Last minute cheap shot going out the door by the spineless administration:rolleyes:
In a reversal of United States policy on Israeli building in Judea and Samaria (The West Bank), outgoing American Secretary of State Antony Blinken (https://www.jpost.com/tags/antony-blinken) announced that Israeli settlements “Are… inconsistent with international law.”
He continued, “Our administration maintains a firm opposition to settlement expansion, and in our judgment, this only weakens, doesn’t strengthen Israel’s security. It’s been longstanding US policy, under Republican and Democratic administrations alike, that new settlements are counterproductive to reaching an enduring peace.”
It has always baffled Israelis why Americans consider Israeli building an impediment to peace when Palestinian terrorism is an obviously larger obstacle to peace.
