World Powers Demand Israeli settlement freeze


www.msnbc.msn.com
MOSCOW - The so-called Quartet of Middle East mediators called on Israel to freeze all settlement activities and denounced Israel's aim to build new housing in East Jerusalem Friday.

"The Quartet urges the government of Israel to freeze all settlement activities ... and to refrain from demolitions and evictions," said the statement read by Ban.



Those plans this month caused prospects for indirect Israeli-Palestinian talks to collapse and prompted Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who i

As long as there are rabid evangelic Christians, the Obama administration must tread lightly. Afterall, most Americans see America as a providence of Israel. They believe the Khazars are the Hebrews. In the same breathe they criticize Obama for not getting anything done, they don't understand their rabid support for the apartheid state and its dual-citizen traitors is the problem behind everything going on right now, including the deteriorating American economy. Israel is the problem and Obama is damned if he do damned if he don't. The country is equally divided on what to do with the Zionist parasites. There's only so much Obama can do without the rabid Christians participating in extremism. I'm just relieved that nobody overseas buys the BS from the Zionists.

Looks like it is time to send another strongly worded letter. They are quite effective.

I dont buy this at all - its just a political farse... And hey, what Blair is doing there?

Looks like EU-USA-RUSSIA-UN had to get some issue, where they can join together after Iran sanctions didnt work out. How naive is to think that announcement from new settlement building could be just "sad coincidence" when Biden was in the country, and all focus of the media stood there.

This is just a political show, where our minds will get distorted. Everybody knows that Israel-USA relationship is widely condemned, and talks from conspiracies are running high in all political levels all over the world about Zionist influence. Its time for USA to stay in opposition, and new settlements are good, and how I see it - planted reason to show very different picture than reality behind scenes.

( When you look that picture above - How much more Zionist it could be, except Lavrov - but he is in back... No presidents in this picture either. )

Problem - reaction - solution = Settlement plans - Rage and hate - Staying in previous situation, halting plans - but continuing occupation as usual.

Remember this:

Israel has threatened for years now, that if it will be left alone to handle Iran and its neighbors - military option is only option left to handle problems. In picture of media - ISRAEL IS REALLY NOW LEFT ALONE!

In that game its just one purpose - to build alliances between USA-Russia-EU-UN for coming Iran crisis and negotiations, and give peoples fault picture, where USA is sovereign from Israels demands. Also this gives wrong picture to Israeli people, that they are left alone to fight their enemies - Iran and terrorism. (IDF Propaganda)

No matter if Israel is going to halt settlement planning or not, it doesnt change the situation in country, and in its occupied territories. Its mend to show picture, where Palestinians still do have a some chance to negotiate their situation better, and drive Hamas and Fatah away from each others again.

This is a scam.

LOL, like Israel cares what the international community thinks. They've never honored any of the agreements they've made. Heck, they even murdered UN relief workers during a ceasefire and nobody did anything about it. Well, I take that back, we gave them more foreign aid as a reward, so that's something I guess.

Israeli forces have reportedly opened fire on a UN relief agency convoy in the Gaza Strip during its 3-hour military ceasefire.

UN spokesman Adnan Abu Hasna said Thursday that Israeli soldiers attacked a relief truck even though the United Nations had coordinated the delivery with Tel Aviv and the vehicle was marked with a UN flag and insignia.

"It has resulted tragically in the death of one and the injury of two others," said the head of the UN relief agency in Gaza, John Ging.

Tel Aviv declared a three-hour lull in its 13-day incursion into Gaza on Thursday to allow humanitarian aid pass into the beleaguered strip.

This comes as Israeli attacks on three UN-run schools has killed at least 43 civilians and injured over 150 others -- most of whom were seeking shelter inside the school to escape the arbitrary Israeli strikes.

The United Nations had reacted in shock to the incident and stepped up calls for an independent inquiry into the attack -- the deadliest since the Israeli offensive in Gaza began Dec. 27

"There must be a serious and independent investigation into the shocking loss of civilian life that took place near the UN school and that has characterized this conflict," said deputy Middle East director for Human Rights Watch, Joe Stork.

"The building was clearly waving a UN flag, there is no safe haven in Gaza. Look at what happened in Jabaliya yesterday," said Chris Gunness the spokesman for the UNWRA, the UN agency running the school.

Tel Aviv tried to justify the incident as an attack on a militant stronghold.

The UN, however, has dismissed the Israeli claims.

Israel waged war on the Gaza Strip on December 27 and began what it claims to be a "long-term" ground offensive on the Palestinian territory last Saturday.

Thus far, the Israeli aggression has killed at least 763 Palestinians and injured over 3,100 others -- a large number of casualties are civilians.
