1. what's next?
avramele   (08.19.09)
will the minister of the very far right accuse the left of being part of "an international Jeiwish conspiracy" centered in the White House and led by Rahm Emanuel?
2. I agree. It is a self destructive virus.
Zionist ,   Miami   (08.19.09)
It is like the immune system attacking the being.
3. Yaalon is right
Brod ,   USA   (08.19.09)
Yaalon is absolutely right. Never cow to the AntiSemite Papist-dominated Obama administration. Israel must be united, resolute and strong in confronting the world of AntiSemites and Islamist-Jihadists. The latter are modern day Crusaders trying to usurp the Land of Israel from the Jews. Israel should whip the Crusaders without any qualms.
4. "Peace" Now is a terrorist funded organization.
they must be ,   eradicated!   (08.19.09)
5. I'm no great fan of Oppenheimer...
DkS ,   J'lem, IL   (08.19.09)
...but his remarks in reply to Ya'alon's incitement hit the nail on the head. Ya'alon was a poor excuse of an IDF chief who left the army in a terrible state before the second Lebanon war, and as a politician he is even more unnecessary. I hope Bibi will reprimand or better even fire him: Ya'alon apparently has not internalized yet that in the current state of Israel words like the one uttered by him can result in murder.
6. YAALON
av ,   london uk   (08.19.09)
YAALON IS RIGHT THIS PEOPLE ARE DANDEROUS VIRUS HIDING BEHIND THE SO CALLED HUMAN RIGHTS OK
7. Nutjob #3 "Papist-dominated Obama administration"????
David ,   Los Angeles   (08.19.09)
That's a new one. What is wrong with you crazies?
8. GO, YA'ALON! GO!
Freethinker   (08.19.09)
9. YA-ALON IS TOTALTY RIGHT !!!.
ORAO STRANKA. ,   TSARIGRAD U SRBIA.   (08.19.09)
Ya'alon to Likud's right: Peace Now is a virus Vice prime minister lashes out at Left during conference of Likud's Jewish Leadership members. Peace Now: Ya'alon is real strategic threat on Israel FURTHER - JOEL 3. 9Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles: Prepare war! Wake up the mighty men! Let all the men of war draw near; let them come up. 10Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, "I am strong." THIS IS THE 3rd WORLD WAR, WHEN ALL CIVILIAN PRODUCTION WILL TURN TO WAR PRODUCTION FROM JOEL CHAPTER 3. 1"For behold, in those days and in that time, when I shall bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, 2I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the Valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for My people and for My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted My land. 3rd WORLD WAR AS ABOVE. BEFORE THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN - 5"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. THAT DAY IS THE 3rd WORLD WAR. 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." FURTHER - Peace Now Secretary-General Yariv Oppenheimer said in response, "Ya'alon is a real strategic threat to Israeli democracy. His statements are dangerous and indicate Peace Now as a target. It is best that Ya'alon focus on the issues of his office, if there are any." THOSE PEACE NOW PEOPLE ARE IN TOTAL ERROR. ISRAEL BEVERE !!!. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWSATpx7uzk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LW4OPRb4uTs ORAO.
10. #1 Avramele, you are nearly right
Jake   (08.19.09)
"will the minister of the very far right accuse the left of being part of "an international Jeiwish conspiracy" centered in the White House and led by Rahm Emanuel?" Almost. However, the devil is in the detail, as they say. It is an international ANTI-Jewish conspiracy led by Leftists of Jewish extraction, more determined and filled with hate than any gentile. And yes, I do absolutely believe that.
11. I've probably said worse about Israel's leftists
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (08.19.09)
Since Peace Now is hardly one of Bibi's core constituencies whose feelings need to be assuaged, I wonder if perhaps he isn't being called in because of his association with Feiglin. Oppenheimer is offended? Who cares! They deserve the opprobrium.
12. Moshe Ya'alon for Prime Minister...Kol Hakavod Moshe!!!!!
David T. ,   Los Angeles   (08.19.09)
13. Brod #3 , what are you saying?
Jake   (08.19.09)
Papist dominated Obama administration of Crusaders? LOL. And I'm Pope Gregory IX! No. It is a small party of Jacobinist post-Bolshevik Fascists of the neo-Left under the leadership of a Hussein, who has an extremely soft spot for other Husseins, but an extreme contempt for Bobs, Bills, Joes, Mikes, Marks, and Brians - and their Constitution.
14. #4 eradicate?
long memory   (08.19.09)
are we to duplicate the sins of incitement that led to the Rabin assassination..already in the US the whacko's of the right are bringing guns to public meetings. And let us remind readers that Peace Now arose as a protest of IDF officers who had fought valiantly in Israel's wars.
15. TRUER WORDS WERE NEVER SPOKEN
zionist forever   (08.19.09)
Peace Now founded by the likes of Yuli Tamir. They are not just a virus but they are a terminal cancer that is trying to destroy Israel in the name of peace making. They support palestinian right of return and insist Israel accepts responsibility for the fact they left and lie to promote their pro arab propaganda. If this Peace Now cancer is not treated they will destroy Israel. Just like UNRWA and the Arab League Peace Now needs to be dismantled.
16. Ayalon thinks that
Yonatan ,   Yerushalayim   (08.19.09)
"The disengagement boosted jihadist Islam. Withdrawals strengthen the jihadists and terrorism." Funny, so do the best US conservative Think Tanks. In fact, the facts fit his statement quite accurately. Israel left Suthern Lebonon and we got... rocket attacks and Hezbollah. Israel left Gaza and we got...rocket attacks from Fatah, Hamas, and everyone else who Egypt allowed to smuggle in rockets, followed by a Hamas takeover and more rockets. Hamas has said that their terrorist activities are the direct cause of Israel leaving Gaza so they should increase terrosist activities against a weak Israel to win more concessions. This has brought them many more supporters in the Arab and Muslim world, including within Israel, Gaza, and Yesha. Hizbullah has made similar statements and has similar results.
17. what's the big deal. he said what he thinks. good for him
Randi ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (08.19.09)
18. The Question is?
Ralph Levy ,   USA   (08.19.09)
The question should be is why is Barak defending Peace Now so hard, and why is Bibi so bothered with this issue. Peace Now is a traitorous organization in my opinion. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com
19. It was a very stupid thing to say....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (08.20.09)
When you are a minister, you can think certain things but to speak them is unnecessary incitement. I think Oppenheimer is an asshole, but I wouldn't, as a gov't minister, say that about him or his group. They are doing what they think is best. Disagree with them, fine, but you sould like Ahamadinajad when you engage in such polemics.
20. a revisionist theory
centrist   (08.19.09)
perhaps bibi is getting close to negotiating a sensible compromise and the radical right is coalescing to stop him... watch for a government shake-up by Succot!
21. Just out of curiosity
Arie ,   BaGolan   (08.19.09)
Why are there 2 different standards. The lefties can say whatever they want without criticism yet when the right or moderates respond, OUTRAGE. Hypocrisy!
22. BRAVO YAALON !!!
Alon Frank ,   Beth Shemesh,Israel   (08.20.09)
I am proud of Moshe Yaalon. he is so right and sincere. I hope he will be our next PM with Feiglin. Good luck!
23. JUST LEMMINGS
sergio ,   Turin, Italy   (08.20.09)
24. Are they maybe a swine few?
(08.20.09)
25. Israel must atleast look like it is trying for peace
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, USA   (08.20.09)
Nothing will united the Muslim world quicker than Israel out right saying that it will take all the west bank and kick the non-Jews out. The illusion of peace and blaming the Palestines for failure is very important. Worse case is the UN could use green line and declare Palestine a nation and US not block it. Israel can beat the Arabs but not the world. It is better to make offers the Palestians will reject.
26. A new desease
Norman ,   france, Eurabia   (08.20.09)
Sometimes, something goes wrong and our body doesn't recognize his own cells. It's an auto-immune disease. Ya'alon is right, it is much more easy to fight an external enemy.
27. was peace now the virus that killed Arafat?
zionist forever   (08.20.09)
28. He's only saying aloud what most Israelis think
Yoav Naor ,   Haifa Israel   (08.20.09)
29. Ya'alon 100% correct and reasonable
Evelyn ,   Los Angeles   (08.20.09)
Minister Ya'alon said nothing about violence and the political opponents of the Jewish Leadership faction protest too much - they are the ones trying to conjure up images of violence. The pure acidity dripping from Yossi Sarid's penned response shows that the Deputy PM hit the mark spot on. Ya'alon simply said that Jews have the right to live in all the land of Israel. It is quite incredible that this has become a position of "the extreme right". Moshe Feiglin, who will G-d willing soon be the Prime Minister, is a calm, intelligent realist who stands up for the Jewish people. Leaders like Feiglin and Ya'alon are badly needed. No amount of left-wing media ink can drown out the Jewish people's desire to have leaders who understand that the land of Israel is a gift of G-d to all Jews. A new generation of Israelis is coming of age and will take the reins of power. Ya'alon will be on the winning team - a team that stands up for a proud and strong future of the Jewish people and the Jewish state.
30. Right On!
Roy ,   USA   (08.20.09)
Peese Now IS a frickin' virus; they could use an injection of "lead antibiotics!"
