The left-leaning blog ThinkProgress isn’t happy with Sen. Chuck Schumer’s statement that Palestinians and Arabs “don’t believe there should be an Israel.” Here’s the text of the statement Schumer made at a Jewish function this past Sunday:
The reason there is no peace in the Middle East is very simple. It’s because the majority of Palestinians and the majority of Arabs don’t believe there should be an Israel. It’s that simple. Anyone who tries to figure out a way to solve this conflict without realizing that truth will never get anywhere.
ThinkProgress cites various polls that seem to contradict Schumer’s statements:
Polling conducted in 2009 indicated that 74 percent of Palestinians support a two-state solution based around the contours of the international consensus. Polling conducted in 2010 found that 71 percent support peace negotiations with Israel and that a majority of Palestinians oppose rocket attacks on the country.

For the first time in years I agree with Schmucky. Am I losing it?
Read the Koran.
They think there should be no Jews.
Is he speaking to 'Agudat Yisra'el in that video? It is a chillul HaShem that Charedim would give a platform to such a man.
Liberals have such an aversion to cold hard facts.
Polling must be very instructive. The jewish community is bailing on Obamao and chuck is worried about his donors.
One question though. Which Israel does Schmucky believe in - Netanyahu’s or 0bama’s?
No, just as a blind squirrel finds nut every now and then, every now and then, a correct thought finds its way into Chucky’s tiny, nearly vestigial cerebral cortex. And, even more remarkable, this one must have brushed against the speech neurons which, like Obozo, occupy nearly all of his 21 cubic centimeter cranial cavity.

Better tell mac, the liar, daddy the same thing.
“Schumer to Jewish Audience: Arabs and Palestinians ‘Don’t Believe There Should Be An Israel’
Neither does BHO.
Perhaps if Sasquatch and Malaria spent a year living in a kibbutz in Sderot or Ashkelon, 0bama might have a different attitude.
The stopped clock oxymoron.

Chuck is right on this issue, and will support Israel. Which carries over into nothing else.
Noooo, kidding. Who would think that? /sarc
