Clinton silent on honouring Bush's congress commitments to Israel : Comments

By David Singer, published 22/3/2016

Israel's insistence on these conditions had been major stumbling blocks in the PLO rejecting Israel's offer to withdraw from more than 90% of the West Bank.

Well David as usual you seem to think only other folk need to be bound by past agreements.

And so nice of Israel to offer to hand back 90% of what has been patently purloined? [Offers like the two state roadmap can always be withdrawn.] And Israel should be rewarded for that generosity?

I don't think Clinton can be bound by any words or promises, save those coming from her own mouth and as her own utterances.

Even so committments are always conditional, and for both sides.

And with some sort of peace settlement with Iran, one less bargaining chip to blackmail congress with?

Let Israel first put a signed and ratified agreement, also palatable for the Palestinians, on the table, and then ask for Clinton's support?

We've already had enough hot air(on again, off again, hot air obfuscation) to launch several hot air balloons, and indeed fly them across the Pacific!

Putting all your eggs in one basket eh David?

Who says Hillary Clinton (a warmonger and clear sociopath) is going to be President, because this is what you infer.

I think Sanders may just 'Trump' (no pun intended) her in the coming months and the Donald may just make the White House in the current race to the bottom of US joke politics.

But then again neocon and Jewish interference and shenanigans in the political process may just see Killary Clinton steal the top job.

In the big scheme of things Zionist aspirations will continue to subvert justice in relation to the two state solution so why bother blathering about a two bit shill and the unknown political outcome of the worlds most corrupt and immoral nation on earth.

Interesting to see you find it acceptable for America to break commitments to Israel made by President Bush as overwhelmingly endorsed by the Congress.

Strange sense of morality indeed.

As to your claim that the West Bank was "patently purloined" you are obviously unaware that:

1. It was the Jews who were driven out of Judea and Samaria (as the West Bank was then called) and Gaza in 1948 where they had settled pursuant to the legal rights vested in them under article 6 of the Mandate of Palestine and article 80 of the UN charter.

2. The PLO in its founding 1964 Charter rejected any claims by Palestinian Arabs to territorial sovereignty of the West Bank or Gaza:

"Article 24. This Organization does not exercise any regional sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, on the Gaza Strip or the Himmah Area. Its activities will be on the national popular level in the liberational, organizational, political and financial fields."

When Jordan lost the West Bank and Egypt lost Gaza to Israel in 1968 - the PLO changed its tune .

Apparently the thought of Jews owning any territory in the West Bank or Gaza had become anathema to the PLO and so it has continued for the last 47 years.

You no doubt would readily agree with the PLO changing its mind in 1968 - just as Clinton might be prepared to jettison the commitments made to Israel by Bush in 2004.

Had the Palestinian Arabs had any common sense they would have grabbed the opportunities given them in 1922, 1937, 1947, between 1948-1967, 2000/1 and 2008 to end up with a lot more than they will ever now achieve by continually wanting to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.

Whilst people like you write the rubbish you do - you encourage such rejectionism and confrontation to deny the Jews what was unanimously conferred on them by the League of Nations and the United Nations.

That is too a strange sense of morality and demonstrable Jew-hatred on your part.

Shooting off your mouth again - attempting to denigrate Israel with the claim that it is the world's most immoral and corrupt nation on earth.

Sorry to disappoint you but Somalia is - followed by North Korea then Afghanistan, Sudan and South Sudan. Israel is ranked at 135 out of 167 nations surveyed.

Substantiate the basis your claim or shut up.

The sooner you crawl back under your rock of anonymity the better.

Spewing out the hatred you do simply exposes you as an out and out Jew-hater.
