The Palestinians promptly destroyed all the greenhouses that could have provided income for them and then used the land as a staging area to fire rockets at Israeli civilians. The Palestinians also used the Gaza Strip to build underground tunnels to move troops through to attack Israeli civilians. The Palestinians got the land, but Israel did not get the peace.

The Wailing Wall is Jewish&#8211;it doesn&#8217;t in any way belong to the Arabs. The Golan Heights is strategic&#8211;it is a great place to lob rockets at innocent Israeli civilians&#8211;it was used for that purpose before the 1967 War. The 1967 boundaries were never actually boundaries&#8211;they were cease-fire lines drawn until a solution could be worked out. They were indefensible at the time, and they are indefensible now. Forcing Israel to give up more land for an illusive peace will only create more war. It is truly a shame that the Obama Administration chooses not to understand this. I am sure Israel, along with those who sincerely want peace in the Middle East, is looking forward to the Trump Administration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breitbart.com posted an article today citing a Times of Israel report stating that Arab leaders support John Kerry&#8217;s proposals for solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
