US PRESIDENT REFERS TO ISRAEL’S “OCCUPATION” OF THE LAND ISRAELI PRESIDENT CALLS THE WORLD TO FACE THEIR SHAME

On Wednesday, September 23rd President Obama in a speech to the UN General Assembly referred to Israel’s “occupation” of the land that God gave to Israel in 1272 BC, and which it has possessed, not occupied, in the 3300 years since. The President thus became the first US President to use a word long favored by Palestinians and Muslims.
