I never thought I'd live to see the day that an American administration would denounce the state of Israel for rebuilding Jerusalem.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There's no doubt we'd be very angry if the American president had come to the Knesset and argued against the government of Israel.
I ask the American administration not to participate in any resolution that will double the suffering of the Palestinian people. I am convinced that the American people would not want to see the Palestinians suffer the way they do.
We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem.
We do not build new Jewish communities in Samaria, Judea and Gaza. The United States has never accepted our building of communities or of the fence. Yet, I've managed to develop relations between Israel and the United States even though President Bush never supported settlements.
As long as they keep building settlements, the world will be anti-Israeli.
The State of Israel was not established so that the anti-Semites will disappear but, rather, so we can tell them to get lost.
If America is truly Israel's greatest ally, we should not be asking it to put its citizens and future at risk by forcing the establishment of a hostile Palestinian state as the only option.
When are American Jews going to realize that the Republican Party is far better for Israel than the Democrats?
Israel is grateful that America believes in us.
The question is no longer whether the United States should contribute to assuring Israel's survival and prosperity; that goes without saying.
