31. #7, except that Israel didn't
Danny   (09.15.11)
The british referred the issue to the UN who came up with the partition plan. That partition plan was passed in a non-binding resolution in 1947 and the Arabs immediately rejected it. Israel was not accepted in the UN until 1949.
32. To n° 12
Marcela Araújo ,   Brazil   (09.15.11)
If he is re-elected, then we will have a nightmare scenario... :D
33. To n° 12
Marcela Araújo ,   Brazil   (09.15.11)
It was just a joke... And I was talking about north-american next elections... ... The guy is not my boss... ... By the way, I think you want to see blood today...
34. #30 Israel is the US foot in the ME
Cynthia ,   USA   (09.15.11)
And the US needs Israel. A US ally is an equal and need not grovel. Gates was threatened by Netanyahu's popularity with the US Senate and Congress.
35. Sheik @ 30
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (09.15.11)
Why waste time talking to an imposter?
36. This a Bold and good move
Palidov ,   Kiev   (09.15.11)
the world then will know where is palestine as if they do not know already and help them establish their free country No need for negotiation any more Israel will be looked as occupying country it will be kicked out the same way they kicked from lebanon with international twist
37. Confiirming official death of Oslo and Road Map, start of
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (09.15.11)
annexation of Judea and Samaria.
38. The end of the circus
AlbertoGA ,   USA   (09.15.11)
The Pals wil have a paper with nothing practical to gain. They have to learn.
39. To n° 12
Marcela Araújo ,   Brazil   (09.15.11)
We should talk openly... I can tell you everything about my life... :)
40. A ridiculous bid
Pavel Mares ,   Prague, Czech Rep.   (09.15.11)
Only an insane person could vote for a state based on such principles as 1) it must be "judenrein" and 2) its aim is to destroy his neighbour. I am glad our Prime Minister is not of that kind.
41. A 'Top "Palestinian" [sic] Diplomat'..?
Yitzhak ,   Israel   (09.15.11)
.. what's that, then? Is that like a unicorn? Or the tooth fairy? No, of course not. There is no such people as the 'Palestinians' and when even Israeli media call the Fakestinians by the name they misappropriated in 1967 (after losing a war in which they were willing aggressors), I despair for Israel.
42. addendum to #29 Penny-UNSC & UNGA
Shlomo Glickstein ,   US   (09.16.11)
the Pals could have just skip the UNSC and gone straight to UNGA. But the Pals want to embarrass the US by forcing it to veto its own policy, making it appear like a fool to the World. And if the Pals do garner 126 votes at the UNGA, it would show how out of step US and Israel is.
