U.S.: No Need for PA to Recognize Israel
Israel National News ^ | 3/9/2014 | Elad Benari

Posted on 03/08/2014 7:09:08 PM PST by sheikdetailfeather

The United States believes there is no need for the Palestinian Authority (PA) to recognize Israel as a Jewish state as part of a peace agreement, State Department Spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Saturday.

Psaki, who spoke to the PA-based Arabic-language Al-Quds newspaper, said, “The American position is clear, Israel is a Jewish state. However, we do not see a need that both sides recognize this position as part of the final agreement.”

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has been adamant on the PA recognizing Israel as a Jewish state, explaining that the Arabs’ refusal to recognize Israel stands at the heart of the conflict.

If they refuse to recognize Israel, then how can they enter into a treaty with Israel?

Exactly. One-state solution “from the river to the sea” and all.

Appalling...........I feel so sorry for our allies. Obama is selling them all out. Our word and bond are toast with the Bamster at the helm.

It’s a set up....clear as day....

When talks fail and that is a certainty...Israel will be blamed for being to strident with their terms.

Seriously I don’t understand why Bibi does not throw Kerry out the negotiations for bad faith and ask another western power to mediate....

This Administration’s policy is: The enemy of my friend is my friend.

Allies?

Worry about the American people, screwed by
the HATED, EXEMPT, treasonous Congress which
has upheld lawlessness from the DO”J” to what
once was, the CIA, now the MB/alQaeda’s American HQ
to the IRSS.

As long as Hussein Obama can “claim that he brokered the final peace between Israel and the Muslims”, the details are insignificant.

Because all of the other western powers hate Israel too.

I am heartbroken for my beloved country. But I have hope that we can resurrect this once great country again. Our allies are smaller and weaker. Who will resurrect them? They believed in us........Clinton and Obama both pledged to protect the Ukraine from a Russian invasion if the
Ukraine would disarm. That worked out well for them, yes? Obama dismantled the missile defense system promised to Poland, et al. We are no longer respected or trusted but we have a new generation coming up that trusted Obama and are awakening to the fact that he is a liar and a fraud. I have hope they will change the course this country is following.

I totally agree with you. My main concerns are: can the American people hold out until someone qualified for the office of President is elected, and can Israel hold out until this steaming pile of buffoon is out of office.

Clinton, Yeltsin and John Major signed the agreement. And Obama reaffirmed it in 2009. Yeppers.

Put people in power who neither believe nor have any knowledge of the Bible, perhaps even contempt, and this is what you get. Like watching a child stick a table knife into an electric socket, over, and over again.
