T. Belman. Trump wins big in Indiana and Cruz drops out. Supporting settlement construction is a game changer in the search for peace. Essentially Trump is saying that settlement construction puts pressure on the Palestinians to compromise. He will probably also use the withdrawal of financial support for the Palestinians as another means to force them to compromise.
Donald Trump came down foursquare in favor of new construction of Jewish settlements in the West Bank on Monday, telling Dailymail.com that the controversial practice has to ‘keep going’ and ‘keep moving forward.’
There are ‘thousands of missiles being launched into Israel,’ he said Monday. ‘Who would put up with that? Who would stand for it?’
Trump said last year he would like to initially remain ‘neutral’ in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as president, a position that he believes would allow him a better opportunity to be seen as a peace broker.
Meanwhile he has repeatedly expressed his love for Israel and increasingly his support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his policies, all while repeatedly trashing the Barack Obama-backed Iran nuclear deal.
But in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Trump came out for the continued construction of new settlements irrespective of Israeli government policy.
Asked whether there should be a pause in new construction – which the Obama administration has pressured Netanyahu’s government to observe in order to bring the Palestinians to the negotiating table – Trump responded: ‘No, I don’t think it is, because I think Israel should have – they really have to keep going. They have to keep moving forward.’
‘No, I don’t think there should be a pause,’ Trump said. ‘Look: Missiles were launched into Israel, and Israel, I think, never was properly treated by our country. I mean, do you know what that is, how devastating that is?’
‘With all of that being said, I would love to see if peace could be negotiated. A lot of people say that’s not a deal that’s possible. But I mean lasting peace, not a peace that lasts for two weeks and they start launching missiles again. So we’ll see what happens,’ Trump added.
‘I’d love to negotiate peace. I think that, to me, is the all-time negotiation,’ Trump said, in reference to stalled peace talks – which Palestinian negotiators say won’t occur without a halt in new construction.
The Obama administration demanded in 2009 that Netanyahu’s administration freeze new settlement construction in an effort to get the two sides to the negotiating table.
Clinton herself admitted the position may have backfired in her memoir, ‘Hard Choices.’
‘In retrospect, our early, hard line on settlements didn’t work,’ she wrote.
Trump again shows how its done… when its over he will have Fox supporting him…Trump will forgive him and they will be good buddies…. Trump’s style of negotiation.. he offers you ten cents on the dollar and then goes up to 50 so you feel you are getting a good deal. those who cursed him are running back in reverse.
Sounds like a juggernaut, a blitzkrieg…. he hits them hard and then welcomes them back. He is teaching every one a lesson, they said he cant do that on the world stage but he will show that he can. He will also give and take but he does not start out by offering the farm like all the other dummies.
I think the dem ticket might be Biden- Warren… there will be leaks the dems will force her to resign and then they will bring in Biden.

I’m still an enemy of the state. Everybody’s State it appears, even the state of the auto-censor.
President Trump still has another battle before he faces the Hillarbeast.
Cruz is in the sanatorium in Calgary taking a rest cure.
Kasich retired to manage his for-profit prisons,he needs to pick up some quick cash profiting on human misery to reform losses.
(Quick thought here – why doesn’t Israel outsource it’s terrorist prisoners to America’s for-profit prisons? A win-win for everyone. Send them to America, they will have shorter life spans, costs will be down. And you gotta have some place to send several million terrorists, not enough room in Israel unless they are cremated – preferably live.)
.
..
But Trump still has to win against the GOP Fascist Establish, the minions of the power elite and Globalists.
Can they stop him and stop the Democratic will of the people as they have done so many times before??
Big Question Mark?.
.
I think Trump has more Latino support than previous candidates.
aand it doesn’t matter for two reasons:
1 There are enough R. Whites to cover it so long as they get out and vote..(Ann Coulter, I think echoed this)
2. If something is not done about it now they (all Democrat voting immigrants) will continue to pour in get citizenship and there will be a permanent Democratic Party rule from bringing in the immigrant vote. It’ll be eh end of Republican opposition Party and rule by globalist “progressive” Diversity (Salamis) Elite.
A world where Obumber never dies.
So it’s gotta be stopped.
I hope Trump wins but here is the picture on the up hill battle for 270 delegates. Latinos are important in Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Florida, and Texas. Trump has 85% negatives with Latinos.
LOL, imagine, its BB’s policy not to build in YS for Jews. A foreigner had to say it first… shame shame
Israel needs a trump… a complete change of paradigm.. someone who tells the defamers in the eu, un, to shut up and frack off. If Trump gets in he will back israel in that MO.
how will BB and the israeli pols deal with Trumps position… will they criticize it like they did when he said to ban the muslims? Will BB agree with it, LOL. Now we shall see who is who.
those in BY and other nationalists should start informing Trump privately through his Jewish advisors of what is needed before BB tries to sell trump on the TSS and withdrawing from YS. BB wont like this pressure to build, he cant have yaalon put trump in detention on false charges without evidence like he did ettinger, uriel and the soldier.

hopefully a time where common sense trumps PC BS
A new broom sweeps clean. We are going to be living in interesting times.
I believe that donald as president will kick some euro ass by talking straight and criticizing their double standards and anti semitism. I would love to see the euros asses kicked. He is the only one to have those cojones. In my view the euros are the jews greatest enemy, they are the ones who have been prodding the muslims against the jews since sykes picot. Without euro incitement, support and funding many jews and israelis would still be alive. Those bastards slaughtered the jews for 2000 years and stalked the jews back to their homeland to continue their libeling and swindling while paying the muslims to kill the jews. The bastards deserve the muslim invasion.
