In the 1980's Jerry Falwell made a mockery of these words. Considering their affinity for the American Christian Right, it's not surprising that Bibi and the Likudniks have now recycled the words with no less mockery. Ynet runs down where various countries stand with respcet to a potential UN vote recognizing Palestinian independence, with Israel trying to capture a "moral majority" of about 30 countries of the 193 UN member states.
BTW, still skeptical that the Palestinians will actually go the distance and seek a vote. Here's Abbas, once again saying he'll hold off if Israel returns to negotiations based on the '67 borders and stops settlement activity.
