I feel sorry for Jonathan Pollard, he will not be released now. Liz

Israel cancels fourth prisoner release

Israel will not release the fourth batch of 26 prisoners it was to have released last Saturday night because of the Palestinian decision to apply for admission to 15 international treaties and conventions, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni told chief PLO negotiator Saeb Erekat.

Livni's comments came during a marathon, seven hour meeting with Erekat held overnight Wednesday in a frenetic US effort to save the faltering diplomatic process.

... until Kerry warns of "consequences." Then it's back on. If anything, this will buy the Israelis some time to prepare themselves, because it they do end up releasing those prisoners, my fear is that the Palestinians will immediately quit the peace talks and, may God forbid it, launch some kind of attack on Israel. They would have no other reason to continue the peace talks. Just my speculation.

Thanks for sharing this, though, Elizabeth.

Wait. Are we supposed to take "consequences" seriously now?
What is he going to do... place economic sanctions on 12 irrelevant Israeli businessmen?

I'll be interested to see where this leads.
Israel should have known better than to agree with the first three releases. This was never about peace, only about gaining what could be bled from the Israelis while time, and the peace process, permitted.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 "For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever."
