Keukasmallies Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 SecSt Kerry and UN SecGen Ki-Moon (not a verb) spin wheels in talks that neither represent nor acknowledge the objectives of the combatants. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2014/07/25/kerry-works-toward-cease-fire-as-deadly-clashes-escalate-in-gaza/ How many cease fires have failed in the Middle East recently? How many at-bats has Derek Jeter had this week? How many...well, you get it. Israel may be just a bit tired of being shelled 24/7, and Israel may just a bit more tired of lame cease fires that don't work. Israel may be even more vexed at diplomats who ride in to save the day, negotiate a weak-at-best agreement, then immediately leave the zip code only to see the rockets red glare before they land at Andrews Air Force Base.

TakeYouToTasker Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Israel has stated that at this point they will not agree to any cease fire that isn't a step towards a permanent fix. They demand the disarmerment of Gaza, enforcment of the ceasefire, and the resoration of the Palestinian Authority to power. Very reasonable, at this point, I believe.

Pretty soon you'll hear diplomats talking about the "cease fire process," much like the "peace process." Neither of which is a "process." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Other than marrying a rich crazy broad, has John Kerry ever successfully achieved a goal he has set for himself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
