Kerry to speak on Middle East peace on Wednesday
2016-12-28
[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] U.S. Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry
Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, unsuccessful presidential candidate, and utterly failed Secretary of State...
will make remarks regarding Middle East peace on Wednesday and discuss next steps needed to resolve the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict, State Department front man Mark Toner said on Tuesday.

Toner rejected claims that the B.O. regime had pushed for a United Nations
...where theory meets practice and practice loses...
Security Council resolution demanding an end to Israeli settlement building. The United States abstained in the Security Council decision, which passed with 14 votes in favor.

"There was nothing pre-cooked, this was not some move orchestrated by the United States," Toner said.

#15  That building needs to be abated for hazardous materials and the steel needs to be melted for scrap. It's the only way.

#14  It just boggles the mind to see how O&Co carry through their chickensh*t and underhanded actions against Israel. It disgusts but does not surprise me how the other nations like the UK, France, and NZ go along with this behavior. If the Security Council wants to behave that way toward a sovereign nation, they can do it on their own nickel and a venue outside the US.

#13  Better yet setup some snipers outside the U.N, building to take blind potshots into the windows - kind of like the Palieo's launch rockets into Israel. When they complain wring your hands and say so sorry - nothing can be done... The snipers beling to a sepearate organization. Do that for a few weeks or months. Then declare a two-occupancy for the U.N. building. The upper floors are the U.N. and the lower floors are John and Jake's Pig Farm and rendering plant.

#12  We could always declare war on the UN

#11  Evidently we have no ability to stop the UN from doing more incredibly stupid things until January 20, 2017, given O&Co's determination to stick it to Israel.

Non binding resolutions by the Congress don't mean sh*t. And O&Co don't care anyway. So use the time to start a defunding bill for the UN now as soon as Congress gets in session. At least lay the groundwork. Then when the new Congress and the new President take office, run this bill through and cut off funding to the UN by the US. It will send a message. Then tell the UN to move and get the hell out of the US. They can take their dictator members, corruption, and unpaid parking tickets elsewhere.

#10  The Orthodox Jews in New York City vote Republican. It's the Reform and cultural Jews who vote Democrat.

#9  Personally I think a three state solution is the only workable one. Egypt, Israel, and Jordan.

#8  Two State Solution is the only way to insure peace".

#7  A full court press on damaging any hope of the new administration having any success in the ME

This complete and utter BULL SHIT about abstaining instead of vetoing is just a complete crock. I hope all of those Orthodox Jews in New York that voted for this crap ass POTUS and for the Hildabeast are happy. Boy talk about self loathing.

#6  Even the demoncrat leaders are saying "Enough. Shut up."

#5  Of this you may be certain - our "leaders" are, as planned, throwing gasoline on fires they have already started. Acting provocatively as they depart the stage, giving DJT, "bonus" alligators - with lasers on their heads.

It would be reassuring to know that DJT and company have a political version of the neutron bomb to set off above DC.

I hope the world recognizes the difference between patriotic USA citizens and their mutually exclusive short-timer USA politicians.
