JERUSALEM, Israel -- While U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry presses ahead with trying to create a Palestinian state by this spring, a senior Israeli government minister says Kerry doesn't know what he's talking about.
"The only thing that can 'save us' is for John Kerry to win a Nobel [Peace] Prize and leave us in peace," Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon said.
Ya'alon made headlines Tuesday over remarks he reportedly made in private conversations both abroad and at home, according to the Israeli daily Yediot Ahronot.
"Secretary of State John Kerry, who came here very determined and operates based on an unfathomable obsession and messianic feeling, cannot teach me anything about the Palestinians…I live and breathe the conflict with the Palestinians. I know what they think, what they want and what they really mean," said Ya'alon, himself a former Israel Defense Forces chief of staff.
In private conversations, Ya'alon reportedly called the security plan presented by U.S. Gen. (ret.) John Allen untenable for the Jewish state.
"The American security plan presented to us is not worth the paper it's written on," he said. "It contains no peace and no security. Only our continued presence in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] and the Jordan River will guarantee that Ben Gurion Airport [Israel's main international airport] and [the northern coastal city] Netanya do not become targets for missiles from every direction."
Ya'alon criticized the notion that technology could replace soldiers in the field.
"You presented us with a plan based on smart technologies, satellites, sensors, war rooms with television screens, without our forces being present on the ground," Ya'alon continued.
"And I ask you, how will your technology help us when a Salafist terror cell or one from Islamic Jihad tries to carry out a terror attack against Israeli targets? Who will take care of them? What satellites will take care of the rocket industry developing in Shechem [Nablus], and the rockets that will be launched at Tel Aviv and the central region?"
Ya'alon called negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority illusory.
"There are no negotiations with the Palestinians. The Americans are holding negotiations with us and in parallel with the Palestinians," he explained. "So far, we are the only side to have given anything -- the release of murderers -- and the Palestinians have given nothing."
On releasing more convicted terrorists, Ya'alon said "enough is enough."
"We have given enough and received nothing," he said. "Let us say to our American friends, 'enough is enough.'"
If only a majority of U.S. Jews rationally saw the world like this guy does.
And here we just ‘thought’ that it couldn’t get any worse in the Obamanation. If we only knew....that Obama would once again and as usual thumb his nose and extend his index finger to America and to all Americans by appointing the traitorous POS Hanoi John Kerry (who was in VietNam AND Cambodia once)....to fill the former SOS position of the former traitorous POS, Hillary Clinton. I’m guessing that it won’t be necessary to ask the Israelis “pitchfork time yet?”. They’re “”getting it””....and a helluva lot faster than most asleep-at-the-switch, mind-numbed Americans.
That’s exactly why our admitted foreign born twice unconstitutionally elected Islamic Kenyan faux POTUS made him Secretary of state.
“Let us say to our American friends, ‘enough is enough.’”
Finally, an adult speaks.
Obama's Church: Gospel of Hate
Kathy Shaidle, FrontPageMag.com

In March of 2007, FOX News host Sean Hannity had engaged Obama’s pastor in a heated interview about his Church’s teachings. For many viewers, the ensuing shouting match was their first exposure to "Black Liberation Theology"...
Like the pro-communist Liberation Theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of "salvation" in the afterlife is superseded by "liberation" on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

Catholics for Marx [Liberation Theology]
By Fr. Robert Sirico
FrontPageMagazine.com | Thursday, June 03, 2004
In the days when the Superpowers were locked in a Cold War, Latin America seethed with revolution, and millions lived behind an iron curtain, a group of theologians concocted a novel idea within the history of Christianity. They proposed to combine the teachings of Jesus with the teachings of Marx as a way of justifying violent revolution to overthrow the economics of capitalism.
The Gospels were re-rendered not as doctrine impacting on the human soul but rather as windows into the historical dialectic of class struggle. These "liberation theologians" saw every biblical criticism of the rich as a mandate to expropriate the expropriating owners of capital, and every expression of compassion for the poor as a call for an uprising by the proletarian class of peasants and workers.

The presence of Marxism in liberation theology is well-known, at least to seminarians who are critical readers. Practically every seminarian reads Gustavo Gutierrez’s Theology of Liberation at some point, but most laypeople find it hard to believe that there could have been (and continues to be) a widespread attempt to hybridize Christian theology and Marxism.
Marxist regimes obviously benefitted from the spread of liberation theology in the churches. Still, I was not aware of any connections between liberation theology and communist clandestine organizations until now.
A new article by Robert D. Chapman in the International Journal of Intelligence and Counterintelligence begins to connect some dots. In “The Church in Revolution,” Chapman, “a retired operations officer in the Clandestine Services Division of the Central Intelligence Agency,” argues that the KGB infiltrated the Russian Orthodox Church through Metropolitan Nikodim, the Russian Orthodoxy’s second-ranking prelate. Nikodim was a proponent of liberation theology. Nikodim was active in the otherwise-Protestant World Council of Churches. And the WCC, of course, became an actively left-wing organization during the last half of the 20th century.
Chapman also details the growth of liberation theology in Latin America—and the Vatican’s struggles with it—and the growth of black liberation theology in the United States. Prominent proponents of the latter include James Cone and Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
The arguments of liberation theologians should be challenged on their merits. The source of an argument, after all, doesn’t establish its truth or falsity. Still, it’s interesting to learn that liberation theology may have been, at least in part, a project of the KGB.
Unfortunately, this isn’t just history. Chapman concludes ominously:
"the Theology of Liberation doctrine is one of the most enduring and powerful to emerge from the KGB’s headquarters. The doctrine asks the poor and downtrodden to revolt and form a Communist government, not in the name of Marx or Lenin, but in continuing the work of Jesus Christ, a revolutionary who opposed economic and social discrimination.
A friend of mine, a head of Catholic social services in my area and formerly a priest, is a liberation theologian. He has made a number of humanitarian trips to Central America and told me, ‘‘liberation theology is alive and well.’’ The same can be said of its sibling in the United States [ie, Black Liberation Theology]."

Here's some related info...
But first, Riverside Church is directly across the street from Columbia University. During the 1980s Obama and Bill Ayers attended college mere blocks apart from each other (at the same time), Obama at Columbia College, a part of Columbia U, and Ayers at Bank Street College, a couple blocks away. Also directly across the street from Riverside Church is the Union Theological Seminary. That is where black communist, James Cone, was teaching when he, with probable KGB assistance, concocted his Black Liberation Theology.

Profile: Institute For Policy Studies (IPS)
IPS’s [Institute For Policy Studies] Washington, DC headquarters quickly became a resource center for national reporters and a place for KGB agents from the nearby Soviet embassy to convene and strategize.
Cora Weiss headed one of the IPS's most successful forays -- into Riverside Church in Manhattan. She was invited there in 1978 by the Reverend William Sloane Coffin to run the church's Disarmament Program, which sought to consolidate Soviet nuclear superiority in Europe -- in the name of "peace."
In 1982 Weiss helped organize the largest pro-disarmament demonstration ever held. Staged in New York City, the rally was attended by a coalition of communist organizations.
During her decade-long tenure at Riverside, which became home to the National Council of Churches, Weiss regularly received Russian KGB agents, Sandinista friends, and Cuban intelligence agents. Weiss became infamous for her role in the psychological warfare conducted against U.S. prisoners of war held in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" during the Vietnam War.
The Liberation News Service, which is a news source for hundreds of "alternative" publications nationwide (with antiwar, Marxist-oriented perspectives), was founded in 1967 with IPS assistance."

Americans with a brain have known this ever since Kerry lied to congress back in 1971 not to mention his "purple heart" and other fabricated war stories about his 'service'.
"The American security plan presented to us is not worth the paper it's written on," Obama's legacy on foreign policy will go down in history as one of, in not THE worst in American History.
Pray for Israel - Obama appears to be pulling for the terrorists.........
Kerry absolutely deserves it! He’s practically turned Israel into his second home the last few months showing up there every week to pressure Israel to cave not only to a nuclear Iran but to the other terror groups as well!
The fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
Hillary Clinton set the record with 401 travel days, breaking the prior mark of George P. Shultz who traveled 357 days.
But John Kerry is well on his way to breaking that mark having traveled 140 days since he took office February 1! That means he’s been on the road on official business more than 40% of the time!
Well, one might need an official Kerry decoder ring-—it’s disguised as a bottle of ketchup. If you think you understand him just shove your own bottle of ketchup in your own ear——that should get your mind right. Calling him a blowhard is a great dis-service to standard blowhards.
Sounds like it may be time for Obama to go there with a six pack and have a beer conference with the two sides. After all, he is a Nobel “Peace” Prize recipient.
Wonderful!
I REALLY like the Israelis.
...and he knows nothing about ketchup.
Truth be told, it wasn’t really all THAT difficult.
After all, he was choosing from a list of democrats.
;-)
Sadly it tells us more about how stupid Israel can be, when they know there will be no peace through negotiation. Peace for Palestine is defined as, no Israel. How many times must we see maps that exclude Israel entirely and those Middle Eastern States are not the only ones drawing them up.
Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon described John Kerry 100% accurtaely. Lurch is a brainless robotic conscienceless glory seeker and always has been. If screwing Israel puts him in the history books then he will do it....is doing it or trying too.
Kerry being 50% Jewish via his grandparents.... very disgraceful
Bibi is Sir Talks A Lot, and gives a lot. Iran has become a nuclear state, with our blessing.
The Quisling fiefdoms will go hat in hand to Iran soon enough, unless they can con Israel into doing what they fear to do, and hope that Israel will be weak enough for them to do what Iran dreamed of.
They criticize Kerry but I don’t remember the Sec. of State getting one (Noebel Prize) in conncection with the Camp David accord back in the 1970’s.
Shouldn’t Obama get the credit or blame since he’s ultimately behind this phony peace process.
