    But the draft, obtained Thursday by The Associated Press, is almost certain to raise objections from the Israelis over its call for a halt to settlement expansion and from the Palestinians over its call to refrain “from referring a situation” concerning Israel to the International Criminal Court.

    The Palestinians joined the court in April and the ICC’s chief prosecutor has opened a preliminary investigation of alleged Israeli war crimes.

    The draft demands that Israel and the Palestinians take steps “to end the violence, avoid incitement and protect civilians.”

    New Zealand should seriously consider dividing into two autonomous countries: one for the original Aboriginals that populated the entire country; and one for the whites that came as settlers and pushed the original natives off their homeland.

    Once again another idiotic call for “peace negotiations,” completely ignoring the fact that it has failed every time as there is no one on the other side for Israel to talk peace with. Insanity is repeating the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

    Why can’t they say: “The palestinians are not truthworthy of making a peace deal and are a threat to the state of Israel. Palestinians should go live in Jordan with fellow muslims and Israel should take over the whole land.”? Isn’t this common sense?
