“The Germans will never forgive the Jews for Auschwitz.” – Zvi Rex, Israeli psychiatrist

Last month, Jason Greenblatt, who is the Trump administration’s special representative for international negotiations and, along with Jared Kushner, a co-leader of the administration’s yet-to-be-unveiled comprehensive proposal for Israeli-Palestinian peace, addressed the United Nations Security Council. In a paradigm-shifting speech, Greenblatt assailed the longstanding consensus of much of the morally relativistic “international community” — for which the anti-Semitic dullards of Turtle Bay serve as quintessential proxies — in no uncertain terms. Whereas the institutionally anti-Israel U.N. Security Council has long tried its best to unilaterally impose a “two-state solution” from the outside in — based on a fundamental misunderstanding of international law with respect to eastern Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria — Greenblatt rebutted that “if there is to be such a solution, only the parties themselves, through direct negotiations, can work this out.”
