ROMNEY First it was Mitt Romney who spoke up against Obama’s demanding of Israel to go back to it’s 1967 borders, making Israel 8 miles wide. Then it wasMichele Bachmann on Twitter. Now 2012 Presidential candidate and former Minnesota Governor PAWLENTY TimPawlenty is speaking up on Obama’s disgusting demand. According to The Hill, Pawlenty said:
“To send a signal to the Palestinians that America will increase its demands on our ally Israel, on the heels of the Palestinian Authority’s agreement with the Hamas terrorist organization, is a disaster waiting to happen,” said Pawlenty. “At this time of upheaval in the Middle East, it’s never been more important for America to stand strong for Israel and for a united Jerusalem.”


Pawlenty also said that Obama’s Israel border demand is a “disaster waiting to happen.”
Newt Gingrich Leads Criticism on Obama's Israel-Palestine Remarks

Republican presidential hopeful and Catholic convert Newt Gingrich has labeled President Obama’sIsraeli-Palestinian policy a “disaster” during Sunday’s CBS program “Face the Nation.”


Gingrich said on “Face the Nation:” “I think that defining the 1967 border would be an act of suicide for Israel. They are totally non-defensible.
Outspoken Gingrich said Obama’s remarks were “extraordinarily dangerous,” and further stated that “a president who can’t control his own border probably shouldn't lecture Israel about their border.”

Gingrich was referring to Obama’s comments this week that Israeli-Palestinian negotiations be based on border demarcations from before the six-day war in 1967, in which Israel seized the West Bank, Gaza Strip among other territories. Furthermore, he stated that potential agreements should include land swap deals to reflect changes over recent decades.

“You have Hamas, which is a terrorist organization whose stated goal is the destruction of Israel. The idea that somehow we’re supposed to be neutral between Hamas and Israel is fundamentally flawed and I do not believe that we should have any pressure on Israel as long as Hamas’ policy is the destruction of Israel and as long as missiles are being fired into Israel and terrorists are preparing to try to kill Israelis.”
