    Biden is criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government during a speech to the advocacy group J Street. He says Israeli actions over the past few years have moved Israel in the wrong direction, toward a one-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    He’s citing the “steady expansion” of Israeli settlements in territory claimed by Palestinians for a future state.

    The vice president says he finished his recent trip to Israel believing there’s no political will from either Palestinians or Israelis necessary for peace.

    Biden is also criticizing Palestinian leaders for failing to condemn specific acts of terrorism committed by Palestinians against Israelis.

    Yeah, Joe, because you guys have done a great job everywhere else. Oh well, it is J Street, you may as well send them them home with the message they want to hear.

    At the 2012 Democratic Convention, the delegates voted by acclimation to force Israel to return to 1967 borders. It’s the J Street pro-arab Dems we are frustrated with. They apparently support bus bombing terrorism and Hamas tunnels from gaza.

    Maybe USA should first make peace with ISIS and we’ll see how that goes. “Biden is also criticizing Palestinian leaders for failing to condemn specific acts of terrorism committed by Palestinians against Israelis” Failing to criticize??? Are you crazy?? Abas, Hamas etc all praised the blowing up the bus yesterday. Condemn?? A lot of Westerners does not comprehend that Muslims want you dead and out of the way so that Sharia will take over the world. Idiot.

    As an Israeli, I think that most of us are more “frustrated” than Biden or Kerry by Biden and Kerry. Don’t they understand that there is no one to talk to and nothing to talk about. Counting the days until these jokers leave office and leave us alone. We’re doing great without them.

    Biden and Kerry are but high profile stooges being manipulated by Obama and his Israel hating pack of rats. They can all go to hell as they deserve to do.
    Obama is so desperate to seal his legacy with a false peace, that the price it can extract in Jewish blood means nothing to him. In 2008 I warned against what he may do and it is all coming true. There are times like this that being right comes with no satisfaction. BHO is the most serious threat to our survival since Hitler. He cannot be allowed to succeed on his march towards Israel’s demise.

    The moral equivalence here is newsworthy. Can’t wait for you to retire, Mr. Biden.
