31. What's worse than occupation is occupation and siege !
(05.21.07)
It is realy right that : "it was better during the occupation. I wish the Israelis would return."
32. An idea worthy of debate
JPS ,   Efrat   (05.21.07)
Despite the ascerbic talkbalks, Malki is echoing what others have said - it's an Arab problem to make order in their own back yard and maybe it's time for them to get started. Gaza is small, contained and containable. Between them, Jordan and Egypt could easily put 30 thousand or more troops in Gaza and exercise control of the streets. Then it would be house-to-house searches and disarmament of the militias. Two problems that immediately come to mind are 1) The Arab League doesn't seem to want to touch Gaza with a 10-foot-pole, and 2) even if this pipedream did happen, who the heck would run Gaza? Hamas whose policy is to reject peace with Israel would only want to re-arm, and Fatah is so corrupt it would be hard for them to come up with a list of capable leaders whose job was to lead and build, not line their own pockets and those of their cronies. Actually, same goes for Hamas. Hmmm... Arab occupation of Gaza, disarm the militants, and yes, they'd need a solid constitution to set the groundrules for new law and order in Gaza. Whoops... almost forgot that the Palestinians have had over 40 years and still haven't come up with a constitution. Sigh, sorry Malki, but doesn't look like this idea will work.
33. Have a better idea:
Uzziel   (05.21.07)
Send all the arab settlers of Aza to Egypt from where they come.
34. Riad Malki, you should be given a gold medal for............
Cameron ,   USA   (05.22.07)
a proposal of such crushing stupidity & of such a shaky grasp of reality that even a blind idiot could instantly guess it's origin from the Progressive/Arab mindset.
35. DUFUS MORONIKA AWARD GOES TO
Mark ,   Georgia, USA   (05.22.07)
anyone who agrees with this dangerous idea. Then the Pals continue to launch rockets under supervision of the Egyptian and Jordanian armies, Brillant simply brillant!! Or better yet more weapons can be smuggled in by the E & J armies. Or maybe rockets can be launched from E & J sites so Israel can be suckered into shooting at the E & J armies killing their soldiers so they can start a war with well equipped terrorists and E & J armies in Gaza ready to attack from the south. Silly idea by pollyannas and enemies of Israel. Submitted for your appoval Mark from Georgia
36. Must B neutral . All in Skimasks+all called Mohammed

41. Sending Arab 'troops' to Gaza!
Liam Hogan ,   London U.K.   (05.24.07)
Why bother sending Arab forces to 'Arab' areas when the UN 'peacekeepers' do the bidding of their terrorist beneficiaries anyway? Shalom, Sir.
