Kerry says a few words for Palestinians at AIPAC–and what is the sound of one hand clapping?


When he called for a two-state solution now, when he came down on settlement expansion, there was just a smattering of applause for John Kerry at AIPAC today. Settlements "empower the enemies of peace in the region," Kerry said. And as Matt Duss wrote on Twitter, "Crickets." Just a handful of applauders when he called for "freedom of movement" in the West Bank. This group knows that Israel has turned right, and they are moving with Israel.
