The U.S. House approved a Democrat-backed resolution Friday calling for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict -- but did so without support from the four far-left freshmen congresswomen known as "the Squad."

The squad opposes for entirely different reasons than to "make peace", claiming not enough empathy for the downtrodden palestinians.

I listened to these proceedings. Democrats are NOT “pro-Israel,” though again and again they preface their arguments by saying the old: “nobody is more pro-Israel than ME...”

I was at Gush Katif in the very last days. “Land for Peace” does NOT work. The goal of Hamas and even the PA is the destruction of Israel.

The media has turned David into Goliath.

I hope that Jews will see the light and start voting Republican. I have never understood why more of my fellow Jews don’t.

You should have heard all the praise for “my wonderful friend, Rashida...”

Democrats sell Israel down the river whilst repeatedly proclaiming their love... They are the real modern day “Judas.”

Even Yahoo did a better job on reporting the story.

In warning to Netanyahu, US House endorses two-state solution

The Democrats were the four left-wing congresswomen dubbed "The Squad." They objected that the resolution's authors, in a bid to gain broad support, removed a call to end Israel's "occupation" of Palestinian land.

"This resolution not only endorses an unrealistic, unattainable solution -- one that Israel has made impossible -- but also one that legitimizes inequality, ethnic discrimination and inhumane conditions," said Representative Rashida Tlaib, a Squad member who is of Palestinian descent.

Sounds like the DemoRat Party itself needs its own ‘two state solution’. Anything that divides that wicked Party is a solution for a righteous cause.

Yahoo did not ‘report’ the issue. The article you referenced is by Agence France-Presse (AFP). It was posted on the yahoo.com web site.

Thanks for the clarification. There's still hope that President Trump will tweet about it.

The U.S. House approved a Democrat-backed resolution...
s/b, the bipartisan concensus against this measure failed to win enough votes in the face of the dictates of the Demagogic Party bosses who kept just enough votes in line to get it passed. It has no chance in the Senate. Thanks chief lee runamok.

“I hope that Jews will see the light and start voting Republican. I have never understood why more of my fellow Jews don’t.”

Fighting stereotypes. Jews are supposedly super smart, so to debunk that myth they have to be especially stupid in their politics.

I’ve never seen polling of American Jews that indicates Israel is any kind of priority for them.

The resolution supports continued military aid to Israel, of course they're going to vote against it. Different motivation than Republicans.
