He knows exactly what he's talking about. The Israelis are either going to stop and even retreat with the settlements and move towards a two state solution, or continue expansion into Palestinian lands and become Jewish run apartheid state with a possible Arab majority. The end game that doesn't involve another war is going to either one or the other.
This expansionist of settlements are not what you pretend them too be. Simply, Israel continues to construct buildings on territory going to be retained by Israel under any event. Since Israel hasn't taken any "Palestinian land", UNSC 242 stands as the basic principle of a negotiated settlement on the issue. No negotiations, no peace, viva la status quo of no Palestinian state.
Considering the 1 million strong Arab presence who are not required to serve in the Israeli military enjoy the same benefits (welfare on some accounts), Apartheid is not accurate. If it was that bad, why are Arabs staying in Israel and not fleeing to their boyfriends over in Jordan or Egypt?
That analogy has been made many, many times. Support for Israel is waning, especially when a political insider like Kerry is making these statements.
Right, because when a political insider is in support of Israel, then they suddenly become Agents of the Jewish lobby...?
Lets cut the bull and its going to be simple. Agreement of peace and negotiated borders with the road map to two separate countries. If the only offer by Abbas is the One State Solution (which is simply another Final Solution of the 21st century) then viva la Status quo.
When you pick someone to be a go between that nobody likes, this is what you can expect.
When you pick someone that is openly hostile to one side, while clearly favoring the other side, this is what you can expect.
Kerry did not go to Israel to create peace. He went to Israel in order to further stoke the war between Israel and Palestine in order to give Obama an excuse to fund yet another group of terrorists like he has with al Qaeda in Libya and Syria.
Just last week peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians fell apart once again after President Mahmoud Abbas' ongoing connection to the terror group Hamas suggests he doesn't believe Israel has the right to exist.
The secretary of state said that if Israel doesn’t make peace soon, it could become ‘an apartheid state,’ like the old South Africa.
Israel is already an Apartheid state where one people acts as a master race and the others are slowly being rounded up and first put into gettos (The Gaza Strip is the World's biggest Ghetto) before being expelled. This is one of the reasons there are so many Palestinians in the Persian Gulf, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and North Africa not to mention Europe and the USA. Todays Palestinians are being put through a latter day Diaspora just like the Jews went through in the 1st Century AD when the Romans lost patience with Judea and sent the Jews packing to the four courners of the Empire or beyond. Israel and especially the right wing that backs Netanyahu have no intention of creating a non-Jewish state on the West Bank because the land of Israel can't be complete without the lands that formed Biblical Israel . The Israel if of Joshua,David, and Solomon consisted of the Jordan Valley, and the hills between it and the coast. Others like the Phoecians (aka The Phillistines) , Egyptians and other powers of the Fertile Cresent held on to the strip of land immediately along the coast. Israel of the Bible consisted of Hebron, Bethlahem, Jerusalem, Nazareth, Nablus and Jericho. These are all west bank cities. Places like Tel Aviv,and Haifa were not part of Biblical Israel. So anyone proposing a non-Jewish stateon the West Bank is on a fools arrand.

Nothing less than I'd expect from someone I consider to be an idiot and appointed by another idiot. That's not the kind of diplomacy I would expect or support from Washington. I'm embarrassed for my country.
I think John Kerry doesn't really know what he is talking about.
Yeah,again, only the israeli settlers and far right know what they talk about ?
Americans don't know what they talk about?
The usual israeli propaganda.John Kerry is right,israel is already an apartheid state,Nelson Mandela,Desmond Tutu and President Jimmy Carter already said it.
