Mr Obama has renewed his insistence that Israel halt all settlement construction.
In Israel's biggest selling newspaper, Yedioth Ahronoth, yesterday the columnist Shimon Shiffer wrote that the latest statement from the White House indicated that the ''Obama Administration has decided to change the rules of the game and not to behave like other US administrations in the past''.
Mr Mitchell ''has been trying for some time to persuade Israel that it is not enough to declare twice a day its desire to renew negotiations,'' the columnist wrote, adding: ''Israel, say the Americans, has to change its mode of conduct in so far as it pertains to construction in the territories.''

Show AllBoat, they've ben Netanyahus for 60 years!
Settlements! Come on all ditto-heads, SETTLEMENTS!
That says it all! If there is any doubt that Israel is stealing land from the Palestinian people it's that, THEY BUILD SETTLEMENTS ON LAND BELONGING TO PALESTINIANS!
Sending Jews to Auschwitz-Birkenau was "standard procedure" for the Nazis..didn't make it any less criminal though.
"Our position is clear: the status of Jerusalem is a permanent status issue that must be resolved through negotiations between the parties,'' the White House spokesman, Robert Gibbs, said.
Resolved through negotiations? Just like in Honduras?
What do the critics matter, after all the money and bombs are still coming from the usa. Like the old crusader states in the region Israel will last as long as the money, the weapons and the soldiers are available. But at least the Israeli's aren't eating their enemies, like the Christian Crusaders did at Acre.
Saturnalia says: "But at least the Israelis aren't eating their enemies, like the Christian Crusaders did at Acre."
To the extent that "eating" means taking part of another's body into your own body, they are in fact doing so. They are killing healthy young Palestinians and stealing their organs for transplants. See:

Israeli Organ Harvesting—The New "Blood Libel"?
http://www.counterpunch.org/weir08282009.html
Well, that story has been debunked. It's an urban myth.
Even if it were true, it's still not cannibalism. The crusaders cooked their enemies and ate them, FWIW I think that's just a bit more evil than harvesting organs from the dead (even if the dead aren't willing to have their organs harvested.).
This story has decidedly NOT been debunked, and there is a lot of evidence to corroborate it. Apparently you take naked denial as proof. I suggest you take off your rose-colored glasses when looking at Israel.
I'm not one of those who wears such glasses. Tell me, is there a waiting list for transplant surgery in Israel? If there is then this story has no merit. Funny how if you utter one point that doesn't condemn Israel you're a hasberist, eh? Look up other things I've written about Israel and then try to argue that I'm wearing silly glasses.
Recently, once again feeling exasperation at the crushing density of U.S. support for these acts of aggression by the Israeli government, I looked into the history of the jewish people.
I think I now see where this arrogance and aggression is coming from. Please do not interpret this as being an attempt at justification. It is not.
It seems, that in the multiple milleniums of jewish history, there has been a near constant series of attacks - in a wide range of locations and techniques - against the jews. From the Egyptian Pharoahs to the Romans to the Christians (seemingly within every European Imperialist agenda - the French, Spanish, English, Belgian.......) to the Muslims to the Communists to the Nazis to the present. Most of these attacks involved isolating the jews physically and socially and some were more vicious than others.
The one thing that is consistent in jewish persecution is that all of these empires used FORCE to take property and valuables (often through outright specifically prejudicial laws) from the jewish people.
After thousands and thousands of years of this sort of treatment from almost every place the jews tried to live, it seems the Nazis and the Fascists were the final straw.
In the aftermath of World War II, a movement within the jewish community, which had started unevenly organizing at the end of the 19th Century, had determined that they would go back to where they had begun and they would follow the techniques which had been (and still are being) used by every land grabbing empire they had seen come and go for these thousands of years.
So, here we are, watching one of the newest nations on earth follow through with what all of these arrogant, greedy, oppressive nations have shown them is the way to survive and even grow.
The absolute worst aspect of all of this abusive history is the timing and the way that the United States of America, for its own very devious, imperialistic, calculating, energy greedy purposes, is encouraging this horrible, milleniums old behavior to AGAIN be the favored method of statehood.
The three "great" western religions which claim Jerusalem are equally fraudulent in their claims as long as they allow this separation of people to continue.
So by your logic, if wrong is done to you, you may wrong others...
If you READ what I wrote, I specifically stated my comment is NOT a justification. In a way, it is a condemnation of the brutality which is the basis of most imperialistic "states" and the FACT that Israel has chosen to use arrogance and aggression as its main means of existence is rather proof that they are as fraudulent as all the empires which previously had abused the jews.
AND, I specifically singled out the role the U.S.A. and all three Abrahamic religions as especially complicit in this fraud of a "Holy Land".
nimblehuman, did you accidently skip past "Please do not interpret this as being an attempt at justification. It is not."?
I'm usually the last one to think of shorter ways to say something, but "Birdbrain Alley..." is independently echoing a reliable insight into the tragic history of the state of Israel: they became what they beheld.
This tragic truth is invisible to one inhabited by the Zionist mind-set, whether one is a member of the reactionary Israeli government, IDF, or a hasbarist comments-forum troll.
From the outside, it's obvious. Or, as birdbrain shows, it's readily discernible after one takes a good look at history.
The lapidary "Never Again!", when incorporated as a bedrock rationale in establishing a Homeland and State in territory already occupied by others, morphs into "Now It's OUR Turn!". And one might accurately tack on the cliché from violent "action" movie blockbusters: "... and THIS TIME, it's PERSONAL!"

"...the state of Israel: they became what they beheld." –(Obedient Servant)
–Correct.
Israel has succeeded in so exigently 'internalizing' the Nazi holocaust as a normative psychic construct it cannot be expiated–without ceasing to exist– as both material organism and spirit.
It can only proceed to 'externalize' this now indelible legacy with an outward vengeance that the larger humanity can no longer afford.
This 'mirroring effect' is the result of a 'finished' or reconciled interior dialectic, where what was formally 'the other' is subsumed into 'the one.'
Israel is haunted by what cannot be exorcised as it would be tantamount to suicide or a psychic immolation.
My version of 'pop' psycho-historical analysis is not new nor particularly well said.
The point is to end the terror of the Israeli state. What must be ended is Israel as both 'metaphor' and as a political entity. Its ever iterating misery is too ghastly to be allowed to continue the sufferings which it projects endlessly outward.
When one looks too deeply into the abyss, one becomes the abyss. The abyss no longer merely peers out, but the two have become one.
The situation can no longer elicit pity as all sympathy has been exhausted. Monsters are dealt with as monsters, irregardless of their provenance or their historical travails.

YOS You are held in greatest esteem --- a virtual Obi Wan Kanobi. Between you, BBA above, and JB below in this series there is much insight and much wisdom explaining cause and effect. However, I believe one must ask why they have historically been persecuted, and I see no avenue around the conclusion that it is due to their self inflicted "Chosenness". Were it not for that, with all of their very real virtues and abilities, they might well show "the way" to the rest of us. Without the unneeded explanation as to why this is so, it seems to be so. Jb's last paragraph below is operative. It will not end well. dh
That expression on his face says it all. I wonder if he has been to the West Bank and really seen a destitute Palestinian family watching their house being torn down.
"I wonder if he has been to the west bank......."? yes, I'm sure he has, but in that photo he was wearing a smile.
He looks like a gargoyle in this photo, but that would be a compliment as gargoyles were supposed to ward off evil spirits. Denial, the justification provided by a supreme historic victimhood and the dehumanization of the Palestinian people enable the continuing mass psychosis of the Zionist state. American money and arms enable its barbaric aggression, its war crimes, its absolute impunity in the face of violations of international law. (European tacit acceptance doesn't help either with that neoliberal twit war criminal Tony Blair the new Quartet rep.) The brutal, illegal, humiliating military occupation and settler movement have been going on now for 42 years. 42 years. State-sponsored Israeli terrorism by one of the most powerful armies in the world against a defenseless people without any army (at this point of course almost without basic necessities) has reached its 61st anniversary. The awesomely courageous Israeli journalist Amira Haas, daughter of 2 survivors of Bergen-Belsen, related that her father once noted that the Holocaust, for all its unspeakable horror, did end after several years, while the Occupation of Palestine spanned decades, yet to end.
Actually, Nit-and-yahoo looks remarkably like Mussolini in the photo. But I would say that "Bibi" is in many ways worse than Benito. For despite the anti-Semitic "racial laws" passed in Italy in 1938, the real persecution didn't begin until after the collapse of the fascist government and the Nazi occupation of the peninsula in 1943. Indeed, when Hitler insisted that Mussolini pass the "racial laws" and remove Jews from positions of power, il Duce was in something of a quandary, for at the time he had a Jewish mistress and the nanny of his children was also Jewish. Given this, it's hard to say the man was an anti-Semite, whereas "Bibi" is a racist through and through. Even the standard Italian fascist torture tactic, making their victims drink castor oil, seems tame compared to what the Israelis do to Palestinians. And while Mussolini did eliminate some political opponents, such as the famous Rosselli brothers (who were Jewish, and murdered by fascists in France), his list is quite modest compared to all the "targeted assassinations" (with concomitant collateral damage) of the Israelis. And, as you point out, the nastiness didn't last nearly as long as it has for the Palestinians. All in all, Benito's got nothing on Bibi as far as brutality goes. And the scowl fits to a tee.
You're right clovis, he does look like Mussolini. I'm actually living in Italy now, in Turin, home of aging Partisans, in addition to Fiat. I've read that 20-30% of Italy's Jewish population was exterminated during the war, like you said, during the Nazi occupation. It happens that I live across from the historic synagogue here in Piazzetta Primo Levi; it's guarded 15 hours a day by 2 alpine army guys in a jeep. I didn't realize the extent to which guilt (genuine or feigned, the latter especially by politicians) for the Holocaust still substantially restricts strong publicly voiced criticism of Israel. In Germany there are strict laws against anything which can be deemed anti-Semitic speech. I think it can be said that Italy does not have a tradition of rascism, though like all of Europe, there is now fear and some backlash against the immigration from Eastern Europe since 1989 and from Africa, maybe on the increase especially due to the terrible violence ongoing in the Congo.
The situation's the same in France, where I live. It used to be that discussion of the Israel-Palestine question was much more open here than in the US, but no longer. I'm not sure why this is. Of course there's a strong Jewish lobby here, too, but that doesn't really explain it, since they were there before the recent change of heart. Most alarming is that the general suppression, at least in the French MSM, of what is actually happening in the Holy Land, and the open public embrace of all things Israel, comes at a time when that country's crimes have grown worse and far more frequent.
Wow, that is alarming, and it surprises me. A media backlash against the destruction of property by Arab kids on the periphery? What backroom deals are Sarkozy and Kouchner making? I've been disappointed in the indifference and cowardice of Europe re Palestine. Italian TV news is terrible plus the myth of the liberating, Marshall Plan USA, beacon of democracy, innovation and prosperity is, incredibly, still going strong here. (Time seems to move much slower in Italy than across the pond.) How naive was I. Europeans are attached to their middle class lifestyles as much as Americans are, and the empire serves them (as its propaganda and pop culture distracts and lobotomizes them). Maybe unavoidable hard times will wake us up. Viva la rivoluzione :-(
Even though a not so news story, we all know about the influence of israhell's well financed PAC in the US. Here's a 48-minute expose on what israhell's lobbyist are doing in the UK. The documentary was produced by Dispatches, kind of similar to what our own 60 Minute program used to be. It's worth a watch and well done.

Thanks Dead,
Amazing report how the Israel lobby works behind the scenes with payola to the politicians and threats to the Media to make Israel look like the good guys.
We need to take over the Jewish mob and kick the new Nazis out!
Zionist Israel loves to be the problem... they are worse than a conspiracy.

Criticism has no affect on arrogance. Especially if you're "chosen"
Like many citizens throughout the pathetic western democracies whose politicians and elites have been corrupted into supporting this disgraceful behaviour by this particular State for so very long I am outraged.
We may wonder about the use of just commenting but many have learned a lot from contributions and conscience is disturbed more aware and awake to the grave injustices being perpetrated. But outrage is something that must become directed relentless and uncompromising to save the poor population of Palestine now. It is prompted to reach heights unimaginable when we consider the fawning weakness and unconscionable support elites in the democracies have been giving to the criminal illegal barbarism over so many years. They are the ones who are most responsible and we in turn must somehow put all our efforts into holding them all to account. We must insist on answers to questions as to why this is being done in our names. That is the responsibility of all citizens who are aware of the gravity of these ongoing criminal racist acts.
Word of mouth informed debate and the destruction of the propaganda fictions that have been pouring forth on all MSM particularly since the Territories of the Palestinians and Jerusalem have been torn asunder in Jewish Israeli interest.
The unbridled arrogance of the attacks on Lebanon and Gaza civilian structures and populations need to be placed in context. The hubris of the spoilt military high tech State that insists on those whose lands it occupies must recognise its right to exist. The right to exist for that awful democracy that treats non Jews like second class citizens while placing their brothers and sisters like animals under its well furnished military occupation is something that only those people can give Israel. Nobody else can. No other Nation can. Only those whose lands Israel occupies can. The UN can't and neither can any other State legally unless the Palestinians do.
The Quartet spoil their collaborator Abbas who is prepared to. But the elected representatives of the Palestinians Hamas don't. The Western powers enjoying the security surge Bush's ridiculous 'war' against a concept 'terrorism' availed them of followed like sheep and deemed Hamas a terrorist organisation under Israeli pressure. Fatah was fine. CIA trained and well financed with the support of the plucky little King of Jordan they are fine with Israel too in their enclaves suppressing any dissent that might bother their Israeli sponsors. Israel always wanted to divide and rule with their Palestinian problem. They chose Dahlan a familiar traitor to Palestinians and their well entrenched collaborator to direct affairs under the weak and compliant pathetic figure of Abbas and his Western supported entourage. These people Israel chose to do business with was always the aim. Only those the Israelis wanted would be acceptable to them. That's why they played Arafat on and off for so long before deeming him along with their US sponsor a terrorist.
But the Quartet insists Hamas accept all previous agreements as one condition. This alone is key to understanding what has been going on. Why should or could such a condition be required of Hamas (note)'a terrorist organisation'? When those previous agreements have never been met by Israel only broken as more and more settlements buildings and populations surged forth upon the instigation of those very agreements. Break conditions on any contract and that contract can legitimately be considered broken. Yet this is a condition? Have not the Palestinians every right to use any means to oppose a military State that terrorises their population and occupies their land? If the Chinese army occupied the USA would not US citizens have every right to attack the Chinese State itself? To fire rockets at China from border areas in an effort to force it to get out of American lands? Since when is resistance to a State that occupies others lands terrorism?
Christmas box instead of Gaza being bombed on screen for interested friends or family 'The Israel Lobby' Mearsheimer and Walt. Should be one done on Britain too.
What further proof do we need that Likud has no intention for a viable peace with the Palestinians. More FACTS ON THE GROUND.
The US congress and pentagon should send the 5 billion??, annually it gives to Israel to me. I am a US citizen and know I would put to better use than them. I would spread the wealth around, and US citizens could afford homes, or just give back to the taxpayers. Maybe then Israel would not have the money to continue destruction into Palestinian lands. USAers would be able to own their houses instead of the banks. How is that for arrogance? At the least caterpillars and weapons should be stopped and next year the money. This year I think it has already gone out. Think of the possibilities that 5 billion would pay for. Homeless shelters in every city. Loans to small business, a fund for poor children, community mental health clinics, free clinics, after school programs, funds for arts and music that have been cut in schools. There are all sorts of really neat things we could use that money for. Why do we give it away to this regime? That is an awful lot of money to throw away. We need to use that money here in the USA for constructive purposes. Next year we should just say no, stop the flow, turn it off. I cannot even say Netanyahoo and I don't want to know anything about them. I want the 5 billion to stay here within the USA, where it belongs.
Echoes, 5 billion is just the tip of the iceberg ---- dh
Throw him overboard!!
I can't believe Obama's chutzpah! Who does he think he is, criticizing Israel's building on illegally occupied land:?
If Barak Obama wants to be more than a one term president, he damn well better start swearing that anything and everything Israel does is perfectly fine by him.
GaryA
If Barak Obama wants to be more than a one term president,...
_______________________________
Oh, he does! But "swearing that anything and everything Israel does is perfectly fine by him" is just a LITTLE too obvious.
See, Obama must occasionally treat Israel like a cop treats a snitch when the Big Bust goes down. Even then, he's not going to be harsh enough to leave marks-- but he is going to make a point of smacking down the snitch in front of the REAL perps to preserve the snitch's street cred so that the snitch will live to snitch another day.
Eventually, they all meet back at the precinct and share a good laugh over their staged confrontation. Hey, don't be afraid to hit me a little HARDER the next time!
· Yr Obd't Servant
I agree. Though, at least to me,it would be no less obvious if this current action generated another UN resolution condemning it. Now, who do you think would predictably oppose it??? Why, none other than the good 'ole U.S. of A.; even as it has sided with Israel on dozens of past UN resolutions. Oh yes! The Obama administration is 'very dismayed' (Wink! Wink!). In fact, this administration may achieve new heights in hypocrisy. Whereas Bush could barely speak out one side of his mouth, Obama et al. have on EVERY major issue to date spoken not only out of both sides of their mouths, but frankly, have also blown a huge amount of crap out of another orifice. Obama is becoming yet another puppet of those who really pull the strings- no less than GW Bush. At least with Bush, you pretty much knew where he stood. Welcome to 'change you can believe in'- a.k.a a new puppet!!!
Why do 'we' here at CD never hear from the American Jewish community in condemnation of the many crimes of Israel?
Please forward any and all references that have been made by any American Jewish organization.
Do they agree with the lawlessness of Israel or what?
I am considering very seriously withdrawing any donations to a non profit '501' organization that seems to be so biased in one area that seems to be so important to the world; not just the Jews in it.
If I were a Jew I would not be silent about so much criminal activity done in the name of my faith. But then, they would not let me join their 'exclusive club'; I'm Scottish (of Clan Campbell) and the Romans hated us more than they did the Jews; they built a wall (Hadrian's) to keep us on the other side--- so we just 'threw stuff' over it and killed them.
Thanks for your time.
There are not many
http://www.jstreet.org/
Why are there not many?
And are the same "Jews" as "silent" about crimes against other "Jews" as they are about crimes committed by the Jewish nation of Israel against so many innocents?
Where oh where is "letto"? Why is he/she so silent about this subject; this is a serious break from the usual comments by "Letto" about Israel/ Jews/ and 'being Jewish'?????????
Is it really that tough to find a "good Jew" when you 'really need one' you know, to explain this one of the many great mysterys---about "Gods Chosen" ones-----?
Thanks for your time.
Can you just shut the fuck up already?
Remember, if you have nothing intelligent to say, say nothing at all!
"Jim"
'Jstreet' seems to me to be just another yet very 'slick' representation of
'look busy while doing nothing'-----
There is not one word of condemnation of the 'same criminal acts' committed by the Israeli/Jews (supported very heavily by the American tax payers) that were committed 'against the Jews' in the 'Holocaust' they even have a 'Ghetto' for Palestinians; and slaughter the innocent as readily as the Nazis.
Got any other suggestions for a source?
In the occupied territories, as in Honduras, Obama is being blindsided by Hillary. World opinion is crystal clear, and Obama is being made to look foolish in both cases.
Wafflers and bullshitters are always foolish as leaders.
He isn't being MADE to look foolish--he just IS.
Well Well Well --
Jews are thieves and have been stealing from Palestinians for over 60 years.
Jews are 0.2 % of the World's population but have with their Nuclear capability the 4th. most powerful Military in the World.
With AIPAC Jews control the US Congress and they have Rham Emanuel to control Obama.
The American Congress shamefully rejected the UN Goldstone Report criticizing Israel over their "War Crimes" in Gaza even though the Report was done by a Zionist Jew.
Well --- Well ---Well and just who could have foreseen this.
Only 2.5 % of the US Population is Jewish but they are grossly overrepresented in the US Administration and Congress where they orchestrated the present American War on Iraq and Islam.
The American Goyim has shamefully been asleep and will have to "pay" for that mistake.
.
The U.S. has no longer a government of Goyim [Gentiles], but an administration in which the Jews are full partners it the decision making at all levels. Perhaps the aspects of the Jewish religious law connected with the term 'government of goyim' should be re-examined, since it is an outdated term in the U.S. (from the major Israeli newspaper Maariv)
As we all learn quickly anyone who criticizes Jews/Israel is an anti-Semite.
Therefore all criticism of Jews/Israel is illegal and not to be listened to because it comes from -----an anti-Semite.
Criticism has no affect on arrogance. Especially if you're "chosen"
Juden uber alles.

A question:
We protest and moan much about ethnic minorities when underrepresented in work places and government positions -and rightly so- as this is clearly a reflection of injustice.
But why does the world keep utterly silent when a “certain” minority is HUGELY overrepresented in sensitive positions in many world governments??
WHY??
Where is the uproar??
Isn’t this also a blatant injustice against the majority of those countries?
PS
And pleeeeeeease no one should come with the reiterated myth that they are more “intelligent” than the rest of us as a justification for this absurdity, because this fable is the MOST RACIST claim they have managed to indoctrinate the masses to accept
see how they spread their RACIST myths and lies:

Instead of coming down so hard on Iran, why doesn't the world simply boycott Israel? If that doesn't get their attention maybe cutting off all of their funds from the US might. All you have to do is get their attention. Once that is accomplished you could probably reason with them.
The New Ten Commandments:
1) Thou shall not criticize Israel
2) Thou shall revere the holocaust with all thy heart
3) Thou shall have no doubt in your heart of the number 6 million
4) Thou shall not compare the unique suffering of the Jews with any other
5) Thou shall honour Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state
6) Thou shall adore the “sinless” Israel, regardless of allegations of sins
7) Thou shall believe that Israel has the right to defend itself and protect its security by all means (but not Muslims)
8 ) Thou shall not kill (except Muslims)
9) Thou shall not lie (except about Islam and Muslim’s WMD)
10) Thou shall obediently share your earning with Israel (through your tax money)
And there is a bonus eleventh commandment:
11) Thou shall sacrifice as many humans as humanly possible (specially those who dare to say NO) on the altar of greed and security of the Jewish state

There's only one way to stop this insanity. President Obama must cut off all aid to Israel, including all the military assets that we have been sending them. He must be firm, and only reinstate aid when Israel has created a two-state solution. If he can't do this, then the Palestinians have no future but occupation, and Obama has sacrificed all of his integrity with the people of the Middle East.
You would have to be stone deaf,dumb and blind not to see what has happened.We are in fact,The United states of Israel.President Rahm the mossad Immanual and vice president David Axelrod co commanders in chief.All of the government players are bought and paid for by Israel,in the usual way,either bribes or blackmail.Rahm Immanual + David Axelrod and the goldman sachs appointed cronies run this country.David Axelrod defended Obomba,in a lawsuit,against accusations and swept them under the rug,prior to his election.Those accusations were made by two different men,who claimed that he had been involved with them homosexually and one claimed Obomba smoked crack with him.It is on yahoo, lookup Obama homosexual.True or not? When Bush was in an important meeting,if that was possible, the Israeli prime minister wanted to talk to him about instructing ms. Rice to change her vote,he was told to get him out of the meeting and bush did rush out and followed his orders.
The mounting world outrage and BDS will be the factor that ends the occupation.
"Obama has sacrificed all his integrity"now there's a good one.LA LA LAND TALK.OBAMA is a WAR CRIMINAL!
