US deal will trade off ‘Jewish’ Israel for 1967 lines — report
The Times of Israel ^ | 12/29/2013 | Elhanan Miller

Posted on 12/29/2013 2:56:47 PM PST by Former Fetus

US Secretary of State John Kerry will offer Israeli and Palestinian negotiators a political trade-off: Israeli recognition of the 1967 lines as a basis for the future Palestinian state, in return for Palestinian recognition of Israel as the state of the Jewish people, Palestinian sources told the Saudi daily Al-Watan on Sunday.

According to the sources, the mutual recognition will constitute the core of a framework agreement to be signed by the end of January, and negotiated in greater detail during the following months.

“The coming weeks will be difficult for the Palestinian and Israeli sides, since they will need to make tough decisions,” a source told Al-Watan. “On the one hand, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will need to live with a text speaking of the 1967 borders, and the Palestinians, for their part, will need to live with a text speaking of Israel’s Jewishness.”

For the Palestinians, the Jewishness of the State of Israel is a matter of policy. For Israel, the 1967 lines are a matter of survival!

KERRY, GO HOME!

Everytime, Israel trades off land for peace.

The ink isn't even dry on the paper and the muzzies are shooting again.

Of course this will never work. The Palis are constitutionally incapable of acknowledging a Jewish state on Moslem ground. It would be a total defeat of Islam and a betrayal of Allah-- and a death sentence to Moslem who colluded in it.

Surely Kerry is aware of this, so the entire proposal is fundamentally dishonest and false.

Heinz needs to go away. He’s been around since those days when he slandered our troops in Vietnam, and here he is in 2013, essentially kowtowing to terrorists.

Kerry, GO AWAY!

Abbas just might... so as to put Israel in a box. But what about Hamas? Has o-so-smart-Kerry though that Abbas and the PA don’t represent all the Palestinians?

Isreal has been making “tough” decisions for the last 30 years and has gotten SCREWED every time they made them. I would tell Kerry to kiss my ASS!!!

The language could be in block letters a first grader could read.... The PA won’t sign....

They will never sign a agreement where Israel has a right to exist....

I have been reading about "blood moons". Every time there has been 4 consecutive blood-red moons that coincided with major Jewish festivals it has meant upheaval for the Jewish people. In the last 500 years they have marked the expulsion of the Jews from Spain, the War of Independence and the Six Day War. NASA says that there will be another tetrad, falling on Pessach 2014, Sukkot 2014, Pessach 2015 and Sukkot 2015.

What I am trying to say is that it is not just me, or other Freepers, saying that next year will be critical for Israel. Not even the Times of Israel and their article It’s going to get bad fast between Israel and the US. The Lord Himself has got His billboard ready to announce some major event to the world.

The administration floated this “plan” a few years ago. Bibi told them to stuff it back then. What makes them think anything has changed?

As if he, Kerry, is Supreme Boss of Planet Earth and working at the behest of the Planet Krypton.

The US has become a standing joke under the Obama administration.

As our own original immigrants learned, trading land for peace is rarely a good idea.

I would like to see the long list of things the Arabs have given up in the interest of peace with Israel.

Zip!

Over and over again, Israel is asked to prove it’s good intentions by giving in on an issue.

Seriously folks, who can take any of these peaceniks serious?
