1. Clinton and the Quartet
Ricardo Macher ,   Karnei Shomron IL   (03.19.10)
Israel must stop building, Israel must refrain from demolitions, Israel, Israel, Israel!!! And the arabs? Abbas and his puppet government, they must nothing? Mrs. Clinton, go home and keep an eye con Bill, it would be much healthier for you and the world!
2. Don't these idiots already know that Israel is above the law
(03.19.10)
3. Quartet delivers cattle cars to Israel
Marcel ,   Florida   (03.19.10)
The Quartet has determined that all Jews must board the trains to their new camps and condemned all building in Israel as this is an offense to all good Muslims. The Prime Minister of what was once Israel said he was working together with the Quartet for the cause of peace and that all Jews would comply with their latest ruling as Israel accepted their laws as God's laws.
4. "...independent Palestinian state within 24 months..."
Atilla Karagözoğlu ,   Day 4 to The Freedom   (03.19.10)
"..Top international diplomats meeting in Moscow on Friday called on Israel and the Palestinians to return to peace negotiations with a goal of reaching a final settlement that would create an independent Palestinian state within 24 months..."
5. The message is clear. Shooting the messenger won't help.
Quartet   (03.19.10)
6. Time is up
Ronen   (03.19.10)
Israel cannot occupy the WB forever. It's time to enter some serious negotiations. Most importantly, agree on final borders so this mess of where it is legal to settle and where not has finally an end.
7. WHAT EVER !
shu ,   UK   (03.19.10)
ANY WORD ABOUT HAMAS? HELLO? ANYTHING? KEEP BUILDING MY JEWISH FRIENDS.
8. Only Pals can have 20 children. Jews must be extinct species
a whale and a tigris   (03.19.10)
9. insecurity
alexi   (03.19.10)
each israeli Pm had his problems-remember 67 rabin-too sensitive and was incapacitated for a short time. Peres-no military decisiveness. Barak-oddly pacifist especially in the ramallah lynchings which is a deep stain on his record. Bibi-insecure and uncertain. Olmert-perfect example of cowardice and fear of terror. Livni-not far behind olmert. That is why bibi plays to form-appeasing the US, afraid to oppose US and EU on israeli interests. Each concession he offers, just brings the next concession. Stand up and be a man for bloody sake. As Lubriani said, who has to talk about construction-shut up about it. US and EU will force israel to 67 lines with some swaps and likely bibi will accept it objecting.
10. MIDDLE EAST PEACE NEGOTIATORS ARE OF NOT CONSEQUENTIAL
BENJAMIN ,   SINGAPORE   (03.19.10)
to YISRAEL :-)
11. Wouldn't it be more appropriate for them to call for...
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.19.10)
...the Muslim-Arabs - including the PLO's PA - to finally, after 62 years, accept the right of a UN member state to exist and to do so as the nation-state of the Jewish people, just as the UN intended in the first place? This lack of acceptance of the right of the Jewish people to its own nation-state in its historic ancestral homeland is the essence of the Arab Israeli conflict and it, not its symptoms must be dealt with.
12. Why must the State of Palestine be Judenrein?
Manny ,   Canada   (03.19.10)
Everyone is accepting the strange premise that, to come to existence, the future State of Palestine must be free of Jews. Really? Israel works as a Jewish state with 1.5 Million Arabs. There is a Jewish minority in most countries on Earth. Why not in Palestine? Now, we all know why but no one is saying it or printing it. It would be constructive to do so.
13. Quartet
jeremy ,   hula valley kibbutz   (03.19.10)
Any building done in Jerusalem is not building a settlement, they are neighborhoods in our Capital. Shove it up your butts on that one. Gaza, what problem they get more aid than Haiti does now and most African countries in general, they just choose to use it for terror. Try coming down on your Palestinian friends for not doing their part to solve the peace process problems. Until then to hell with the E.U and Obama
14. Palestine will be free, the world has decided
Nour ,   Palestine فلسطين   (03.19.10)
Settler squatters: Submit to Palestinian law and global will, or get out of Palestine. Palestine will be free, and you are offered peace in return of a total withdrawal to the 1967 lines including East Jerusalem (Al-Quds). Continue to drag feet and the whole region will be lit ablaze! NO PALESTINE = NO ISRAEL. Simple!
15. We will build, build and keep building
Lioness ,   israel   (03.19.10)
on the land that G-d gave the Jewish people and that includes Jerusalem our undivided capital city for over 3000 years. The Palestinians should go to Palestine which is Jordan that occupies 78% of the mandat land and has a Palestinian population of 77% of its people. Jordan IS PALESTINE
16. For 40 years Israel was told settling occupied land illegal
Yoyo   (03.19.10)
Why das the Quartet think that telling it once more will change anything (except that more people will understand that Israel is deaf when it comes to International law) ?!
17. So, does Israel want a 2-state solution or not?
Adi   (03.19.10)
Uttering just words about it while doing the oppsite on the ground has seriously harmed Israel's credibility. It's time for Netanyahu to decide.
18. #1, Yes, Israel must...
Alitar ,   Paldora   (03.19.10)
because it's Israel that has occupied the West Bank and it's Palestinians under occupation and not Israelis.
19. #7 Yes, keep building...
Alitar ,   Paldora   (03.19.10)
as much as you want but in Israel proper! Building on occupied land is illegal and it's time to draw the borders so it will finally also be clear for shu from UK what is allowed and what not.
20. #7 "KEEP BUILDING MY JEWISH FRIENDS"
Gil   (03.19.10)
I'm Jewish, can I build a puplic toilet in your garden?
21. How About an Arab 'Settlement' Freeze?
Serious Newspaper   (03.19.10)
How About an Arab 'Settlement' Freeze? Why are 21 countries with 800 times more land so obsessed with Israel?
22. The Zionist are feeling the heat these days !! :)
(03.19.10)
23. Moscow should freeze all attacks at the Chechen
tony ,   abuja, nigeria   (03.19.10)
Moscow should freeze all attacks on the Chechen, etc., and allowed them a soverign state if they want Israel to freeze building in their own land. This is nothing but obama and clinton's rethorics. The land belong to Israel and God will fight for them. Quartet or no quartet.
24. What is meant by building on occupied land being illegal?
Lou ,   Deal, USA   (03.19.10)
Before 1967, was it illegal for Jordan to build in what is referred to as the West Bank or Jerusalem? Did anyone condemn the Jordanians? But then what about the rest of the world? Just about every country in the world has land that they won through war, some they may have started, and some the loser of the land may have started. In Israel’s case, Israel was not the aggressor. Either way, if Israel is being told that they are not allowed to build, and then every country in the world should immediately halt building on what may be consider occupied or disputed territories. Why is it that Israel is being told that Jews are not allowed to build on their land, but could anyone imagine if Israel were to come out and say that anyone who is not Jewish can no longer build in the Land of Israel? That would not happen because Israel is not the evil country that much of the morally bankrupt world is trying to portray. Israel is a democratic country, (not immune to problems) that is based on a just Declaration of Independence. I would like to see if the UN came out and told the US that they could no longer build in Texas California because it is occupied land…
25. Quartet Approvals
Dan ,   Titusville   (03.19.10)
The Quartet need to immediately cease all building in their respective countries until reviewed and approved by the Israeli Kenesset. Jerusalem is our UNDIVIDED Capitol and the Quartet can go pound sand!!!
26. Hand over the world to radical Muslims+terror will stop
Sam ,   Canada   (03.19.10)
Muslims are at war with Jews,Christians, Hindus and everybody else you can think of including other Muslims. Begging and ordering the Jews to kiss Muslim butts is not going to make Muslim terror go away. The world should stop serving up Jews to try and appease terrorist ambitions. We have heard nothing of Arabs and Muslims accepting the Jewish state. All we hear about from the world is the need for Jewish concessions.
27. Quartet Decalres War Against God
Marcel ,   Florida   (03.19.10)
WHY DO the nations assemble with commotion [uproar and confusion of voices], and why do the people imagine (meditate upon and devise) an empty scheme?The kings of the earth take their places; the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and His Anointed One (the Messiah, the Christ). They say,Let us break Their bands [of restraint] asunder and cast Their cords [of control] from us. He Who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord has them in derision [and in supreme contempt He mocks them]He speaks to them in His deep anger and troubles (terrifies and confounds) them in His displeasure and fury... Psalm 2 http://averyheavystone.blogspot.com/2010/03/quartet-declares-war-against-god.html
28. Nour, like I said before
Eyal ,   USA   (03.19.10)
in your biggest dreams. It's like a record player playing again and again Nour. Just as soon as you think you have any hope, G-D interferes and you lose again. Same old losers. hehehehehe
29. 19 - never will
Eyal ,   USA   (03.19.10)
West Bank and Gaza will be again Israel forever. sorry loser.
30. The quartet
Sandy ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (03.19.10)
To: #13 Jeremy. Well said, I couldn't agree with you more. As for the quartet, the 3 stooges plus 1, they should go and pressure Mr. Abbas and his cohorts. They are NEVER even requested to give us anything. Don' t even recogize our sovereign State. Some peace partner, NOT!! To: #16 Adi. We are NOT deaf. Seems to me that you and others are. What do you and others not understand about Jerusalem being our undivided capital. AND we are building in neighbourhoods, not settlents. (Stupid word).
