Following on the heels of condemnation by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon late Tuesday against Israels designation of territory in Judea and Samaria as state land, the US State Department lost no time in following suit and criticizing the Jewish state.
It was reported by Army Radio on Tuesday that Israel declared 234 hectares of territory to be state land in an area near Jericho and the Dead Sea, in a process of declaring unclaimed land as property of the state.
US State Department Spokesperson John Kirby slammed the designation by saying it has a negative impact on a two state solution, which calls to divide Israel and establish an Arab-only state of Palestine.

US OBAMA attacks Israel for 'land expropriation' Americans love Israel and hate Obama and apparently those feelings are mutual.

Ooops-my bad. I was wrong. "hec·tare ˈhekˌter/ noun noun: hectare; plural noun: hectares; symbol: ha a metric unit of square measure, equal to 100 ares (2.471 acres or 10,000 square meters)." ----------------------------- I saw 100 "ares" and thought it said 100 acres. My apologies :)

US State Department Spokesperson John Kirby slammed the designation by saying it has a negative impact on a two state solution Kirby fits in perfectly with the Arabists at State. He's finally found his true calling.

Remember when we had a State Department that 1) actually had members with measurable IQs and morals, and 2) when we respected them?
To: icwhatudo
It’s actually about one square mile, not 200k acres.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon and US State Department Spokesperson John Kirby — You two nit-wits need to recognize that Oblahblah is only going to be in the white house 310 more days and then after that the good lord willing and the creek don’t rise, we will have an American President in the white house once again and you two F’n POS will be relegated back to obscurity as it should be.

100 ares, rather than acres (1 hectare is 2.47 of the latter). One are is 100 square meters.

Israel constantly gives land back in an effort for peace, and the Evil Ones, aided by Obama apparently, only want to take more and more. The entire Sinai Peninsula, about the size of the rest of Israel, was given up, and now bunches of tiny "settlements" keep spreading like the virus that they are.
Look at what people DO with the land: Israel builds a First World nation, and all faiths are protected, and all artifacts are treasured. The Muslims drag lands back to the Third World, prevent all other faiths, and destroy all artifacts that bother them. Who are the better stewards? Who should control those lands? The answer is easy, and yet the world leaders fight for decay and destruction.

Note to UN: David, King of Israel bought the plot that became the Temple sight and had a sealed deed of trust over 3000 years ago. They won what they have now because it was God given and were given a state mandate back in 1948.
So, Unless we plan to give Manhattan back to the Indians and a few other deals we need to butt out and Shut up...
course we won’t do that an thus invoke the Holy God to cream our clocks...Good Luck America wake up before its too late.
