John Kerry gave a farewell speech at the State Department in which he defended the Obama Administration’s abstention in a vote to condemn Jewish settlements. From Fox News<\/a>;<\/p>\n

During a farewell speech at the State Department, Kerry explained the U.N. decision in his most extensive terms yet. He said it was about preserving the two-state solution, which he called the only way to a \u201cjust and lasting peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat future is now in jeopardy,\u201d he warned. <\/p>\n

A U.S. abstention on the U.N. Security Council resolution calling Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem a violation of international law allowed the measure to pass Friday \u2013 and sent the already-turbulent relationship between the Obama and Netanyahu governments into its rockiest stretch yet. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’d remind Mr Kerry that the Palestinians had a shot at a two-state solution in 2000, the best shot they ever had, and they rejected it. They’ll never accept any solution that includes the continued existence of the State of Israel. <\/p>\n

But thanks for reminding us of the bullet we dodged in the 2004 election. And thanks for the opportunity to show this picture to my audience one last time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
