President Barack Obama welcomed Israeli-Palestinian talks starting in Washington later on Monday but cautioned that a tough path lies ahead.
“This is a promising step forward, though hard work and hard choices remain ahead,” Obama said in a statement.
“I am hopeful that both the Israelis and Palestinians will approach these talks in good faith and with sustained focus and determination,” he said.
“The United States stands ready to support them throughout these negotiations, with the goal of achieving two states, living side by side in peace and security.”

The hatred runs deep between the Israelis and the Palestinians. Too much blood has already been spilled.
The only way to solve the issue, is for the Israelis to leave the Middle East. Perhaps Arizona would be suitable? Not going to happen though, as long as the Dome On The Rock continues to sit on the top of Soloman’s temple.

Anyone who actually believes ‘Package O’ needs to be examined for mental problems…

Jews lived for centuries under islamic rule in Al-Andalus (Spain) and fared rather well, until the Reconquista and the Inquisition made them pack their bags and move to friendlier pastures in the newly emerged Protestant world, first to Amsterdam and next piggy-backed on Dutch ships to London and Manhattan under king William III and Peter Stuyvesant resp. Over the cause of three centuries they gradually got Anglosphere under control and started to use the formation as a tool to attempt to realize their messianic belief in their future role as the Chosen who would inherit the earth and the infamous NWO is a direct embodiment of that belief, including all the desasters of the past century: the US war entry in WW1, the capture of the FED and media, Wallstreet/Schiff and bolshevism, the Armenian genocide undert the ‘Young Turks’, WW2 and the destruction of Germany, the only people strong enough initially to oppose them until the combined zionist tools USSR and USA destroyed them (but not terminally). And now all of a sudden the zionist project faces collapse: the rise of China, the escape of Russia under the Hitler du jour Putin, the rise in slow motion of the Caliphate, the rise of Iran, as well as the rise of Germany within a new European state system. That’s too many dragons to beat and then there is the rise of the worst Hitler of them all: the rise of the internet, circumventing the media grand strategy. And now they are toast. Let Turkey have Palestine. It belonged to them when Britain decided to give it to the jews in exchange for the jews organising US WW1 entry.
