One that calls for a response

Howard Berman, the Chairman of the House’s Foreign Affairs Committee said: “The US reaffirms its strong support for a negotiated solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”… “The US reaffirms strong opposition to any attempt to establish or seek recognition of a Palestinian state outside of an agreement negotiated between Israel and the Palestinians,”… that real and lasting peace could only be achieved through direct negotiations between the two sides”. … The house also called on the Palestinian leadership to cease all efforts at circumventing the negotiation process, including efforts to gain recognition of a Palestinian state. It also calls on Abbas to resume direct negotiations with Israel immediately and expresses support for the Obama Administration’s opposition to a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state.
 
God says:  “I will bless those who bless you and whoever curses you I will curse.”… “I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you.”… “All who rage against your will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.”… “No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.”  .
 
The Jerusalem Connection says: Through all the geo-political gyrations of current and past administrations in their peace policies regarding Israel and the Palestinians there has been one constant. And that is the pro-Israel stance of the U.S. Congress. No doubt one of the major reasons for this is the large number of Jews in Congress. Many may be destructively liberal on most issues but in terms of Israel they are supportive. Too often that means they support a two-state solution which is a wreck waiting for a place to happen. Still, they are for a safe and secure Israel as a legitimate homeland for the Jewish people. God’s people must continue to press for that support but at the same time never cease to claim that the ultimate basis for Israel’s right to its national homeland is based on the irrevocable and eternal covenants of the God of Israel.
