No, He is a professional moron-He is a gift for Arabs who fails to benefit from this gift. But his policy toward golan is not as netenyahu described but quite adept. Olmert tries to split Syria from Iran, because planning to strike Iran and during a crisis with Iran Olmert wants a neutralized Syria toward Israel, that is Israel will strike Iran, Syria will watch and wont observe its agreements with Iran regarding their joint defedence policy. Olmer thinks they can re-occupy and get golan heights later whenever Israel find better conjoncture. But Uncalculated dynamics will work and plans will fail. However 1. Syria is in wrong direction seeking peace with Israel, 2. Turkey paving the way for terrible economic and political backlash due to Israeli strike on Iran You may make peace only as long as you make war with Israel and overpower and force to subdue it!

Ah Mr Netanyahu, If only I could believe that you had learned the hard lesson that you are not always right and that you made some major mistakes - quite apart from the fact that I believe that Mr Olmert is doing a good job the main thing that keeps me supporting him is that otherwise we may get YOU again!!!

You are acting like an amateur too!

Netanyahu is right about keeping the Golan. It is part of Ancient Israel which Israel liberated from the occupier in 1967. The Leftists are living in fantasyland thinking that they can make peace with Islamist-Jihadists. The fact is the 'peace' of Islamist-Jihadists is the destruction of Israel. Israel must not be fooled by their deceptions! Former Professor of Quranic Interpretations at Al Azhar University, Omar Abdel Rahman, points out that "there is a whole surah [Chapter] called 'Spoils of War.' There is no surah called 'Peace.' Jihad and killing are the head of Islam. If you take them out, you cut off the head of Islam." (p.24, "Islam and Terrorism" [2002] by Mark A. Gabriel, PhD). The Leftists are now gasping for thin air on this issue. The fact is compromising Israel's national security interests is treason.

that peace between the Arabs and the Israelis is possible is a fool. If peace were possible we would have it by now. Dellusions of grandour is all that is between the ears of those who think they are capable of making peace with the Arabs.

Olmert makes an amuter look like Albert Einstein. He is an idiot who is more concerned with what arabs and his ego want than what Israelis want or whats actually good for the country not just whats going to help him get nobel prizes and personal glory. He is also so corupt and not interested in anything but his own power and glory he makes Arafat look like a man you could trust with your money and your security.

Why during his tenure as prime minister would Bibi agree that returning Golan in exchange for peace was a good deal, but now out of government and power it is not? In fact in the mid-90*s peace with Syria had far less importance by issues of the day than it has today. Perhaps had Rabin or Netanyahu or Barak actually closed the deal Israel might not now be facing Iran in Gaza, Lebanon or Syria; Iran would not be threatening Israel and the Gulf oil producers by developing nuclear weapons. Perhaps... But the point today is that Israel must do all in her power to contain the Iranian juggernaut, and achieving a negotiated peace with Syria would remove the front line with the Islamic Republic hundreds of miles east, close land routes through Syria in case of war. When the alternative to negotiating the isolation of Iran with Syria is an Israeli air-ground assault to, at best, delay the Iranian bomb, accepting the obvious Iranian missile retaliation with untold Israeli civilian casualties, its hard to fathom Bibi*s position short of political posturing. Because if the Olmert Government does achieve the removal of Iran through peace with Syria the Lebanon debacle would be all but forgiven, and both Barak and Netanyahu would remain in the wilderness. Make up your mind, Bibi, is your priority personal advancement and return as prime minister, or is it the security of Israel?

reserved for himself the right to be smarter today than yesterday. Giving up Sinai, Gaza, the Golan and part of Jerusalem will bring the Lord's judgment on the nations that coerced Israel into such agreements. Messianic Rabbi Edward Chumney thinks the Day of the Lord which is a thousand years in which the Messiah will come to rule the earth as King over the reunited House of Jacob and that begins as a thief in the night so few are aware it has begun...he believes it may have begun with the evacuation of Gaza. Herb Peters prophecy website studies think the Day of the Lord began in January 2007 when the Resolution 666 was confirmed for seven years by the New ENPI. The beginning of the Day of the Lord is very destructive, especially for the nations that afflict Israel.

Tayfun stop talking nonsense moron,Syria sheltered Ocalan for almost two decades and supplied PKK with weapons and money. Not just Syria but also Iran,Arafat,Lebanon,all of them supported PKK against Turkey. Kansız şerefsiz,are you supporter of PKK??????

they both are the same - 2 BIG ZEROS.

Olmert might be all sorts of things but when he is right he is right. Bibi forgets while others remember the awful days of his premiership. There were scandals, there was corruption and there was the Wye Plantation Agreement where Bibi Netanyahu gave up the real heart of Judaism - Hebron. To set the record straight I am not a religious nut but a totally secular one but I do know my history and Hebron is the final resting place of our Fathers and Mothers. So David founded Jerusalem but Abraham WAS the first Jew. Actually, the Likud gave up more than anyone else. Begin gave back Sinai and they channeled the funds for the development of the Galilee and the Golan to Judea and Samaria. There aren't enough hospitals in the Galilee and the good people of the Golan have to travel for hours to get cancer treatment or an MRI in Haifa or, in some cases, Tel Aviv. There is no train service until you reach the coast at Akko or Naharia. So Bibi, stop crowing about the Golan because you did nothing to develop it or the Galilee!
