(IsraelNN.com) Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu issued a sharp response Sunday to United States pressure to stop Jews from building in parts of Jerusalem claimed by the Palestinian Authority. Israel's sovereignty in Jerusalem is not up for debate, Netanyahu said, and Jews are permitted to build in any part of the capital city, as are Arabs.
Netanyahu implied that the U.S. request was racist, saying before the weekly Cabinet meeting, Imagine what would happen if Jews were forbidden to live or to buy apartments in certain parts of London, New York, Paris or Rome. There would be an international outcry."
"All the more, we cannot to a decree like this regarding Jerusalem, he said.

I’d pay to see those ACORN thug-wanna-be’s try and push around the Israelis.
Go Bibi!
Oh by the way, zer0 said it’s ok for the neighbors to have nuks.
Actually, there wouldn’t be an international outcry over New York, Paris or Rome, either.
Nuks: Just do it.
Sort of like telling the Hondurans that they cannot legally remove a President that violated the Constitution...
So far, the Zero has failed in his domestic and foreign policies... the poor guy can't get a "win."
Stay strong Israel!!!! pay no attention to the obama administration,they want to destroy you’re country just like they are doing to ours..
He isn’t paying attention because he knows there will be a “peace” agreement.
Anything obama touches he destroys............
Except for parts of Austin, Dallas, and Houston, I think most Texans would say **** the PA.
What BIBI should have said is..... Imagine muslims being forbidden to buy in London, Paris, Rome.
You would have the lefties having convulsion if it were the case.
It is most unwise to violate a lease agreement when GOD is the landlord!

It is so OUTRAGEOUS that Obama and company think they can tell Israel where to build in their own city. DO THEY REALIZE that the arabs SELL their land to the Jews? They take the money and move out in the middle of the night so their fellow arabs don't know they sold their property to the Jews and then they take off before their fellow arabs kill them.
Bibi is the perfect man for the Israeli State today.
Bibi for President! I mean if we are going to allow someone in without proof of birth in the nation, then lets get Bibi to run for office. He does have dual citzenship and he doesn’t take any sh*t.
Man it is awful for the U.S. to be represented by madman buttcrack. It turns my stomach. Give em hell Bibi!
Refreshing to see a real leader stand up for his people.
And that mangy hotel, in the previous post, will look quite different in a few months.
