Full title :

Kerry: “Israel can either be Jewish or democratic. It cannot be both. And it won’t ever really be at peace.”

…”The truth is that trends on the ground, violence, terrorism, settlement expansion and the seemingly endless occupation, they are combining to destroy hopes for peace on both sides and increasingly cementing any reversible — an irreversible one state reality that most people do not actually want."Today, there are a similar number of Jews and Palestinians living between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean sea.

They have a choice. They can choose to live together in one state or they can separate into two states. But here is a fundamental reality. If the choice is one state, Israel can either be Jewish or democratic. It cannot be both. And it won’t ever really be at peace.

Moreover, the Palestinians will never fully realize their vast potential in a homeland of their own with a one state solution.”

"The Obama administration’s parting assault on Israel continues.

Kerry is actually right that Israel won’t ever really be at peace, but if he thinks that a two-state solution will bring about that peace, then he is even more delusional than he seems to be. Israel will not be at peace as long as there are believers in the Qur’an, which tells Muslims, “drive them out from where they drove you out” (2:191).

Meanwhile, Kerry’s statement about Israel not being able to be Jewish and democratic is flatly false. There are Israeli Arab Knesset members now. Non-Jews in Israel, including Muslims, enjoy more rights than non-Muslims do in majority-Muslim countries."

I don’t really know much about Judaism, but on the surface this statement sounds ludicrous.

And I say that the only peace in the middle east is the peace within Israel’s borders. Outside is carnage and chaos. Half a million dead next door in Syria, Christians wiped off the face of the map everywhere our proxies have taken control, half a dozen wars all across the middle east and north Africa, most of them with our fingerprints on them.

Only within Israel is there peace.

Remember when the Left used to get incredibly upset over the United States trying to impose its will on other nations and cultures?

Kerry’s claim makes no sense whatsoever.

Kerry is right for once. Non-Jews within Israel are second-class citizens.

Israel is the only country in the middle east where jews, muslims, and Christians live together in peace.

Hmmm...Pat Buchannan said the same thing about 20 years ago. He was looking at demographics of Israel’s Arab citizen’s birth rates comparted to Israeli Jews.

Wth does that even mean?
Can our country be Judaeo- Christian or democratic but not both?
Can Saudi Arabia be muslim or democratic? Are we giving them a choice?

Democrats are racist Jew haters.

Why U.S. Jews continue to vote for democrats in large numbers
is a mystery to me.

It is Israel’s conundrum. There are two populations in the land. One wants to survive and the other wants to kill the other.

There is no peaceful solution, and eventually there will be action deciding the final outcome.

Yes, this fool will be gone in three weeks, but we’ll have obama with his mouth in perpetual motion for as long as he’s around.

If cankles has a vision for 2020, her mouth will also be quite active.

The best hope for both is prison.

Kerry is either an idiot or a Persian spy.

Well, many including myself thought Kerry was a NVA spy.
