[quote=Anonymous]I am inclined to support the recent position that the US took by abstaining from the UN vote. I generally dislike the way Israel exerts its power and treats the Palestinian people. It seems to be a general consensus (seeing as the whole Security Council voted against Israel) that the settlements are not ok. I do not understand the pro settlement argument. I read that some Israelis state a biblical claim to that land. What is the argument for the settlements? We are entitled to this land? I am seeing lots of posts of FB lambasting Obama and Kerry and comparing them to quite abhorrent people. I want to understand both sides better. If you have read any great articles recently, or seen news clips, please let me know. A lot of the news I've found just explains the vote and implications. [/quote]
