Since Donald Trump is leading in the Republican race, my question has been, how does he feel about Israel and would he be a different president regarding this tiny state from Obama or Hillary?
The fact of the matter is this, which my Israeli cousin Andi put very directly.
1. Who will run this Palestinian state?
A. Hamas terrorists? Their ideology is to destroy Israel and they have been trying to do just that since they took over Gaza in a rigged voting exercise.
B. Hamas and ISIS? Yes, ISIS is now in Gaza, and sometimes the 2 terrorists work together and sometimes they don't, pretty much like Hamas and Fatah had been when groping for leadership. ISIS has its own ideology of destroying Israel.
C. Fatah? They are not in the driver's seat. Hamas is. Fatah joined up with Hamas and accepted their creed of destroying Israel.
"The bottom line is that there is NO WAY at the present that Israel can exist next to an independent Palestine."
"In the near future, there will be no Palestinian state." So harping on it will not change things. "Since the 2003 Road map for peace, the current outline for a Palestinian–Israeli peace agreement has been a two-state solution. Getting the Palestinians to a peace table has been hard enough. 12 years of being held back from having a stable peace is what Israel has been forced to endure. During this time, there has been a lot of action and attacks on Israel from rockets, mortars and missiles to tunneling activity in sneaking terrorists into Israel for attacks as well as gathering up arms to use against them, and even to kidnap Israelis. Israel and the world has been given a preview of what life would be like with a neighbor like Palestine.
Donald Trump has never visited Israel, but plans to do so he said before the year's end. He said he has always wanted to visit there. He's 71 years old so I'm glad he finally will do it. As a Presbyterian, he should find a lot of interesting sites to visit besides speaking with Netanyahu. I hope he leaves time for some sight-seeing , being it's first time in Israel.
He should do it then within the next 3 weeks. Perhaps he'll spend New Year's there. Netanyahu has been informed of this and will meet with Trump. He meets all major presidential candidates, no matter what party they belong to.
Trump told a huge rally of Jewish Republicans in Manassas, Virginia that he loves Israel, and that Israel is our real strong supporter. The thing is that he's never let any of us know exactly how he would handle the Israeli-Palestinian situation as a president. He's been unclear. He told the Associated Press reporters that it would take him his first 6 months to analyze whether or not peace could be achieved, and if he read what my cousin as said in her comment, he wouldn't start any peace process yet until he sees a radical change in the Palestinian Arabs.
"In Jewish rabbinic tradition, Aaron, the older brother of Moses and the first high priest of the Israelites, is the ideal peacemaker, known for “loving and pursuing peace.” Aaron would “pursue peace between a man and his fellow, husband and wife, family and family, tribe and tribe.” Aaron himself is described as never having fought with anyone: “If a man curses him, he says to him, ‘Peace be upon you!’ Should a man quarrel with him, he keeps silent.” In rabbinic literature, the high priest (and eventually the rabbi) was the model peacemaker." No wonder nobody has been able to act as the peacemaker. There hasn't been the likes of such a man yet.
I ask the question.
1. Is Iran being up front, honest and sincere about following the expectations they now have that they sought from the USA over their uranium deal? I've read that they've been breaking all their agreements.
2. Do you think the Palestinians want peace enough to be good neighbors to Israel and stop teaching their children to hate them and will put Israel back on their maps next to their Palestine?
UPdate:12/11/15 11:35am Trump cancelled trip to Israel so as to not put Netanyahu under pressure.
