Front-running Rep. candidate who opposed Iran deal says Middle East peace depends on more Israeli 'sacrifices.'
Front-running Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump, generally hawkish on Muslims-vs.-West issues, has alarmed some pro-Israel elements in the United Statements with a speech he delivered on Thursday.
Peace between Israel and the Palestinian Authority "has to do with Israel and whether or not Israel's willing to sacrifice certain things," Trump told the Jewish Republican Coalition. This, despite his acknowledgement that Israel had already made many difficult moves for the sake of a peace agreement.
Trump also made several remarks that were quickly accused of bearing anti-Semitic intonations. “I’m a negotiator like you folks are," he said, noting that if he had brokered the deal with Iran, it would have been on better terms for the West than the current deal negotiated by President Obama and Secretary Kerry.
Later he said, not antagonistically, “Is there anyone in this room who doesn’t negotiate deals? Probably more than any room I’ve ever spoken." He added that the Jews would not support him for president "even though you know I’m the best thing that could ever happen to Israel… You're not going to support me because I don’t want your money.â€%

Glad to know you are keeping up with facts.
69/160/ and whatever the hell we want it to be.
...
What point is there in contemplating such a snowball's chance possibility?
Look, it's coming down to the wire. Everybody wants both. But we only get to choose one.
Maybe Al Gore and his millions and millions of degrees is your guy.
Not only on this topic but also on other ones Trump’s words have been misrepresented or the media/critics have lied about what he said.
Guess somebody there liked it. He got a standing O.
Thank God he is 10 million strong on social media. This has been very effective in neutralizing the media’s effectiveness.
Did you notice how the handicapped reporter stories have evaporated? How about the accusations that there weren’t muzzies celebrating on 9-11? Those two stories so prominent a few days ago are now as if they never existed.
The media is simply muted, gelded and neutralized. They are simply not effective against Trump. Whatever lies come out against Trump, the Trump juggernaut informs his subscribers of the truth within seconds after the stories break. That is a huge amount of power.
Trump’s twitter account has added 670,000 subscribers to twitter since the first democrat debate. He is adding 10,000 subscribers or more per day. By next February he will be close to 7 million subscribers on twitter and over 6 million on Facebook. That totals around 13 million and with re-tweets we are looking at 26-39 million getting Trumps messages daily. No other candidate can even come remotely close to this kind of growth.
The media simply cannot compete against that kind of critical mass. That is one of the reasons Trump is winning and pulling away.
See you at the top President Trump!
Who the Hell is ZOA and why would any normal person care?
“I heard that speech and Trump was very clear. Whatever Israel does not want to do, Israel does not have to do.”
Glad to hear that , thank you.
It just doesn’t make any sense, but they do and have since FDR and that bastard turned a ship full of jewish refugees back to Germany and their certain deaths.
You’re wrong and it wont be the last time.
I read that Trump’s IQ is 156. No source was given.
Probably much higher. Just ask any Trumpski.
Well Trump’s educational background is very, very impressive.
For real. He is quite, intelligent. There is no question.
I don’t doubt that, at all.
TheLeft keeps plugging away and some on our side of the aisle keep biting...
Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader
PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....
GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!
Good points.
