31. #22 - Are you kidding me?
Mark ,   USA   (08.14.07)
You claim that if Israel disappears that a new state will be born where Jews, Christians and Muslims can live in peace together. That state already exists. It's called Israel. Jews were tossed out of Lebanon (let's talk about refugees) and the Muslims and Christians don't live in peace. How about the Muslims chasing the Christians from Bethlehem. What about Saudi Arabia's lack of tolerance to Jews and Christians. You live under great delusion. Israel is not the problem. Israel is the answer. All religions exist there protected by law. Wake up from your sleep you fool.
32. A country committing SUCIDE!!!

33. So you would just sit around, Mr. Breiman
GUH ,   Russia   (08.14.07)
While your people are ruthlessly colonized, expelled, kidnapped and even murdered? Good. Don't be a Palestinian- your logic is rubbish and is not needed by other Palestinians (or Israelis for that matter).
34. Back off Ron
Alberto ,   Italy   (08.14.07)
These cynical remarks show only one thing: an utter and complete misunderstanding of the real forces from both sides which call for a just and durable peace in the region . The writer is nothing more than a war monger who doesn't even deserve to live on this sacred and holy land.
35. There ain't no such thing!!
Chaya ,   Bat Yam, Israel   (08.14.07)
It is a made up identity! There never has been such a people in history!
36. To Simon #15. Appreciation Like The One We Are Receiving.
Maansingh ,   The Netherlands   (08.15.07)
You write :".. give them (i.e. the Arabs) something .. (and you'll get) Peace ..". WELL, all the Jews left Gaza Strip in 2005. WHAT did we, and do we, receive from the Gazans as an appreciation ? Peace ? FAR from that. Israel received, and continues to receive, Kassam rockets as a thank you. So Simon, we don't want ANOTHER appreciation like the one we are already receiving from the Gazans. This "give them something and you"ll get Peace" has PROVEN to be 'a pie in the sky'.
37. #35 - Of course here comes Chaya....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (08.15.07)
and her predictable made-for-Ynet brainless drivel that Palestinians don't exist.....Leave Bat Yam sometime Chaya, or even look beyond your own window and see that there are millions of these made up people.
38. Never mind about, if you were a Palestinian
Marlene N ,   New York City   (08.15.07)
Better, if you were a decent Jew Mr. Breiman, you would remember how Jews were once stripped of their dignity and freedom, and the oppression they lived under. If you were a decent Jew, you would remember the vile racist society that led the way to such horrors, and now you follow in the same footsteps. If you were a decent Jew Mr. Breiman, you would condemn your country for what it has done to the Palestinians since 1948, and better that you would rise up and say "WE ARE ALL PALESTINIANS", however, you have lost your humanity, or perhaps never had it.
39. Chaya is suffering from...........
Marlene N. ,   New York City   (08.15.07)
"Palestinian Denial"
40. righteous palestinian
zichron   (08.15.07)
if i were a palestinian i would say why in the hell did not we allow the jews from europe to escape into a one tenth part of palestine as a temporary refuge. Most were against a jewish state anyway before the messianic time. We would have been the noblest people on earth an honor to ibrahim . Instead we murdered and tortured to blackmail britain into blocking the escape. So now we are in gaza spared alive . .
41. Whereas Marlene N is suffering from plain old ignorance!
martyrmaker ,   Milan, Italy   (08.15.07)
None of the Arabs you call 'Palestinians' would have defined themselves in that way before 40 years ago, and if you don't agree it means you've never read a history book in your whole life.
42. #33 - l remember your posts for other articles, and...
Hamburger ,   you know where   (08.15.07)
...and apparently you're nothing but a typical Russian antesemite. So why don't you spare your own time posting talkbacks in an lsraeli newspaper, and, more importantly, spare us all from your presence. After some more trains and buildings are blown up in Russia and maybe you'll start thinking differently - then we'll talk. Until then - nobody here gives a flying f@#k about what you think.
43. #42
GUH ,   Russia   (08.15.07)
Your rage is pathetic. There are so-called anti-semites all over the world because of what your state has done. I am never motivated by hatred and respect the Jewish people, but Zionists are taking over the world. And Russia is not as meddlesome as the US and other countries so don't expect a terror campaign.
44. to #31 I am a christian palestinian and fear only israel
MOhamed   (08.16.07)
what you are stating is pure propaganda to portray the muslims as all being extremists....\my only hope is to be free and feel like a 1st class citizen in my own country not like a 4th class ( in between you can find the sepharad and the ethopians hews)
45. #43
Hamburger   (08.16.07)
You use phrases like "Zionists are taking over the world", and you claim not to be antisemitic?? Russia, according to you, "is not meddlesome". Is that why they reinstalled navy bases in Syria in order to "persue their interests in the region", in their own words? You are rediculous.
46. House divided...
Berel Israel Scheib ,   Portland,Oregon, USA   (11.27.07)
America's Presdent Abraham Lincoln said: A house divided cannot stand. This is Eretz Israel today. My late cousin Israel Eldat in his book The Jewish Revolution says why Eretz Israel exists. If Cousin Israel could see what has become of his land he would turn over...! We seem to be, as in our past...our own enemies. But, because we have also been "a light unto the world..." Judiasm will not die! We should not put our trust in these "people" whether they seem to be religously inclined or "secular"..but to read, each day, Aleinu le shebehach... One day, Jews, Christians, and Mulslims will believe that prayer!
