Olmert: ‘Right-Wing Americans’ to Blame for Peace Failure
Arutz Sheva ^ | 5/5/12 | Maayana Miskin

Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has accused right-wing Americans of being responsible for the lack of peace between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Wealthy Americans ousted him from power and derailed negotiations, he told CNN.

Olmert said he was committed to reaching peace, “But I had to fight against superior powers, including millions and millions of dollars that were transferred from this country [the United States] by figures which were from the extreme right wing that were aimed to topple me as prime minister of Israel.”

Olmert left office amidst accusations of corruption involving several different affairs. His bureau chief has since been convicted in one case.

He declined to name specific individuals who gave money to get him out of office, but said, “I know the names.”

He argued that most Israelis would have supported his planned deal with the PA.

Wealthy American right-wingers paid Abbas to ignore his offer of 95% of Judah and Samaria? And most Israelis would have supported that, plus his proposed land bridge between Judah and Samaria and Ghaza? Is Kadima the party of ass clowns, or what?

I blame the right-wing for the fact that Israel still exists.

I’ll wear that blame with pride, and also blame the right wing for the fact that Israel ever existed in the first place.

Sure those were Right wing extremist boogie men who caused Olmert to rape one of his female staff members too!

Remember, there is no end to the blame Lie-berals will attach to the supposed demi-gods of American conservatism.

We are guilty of being the first nation recognizing Israel. We are also guilty of supplying the best US weapons to Israel for FREE. The weapons we give to Israel are more advanced than those supplied to our own troops. Once again, Israel has it's own ABM shield while the USA has none.

Go suck eggs, you socialist POS.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
Wealthy Americans ousted him from power and derailed negotiations, he told CNN... He declined to name specific individuals who gave money to get him out of office, but said, "I know the names."
That's a classic demagogue tactic. What an asshole.

Mr. Ohlmert ALWAYS has the option to move to the Gaza Strip. He can have his peace there.

They will welcome him warmly, and let him stay in an historic location, the same place where they kept Gilad Shalit. If they demand the release of terrorists to free him, however, I for one will laugh.

We are guilty of being the first nation recognizing Israel.

While Truman was the first to recognize the authority of the Israeli provisional government, the Soviet Union was the first nation to accord de jure recognition of Israel on 5/17/1948.

The soviet objective was to humiliate GB. A few years later, they were the first, via Czechoslovakia, to arm Egypt in defiance of the Tripartite Agreement.

We need to understand that there are big-time Quislings, “closet” anti-Semites, and yes, a few really REALLY stupid Israelis (also in our own government). For this poor old guy, let’s suggest he “make peace” (with whom? will they hold their knives back long enough to sign a document with him) ... let him give away the rest of the land of Israel and compress his State into, say, one room at the Tel Aviv Hilton Hotel. Of course, he would have to agree to fly his national flag only on the inside of the room, and to check out at the end of the week. (What a complete idiot!)
