Jason Greenblatt makes the right case
Blaming the settlements for the lack of an Israeli-Palestinian agreement is a “farce,” US Mideast negotiator Jason Greenblatt said.I wonder how Stephens reacted, recalling he's long proven one of the phoniest "conservatives" around? Stephens is not worth listening to, IMHO.
Greenblatt’s comments came two weeks after US Ambassador David Friedman said in a New York Times interview that Israel had the “right to retain” some of the West Bank. On Sunday, at the Jerusalem Post Conference, Greenblatt said he supported Friedman’s remarks.
“The lack of peace has nothing to do with the existence of settlements, no matter what people say day in and day out,” Greenblatt said on Monday at a discussion in Manhattan with New York Times columnists Bret Stephens and Shmuley Boteach, at Boteach’s World Values Network.
But the point must always be made that Islam has what to do with a lack of agreements involving a terrorist organization called the PLO, and a non-existent country called "palestine". Was that brought up at the conference? If not, that's where there's a flaw, though apart from that, Greenblatt did well defending Israel's right to its own land.

The Koran teaches that Jews are
the biggest enemies of Muslims.
The Koran’s 5th chapter, verse 82 says:
“You will find that the people most
hostile towards the believers [Muslims]
are the Jews and the polytheists...”
This accurate and relevant quote from
The Koran is NEVER MENTIONED in
the Israel-bashing mainstream-news-media
and it never will be,
because it sends the wrong message:
It tells THE TRUTH about Islam!

“In other cases the more or less universally
used description of eligibility [for refugee
status] included people who were forced
to leave permanent or habitual homes.
In the case of the Arab refugees, however,
the definition had been broadened to include
as refugees any persons who had been in Palestine
for only two years before Israel’s statehood in 1948.”

===================================
UNRWA [United Nations Relief and Works Agency]
altered its definition of refugees to include
those people who had lived in Palestine a minimum
of only two years preceding the 1948
conflict [in which Israel became an independent state].

EXPLANATION:
This means that a 1946 to 1948 [2 years]
Arab immigrant from Iraq or Egypt is counted
as an indigenous person whose rights in
places such as Hebron and Jerusalem override
those of a Jewish person whose family
had lived there from the year 1492 expulsion
of Jews from Spain until 1948 [456 years].

Remember this when you hear about the “Two-State Solution”.
“Two-State Solution” = “Final Solution”
===================================
[Mohamed] Heikal [editor of the influential
Al Ahram Egyptian newspaper, in year 1971]
called for a change of Arab rhetoric:
No more threats of throwing Israel into the sea;
and a new political strategy aimed at reducing
Israel to indefensible borders and pushing her
into diplomatic and economic isolation.
He predicted that “total withdrawal” would
“pass sentence on the entire state of Israel.”

Khaled Al Azm, who was the Prime Minister of Syria
after the [year] 1948 war, deplored the Arab tactics
and subsequent exploitation of the [Palestinian]
refugees, in his [year] 1972 memoirs:
“Since 1948 it was we who demanded the return of the refugees...
while it was we [Arabs] who made them [Palestinians] leave [Israel]...
We brought disaster upon...
Arab refugees, by inviting them and bringing
pressure to bear upon them to leave...
Then we exploited them in executing crimes
of murder, arson, and throwing bombs upon...
men, women and children,
all this in the service of political purposes...”

In 1958, former director of UNRWA Ralph Galloway
declared angrily while in Jordan:
“The Arab states do NOT want to solve
the [Palestinian] refugee problem.
They want to keep it as an open sore, as an affront
to the United Nations, and as a weapon against Israel.
Arab leaders do not give a damn whether Arab refugees live or die.”

“One crucial truth, among the many
which have been obscured or deprecated,
is that there have been as many Jewish refugees
who fled or were expelled from the Arab countries
[in year 1948] as there were Arab refugees
from Israel, and that the Jews left
of necessity and in flight from danger.”

Hitler’s crimes against the Jews
have been frequently justified
in Arab writings and pronouncements.
In the 1950s, Minister Anwar Sadat
published an open letter to Hitler,
hoping he was still alive
and sympathizing with his cause.
Important Arab writers and political
figures have said Hitler was
“wronged and slandered…”
Or that Hitler wanted to “save …
the world from this malignant evil…”
