U.S. president vows to hold both sides accountable for steps that 'undermine trust'; Quartet welcomes launch of proximity talks as 'significant' step toward direct negotiations....

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Obama welcomed the beginning of indirect Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations and reiterated his strong support for the two-state solution.

The U.S. leader also urged both parties to "negotiate seriously and in good faith and to move from proximity talks to direct negotiations as soon as possible," the White House said.

Obama expressed during the conversation his appreciation for Abbas' recent gesture by appearing on Israeli television, and urged the president to prevent any acts of incitement or de-legitimization of Israel from the Palestinian people.

There already is a Palestinian state, it’s called Jordan. Creating another one is pointless.

The two wolves wishing they could invite the lamb over for dinner.

Netanyahu has other dinner plans and they’ll soon find out that he is no lamb, and not to be trifled with.

So what’s the problem. All he has to do is get a country that has been bombed and killed by Arabs for ever to make a deal with a bunch of radical terrorists that want to wipe them off the map. Can this President possibly get any more stupid? I think there’s a chance the answer is yes.

Now that obama and the democrat congress have OVERTHROWN THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, they are going to try to overthrow the few remaining non-communist / non-socialist countries in the world.

The Mahdi might be the antichrist.

Translation......."I am committed to the PA goal of destroying Israel."

Barry is not my president. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem - the eternal capital of Israel. May they prosper who love thee..... shalom

I prefer books to videos because I check the context of citations. Read “The Islamic Antichrist” by Joel Richardson. It’s full of the Islamic and Christian scripture that explains how their savior is our antichrist, and vice-versa.

Bibi is calling their bluff, IMHO. He knows the Palestinian terrorists can no more make peace with Israel than they can renounce their satanic death cult of Islam and become Jehovah Witnesses. They might pretend to make peace but they’ll do what they always to, as soon as the ink is dry, (or even before), they’ll start lobbing missiles at Israel, send in suicide bombers, all the usual crap.

I predict Netanyahu will have a major surprise for them this time.

Does NObama need a new place to retire to when he is gone from the Oval Office???

Seems Kenya isn’t good enough for him.
