It seems that every American President cannot resist sending a "peacemaker" to Israel to broker a peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians. John Kerry is the envoy, this time, whom President Obama instructed to broker a deal, or else. Not going so well...
This is from Mat Staver, Founder and Chief Counsel at Liberty Counsel:
Quote:
Israel’s leadership is declaring that John Kerry has “thrown us under the bus.”
In reporting the apparent death of Middle East peace talks, Secretary of State John Kerry told members of a Senate committee that, “700 settlement units were announced in Jerusalem, and ‘poof,’ that was sort of the moment.”
...
Secretary of State John Kerry has once again put his foot in his mouth in blaming actions by the Israeli leadership for the breakdown of the Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations.
As everyone on the planet knows, there is a tremendous amount of distrust between the Israelis and the Palestinians. There appears to be an equal amount of doubt that the Obama administration has the capability to broker a deal when both principle parties disagree on the starting point of negotiations.

Liberty Counsel supports Israel for biblical and national security reasons. Israel is a Middle East bastion of democracy and individual freedom and is the birthplace of the Judeo-Christian concept of the rule of law – which, in turn, became the foundation of America and Western Civilization.
As I [Mat Staver] was privileged to discuss with Prime Minister Netanyahu several months ago, the United States and Israel are the modern day pillars of Western Civilization and our nations’ fates are inextricably linked. We MUST stand with Israel!
