Concern on Left: Gov't of settlers underway    Efrat Weiss
31. Beilin and his cohorts
do not know the GOD of Israel. Instead of being loyal to the Land of Israel-Israel's liberated biblical and historic homeland, they are crusading Islamist-Jihadism on Israel. They should move and live with the dark forces instead of sabotaging Israel from within.

32. Tell me again: Who voted for Meretz & Peace Now?

PIECE NOW IS UPSET THAT THE WORLD WILL NOT LOVE THEM ANYMORE IF THERE IS THIS NEW ISRAEL GOV'T. TO DISCREDIT THE NEW GOV'T. , PIECE NOW HAS THIS NEW SLOGAN. IT IS ... ' This isn't unity, it's extreme Right.' THIS SHOULD REALLY READ THAT THE NEW GOVERNMENT IS " EXTREMELY RIGHT " OR EXTREMELY GOOD. THE BEILINS AND "PIECE NOW" OF THIS WORLD ARE TRYING THEIR EXTREME BEST TO UNDERMINE AND DESTROY ISRAEL IN ORDER TO PLEASE OR SUCK UP TO THE REST OF THE "WORLD"....... ARE THEY IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS ?...... NO !! ..... AND THEY ARE EXTREMELY CUT OFF AND LEFT FAR BEHIND FROM REALITY !!!

35. EVERYONE IN THE WORLD IS A SETTLER ... AT SOMETIME..
PEOPLE DON'T JUST HATCH OUT OF THIN AIR.... EVERBODY SETTLES SOMEWHERE ON EARTH AND AT SOMETIME IN HISTORY...... THROUGH PAST HISTORY AND IN EVERYONE'S LIFETIME, PAST AND PRESENT , PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SETTLERS... IT'S A COMMANDMENT FOR JEWS TO SETTLE ISRAEL !!

36. rabble rousers
The national union is not a member of the coalition. Labor is, in truthe Labor in its day did increase settlements. Beillin and Oppenheimmer should concentrate their efforts on making Gay Parades through Ramallah Jenin and Gaza. This is more up their ally.

39. WHATS SO BAD ABOUT SETTLEMENTS?
People put on this fallacy that settlements deter peace. NO. VIOLENCE deters PEACE. And either way, Jordan attacked in 1967, annexed off the West Bank when Israel started whooping their butts, and it became Israels. Settlements are legal by international law considering that Jordan does not claim it to be theirs after they were legal owners to the land in 1950-67 and Israel then won it. It is also land that was Jewish land 2000 years ago. Settlers are returning to that land.

40. The traitor is the plague.
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.." - Cicero. Jews who defame Israel are the most pernicious tools in the war against Israel and Jewry, those who, to paraphrase Cicero, move among us freely, teaching our young, their sly moral equivalence, which equates Israel with its tormentors, heard in the halls of government itself. They preen and strut as supposed devotees of "peace" and "justice." More at : http://xrl.us/beh9va

41. It is a right wing government and ?
In France as well it is a right wing government. Is it forbidden by any israeli laws to have an right wing government? Are all of these nice guys from left suggesting to cancel democracy when its result are too right wing result and not as they wish? If they agree with democracy they should learn that when you lost election it comes from israeli voices.

Sore loser!!!

43. Peace
You would think that there would be world peace once there is a two state solution here or if Israel didn't exist at all. As if there are no wars nor political tension anywhere else on this planet. But everyone is always blaming us, including Beilin for instance. We have so many enemies in the world, and also unfortunately from within our own - like all the Leftists. If they don't like things here, let them leave already.

44. matter of time
It is just a matter of time before all you right-wing, nationalist talkbackers will be cursing Netanyahu for giving into the economic and political pressures from the West. In the meantime, have fun and enjoy yourselves.

45. Beilin wants his own villa "kassamized"!
Self delusion turns into masochism ! Bring on the Prozac !

46. Talkbackers missing the point, as is Beilin
With barely 3 seats in the Knesset, Meretz astounds us all by continuing with their exact same losing ideology. Meretz simply cannot survive if it continues to think that the Oslo process is alive and the only route possible. Unless they come up with something new and palatable to the voters, there is no reason to believe that they will have trouble making the threshold and keeping a presence in the Knesset. Peace Now, on the other hand, is simply a lobby group with a dwindling following. The entire concept of land-for-peace was shown to be a failure with the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. however, Peace Now (like Meretz), insists on following a failed policy and wants Israel to immediately withdraw from all territory acquired in the '67 war. The Israeli electorate, however, believes the Palestinians more than they believe Peace Now - and fully expects that kassam missiles will rain down on Jerusalem and Tel Aviv if that happens. Thus, with no alternatives, the Israeli voter chose the current government. Oppenheimer and Beilin can weep and wail at the situation until they're blue in the face, but unless they come up with new ideas they will be trampled again by Israeli public opinion.

47. there is no extreme right in Israel
none at all, the farthest right party is Ichud Leumi (The National Union), and if you put aside all the extreme lefts lies, and propaganda, and see for yourself what Ichud Leumi, represents, you will probably be quite suprised that they are the only worthwhile politicians in this nation. I myself voted Ichud Leumi and will again in the next election, which will of course be coming very soon. Many of those who supported Likud and believed all of Liebermans nonsense would do well to look into Ichud Leumi, you will find that these men and women are completely honest and dedicated to Israels, idependence, security, and peace. They are just realistic and honest, this is not easy but is necasary for our survival in these times. All the rest of this nations politicians are nothing but lying oppurtunists. Please see for yourselves what Ichud Leumi is all about, instead of letting the media tell you.... http://www.leumi.org.il

48. in response to #44
You are absolutly right. That's why true, intelligent and informed Zionists, nationalists, and right wing minded individuals, who closely follow politics, and don't just beleive what they are told voted for Ichud Leumi. In the next election when all those who were lied to by BiBi and Lieberman, come to their rude awakening they will join us too. The left is crying that this is an extreme right wing goverment. What's right wing or nationalist about it at all? Nothing. There will be another election soon, and the goverment will truly move farther right, not extreme, or any other such nonsense words the left of this nation can throw around. Simply a matter of the realization that there will never be peace through bargaining, and the realization that we are alone in the world and better defend our nation. http://www.leumi.org.il

51. Yariv Oppenheimer has a very small forehead,
yet smaller than Mashal. Both would be better off if they kept as leaders of their zoos,within strong fences not to cause damage to passangers.
