Kerry Says Israeli Settlements Should Not Disrupt Mideast Talks
2013-08-13
In a few days he'll say something else. Whatevs, dood.
[Ynet] US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry
Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State...
said on Monday that Israel's announcement of new settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem "were to some degree expected," and urged Israelis and Paleostinians to move head with peace talks due to resume this week.

"What this underscores is the importance of getting to the table, getting to the table quickly" and resolving disputes over settlements and other issues, said Kerry. He added that he had spoken on Monday with Israeli negotiator Tzipi Livni and had called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is recovering from surgery.
And in the meantime, the State Department has already expressed serious concerns.

#3  Settlements WORK. That is WHY they are DOing settlements. Keep it up and there won't BE anyplace for the Palestinians to go or to live. THAT is why they are afraid of the settlements.

Winning = Settlements. Keep it up and the war is over. You do want Peace don't you?
Peace= somebody WINS and somebody loses.

Settlements = winning.
