Kerry links wave of terrorism in Israel to settlement activity
2015-10-14
[Jpost] A "massive increase in settlements" built by Israel in recent years has led to the "frustration" and "violence" now stoking its decades-old conflict with the Palestinians, US Secretary of State John Kerry said at Harvard University on Tuesday night.
You Americans have no intention of cleaning house, are you?
His brilliant and subtle Harvard audience no doubt preened themselves on agreeing with a man who hadn't been accepted to their law school, back in the day.

#6  Kerry is referring to settlements in Israel proper. Not in any occupied areas. He is being intentionally misleading.

#4  The president, for the most part, gets the team he wants. so clean up will be the job of whoever wins in 2017.

As for poor Secretary of State Kerry, like his predecessor he merely speaks as ordered by the White House, his own opinions, such as they are, completely ignored if he dares say them aloud to that august company. The man is dumb squared.

No, you nailed it! The liberal Jewish lobby is far too strong at the present.
