Israel-Palestine-Jordan
No breakthrough at Kerry's meeting with Netanyahu
2013-12-14
US Secretary of State John Kerry failed to achieve a breakthrough on Friday at a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intended to advance Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, dpa reported.

Kerry was seeking to push Israeli and Palestinian leaders to reach a "framework agreement" by the end of January, aimed at breaking the deadlock in the talks that began in July, after an absence of any direct negotiations for almost three years.

Shortly before his departure from Ben Gurion airport near Tel Aviv, Kerry reaffirmed the United States' commitment to a two-state solution. "We are working on an approach that both guarantees Israel's security and fully respects Palestinian sovereignty," he said.

Israel Radio quoted Israeli officials as saying that the nine-month deadline originally set to meet a peace accord would have to be extended.

#5  Kerry doesn't want to listen because he, like his boss, wants the Jews to dry up and blow away.

His only preference is that his fingerprints not be on the crime.

#4  I am sure Bibi was being diplomatic with this clown. Kerry has nothing to offer Israel but trouble, frustration, and mortal danger.

#3  Netanyahu knows this neighborhood far better than Kerry. Maybe Kerry should talk less and listen more.

#2  Can't talk for all Israelis, but I---personally, hoping for the second American Revolution.

#1  Forget about this bugger. Don't give in Israel.

It's an exile returned
O'er the ocean drear,
It's a grave in the grass,
It's a falling tear -
That's all.
