Schumer to Jewish Audience: Arabs and Palestinians ‘Don’t Believe There Should Be An Israel’

The left-leaning blog ThinkProgress isn’t happy with Sen. Chuck Schumer’s statement that Palestinians and Arabs “don’t believe there should be an Israel.” Here’s the text of the statement Schumer made at a Jewish function this past Sunday:

The reason there is no peace in the Middle East is very simple. It’s because the majority of Palestinians and the majority of Arabs don’t believe there should be an Israel. It’s that simple. Anyone who tries to figure out a way to solve this conflict without realizing that truth will never get anywhere.

ThinkProgress cites various polls that seem to contradict Schumer’s statements:

Polling conducted in 2009 indicated that 74 percent of Palestinians support a two-state solution based around the contours of the international consensus. Polling conducted in 2010 found that 71 percent support peace negotiations with Israel and that a majority of Palestinians oppose rocket attacks on the country.

    Wow. By what Chuck U. Schumer is implying, he is saying that only “A Majority of Arabs and Palestinians” do not want Israel to exist. By this, he tells the audience that even though there is a majority, he implies there IS a minority of Arabs and Palestinians that WANT Israel to exist. I think the media needs to go out and find those minority groups.

    The truth is: Chuckie only speaks the truth when it suits the crowd he’s talking to. Otherwise he would be on the Palestinians side. Chuckie is a psuedo-jew, one that attends bar-mitzvah’s for the free food and drink. The American Jew are customarily known as Progressive Jews or Liberal Jews who do not attend services on a routine basis. When they do, they attend the Liberal Jewish Synagogues which are run my female Rabbi’s, God forbid. The last remaining conservative Jewish synagogues are closing or reverting to MamaSan Rabbi joints.

      I think it’s important to note that generally, when someone is painted as believing that “state of Israel shouldn’t exist,” it is generally meant in the sense that the individual is against an explicitly ethnic/religious state ruling over an area with significant ethnic/religious minority populations. We can debate the worthiness of THAT position, but the point is it‘s a very different argument than simply suggesting the nation shouldn’t exist – the phrasing of which implies a desire to wipe out the Israeli people.

      From Sen. Bill Nelson in response to a letter stating that Obummer is WRONG in his assessment of what Israel should do to facilitate “peace” in the region:

      Thank you for contacting me regarding the United States policy toward Israel. I appreciate your taking the time to inform me of your views on this issue, and I share your concern about recent setbacks in the Middle East Peace Process.

      Our commitment to Israel should never be in doubt. Maintaining a strong U.S. — Israel partnership is critical. It’s a partnership rooted in history, democratic ideals, and steadfast friendship. Furthermore, helping Israel achieve peace with its neighbors while maintaining its security strengthens our strategic interests in the region.

      We must do everything we can to end the bloodshed and resume positive measures. I support the vision of two states living side-by-side in peace and security. Continued U.S. engagement and leadership is required to get us there. If you have additional concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.

      Sincerely,
      Senator Bill Nelson

      @ Better Red Then Dead

      Nice try to sugar coat it and deflect.
      In that case sir, I do not believe the nations of, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen, or Libya should exist. They should not be allowed to govern themselves. They should not have any political power or even a voice in the affairs of their people or self interests. Oh we wont “kill them all” but we will force them to be unwelcome nomad wherever they go in the world… just like you so eloquently stated about the state of Israel… because when people say “That Country should not exist” they are not talking about the extermination of anyone at all.

      When the world goes to socialist rule, and hundreds of millions of people are thrust into abject poverty and hundreds of millions of people die from starvation, riots and war, I hope I find you so I can take your ration of beans and maggot infested bread, eat it in front of you and burn down your cardboard shanty with my flint and steel.

      You can bet the lame stream media will IGNORE this story and sweep it under the rug! Chuck will get his “tongue-lashing” from Ms. Pelosi and things will be forgotten, then Chuck will say his comments were “taken out of context”. That is the usual progressive liberal practice!!!

      Both Israeli’s, and Palastinians have been guilty of atrocities and U.S foreign policy SUCKS when it comes to the Israeli-Palastinian conflict. I’m 48 years old and every administration, Republican and Democrat have done nothing worthwhile to advance the notion of real peace. The United States has a real double standard in it’s support for Israel and the amount of aid that they recieve from us. Israel recieves billions in aid, far more that any other country and they recieve loan guarntees. Also the way the legislation is written, Israel doesn’t have to pay the money back. I wish my banker would give me that option. It should also be pointed out, that all other countries recieving aid from the United States have to spend that money in the United States, but Israel is not required to do that. So, what does Israel decide to do? I’ll tell you….they decide to spend our tax dollars expanding settlements further in to the Palastinian Territory, which is against U.S. foreign policy. The United States will never be a legitimate broker for peace as long as no administration is willing to hold Israel accountable for the their actions, but of course that will never happen because in this country, if anyone says anything about a lack of fairness they’re labeled as a hater of the state of Israel. These policies are a huge joke and anyone who has studied history and U.S. foreign policy knows this. Israel is an ally, but we don’t get much bang for our foreign policy buck.

      @STIFROC

      I think you‘ve misunderstood what I’m trying to say. I’m not suggesting the Jewish people be expelled from the Israeli and Palestinian territories, I’m suggesting they stop trying to advance an ethno-religious state upon an area with such significant diversity. Put another way, I think the only reasonable end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the so-called “one-state solution,” where a single non-Judaic non-Muslim, secular state controls the entirety of the territory and all citizens within have full democratic rights. Jews and Arabs lived together for decades before 1948 (and largely peacefully as well, something a lot of people tend to overlook) and I don‘t think it’s a stretch to believe they could do so again.

      As for the list of various other states in the region – I don’t think a lot of those states (here referring to governments) should exist. But that‘s not the same as saying the nation’s shouldn’t exist. Many of the government are either tyrannical or theocratic, and neither of those systems allows all the people within them to prosper.

      While liberals keep their head in the sand and want to sing “Kumbaya” with the evils of the world, islam’s population continues to grow at record pace. Soon, they will think that America shouldn’t exist either, then the UK, etc., etc. What part of “they don’t like us and want to kill us all” don’t they understand??? Israel has the best chance of surviving an attack by their muslim neighbors, I believe much moreso than America does today, given the cow-towing “leader” we have in the white house now……

      Shumer was there for one reason only: to raise money for himself. He would not be aligned with the Democrat party if he really believed what he said. Obama and the rest of the Dems are not friends of Israel and never have been. They have always sided with the Palestinians and Shumer turned a blind eye when they did so. This political hack cares only about himself and his career….however inglorious and shabby it has been.

      I totally agree with Chuck Schumer’s statement that MOST ARABS and PALESTINIANS refuse to recognize the legitimacy of the Jewish State of Israel and I also agree that until the Arabs and the Palestinians agree that Israel has a right to exist, there will never be any peace accord between the Jews and the Palestinians. The“ball” is not in the “Jewish court”, it’s in the Palestinain court. and if the game is going to continue they have “to serve the ball” or make concessions on their ridiculous demands on Israel.

      When I went to school, there was no Israel on the map. There was a PALESTINE though. This was in the 40s. Find an old map and see for yourself. Jerusalem belongs to the Palestinians not the thieving jews!!
