Biased Reasoning from Obama and Kerry From Actual Facts

This is what Obama is demanding of Israel, to go back to a 9 mile width of land.That's the pre-1967 Armistice lines.  

This is why Netanyahu cannot possibly consider going back to pre-1967 Armistice lines.  Look at the distances that rockets, mortars and missiles can reach.  Obama is asking Israelis to commit suicide! What audacity; he doesn't even study the map, evidently.  

1917 was the end of World War I in which the Ottoman Empire colluded and joined Germany in a world-wide battle against allies of the West.  We all know that the Allies won the war and the Ottoman Empire lost their empire.  Britain was given the mandate over it as they had been allies in the battle and fought in the Middle East.  With the help of the Jewish chemist, Chaim Weizmann, they had won their battles due to improved ammunition from Chaim.  Also on their side was the Arab leader, Abdullah, and his horsemen.  We've seen movies about this episode.  

The story of how the Jewish Homeland was cut down in 2 years from a 1920 promised Jewish Homeland mandate of Great Britain to 1923.  

Nadene Goldfoot                                         

On April 24, 1920, the British mandated land in the Middle East-area of ancient Israel, land 120,466 sq km. (46,512.1826 sq miles) , was set aside to be the Jewish Homeland.

The “Mandate for Palestine,” an historical League of Nations document, laid down the Jewish legal right to settle anywhere in western Palestine, between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, an entitlement unaltered in international law. The “Mandate for Palestine” was not a naive vision briefly embraced by the international community. Fifty-one member countries – the entire League of Nations – unanimously declared on July 24, 1922:

“Whereas recognition has been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country.”

                                                                               

By July 24, 1922, the Jewish Homeland had been cut by Britain and reduced by 77% of the original plan. Now the Jews were promised 28,166 sq km (10,874.953 sq miles) , but not including Judea and Samaria, their original homeland.  Instead, Britain had appeased Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia who wanted to be a king by giving away most of the Jewish Homeland. which became Jordan.It is important to point out that political rights to self-determination as a polity for Arabs were guaranteed by the same League of Nations in four other mandates – in Lebanon and Syria (The French Mandate), Iraq, and later Trans-Jordan [The British Mandate].

In 1948, when Israel was fighting the battle of their life 5 minutes after declaring statehood in their first of many battles, their War of Independence  (29 November 1947) when Arabs responded with violence to the United Nations resolution on Palestine, which they never have accepted, and which lasted until the signing of the Armistice Agreements in 1949.

                                                                                  

                                                                                   

Now look at how the 10 thousand sq miles has been cut down to accommodate the Arab Palestinians who for 69 years have been SAYING they must have their own homeland but not accepting any conditions other than the whole 10,000 sq miles which was Israel Israel's given domain after much cutting that Israel was forced to accept or be left with nothing.  

And outgoing President Obama and John Kerry have the audacity to scold Israel and take them to the Security Council for allowing the building of some apartment buildings for  Jews in the rightful land they won in the war of 1967 when a gang of Arab nations attacked Israel all at once-and won ; of course miraculously!  Israelis want to live, not die!  

After all the shenanigans pulled on Israel through the ages, the bets must have been that the Jews would fold and be finished that summer in July of 1967, and they didn't.  They were stronger and wiser than ever.  Still the enemies of Israel continue to try and have spent all the United Nations time finding fault with them over not giving into Palestinians, enemies who refuse to accept their lives, their presence once again in the Middle East.    

As far as nations go, it was Israel who was there first as a nation, for there has never ever been a nation of Palestine.  The Romans picked that name to hurt the Jews of Judah who fought for 3 years against them from 132 to 135 and held Jerusalem during that time.  

Am Yisrael Chai!  The Jewish people live!  Despite such organizations of bullies-the United Nations.  
I want to know what the Palestinian Arabs have been asked to do and give up in the name of peace.  Egypt and Jordan are the only ones who have signed peace agreements.  That must be considered.  The Palestinians have not done so in the length of Israel's life of almost 69 years since May 14, 1948.  Yes, I'd agree, the academic idea of a peaceful Palestine next door to Israel was giving them half of what was left to the Jews for an Israel, but if peace was promised, the Israelis would go for it; for they want peace more than the Palestinians obviously do for to Jews, life is the most important thing..  To Jews, life is not something to be wasted.  Now, the pundits may be right.  This resolution  is not helping to bring about a Palestine coming in peace; so like Netanyahu has  said, "A 2 state solution?  Not yet; not at this time Palestinians are not ready.."    And believe me, when I say that the Israelis will not go for a Palestine that is another Gaza, another platform to shoot rockets, mortars and missiles into Israel.
