John Bolton: ‘The Two-State Solution Is Dead'
2016-12-30
[Breitbart] Former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton told Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Raheem Kassam on Thursday, "Just as a matter of empirical reality, the two-state solution is dead. That’s about the only thing John Kerry came close to getting right yesterday."

Bolton was discussing out-going Secretary of State John Kerry’s anti-Israel speech delivered Wednesday, as reported by Breitbart News:

Lame-duck Secretary of State John Kerry blasted the Israeli government at the State Department on Wednesday, and attempted to defend the Obama administration’s decision to let an anti-Israel resolution pass at the UN Security Council last week.

Kerry delivered his remarks in the midst of a diplomatic fight with Israel, in which President Barack Obama stands accused of working with Palestinians secretly to undermine Israeli security, overturning decades of American foreign policy precedent in the process.

As for the now-infamous failure of the United States to veto the recent anti-Israel UN resolution, Bolton said, "The notion that this is simply consistent with prior U.S. policy, which is the Obama administration line, is flatly incorrect."

Bolton continued, "The failure to veto this Resolution 2334 reverses fifty years of American policy, ever since the 1967 war between Israel and the surrounding Arab states, which ended in the iconic Resolution 242, the so-called Land for Peace Resolution."

#3  Never a peep about Mexican settlements in the southwestern United States. It's the same thing, you know. It's the same with Arab settlements in Europe for that matter. You get your people out there in sufficient numbers to push the native population aside and dictate the agenda. I'll give the Palestinians credit for recognizing what's happening which is more than I can say for Americans and Europeans.

#2  Its been dead since '48 when the Arabs et al failed to destroy Israel. The neighbors didn't give a flip for the Paleos till they realized they were never going to get the land back they lost in '67, even then, they treated them as the threat they were. See - Black September.

#1  In a War somebody Wins and somebody Loses. that is why they call the things War.

You win by breaking your adversary and taking away his capability and his will. You break him..permanently. You crush him and his will. OR you kill him and keep killing him until you take everything he has. You castrate him and take his wife and family and don't give anything back.

You don't negotiate with him. If he wants it, you piss on it and even if you yourself don't need it, you dump on it just because he wants it.

I want Israel to WIN. Keep up on the Settlements.They WORK, Do it again and keep doing it until you own it ALL.
