He is completely dominated by Ehud Barak, he will destroy Likud, and he will lose next elections. He believes he can manage to move everything from under the table, but he'll get a big surprise!

The more, the fairer.
3. This Land Is My Land...
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (11.07.11)
Tearing down Jewish homes in Israel undermines our legitimacy on this land. Bad move for the Government. It sends the wrong signal. Jews have every right to build anywhere they wish in the Land of Israel regardless of Arab outcry. This Land was given by the Almighty to the Jews to occupy and develop. It is ours.
4. Legally !! ya right
NadMan ,   Palestine   (11.07.11)
your gun is your law, how can't it be legally.
5. It won't help
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (11.07.11)
Netanyahu thinks the Likud is stupid. A tiny minority of villages were inadvertently built on Arab-owned land. Legally, in such cases the owner receives compensation (alternative land or money). Only in this specific case of Jews is Netanyahu ordering destruction. Most villages he wants to destroy are built on public land allocated to the Jews, some even on land owned by Jews. Recently, Beinish made a new and illegal decision, that she will consider all land to be privately owned by Arabs, even when no Arab comes forward to make this allegation. This is a direct attack on the rule of law, governance and democracy. Netanyahu has chosen to sacrifice democracy and follow Beinish's outrageous decision. But it won't help. The Right will remember Netanyahu as a pathetic loser. The Left will always hate his guts and mock his wife for beating servants, stealing cutlery or whatever.
6. Remember Gush Katif. If Bibi allows Jewish homes to be
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (11.07.11)
stolen, Hashem should give him the same fate as sharon.

Ahron ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (11.07.11)
Interesting, One is reminded of The Trail of Tears brought on by Andrew Jackson.
8. Once Again People are targeting the wrong individuals
Dan S.   (11.07.11)
The problem is the High Court, plain and simple. The next time that circus is set to rule on a similar law, send armed troops into the courtroom to remind them who they serve and how they need to rule. In these types of situations, this is the only way to gets things done. Action, not talk. Survival of the State is the survival of all Jews, and both take precedence over democratic experiments.
9. Curuption
Joe Tango ,   USA   (11.07.11)
Settlement Blocs are not enough for secure borders and to keep our religious heritage sites. Israel needs to annex area B and C at the very least. The Settlement movement needs to hire a team of investigators to investigate politicians in Israel as well as court officials to see if there are any corruption to force Israel back to the 67 borders. 60 minutes had a very compelling report last night on lobbying and corruption in the United States, if it is prevalent here then in Israel it is probably worse. If any evidence is found they should be exposed and imprisoned. It is not beyond the imagination that there could be politicians and court officials both in and out of the current government that are working for foreign governments.
10. What's legal?
Rachel ,   US   (11.07.11)
Netanyahu just released 1000 terrorists of his own free will who were convicted. Who is he to talk about legal?
11. Right wing will no longer vote Likud if this action comes to
Ron ,   Tel Aviv   (11.07.11)
pass. You should be stopping the 200 million from paying for abbas' mafia and his promise to build every re;eased terrorist a new home. You are a fool! We didn't vote the left in to the knesset we voted the right in, but you are doing things leftists never did. Get a grip Bibi, or you will lose yours politically.
12. Unite to demand unrestricted Judea/Samaria building.
Chaim ,   Israel   (11.07.11)
It is way past time to put an end to the obscenity of Jewish homes being destroyed solely because they are owned by Jews. This disgusting and blatant racism must end forever. Let all of Patriotic Israel unite and demand, without compromise, unrestricted Jewish building throughout all of Judea and Samaria.
13. Stop the Cruelty to Jews for Living In the Jewish Homeland!
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (11.07.11)
Jews must have the HUMAN RIGHT to live in the BIBLICAL Jewish homeland! All that Muslims have to do is to LIE and CLAIM that JEWISH land belongs to Muslims. Pro-Islam, anti-Jew Israeli leaders, courts and police submit and bow low to Islam/US and destroy the homes of hated Jewish infidels in BIBLICAL Judea and Samaria. Rendering Jews homeless. Jews and their children are often beaten by cruel Israeli Yassam police and even jailed. Shame on you PM Netanyahu for your cruelty and inhumanity to Jews! Jews must have the HUMAN RIGHT to live in the BIBLICAL Holy Land!
14. To: Bibi, WTF?????
Gideon Reader   (11.07.11)
Excuse me? Don't, as in do NOT, build on private land? Is this some kind of odd local mishagas, that only local coolies understand? Jews in Jedea (catchy name that) and the Shomron, should only build on public land at the whim and benign approval of the state? How freaking facist. Or maybe more blatantly Bolshievik. Either way, it appears that Israel is seeking a source for some nice BROWN fabric doer it's dictatorial class. If you own private land and have a deed or proof of ownership for that bit of dirt, why the F---, should you not build on it if you want to? And who is the PM, or any other polititurd to tell you not to, other than if there are some underlying environmental problems that would cause illness of worse. But for some weird, crass political entres....? Stuff that where the Yarden does not flow.
15. Don't build on private land?
Kayla ,   Florida   (11.07.11)
Read our Torah, Bibi. Hashem gave us Israel. It is our land--AND WE MUST BUILD ON IT,SECURE IT, and HONOR AND RESPECT HASHEM--not the other nations.
16. Issue's Effecting The Status Quo
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim   (11.08.11)
B"H A State that sends pogrom brigades on its Jews on the Land of Israel can hardly be defined as "Jewish".
17. Bebe as hamlet
meyer ,   israel   (11.08.11)
to destroy or not to destroy..that is the question. .
18. Banish "private land"...?
RK ,   Israel   (11.08.11)
Give me a break
19. If the Arabs would have to prove ownership
Zev ,   Israel   (11.08.11)
then they should be compensated. Claiming something is yours without proof is the way of the Arabs and their lefty friends. If the homes are destroyed after so many years then Israel will lose its claim to all of the areas like Ramat Aviv where a lot of these lefties live on "privately owned" Arab land. Will their homes also be destroyed??
20. #19 If Arabs have to prove ownership, settlers have also to
