Why does Kerry think that it would be Jews who would place Arabs into a second class situation, and not visa-versa, Jews have all but been eradicated from the Arab world.

I’m not advocating Israel running roughshod over the Palestinians, just a fair treatment by the international community, which as a whole favours the Arab position over the Jewish.

Kerry shouldn’t resign or anything but what he said is like kicking someone when they are down.

The UN, Euros like Catherine Ashton, UNHCR, all bemoan Israel’s every move and are all but silent on the dirty deeds elsewhere.

I am just making my feelings known, and trying to levy another perspective on this turn of events.

Israel is a sovereign state with an army, navy, and air force. The Palestinians don’t, so they don’t have the capacity to place Jews in a second class situation.

If the Arabs were going to do that, if they were capable of doing that—and here I’m talking about the much wider Arab world—they would’ve done so by now. They certainly exist in far greater numbers, they have military forces, and they basically have Israel surrounded. Why haven’t they?
