61. Israel never showed commitment by action, just words
Interpol   (03.16.10)
Anouncing a freeze that isn't one , Bar-Ilan speech with nothing implemented and much more blah blah,... Where are Netanyahu's deeds that prove commitment to peace?!
62. 55, Unshakable bond, but what is even worse is that
observer   (03.16.10)
the USA is not willing to pay the enormous get Israel is demanding to bring around the divorce.
63. 15
16/3/10   (03.16.10)
"How much time remains, before SEVERE persecution of Jews begins in America???" Not much.
64. No talks ever!
Paul ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (03.16.10)
The fascocrats occuping the White House is raging about Jewish Rights to East Jerusalem. The Arabs are rioting about a shul in the Jewish Quarter, and Clinton, you know the women who doesn't like to be poked by cigars, says Israel must show a commitment to peace. If this doesn't wake up Jews to what lies ahead with a 2-state solution, they never will.
65. #58 Obama+ the West also endorse Jewish+Pal states
Sam ,   Canada   (03.16.10)
It's not Israel gives the Palestinians territory for a state while the Palestinians reject the Jewish state and then come back for more later. That's the Arab version of peace. It's not Israel's or the US version of peace.
66. Hillary's peace commitment Crap
Brod ,   USA   (03.16.10)
Why don't Hillary, Biden and Obama tell their peace commitment to the Islamist-Jihadists so-called Palestinians who already have a large country in Jordan? Why crusade on Israel? The Land of Israel is GOD-GIVEN and GOD-RESTORED to the Jews. Why are they so obsessed in helping the Islamist-Jihadists crusade their Jihadism on Israel? It is time the 3 stooges stop making a fool of themselves. It is time the stop wallowing in the cesspool of AntiSemitism and colluding with Jihadism. Judea-Christian America rejects their crap! Israel must remain united, resolute and strong in confronting and countering them. Israel is a sovereign country and must defend its sovereignty against the modern crusaders emanating from the world of AntiSemitism and Islamist-Jihadism.
67. time to market the Arab Peace Initiative to Israelis
observer   (03.16.10)
Obama said: "The Israelis would be crazy not to accept this initiative. It would give them peace with the Muslim world from Indonesia to Morocco."
68. 38
Rosie   (03.16.10)
Agree with every word!
69. I havn't heard her condemning this day of rage
zionist forever   (03.16.10)
I am sick and tired of the United States now. This regime gets its kicks out of trying to harm Israel. Today we have had rioting in Jerusalem and the reason for it all is because a centuries old synagogue in the jewish quarter of the Old City was rededicated after the arabs destroyed it in 1948. Obamas friend Abbas hasn't had anything to say on the matter but good old Hillary is once again spewing the same old line of Israel must commit to peace whilst demanding nothing from the arabs. We might not be shooting at each other but the Obama regime has as good as declared war with Israel. No more apologies over the Biden issue Bibi has apologized on the record in the media that should be enough. Now tell Clinton & her master in the White House to go to hell and start building homes FOR ISRAELIS in the capital OF ISRAEL if the Obama regime doesn't like it thats their problem.
70. Bill's Pastor on letting Israel down
sam ,   jerualem   (03.16.10)
Oct 27 1997 http://www.knesset.gov.il/description/eng/doc/speech_clinton_1994_eng.htm excerpt from Bill Clinton's speech "We visited the holy sites. I relived the history of the Bible, of your scriptures and mine, and I formed a bond with my pastor. Later when he became desperately ill he said he thought I might one day become president and he said, more bluntly than the Prime Minister did, if you abandon Israel, God will never forgive you. He said that it is God's will that Israel, the biblical home of the people of Israel, continue for ever and ever. "
71. This is soooo lame, do they think people are stupid?#
carlos ,   San Diego U.S.A.   (03.16.10)
72. hillary.....
Shalom ,   U.S.A.   (03.16.10)
This woman deserves nothing but profanities. What a shameless hypocrite!
73. #39 SPARE PARTS
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (03.16.10)
FYI ,U.S is not the only country making spare parts for aircraft and also airplanes.Russia, China and many others do.Israel would be much better off with Russian warplanes with no strings attached,Hillary Clinton and Obummer can then go to hell .Talking of spare parts,it is patently obvious you need a spare brain.
74. #67 Obama already admitted he+and his advisors were naive
Sam ,   Canada   (03.16.10)
Obama admitted he and his advisers were naive in their rush to peace. It doesn't count for Jews until the ARABS PUBLICALLY and CLEARLY tell the Jews they accept the Jewish state. The Arab Initiative does not say that. Most Jews are not naive and weren't born yesterday.
75. Obama/clinton have lost their credibility
Michael   (03.16.10)
Iran building a Nuclear missles is not demanded to be commited to peace. But a PLAN to build houses (to fulfill the most basic human right that of shelter) on paper . For this Israel has to show a commitment to peace. The fact that Israel removed its citizens from Gaza and gave it to the palestinians that ACTION does not show a commitment to peace?! Even the Saudis couldn't haven't of thought of such an absurd policy. I guess it's not enough to wreck the U.S. economy and U.S. jobs I guess he wants to share his wreckless policies with allies too..
76. #39 DON'T BE SO DAMN CHEAP
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (03.16.10)
Do not abandon your birthright and G-d promised land, paid for by the blood of 22,000 Israeli soldiers for the sake of a few spare parts.As for Hillary Clinton : BOLLOCKS TO HER.
77. #67 It is time for Israel to give its Peace
(03.16.10)
initiave.
78. I just wonder...
Lou ,   Deal, USA   (03.16.10)
I just wonder what would have happened, if the UN would have divided Palestine and put the Jewish state on the other side (where Jordan is). Would the Palestinians also keep attacking us there? Would they keep claiming that it is there land too? I bet that there would have still been a 67 way, 73 war and all the wars before and after. They just don't want to accept the fact that the Jewish nation existed and has alway been a presence in the Land of Israel. I just don't understand why much of the world is blind to these facts.
79.  'unshakable bond'
arik ,   usa   (03.17.10)
This 'unshakable bond' is due to a combination of factors--one of the primary being AIPAC's sway over the legislature of this country, another being Christian zionist sentiment, which will ultimately seek to convert the Jews to Christianity. We need to strive to see things as they are and make clear decisions based on facts. We, in this country, must ask ourselves if we would like our mid-east foreign policy dictated by these groups. This policy has a direct impact on US lives. Just today, US generals have said that what happens in Jerusalem has a direct impact on what our troops are facing in Iraq and Afghanistan.
80. Shame on you!
Shlomo ,   California, USA   (03.17.10)
Shame on you all for the racist comments about the President of the United States! You sound just like the Nazis or the Taliban. Obama is not anti-Israel, or Muslim like most bigots would like to think. Have you forgotten the Ten Commandments? Did you forget the one about false witness? As a Jew I am insulted by these remarks and ashamed of my people for saying them. What happened to civility? Didn't your parents teach you respect for others even if you disagree with them?
81. obamas game is tzibi livni in netenyahu out
secular beast   (03.17.10)
82. America is on its way to disaster. The L_RD judges rightly.
Ken Quinn ,   Amsterdam   (03.17.10)
83. Why Don't The Paestinians have to prove they want peace?
Jethro ,   Marquette, MI USA   (03.17.10)
Again with the double standards? The Palestinians can have a violent protests while th world screams that Israel needs to prove they are commited to peace?
84. Clinton must prove commitment to peace
(03.17.10)
Clinton must prove commitment to peace After Mitchell and Biden visit they inflame the ARABS in Israel - as in every "peace process" - include OSLO - and you can see today the Arabs riots...
85. barak and talks
alexi   (03.17.10)
keep barak away from national policies as he is a weakling in peace talks. lebanon withdrawal and his mishandling of arafat talks are proof of his ineptitude and frankly cowardice especially for the 2 officers lynched in ramallah. he has a limited role in defense and that is it. Yaalon should replace him soon. And bibi should keep working to recruit some kadimites minus livni to replace livni and labour. oslo is dead period.
86. How nostalgic I grow for the Bush years at times
Cameron ,   USA   (03.17.10)
What a damn bad year it's been under this dithering, daffy Obama administration. And you & I know the next three are going to be a flippin' mess. I have never seen my country this damn angry, divided, & sour as Hell. It does have an ominous, spooky feel to it at this point. Remember that old Chinese curse? "May you live in interesting times."
87. Will somebody please sew her mouth shut?
Brad ,   USA   (03.17.10)
More bullcrap from the wicked witch of the west. Her body is just a life support system for that big mouth.
88. #12 -- greatest talkback ever
dan   (03.17.10)
and it should be the talking point for the israeli government. how can we even suggest negotiations with a party that does not accept israel as a jewish state? israel has in principle accepted a palestinian state. bibi restated it. whats the deal???
89. No. 61 Interpol
NYC Girl   (03.17.10)
Never showed commitment by actions? You seem to be suffering from selective amnesia. Have you forgotten that the Israelis turned Gaza over to the Palestinians, complete with a functioning economy and infrastructure? And have you also forgotten that what Israel received in return was those Hamas knuckle-draggers turning Gaza into a launching pad to attack innocent civilians? However, if you're not a raging hypocrite and outright liar, but merely a victim of dementia or Alzheimer's disease... I'll be willing to give you a pass.
90. How about the US demonstrating......
Sigfried S. Kuhn ,   Aberdseen Md. USA   (03.17.10)
The duplicitous Sec. of State Clinton wants Israel to demonstrate its commitmant to peace. What an arrogant witch. Why doesn't she pressure the Paleswtinians to demonstrate their commitmant to peace? Better yet, all the words of the nitwit Biden and Clinton about America's commitmant to Israel's security are just that----words with no substance. While Israel is in danger of annihilation from the Iranians, the US has done nothing to stop Iran. There have been no sanctions, and Obama and his cabal have only shown their lack of concern for Israel. Yet, the moronic American Jews will continue to vote Democratic.
