“I do not believe, nor have I ever stated, publicly or privately, that Israel is an apartheid state or that it intends to become one. If I could rewind the tape, I would have chosen a different word to describe my firm belief that the only way [to have] a Jewish state and two nations and two peoples living side by side in peace and security is through a two-state solution.”

“I will not allow my commitment to Israel to be questioned by anyone.”  (US Secretary of State John Kerry in a statement 28/04/2014)
