U.S.: No Need for PA to Recognize Israel
Israel National News ^ | 3/9/2014 | Elad Benari

Posted on 03/08/2014 7:09:08 PM PST by sheikdetailfeather

The United States believes there is no need for the Palestinian Authority (PA) to recognize Israel as a Jewish state as part of a peace agreement, State Department Spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Saturday.

Psaki, who spoke to the PA-based Arabic-language Al-Quds newspaper, said, “The American position is clear, Israel is a Jewish state. However, we do not see a need that both sides recognize this position as part of the final agreement.”

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has been adamant on the PA recognizing Israel as a Jewish state, explaining that the Arabs’ refusal to recognize Israel stands at the heart of the conflict.

No need for islamoNazi terrorists to recognize the people they plan to murder,( with Washington’s help setting them up for the slaughter ) Well, at least nobody can say any longer that “ peace “ was ever in Obama-Kerry’s plan. What a horrible embarrassment for the USA !!

Who are the Palestinians? Every Arab country avoids the Palestinians. Palestinians inhabit a little craphole piece of land which they have done nothing to improve. Israelis received the same type of land and it now is lush and produces like crazy. Israelis have a list of patents stretching a mile long; Palestinians? Still waiting.

Which group is more deserving of life, hope and support?

“Appalling...........I feel so sorry for our allies. Obama is selling them all out. Our word and bond are toast with the Bamster at the helm.”

It takes a long time to build trust, but it can be lost very quickly...the worldwide damage is going to take 5x as long to undo.

Well, it will be good for arms sales worldwide, anyway. See? Obama “created” some jobs after all.

There aren’t very many Palestinians who actually live in “Palestine”. I read somewhere that the wealthier Arab countries have wondered where all the money that has been given to them has gone. By their calculations, all of the Palestinians should be living large by now. And that’s just the ARAB money.

God is good, and always true to His word. Have faith. Obama can’t destroy what God has writ.

Reading the article is always helpful.

Our rulers don’t think the PA needs to recognize Israel because our administration thinks or hopes that Israel will be unrecognizable pretty soon anyway.

“I don’t understand why Bibi does not throw Kerry out ...”

Because Bibi knows that no other nation is so foolish as to negotiate a “peace” with a party (the PLA) whose aim is to kill or drive out all members of the other party (Israel).

Moreover, while the PLA has almost no power in the first place, Hamas and Hezbollah (funded and supported by Iran) have all the power and military - they are not at the table, as both are committed to the absolute destruction of Israel and will broker no peace whatsoever. Everyone knows this, even the US which uses the ‘peace process’ to take over the news cycle and away from other matters. Right now this ‘news story’ is fighting to draw as much attention in the cycle as possible away from the Ukraine.

The real root of the conflict is that there are those in this world who do not accept Islam. Israel is just the current prime target - things in Europe are going well for Islam and the US is beginning to shape up.

I hear Kerry is also telling Israel to have its military abide by our Border Patrol ROE - don’t shoot at anything/keep your gun holstered/gain a tactical advantage by running away....

Actually the Palestinians are doing well - their markets are overflowing with produce. The money goes to Swiss bank accounts, military training, and arms to kill Jews.

The Saudis, the Qatarians, the Dubians (the ARAB money) know very well where the money goes, since they fund the money directly for those goals and expect some to be siphoned off - as that is the custom and allowed for in the funding.

The other Palestinians, aka historically ‘southern Syrians’, live in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon.

We are still waiting for the Arabs to steal some other invention and claim it as their own, as they did with the zero, algebra, and so on. We are also still waiting for them to translate anything other than Islamic works and “Mein Kampf”.

We are still waiting for Arab countries to allow the Palestinians to live in their countries, rather than keeping them in “refuge camps” to be used to further the Islamic agenda.

The statement is nonsensical.

Gosh, it's almost as if there's a "journolist" type private internet forum where memes are coordinated. Thanks sheikdetailfeather.

That sounds remarkably like “the poor” in the U.S. Let’s see, since 1967...how many trillions divided by how many million “poor?” Oh, let’s not leave out the Dimocratz who administer all this money; how much money has stuck to their hands?

Why? I just stated where they live - of course Jordan is part of “Palestine” area.
