There was a ten month freeze on building that your side insisted upon in order to have peace talks in the first place. Which I might add you flittered away until time for the freeze to end then you sat down at the table. Now you demand another 3 or 4 months. When pigs fly!
2. Fatah

Go a head end the talks. As much as I would like to see peace, these talks are a waist of time and money. The rulers of Fatah aren't capable of ruling themselves let alone make peace and if they do sure won't abide by the treaty.
3. Time for Israel to stand for something
Marcel ,   Florida   (09.27.10)
And stop falling for this counterfeit peace. The arabs only want to dismantle Israel piece by peace with the help of the US,UN,EU. Its' always Israel targeted to deliver never the Arabs. It's time Israel stopped playing this lose,lose game and gave the Palestinians reason to cry for their intransegance and murderous hostility towards the Jewish state. It's time that Israel shows the international community how to stand up against Islam. They need lessons real,real bad and soon
4. AND IF THE FREEZE IS EXTENDED FOR A FEW MONTHS WHAT THEN?
stude ham   (09.27.10)
more demands that israel not only halt all further constructions but also pull back to unknown borders and aslo give up jerusalem and golan and so on and so forth. the arabs do not want israel to exist. the world does not welcome the jewish people. there is only stupidity in the premise that we must stop building in the lands seized from us by the foreign invaders. BUILD ISRAEL BUILD! WE NEED THE SPACE IN WHICVH TO LIVE!
5. Build Israel Build all over Israel
Rachel ,   USA   (09.28.10)
Where would we live if you don't make room for us Jews? Where would our families, women and children live if not for these buildings? No one like us, because of Arab propaganda, so we must live in Israel our ancient home. Arabs have 58 arab countries to live in, we Jews have only one Israel.
6. What was taken by force will not be taken back but by force
Hanny ,   6 of October, Egypt   (09.28.10)
7. A few more days? what's the difference?
Rachel ,   USA   (09.28.10)
No concession on Israel's part. Israel gave a lot, Arabs did not make any concession, Jerusalem is the capital of Israel the Jewish State, Judea and Samaria will always belong to the Jews. It is time for arabs to understand it if they want to live in peace.
8. Time for Fatah to make some concessions
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (09.28.10)
Oh they won't? They can't? Why even talk with them?
9. freeze lift
arnon ,   israel   (09.28.10)
Without the help of the world there would not have been an Israel. To see ourselves as great fighters who stand alone against the evil Islam of the world is a fantasy that should be dismissed before Israel and its people pay the price. The belief that we are some sort of chosen people may well lead us to our doom. We are a people, like any other, with a certain right to a country, not more and not less than the palestinians who too hold such a right. And if we do not respect this fact and the suffering that is their lot who are we to expect respect from other countries. The lift of the freeze is a shame, it is an act of a bully. From victims we have become bullies. These are not the ideals I have been brought up with, this is not the zioinism i have been raised to believe. It is this expression of zionism which gives it its bad name and makes me ashamed of being a zionist. Brothers, holders of faith, do not give up your values, criticise them, do not hold them blindly, it is long since an angel came down and told someone to stop a command of god (Abraham and Izack) you must do it yourselves!! May God be with you and reason lead you.
10. The ONLY thing Palestinians are good at
Arie ,   BaGolan   (09.28.10)
Threats!
11. Lieberman is correct
Eyal ,   NYC USA   (09.28.10)
The Arabs are only interested in staying victims forever and throwing Jews out of the middle east. Peace for them is us in Pieces.
12. Let abbas negotiate with the settlers for a new freeze.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (09.28.10)
He might learn how hard negotiation really is when you have real Jews in the room.
13. To, "Fateh and U.S".:Why "0"for"10" months?
Roland Seener ,   London England   (09.28.10)
14. Peace with Arabs means the destruction
Vardina   (09.28.10)
of Israel. They want all west bank territories back "clean of Jews" as Abu mazen declared, then return the so called "refugees" (most of them dead by now, yet they have had numerous offsprings) whose task would be the destruction of Israel from the inside. This is the Pasestinian "peace" plan. The world is pressuring Israel as a matter of tradition. They can always unite easily for the unholy cause of liquidating Jews. This time it is not going to work as easily as in WW2.
15. As usual...
Chatich   (09.28.10)
Lieberman is correct, me'ah ahuz. This guy gets it and knows how to say what needs to be said, straight up.
16. construction freeze in West Bank
RC ,   USA   (09.28.10)
What is going on now reminds me of what happened then in the Bible; Nehemiah chapter 2 verse 18-20 And I informed them of the hand of my Elohim which had been good upon me, and also of the sovereign’s words he had spoken to me. And they said, “Let us rise up and we shall build.” So they made their hands strong for good. But when Sanballat the Ḥoronite heard, and Tobiyah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arab, they mocked us and despised us, and said, “What is this you are doing? Are you rebelling against the sovereign?” And I answered them, and said to them, “The Elohim of the heavens, He shall bless us and let us, His servants, rise and build, but you have no portion or right or remembrance in Yerushalayim.”
17. Foolish Israel should never have agreed to talks
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (09.28.10)
Aside from the foolishness of negotiating with Pals who couldn't sign a peace treaty if they wanted to, Bibi made a huge tactical mistake by agreeing to pre-conditions. Israel was the only side that had to meet conditions (the freeze) for the talks. Bibi made no demands of the Pals to freeze terrorist attacks, and Israel should have immediately pulled out of the talks when Palestinian terrorists killed 4 Israeli civilians just after the talks started. Once again, the Israelis snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Bibi could have shown the world how weak the Palestinians are, and how ridiculous the double standard is. The result is that building houses is the cause of the talks collapsing, while killing innocent civilians was not. Stupid, stupid government we have.
18. Belligerent Israelis!
Arra Phat ,   Gehenna   (09.28.10)
Why don't the Israelis simply give up the occupied territories they stole in 1967? That is all the PLO has been asking for...since our founding in 1964!
19. # 18 enough of wars Palestine will be free
Peace for all   (09.28.10)
Palestinians want peace but any thing less than the 1967 borders will mean that real war will have to solve things once and for all. The PLO was founded because of the Zionists regime, the 2002 peace plan with 57 Islamic/Arabic states will give Israelis from Russia, Maldova or Ethiopia etc, to come from all over the world just to have a place to stay in for the peace any way not war to come at all.
