10 Talkbacks for this article
1. Peace partners with pipe bombs
Tony ,   New York, NY   (10.25.08)
Condi Rice wants these checkpoints opened so these “peace partners” (terrorists) can kill more Jews. Land for peace is a great idea but Israel has it backwards. You don’t give land for peace you take it and remove the trouble makers. Otherwise there will never be peace.
2. No ! to peace at any price.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (10.25.08)
To cry peace, peace, when there is no peace, as the Jewish prophet, Jeremiah, taught us long ago, is not an expression of hope but a foolish and dangerous abrogation of reality. It dulls the mind and the aspiration of a people who then become lost and blinded under a veritable veil of deception. Peace is impossible for a nation like Israel without its own demonstration of unassailable military strength and its utter rejection of concessions to an implacable enemy. The Arab world respects strength. It treats concessions with complete and utter scorn. It considers overtures of peace as a sign of weakness and becomes emboldened in its aggression. No! to concessions : http://xrl.us/biz8x
3. B'tselem and similar
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron Israel   (10.25.08)
The explanation is easy, they are stressed because we are bad and occupy their land and teat them badly when they innocently through stones and molotovs to us! We are to blame! Please somebody go and make sure those idiots in B'tselem and similar read this and understand, you cannot talk peace with people who plainly hate you, like it or not!

Omar ,   Nablus-PALESTINE   (10.25.08)
do u know what pisses me off in life? its closed minded people who can't see 10 meters right infront of them. Imagine a city or since u r little minded, lets say a house or to make it easier for u, lets say ur house, ur father or mother is blocking u inside, u r unable to go out of this house for 7 years in a row, u would try to do anything to go out of this house, right!!!! and thats the scenario we have, we r 300,000 peope in nablus or (Shekhem) and we are sealed.. u cant go by ur car outside nablus, u cant move, insults are daily exercises on checkpoints, what do expect from this people? i think thats the least, am not with terrorisim anywhere but we are just a nation that demands its recognition from this world. Imagine all palestinians having a normal life, working, going out and so on, will they think of such things? the answer is NO. so try to be considerable and change places for one minute only and by then only u ll know the kind of life we r having!!!

If people like yourself agree to let israel live in peace as a jewish majority state within safe and secure borders you might get your wish. However, if you continue to insist on the destruction of Israel, either militarialy or demographically (by the idiotic idea that you are entitled to aright of return) the plan to move to Jordan before the Israelis ethnically cleans you fron the west bank and Gaza
7. 1&4- State Dept thinking =Israel ought to "bleed a little"
Alan ,   SA   (10.25.08)
8. To Nr.5
Alon Frank ,   Beth Shemesh,Israel   (10.25.08)
Dear pali, Isn't Nablus considered a web for Islamic terrorism? Didn't the suicide bombers come from your area? So what are you complaining about your life there? You pali's wanted our land and wanted to kill us. strange we react like this? If you would have recognized us as the rightfull owners of the land,things would have been changed for the good and you could have benefitted from this.

Omar ,   Nablus, PALESTINE   (10.25.08)
Thats exactly what i mean by shor sited!! let me tell u Mr. destruction of Israel, either militarialy or demographically, that u took another direction of the argument and u went far for another argument and also for Mr. Nablus considered a web for Islamic terrorism. You are not living there and politically u both know nothing, let me tell u a short story, nablus was considered to be the heart of Palestine (Economic, Capitalisem, Ministries, u name it) then the Intifada started, since that time, the Israely army have imposed a sanctions and restrictions on the city, why? do u think Nablus had terrorists? Do u think nablus had suicide bombers? go back to the statistics and u can see that nablus had the least. So its all about the media and the made up stories by ur inellegence to keep nablus under closure, WHY? why u dont hear the same about Jenin, Tulkarem, Ramamllah, Qalqilyeh, Jericho? Do u ask urselves why? no, because thats what u see. So let educate u both politically since u have both have a huge lack of it, Nablus used to have it all, but its all now have been shifted to Ramallah, Why? thats the Israely political scenario for the future capital of Palestine, ramallah is near Jerusalem, all the ministries are there, all the media is there, everything is in ramallah now, so, the only way for israel to make that dream comes true is to keep nablus under tough closure and at the same time to make ramallah more popular. Thats all, believe me, there is nothing in nablus, people are just bored of this. am not asking for ur sympathy nor ur true opinion, but at least am educating u on things which u cant read in ur local newspaper. All the stories are made up for nablus to sustain it in this paralized situation as long aas possible.
10. The question is why do we let arabs
jason white ,   afula,israel   (10.26.08)
occupy Jewish land. We should remove them and end the arab occupation now.
