ISIS forces are on the Jordanian-Iraqi border, and even if this is a long, long way away from Israel, that’s no reason Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu won’t use it as the newest excuse against Palestinian statehood.
In his comments today, Netanyahu hyped the “ISIS threat,” saying that it proved Israel needs to keep the West Bank-Jordan border to defend itself from any potential ISIS incursions from Jordan.
Though the border region is virtually bereft of settlements, Netanyahu and other hawks in the Israeli government have long opposed allowing the region to be ceded to an independent Palestinian state.
Without the Jordan border, “Palestine” would have no borders at all, and would simply be a walled in fraction of the West Bank set up as a Bantustan, eternally surrounded by Israel.
"GOD BLESS AMERICA"
Netanyahoo doesn't need excuses since they never planned on giving up that territory anyway – and everybody knows it. And he knows that if it should come up at the UN, the US will automatically veto.
From when McCain took the photo opportunity with ISIS to when these barbarians prove themselves to be nothing but savages from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait feed by Turkish, EU and USG, is time to examen what is the nature of AIPAC, these governments and Israel are, your choice, savages or barbarians or both with modernized politics and militarism regimes whom are in business creating these elements turning the time back to when they themselves were savages, yet in 2014 they feed on their creation.
It would serve Netanyahu right if one morning he got up and looked across the border and saw nothing but people standing there holding those damn ISIS flags. Those guys even have the flag made into billboards. Israel deserves ISIS as neighbors for all the crap they helped stir up in Syrian.
