Netanyahu maintains the same position he’s ALWAYS HAD with negotiating with the PA for forming a Palestinian State. As I suspected and have known from before, Netanyahu’s position on that is reasonable and fair ... and HAS NOT CHANGED!
And on the issue of ARABS In Israel, he made clear what his position HAS ALWAYS BEEN with Israeli Arab Citizens ... they have full rights of any citizen and they will be helped by various social programs as he has always done, and they will NOT be discriminated against. They are FULLY INTEGRATED into Israeli society!
BOTH of those things sounds EXACTLY like the Netanyahu from before and extremely fair. Israel should be EXTREMELY PROUD of Netanyahu as their Prime Minister!
Prime Minister Netanayahu gets SLAMMED by the Left and the New York Times ... AND ... and he gets SLAMMED by the Right and the Israeli papers ... LOL ...
AGAIN ... Netanyahu’s position on being very willing to negotiate with the PA and very willing in forming a Palestinian State has remained the SAME for years ... as he pointed out from his Bar-Ilan speech.
Netanyahu has never been the “holdup” on forming the Palestinian State, it has been the Palestinian Authority who has been the holdup. They don’t want to get the Palestinian State through “negotiations” with Israel, but they want to get it from it being “imposed from the outside” without any conditions attached,

Netanyahu Flip Flop: I Want a Two-State Solution [Israel]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3269715/posts
Days after vowing not to establish a Palestinian state, Netanyahu says something else in his first post-election interview.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has retracted his pre-election statements, according to which he would not allow a Palestinian state to be established.
“I don’t want a one-state solution. I want a sustainable, peaceful two-state solution,” Netanyahu said Thursday in an interview with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell. “I haven’t changed my policy.”
Netanyahu said his earlier comments were a reflection of changing conditions on the Palestinian side, pointing to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s pact to form a unity government with Hamas, which Israel, the U.S. and most European countries consider a terrorist organization.
“I’m talking about what is achievable and what is not achievable,” Netanyahu said Thursday, insisting that he would support a demilitarized Palestinian state under a plan that would ensure Israel’s security.
The UK and the Obama Admimistration simply wants to “cherry-pick” a single statement, out of YEARS OF POLICY and ACTIONS by Israel and Netanyahu, to use as an EXCUSE to “bring down the hammer” on Israel and Netanyahu, something the UK and Obama has wanted to do all along!!

In First Post-Election Interview Netanyahu Says He Supports ‘Sustainable’ Two-State Solution, Never Changed His Policy
http://www.algemeiner.com/2015/03/19/in-first-post-election-interview-netanyahu-says-he-supports-‘sustainable’-two-state-solution-never-changed-his-policy/
JNS.org - In his first interview with American media after his Likud party’s election victory, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he supports a demilitarized Palestinian state that recognizes a Jewish state, if specific circumstances make that a realistic possibility.
“I don’t want a one-state solution,” he said in an interview with NBC News. “I want a sustainable, peaceful two-state solution.”
In a pre-election interview on Monday, Netanyahu had told the NRGwebsite that he would not support Israeli withdrawal from its territory to make room for a Palestinian state, due to the possibility of attacks by Islamic extremists.
“I haven’t changed my policy,” Netanyahu told NBC News on Thursday. “I never retracted my speech at Bar-Ilan University six years ago calling for a demilitarized Palestinian state that recognizes a Jewish state.”
Netanyahu said he believes “circumstances have to change” for there to be a Palestinian state, adding that current Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has made a pact with Hamas that calls for Israel’s destruction.
“And every territory that is vacated today in the Middle East is taken up by Islamist forces,” he said. “We want that to change so we can realize a vision of real, sustained peace.”
The U.S. State Department on Thursday said it “can’t forget” what Netanyahu said about his position on a two-state solution earlier this week.
“Certainly, the prime minister’s comments from a few days ago called into question his commitment to that,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
“We believe he changed his position,” she added. “We can’t forget about those [initial] comments.”
A great Briton, poet, philosopher, theologian and opium addict, once said “If you do not understand a man’s ignorance, presume yourself ignorant of his understanding.” What does Britain not understand? Nations are not made by proclamations and recognitions. They are built and maintained by blood, sweat and tears of the people who comrpise them. Israel was not created by the Balfour Declaration, or any UN or League of Nations resolution, nor by any exchanges of ambassadors. It grew organically over many decades, with pioneers risking malaria to drain swamps, working to exhaustion to cultivate fields and orchids, capitalists investing money to build settlements, silent resistance to Turkish tyranny, followed by open conflict in alliance with the British, then silent resistance to British tyranny, followed by open revolt, which ultimately was successful, and then an all-out war with our neighbors.
The “Palestinians” have done nothing except commit cowardly acts of murder, mostly aimed at civilians and non-combatants, and sling cart loads and truck loads and tanker loads of BS. Let the British declare whatever they want. It’s irrelevant. The reality of a Palestinian state doesn’t exist, and can’t be declared or recognized into existence.
The whole conflict is based upon the fact that the Arabs - Islamic Arabs, want the Jews out of Jerusalem and they have said time and time and time and time again, they are willing to die for it. That’s all anyone has to know when it comes to this conflict. Judaism which is thousands of years older than the devils religion Islam, Judaism which has been in Jerusalem thousands of years before Mohammed was even a drop a ejaculate crawling down his dog mother paw, and THEY have the audacity to claim Jerusalem is theirs? F them and their Satanic cult. Israel takes up 2/10th of one percent of land in the entire middle east. The rest is all Muslim dominated and they are demanding Jews leave? They have the audacity to claim that Jews are oppressive?
