Israel to build 942 more homes in east Jerusalem [Shove it Obama & Hillary & U.N.!]

Israel has advanced the process of building 942 more settler homes in east Jerusalem under a new fast-track plan to tighten its grip on the territory, which the Palestinians claim as the capital of a future state.

A government planning committee on Monday moved the project to the advanced stage of asking contractors to submit bids to build them, the Interior Ministry said Tuesday. Once a bid is awarded, construction can begin on the project in the Gilo area, though it can take months, if not longer, to reach that point.

An additional 300 units can be built after further planning, said attorney Daniel Seidemann, an expert on Jerusalem construction who sees the building as an obstacle to peacemaking. About 40,000 Israelis live in Gilo.

"With God's help, we will continue to live and build in Jerusalem, which will remain united under Israeli sovereignty," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the campaign launch event of his Likud Party. "We will continue to strengthen the settlements." Israeli elections are set for Jan. 22.

Hahaha, that’s like me claiming part of D.C. as the
capital of the future state of Tet.

An American president with nads would have recognized
Jerusalem as the capital of Israel by now, and moved
our embassy there.

If he had such a pair he’d have nuked Tehran prior to the American election.

Still time to strike Iran, help finish off Syria, and —crush Hamas. Israel must make Jerusalem a Jewish City—Rebuild the Temple!

Anybody living with their eyes open can see that Israel must increase her territorial buffers as the entire Middle East is going the Muslim Brotherhood way and that creates major peril for the Israelis (and later, Europeans and Americans). Israel has no choice now, the Iranian window and HAMAS windows are closing...

The sad truth is that NOBODY respects Pres. Obama, Sec. of State Hilliary or this administration at all. The world loathes them. America’s friends and enemies can’t stand him. Now they may have hated G.W. Bush BUT...they respected him. This President is neither. He is hated and viewed a a mere amature on the world stage. How the American people ever put him back in office is still something puzzeling the rest of the world...

There is no such legal or geographic entity as “East Jerusalem”.

Talk show host Tamar Yonah (on Israel National Radio, see her podcast RSS feed!) quips that under the same rules that the media and UN apply to Israel about “occupied settlements”, New York City would be considered an occupied settlement.

I'm sure people have noted since around 1922 Israel has given land for peace and now that there is very little land to chip off for the failed over and over again "land for peace" mirage/lies, it's time to begin screaming," We have the peace, you give us the land."

Soon, G!d will step in and all this hell from the prince of this world will be over. The birth pangs have increased as has the evil. Pray for peace, prepare for war.
