As long as they keep bombing and support the destruction of Israel, I think Biden has no idea he can hit his a$$ with both hands.

No, he is like Obama and Kerry. They just want to put a feather in there cap. The palistinians were a creation of Yaser Arafat. That land has been inhabited by Jews for over three thousand years.

No. It is the Palestinians that have been the intransigent party, preferring terrorism to peace with Israel. Biden and Obama both tilt toward the terrorists and against the only free democracy in the region. One must assume anti-Semitism is at the root of their thinking.

I am neither a scholar nor an Historian, I can say unequivocally that peace takes commitment on all sides. I am not trying to minimize the seriousness of the situation in that region of the world and make it appear to have a simplistic solution howver, many waring countries have found peace, it all starts with an olive branch!

Did VP Biden ever criticize Arafat for not leading Palestinians toward peace?

No. Their only doing what comes natural: protecting their families and property ,a and their own lives.

If Palestine were to lay down their guns tomorrow, there would be no war. If Israel were to lay down theirs, there would be no Israel - Benjamin Netanyahu

Fair enough. Netanyahu said it. But it's true.

SPC Michael Mullins For some reason despite his history and reputation for off the cuff impromptu remarks, can't help but believe that the VP only says publically things which are approved by the WH, and that the VP is used as a type of messenger or spokesperson for admin policy views, positions or changes. Things like this are probably part of the overall strategy to control and manage the Israelis to keep them from getting ahead of US. IMHO

If Joe Biden is right about anything, it's a accident inasmuch as just about everything that comes out of his mouth is an accident. That being said, yes, of course Israel has mishandled the conflict on occasion. However, on most occasions it has handled it as best as anyone could under the circumstances. Israel has been under attack almost constantly ever since its founding and, as Golda Meir said so eloquently, there will be peace when Arab mothers love their children more than they hate Jews. On that day, and that day only, the mistakes will end. Except, of course, Joe Biden. He'll continue sticking his foot in his mouth to his end.

Biden is an ignoramus with a big mouth. He's proven that countless times. I've been to Israel. I've met with and observed, close up, military operations in that country. I was once minutes out of an Israeli bordertown with Gaza when a missle barrage struck the area we had been in, which included a school and market. Two killed, dozens injured. These attacks are constant from Hezbollah in Syria and Gaza. Joe should try to live in that environment daily, without armoured vehicles and housing, and see how he likes it.

Can both sides do better? Certainly. But if you have a neighbor who houses a hundred dogs that bark day and night, the police arrest him on your complaints which a judge always dismisses for "freedom of speech and expression" reasons, sooner or later something will boil over. No matter whom you are!!!
