Kerry: This moment critical for Israel, region

In remarks made before his meeting with President Shimon Peres on Thursday evening, US Secretary of State John Kerry said that he is "convinced... that this moment is a really critical one for the region and particularly for Israel, for Palestine, for Jordan."
Kerry stated in a press release prior to the meeting that peace was a matter of choice, but Israelis do not wake up every morning and wander about it, because there is already "a sense of security and a sense of accomplishment and a sense of prosperity."
Addressing Peres personally, Kerry is planned to tell him that he is "the world’s great statesmen," and a "treasure for Israel."
