Is this guy for real, or living in a fantasy world? Try talking to Hamas, the leaders of the people who are now dancing in their streets and handing out sweets, because Israelis were blown apart in a bus bomb in Tel Aviv? No thanks, I'd rather not.

ONCE , lived in Gaza? Once upon a time, there lived in Gaza many more palestinians, of all creeds and views, social, ideological and political. In 2005, those wicked zionists decided to pick up their toys and leave Gaza, leaving us to rule, live and rebuild our lives on our loved piece of land. And then, armed hoodlum of different extreme belifs (Hamas, Gihad et Co.) took us from our homes, threw us off the top of the buildings... Some of us tried to TALK to them, in our way down, only they couldn't hear us! We should have tried harder, howled stronger... Others who tried to explain, convince or beg, have found themselves without hands, eyes or mouths... If only they were quicker in speaking their words...

Avner,your proposal would be a fatal error.you would upgrade hamas terror status.if we want to talk then only with Abu mazen.otherwise catastrophy.

How about returning Texas, New Mexico, Colorado Ariziona, California, Mexicans start lobbing missiles at el Paso on a daily basis, aimed at civilians

Breaking news to you Humayun in London. Hamas is a terrorist organization whose Charter is to destroy Israel. Nope we would be wasting our time talking to them. Bad, bad suggestion.

The problem is that our present govt. looks for all the excuses in the world NOT to lalk to Abu Mazen. The ONLY way to solve the ME problem is to negotiate a two state solution.

The only language our leaders understand is force, so they force every issue into one of military action. We should immediately recognize Hamas as the current governors of Gaza and require them to live up to that role with all that this entails nationally and internationally.
