U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday said Israel's building of settlements on occupied land was endangering Middle East peace, voicing unusually frank frustration with America's longtime ally.

In a swiftly issued statement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Kerry of bias. He said Israel did not need to be lectured to by foreign leaders and looked forward to working with incoming President-elect Donald Trump, who has vowed to pursue more pro-Israeli policies.

The Bible states that once all nations turn against Israel we will face the End of Days.

Is Obama trying to force the Apocolypse? Evil festers in the White House

Not a question you want to openly ask on the streets of Egypt, Lybia or Syria.

Israel has been an island of peace, stability and democracy in the Middle East. In contrast, everything Obama and Kerry touched turned to crap. They won’t be happy until the entire Middle East is in flames. More Arab refugees that way.

I think there may be a worse parting shot coming. I think Obama and Kerry may use the upcoming Paris conference as a basis to draft and ram through a UN Security Council motion recognizing Palestine as a state based on the 1967 Israeli borders. Such a UNSC action will, of course, take land from Israel and give it to the Palestinians. Israel will refuse to comply and many UN members will then institute an economic boycott of Israel. This action would likely start a war and Obama and Kerry will have succeeded in getting many Jews killed.

President Trump will issue a warning that an attack on Israel is an attack on the U.S. and that if it happens, then all bets are off.
