With USA’s election campaign gaining momentum; any Palestinian
hope of relief in their sufferings will be sidelined. Not wanting to gain the
ire of the gods of Zion; neither Obama nor any republican hopeful will say or
do anything that will be perceived by Zionists as anti-Israel not necessarily
anti-Semitic. As far as Israel is concerned; the world can go nuts for as long
as they have the veto power of the Beast of Empire. They will do as they please…

Mr Churkin, the council president, said the frustration over the impasse in Israeli-Palestinian talks spilled out in statements from the four European Union council members, the Non-Aligned Movement, the Arab group and the group of emerging powers that included India, Brazil and South Africa.
Clearly referring to the US, Mr Churkin said dismissively that one delegation believed things would miraculously sort themselves out on their own. "The call for bilateral negotiations without preconditions would seem a normal thing to ask for," he said.
But Mr Churkin said the Palestinians were overwhelmed militarily and in every other way by the Israelis and without preconditions they would not get a fair deal in negotiations.
The diplomats - including key US allies in Europe - also criticized the council's failure to take action against escalating violence by Israeli settlers and urged a speedy resumption of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations.
In February, according to German sources, Mr Netanyahu telephoned Ms Merkel to express disappointment at Germany's support of a UN resolution condemning Israel for its construction in settlements, a resolution vetoed by the US.
"How dare you," Ms Merkel reportedly responded to Mr Netanyahu's criticism. "You're the one who disappointed us. You haven't made a single step to advance peace."
