1. Ridiculouys notion, which is why Kadima will embrace it.
bernard ross ,   st anns bay jamaica   (01.07.09)
Turkey is run by islamists and france has been hostile to israel for years. Why not invite the iranians?
2. Counterproposal
J K ,   NYC, USA   (01.07.09)
Produce Gilad Shalit to the Red Cross to be brought back into Israel or the campaign continues.
3. Turkey run by islamists?
Jesse ,   New Haven, USA   (01.07.09)
That's a new one. Maybe if you actually read a single piece of information about Turkish governance you would change your mind...
4. proposel
colin   (01.07.09)
Any proposel of a ceasefire in gaza that has the backing of Condi Rice must be inspected with a large magnifying glass.She is anti Isreal and against the american thought.that will allow security for Israel. Both france and Turkey have a history of annimosity aginst Israel They cannot be trusted in dealings towards security for Israel.
5. Congratulations
mike ,   London   (01.07.09)
Funny, this means israel didnt achieve anything, hamas still exist. This is the second time israel start a war and lose it, same as israel did with huzballa.
6. #3, AKP is an islamic party

7. *** Hello Leftist Simpletons ! ***
vit ,   usa   (01.07.09)
Israel Should Make The Same Crude Rockets Like Hamas And Respond 'Proportionally' By Firing Them At Gaza. ( And Now I Will Go Back To My Sandbox And Play With My Toy Trucks ! Would You Like To Join Me ? )
8. It will be another Resolution 1701 - Absolute Joke
DONT DO IT ,   JOB'S NOT FINISHED   (01.07.09)
9. Cease Fire is Irrelevant
(01.07.09)
Since Israel refuses to occupy Gaza and intends to leave, this war should contintue until objectives met. Cease fire is irrelevant.
10. ''rice supports mubarek''
elliot ,   usa   (01.07.09)
headline is misleading as the body makes clear--why so much bias agaist israel in israeli press?
11. UN Monitors
Ely ,   NYC, USA   (01.07.09)
Sounds like a great idea....this plan should be spearheaded by Mahmoud Ahmadinijad...lets take it one step further...lets put the iranian air force in charge of defending israeli airspace...i wouldnt be surprised if the genius drafters of this plan next suggested to th US that we let osama bin laden run the CIA.
12. Gilad Shalit
Ezer   (01.07.09)
Israel should not accept any cease fire that does not return Gilad Shalit.
13. Hamas commits war crimes, Israel gets the blame
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, DC USA   (01.07.09)
I, for one, find the allocation of responsibility morally indefensible. Hamas commits war crimes by firing rockets at a sovereign neighbor without provocation, storing and operating weapons from civilian neighborhoods, and using women and children as human shields. Israel defends against that agression and is deemed... the aggressor. Rice is rather quick to call for a donors conference to "rebuild Gaza", given that it is the aggressor. And who will act as donor? I as a US taxpayer don't want one dollar of my money to go for rebuilding Gaza. This was a case of Islamic aggression; Gaza's Muslim neighbors should pay for the rebuilding. The proposed "truce" plan smells like a set-up, and it looks like Israel is getting rolled. Its conditions aren't being met, and Shalit is still sitting in some Gaza hideout.
14. # 2
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.07.09)
Agreed.
15. reuters
jordan ,   hebron, israel   (01.07.09)
Reuters is anti-Israel; the article fails to mention that terrorists were using the UN school as a lunch pad.
16. The best proposal.
(01.07.09)
1. Hamas unconditionally stop fighting and launching rockets on Israel !!! 2. Hamas stop using children and women as fodder by shooting from schools, hospitals, residential buildings, etc. 3. Hamas stop complaining about Israel when they place their own innocent citizens in harm's way. 4. Hamas should be exposed for what they really are - the most hienous, blood thirsty criminals who want to destroy the whole of Israel and who even murder their own people in the process of punishing Israel. 5. Hamas should dismantle and cease to exist because they are a terrorist organization bent on raw and criminal destruction of life. 6. Hamas should immediately free Gilad Shalit !!!!
17. No! to foreign troops in the Land of Israel.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (01.07.09)
Israel should refuse with all its energie the presence of foreign troops in the Land of Israel. This land is the land of the Jews and Israel can take care of it. No one else has any right on this country. The myth of the “Palestinian people” is based on lies and manipulations of the KGB and does not correspond to the Historical truth, and to moral. It should be rejected as explained at : http://xrl.us/osubn
18. A little modification to #2...
Lobo ,   USA   (01.07.09)
JK- put the word "ALIVE" after the words "Red Cross"
19. Proposterous
Lioness ,   Israel   (01.07.09)
Mubarak , the guy who has allowed rockets and explosives, come through his country and be allowed to be smuggled into Gaza.
20. What about Shalit?
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.07.09)
There should be no ceasefire without Shalit's release. Unconditionally & Non- Negotiable. And the idea of international monitors is just plain stupid.
21. Condoleezza Rice-a-Roni Throws Israel Under the Bus
bob ,   potomac usa   (01.07.09)
22. it was elimination, then big bang, now it is only Shalit
observer   (01.07.09)
23. Hello Ms Rice, are you all there?
Leah ,   Israel   (01.07.09)
Mubarak has allowed rockets be smuggled into Gaza via Egypt. We do not trust him. Repeat after me. We do not trust him.
24. Rice&Rache
Copy   (01.07.09)
Rice is nice, but not as nice as Rachel!
