In August 1967 Israel offered to return all the land captured in the recent war except East Jerusalem. What Israel wanted was a negotiated peace with recognized borders afterward. In September the Arabs declared the “Three No’s of Khartoum:” No negotiations, no recognition, no peace.

That has been true since 1948.

This administration is the one that for years has been telling Iran that it will not be allowed to get nukes. Yeah, I can see the dorktator shaking in his Gucchis over this bold stroke of Smart Diplomacy. At least the US didn’t condemn Israel for the heinous crime of defending itself against its enemies.

Arabs, of course, threw the usual hissy fits, according to the Y-Net article. I am always amused by the reaction of the Arab states that claim to be at war with Israel, and their buddies, screeching with outrage when Israel takes steps to defend itself from them. Hey guys, if you are at war with another state, you have no right to complain if it takes warlike actions against you if it deems them necessary.

If Israel’s enemies wanted peace, there would be peace tomorrow. They want war; they shall have it.
