Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman on Wednesday reiterated the Jewish state's refusal to freeze settlements, after his first talks with US counterpart Hillary Clinton exposed gaps on Middle East peace.

Lieberman, standing next to Secretary of State Clinton after the pair had more than one hour of talks, told reporters that Israel did not have "any intention to change the demographic balance" of the West Bank.

"This approach is very clear and also we had some understandings with the previous administration (of George W. Bush) and we try to keep this direction," he said.

Obama's muslim speech is a FAILURE.

Good for them. What’s Hillary going to do, throw an ash tray?

Click the link. Lieberman was somewhat vague on natural settlement.

He said that in front of her? Damn. I guess he didn't get her memo.

Did he insist that Obama must swear a loyalty oath?

OK, now what does she do.

I have liked Lieberman for years. The Russians are very hard headed. They’ve seen evil and lived under it. They can’t be fooled.

Avigdor Lieberman puts Obama's vicious cat in her place.

She has to appease him, of course. Liberals always kiss the hand that slaps them.

It is now a capital offense in the PA to sell land to a Jew. The real obstacle to peace is the refugee camps and the people who’ve been trapped in them for three generations. If those oil-rich Arabs would just build one less palace a year, they could resettle them in their own land, and de-educate them from all the hate-filled blather they’ve been fed for sixty years. But guess who paid their “educators” in the first place?

When did Pennsylvania go Shariah??

Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

All those refugees in Williamsport and Bloomberg are the real problem. What comes of selling land to Jews.
