Rockets Rain Into Israel AS Obama Meets With His Palestinian Buddies



From Associated Press:
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) - U.S. President Barack Obama is meeting Palestinian officials on the second day of his Mideast tour to emphasize the importance of reaching an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal, a message underscored Thursday when Palestinian militants in Gaza launched rockets into southern Israel.
He is not bringing a new plan to relaunch peace talks, but in meetings with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and a speech to Israeli students later in the day, he will appeal to both sides to halt unilateral actions that make negotiations more difficult.Those troublesome actions include continued construction of Jewish housing settlements on land claimed by the Palestinians and repeated Palestinian efforts to achieve recognition at the United Nations in the absence of a peace agreement. 
Yasser Abed-Rabbo, an aide Abbas, said before the meeting that the Palestinians will tell Obama they won't return to negotiations with Israel without a settlement freeze. 
"There can be no real (peace) process with the continuation of settlement activities on our lands," he said, adding that the issue of settlements is central to the Obama-Abbas meeting.Palestinians argue that they cannot negotiate a border between Israel and a future Palestine while Israel unilaterally shapes that line through accelerated settlement building. 
The Palestinians want a state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem - territories Israel captured in the 1967 war - but are ready for minor adjustments to accommodate some settlements closest to Israel. 
That's what the AP says, anyway. It's not true.

The truth is, the Palestinians elected Hamas and the Palestinian Liberation Organization to lead them. Both organizations have Charters calling for the complete destruction of Israel. Hamas' Charters goes so far as to openly call for death to "the Jews".

Hamas and the PLO both distribute maps of "Palestine" which include no Israel at all.

In recent days, we have seen that our President displays a map of Israel with no Jerusalem.

Obama is on the side of the Palestinian terrorists, not the side of Israel. He has made that clear.

No one ought to be expected to negotiate peace with a people who are openly calling for their obliteration.

This is a charade.
