Republican platform committee’s ‘two-state’ language on Israel’s land, influenced by Netanyahu, Cantor and AIPAC <\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Former Senator Jim Talent (R-MO) quoted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to demonstrate that the original platform language was consistent with the Israeli position. However, earlier this year in January, the Republican National Committee adopted a resolution that some read as repudiating a two-state solution. Although, an RNC spokesman stressed that the resolution did not represent the party’s position and that all that mattered was the party’s platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last Tuesday, Jewish Congressman Eric Cantor (R-VA) and AIPAC, the largest conservative Jewish lobby, pushed for a “two-state” position to be included in the Republican platform. It was approved by vote and is now awaiting formal approval at the Republican Convention.<\/span><\/p>\n

Romney, Netanyahu, and Cantor were given personal copies of “Eye to Eye – Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel.” They have been told of Israel’s biblical rights to all of Judea and Samaria and the consequences of dividing Israel. However, they have chosen the world view and not the biblical.<\/span><\/p>\n
