32. My Daffy
Hawaii here I come .   (01.22.09)
How come he is he still alive - this terrorist ?? 21 arab countries in the world, and they want us to take the 1 million palestinians, what a joke, that way the arab countries, can sit back and say, at long last somebody wants the palestinians. Actually good idea, lets move Israel to hawaii, great place to live, why not? Israelis love the summer and beaches ..... or does he want to move the palestinians to Hawaii ......
33. Isratine? How about Ovaltine?
Scott ,   USA   (01.22.09)
34. media clown
fish israel   (01.22.09)
why does media give a rostrum to all world clowns and idiots to propmte their sick dreams? If it wasn't for AL-Jazeera serving as PR office for OBL, and willing BBC as PR office for Hamas and CNN as PR office for Hizballah, the world would have been a much better and safer place.
35. Qaddafi makes sense this should be on front page
Rami ,   UK   (01.22.09)
Obviously he is able to "raise" contact with Osama who wants to come in from the cave - and why not? If we spare and mollycoddle Hamas and Hizbollah, the USA can do the same for Al-Qaeda.
36. HE'S RIGHT ONLY 62yrs TOO LATE minimum.
Sar haPanim ,   Israel   (01.22.09)
The right idea at the wrong time is as bad and useless as the wrong idea at the right time. Yes it should have been a one state solution ,on British Mandated Palestine, but Britains Imperial War Tactics prevailed. Divide and conquer. Britains fear of a Jewish superpower in the Middle East has caused many wars in the region. If the state had been declared in 1920 who knows how different the Shoa might have been. The Jews and Arabs of the land had common enemies and might have been able to work together.
37. Looney tunes.
Petra ,   USA   (01.22.09)
from the head loon.
38. STOP PLAYING WITH GADDAFI. THE POINT IS CLEAR ...
IT IS FREE PALESTINE ,   ATİLLA KARAGÖZOĞLU   (01.22.09)
39. How about "LYBAMA" for a new Libya ...
Hans ,   Germany   (01.22.09)
with a democratic touch? And an exile for Osama in Israel paid by Lybia?
40. Qaddafi Looks Like Pothead Returning From India After Army
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (01.22.09)
He looks like he's going to pull out a hash pipe and listen to some groovy music and say "Hey dude let's get @#$#DF up!
41. Gaddafi always the joker of the arab world
zionist forever   (01.22.09)
Whenever your feeling low listen to one of Gaddafis speeches and you will feel much better after that. Give Osama Bin Laden a chance to reform. Let the jews go to Hawaii, Alaska or an island in the Pacific. You just can't help laughing at his ideas. THANKS GADDAFI YOU HAVE REALLY PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE. May Gaddafi make us laugh for many years to come.
42. #38 You are an idiot, GO TO HELL
Ousider ,   AU   (01.22.09)
43. #30 ONE STATE ONLY: ISRAEL FOREVER
Alex ,   US   (01.22.09)
44. In other words ...
Tobias ,   Germany   (01.22.09)
he suggests to "wipe Israel off the map" and replace it with a state with a muslim arab majority (about 5.5 to 6 mio. Jews and 1.5 arab israeli citizens + about 4 mio. arabs in Gaza + West Bank + several million (grandchildren of) refugees -> will result in a muslim majority very soon). The jews should rather commit suicide (like in Masada) than voluntarily agree to a situation in which they'd be again a persecuted minority in a country with a very hostile majority.
45. No. 5 Mark
NYC Girl   (01.22.09)
Obviously, somebody takes him seriously if he was allowed to address students at Georgetown University from which, by the way, many government officials and diplomats graduate. The mistake that Georgetown made was that he could have made a much more valuable contribution had he been addressing students studying Abnormal Psychology.
46. Thank you, Mr. Gaddafi. A ONE State solution would
Rivkah   (01.22.09)
delay many coming judgments and the end of Gentile world rule prophesied in the Bible. But the Muslim Palestinian people would have to live in peace with the Jews which they cannot do. So the Muslim Palestinians must go to Muslim countries. Christian Palestinians get along with Jews in Israel, but the Muslims do not. The Prophet Joel and many others tell that the division of God's land will result in Armageddon. God's land is Jerusalem. Acknowledging God's authority in giving land to the Jews from the Nile River in Egypt to the Euphrates River in Iraq, would go a long way to appeasing the Lord who will destroy the Muslim nations listed in the Bible prophecies if that is not done. Mr. Gaddafi has the good sense to know a ONE State solution would be more pleasing to the Lord than a divided Jerusalem, IF the Jews are given Jerusalem and the land.
47. 9
zionist forever   (01.22.09)
Zeev Even amongst the seculars the majority of Israeli and diaspora jews want Israel to remain a jewish state and would not accept Gadaffis kind of ideas. If it came to war or giving up the idea of a jewish state then war would be the chosen option. Why should the jews make compromises for others? There are 22 arab states that between them control 90% of the Middle East not only that but there are probably around 50 muslim states in the world. Why should the only jewish state give up its identity because the muslims say its do as your told ( a single state ) or we are going to carry out terror attacks? Gaddafi taked about giving Bin Laden a chance to reform, what would be the American reaction if he issued an ultimatum become an islamic state or my people will keep crashing planes into office buildings? Would Americans say lets accept Bin Ladens demands if its the only way to avoid these terror attacks ir would they say do your worst and we will fight you before we accept your demands? Why should Israel be any different in its desire to hold onto its identity even if it does mean we have to keep fighting till we have won our freedom from terrorist who want to destroy the idea of a jewish state.
48. Let's turn that around and send the troublemakers to Hawaii
(01.22.09)
An island in Hawaii is a good place to send the arabs. Obama would sign off on that.
49. or Palesael, more like it
(01.22.09)
50. and jews will live as dhimmis again in their homeland; arabs
bernard ross ,   st anns bay jamaica   (01.22.09)
51. Sandy, #24
David ,   USA, exile   (01.22.09)
Wrong Sandy! Brain surgery requires a brain. There is no brain in this case, only an evil spirit.
52. #46 Rivkah
David ,   USA, exile   (01.22.09)
Rivkah, you have really really completely lost it this time girl. Read what you have written. You are suggesting that Yisra'el "MIX" with Amalak. You are saying it is a good thing that she unite with the enemies of G-d. Please clear the cob webs from your brain before you speak. Now, go ahead and pronounce your curses' on me. Pray that G-d rebuke me which is what you do so well when others point out your error.
53. Psalm 83:4 or 5. Sigh.
The 11th Man ,   London   (01.22.09)
54. I agree on a one state solution: It's called Israel
Alexander ,   Herzliya, Israel   (01.22.09)
..and the Arabs/Muslims should leave Israel, Judea, Samaria and Gaza and move to Libya and create their "Palestine" in Gaddafi's ass.
55. Israel, Undivided & Jewish.
The 11th Man ,   London   (01.22.09)
And stretching from the River of Egypt to the Euphrates. KEN Y'HI RATZON!
56. I suggest you change the name of Libya to Li-trash!
Rachel ,   USA   (01.22.09)
Or Li-terrorists or Li-disgusting...What does Mr. Ghaddafi has to say about that? And what about changing his own name to kicked-all-Jews-out-in-67-ddafi? Isn't that a fabulous idea???
57. Isratine & exile
Stephanie ,   USA   (01.23.09)
Yes...cause exiling the entire Jewish People of Israel is the solution. Wait, wasn't this done before? What's the name of that place we were exiled to? Oh, right! ISRAEL!!!
58. Jews & "Brown People"
Stephanie ,   USA   (01.23.09)
My dear imbecile, we "JEWS" tend not to want to live with people who tell us we should be exterminated, driven into the ocean, or that we should move to Hawaii or some other Pacific Island far way...especially since they'll just come after us there next. And that's not decided by the COLOR OF THEIR SKIN, THEIR CREDE, THEIR RELIGION OR OTHERWISE.
59. Khadafi
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (01.25.09)
King Idris,the ruller of Libia,before Khadafi's coup detat,suggested to Abdul Naser,the ruller of Egypt.since Libia is a big country and has few inhabitants,he is willing to take in the palestinian refugees,Abdul Naser consulted with big brother in Moskow,big brother said,no,the palestinian problem served the interests of the bolshevics,like today ,it serves the interests of Iran,Mr Khadafi ! King Idris had the right Idea,It would be good for Libia and the Palestinians if you take them in to your country.
60. migrate to Alaka or to the moon
Sami hassan ,   gaza palestine   (01.27.09)
To my sorrow and pleasure at the same time, most comments indicate the arrogance ,racism and even ignorance of israeli and european citizens inspite of their so called civilized socoietes . I would agree for a one binational state in palestine. USA is a multi national state. Kadthaffi is the most honest leader of our world. He is right in saying that if israeli people reject to live with the highly educated ,intellegent and brave palestinian arabs then they must migrate to alaska or to the moon!!
