When Silvan Shalom said, "I know just how much President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton are friends of Israel and committed to its security," he was lying. He knows perfectly well that Obama is no friend of Israel is nor is Clinton. The two of them want Israel to make impossible concessions. They want Israel to put not only its security, but its existence in jeopardy. They want Israel to allow the terrorist group Fatah to control Judea and Samaria. If Obama and Clinton were friends, they would be looking out for us. Thats what real friends do.

...exist as the nation-state of the Jewish people - based on UN Resolution 181 - there is little about which to talk with them but the on-going management of the situation... ...and perhaps this is all they want and can at this stage, despite their calls for an independent state, one of which they rejected as late as the end of 2008 when Ehud Olmert offered them one on more than 27% of the disputed territories, based on Mahmoud Abbas's statement to the Washington Post the other day.

you cant make a deal with people that want to destroy you no matter how much you offer up! will the other party ever change???? I doubt it! given the reality it is a sad situation all around.
