Of state john kerrys critical speech on israel as a two-state solution. netanyahu said kerry paid lip service to terrorism as a factor and said israel cant make peace to people who reject their existence. in his speech secretary kerry condemned israeli settlement construction. he said the u.s. decision on that u.n. vote is aligned with american values and that a two-state solution is the only way to achieve peace in the middle east. he says if israel rejects two-state solution for peace with pal...

Right of return which means, there are no records. that any of those ancestors ever lived in israel has the try it move there and vote and vote for the expulsion of all the residents of israel. so the p.a. position is well disguised. they may even fool a lot of americans. but the p.a. position is two states as long as theyre both arab states. when the p.a. comes forward and says there will be two states, and the right of return means palestinians can move to the palestinian state, then well see ...

Theyre talking about these. this is the checkpoint outside bethlehem. it can take you hours if youre palestinian to get through these. >> when we talk about a two-state solution, again, for people who are not as familiar with the intimate details like yourself, what exactly is that? what is this two-state solution? >> were basing all of this on what the u.s., specifically the barack obama administration would like, two-state solution would be the west bank here. and the gaza strip here. that wou...

Theyre barrier to peace. there was a ten-month moratorium on settlements on which peace was not reached. the real barrier is that the palestinian side does not accept the idea of a two-state solution in which israel will be a jewish state. you have hamas that very loudly says it wants the ethnic cleansing from the middle east, or genocide. then you have the palestinian authority using this phrase, right of return, to cover up the fact that they have a very similar position to hamas. so you can s...

This has been the fundamental, foundational principle of the two-state solution from the beginning. creating a state for the jewish people and a state for the palestinian people where each can achieve their national aspirations. and resolution 181 is incorporated into the foundational documents of both the israelis and palestinians. recognition of israel as a jewish state has been the u.s. position for years and based on my conversations in these last months, i am absolutely convinced that many ...

Our values, just as previous u.s. administrations have done at the security council before us. they failed to recognize that this friend, the united states of america, that has done more to support israel than any other country, this friend that has blocked countless efforts to delegitimize israel cannot be true to our own values or even the stated democratic values of israel. and we cannot properly defend and protect israel if we allow a viable two-state solution to be destroyed by our own eyes...

Peace is made. this is the area where israel and the arab world are looking at perhaps the greatest moment of potential transformation in the middle east since israels creation in 1948. the arab world faces its own set of security challenges. with israeli-palestinian peace, israel, the united states, jordan, together with the gcc countries would be ready and willing to define a new security partnership for the region that would be absolutely groundbreaking. so, ladies and gentlemen, thats why it...

Governing israel. they have a significant voice within the likud party. they basically control the ideology of the jewish national home party and the government is now running on the fumes of this fuel provided by by ideological settlers. most israelis believe that there is a justification for what would be called the settlement blocks that are close to the 1967 line. they support the idea of retaining the neighborhoods in jerusalem but most israelis would say they dont understand why theres suc...

As the administration is weeks from being out the door. >> although i deeply respect secretary kerrys very hard work in pursuit of peace, i question the timing and the purpose of todays speech. he spent and criticized the policy of israel and very little time talking about how that was. there have been real difficulties. and some of the recent decisions by the netanyahu government and in terms of increasing the pace of settlement activity. they can be seen as moving away from a two-state solutio...

Israel in a two-state solution. also, israel has demonstrated both in the settlement and of a capacity to remove those settlements that are harmful to a peace process and benjamin netanya netanyahus party has been at the forefront of removing any settlements thats called for removal for the peace process. there was a ten-month settlement freeze that was not used for the palestinia palestinians. whats most missing is how whats most missing is how outrageous the palestinian
