Yes we have heard this befor. 2 states living side by side. Imagine the possibilities. The offers have been made but refused, multiple times. They will never give up the "right of return". Let's face it there is no key to unlock this conflict.

and ride into the sunset. You've done enough harm.

Time bombs. Lets bring some more in and import the problem properly.

Olmert was the greatest robber PM. He is talking now!!!! he is lucky he is not yet in jail. It is amazing that at this difficult time for Israel and the Jewish people is is critical of the gov't!!! He is the PM that stole people's money, brought bridges, skyskrapers and trains to Jerusalem in order to line his pockets and was not concerned with what was best for the city and the citizens of the city. Just stop giving your stupid opinion.

Olmert is the dumbest idiot in history. He was going to put the Wailing wall under joint control, which included the racist Saudis who claim Jews drink the blood of Christians to make Matza. Olmert was going to put the PA also in control of the Wailing Wall, who said they would turn the Wailing Wall into an Arab neighborhood. Read Palmediawatch for that. Go Away Olmert, we dont want appeasers likes you.

It should be noted, Olmert offered to Abbas to transfer control of these Jewish holy places including the Wailing Wall to an "international body" consisting of Saudi Arabia, the Palestinians, the US, Israel, and a couple of others. Thus the Jewish presence and access would be "guaranteed" by others, not Israel. Now, as you know, the Muslims now claim the Western Wall is a MUSLIM holy place called "Al-Buraq Square" and so they would demand the right to pray there as well, and thus restricting Jewish rights there. Only a fool like Olmert caught want this. Netanyahu is the Prime Minster for the Jews, while Olmert is the PM for the Arabs.

... one needs a viable peace partner. The ersatz "Palestinians" do not constitute a viable peace partner. The past seven decades have taught us that.

The peace that Israel offers is living side by side in peace. The 'peace' of the PA/Hamas Islamist-Jihadists is the destruction of Israel. So, Olmert's peace dream cannot materialize. He needs to know that the 'peace' of the dark forces means the destruction of Israel. Is this what he wants?

it's easy to give advice when you are not PM. the advice you can give is how to deal with money and wealthy people. you did very well.......

and takes the same platform as Livni the failure. Give more land for peace, ignore the facts that it never worked, and blame everything on the current Rightist govt. Problem is, Olmert. You gave the "Palestinians" several generous offers and they still refused it because it left the door open to Israel existing tomorrow. Too bad the likes of Olmert and Livni don't see the "Palestinians" stance as the fundamental problem.

Israel has to prove it wants peace?! israel is seeking peace not to prove to other nations it is peace seeking. Israel wants peace so israelis can live normally. It is Israel's self interest. You can't rush peace and you can't pretend to have peace. Peace will come the moment hasn't not.

And I heard you were prime minister once. People put you down as architect of withdrawal from GAZA Have you not learned anything? There can only be a truce. For that we need to be strong so they can't break it.

That most of you believe your own hasbara crap ,...

Another one with identity syndrom ,...

Olmert outlined the "parameters" of peace with the Arabs. Well, he offered them exactly this plan but the "moderate" Abbas never responded. Why then is Olmert attacking Bibi for not making peace, when his "partner" Abbas refused this same offer? Olmert knows very well that the Arabs will not compromise on their maximalist demands which exceed anything that any Israeli government can offer them. Abbas will not sign any agreement with Israel, so why bother to even try? The window of opportunity is not here; it will open only when the Arabs accept Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state. This time is, unfortunately, in the distant future.

why then waited six decade

olmert is criminal and have not right to talk on behalf of israeli public

150 idf soldiers are dead because of olmert's incompetence inthat he didn't know what it meant to send land forces en masse in a surprise backmove onthe south after softening and suppressing the resistance. haaretz and ynet sanitized olmert to the public during the election and early afterwards, hid exactly what his idf injury that moveed him to press officer and validated his peace offers later while israel was being slammed with missiles and bombings. For that I tell all three to go to hell. Olmert does everything for himself and no one else. His reoffering of peace is meant to sway the judge who is presiding to keep him out of jail. It won't work. The judge and legal system does not want to send olmert to jail. But the misdeeds are so grievous in my opinion, they will have to send him to jail and not for a short time. And that will finally punish this ogre who sold out israel.

Yea split, and you still believe the laughable Pallywood Kool-Aid. The funny thing IS, you never answer with facts or argue, just the ridiculous Hasbara accusation, and then nothing. Literally "Hasbara" means, in Hebrew...used as a noun..."explanation". But we can't have that, even an explanation of SELF defense, is forbidden by the anti-Israel writer. Israel shouldn't have the right to self defense, whether in writing or using its military, right?
