As Ambassador Bolton said in the clip below from Fox News, Obama killed the peace process by pushing this anti-Semitic, evil resolution. He killed the peace process and all prospects for peace by destroying the foundation of the process. That foundation was "land for peace."
Land for peace formed the basis of UN Security Council resolution 242 from the end of the 1967 Six Day War. It stipulated that in exchange for Arab recognition of Israel and peace with the Jewish state, Israel would cede some of the land that it took control over during the course of that war.
But Friday's resolution says that Israel has no right to any of the land, that the presence of Israelis in that land -- yes, including the Western Wall -- is illegal. So Israel has no land to give and the Arabs will give no peace. And that is that.
The other thing the resolution does is annul all the bilateral agreements that Israel signed with the PLO, which formed the basis of their peace process. Those agreements were all witnessed by the US, the EU and Russia. And those agreements committed the sides to the bilateral framework for resolving their conflict. In signing the agreements, the Palestinians committed themselves to not going to the UN or any other international body to coerce a settlement with Israel. Their UN strategy is a material breach of the agreements they signed.
Friday's resolution makes zero mention of any of those agreements. It pretended they don't exist. And in so doing, it killed them. They are dead. For 23 years, confined by the Oslo framework, Israel was wary of taking the unilateral step of applying its law to all or parts of Judea and Samaria just as it was wary of building new Jewish communities in the areas. But now that those agreements are dead, Israel has no such limitations on its actions. It can act unilaterally just as it did in the past.
To be clear, this resolution is terrible for Israel. But it is mainly terrible for Jews in the West, and particularly in America.
Some argue that the resolution increases the threat that the International Criminal Court will try Israeli leaders or even private citizens. But this argument makes no sense. Israel is not a signatory to the ICC convention. It has no jurisdiction over us. The greatest victims of this resolution are not Israeli Jews, they are the Jews of the Diaspora, and particularly Jews in the West. Harassment of Jews in the US, Canada and Europe by Muslim thugs and their useful leftist idiots both on and off campus will rise as a result of this resolution.
There is an ironic silver lining to this resolution for Israel.
First, there is the obvious silver lining which is that we don't need to lie about Obama anymore. He revealed himself in his final month as the Jew hating, Israel hating bastard we have always known him to be but our leaders, out of fear that he would act as he did on Friday felt compelled to pretend that the man who gave the bomb to Iran is a friend of ours.
Second, and more importantly, there is the irony of the consequences of the resolution.
By joining the UN gang rape of Israel in an act of diplomatic terrorism against the Jewish people and the Jewish state, Obama destroyed not only all prospects for peace. He destroyed all prospects for Palestinian state. He destroyed all prospects for Israeli withdrawal to the 1949 armistice lines. He destroyed all prospect of any Israeli withdrawal at all.
And he even managed to weaken the UN which now faces a massive cut in funding from the Trump White House and the Republican controlled Congress.
The news of this resolution hit us like a brick wall. It hurts to see a room full of well dressed, well schooled, supposedly cultured and caring people acting like a lynch mob of Cossacks setting fire to synagogues and attacking Jewish villagers with pitchforks. It is nauseating beyond measure to watch Samantha Power, who branded herself as "Miss Genocide," as in, the redhead who fights for the powerless, standing with murderers against innocent, law abiding, human rights respecting, good Jews.
But we've been through much worse and survived and prospered. Samantha Power won't even merit a footnote in history, except in the section on the greatest hypocrites in the early 21st century.
Obama will go on to become Jimmy Carter on steroids. He will be relentless, and powerful. But we will survive him as well.
And John Kerry will remembered first and foremost for betraying the men that served with him in Vietnam. All the treacheries he committed since, including this one, were preordained the moment he stepped out of the crowd and libeled his brothers in arms.
With G-d's help, we Jews will survive and thrive and move on from strength to strength, as our forefathers did, as we have always done
Oh my, and there's more!
When will they learn that Muslims are not advocates of peace? They use the pretense as a diversionary tactic only.
Pray for Israel. Jan 20 can’t come soon enough.
I wonder how many liberal Jews will start to see the light? If that happens in large numbers then the Democrats will start to lose all power, and Obama and the Democrats will become totally impotent for evermore.
I keep think of Hannukah.
There is one of those turning points of history. The Greeks ordered the Jews to abandon the worship of God, to embrace polytheism and the cult of the body.
One man said “no” - a Jewish priest in a little town called Modin - he slew a Greek official who ordered him to make a sacrifice to the Greek idol Zeus.
He lit the revolt for Jewish independence and defeated an empire. All it takes is one person to take a stand against the dark forces in the world.
Now Israel has to follow in the footsteps of its ancestors. Again, Jewish freedom is at stake. And the Jewish people are called to fight for it - a call that must be heeded again.
Israel will win.
Well, that’s a different view. I don’t think the Arabs see it the same way.
All of this bullish action by the U.N. and Zer0 will be a footnote in history after Trump takes over the mantles of power. The U.N.’s standing on U.S. soil may well be jeopardized in their short sighted group assault on Israel.
But it now seems that war is almost a necessity, if not a foregone conclusion.
Obama knows that Trump will be “boxed in” to counter this action. Therefore creating even more hatred from the enemy. Its a lesson in political fuse lighting. Obama is the master agitator. Its all he has ever done well at.
“First we come for the Saturday people, then we come for the Sunday people.”
That’s in the Koran: kill the Jews first, then the Christians. If you worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, then you’re a target of the Mohammedans. Bottom line.
Here in America, though, you get to be an armed target. Got CCW?
How do you kill something that didn't exist in the first place?
My guess-0!
The so-called “peace process” was always a phoney endeavor, but now there need be no more pretense for maintaining this fiction. In some way, this fiasco may turn out to be a benefit to Israel in the long term. The UN and BHO, in their zeal to harm Israel in any manner, may have actually given Israel license to finally act in their own best interests.
Sadly I agree, but yet hope springs eternal that many do. I guess time will tell.
I hope they do. But i work with one who thinks Obama is the best president ever. I just don’t get it.

Foreign Funding Bankrolls Anti-Netanyahu Campaign – Flies in 5-Man Obama Team
http://www.imra.org.il/story.php3?id=66198
There’s a pattern...
I hear you, and sometimes it is hard for people to honestly see their heroes for what they are. However, when they finally do it is like flipping a switch and there is no going back. It may not happen overnight, but hopefully Caroline Glick has planted some seeds that will, in the end, result is a plush rain forest. You even have an opportunity to assist in that growth, merely by sharing her article and engaging that person in casual conversation about their take on it.
When the final tally is made, I wonder how many people Obama will have killed?
“To be clear, this resolution is terrible for Israel. But it is mainly terrible for Jews in the West, and particularly in America.”
And I bet the vast majority of them will STILL vote Democrat.
