Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the nation Tuesday in a New Year’s greeting that there was no guarantee negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians would succeed, but vowed to aim for a peace agreement by the end of the year.

“This year, after many efforts, direct talks with the Palestinians have begun,” the prime minister said, in a video circulated by his bureau ahead of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. “This is an important step in our attempt to advance a peace agreement between us and them.”

“I say this is an attempt, because it is not certain that it will succeed. Certainly there are many obstacles, many skeptics and many reasons to doubt, but we must try to reach peace,” he said.

I applaud Bibi for his determination to reach an acceptable peace with the PA. The Jews must never underestimate the challenges they face. The ‘muslim’ frame of mind that there must be no Jewish state WILL NOT change.Hatred for Jews will continue and wILL increase in the West whatever Israel does. But mark the words of God: “whoever blesses Israel will be blessed and whoever curses Israel will bring curses upon themselves”. Peace with the PA? No. it is not now or in the near future. Bibi, please keep trying, BUT NEVER let down the guard in your determination to defend Israel. NEVER!
