Kerry go home

Ted Belman

Kerry is here to say Israel security key in peace talks and and to bring new ideas on security.

Obviously Netanyahu hyas boxed himself into a corner by stressing our security needs and not mentioning our legal rights to J&S and our desire or intent to keep a large portion of area C.

Fortunately, Palestinians reject US security ideas for Israel peace accord

As a result, US Moves Closer to Israel’s Stance in Peace Talks

But is not the focus on security a little premature? It will vary depending on where the border is drawn.

Kerry said about negotiations with Iran,

    “Israel’s security in this negotiation is at the top of our agenda, and the United States will do everything in our power to make certain that Iran’s nuclear program – a program of weaponization possibilities – is terminated.”

After making a deal with the Iranians, he has no credibility when he now stresses he is concerned with Israel’s security needs.

  1. Report: Germany to sell Israel 2 destroyers for 1 billion euros

    Germany has agreed to sell Israel two destroyers in exchange for one billion euros, AFP reported on Saturday, citing a report in German daily Bild.

    According to the report, the torpedo-laden destroyers are intended to provide protection for Israel’s natural gas installations. The destroyers will be used to protect Israel’s gas pipelines.

    In April, Der Spiegel reported that Israel may sell technologically advanced attack drones to the German military.

  2. Are the P5+1 Waging a Campaign against the Military Option?

    Since the signing of the Geneva agreement, the P5+1 leaders, especially President Obama, have made numerous statements that challenge the very idea of a military option against Iran as a realistic option. Evidenced by the conduct of the P5+1 states – even if this was not their intention – Iran is now presented as a country increasingly integrated into the family of nations and as an element that will help resolve the crisis, more than as the country responsible for the crisis in the first place. The strategic significance of this image is that Iran is increasingly distanced from its status as a radical, isolated state that under certain circumstances constitutes a legitimate object of military action.

    British Foreign Secretary William Hague was much more direct – even threatening – in cautioning that a military strike against Iran could sabotage the existing agreement. He stressed that Britain “would discourage anybody in the world, including Israel, from taking any steps that would undermine this agreement,” adding that “we will make that very clear to all concerned.”

    Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius of France also warned against use of the military option. In a media interview on November 25, he expressed the belief that ultimately, the agreement with Iran would improve the security of countries in the region. When asked whether there was a threat of an Israeli preemptive strike during the next six months, he replied, “At this stage, no, because no one would understand it.”

    It thus appears that Prime Minister Netanyahu’s repeated statements that Israel does not consider itself bound by the agreement with Iran and his harsh criticism of the accord have raised concerns among the P5+1 states about a possible Israeli military strike against Iran during the next six months. Such an attack, they correctly fear, would cause the collapse of the agreement in which they invested considerable efforts.

    Perhaps it is for this reason that the P5+1 leaders seem to be making intensive efforts to delegitimize the military option. At this stage their effort is presumably focused on preventing an Israeli military strike until the current agreement expires. President Obama has been the most explicit on this issue.

  4. Kerry reminds me of a bad used car salesman!

    Only Israel’s Jews are stupider in their fruitless quest to give away the Jewish homeland to the Arabs.

    Who fortunately enough, refuse to give Israel even a bad peace deal.
