State Dept: US wants all Jews out of 'West Bank'

Headline News

Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Israel Today Staff

One of the top US State Department officials on Tuesday acknowledged that the ultimate goal of US Middle East policy is to cleanse all of Judea and Samaria of Jews and hand that territory in its entirety over to the Palestinian Arabs.

Speaking at the Middle East Institute, Under Secretary for Political Affairs William J. Burns stated:

"Our goal in the region is clear: two states living side by side in peace and security; a Jewish state of Israel, with which America retains unbreakable bonds, and with true security for all Israelis; and a viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that ends the occupation that began in 1967, that ends the daily humiliations of Palestinians under occupation, and that realizes the full and remarkable potential of the Palestinian people."

Burns added that while the Obama Administration appreciates Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's partial settlement freeze, it does not go nearly far enough. Burns was certainly aware that to the Palestinians, his words would be interpreted to mean that Israel must expel all 250,000 Jews living in Judea and Samaria, as well as the tens of thousands of Jews who live on the eastern side of Jerusalem.

Burns' remarks came just a day after Obama and Netanyahu met at the White House in what has now been revealed to be a less than friendly encounter.

Israel was fully expecting a fresh wave of American pressure following Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' threat to quit if he doesn't get what he wants.

It''s What God Wants That Counts!

Who cares what the US State Department wants, it''s what God wants that counts! The US just needs to back off of telling Israel what to do, and trying to run their country. God will take care of Israel, and He doesn''t need the US butting in, and trying to give away their land. And if, we don''t stop trying to give away Israel''s land, God is going to take care of us, but unfortunately, it won''t be in a very nice way!

Even Jews what?

Can Jews do wrong? Certainly.

They''re humans before they''re Jews. Got all the same emotions and feelings as anybody else.

And the same problem handling power.

Power is an equal opportunity corruptor.

Israel is a sovereign nation

I implore Prime Minister Netanyahu to ignore the Obama administration and its refusal to recognize that the land belongs to the Israelis and do NOT give in to their "demands." The US has no right to make demands on a sovereign nation. We, the REAL christians in America, support Israel and not the so-called palestinians.

2 Thus saith the Lord GOD Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession:
3 Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD Because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that ye might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken up in the lips of talkers, and are an infamy of the people:
4 Therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes, and to the cities that are forsaken, which became a prey and derision to the residue of the heathen that are round about

I also maintain the need of exercising discernment of spirits and adherence to the Word of God
that we Overcome Satan...

The WORD of OUR TESTIMONY !
It is ,of course, wise to ignore much of the foolish diatribe here. However, we must not forget that the Word of Our Testimony and The Sword of the Spirit are our most effective weapons to be deployed against the offensive utterances of devils in the camp seeking to undermine the Kingdom of God.

When your enemy tells you what you should do,

do the opposite. Build, build, build. Import another half million Jews and build, build, build. Maybe Israel should sell Saudi Arabia a nuke just to keep the Iranians in place. It is a chess game right. They could make a fortune selling nuclear bombs to, ????, say, S. America or say Iraq. Iran would love that.

Amos 9: 13-15.

The days are coming, declares the LORD,
When the reaper will be overtaken by the ploughs and the planter by the grapes.
New wine will drip from the mountains and flow from all the hills, and I will bring my people Israel back from exile.
They will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them.
They will plant vineyards and drink their wine they will make gardens and eat their fruit.
I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them, says the LORD your God.

Praise the LORD for His blessing''s on Israel''
Praise the LORD!!!.

U.S. needs to remember war Israel fought to get the West Ban

The U.S. public needs to be told how Egypt & other Arab states "tried to drive Israel in the sea," to destroy the Jews. Most people in the U.S. have no memory or understanding of the Six Day War, therefore they do not understand why Israel should not just give up the land for peace. I know and I have taught my 2 daughters who are now in their early 20"s. One is a graduate in political science who wants to teach college. Our people must be educated or they will follow along with Obama. The American people are much more educated about the Holocost. This largely due to the media, movies & films about it. American tend to believe what they see at the movies. Steven Spielberg should make a movie about the Six Day War!!! Then maybe people would understand and support Israel. It''s impossible to understand the problems today in the MiddleEast if you do not know the history. Anybody who knows anyone in the media should talk to them about this. Stir up some interest. It is a truely remarkable story in the history of

On the contrary , Eretz Israel is the ancient Home Land of the Jewish People, divinely covenanted to them as an everlasting possession!
The Land was illegally occupied by opportunist Palestoid squatters during the Diaspora!

"US wants all Jews out of ''West Bank''"

What they say... is the land does not belong to Israel and they occupy it in breech of international law.

Jew or Muslim isn''t the topic. It''s Israeli citizens occupying land that doesn''t belong to Israel.

But as usual, "Israel Today" is leaving the middle of the road. Your claims of having a balanced perspective is so much hogwash.

Ezekiel cont''d

Mike Ayala was cut off, but I will continue in a summary of Eze 36-38, but it''s ivitally mportant to read it in toto! The Lord brought the Jews back to HIS land and theirs (HE gave it to the forebears of the Jews FOREVER), not for their sake but for HIS as a testimony of HIS greatness. The once laid-waste land has bloomed from the work of their hands and YHVH (HIS). The cities are now armed and inhabited. YHVH will place HIS sanctuary there so the world will know HE is with them forever. When Israel is attacked, YHVH will defend them with hail, fire and a great earthquake the enemy will be destroyed. Thus, YHVH will show HIS greatness and holiness. HE states HE will make HIMSELF known to the nations. Then, they will know that HE IS LORD.

The US state department should worry about

the state of the US, or rather all 50 states. A state of emergency will be coming to a city near you, very soon as this country finds itself at war inside its own boarders. States are not going to allow the Obama mandates, especially when the insidious Trap a Take (I mean Cap and Trade) policies hit. America has five years before she ceases to be America.

There is no way Israel will leave the West Bank. And there is no way terrorist Palestinians can run a country. They like Palestine the way it is, a terrorist camp for women and children. God wants Jews to settle the land. He will decide who gets the land, not Obama or France or Iran or the UN. He will have them all in derision.
