Netanyahu Lashes Out: 'Paris Peace Conference' Is Nothing More Than 'a Palestinian Fraud'
PJ Media ^ | Michael van der Galien

Today Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu once again shows why he's a hero of mine :

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the French government Thursday and the Palestinians in connection with the peace conference set to meet in Paris on Sunday with the participation of foreign ministers and senior diplomats from 70 countries and international organizations.

"This conference is a fraud, a Palestinian scam under French auspices, whose goal is to lead to the adoption of additional anti-Israeli positions," said Netanyahu at the beginning of a meeting with Norwegian Foreign Minister Borg Brende.

Lord knows how many different Palestinian terrorist organizations are systematically undermining every real effort at lasting peace. They do so by carrying out horrendous terror attacks, but also by political means. This "conference" falls into the latter category. As Netanyahu says, it only "moves peace backward." It's "a relic of the past. It's a final attempt to hold on to the past before the future moves in."

French President Francois Hollande already countered Netanyahu's criticism by saying he'll make sure it remains "a conference" (and not an anti-Israel slugfest) and that the main point will be to reiterate the participants' support for a two-state solution. But that's exactly where the problem lies. The Palestinians want at best a two-state solution that weakens Israel so much that the country can be destroyed militarily in one fell swoop. They're waging war by diplomatic means, not ending the war itself. Obviously, Hollande also realizes that -- he'd have to be blind, stupid and deaf not to -- but simply doesn't care.

Apparently, anti-Semitism has made such a comeback in France that it's now completely acceptable to risk the future of the world's only Jewish nation, just because a few supposed Palestinians scream that its existence is "unfair" to them.

Netanyahu should have just said that if the French government wants a peace agreement with the Palestinians they should go a head and make one.

Israel has nothing to do with it.

Why does Israel have the “privilege” of being divided by 70 other nations?! No one is talking about dividing Russia, or Great Britain, or Japan, or Mexico? Why Israel? (somewhat of a rhetorical question)
