John Kerry Didnt Say Anything Wrong

Read what he said. Tell me he is wrong. Look up the word apartheid. Tell me he is wrong.

"If there’s no two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict soon, Israel risks becoming “an apartheid state,”"

Kerry essentially has taken the same view as Carter, i.e., that the Arab birthrate will exceed Israel's birthrate leaving the Arabs as the majority.

The problem is that even if that analysis were true, which it doesn't appear to be, it doesn't have anything to do with the peace negotiations or the status of territories that are being administered by Israel.

Uri Sadot debunks the "demographic" idea:

Israel's Demographic Time Bomb is a Dud
Sorry, but the real number of Arab Israelis isn't an existential threat to the Jewish state.

The numbers just don’t add up. Demography relies on more than just birth rates, and similar predictions have a long history of falling flat. Israeli Jews have a healthy and largely stable demographic majority in Israel and the West Bank, and developments in the coming years may even enhance this trend. The demographic time bomb, in other words, is a dud.

It is to the point that if anything that is said can be construed as anti-semitic that they go ape-crazy!

Furthermore the political right goes crazy because they view anything against Israel as anti-american.

I don't think he said anything wrong myself, but then again, I view the Church as the Israel of God.

Preach brother preach. Along those lines, do you have to support Israel no matter what? I see no difference in what Israel does and the actions of Hamas and Al Queda. Its very hard for me to believe GOD is for that.

Okay, let's see. We have Israel who is our largest democratic ally in the Middle East and you guys are okay that the PLO and Hamas will temporary set aside their long standing differences in order to broker a deal against Israel so that later they can blame their society ridden with poverty on Israel?

Did I get that right? I think I did.

Im sure none of their poverty has anything to do with the massive land grab that Israel has been a part of since their inception.

Israel should have no dialogue with the Palestinians until weapons stop getting smuggled through Gaza. Iran who wants to annilhilate Israel is one of the weapons providers to Hamas. Israel has done a great job of continuing to destroy the tunnels, and Netanyahu is right - “Either Hamas disavows the destruction of Israel and embraces peace and denounces terror or President Abbas renounces Hamas. If one of those things happened, we could get back to the peace negotiations. I hope that he renounces Hamas and I that hope he gets back to the peace table, as I’ve just said. The ball is in his court. It’s his decision.”

The Palestinian people will NEVER be a democratic ally to America - the point.

The "Iran wants to annihilate Israel" line is false. They have the largest Jewish population outside of Israel. Why arent they getting annihilated? Did you know Ahmadinejad was awarded for helping Jews around the world? Did you know the current president of Iran Rouhani donated 400k To Jewish hospital?

The Iran threat to Israel is nothing but warmonger propaganda. People remember all of the Iraq propaganda? They have WMDS! They are supporting Al Queda! They want to destroy Israel! They are a threat to the world ect... None of it turned out to be true! Guess what? We are using the same garbage to justify going to war with Iran.

Of course they wont. Why does the whole muslim world hate us? It has nothing to do with our freedoms! Its because we support Israel no matter what! Why do we do that?
