During President Obama's second term in office, Secretary of State John Kerry, like his boss and other members of the same peapod (Samantha Power, Susan Rice, Joe Biden, Chuck Hagel, etc.), liked to warn Israel about such things as its isolation and alienation if it did not agree to Arab demands to return to its pre-'67 war, '49 armistice lines (they were never borders) which made it an over-sized ghetto, 9-15 miles wide at its waist, where most of its population and infrastructure are located. President George W. Bush commented that Texas had driveways larger than that. I don't know about driveways, but I also don't doubt the size of some Lone Star ranches. And I'm pretty sure Mrs. Obama had to travel farther than that for shopping trips to Target. Others, like President Jimmy Carter, supposedly worried/worry (and even wrote books) about Israel's soul and looming "apartheid nature" if it insists on the more secure, defensible, real borders that UNSC Resolution 242 promised in the wake of the '67 fighting--a war Israel was forced to fight after being blockaded by Egypt (a casus belli), shelled by Jordan, abandoned by the UN Emergency Force placed in Sinai after the '56 war (largely fought over another blockade and acts of terror), and other hostile acts and constant threats of annihilation. All of 242's architects (Lord Caradon, Eugene Rostow, etc.)--and Presidents Johnson, Reagan, and others (including George W. Bush in his letter to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon)--agreed that Israel would never return to those pre-'67 Auschwitz lines. That, dear readers, is what the "settlement" issue is mostly all about...besides Jews having both modern, religious, and historical connections to Judea and Samaria (only since the 20th century, called the "West Bank") for over three thousand years.

Trump should tell Longface that if the Arabs don’t leave Israel alone we will “razed their villages in the fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan.”
Tell that to Jim’s IT guy. His format obliterates them without warning.
Pro tips:
I've posted over 21,000 articles on FR -- those two tips work 100% of the time.
If you want to learn more, please allow me to refer you to the HTML Sandbox series of tutorial threads. They are fairly easy to follow.
Kerry is Irish? No the family name was Kohn ne Cohen before they converted, can anyone say self hating Jew?
Advising Abbas is a violation of Fed Law, but its not the Hatch act. Its some never used act, I cannot remember its name.
Abbas just bought himself a 50 million dollar luxury plane.
So poor Fakestinians starve while Abbas lives in luxury on out dime.
The Logan Act. Never used. Arguably unconstitutional.
"..???..OK, you two play nice and eat your pancakes"
which one is washing and which one is drying?
“Kerry is Irish? No the family name was Kohn ne Cohen before they converted, can anyone say self hating Jew?”
He may be Jewish under the Nuremberg laws, but not according to normative Jewish law (Halacha). His non-Jewish mother breaks the link.
Horse face traitor. Boy the commies love to yell Logan Act. Except when they blatently violate it.
They won’t starve so long as there are Jewish employers they can work for.
Even easier, use Freerepublic Posting Form Enhancer:
And Trump should pronounce it as "Jen-Jis" Khan ...
