Israelis Are Willing to Divide Jerusalem
NYPOST ^ | 9/2/2010 | NYPost

Posted on 09/02/2010 4:46:39 PM PDT by Dallas59

Israel is willing to make a sweeping concession -- dividing control of Jerusalem -- as part of a historic final peace pact with Palestinians, a key Cabinet member revealed yesterday.

Defense Minister Ehud Barak signaled that his government is ready to drop its demand that even after the creation of a Palestinian state, Jerusalem would "remain the undivided capital of Israel."

"West Jerusalem and 12 Jewish neighborhoods that are home to 200,000 [Israeli] residents will be ours," Barak told the newspaper Haaretz.

"The Arab neighborhoods in which close to a quarter million Palestinians live will be theirs," he added, referring to the eastern part of the city that was captured from Jordan in the 1967 Mideast war.

Bibi can’t possibly be seriously considering something of this magnitude.

It’s impossible.

There is no final “solution” in Palestine so long as there are Jews alive there or Mohammedans.

Hmmmm. Maybe he thinks that Israel can get it all back in the next war? He must know one is coming if he does this.

Neither the US nor the Israelis are willing to do what must be done to rid themselves of the virus called Islam.

This is Netanyahu being the trojan horse he proved to be the last time he was PM. It is like electing Romney on a promise to repeal Obamacare.

As soon as the offer is made it becomes the new minimum condition. There will be no solution until Iran fires a nuke at Tel Aviv. Then there will be a solution of one sort or another.

We’ll see you back at the negotiating table in a couple of years to give up the next chunk.

A couple of months, maybe.

Fore all his firm and fiery campaign rhetoric Bibi is John McCain in a yarmulka. He has not changed since the first time.

Revelation 11:2
But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

IT IS always a temptation to an armed and agile nation,
To call upon a neighbour and to say:
“We invaded you last night - we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.”

And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you’ve only to pay ’em the Dane-geld
And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!

It is always a temptation to a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say:
“Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”

And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.

It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray,
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say:

“We never pay any one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost,
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that plays it is lost!”

Danegeld - Rudyard Kipling

If this is to get US consent to bomb Iran, then what..? It’s foolish and short sited no matter how you look at it. What on earth do they think they’ll get from doing this..?

If this peace accord allows for the building of the third temple. Say your prayers, receive ye the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. Get baptized in Jesus Name for the remission of your sins and say goodbye. We’re going on home.

God said not to divide HIS LAND.

This just needed to be repeated....we do forget it is His and who HE chooses to give it to...but He is quite clear about not dividing His land...so both sides of the issue had better take heed on that note.

Well one does not have to speak in tongues to be saved...in fact scripture is clear tongues evidences unbelief.

folks i don't post here all that often, but I've been around for awhile,

this is one of the scariest things to ever come up in my memory,

When God goes down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat and pleads for his people, he specifically mentions they parted his land, see Joel 3:2

We're also into Revelation 16:19 where they divide Jerusalem into three parts.

if your ever going to do it, now is the time - pray for the peace of Jerusalem

The Holy Spirit was upon Mr. Kipling when he penned those words...

1 Timothy 6:10
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

What??? You don’t know that there never was a Jewish temple on the Temple Mount. So claim the Arabs. You don’t know that it was not Isaac that Abraham was about to sacrifice on Mount Moriah (the future Temple Mount) but rather is was Ishmael, the father of the Arabs? Come on now, get with it. All of Israel is part of Palestine and belongs to the Arabs. The Jews all must leave. That is the Arab ultimate goal.

As for Ehud Barack, he is an idiot who today is responsible for the deaths of 4 Israelis in the West Bank where he ordered removal of road block checks.

Just wondering if you believe that you have to repent (turn away from sin and turn towards God) in order to be saved.

To tell you the truth, I’m still working on that one.
