The Arabs should have never attacked Israel.
2. Who cares what they think
Shiloh ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.04.07)
Why do we listen to them. They have a country, Jordan! What's even worse is that the kablanim will use Arab labor instead of Jews. While Jews remain unemployed. What a sham!

10. #3 - Like Hamas did you any favors
Steve ,   UK   (12.04.07)
Not that you'd ever admit it, Ali, but I don't think your people want peace either. The Palestinians have never, to my knowledge, ever used the word "peace" in any meaningful discussion. All we hear is how much you want. "Give us this, give us that, stop doing this, stop doing that...or we'll continue to try blowing you up." THAT'S what I hear. Israel is for Jews and people who want to live there IN PEACE. Until Abbas or Hamas say "We'll stop the violence", nothing will ever happen to advance your State. Jerusalem is Israel, and as long as you keep waving your AK-47's in the air and sending your wanna-be martyrs over the wall, it'll STAY Israel. Look at Northern Ireland. One day the IRA said "Ok, we'll stop. Follow through." Britain did. Now Sinn Fein has legitimacy there, and part of the government. If your people want it here, grow a pair and call an end to it. Sure. That'll happen. And everyone loves a pork chop, don't they.
11. To Ali Baba
Tuvia Schertzman ,   Betar Ilit   (12.04.07)
Maybe it is time for you to leave Eretz Yisrael and have a nice life in the USA
12. #3 No Israel does not want peace
Joseph P. ,   Jerusalem   (12.04.07)
because there can NEVER be peace with Arabs. Arabs don't even understand what "peace" means. Their mentality just does not grasp it. We'll have to wait for Moshiach to take care of that. In the meantime, we have to continue developing and building OUR land and making sure our enemies are out of the way.
13. here is what I say
RobertK ,   Jerusalem   (12.04.07)
to the PA that wants to tell Jews where they can build and live in Jerusalem. Go STRAIGHT to hell.
14. The Palestinians and World wrong to trust Israel
Lev Bronstein ,   Moscow, Russia   (12.04.07)
The Israelis have no intention of keeping any of their obligations and have a track record of lying to prove it, so it will be the Words responsibility to force Israel to make peace. The move to build more illegal settlements in occupied East Jerusalem must be stopped by the US and World community or the Annapolis conference is doomed, and it will be Israel's who bears the blame for its failure. You cannot trust the word of an Israeli leader; their government is as corrupt as any the world has ever seen so you simply cannot trust the crooks word on anything. Peace will have to be imposed upon Israel as they are unwilling to stop their illegal and immoral campaign of ethnic cleansing as the Nazis were, so a military option may be required to remove them from the occupied land and enforce UNSCR 242 upon them.
15. We are sick of Israel buidling such settlements in west bank
Jeff ,   NJ   (12.04.07)
Enough Occupation, Israel is fooling us by using our money to build settlements in west bank, this is crap and GWB is crap
16. Is this is the Anapolis peace deal ... no way with you .
(12.04.07)
17. to 12
(12.04.07)
I agree 100% with you ... since when the occupiers looks for peace and since when the Jews lived in peace and since when anyone can trust Israel .... you are right guy , by the way the ost dabgerous enemies for Israel is Israel , like it came like it will go ... because you people you can not live in peace so you keep on digging your graves by your hands ... soon or later you will be all separeted again and most will go back to his original country when the life become hell in Israel ... the dreams the zionists came with to this land are falling one after one starting from the dream of the great Israel from the Nile till El Forat which it's map was drawed on the Kneset till the dream of safty Israel , you couldn't creat your great Israel because it was a sincefiction dream and you are not safty even till now ... and still more of your dreams will fall , insted of taking more lands you will give alot from the lands you stolen you want or you don't want and people like you will break their heads in the wall that time ..... keep on dreaming.
18. Peace/territorial compromise YES...building in Har Homa...
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (12.04.07)
also YES. One has nothing to do with the other. And Har Homa has nothing to do with Annapolis. Of course we want peace (Ali) but we also have rights in this country that we mean to enjoy. Building in Har Homa is one of them.
19. good...
nate ,   canada   (12.04.07)
finally something I can be proud of this government for.
20. CRAZY
AMERICAN ,   USA   (12.04.07)
I hope USA drops you. this is so nasty . you jews are really giving yourself a BAD name. USA WILL drop you. we cannot support such a hypocritical country that does not want peace.
21. Very good, but not enough
Gidi ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.04.07)
We should build in Jerusalem, we should build in Judea, in Samaria, and in the Golan more and more and more.
22. Arabs are applying racism and apartheid...
Alexander ,   Herzliya, Israel   (12.04.07)
...against Israel, condemning Israelis/Jews for building new homes and live new lives in Judea and Samaria, and the Arab criticism is based on the fact that Jews are Jews. If people have Jewish blood in their veins, they can obviously not live and settle where they want to, but Arabs obviously can. It is a clear indicator that the world and the Arabs are applying apartheid and racism, and not Israel.
23. The reason Pals have no say in anything.
Steve ,   UK   (12.04.07)
Should NOT be made. Harken back to 1967. Israel occupied the West Bank. But - who's land was it to begin with? Jordan. Jordan signed a peace treaty with Israel in 1994, and did not include that territory in the bargain. Meaning they're content to see Israel keep it. Therefore, is that if there were any dispute over the West Bank is between Israel and Jordan. Conclusion: Palestinians have ZERO rights to that land other than what Israel says they have. Don't like it? Talk to Jordan. They have Gaza. It's theirs. Deal with it. Don't like it? Talk to Egypt. It WAS theirs, remember? So any dispute over neighborhoods is a lot of hot air coming from people who only want conflict. War equals martyrdom, and they all seem to want to be martyrs, right?
24. I pray day and night for anotehr war with Hizbuallah
Sameh ,   Jordan   (12.04.07)
I wish another war between the zionists and Hizbuallah to teach you a better lesson. Because it seems you didnt learn from your first lesson.
25. # 12 Joseph P. , Jerusalem
Ahmad ,   Ramallah   (12.04.07)
YES ISRAEL NEVER WANTED PEACE, ISRAEL WANTS HIZBUALLAH TO TEACH YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE ANOTHER GOOD LESSON
26. NOW IS THE TIME FOR ONE STATE FOR TOW PEOPLE
Nemer ,   Tulkarem   (12.04.07)
now is the time for one state for two people.. please shift your fence to the Jordan valley, because we want to live in great democratic Israel. NO JEWISH STATE
27. 24 &25 wish harm to the Lebanese people
cool   (12.04.07)
In your hate for Israel you would sacrifice more Lebanese blood to "teach Israel a lesson". This is the mentality of hate and more over at the expense of innocent "beoble". You lost your land Sameh trying to destroy Israel. King Hussien made peace and the land belongs to Israel now. Quit your crying. Be a man and realize you got your asses whipped. Ahmed, lay down your guns and make peace. Your families left Israel because they did not want to get hurt in the Arab invasions. They walked and lost.
28. "undermining newly revived peace talks" ?
redmiike ,   tel aviv   (12.04.07)
I didn't know there had been any 'peace talks' ? I read about powerless people like Abbas offering hudnas whilst trying to get back into bed with Hamas. And I don't remember him offering anything else?! What did I miss? Mike
29. To nr 25 and 26
Alexander ,   Herzliya, Israel   (12.04.07)
It is obvious to me that you Arabs never wanted the land in the first place and that your thirst for war and blood only keeps your society in chains, poor, uneducated, uncivilized, barbaric and unlovely. If you would spend a fraction of the time you hate Jews, and instead move out from OUR land of Israel to your 20 Arab states, where you could develop yourselves, get jobs and ecucation, you might even have a life. It is clear to me that it is not about Israel's borders but about Israel's existence, because in your sick, evil and twisted minds, Jews and Christians are "dhimmi peoples". And your "peace" is the "peace of Saladin", meaning waiting until you are strong enough to strike and kill your enemy. In the meanwhile, you wait and claim you want peace. You can't fool us, you anti-Semitic Islamofascists, bent on world conquest. This land is ours and if you piss us off, we will expel all of you from Israel, Judea, Samaria and Gaza. Rabbi Lior is right: cleanse country of Arabs, because you don't want peace and you don't accept our existence, lives, independence and sovereignity. If you want a war, go ahead, but you will lose, and you will get destroyed. For your information, more Arabs died than Israelis last year in Lebanon War nr2 and it was Israel that flattened Lebanon's infrastructure to the ground and not vice versa and it was and still is Israel that can enter Lebanese and Syrian air space whenever Israel wants to.
30. WTF??? wasnt Annapolis a week ago?
papa jay   (12.04.07)
That was very short lived!! All that sweet talk, what happened? No one is bashing Olmert now on the talkbacks i see. When the government talks of peace, talkbacks want the government toppled. What changed from last week?
