COMPLETE MORONSMideast envoy George Mitchell has threatened that the U.S. could freeze aid to Israel if the country fails to advance peace talks, YNetNews.com reported.
Mitchell said the U.S. can legally cut its support for aid to Israel and that all options must remain open, YNet reports, though he clarified on PBS that the U.S. wants to put pressure on both sides in Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations.
The remarks come on the eve of his trip to Israel, aiming to bolster a peace process that failed to get back off the ground during the first year of the Obama
administration ."We think that the negotiation should last no more than two years," Mitchell said in an interview on PBS' "Charlie Rose." "We hope the parties agree. Personally I think it can be done in a shorter period of time."
WAY TO GO RAHM!

Why wait for the Peace talks to fail?
Cut the Aid to Israel Now! Peace will follow the next day!
Reverse Logic Mr. MORON !...
Maybe Obama has investments with Sukhoi, because THAT IS WHO WILL BENEFIT
Epaminondas,
I got the idea from this:-
"Sick" Of The Israelis And The Palestinians
Ben Rhodes has denied that Rahm said this to the Israelis. Well, it sure sounds like Rahm.
More to the point, who wouldn't be sick of the Israelis and the Palestinians at this point?
I too am sick of the Israelis for their contempt for the interests of their most important ally, their continuation of brutalizing colonization of the West Bank, their shameless ethnic engineering in East Jerusalem, their pulverization of Gaza, the direct manipulation of domestic American politics by their ambassador, and on and on. And, yes, I'm also sick of the war crimes and theocratic insanity of Hamas, and the lame passive-aggression of the PA, and the inability of the Palestinian leadership to prepare for actual governance as opposed to the victimized preening and theatrics and violence they prefer to the difficult compromises required if we are to move forward.
And if Rahm Emanuel is sick of them all, one can imagine how the average American feels. My own view is moving toward supporting a direct American military imposition of a two-state solution, with NATO troops on the borders of the new states of Palestine and Israel. I'm sick of having a great power like the US being dictated to in the conduct of its own foreign policy by an ally that provides almost no real benefit to the US, and more and more costs.
I would answer him thus:
"If Israel TRULY had contempt for the interest of it closest ally, Tehran would be a smoking RADIOACTIVE hole, along with every single site, IRGC base, and airbase, and naval site, along with refineries, wells, and oil fields. And PRIOR to that would have secured contracts with Russia for 4 1/2 generation aircraft.
That Israel has not attacked Iran in an irrevocable, decisive, cataclysmic fashion, when it took the USA 10 months to get enuf material in 1944 with THAT technology to get a weapon so reliable IT WAS NEVER EVEN TESTED, is a clear measure of how much they value our interests.
They have bet the lives of the majority of their people on America's ability diplomatically EVEN WITH THIS PRESIDENT to prevent Iran's acquisition and use (or assignment to HAMAS or others) of nuclear weapons
If you believe Israel is "an ally that provides almost no real benefit to the US" you don't know SHIT about weapons systems, OR the software which controls them.
FOR STARTERS. Who do you think WROTE the guidance software for the anti missile systems we use? FOR STARTERS.
Do some work on it.
Your SICK suggestion of NATO troops echoes PRECISELY Cass Sunnstein's wife Samantha Powers who advocated use of American troops against Israel to achieve peace. Such an action would guarantee FULL ISRAELI MILITARY RESISTANCE, death's of american in the tens of thousands, and if we and NATO mean business finishing the job someone started in 1939.
And THIS nation would be COMPLETELY SPLIT
No peace is possible while HAMAS and others insist Israel is sitting on a waqf. That makes it a religious war, and those insistent on finding a political solution to a religious war are ignorant fools destined to waste lives.
Therefore NO PEACE IS POSSIBLE.
A solution WILL TAKE GENERATIONS AFTER THE IDEA OF A WAQF DIES.
The world should just leave it alone until the day the arabs want their children to have better lives IN THIS WORLD in numbers large enough to enforce that view ON THEMSELVES.
That will take the least number of lives.
And that is their choice."
Maybe Obama has investments with Sukhoi, because THAT IS WHO WILL BENEFIT
Yep!
