Look on the bright side of hosting this conference. This could be an excellent opportunity for Spain to give back its territory to its rightful owners, the Muslims and the Jews. I hope they have been taking good care of my house in Valencia for the past 500 years.

Halutz is a man tired of the situation, much like the rest of us in this world… and I give him a lot of credit for having first hand experience and for standing steadfast in the face of liberal leftwing pressures… but I digress. Barghouti is trying to say that more kidnappings will come if he isn’t released. Justice should be blind, it should not discriminate, but it by no means should justice be disabled… but I digress. The question I’d like to pose is, why is it so hard for the world to understand that liberation and freedom is not akin to terrorism. A quote I heard from an American friend of mine can sum this up the best: “fighting for peace is like f*cking for virginity” And so, what exactly is terror fighting for. They’ll argue they are fighting for peace; but I dare them to point out how productive that has been. Look at the Lebanon war. The winner of this battle does not concern me, what concerns me is that Hezbo added nothing to Lebanon (in fact the war lapsed it back two decades). Iran lost a strong hold in the south, and Israel will walk away a stronger army from this experience. Hamas’s victory in the pali government was donned as a victory for terrorism, their acts were so wildly supported by the palis that hamas became a political institution. But, again, is that a victory, terrorism only brings more pain to the palis. Hamas only brought with it more hunger and strife. Palis as a nation have given up, they have instead thrown their support behind terror organizations that display themselves as saviors and martyrs. Religion is not the obstacle. Religion is just a tradition and a belief in god. Palis, by giving up and failing to establish themselves as a nation, have given up the most sacred god given right… the right to self preservation. They die for hamas, not for territory. Remember this, without Isreal, there is no need for terror. Without terror there is no need for Hamas. If Isreal goes and Hamas stays, there will need to be another target, another problem… Hamas will need to justify the terror. Without terror people will start thinking about democracy, food, jobs, education, public services. If people start to think this way, Islam will force them to back track. Terror has hijacked Islam and it uses Islam to take people back to the dark ages. Back to cave dwelling and farming. WHY? So that terror organizations in power today can continue to prosper. The funny thing is that terror has learned about this god given right called ‘self preservation’ and like a virus it requires its host to die. Today this host is the Palestinian peoples… tomorrow this host will be the world. Kill the virus…

Right, because we all see just how well the Oslo accords have turned out!

Take care of ETA. Then, maybe, you can start solving everyone else's problems.

Mr. Moratinos seems to blatantly ignore the fact that the Oslo Accords were based on the assumption that the Palestinians want their own state more than the destruction of the Jewish State. They were given plenty of chances to prove this, but failed and actually regressed every time. Now they elected a new, terrorist government, by a large majority, and express overwhelming support for terrorism as legitimate means to fight Israel (according to the Palestinian poles). With this reality, what makes Moratinos or any other European appeaser think that returning to the failed "peace process" will work? These people live in a thick bubble. I still wonder if it will ever burst.

Moratinos FM,along with Zapatero,PM are true anti-Israelmongers,pro-arabs proselytes. It should be a big mistake to come to Spain.

Instead of the consensus plan; Oslo/Roadmap/Geneva etc.

NOBODY CAN FOLLOW WHAT YOU PEOPLE ARE WRITING IF IT IS LONGER THAN A FEW LINES. THESE ARE TALKBACKS NOT A DISCUSSION FORUM.

The Jordan/Israel peace treaty was a success!!
