The 2014 Gaza Conflict Factual and Legal Aspects

Why has Bennett and his party not left the ruling coalition, in disgust? Especially given that his base would all be expelled from Judea and Samaria, that being a Palestinian demand (which I do not for a moment believe the Talks will be, successful, that is). Also, another failure would further tarnish US's already weakened influence in the region after a decade and more of disastrous decisions (and failed wars), and put any future talks off the agenda for a decade or more (a good thing). Unless the US has - somehow - set it up for Israel to be the fall guy, such that US must, somehow be seen to succeed, also paving the way for Kerry's run for Pres. Office in 2016. I am not aware of any assurance given to Israel of support, such as severely dealing with Iran. Obama is timid, and will not advocate yet anot war in the region. The US Public would not stand for it. Perhaps only history will reveal the truth behind this Commedia dell'arte, this charade, this media circus. If, however they succeed, then as I've said elsewhere, you can kiss Israel Goodbye, and start packing up for another Exodus. A (second) militarized additional Arab State in former British Mandatory Palestine immediately adjacent to the 1949 Armistice lines (the first being Jordan) is a recipe for Collective National Suicide. I don't read that in their Declaration of Independence. It is not a suicide pact, as best I understand it. See my ICJS Faceboook thread at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/183122075102241/ the one that starts with: "This is one of the best things I have read on the new "Peace Talks", albeit flawed on Bibi's motivation. Please try and take the time. Would love to have a discussion on this, especially why Netanyahu is doing this...
