Kerry Threatens Israel with 'Third Intifada'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 11/07/2013 | Gil Ronen

US Secretary of State John Kerry sounded a threatening tone in an interview with Channel 2 television that was aired Thursday, and warned of “chaos” and a “third intifada” if Israel's “peace talks” with the Palestinian Authority (PA) fail.

"Failure of the talks will increase Israel's isolation in the world,” Kerry said. “The alternative to getting back to the talks is a potential of chaos. I mean, does Israel want a third intifada?”

“Intifada,” an Arabic term meaning “shaking off the yoke,” has been used to describe a violent uprising in 1987-1993 and a murderous terror war in 2000-2009 that killed 1,178 Israelis, 70% of them civilians, in over 20,000 attacks that included 144 suicide bombings.

The “West Bank” is the term that was used to refer to the Biblical heartland of Judea and Samaria when it was under Jordanian occupation, in 1949-1967.

Kerry also said Thursday he has made "significant progress" in the course of the last 24 hours in some areas of Israeli-Palestinian talks, after reaffirming US opposition to Israeli settlements.

In the last week, the Obama regime has decided to
1. Tell Israel to give up land for no peace, or violence will be proper
2. Ignore the Iranian parliament chanting “Death to America” and proposing reducing sanctions on Iran, even as Iran pushes to keep nuclear capabilities in any deal.

Mere words cannot convey the ire I feel towards this mealy-mouthed Obama appointed asswipe.

“Proceed carefully and QUIETLY”??? That’s the hallmark of the obama administration, isn’t it? To do things “QUIETLY” and behind closed doors.

Cupcake wants to “QUIETLY” turn America into a Liberal wasteland because he feels like he was treated unfairly as a drug and homosexual addicted teenager.

As a liberal wasteland, America will have no way to support a government so that will leave the door open for obama’s pals in the muslim brotherhood to come in and try (TRY) to take over.

Good Luck with that you phony imitation president. There are 150 million gun owners in America, with 400 million firearms that are betting you won’t do it and if you try you will fail.

Kerry’s comments about further isolation with Israel is a direct threat to Israel; a threat that it either go along with what the U.S. demands or the U.S. will be part of efforts to further isolate Israel.
