"The task of forming an international coalition to thwart Iran's nuclear program will be made easier if progress is made in peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel has said, according to sources in Washington. Israeli TV stations had reported Monday night that Emanuel had actually linked the two matters, saying that the efforts to stop Iran hinged on peace talks with the Palestinians." - Jerusalem Post, May 4
Rahm Emanuel is a good man and a good friend of Israel, but in a highly publicized recent statement he linked American efforts to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons to Israeli efforts toward establishing a Palestinian state. This is dangerous.
I have long favored the two-state solution, as do most Israelis and American supporters of Israel. I have also long opposed civilian settlements deep into the West Bank. I hope that Israel does make efforts, as it has in the past, to establish a Palestinian state as part of an overall peace between the Jewish state and its Arab and Muslim neighbors.

“lost heart” s/b “lose heart”
My exact thought!
American Jews had better be aware of the European attitude towards them, the Brits have denied entry to Savage and I believe it is a form of anti-semitic thinking in Europe. Before too long it will be encouraging the American Jews to NOT visit their countries, even the leftists will not be welcome. The influence of the Islamic forces in France, Germany and many others have become flagrant hate towards any Jews and this is evident with all the burning of Israeli flags and threats from Muslim youth to not enter “their” neighborhoods or walk through their streets. The police have run from their tyranny and hate, more of this is on the way. Wake up smell the rot that has taken over in many , many countries, look at Sweden, Malmo is swimming in Muslim activism as well as countless German and Franch cities. Obama is well liked over there because they think he is not a supporter of Israel, and so it goes...
I personally don’t think a two state solution will work. Israel was told to concede land and the attacks on Israel will stop. Israel complied and the land was used to escelate the attacks. This has happened continuously throughout history. I believe that if two states are formed, it will be demanded that Israel give up more...and more...and more. The attacks will continue.
