If Abbas is a man of peace, I have a bridge that goes from SF to Hawaii for sale. Any takers? He's doing the dance of Arafat to those who are blind. Arafat also was heralded (by Pres Clinton) as a man of Peace and received a Nobel Peace Prize (which was suppose to be returned, I thought). The inhabitants of what I call Arafatland/Hamassville do not want their own country. That has been made clear since the inception of over a decade ago. The disengagement from Gaza proved that when the buildings that were left (paid for by me and other American Jews) were destroyed as soon as the israelis left. How many rockets are being fired from there to Israel on a daily basis? If Israel goes ahead and creates a "state" for these terrorists - then Israel has lost for good. Bottom line: NO MORE APPEASING TERRORISTS AND THEIR PARTNERS!

the islamic terrorists, of course. you would think they would want to end the "occupation", but they do everything in the world to ensure it continues. but, then again, that is why they are terrorists.

Your own leftist government has caused more Israeli deaths than any American president ever has.

dont get jealous jews--- the Palestinians have sufferred enough.

another lie of arabs my grandmother come from Iraq after they took all her property and home, so those jews should have state there.?? liars..

Georgie better read Ezekiel? mmm seems like there's something in there about that.... And "No power on earth?? I think YHWH would have something to say about that.

Two states: Israel and Palestine. Everything else would be a disaster.

The enemies of Israel learned that they could not defeat Israel by war after five attempts. Now they have the help of President Bush and get chunks of Israel in stages without even having to fight this time. All for the lie of peace. There is no peace to be had with Islam. What the brain dead Jews can't see is their slow extermination under the lie of peace. The Road Map experiment has already proven another failure and yet the blind continue down this Road to hell. Many of us not under the delusion of the president know that Abbas in not a man of peace or a moderate . We know that Islam will never ret until ISRAEL is no more. And yet the blind Jews go along with the final solution agenda of a false ally.

While Mr. Bush was embracing a mass-murdering Muslim terrorist Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez called Bush the devil in the United Nations, no doubt for all the wrong reasons. Never the less, shame on President Bush. Shame on him! And shame on F.M. Livni and Mr. Olmert for enabling President Bush, not that he needs any encouragement to do evil. President Bush has distinguished himself as a Christian president who coddles Muslim terrorist murderers. He's little different from Jimmy Carter. I am ashamed of this man as an American citizen and a thirty five year registered Republican. Mr. Bush is a disgrace! Someone wrote earlier on this topic: "NO MORE APPEASING TERRORISTS AND THEIR PARTNERS!"

When you said, "the Palestinians have sufferred enough", what exactly did you mean? Who are "the Palestinians", it's interesting to know. If you are referring to the arabs who live in Judea and Samaria then my question is what is their sufferring all about? And why should they necessarily get what they demand? They say (at least in English) they want a state of their own. Fine. There is one, misnamed Jordan. What, they want another one? Well, let them carve a piece out of Jordan, this way they will have two, or as many "states" as they wish - Jordan is big enough for that, bigger than Israel. You are saying that the Palestinians have suffered enough. When I was a 4 year old kid I suffered too because my neighbor next door had toys I could only dream of. So let the "palestinians" suffer for as long as they remain greedy, murderous, suicidal and barbaric. There is room for them aplenty in the Middle East to live alongside their kind. But th problem is that they do not just hate the Jews, they also hate each other. That's why they treat each other the way not even animals do. So let them suffer, let them go at each other's throats.

God punishes those who devide the Land. Bush is a Christian, yet he seems to have missed this small detail in the Bible.

When in Lumumba University in Moscow, Abbas wrote a thesis basically denying that Holocaust ever had happened. Now this hoodlum is a champion of peace, according to a man who erased his own popularity as a president by insisting practically the opposite! Sometimes watching the these diplomatic rehearsals in public, gives you just creeps. It is easy to mr. Bush to push for the inevitable, because it will be Israel who is carrying the whole weight of consequences of whatever happens. It doesn't look good for Israel. The Indecisiveness of the West regarding Iran. The complete and utter hypocrisy regarding the Palestine Affair of both USA and Europe, and the unfortunate, suicidal mentality of the present Israeli government do not bode good. That the USA creeps in front of the Islamic world does not bother me. But the one carrying the consequences of this idiocy is going to be Israel. Not the States. The enemy doesn't even need to drop their 2 times ten kiloton but to drive it in a truck in public and that was that. When the canary is wasted, you can be sure the hypocrites will "wake up" and even the loonies will become so conscious about the Islamic threat that they would eventually drop a tear or two because of the wasted nation. Ok, this is rather depressing, and we all know that there is a lot more than just the two clowns needed for the things go so loomy. But cuddling publicly with the people who will forget every agreement done the moment they return home, isn't any of that.

You wrote "There is room for them aplenty in the Middle East to live alongside their kind." What are you saying here? That they are different beings from a different planet? The words "THEIR KIND" sounds to me as if these Humans are ALIENS. Next time, when you write such hatred, please use more couscous words, or better yet, go get an education. How would you like it if I referred to the JEWS as "YOUR KIND"? Thank you, enough said.

These Arab squatters should go back to the Arab countries they came dfrom. http://www.sullivan-county.com/id3/palestine.htm

ever hear of projectionism? well you are IT!!! talking about YOURSELF. and the PALESTINIANS ARE the PEOPLE THAT WERE LIVING IN THE AREA now called israel pre 1948== before the jews IMMIGRATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on USA AID$$$$

like base ball the bases were loaded and and the us president GEORGE W. BUSH hit a home run with the speech at the un and brought all the friend countries to home base!

As the Europeans are so keen on helping the Palestinians, perhaps the EU would give up some of its territory to serve as a Palestinian state. I'm surprised that after so many years this very interesting possibility has never been seriously discussed as a solution to the Palestinian problem.

As long as this idiot is in charge .. things will only get worse... The only thing is facist fanatic idiot Bush did is to spread more hatred in the world... hatred for the US.. Zionism and israel ... spreading of the idea of Confrontation between civilization ... Religous divisions, destruction of individual rights, masacres and bloodshed in the middle east from iraq to lebanon through "Constructive Chaos" and the "New Middle East"myth...takin gthe global economy to the verge of a crisis through the colossal increase in oil prices due to his stupid policies in iraq and the middle east .. etc etc etc ... Only solution is israel to give the legitimate rights to all palestenians .. removal of settlements .. ONE democratic state where christians, jews and muslims live as equals.... Otherwise this blood bath will go on for generations and i do not think time is on israels side !

As an active Republican I can smell when Bush is blowing smoke. He is desperately trying to placate the Arab despots that he considers 'moderate'. He no more believes that the setting up of another terror state is a viable idea, nor is it in the US best interests. He is merely playing for time. Even those on the far deluded left in Israel (and there are hoardes of them) must know by now that pieces of Jewish real estate will not mollify the jihadists. Unless Israel's leaders are willing to commit national suicide they are aware of these same undeniable facts.

Just wait soon they will really suffer.The last few govts did not give them the death and destruction they deserve. Our next govt will make them pay for all their terrorism.And you will not have bush around to lie for you. Let him push for a palestinian state in texas,it is big enough! abb-ass is a man of piss ,not peace.

US will support Israel that can defend herself. If you think that anyone will support the state run by such clowns as Olmert and Peretz, think again. This is pay back in the making - and it's going to get worse. Bush has already re-activated James Baker, who was Israel's worst night-mare in Bush Sr.'s administration. You are asleep with your wonderful leader at the helm and waiting for things get better? I don't think so.

No, I've never said that humans are aliens. But humans aren't the same, they are all different. That's why we have countries, that's why we use borders which are to be protected. Yes, Jews ARE my kind, so are americans, and so are people who might hold similar views to mine. What's so strange about it? And I do hate those who want to do me harm. Is it surprising? As for my education - don't worry about it. Better be concerned with yours.

You wrote: "and the PALESTINIANS ARE the PEOPLE THAT WERE LIVING IN THE AREA now called israel pre 1948== before the jews IMMIGRATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on USA AID$$$$ " Please tell this nonsense to "Pravda" paper. They love such stuff.

I think he meant those kind as the ones that wish death or harm upon Israel. You dont live in the middle east so until you live there and experience the cultures, then one has to relax his thoughts. One should consider how America would react if it had rockets shot into its sovereign territory and suicide bombers in its midst. And if many called for death of the country. Just a thought.

when Jews basically inhabited most of modern day Israel and the entirety of the west bank. There were no palestinians at that time. Phillistines of course. Palestinians can likely claim many connections to the country of Jordan. Hope that helps you out.

the cleansing of Bethlehem and jericho like we have seen by the restrictive policies of the palestinian authority.

Pursuit of failure can happen deliberately or without a good understanding of the eventual outcome. You may not think repressive Islamic fundamentalism is a dysfunctional way to live, but I do. National success IS largely a matter of culture. How else do you account for the prosperity of the UK, US, Germany, Japan, Australia, France, Sweden, etc. while those nations that don't recognize personal liberties achieve nothing but persistent failure? It's not a coincidence. The Palestinians have been played as pawns by Arab and Israeli radicals bent on warfare and strife. There are Israeli who wish for Palestinians to have their nation and Palestinians who recognize Israel's right to exist. Unfortunately, guess who is holding the guns. The poor and improperly edcuated mulsims of these nations are decieved into believing that they should die for their land, their religion and Allah. Arafat invited terrorism from my perspective, and he won the noble peace prize. Even when Regan established the zero tolerance for caving into terrrorism, Arafat still maintained his deception and the world focus on Palastine is nothing more than a prep table for Armageddon. With regard to land and non-Palestinians, keep in mind that Gaza, the West Bank and the Bekaa valley were apportioned to the Arabs native to that area (Palestinians). In the 1948-9 war, Jewish territoties were expanded slightly, but all the Palestinian territories were taken by Israel's neighbors. Pardon the redundancy, but the PLO came to be in order to get these lands from the hands of these countries. Those occupying countries did not give a damn about Palestinian sovereignty until after the 1967 war.

I applaud New Yorkers distinction of different classes of humans, obviously there is, or we wouldn't hear statements of convert or die. Wouldn't you agree. In an article describing Bush's push for two states and peace between two different peoples, (are you offended by the statement people's, is that couscous enough?) The only comment you can come up with is a description of a classification of different ethnic people. You preach about education? I'm a Canadian, surrounded by likeminded people, of religion and race, otherwise known as my kind. Please don't compare myself or my forefathers to these barbaric, uncompromising, lying, hypocritical, crybaby, need more aid so they can build bombs to attack you, can draw cartoons about the holocaust, insult every religion, but don't say a peep about theirs kind of people. Enough said. Loser!!!

So what your trying to say is that no Jews lived on that land before 1948. The US just put them all on a boat and said, "Here you go, welcome to your new home". With you and Ron, if I were American I would definately be writing my minister of education, asking what the hell is wrong with this statement.

I appreciate your talkback. But no, I meant the present. Just like the Jews once inhabited Hebron but whose presence was basically annihilated by the muslims who no doubt thereby expressed their love and respect for their neighbors. And you know what - I hate their kind. And I hate the sheepish stupid masses who burn, loot and otherwise profess their peaceful intentions. I know I'm not one of them and never will be and I don't want to live in their midst and call them "my kind".
