Republican National Committee: One State Solution - Israel

[Sean Osborne]

Last week at the Republican National Committee at its winter meeting meeting in New Orleans, LA adopted a resolution that calls for a one state solution to the never ending crisis in the Middle East. The resolution resolves for a single state under one law in the territory of Israel, Judea and Samaria with Israeli citizenship rights extended to all. This resolution all but acknowledges the results of Asaph's Psalm 83 prophetic prayer.



The resolution (part of the Republican National Platform for the 2012 Presidential Election) has a preamble which describes Eretz (the Land) of Israel as God-given to the Jews and resolves "that the members of this body support Israel in their natural and God-given right of self-governance and self-defense upon their own lands, recognizing that Israel is neither an attacking force nor an occupier of the lands of others; and that peace can be afforded the region only through a united Israel governed under one law for all people."

This is a tremendous departure from the anti-Genesis 12:3 Republican 2008 platform which stated: "We support the vision of two democratic states living in peace and security: Israel, with Jerusalem as its capital, and Palestine."

Those who say there is no difference between Republicans and Democrats have another thing coming.

GOP Calls for One Israel 'For All People'


Text of the RNC Resolution sponsored by Cindy Costa, Committeewoman South Carolina:

AN RNC RESOLUTION TO COMMEND THE NATION OF ISRAEL FOR ITS RELATIONS WITH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

WHEREAS, Israel has been granted her lands under and through the oldest recorded deed as reported in the Old Testament, a tome of scripture held sacred and reverenced by Jew and Christian, alike, as the acts and words of God; and

WHEREAS, as the Grantor of said lands, God stated to the Jewish people in the Old Testament; in Leviticus, Chapter 20, Verse 24: “Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey”; and

WHEREAS, God has never rescinded his grant of said lands; and

WHEREAS, along with the grant of said lands to the Jewish people, God provided for the non-Jewish residents of the land in commanding that governance must be in one law for all without drawing distinction between Jewish and non-Jewish citizens, as contained in Leviticus 24:22, and

WHEREAS, the Nation of Israel declared its independent control and governance of said lands on May 14, 1948, with the goal of re-establishing their God-given lands as a homeland for the Jewish people; and

WHEREAS, the United States of America, having been the first country to recognize Israel as an independent nation and as Israel’s principal Mideast ally, has enjoyed a close and mutually beneficial relationship with Israel and her people; and

WHEREAS, indeed, Israel is the United States of America’s greatest friend in the Mideast; and

WHEREAS, the roots of Israel and the roots of the United States of America are so intertwined that it is difficult to separate one from the other under the word and protection of almighty God; and

WHEREAS, there are those in the Middle East who have sought to destroy Israel from its inception as anation; and

WHEREAS, those same enemies of Israel also seek to destroy the United States of America; and

WHEREAS, the United States of America and the nation of Israel have enjoyed cordial and mutually beneficial relations since 1948, a friendship that should continues to strengthen with each passing year.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the Republican Nation Committee that the committee by this resolution commends the nation of Israel for its relations with the United States of America.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the members of this body support Israel in their natural and God-given right of self-governance and self-defense upon their own lands, recognizing that Israel is neither an attacking force nor an occupier of the lands of others; and that peace can be afforded the region only through a united Israel governed under one law for all people.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and Senate Leadership and each of the legislatures of the states within the United States of America with the request and recommendation of this body that a similar resolution to that stated herein be proposed within their respective bodies.

those of you who think that there IS a difference have another thing coming.....


Our government is corrupted beyond belief.....and you have to look no further than who is running for President on the GOP side

To say they are any different is laughable.... just because the RNC comes out in support of Israel in a statement does not mean that they will put it into reality if elected....

Ron Paul- Anti Israel
Newt Gingrich- Serious moral issues, wants government solutions to problems instead of holding people accountable
Rick Santorum- Inconsistant record when it comes to conservative God fearing principles
Mitt Romney- Does Romney care ring a bell?

No need to mention the Democrats as their horrid record speaks for it's self....... Joe Lieberman sold himself out when he acctped the VP position with Al Gore even thoug he KNEW that his faith and what he would have to support didn't line up....


If I had to take a serious guess it would be that they are looking to get votes and nothing else for their presidential candidate....by appealing to the Jewish and Christian vosters who agree with this sentiment.

Edit: Not all people working for the government are corrupt but it definately is decent majority and a lot of people in positions of power

[Sean Osborne]

just because the RNC comes out in support of Israel in a statement does not mean that they will put it into reality if elected....

You're telling us that Republican's will nominate a presidential candidate who is inconsistent with, as in diametrically opposed to, the RNC national platform?

Now that is patently laughable glass-half empty garbage!

The current GOP candidates are all human beings - even that libertarian foreign policy lunatic Ron Paul. Being wrong on certain positions is par for the course of being a fallen human being. Knock-knock. Hello?

As for the truly viable current GOP candidates:

Newt Gingrich- Is very Pro-Israel. "Never Underestimate the Hold that Israel Has on the American Heart"

Rick Santorum- The 8th point of his 10-point foreign policy states: "we must stand by Israel, especially at a time when it appears increasingly to be standing alone. The recent dislocation of the old order in the Middle East will usher in a new one, and anti-Israeli elements are working overtime to take advantage of the opportunity."

Mitt Romney- "Israel is the United States’ closest ally in the Middle East but its security problems are heightened in these times. In his first 100 days, Mitt Romney will reaffirm as a vital U.S. national interest the existence of Israel as a Jewish state. To ensure Israel’s security, Mitt Romney will work closely with Israel to maintain its strategic military edge."

you go right a head and keep believing that line of bullsnot they keep telling you...... reality is a whole different ball game and for you to so foolishly think that the republicans are fundimentally different than the democrats because they come out and say they "support Israel" is laughable

Our governmental policy has been a two state solution since who knows when (this solution was proposed sometime in the 1930's well before Israel became a state)

So before you go blindly following the RNC you might want to look at the history of the matter.....lol

Obama supports it
Bush suppored it
Clinton supported it
Bush Senior supported it
Regan was very pro Israel but yet opened a dialog with the other side at the end of his term
Carter supported it

While the whole time claiming to be pro Israel........

Newt also supports a two state solution Straight from his politcal team:

“Newt Gingrich supports a negotiated peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, which will necessarily include agreement between Israel and the Palestinians over the borders of a Palestinian state,” the spokesman, R.C. Hammond, said in a statement.

“However, to understand what is being proposed and negotiated you have to understand decades of complex history, which is exactly what Gingrich was referencing during the recent interview with The Jewish Channel.”

Contrary to your assertations, Ron Paul is NOT, I REPEAT NOT pro Israel. His long history of comments back that up

Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum appear to be on the same page........Pro Israel as of now but they are big spenders of government money in other areas that make them undesireable candidates.......

I guess we'll see what is what when we get there won't we?

I bet you belived our current President when he claimed to be christian too.....oh, wait only democrats say one thing and do another....

[Sean Osborne]

you go right a head and keep believing that...

Have you bothered to read the full text of the RNC resolution? Obviously not. Go back and re-read the thread OP and see the full context of the Bible-based resolution before you embarrass yourself any further.

As usual YeuEmMaiMai you attempt to discuss a topic from the point of having ZERO direct or specific knowledge. Now that is hilarious comedy.

[YeuEmMaiMai]

Read what? a bunch of meaningless words? I am going to wait until they put their money where their mouth is.....


and before you start talking about what positions I speak from let me remind you of this

Who cares? They're mostly Muslims who'd slit your throat given half a chance. This is breaking news?

Talk about having no compassion for others.

[Sean Osborne]

Who said anything about compassion? I was speaking to the facts as they are printed in the text regarding the GOP resolution on Israel.
