31. #16 Avramele. Are you dumb, suicidal or both?
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
#16 Avramele. You want the most anti-Israel U.S. President in history to be reelected. You want Obama to harm Israel. You want Israel's waist to be trimmed to a suicidal 9 miles. Are you dumb, suicidal or both?
32. #31
avramele   (09.27.12)
No am just the same 24/7 zionist I have been my whole life. I don!t challenge your sincerity so please don,t challenge mine. Argue ideas and facts not personal qualities.
33. Strategy
Adam Neira ,   Paris, France   (09.27.12)
Posted elsewhere today..."A war in which the U.S. is involved would probably end much more quickly and less unpredictably, seeing as the U.S. military is huge in comparison to Iran's.." Any "genius' strategist out there who states that it is ok if 500 Israelis, 5000 American Servicemen/women and 500,000 Iranians die in a "little" war is insane. I repeat...There is an optimal solution to the Iran/West imboglio. The divine timetable will trump all others. As Napoleon said..."Strategy is the art of using time and space well." Take note all...G-d is the master strategist par excellence.
34. NOT ONE WORD out of Abbas' mouth is the truth... it is
But I BLAME ,   BIBI   (09.27.12)
intended to deceive, incite and elicit sympathy from people who don't know the TRUTH. But I BLAME BIBI for not telling the world the TRUTH. For not spelling out the lies and not adopting the Levy Report and telling the people that there is NO OCCUPATION... These are the lies (spell them out), this is the true history: Arabs left willingly, there is no apartheid etc etc etc. But for some reason Bibi just doesn't get it. He doesn't understand that this is HIS RESPONSIBILITY.
35. "The One" better be listening
BH ,   Iowa   (09.27.12)
BHO should be listening to how a real leader responds to a threat. A leader doesn't apologize when attacked. A leader doesn't appease. A leader doesn't go on David Letterman and The View instead of meeting world leaders. A leader attends his security briefs. After four years of on the job training, the celebrity has nothing to show but failure.
36. The Grand Question, #27
Cameron ,   USA   (09.27.12)
A true leap into the unknown this move.
37. To: No. 27
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.27.12)
Yes to both. I remind you that unlike the idiot in the White House, Prime Minister Netanyahu's bite is much, much worse than his bark.
38. #2 Gregg, you are the worst Israeli...thats
mark ,   is/usa   (09.27.12)
if you are a jewish Israeli. DO you really think most of the arabs that live in Israel as Israelis, would want a pali government over them...NO WAY. BUt would love to give them all back to Jordan, from wench they came.
39. #30 Adam
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (09.27.12)
It is my name, what would you have me do change it to suit your sensibilities? I ensure that where I live is put up with my posts, if you do not agree with what I ssubmit for publication on this moderated forum, feel free not to read my posts
40. Was disappointed that
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (09.27.12)
Wily Coyote didn't jump out from behind Netanyahu and represent the danger of Iran having nuclear weapons through the medium of dance. My people are in danger, this is true, but the danger is not from Iran.
41. #2 is a fake Israeli !!
American ,   Usa   (09.27.12)
Your not fooling anyone with your low life comment it is obvious your a ertzah your in the wrong forum aljazeera is more in line with the thrash comment you posted!!!
42. Why do people believe all the lies from Abbas???? Because
Estee ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
he speaks to people with words that elicit a visceral reaction becuase that is how to get them to react. Bibi doesn't understand this. They also buy it because Bibi never spends one minute to deny or counter what Abbas says. THAT is exactly why the world believes there is an occupation... that "Palestinians" are living in hell because of the Jews... yada yada yada. A lie said often enough and not corrected becomes the "truth". And now the TRUTH is unbelievable.
43. Why not one word about how Iran will directly threaten USA?
Nora ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
Bibi needs to hire an American PR firm to write his speeches and stop depending on Sarah. Get someone who knows how do do it... like Abbas does. This is not class B Broadway.
44. Isreal
mike ,   Fremont, IN   (09.27.12)
Andy and Sarah, the majority of the people in the United States care about the interests of the United States. You cannot be USA/Israel - pick one because our interests are not the same. Maybe Israel and Iran should both open their doors to weapons inspectors and the entire region can be nuclear free.
45. To: No. 40
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.27.12)
Exactly who are your "people?" Trolls? You are certainly no Jew. All you ever do is bitch and moan and complain about Israel. Don't like the place? Leave. I'm sure you can find something affordable and more in line with your questionable political sensibilities in Ramallah. Good riddance!
46. bibi made me laugh
bob   (09.27.12)
he actually drew a red line physically on a piece of paper but he didn't set a red line deadline. Americans were probably very afraid when he said "I'm coming to the UN to draw a red line", he didn't lie, he actually did, lol... but he really didn't , he asked the world to draw one.
47. Red Line
Harold ,   USA   (09.27.12)
Netanyahu himself has to set the clear Red Line and nobody else. That is his problem and no one else.
48. BB's speech
Lorraine Melzer ,   Ramat Hasharon Israe   (09.27.12)
AS the late president Reagan would have commented on BB's speech""Oh There he goes again!""
49. # 40
Birdi ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
''My people are in danger" Stop pretending to be Jewish. You & Greg of Haifa are both haters who hide behind your screens. Pathetic.
50. #17 Harold
Chaim ,   Arad   (09.27.12)
Harold, you are sitting on occupied land. Go study your US history. Especially the part about dragging the Cherokee Indians in the "Trail of Tears." By the way, also look up how your nation overthrew the Monarch of Hawaii. Wow, I could go on and on. But for now, I will just remind you to learn how to spell. That should be challenging enough.
51. Great speech Bibi proud too be Israeli.
Dyslexic ..... ,   Israel...   (09.27.12)
52. I was cheering for a dramatic speech from BiBi
David ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
The last big UN address he made was brilliant This time, to stand there with a childish cartoon of a bomb to try and convince the world community, seemed rather patronizing and arrogant. Hey I guess with Yom Kippur he was strapped for time to make a truly powerful speech. Either way, I still support him because he is deffinately trying by whatever means possible to ensure the safety of our country. We just have to face the fact that we are forever alone in this fight because never will there be those willing to spill their own blood for the sake of ours. Neither will there ever be those willing to even pay for it economically - i.e to absorb the higher price of oil.
53. at #4 - the difference
Rube Vogel ,   Jerusalem   (09.27.12)
It is very equitable of you to push your nukes-for-all agenda. Personally, I think there should be a sanity requirement (i.e. Israel yes, Iran no) - but hell , let's have it your way - armegeddon might be fun...
54. #45 'Sarah B'
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (09.27.12)
You deny me my heritage because you disagree with me politically. That is fair enough, but I wasn't aware that there were right and wrong types of Jews. And that 'Sarah B' was the final arbiter of who is and who isn't a Jew. You have ideas above your station 'lady'
55. #49 Birdl or should I say 'Sarah B'
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (09.27.12)
I am Jewish, you might not like that, but I don't care. I do care though about my people, and they are in danger, and that danger does not come from Iran. You can disagree with me politically, as is your right in a democracy. But I would like to see your credentials which makes you an arbiter of who can call themselves Jewish and who cannot. Personally i don't believe that someone with so much hate can be Jewish. It goes against evert tenat of the Torah and Judaism
56. To: No. 44
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.27.12)
I have dual citizenship. I don't have to choose -- at least not yet. Moreover, United States interests and Israeli interests are very much the same -- you're just too poorly informed to realize. For heaven's sake -- you cannot even spell "Israel" correctly!
57. To: Estee at No. 42
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.27.12)
One can also make the argument that Netanyahu should not stoop to the level of an unrepentant terrorist. To counter his statements is to acknowledge that Abbas has something of imporatance to say. He doesn't. So Netanyahu is correct in ignoring him, much the way one ignores a tantrum-throwing child who stamps his foot and threatens to hold his breath until he turns blue.
58. #48
Logic ,   Israel   (09.27.12)
Reagan supported Iraq against Iran in the early 1980s. Inconvienient fact, I know.
59. Acme Bomb Design
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (09.27.12)
Wiley Coyote's bomb design is unimpressive.
60. # 1 Sarah B
sid ,   israel   (09.27.12)
Why do you have to be always insulting in your comments.
