U.S. Peace Envoy: There's "No International Consensus" on Mideast Conflict

(Times of Israel) Eric Cortellessa - In a podcast interview released Friday, U.S. envoy for Middle East peace Jason Greenblatt told the outgoing head of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations Malcolm Hoenlein: "There is no international consensus on this [Israeli-Palestinian] conflict. People reflexively try to pretend that an international consensus exists as to how to resolve the conflict. That's not true." "In fact, we couldn't even get an international consensus to condemn Hamas. Hamas is a terror organization that subjugates 2 million Palestinians in Gaza, vows to destroy Israel, shoots thousands of rockets at Israel. If there's no international consensus on that, there's no international consensus on a resolution here."
