Obama Is Right When He Says Netanyahu Shoots Israel in Foot
So now we have the journalist Jeffrey Goldberg, presumably based on conversation(s) with officials of the Obama

are." And then, with "each new settlement announcement Netanyahu is moving his country down a path toward
near-total isolation."

The Israeli Peace Now movement (Shalom Achshav) today released an explosive report detailing the
record of Prime Minister Netanyahu's government on settlements over the course of its full term in office (April
2009-present). The report, based on official Israel government statistics, reports, and Peace Now field
research, documents how over the past four years, the Netanyahu government has used settlements as a tool to
systematically undermine the chances of achieving a viable, realistic two-state solution to the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict, despite Netanyahu's rhetorical embrace of such a goal.
The full report is available in English, here.
