Informed Comment | Thoughts on the Middle East, History and Religion: "Now Netanyahu has reneged on his pledge to negotiate in good faith, and has let the settlement freeze expire while making no effort to extend it. In other words, he humiliated the United States and let them know who is boss."

Israel should NEVER have built settlements in the land she took in the 1967 War. Plain and simple. Everyone knew that at the time. With the passage of time, when the lands were not returned, the Israeli memory faded. The world's did not. Return the land, Jerusalem excepted. Give the settlements to the Palestinians intact. Be done with this nonsense.
