61. let israeli goverments continue
diego ,   buenos aires   (01.19.13)
the road of selfdestruction. In any case israel is a society based on security and locked up from the rest of the world. They will never listen tooutsiders because they are evil and antisemites. Let them go till the bitter end. The two state solution just was a hoax; it was meant to win time and steal more land while talking peace. therefore i hope that an extreme right wing with religous bigots wins this elections; to accelerate the one state solution. Because the so callled peace camp shalom ahshav are all ipocrites. At least the other parties are coherent. One state for all the people with equal indivividual and collective rights.

There is no place for the palestinians in the JEWISH STATE. They can't force us to give them citizenship anymore than they can force the Americans to give them American citizenship. The bleeding heart west might care about the palestiians but in Israelis from both the left and right even amongst the peace camp hate the palestinians. I was walking through town once and I saw an arab man on the ground crying as an Israeli ( not religious ) was shouting at him things like this is my country. There were armed security guards hired by the municipality just a couple of metres away and laughing, lots of people stopped, looked and then walked on by. Bad enough there are already arabs living in the Jewish state we certainy would never allow the rest of them to have citizenship. Since Obma cares so much about them maybe he would like to give them all citizenship, rather than creating a non viable state palestinian state in Judea & Samria or let them have fantasies of become Israeli cotozens.

He is to blame because by his speeches and actions,he makes it plain that he is not willing to just STOP building .On the contrary,as soon as there may be a sign of progress,he announces more building.Good cop/bad cop etc. He is always counting on the other side NOT talking,because of his pre-emptive announcements of eating the cake that is being negotiated. I do not think that we can go on forever isolating ourselves on our planet.If there is a better way to explain to the world what we are doing,why dont our ambassadors explain it en mass.Is it because they have been told that the government dont care what anyone else thinks and that they are "just clerks" and if they dont like it they should enter politics or resign?" Of course all of this does not mean that I dont recognise the unhelpful actions and words from the other side....
64. what Benassi's America will actually get excited about is:

a college football player who got online-scammed by some chick. PS: you will live to see a Hebrew-immersion Charter School in Minnesota. One going up now in San Antonio. As Texas goes, so goes Minnesota.
65. One nation with two states
Bscot ,   Dallas, Tx   (01.20.13)
Israel would control the military whille a strong but fair constitution would define everones civil rights and land issues.
66. # 18 Marcie thank you.

You've testified as to why Israel is 'a light unto the nations'. Your sister is a living witness to a medical miracle, a free gift from the Jewish heart. in this time of so much pressure on Israel for the confusing stories you've heard, just remember this please, Israel, and Jews, in general brought all of us a book to live by and from Leviticus ( Lv 19: 18 ) we are instructed 'to love they neighbor as thyself.' I hope many people come forth to assist you on your path to knowledge, and that your studies prove satisfying for your need to know. In short, all Biblical prophecy is being fulfilled in Israel, her struggles, her return from an absence of over 2,000 years, and the fight to posses Israel as was promised fort he "Promised land." It is a marvelous study that is alive and as factual as the day it was written, thousands of years ago. Whatever ones faith, no other book contains such actual living truths that we read about in Israel today. It's exciting as a Jew to be alive in this time, Jews have waited over 2,000 years ago to return to our land. Again, thank you for taking the time to tell your inspiring story. Shalom and Braca. ( Peace and Blessings )

Looks like the saudi's are gifting Abbas with $100. mill. Maybe they can finance him alone and let US poorer nations pay our on bills now instead? Hope we cut off every dime to the pals, t only prolongs the agony, they will move for Israel's busy BUILDING BABY BUILDING !! and, hopefully, ANNEXING BABY ANNEXING !!!!

solomon ,   bklyn   (01.20.13)
The Oslo Accords already state that any Pal state will be totally demilitarized, borders controlled by Israel, etc. The Pals have already stated they will have none of it. Yet another agreement they refuse to live up to.
69. shame abbas isn't voting
zionist forever   (01.20.13)
What a pity for them Abbas and all his aides are not voting in these elections otherwise they might be able todo something. He does though have aids who do vote in Israel elections and they go by the names of Tibi & Zouabi. As Abbas is so concerned about elections these days instead of criticising the potential outcome of Israeli elections why doesn't he hold elections of his own. The PA was supposed to hold elections 4 years ago but Abbas decided to put them on hold until firther notice. Can he be taken to the ICC over that ?
70. #23

They would go back to Europe where they came from, wouldn't they?
71. #24 You don't make sense
(01.21.13)
Two things will continue to happen to you if you keep lying: 1. Your nose will get bigger 2. You won't go to Heaven.
72. #48

I say it is brilliant, and should be more widespread!

But your name is COHEN. Are you from the Levi tribe because you wear their jeans?
74. #62-Really?
(01.21.13)
It is a pity you do not know how to write English properly, but from what I could decipher, you have just shown that Israel IS indeed an apartheid state. Well done.
75. #53, #54 al
solomon ,   bklyn   (01.21.13)
Do you know that the WB is not under occupation, but is contested (if that’s the word), according to real international law, not the bogus one always “quoted”? That few, if any, Christians are in senior leadership roles? That Christians are leaving, many going to Israel, due to Muslim persecution? That Jews in the WB are citizens of Israel, and the Pals in the WB are not? That Israel is a democracy and that Jews in the WB can vote? That to think that Jews in the WB control the government is ludicrous, given their low numbers. That the Pals want their state to be judenrein? That they propose a one-state solution, only as a means of destroying Israel? That your posts are ludicrous in that they ignore facts and the history of what went before. But you know that.
76. #68
(01.21.13)
What you are proposing is that the Palestinians not be able to defend themselves and remain occupied and controlled by Israel forever. Would you like to live like this? Are you proposing that the Palestinians give up everything, roll over and die like your people did?
77. apartheid
joemoer ,   israel   (01.21.13)
i am sure that a lot of people are getting really tired of the word apartheid being bandied about to describe israel. where exactly is apatheid practiced in israel..we have arab citizens,arabs can vote,arabs can go to a restuarant,a movie house,they can sit next to me at the beach,they have members of the knesset,they can sit anywhere on the bus,they can become anything they want,they can study ,become doctors,work in hospitals,taxi drivers,factory owners...but we are talking about israeli arabs ....thats where the world confusion starts...if you are an arab that resides in bethlehem you are under palestinian control ,you are not equal to an israeli,you need permission to come into israel...thats not apartheid
78. #7 Abraham ben Yaacov
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (01.21.13)
“MUSLIM DHIMMITUDE” IS “APARTHEID & RACISM” For well over a millennium, across three continents - Asia, Africa, and Europe - non-Muslims have experienced jihad war ideology, and its No truer words could have been spoken: ugly corollary institution, Dhimmitude. Today, the debate among Muslim scholars regarding the theological "correctness" of "lesser" versus "greater" jihad are meaningless to the millions of non-Muslim victims- Christians, Jews, Zoroastrians, Hindus, and Buddhists

If you don't like it, feel free to leave, nobody invited you for your caustic nonsense

solomon ,   bklyn   (01.22.13)
What I am proposing is that the arabs be held accountable for their actions. Starting with attacks on Israel in the late 1800's, continuing through 1948 to the present, they need to first prove that they will live peacefully. They still say they will never accept Israel or Jews. So you are saying that Israel, returning to its homeland, should be stupid enough to give people filled with hatred a free ride? As to the second: ever hear of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising (which lasted longer than Polish defense of Poland) and others? Jews don't roll over and die, and it seems you have a problem with that. Tough.
81. #76 PS
solomon ,   bklyn   (01.22.13)
The arabs are not “defending themselves”. They are the ones attacking! The PA can’t accept Jews and Hamas wants to kill them. You are one of those that calls defense, an attack. ignoring the first attack by the arabs. Doesn’t wash. Sorry.
