History of the People: Articulating ‘Palestine’ Despite Israeli Hasbara, by Ramzy Baroud, January 12, 2013
Truth is quite another matter!

TEL AVIV – Now that he has secured his second term, President Barack Obama has already secretly pledged to the Palestinians he will press Israel into a new round of so-called land-for-peace negotiations, a top Palestinian Authority negotiator told KleinOnline.
The negotiator said top members of the Obama administration told the Palestinians the U.S. president will renew talks aimed at creating a Palestinian state in the so-called 1967 borders – meaning in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and, notably, eastern Jerusalem.
The negotiator further revealed when it comes to dividing Jerusalem, Obama wants to rehash what is known as the Clinton parameters.
That formula, pushed by Bill Clinton during the Camp David talks in 2000, called for Jewish areas of Jerusalem to remain Israeli while the Palestinians will get sovereignty over neighborhoods that are largely Arab.
KleinOnline previously reported how Palestinians are building illegally in Jewish-owned areas of Jerusalem, changing facts on the ground and resulting in Arab majorities on certain neighborhoods.
This is not the first time the Palestinians are claiming Obama will push for new talks during a second term.

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT
TO THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY
United Nations Headquarters
New York, New York
snip
"Upon taking office, I appointed a Special Envoy for Middle East Peace, and America has worked steadily and aggressively to advance the cause of two states -- Israel and Palestine -- in which peace and security take root, and the rights of both Israelis and Palestinians are respected. "

I will also continue to seek a just and lasting peace between Israel, Palestine, and the Arab world. (Applause.) We will continue to work on that issue. Yesterday, I had a constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Abbas. We have made some progress. Palestinians have strengthened their efforts on security. Israelis have facilitated greater freedom of movement for the Palestinians. As a result of these efforts on both sides, the economy in the West Bank has begun to grow. But more progress is needed. We continue to call on Palestinians to end incitement against Israel, and we continue to emphasize that America does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements. (Applause.)
The time has come -- the time has come to re-launch negotiations without preconditions that address the permanent status issues: security for Israelis and Palestinians, borders, refugees, and Jerusalem. And the goal is clear: Two states living side by side in peace and security -- a Jewish state of Israel, with true security for all Israelis; and a viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that ends the occupation that began in 1967, and realizes the potential of the Palestinian people. (Applause.)

"Together, we must build new coalitions that bridge old divides -- coalitions of different faiths and creeds; of north and south, east, west, black, white, and brown."

After reading up on it a bit, I believe the Israeli account that Jordan, Egypt and Syria all were escalating to go to war with Israel, and Israel got the first punch in.
Jerusalem will be divided on September 23, 2015.

Anybody else see a pattern here???
Of course anyone who questions Israel must be an anti-Semite! No, I do not hate Jews but I also do not automatically hold to the notion that Israel can do no wrong. As for Hammond, I do not know much about him but what he has written here can be found in other sources. If you wish to take issue with what he has written then do so but do not assume that everyone who questions the actions of Israel is automatically a Jew-hater. As for the issue of who fired first this is just a question of historical accuracy.
Kinh Husseinv once said that a top Egyptian general lied to him about the number of planes Egypt had available to use against Israel. Arabs have a hard time with reality.
Hammond is a Palestinian loving Israel hater. He distorts history.
See his anti-Israel by numbers

Sure seems that way. I never heard of him before and I hope he crawls back into his hole soon.
