Andrew ,   Canada   (03.24.13)
Harold please stop trying to justify your nonsense for intelligent argument, international law applys to democratic civilized nations, non of the Arabs or Muslims poses that attribute, and Israel has done everything to achieve peace, it does not need to commit suicide so that Obama can win another fake Nobel peace prize
62. #2 Chaim - You're right
Devorah   (03.24.13)
If Obama will not hesitate to kill Americans on their own soil via his NDAA and drone programs, just consider what he would be willing to do to Israelis without thinking twice. And I will say this for the fourth time for the record: If Israel engages in a conflict with Iran, Obama will order Israeli planes shot down "in the interest of regional peace."
63. Excellent analysis
Harri ,   EU   (03.24.13)
Attila Somfalvi said it all. A balanced view of the balanced speech. Obama has started the mission, and this time I have some hope that it will be accomplished, for the great benefit of both Israelis and Palestinians.
64. Time to look for new partnerships
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A./Israel   (03.24.13)
I've got so frustrated with the behaviour of the American leadership that I believe it is time to look for new partners... China, Russia, Brazil... you name it... What about errasing the US from Israel's guest book and just look for reliable, different friends? Seems interesting, ins't it?
65. Are you saying America should support
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
Islamic terrorists? ALL Muslims have become murderers of their own.
66. # 20 Astronaut We were hoping the muslims would keep him as
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
a car ornament.
67. The pals greatest supporter obama the rat
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
There is a cure for the pal/obama problem 1- ANNEX 2- BUILD 3- CAPITOL ALL OF JERUSALEM. Israel ISN"T giving the pals shit.
68. The same thing Spain, England, Germany
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
Italy, ALL nations have done. They came, they saw and they conquered. Next question.
69. # 26 Americans don't support obama period
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
his approval ratings are starting to match bozo the clown, whose done far less damage than obama the muslim.
70. # 30 Brilliant !
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
If Israel decides to take all the land G-d gave her, adios arabs.
71. Big Changes Conceivable
Zivron   (03.24.13)
There could be as much as a are of fifteen hundred square miles swapped a lot has changed since 1937 when the Partitions were first proposed.Islamic Israel can swap for Jewish Judae and Samariah the Jews anyway the Security Minded will insist on a military presence on the Jordan to stop Jihadi and Ba'ath invaders causing hate and Protect. Against an attack willing to make the Palestinians Martyrs en masse.
72. You can't steal what is a gift from G-d.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
The ten commandments are being followed to the letter G-d gave Israel ALL the land between the two great rivers. Read a book, dummy. pals are the thieves and liars. Israel Judea Samaria all united under King David over 3,000 years ago.
73. # 10 Shep tell obama the muslim
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
obama will be gone in less than four years despite the attempts to ruin Israel as he has America, he cannot take what is given by G-d to His Chosen.
74. # 21 obama sides with the muslims
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
except for actually giving speech's in say Syria, Arabia or Mecca.
75. # 38 Avramele If not for right wingers you'd be dead.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
If your security were at stake, I wouldn't count on obama talking the pals to death for you.
76. I wonder what Sara B.aruch Goldstien has to say about this
Salem ,   AlQuds   (03.24.13)
as she poses as the superior intellectual Israeli/American/Israeli voice of reason!!!!!!!!
77. # 48 You got that right!!!
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
PARTY ON ISRAEL!!!!
78. # 47 Mark too bad that obama pisses
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
on that tree. Thomas Jefferson ended bowing as an Ambassador to France from America and initiated the hand shake that only obama brought back from the 200 year old dead to bow before the king of arabia who finances muslim wars. ( As does Iran ) obama should return to Kenya, he'd made a better witch doctor than an America President.
79. # 58 Robert Yes!
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
I believe Israel has seen and heard quite enough from obama the muslim. My bet is that despite obama's best efforts, ( getting up before noon, smoking a pack of camels drinking 12 cups of coffee and trying to remain sober) Israel will take a page from arafat's playbook and stall baby stall. obama is a temporary annoyance like a horse fly on the ass, one swish of the tail and he gets hit and starts again aiming again from the rear. obama wont be here in another 4 years, just another horse fly on the ass, easily fanned away, with enough time. 4 years or less is enough time.
80. Netanyahu went over Obama's head
Talia   (03.24.13)
Netanyahu went over Obama's head to Congress to show the world he can undermine the leader of the free world. As for trust, NOBODY in the world trusts Netanyahu and the rest of his gang, nobody!
81. Israel
gramps ,   NJ   (03.24.13)
Too bad no on pays attention to facts, especailly obama. Eighty per cent of the land promised to the Jews was taken away from them in order to create the new state of Jordan which is populated with so called "palestinians.' There has never been a a state of Palestine nor until just recently were there any people called 'palestinians." Israel had not stolen one inch of land from anyone. To the contrary nearly a million Jews from Arab countries had all their property stolen from them. Hebron was purchaed by Abraham - the Bible recordes the deed. No one should trust Obama since he words are just meaningless words designed to obfuscate his true intentions.
82. 57 Mark, the Arabs havve rejected everything
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.24.13)
i see that you are going around everywhere telling jews that choices have consequences. maybe you should tell your arab palestinian friends that choices have consequences. they are incapable of grasping this concept just as they are incapable of grasping the concept of compromise.
83. @Joel
nva ,   jerusalem   (03.24.13)
Bibi spoke by invitation of the US Congress to the duly elected officials in your country. Obama refused the invitation of the Knesset and ignored normal protocol of speaking before our duly represented govt , the Knesset. He bypassed it, snubbed the electorate and set up his own agenda in someone else's country. A hand picked crowd as well. When you tell the govt to take the reins it is govt to govt. When you bypass the govt and go the people to take the reins in someone else's land it's called instigating rebellion. It was no way the same move but totally and completely opposite.
84. Obama is an anarchist
Istvan ,   BUDAPEST HUNGARY   (03.24.13)
If the people of Israel voted confidence to B. Netanyahu, how dares he incite for rebellion ? Is this US democracy ?
85. Obama
marian ,   Romania   (03.24.13)
''...while not ignoring the facts related to demographics,...'' Have you increase your Total Fertility Rate to about 5 per Israeli woman ?
86. # 60 Don't forget the G-d of Israel
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.24.13)
obama has no power over Israel, in fact, everything he's touched here in America has turned to shit.
87. The truth is...the left wing under Obama and friends bashed
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (03.24.13)
Bush for the Iraq War endlessly. They did the same in the Vietnam War. Now you have a country that will not fight a war if needed anymore. As Obama dismantles the nuclear arsenal.....dismantles the right to bear arms by United States citizens.....and runs the country like Robert Mugabe into the ground........ Who do you think is coming to the rescue of any of these foreign nations as well as Israel? Obama is turning the United States into a professional boxer without gloves...or the knowledge to fight anyone......a pacifist state. When your dad looks out the window of your house and sees a dangerous individual with a weapon pointed at your residence.....Your father will gladly look at Obama's 2012 manual on how to de-escalate a crisis.....walk out to discuss the situation with the intruder outside of your home......and be shot execution style while pleading for every ones life inside. Is this the person you seek consultations with in a time of emergency? Glorify at your own expense, because he could sell you a dying horse....and convince you that it had just won the Kentucky Derby? He is an actor.....and talk doesn't defend you from tyrants.
88. Demagogue
Jeff Grill, M.D. ,   Phoenix, Arizona   (03.24.13)
President Obama is a despicable demagogue who needs to be exposed. He is an Islamophile and does not 'really' care about Israel. He has no authority to try a force a 'peace' with a ahistoric, mendacious entity known as the 'Palestinian People." Obama slapped the Israeli nation in the face by not addressing the Knesset and inviting students from Ariel University. Do no be fooled by this demagogue. There is no such thing as '67 borders - only armistice lines. Judea and Samaria are sovereign Israeli lands. I pray that my Israeli brethren - who are enamored with Obama - wake up and smell the 'rotten humus.'
89. #64 - Sarah, remember that vote in the UN a few months ago?
spyguy ,   seattle, usa   (03.24.13)
The REALITY you can not seem to grasp is there is NO OTHER nation on earth that will protect Israel like the US. Both Russia and China will only be friendly until they bleed Israel of every resource and then will throw Israel away. Israel; has nothing Brazil wants or needs. Remember, that every nation on earth either voted for Palestine or abstained. Only the US and Israel voted against. That should; tell you just how delusional you are.
90. 16# You are living in a fantasy.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (03.24.13)
All you kids want to do is play nintendo ..and play fight, with no casualties and consequences. Obama's pathetic version of reality. In the real world...you better strap on the uniform and learn to shoot. The Arabs and Persians aren't sitting idly by hoping to be given a nuclear weapon. The are actively gaining the knowledge to create the weapon and doing so. Keep hoping for peace....it has been hoped for...for many thousand of years. A fools paradise of ecstacy.
