61. The 1967 BORDER
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (05.19.11)
The border in 1967 was the same one in 1949. The border is the JORDAN RIVER! We can have one state there. Expel all illegal squatters from our lands.
62. To #27 John
Rachel ,   US   (05.19.11)
My question is why Netanyahu has that backstabbing traitor Barak in his government? He represent 5 seats, he's a nobody.
63. Obama sure is shaking up Israel's security.
Harry Wright ,   UK   (05.19.11)
He is pulverizing it from solid to liquid. That is blender security for you. Not even Viagra nor Levitra will help it stand.
64. Dear President Obama...
Andrew Riley   (05.19.11)
... as much as I appreciate and admire you, you have to realize that the crux of the matter here is JUSTICE, not just PEACE. In no way will we pursue "peace" at the cost of our character and national survival.
65. Obama Ceding to Terrorist Demands
David ,   USA   (05.19.11)
How interesting that this President, who showed his true colors with the first visit with "Netanyahu," now wants to sell the Jews "down the river" with indefensible borders. Thank you, so-called "President" Your Time is Finished. Impeach him!
66. Hysteria
Yosef Sapiro ,   Baltimore,US   (05.19.11)
Reading the reactions to President Obama's speech I am flabbergasted !Somehow or the other I believed that some Israeilis at least yearned for their forefathers' peace. Now I am convinced that starting with Netanyahu , and the rest of population in tow, do not want peace and they have been playing games with the Palestinians and the international community to grab as much land as possible, turning and keeping Palestinians destitute for life and forcing Israelis to live in permanent fear for the rest of their lives. In that case, so be it !!! I give up on you and siown you !
67. Palestinian responsibilities are seldom mentioned.
Stephen in New York   (05.19.11)
Palestinian responsibilities are seldom mentioned. What do the Palestinians have to do in order to make an agreement possible? Have the Palestinians no responsibility for their fate?
68. THE MAN FROM DEL MONTE
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (05.19.11)
SAID NO .Seriously ,hats off to Mr. Netanyahu ,a gentleman and a scholar and he has big balls.As for Livni ,she should go to hell.
69. #10 oooh real scarry! Get a life!

70. #58; glenn, FOR THE RECORD
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (05.19.11)
The real percentage wasn't 90% as you stated, but 78%. Still a lot, at least get facts right, it's not hard to look up. They still can complain if they feel they made a mistake, or do they need your permission Glenn?
71. response to our election
Donna ,   Fresno California   (05.20.11)
Too many American Jews voted for Obama, now with a slapped red face will they understand this man serves the muslims only! Get to you synigog and get God between you and your enemies. For He is alone is the Holy One! Those who bless her shall be blessed and those who curse her shall be cursed. May your faith win your land forever!Most here in the U.S. support you!!!
72. To #24
Mike Diaz ,   San Juan, USA   (05.20.11)
Wow "Harold of USA"!! Your english is impeccable, perfect. Where did you find those words like "stronge" and "illegimate", Maryam Woopsters? President Obama will repeat in 2012, whether you Arabs whine/whinge or not. Next time, use you real arabic name.
73. JON...Baltimore US
nomis101 ,   Hungary   (05.20.11)
B 4 yr. Pres. makes world order..let's see what he does to save his Nation.Printing money each day, floods, where is FEMA? Obama is a front puppet...he does not impress anyone in Europe, why should it be different in Israel. Puppets come & go but Israel is 4 Ever.
74. to Harold # 24 commentator
nomis101 ,   Hungary   (05.20.11)
Every Nation Deserves its Leaders!! Remember that as U go along...
75. #24
Jorge ,   Israel/USA/Argentina   (05.20.11)
Mr. Obama did not do much in the Senate. Mr. Obama dis not do much in the presidency. Who is going to re-elect him? The Afro-American community is upset with him, Arabs are upset with him. European Jewish are not occupying illegimate lands. The Arabs born in Kwait, Iraq and USA are actucally landing in Israel. We are in the borders 1967 as part of the Jewish Home said in 1922 when occurred the first Arab rejection. You are not going to give us orders to move from there. The whole world may want a second Jewish Holocaust, we JEWS do not want them to happen. Nobody cares what the other countries blame on us. We are strong on it. You have same atitute in the Haaretz where your comments are rejected. The best way for you is to accept ISRAE IS REAL
76. Is there no deal
Moshe ,   US   (05.20.11)
to undermine Israel while promoting her own agenda that Tzipi(giveaway)Livni is not in favor of?
77. #10 - Israel's been around 63 years, Palestine never
William ,   Israel   (05.20.11)
You do the math.
78. #25 - haha, or what?
William ,   Israel   (05.20.11)
What - more Intl lemmings will hate us? More Arabs will try to kill us? Nothing new here - whether 1920 or 2011. Yet, Israel stands strong and is firm on its own survival. We can make all the demands we want - because we live here, we've made the most efforts and concessions, and we have the power to protect ourselves....or hadn't you noticed?
79. #32 - never said "no to Palestine"
William ,   Israel   (05.20.11)
only no to 1967 borders which are indefensible, which UNR242 also underscores. Israel wants peace and an immediate end to aggressions. You've had your chance many times over 6 decades and rejected them all. no offense, but your ilk are not exactly the most trustworthy nor do they adhere to agreements they sign.
80. #33 - perhaps you missed speech by Abbas, Haniyeh
William ,   Israel   (05.20.11)
Haniyeh said they seek the destruction of Israel no matter what agreements are made - and Hamas is now part of the govt. Abbas said even if 1967 lines are promised, including Jewish holy sites in Jerusalem, unless 5 million "refugees" can return to Israel, no aggressions will end. We're not as dumb as you think.
81. Reply that Israel is not afraid
D. Espo ,   Fresno usa   (05.20.11)
Then God is with them!
82. Obama Plan and Saudi Peace Plan Illegal
D.Espo ,   Fresno usa   (05.20.11)
Everything that this man says and does is illegal. Pray Israel and God will meet you with the convenant.
83. Obama is Muslim thinking no History
D. Espo ,   Fresno usa   (05.20.11)
Obama is here illegally from Kenya he does not act or think like an American. Most here are sorry!
84. Palistinian was a name given to all who lived in Palistine
D.Espo ,   fresno usa   (05.20.11)
The English for the lack of knowing the differences of tribes and people called all people of Palestine Palestinians. That was Jew and Muslim alike. The palistinian can cross those borders and rest in Peace. May God Bless Israel!!!
85. Farrachan Rev Wright =Muslim
D. Espo ,   Fresno usa   (05.20.11)
We as a Christian Nation reject this man he is not of this country!
86. you cannot trust them
D. Espo ,   Fresno usa   (05.20.11)
Muslim-Taqiia,Sharia,Quiba unless you understand these terms you do not understand you enemy. He will lie till he gets you close enough to cut off your head. Peace is the word of God. Muslims do not understand God. They worship Baal. The angel that appeared to Mohammed was the fallen one.
87. Only if...
Jerry ,   Texas, USA   (05.20.11)
If I were Netanyahu, I would demand that the USA return to it's 1845 borders before agreeing to negotiations with Obama. Just goes to show you how ignorant Obama (and anyone) is to suggest that Israel go back to '67 borders. Stand firm Israel! Stand firm Netanyahu!
88. # 10
Moshe ,   US   (05.20.11)
Let's say you and I are neighbors living next door to each other in relative quiet. One day for no apparent reason I begin to encroach on your property by shooting projectiles at you to force you to leave.so I can take your property. In the process I maim and kill your relatives. But you are bigger and better armed than I...and so you defeat me and force me to leave. I then insist that you give me back what was mine to be fair and as compensation for what you did to me. Do you agree that you should return my property?
89. Obama and Salma like most Arabs
Hottie Hebrew   (05.20.11)
Will never relent until Islam eventually conquers the entire world starting with Israel. You got to figure someone like Obama who comes from a Muslim background will only lend his sympathy to the Arabs. A lot of Muslims envision a world dominated by Shariah. Kol Hakavod to Bibi for standing up to America's first black Muslim president. I give him full props for that. Israel is for our keepings.She was promised to us by G-d who made a covenant with our forefathers.Nowhere was Ismael included in that treaty. Who would have thought that a tiny little country built on nothing like Israel would victoriously triumph the mighty Arabians? But we did.We fought nobly and honorably and we earned our country.The Arabs are at fault for being in the situation they are in for losing our battles.Next time fight like a warrior and not like a coward who resorts to suicide bombings and shooting kasaam rockets into our schools. Remember : throughout history, nations have risen and fallen but the Jew will always remain :-)
90. The Allon Plan or Jordan is Palestine
Noah Lev ,   HollywoodUSA   (05.20.11)
Israel can swap land, using the 67 ceae fire lines as step 1 Per Bush's guidelines, the major settlements would be annexed by Israel, in exchange for land swaps. Isnt this what Obama is saying? Both sides are talking at one another it appears. Bibi's response was genunine..ynet to the 67 lines as permanent borders, w/o considering Israel's security ( as result of the 10 wars they have fought). The Nakba protest should be reinforcing adjusted borders. Look its also about the Golan, militarization, open borders, return to Israel of Arabs who left in 48 and their offspring, security in the Jordan Valley. Hamas has already said the 67 bordrs dictate and right of return ( Abbas demand). So what is this all about? The Allon Plan, (autonomy for the W.Bk and Gaza Strip) under Israeli security control..is still out there, with adjustments for Jerusalem. Can there ever be peace..short of another war to change the facts, I doubt it. The Arabs have not forgotten the 48 War and never will. Its really simple to understand from both sides. Folks, some problems are simply not able to be resolved. Lets not forget that Jordan IS the real Palestine (British Mandate).
