The whole problem in the middle east is that those stubborn Jews INSIST on defending themselves. There is no flexibility. /s
The darned Jews refuse to offer their children to Moloch.
by contrast, the Muslims seem to have little qualm with offering their children as suicide bombers to Moloch.
Under the circumstances, the U.S. would do better to tell the Palestinians there is no deal to be had unless they -- both the Fatah and Hamas -- demonstrably accommodate the reality that Israel is a legitimate, permanent part of the region. Otherwise, it is for Israel to determine how best to defend itself from those "challenges over the horizon... I think there is an opportunity [for peace], but for many reasons it's not on the tips of everyone's tongue. People in Israel aren't waking up every day and wondering if tomorrow there will be peace because there is a sense of security and a sense of accomplishment and of prosperity."IOW, if Israel were made to feel more secure, there would be peace, but there can't be peace because Israel feels too secure. Kerry's perfect for Zero's SoS.
