Israeli premier rejects Kerry’s warning of binational state
Kerry called on leaders at the Saban Forum in Washington, D.C., to work harder to end violence in the region and renew commitments on both sides to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Speaking at the beginning of the weekly cabinet meeting, Netanyahu said Sunday morning that “Israel will not be a binational state, but in order for there to be peace, the other side needs to decide if they want peace”.
He added that the Palestinian Authority is continuing incitement against Israel. On Saturday, Kerry warned Israel about the dangers of the possible collapse of the Palestinian Authority, saying it would lead to a situation that would threaten the security of Israel and the Palestinian people. If you would like to discuss another topic, look for a relevant article.
He also charged Israel’s ongoing settlement activity suggests a future annexation of the West Bank territories.
Some 500,000 Israelis have settled in the West Bank and East Jerusalem among 2.4 million Palestinians.
John Kerry said calls from some Israeli politicians to let Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ administration wither are counterproductive and self-defeating for Israel.
Kerry has made Israeli-Palestinian peace one of his top priorities, but that process broke apart in April 2014 with no agreement. Following the results of the March 2015 elections, Israel is now reigned by the most right wing government in its history, with many of its members objecting to making concessions to the Palestinians and opposing the two-state solution. He was “effectively supporting and encouraging acts of terror”.
“Not only is he not condemning, he’s going to offer his condolences”, Netanyahu continued, referring to PA chief negotiator Saeb Erekat’s visit to the home of a Palestinian security officer who wounded an Israeli civilian and an IDF soldier in shooting on Thursday.
