1. Oh, Yuppi-doo... Peres running for President
Esther ,   Ofarim, Israel   (05.30.07)
I can hardly contain my excitement. I guess the only way to get him out of our sight is when they pry his cold, dead body out of his Knesset seat. Shouldn't he be staying home with his ailing wife?
2. Peres - HaAtzitz HaMedina!
BigE ,   Israel   (05.30.07)
3. Havent you done enough damage already Peres?
freejay ,   Israel   (05.30.07)
4. as long as no power is given to him, I say yes...
(05.30.07)
He's been humilated so many times I feel bad for him.
5. Peres
Gil ,   UK   (05.30.07)
In the name of my saba who built the land of israel, my family members who fought in the army, fed the country through their work in the kibbutziim, brought academic respect to Israel from their achievements and to the art that they have promoted and produced - vote for Peres.
6. If he really wants to serve the nation. . .
The Perescope ,   Ramat Aviv, Israel   (05.30.07)
he should admit that his Oslo Accords were a mistake, ask us for forgiveness, resign in shame, and live out his years with in Sederot to show solidarity with the town's bombarded residents.
7. Retirement the best contribution Peres can make to Israel
David   (05.30.07)
We have had enough of his contributions with disastrous results. If he really likes Israel more than his blind ambission he should retire and grow flowers.
8. "my last contribution to the State" Is That a Promise?
Greenblatt ,   Miami USA   (05.30.07)
"my last contribution to the State" If he swears he means it, vote for him!
9. GIVE HIM THAT CHAIR, PLEASE !
Atilla Karagözoğlu ,   King of ISRAEL   (05.30.07)
Hey He is an old man. He is part of Israel's near History. AT LEAST HE CANT RAPE ! *** Lets be serious.Your King loves women. But, He never thinks rape woman even in His dreams. But, I would love to have at least 30-40 wives. Hey, normal marriageship. I treat them nice :) *** WHY WE ARE SO HUNGRY ABOUT WOMAN ? why ? Somethimes I make sins. after one day of every sins, I would love to have another sins. am I bad ? Note: before response me !!! remember I am your King :)
10. So much for sitting back and taking care of a sick wife...
YMBMY ,   Modiin   (05.30.07)
...Shmon - doesn't your wife need your help in her recovery? ...and another Ynet columnist claims religious men are chauvinists ?!- Shmon Peres defines chauvinism He must be the most self-centered politician Israel has known (although the Ehud's and Peretz may end up giving him a run for his money). Shimon - at the citizens expense, you were given a semi-retirement 80th birthday party. No other Israeli politician ever received such a treatment. Time to hang it up. (and I won't even get into how many people were killed as a result of your Oslo experiment.)
11. #6 Has It Right.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (05.30.07)
If the position were elective, he would not win. His ego will not allow him to admit his past disasterous mistakes with Oslo & so he continues to spout the same failed ideas that have brought us to the current mess. He does not deserve public office.
12. One Loser (Olmert) Throwing praise on another Loser (Peres)
Norman   (05.30.07)
13. O well give him the Chair but with one hard condition
ben ,   singapore   (05.30.07)
- only ceremonial duty, NOTHING ELSE ! : - )0~
14. OLMERT ENDORCED HIM, THNE CERTAINLY *DO NOT VOTE FOR HIM
..............DACON9   (05.30.07)
15. peres, go home and enjoy your retirement!
gadi ,   idf   (05.30.07)
you dont fit for the job, you're too weak! ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
16. Simple Simon says
Shimmon ,   Tzfat   (05.30.07)
Drop your pants and turn your rear toward the Arabs and we can achieve brotherly love. He can't wait for the parade to show you his love. But to tell you the truth he's been showing you his love for years. You just don't know when youve been had idiots
17. Peres
Yoda ,   HereWeIs   (05.30.07)
Can't he just go silently into the night? Aw allright -Give him the chair. Pull the hood slowly over his head and flip the switch. A government of clowns is what we have, we do.
18. Just when you thought....
Debbie ,   Toronto   (05.30.07)
things could not get worse in Israeli politics. it just does.
19. THERE IS NO BIGGER FOOL THAN AN OLD FOOL LIKE PERES
Sid Emess   (05.30.07)
20. Is this some sort of joke?
Joseph Kaufman ,   Sunnyvale/Jerusalem   (05.30.07)
What if some obscure rival wins the presidential elections? Shimon, it's already happened. And despite the great things you've done, lots of folks have serious issues with some of your recommendations, that appear to have backfired and endangered the future of Israel. I'm sorry that we have no heros any more. You've done your best, but your vision didn't get traction.
21. Peres
sad ,   israel   (05.30.07)
and i thought that his days were over. i certainly do not want a senior citizen in the house of the president.
22. peres
joe ,   israel   (05.30.07)
i hope that he maintains his tradition and LOSES.
23. The headline should be... Shimon Peres Recognizes Hashem!!!
dovid ,   Jersusalem, Israel   (05.30.07)
The headline should be... Shimon Peres Recognizes Hashem!!! (could this be the first time?) It's to late your Oslo plan has caused the death of hundreds of Jews and have caused hardship of many 100's of thousands of Jews. Oslo has failed therefore you have FAILED. You should go home and be with your wife and ask Hashem for forgiveness. On your way out take Olmert, Tzipi Livni and the others kadima & labor fools. GO HOME!!!
24. Clinton must be jumping up and down for joy at this.
