Biden Israel visit clouded by settlement issue

1. Although America has been known for their nice relationship with the Israeli Government. When Vice President Joe Biden travelled to Israel there was quite a disagreement when it came to a Settlement issue. The Israeli Prime Minister was starting the settlement of 1,600 new homes for Jews in the Eastern side of Israel which also happens to be an area that the Palestinians consider to be Holy Ground. Biden believed that there is no need to make a reason for the Palestinians to become more angry.
2. I agree with Vice president Joe Biden in believing it is a bad idea to settle the Houses in this area. Whether or not they agree with The Palestinians on whether that area is Holy Ground or not; there is a level or respect that should be regarded as not to stomp on anyones toes. Especially when the relationship between the two is already at a boiling point.
