Press Statement
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Secretary of State
Washington, DC
January 9, 2011
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are very concerned about the initiation of demolition of the Shepherd's Hotel in East Jerusalem. This disturbing development undermines peace efforts to achieve the two state-solution. In particular, this move contradicts the logic of a reasonable and necessary agreement between the parties on the status of Jerusalem. We believe that through good faith negotiations, the parties should mutually agree on an outcome that realizes the aspirations of both parties for Jerusalem, and safeguards its status for people around the world. Ultimately, the lack of a resolution to this conflict harms Israel, harms the Palestinians, and harms the U.S. and the international community. We will continue to press ahead with the parties to resolve the core issues, including Jerusalem, in the context of a peace agreement.

I find it very strange that you choose as your alias the name of an American magazine which is pro-Tea Party and Sarah Palin. Poor choice from your POV
