1. Sharon
Abber ,   Israel   (08.21.05)
One can only hope after all this - that the only GOOD thing will be that Sharon will be defeated!!!
2. Want to bet on that?
Avi ,   Jerusalem   (08.21.05)
The country will not allow it, and the minority who supports it wouldn't be able to carry it out. The next expulsion will be our Arab enemies who live in Israel's midst and are thorns in our eyes. The majority will support it, and the IDF WILL be able to carry it out. Plocker lives in a dream world.
3. and then SETTLER SEVER PLOCKER time will come !!!
amir   (08.21.05)
Soon, the "innocent Jew", Sever Plocker, a SETTLER from the Jewish settlement of North Tel Aviv will soon also be transfered by the same buldozers he wishes on Judea & Samaria. The illusion and dream of leftist idiot Jews living inside a so called "green line" and not being called "settlers" is coming to an end. If Gush Katif is an illegal settlement, soon Gush Dan will also become one. And Mr. Sever Plocker and the wonderful "innocent" kind soul Jews from all over Israel will be next on the chopping block.
4. Jordan Valley
David ,   Israel   (08.21.05)
What about the Jordan Valley: 1 - almost uninhabited by Arabs (other than Jericho) 2 - vital to the security of the State (psychologically as well as physically) even in today's hi-tech missile world 3 - important water source 4 - part of historical Samria / Judea Why should this have to be "returned" to the Arabs?
5. Plocker really wants civil war
Dani ,   Tel Aviv   (08.21.05)
What he doesn't realize is that the nation doesn't. He smells Jewish blood and like a shark, is getting into a feeding frenzy. His appetite won't be satisfied. He will be disappointed- for the sake of the nation.
6. Naive
Ben Plonie ,   USA   (08.21.05)
Why don't you get that ALL OF ISRAEL is under dispute. After '67 comes '48. after '48 comes '19? After '19 comes 1882. Look at a map. Israel is a tiny Jewish community, dotting a sea of hostile Arabs. Because five minutes after the Palestinian State, they will decalsre an alliance with Jordan or Syria and sudeenly become just Arabs, as the artificial Palestinian identity is unsustainable, it has no context, no history, no content except anti Jew/Israeli/Zionist. Unfortuantely, you just became an post-Zionist. Israel has a half a percent of the region's land mass for five percent of its population. Will reducing it to a quarter percent solve things? By dismantling 'settlements' (neighborhoods) you are shooting yourselves in the foot. You are sawing off the branch on which you sit. Not just the religious land but the religious ideology provides your buffer zone. because if you guys have no right except historic and moral, then you are indeed subject to historical and military forces, and are as the Arabs say a foreign alien culture with no right to change the stinking regional culture they prefer.
7. How much longer
mm   (08.21.05)
will we have to suffer these stupid self hating lefties. You don't want Israel to exist don't ruin it for others. Donate your money to Hamas and go live in Jordan or Saudi Arabia. And leave the people with something more than eventual self-destuction to continue building a country that is meant for the preservation and florishment of the Jewish people. The majority do not want to be a sitting duck for arab terrorists.
8. Sharon
Arnold Mars ,   Statesville,USA   (08.21.05)
What do you think will be the long range scenario without Sharon?
9. withdrawal
robert gaber ,   san bruno california   (08.22.05)
the tragedy is 8000 Jews are called occupiers for living in Gaza. There are a million Arabs living in Israel.....should they be expelled? they should under the logic of this brutal disengagement. Aren't they "occupiers"? What does Israel get in return for this grand gesture? Not much, unless you consider the Arabs bringing their weapons that much closer to the Israeli homeland. Appeasement and concessions are not the surest means of finding peace with sworn enemies and violent terrorists. While I understand the strategic intent of these withdrawals, I am very skeptical of the outcome. Thanks
10. BE SHAME OF YOURSELF
(08.22.05)
Polker you should be shame of yourself YOU are an anti -zionist YOU should be putten in jail
11. Much Ado About Nothing
David ,   Petah Tikva, Israel   (08.22.05)
He-he, all this brouhaha is about that somebody looking at the current process has told that Sharon, who in fact has nothing in common with the so called “National Camp”, is not going to keep his promise (as it is usual with him), but instead will continue to fall back from densely Arabs-populated territories. Which Israel cannot annex just because they are about 2.4M on the West Bank (with 1.5M in Gaza and 1.5M inside Israel) against 5.5M Jews. No, it seems like eventually we’re not going to build death camps for them. Same goes for forceful deportation. And they showed that they’re not going to leave by themselves. And miracle which could eliminate them had not happened in Gaza Strip. So, it’s given that they are going to stay. So, I’d like to make a proposition for my fellow American self conscious Jews which are … eccentric enough to come to Israel: let’s us exchange places! You go here – which is easy – to participate in the Great Zionist Project and all this stuff, and we go take your place – which is harder, but we’ll find the way, considering your outspoken influence in your current democratic country. BTW, this anonymous “YOU are an anti –zionist, YOU should be putten in jail” was the best and funniest – you ppl just made my day.
12. Eating Jewish Souls, Don't get acid indigestion
(08.22.05)
80,000 will be much harder than 9k
13. Hopefully
Rachel ,   Jerusalem   (08.22.05)
Please G-d this should happen. I have nightmares about a bi-national state. I also have nightmares about a Palestinian state but the binational one is worse. One of the disadvantages of actually living here and not in the US is you are the ones that actually have to deal with the situation.
14. Arabs don't care
Eric ,   Bet Shemesh, Israel   (08.22.05)
The Arabs want us gone, whether we are in Tel Aviv, Eli, Ofra, Emmanuel etc... If that's the case, we might as well stay put. Leaving those places will not make the arabs like us more.
15. 10 LEARN ENGLISH AND JUDAISM
(08.22.05)
16. I am confused?
Gedaliah   (08.22.05)
If you say what I think you are saying, aside from that you have a deep resentment for your own people, is that 80,000 people are next? I am sorry, you must have been on your boat in the sea on vacation with the rest of your world that existes within the city borders of tel aviv to see that the governemt sent in most of the police and much more army to kick only 8000 jews out of their home. About 80 percent of all police were assigned to disangagement duty. Didn't you notice you didnt get a ticket when you parked illegally right outside that brothel? Good luck pal, and by the way go visit the kotel now and see if the settlement movement is dying? Your head is so deap in the sand to see the truth. What are you more scared of the demographics of the arabs or the religious. Did you know that this past year was the first year in the history of Israel that there were more religious children in first grade then non religious? Wake up and embrace your people, don't push them away you will only be left by yourself.
17. GO TO HELL

18. Correction from Gaza
Salameh ,   Gaza   (08.23.05)
"after the 8,000 Gaza evacuees will come 80,000 more from Judea and Samaria." Dear Adon Plocker, you have two mistakes in the above article, which are: 1. after the 8,000 Gaza evacuees will come 180,000 more" 2. That piece of land is neitherJudea nor Samaria, this is the WEST BANK, the northern part of the Palestinian Homeland. Thank you PS I just can read the hatred-infested kahanists writing come nonesense here, but answering them is nonesense by itself.
