Kerry suggests defining Israel as “national homeland for Jews”
Jihad Watch ^ | 3/30/14 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 03/30/2014 7:37:00 PM PDT by Nachum

Why exactly a “national homeland for Jews” would be acceptable to “Palestinian” Islamic supremacists in a way that “Jewish state” isn’t remains unclear, but the “Palestinians,” as maximalist and unilateral as ever, have already rejected the proposal, so we will probably never glimpse the arcane reasoning processes of the formidable Kerry.

“Report: Kerry suggests defining Israel as ‘national homeland for Jews,’” by Roi Kais for Ynet News, March 29 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):

US Secretary of State John Kerry is trying to overcome the controversy surrounding the recognition of Israel as a Jewish state by changing the definition to “the national homeland of the Jews”, the London-based Arabic Al-Hayat newspaper reported Saturday morning.

The report, that quoted western diplomatic sources, noted that in exchange for Kerry’s initiative, the Palestinians would have to agree that the Palestinian capital would be established only in parts of East Jerusalem; it was further reported that the Palestinians have rejected the proposal.

I suggest defining Kerry as a “lying, gold-digging traitor”.

Every nation on earth is a homeland.

The Arabs simply deny the Jews are entitled to one. From the Arab viewpoint, the Jews are merely members of a religion and do not constitute a nation. That view by the way, is in black and white in the PLO Covenant.

Now we get to the real heart of the conflict - its not the words “Jewish State” the Arabs have an issue with but with the fact Jews claim national rights that are equal to theirs.

They cannot ever accept Jews as equals and there will never be peace. Any one who thinks otherwise is not conversant with reality.

What utter bs. Kerry needs to go squirt ketchup on a bathroom wall somewhere other than in the Middle East.

This proposal is so stunningly stupid that it leaves me speechless but not in the least surprised comming from the mac daddy administration inhabited by mindless sock puppets.

Once again mac, the pu***, daddy can claim no knowledge of what’s going on until he heard it on the news.

Wow just wow

Let’s see - he was correct in supporting the Nuclear Freeze movement, the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua and of course his truthful testimony in regards to war crimes by US soldiers in Vietnam - why wouldn’t he be correct in this verbal gymnastic exercise? We are all too obtuse to appreciate his skills when it comes to international issues.

He’s no Jimmy Byrnes that’s for sure - he was probably the last great Dem Secretary of State this country has seen

Screw you Kerry. Israel is a nation, an independent sovereign nation. The Arab world can get used to it, get over it, get on with life or get their asses kicked again.

Mr arrogant and egotistical kerry, you have no right to define who or what they are. So STFU and get the hell out of the way. When the Palestinians get tired of dieing they will see the light.

The only thing the muslim world respects it overwhelming force and the willingness to use it. History has proven this time and time again.

I was taught by a survivor, now departed. How anyone could move on after enduring such hardship and witnessing such horrors still amazes me.

Yes, I think Kerry is plagiarizing from the Balfour Declaration.

He must have been spending too much time around Joe Biden.
