How's that for a small but large change in the name of one of my favorite on-going threads?
Any word on how Javanka are doing with solving that ancient mess?
There have been rumors of a "new" policy coming out of Trumpty's office sometime soon...oh boy, i can hardly wait.

Trump’s New Attempt to Push Palestinians to Negotiate With Israel
"The Trump administration announced Monday the closure of the Palestine Liberation Organization office, which serves as the de facto Palestinian Embassy, in Washington. It was the latest in a series of punitive measures the administration says is designed to force the Palestinians to return to negotiations with Israel. And the announcement from the U.S. State Department came the same day that John Bolton, the national-security adviser, railed against the International Criminal Court for going after Israel and the United States, declaring the international judicial body “dead to us.”
What it added up to was another effort to turn up the pressure on Palestinians, who a Palestinian diplomat said are “immune” to it, in the context of the administration’s broader skepticism of international institutions and their role in the world."

Re: Israel and Zionism

here it is:
U.S. Will No Longer Fund Peace-Building Programs For Palestinians
https://www.npr.org/2018/09/15/64822213 ... lestinians
The Trump administration has confirmed it will no longer fund peace-building programs for Palestinians and Israelis — including an interfaith youth program and a project for children with disabilities.
It's the latest in a series of announcements of the U.S. cutting hundreds of millions of dollars for Palestinians, with the aim of pressuring Palestinian leaders to cooperate with U.S. efforts to broker a peace deal with Israel.
No doubt that Jared Kushner had a hand in all this political terrorism.
Meanwhile, $38 billion in tax dollars are still given every year to Israel's imperialistic military machine.

Re: Israel and Zionism
Trump Is Reinventing the U.S. Approach to the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict
...and NOT in a good way, IMHO...
"Recent months have seen a series of dramatic steps by the Trump administration with respect to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, defunding the agency responsible for Palestinian refugees, cutting West Bank aid, shutting down the PLO mission in Washington, and persistently promising to present its own peace plan. The flurry of activity comes even as the prospects of an actual deal seem increasingly remote. The Palestinian leadership has made clear it won’t so much as glance at any U.S. proposal, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has suggested there would be no harm in taking more time before unveiling it, and Arab leaders whose support, or at least acquiescence, the administration deems crucial to the enterprise have voiced their own qualms and politely distanced themselves from the initiative. By now, it would be hard to find anyone serious who takes seriously the notion that the Trump administration will achieve the “ultimate deal.” Which raises the more interesting question: What, exactly, is the Trump team up to?
It being the Trump administration, the answer is not entirely straightforward. But this much is clear: Notwithstanding its repeated vows to the contrary, the primary goal of an administration that has given up on the current Palestinian leadership isn’t to encourage or pressure President Abbas to come to the table. By now, even the Trump team must know that won’t happen. Rather, the objective is to fundamentally reframe the U.S.’s understanding of, and policy toward, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, shifting the focus toward Palestinians’ material, economic concerns while downplaying their political and national ones."

Re: Israel and Zionism
The left sides with Islamic leaders and hates Jews. Democrats are extremely anti-Semetic. Very sad and terrible scene this past weekend. No surprise the shooter was a Democrat Jew and Trump hater (Trump's daughter and son in law and some of his grandchildren are Jews yet the media keeps painting him wrongly and predictably as anti Jewish- FAKE NEWS). No surprise with Democrats supporting those who want Sharia Law to take over in the US. Democrats support Keith Ellison, Louis Farrakhan who likened Jews to "Termites". They support Linda Sarsour who has led the #MeToo movement. She has openly called for the destruction of the Jewish State of Israel and is open about her fondness for Sharia Law.

Re: Israel and Zionism
Yes Democrats are Anti-Semetic. If they weren't, they'd support Israel. They wouldn't support political candidates who want to enact Sharia Law in the US. Democrats sympathize with Islamic Terror that seeks to destroy ours and Israel's very existence. This isn't hard to understand Mr. AA. See the thread about the now, well over 600 incidents of violence brought forth by Democrats towards Republicans in the last two years.DMac wrote:Another daily dose of doltisms from the wretched pile of stench.You do realize that when you say Democrats that means every one in the country, right?Democrats are extremely anti-Semetic.

There isn't.
Re: Israel and Zionism
I answered. Jews that vote Democrat have more loyalty to the Democrat Party than their religion. Same can be said about Catholics. The Church is anti abortion yet many Catholics are Democrats, again proving they are more loyal to the Democrat Party than their religion.foreverlax wrote:When you answer my questions, I'll return the courtesy.Bandito wrote:Jews have been duped by the Democrats for years.

Why don't Democrats support Israel? Why do they support candidates that sympathize with Islamic terror?
