FRANCE ANNOUNCES GLOBAL SUMMIT ON ISRAEL-PALESTINIAN PEACE:
Posted onFrance will host a meeting of ministers from 20 countries on 30 May, 2016 to try and relaunch the Israel-Palestinian peace process, Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault has announced. He said, however, that Israel and the Palestinian officials would not be invited to the meeting, which will take place in Paris. Ayrault explained that the aim was to prepare an international summit in the second half of 2016, which would include the Israeli and Palestinian leaders."The two sides are further apart than ever,” he admitted. But he said: "There is no other solution to the conflict than establishing two states, one Israeli and the other Palestinian, living side by side in peace and safety with Jerusalem as a shared capital. He said the discussions would be based on the 2002 Saudi peace initiative - approved by the Arab League but not Israel - which called on the Jewish state to withdraw from Palestinian territory captured in the 1967 Six Day War, including East Jerusalem, in exchange for a normalization of ties with Arab countries. (Times of Israel) What appears like wisdom to the world in carving up the State of Israel, whether it be through a false peace process with Israel’s foes, or through manipulating boycotts and decrees is direct disobedience to the Word of G-d and will trigger the most severe divine judgment. "I will gather all nations, and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will enter into judgment with them there on account of My people, My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; they have also divided up My land.” Joel 3:2
