Rep. Rothman vows Congress will wreak ‘devastating impact’ on Palestinian economy if P.A. doesn’t drop statehood bid

Adam Kredo quotes Rep. Steve Rothman in the Washington Jewish Week:

“My certain belief is that,” if the Palestinians don’t abandon their U.N. bid, “Congress will react strongly and negatively…. The P.A. is acting irrationally and against its own interests,” he said. “These [congressional] resolutions are unambiguous, and when put into effect … will have a devastating impact on the Palestinian economy. Most of the Palestinian leadership has decided to turn a blind eye to the terrible consequences that will result upon their own people.”

And look who the Democratic lobby is in bed with. Here is Joe Walsh, Republican congressman from Illinois, talking to Kredo:

Walsh asserted that “there is no such thing as a two-state solution, and no such thing as land for peace. The ultimate peace is going to come through annexation, through Israel having sovereignity over the whole land, from the Mediterranean to Jordan.”
