61. Inventing new news
Yael Schlichting ,   Raubling - Germany   (09.15.11)
NYT is not exactly known for being Israel-friendly. During these times, it's not Netanyahu's performance as MP that is critical. It's the weird circumstances in the surrounding countries, where leaders avoid being bashed by their own people by pointing at Israel and blame Jews for being guilty for the conditions in Arab cleptocracies and theocracies. Being bored by savage Arabs and Turks and having no better news, no earthquake, no new war..... Okay, but famin in Somalia is obviously not sexy enough, because it appeals to the individual sense of guilt of the reader..... No! No! Netanyahu is a great victim. Everybody is interested and particularly the Jewish minority in NY should be interested in that and buy the NYT. So let's bash Bibi.
62. Dark forces undermining Israel
Brod ,   USA   (09.15.11)
Leftism/Appeasers and the belligerent, violent, fanatical Islamist-Jihadists are hellbent in undermining Israel. They continue to crusade against Israel. They manipulate the ascendancy of fanatical Islamist-Jihadist forces in the region to threaten Israel's existence. This Hitlerian move has only goal that is specified in the Charter, Map and School Textbooks of Hamas and the PA, and that is, the destruction of Israel. Israel and the Judeo-Christian world must wake up to this new reality and the man who conned his way to the WH.
63. #10 - isn't that the interest of ALL politicians?
William ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
Abbas is out to line his pockets and keep his head. Nasrallah and Haniyeh are out to keep a hold on their fiefdoms, with the power and money it brings. Olmert, Livni, Barak, and Peretz are out to build their political career, by gaining notoriety in other countries almost as if they planned to become UN emissaries in the future. Leftist NGOs like Peace Now, ACRI, and ISM spend more time running towards passionate causes, while ignoring justice, even if it adversely affects their own constituents, in order to gain the PR and donations they need to survive. UNWRA is a poster-child for this approach. Diplomats from UN member countries admitted they were fearful of a backlash from Arab countries if they vote against the UN State bid by the PA, indicating their interests are self-preservation. So...what's your point?
64. #12 - if journalists from NYT had an open-mind
William ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
their conscious would force them to leave to another place.
65. But I've never heard the NYT accuse...
William ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
Mugabe of isolated Zimbabwe Chavez isolating Venezuela A'jad isolating Iran Gaddafi isolating Libya Kim jong-Il isolated North Korea Castro isolating Cuba... of course, these are all darling dictators of the Left, and friends of NYT. So in their cases, it's really the "ugliness of capitalism and racism" that would isolate them, and not their own actions.
66. #46 - you sure you're not referring to the PA?
William ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
They are, after all, existing solely on global handouts based on extortion, either directly or indirectly through their proxies who hold the keys to global economies through their black, gooey commodity under the desert sands. If the world did fund UNWRA after 5 years, the entire region would be at peace. Bet the NYT didn't cover that factual tidbit which several well-known psychologists mentioned in articles in WSJ last year.
67. #51 - Iran has oil
William ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
They could wipe out entire races and the West would hardly notice while they step up to the feeding trough.
68. NYT is right. Netanyahu is purposely dismantling Oslo.
Jake ,   USA   (09.15.11)
Proud Jews the world-over are proud of Netanyahu for successfully sabotaging the treacherous Oslo accords. The Land of Israel is not a commodity with a price-tag. It is OUR land and always will be.
69. NYT, if you are trying to improve circulation this is
leo ,   usa   (09.15.11)
not the way to do it. Not in US anyway.
70. HE IS ISOLATING ISRAEL
RC ,   USA NY   (09.15.11)
71. NO HE IS NOT
USA NY   (09.15.11)
72. Wearied by the Lies
Intercessor ,   UK   (09.15.11)
Not only did Blair not understand the middle east - The Telegraph does not, the Govt does not and the arab leftists in our Uni's get too much attention for an insignificant majority. The threatened arrest of Israelis is appalling given their code of behaviour against that of their arab and muslim counterparts. Those who pray for Israel apologise for those who know no better. shalom
73. to Justin no 44
Salma, ,   Palestine   (09.16.11)
Even we Palestinians know that Jews are not pagans and we don't hate Jews. You are not a true Christian and don't know your own teachings.
74. to Rosie at no 52
john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (09.16.11)
Your post is spot on.Keep it up.
75. Hey ... news flash!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.16.11)
It is not the job of Israel to keep the American "president" from embarrassing himself. Every time the American "president" opens his mouth, he embarrasses himself. Not Israel's fault .... next time, the American people need to find a better president. Duh!
76. NYT= LIberal and Hates A Strong Israel
Dan ,   USA   (09.16.11)
...but would love a defeated Israel.
77. To: No. 31
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.16.11)
In case you haven't noticed, it is the ersatz "Palestinians" who are stonewalling. All they have done is demand, demand, demand. Six-time losers and perpetrators of seven decades of terror do not have the right to demand anything. It's called "unconditional surrender." Remember? Like the "unconditional surrender" the Allies required of Germany. Like the "unconditional surrender" the United States demanded of Japan. Why should a different set of rules apply to Israel -- victor in six wars started by the Arabs?
78. #31 - the US has already...
William ,   Israel   (09.16.11)
but the US usually pressures Israel to adhere to the timetable while, under pressure of the EU and Arabs, the "Palestinians" are allowed to slide from their obligations. Set a timetable, with set milestones and carrots / sticks, and that's it. I agree. It's time to stop this sliding once and for all. And for the first milestone, Arabs can begin ending their State-sponsored racism and hate education system against Jews, in order to prepare their population for eventual peace. And the memorandum of understanding should state absolutely that these negotiations bring a final end to the war, with NO more demands by either side, and the two States live together in peaceful coexistence. Without that, there is no guarantee the Arabs won't continue the war to destroy Israel, and that's unacceptable.
79. NY Times an excellent reverse barometer.
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.16.11)
Whatever the NY Times says about Israel; you can virtually bet the opposite is true. The NY Times is an excellent reverse barometer. The Times believes Israel should support Obama and go against our true Republican friends. This is plain crazy. Obama is the most hostile U.S. President Israel has ever faced. And likely the most imcompetent president America has ever had. Which is why Obama is losing Obama recently lost a New York City District that has been Democrat for 93 years! Which is why there is no longer a safe District in the entire U.S.A. for the Obama Democrats.
80. #31. Obama is a walking disater.
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.16.11)
#31. The vast majority of Americans oppose creating a new terror state in the heart of Israel. Obama wants to create this abomination but he, thankfully, has no power to do anything. We are talking about a Democratic President who loses elections in districts Democrats have held for decades such as Massachusetts and New York. Democrats held New York District 9 for 93 years till Obama lost it. Obama is a walking disaster.
81. NY Times and its War Crimes
Eric R. ,   USA   (09.17.11)
The NY Times covered up the genocides of Hitler, Stalin and Mao, even though they knew of all them. It is the paper of genocide, with oceans of blood on their hands. They are evil, sick and morally depraved. And Bibi knows it.
82. to Sue 5
john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (09.17.11)
Who does.
83. NYT the voice of Leftism
Brod ,   USA   (09.17.11)
Leftism is flowing with the dark forces in crusading against Israel. They should stop trying to play god on Israel. They need to know the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Bible, History and Biblical Archaeology to know the Land of Israel as GOD-GIVEN and GOD-RESTORED to the Jewish Nation. Why should they meddle in Israel's internal affairs and help the dark forces usurp the Land of Israel?
84. New York Times....tick...tick...tick
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (09.18.11)
It's time is nearly over......as soon as the idiot in the White House....their little minion.....is thrown out of the White House... with all the other muslim carpet baggers. Maybe the New York Times ought to concentrate on the United States giving all the Indian Tribes their land back.
