UN, EU denounce approval of fresh settlement homes
The European Union, United Nations and others panned the Israeli government for green-lighting construction projects in the West Bank settlement of Beit El and Jewish neighborhoods in Jerusalem beyond the 1967 Green Line boundary, the Times of Israel reported.
The recent decision "calls into question the Israeli government’s stated commitment to a negotiated two-state solution in the Middle East Peace Process," a EU statement read.
"We urge the government of Israel to urgently reverse recent decisions and put an end to settlement expansion," it continued. [ Source ]

Funny how settlement building threatens peace, but Palestinian rocket fire and the tunnels don't.
Please please please let us elect strong leadership that will deal in truth - think how different the U.S. and the world would be if we had truth at our core
