Netanyahu's Speech

Submitted by Christopher Ventura (United States), Jun 15, 2009 at 12:59

Today Binyamin Netenyahu gave his speech and some criticize him for mentioning the creation of a palestinian state. However, I see this as a move to let the whole world, especially the UN, see that Arab states will not accept a Jewish state. The Arab states were given several opportunities to coexist with Israel, but walked out of the negotiations without making any demands or changes to the proposed plans. And that is because they refuse to coexist.

By placing everything on the table Netanyahu knows they will do the same as they did in the past and this will shine the spotlight on the true intentions of the Arab states. When this happens we, meaning the U.S. and the UN, must decide what actions we are going to take and intervene and support Israel in their right to defend. Israel has only one friend and that is the U.S. we must pray for the peace of Israel so that God will continue to bless America
