Answer

Your Maven is reading Java version as 1.6.0_65, Where as the pom.xml says the version is 1.7.

Try installing the required verison.

If already installed check your $JAVA_HOME environment variable, it should contain the path of Java JDK 7. If you dont find it, fix your environment variable.

also remove the lines

 <fork>true</fork>
     <executable>${JAVA_1_7_HOME}/bin/javac</executable>

from the pom.xml
