Our message is clear: We are planting here, we will stay here, we will build here, this place will be an inseparable part of the State of Israel for eternity," Netanyahu said in the Gush Etzion enclave.
Speaking after meeting U.S. President Barack Obama's Middle East envoy in Jerusalem, Netanyahu vowed Israel would also keep its two biggest West Bank settlements, Maale Adumim and Ariel.
His comments came as no surprise to the Palestinians, who were put on notice by

Including the part where God states that the Jews are His chosen people and how they will come back to Him and be saved.
You're on your own.
I am with reality.
Somehow I feel sure you'd want it that way.
May He ever bless you, and all your loved ones!
No, it requires only reading ability.
If it wasn't for the Jews, we wouldn't have Jesus Christ.
He's only Jewish on His mother's side.
The Jews are God's business, and God's business alone and never did He give anyone the authority to judge the Jewish people based on bias and hatred.
I still haven't seen evidence of hatred.
Indifference, maybe. Certainly no predisposition to
embrace any group of non-Christians.
They are His chosen people.
So what are Christians then? We accept Christ while they
do not, yet they are chosen? I takes "hate" to ask this?
they're going to be brought back to God
AH! So they have departed from God? How could they be "brought back" otherwise?
That’s debatable.
Well then you need to get someone to read Scripture to you because if you can't see where God clearly states that the Jews are His chosen people then you don't have reading ability.
He's only Jewish on His mother's side.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt on this and take it as a joke. Nobody can be that ignorant.
I still haven't seen evidence of hatred. Indifference, maybe. Certainly no predisposition to embrace any group of non-Christians.
Of course you haven't. Everyone discards the Scripture about God's love for the Jews and the fact that they are the nation He created especially to bring Christ into the world. Everyone takes it upon themselves to judge God's people. It's not hatred. Really.
So what are Christians then? We accept Christ while they do not, yet they are chosen? I takes "hate" to ask this?
They are chosen. If they die without knowing Christ as Savior, they go to hell. They lived for 2000 years without their own country, being persecuted and hunted and slaughtered because of their stubborn disobedience and their rejection of their Messiah. They are the most despised group of people on the face of the earth.
They are still chosen. Not because of them, not because they are somehow magical, but because of God and His faithfulness for the eternal covenants He made with Abraham. They are loved by God, not because of them, but because of Him. And He has loved them through all the centuries of disobedience and rejection and unbelief and the day is coming soon when He will remove the blindness from their eyes, and they will realize what they have done, and they will come back to Him.
And, it is still none of our business. This is God's affair and the only thing we need to know is that they are the apple of His eye, and we are to love them. The time is coming, after all, when the Gentiles will no longer run the show and the Jews will be extremely esteemed people.
That day is on it's way.
AH! So they have departed from God? How could they be "brought back" otherwise?
Yes, they have departed from God as they have throughout history and God will bring them back to Himself as He has throughout their history.
It's difficult to reconcile calling oneself a Christian yet harboring hatred toward His people and rejecting what He has said about His love for His people and His plan for His people.
Something maybe to pray about.
Something maybe to pray about.
Perhaps so.
Nope, everything was answered.
This is a debate forum.
There is a true Christianity which has no need of idolatry of Israel, and no need of paradoxically endorsing a different religion which willfully rejects Christ.
Your kind words, Dear Sister in Christ, touch and humble me deeply. I had no idea you’d bother with my poor words.
Thanks much.
BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD.
AGREED.
Though sometimes, it seems to me that Scriptures indicate that
. . . David will rule from David’s throne . . . over Israel
And Christ will rule over all Creation from there.
Lots to discover then! LOL.
I find your perspective
terminally, horribly UNBiblically wholesale
WRONG.
You have avoided Zech and Daniel.
You trash Revelation.
Evidently you Trash Romans 11 and Hebrews.
Just how much of your Shredded Bible is left that you really trust as God’s Word?
GOD ALMIGHTY HAS DECLARED
THAT AS LONG AS THERE ARE STARS, SUN AND MOON
HIS PROMISES TO ISRAEL—BLOOD ISRAEL—REMAIN IN FORCE.
I’m sure HE’S impressed with your telling
HIM—ALMIGHTY GOD, THAT HE DIDN’T MEAN THAT.
LOL to the max.
INDEED.
Characteristically, you remain in the darkness of being utterly incorrect.
Would be . . . if it were true.
Which, it’s WHOLESALE NOT TRUE . . .
I don’t know of a single FREEPER who idolizes Israel in the least.
We just have the GOOD HORSE SENSE
TO BELIEVE ALMIGHTY GOD
WHEN ALMIGHTY GOD DECLARES THAT THOSE WHO BLESS THE CHILDREN OF JACOB WILL BE BLESSED.
AND THOSE WHO CUR5SE OR TROUBLE ISRAEL WILL BE CURSED OR TROUBLED.
That may be mystifying theology to some . . .
It’s pretty clear to those of us who have the minimal sense necessary to TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD.
. . . KIND OF LIKE . . . David did, Elisha did, Daniel did, Paul did, Luke did, John did . . .
Nobody can be that ignorant.
= = = =
I used to think that before I lived hereon! LOL.
This is God’s affair and the only thing we need to know is that they are the apple of His eye, and we are to love them. The time is coming, after all, when the Gentiles will no longer run the show and the Jews will be extremely esteemed people.

INDEED!
Though the CHRISTIAN BLOOD BROTHERS GRAFTED IN TO THE JEWISH TREE
will likely have some pretty important positions as well . . . there ARE 12 Israelite Partiarch thrones AND 12 DISCIPLES’ thrones . . . kind of implies an equal and parallel role for Christian heirs of Abraham.
And your coy, cryptic, mostly non-communications are supposed to be a demonstration of some sort of
. . . what . . .
secret NON-debating . . . . silent . . . CODE????
