The new units are a result of strong pressure and even threats by coalition partner Shas, a request by Prime Minister Netanyahu to the U.S., one-time permission for a precise amount of housing units, and a coordinated, weak condemnation.

I had NO idea Obama and his cronies are dictating Israeli policy with such a heavy hand. Is there more to the story? Has the American government ( not the American people) already turned their backs on israel? Gen 12:3,4

Have I been wrong all of this time?

We are going to find out real soon,Iran will have nukes soon and I believe Iran will Nuke Israel as soon as capable. Russian defenses will be up very soon. After that, it will be too late for Israel to do anything but wait to Die. The clock is ticking.

BiBi, it seems, is following the McCain/Grahamnesty example of selling out his people. Another gutless wonder.

If true, not much of an issue. Circumstances will be different by the time Bibi needs to announce a new phase of construction, whether that's 6 or 12 months.

IOW, this supposed collusion between Shas, Likud, and the Obama administration, is propaganda dreamed up by the PLO.
