4. "People are debating and talking..."
Devorah   (03.24.13)
Yeah, they sure are. They are debating and talking about what a bum Obama is and what a nitwit you are, Kerry. Stay out of Israel, and mind your own business.
5. Déjà vu
M Carr ,   Baltimore, USA   (03.24.13)
Why do I get this strange feeling that I experienced this before? Can you spell Déjà vu?
6. The conflict may not be resolved
Sam ,   Canada   (03.25.13)
Israel is not giving Palestinians a one state solution whether they want it or not. Israel also won't give the Palestinians a 2 state solution if the Palestinians can't accept a Jewish majority Israel as one of the two states.By default Palestinians will get the status quo because the conflict can't be resolved. Palestinians will have to live with that. That's the price for wanting everything their way.
7. fake fake fake!!!
marco ,   pardes hana, israel   (03.25.13)
The whole obama thingy stunk of theater, theater and more theater. I mean come on, her swoops in does a cute little publicity stunt, with all the trimmings, flits around here and there, smiles (ALOT!), makes a quick exit, but the cherry on the top is thinking that israel and turkey are gonna be tight buddies again is too much! Listen buster, don't think you have me fooled for a second, i have a great nose for rotten fish, and you left a stench that even the cats would walk away from. Stay home and mind your own business, you have plenty on the USA plate.
8. Idiot!

9. Kerry is a failure on all fronts. In the US
DT ,   Tuy Hoa Vietnam   (03.25.13)
military he sought glory not honor, with Syria he courted Assad, his leadership was appalling. Israel should watch out
10. Jewish Refugee
Zechariah   (03.25.13)
All the Jews wanted was the minimum refuge and security in the Lands allotted to them.Syria Lebanon Iraq Jordan even Eygpt and the gulf states ought to have formed a Jewish Islamic Califate six million Jews and twenty seven million Arabs with the Jews contributing to Medicine and Military science in a humanistic Traditionally Religious SocIety.But the megalomaniacs and sadistic power and blood hungry with threats and fear subjugate the masses with belligerant and tribalistic beliefs and the Dream Collapsed into the Mess of the Viscious Cycle.
11. Palestinian State Premature
Zechariah   (03.25.13)
A prematurely created Palestinian state with eight million Palestinians and the Jews on the Jordan River Valley it can never happen.The Palestinians will want to go to Israel to their homes lost in War it will be a hell a blood bath and go nuclear chemical and biological and Gruesome so called conventional.Till the Iranian threat is thwarted and then other threats Israel and the USA and Russia and moderation in the islamic states need stabilise the hell of fanaticism repression unforeseen consequences.
12. Obama administration misunderstand
Norbus ,   JERUSALEM   (03.25.13)
Middle east politics, viz Asking Iraq's Maliki, under Iran control to stop air shuttles over Iraq airspace Ikhwan the good guys.. I*f these were Shi'as they'd be Hezbullak Peace with Palestinians when they want all the Pieces
13. The right wing alternative is avodah zarah
Avramele   (03.25.13)
Those who rant about the evils of trading land for peace are in actuality advocating sacrificing peace for land. Containment through endless conflict, war and settlement is the strategy of lunatics not zionists - the wet dream of Canaanite idol worshippers who desire their own personal Massada and who think that true Jewish fullfillment is sacrificing goats on the temple mount.
14. Be very skeptical
Steven ,   San Francisco   (03.25.13)
Kerry and his crew can only cause harm to Israeli interests.
15. Kerry's Pipe Dream (Hey, he has to show he's doing something
ltrail ,   United States   (03.25.13)
Talk is cheap and worthless. The so-called palestinians will never fulfill their promises to seek peace with Israel. The West Bank is not theirs to begin with, and always is known as Judea and Samaria; Jewish land for milleniums. The time is right for the State of Israel to annex ( re-possess) the WB and either make the so-called palestinians citizens or assist them in relocating to Jordan. Jerusalem will never be the Capital of the so-called palestinians, but will be, forevermore, the Capital of the State of Israel.
16. Arab Palestinians want pre-conditions
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.25.13)
they want a building freeze for jews beyond the 1949 armistice line, which would mean construction freeze in jerusalem. they want the release of terrorists imprisoned. obama wants israel to hand over land in area B to are A without any reciprocity from the other side. netanyahu must refuse. not even the iranian issue is worth this kind of abject bowing to the little emperor.
17. Peaceidiots !!!.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (03.25.13)
Does those idiot not understand they cant bring about Peace. They have tried this for Decades but have achieved noting but dissapointments Nobody of those they try to Push have asked for their intervention in those affairs, but still those Idiots wants to be Hailed as Great Peacemakers by the World of Usefull Idiots This effort even if successfull in the beginning will also fail. Its only the Conversion of Israels Foes to HASHEM, which can bring about Peace. Arn.Sweden.
18. @2 easy answer, bc they have the biggest army of this planet
EU   (03.25.13)
and they use it if they think its necessary..
19. Yankee go home!!!!!!!
Mike ,   Edmonton, AB   (03.25.13)
Israel doesn't need their money nor their interventions. Just get lost.
20. Certainly Israelis are open and candid
Mira ,   Vienna   (03.25.13)
that makes the difference between them and the crooked Islamist leaders after all!
21. as usual kerry has Ketchup on his face!!
Jerome ,   Basalt, Colorado   (03.25.13)
22. The missionary tactic
paulD ,   Jeruslem   (03.25.13)
What do Mohammad, Martin Luther, Jimmy Carter and Obama, etc. have in common? Approach the Jews like you would approach a wayward demon, with guile and ulterior motives. Show love and compassion like the good L-ord, the son, his prophet, and everyone in between, and them Jews will become uncontrollably seduced from the overwhelming love. When that doesn't work, leave them to the dogs or better yet kill them, which is exactly the approach of every wannabe up and coming savior for the last 2,000 years. And, there are Jews that still don't see it, understand it, and take us all down -- again.
23. Another team 6 in Syria lost
Miron ,   USA   (03.25.13)
and the guy who was supposed to extract our glorious Assad assasins is bringing home zink boxes. Can we please hire back George Bush? At least he knew how to keep ME in order, while gas was 4 $$ / gallon with market floating around 70 - ish. Heavens to any economist, compare to where we are being "led"...
24. NO MORE USA
Keren IL-BR   (03.25.13)
We need different allies, like China, India, Indonesia. Big and prosperous countries. The US is not reliable. And, besides, it is downhill now. They have the moral obligation to support us militarily. So, give us money and just shut up! No messing in our political issues, please.
25. UNITED STATES AND ISRAEL.
SJOERD VAN DER VELDE ,   HOORN NH, HOLLAND   (03.25.13)
LET THE US-GOVERNMENT, INSTEAD OF DEMANDING AND FORCING ISRAEL AND EVERY OTHER COUNTRY, TO DO SOMETHING/EVERYTHING, EVERY TIME, THE PRESENT US-ADMINISTRATION WANTS, LECTURING AND TRAINING IT''S OWN AMERICAN PEOPLE IN A HUMAN WAY. LET US FOR EXAMPLE, AS THE WORLDPOPULATION STRENGTHENING AND DEMOCRATISE THE UNITED NATIONS, SO THAT IT CAN BETTER DO IT''S TASK/DUTY, FOR THE REASON WHY THE UN HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, SINCE 1945 OR BEGIN A BETTER ORGANIZATION.
26. Kerry -Cohen Raised a Christian
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.25.13)
We must have pity on this man, his Grandfather sold his inheritance for a bowl of lentils... LIke so many liberals, he 'fronts' for whatever cause is so called 'progressive' without a thought, without knowledge of history, or loyalty to our ally, Israel or what devastatingly 'nudge' his majesty obama Akbar dictates he do. Just another democratic dummy in a better tailored suit. His past is less than stellar. Why not go for broke and compound the treason by attempting to sacrifice Israel rather than to 'offend' his pro muslim, anti Israeli boss, obama ? What did you expect? A brain? obama only chooses stooges. ( hmm, I think I'll keep that last line. )
27. #13. Right wing alternative is sanity, dignity and survival.
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.25.13)
#13. Any Israeli who wants to cede Judea and Samaria and trim Israel's waist to 9 miles is either a cretin, self destructive or both. It is no coincidence the Right has been correct on every major issue: from Oslo to Disengagement to freeing terrorists to...everything. The right wing alternative (that of the vast majority of Israel) is sanity, dignity and survival.
28. Nr 24. The New Future Allied !.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (03.25.13)
http://www.ourchurch.com/member/e/e/index.php?p=1_10_Yugoslavia Daniel 12 Common English Bible (CEB) Eternal life or eternal disgrace 12 “At that time, Michael the great leader who guards your people will take his stand. It will be a difficult time—nothing like it has ever happened since nations first appeared. But at that time every one of your people who is found written in the scroll will be rescued. Revelation 6 Common English Bible (CEB) Opening the first six seals 6 Then I looked on as the Lamb opened one of the seven seals. I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2 So I looked, and there was a white horse. Its rider held a bow and was given a crown. And he went forth from victory to victory. Revelation 12. Michael and the dragon 7 Then there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back, 8 but they did not prevail, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. 9 So the great dragon was thrown down. The old snake, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, was thrown down to the earth; and his angels were thrown down with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say, “Now the salvation and power and kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ have come. The accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them day and night before our God, has been thrown down. 11 They gained the victory over him on account of the blood of the Lamb and the word of their witness. Love for their own lives didn’t make them afraid to die. 12 Therefore, rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them. But oh! The horror for the earth and sea! The devil has come down to you with great rage, for he knows that he only has a short time.” Arn.Sweden.
29. # 5 -Hope
Get Real ,   UK   (03.25.13)
Arranging meeting to discuss the way forward. Candid and a good beginning. Yes we have heard it all before,many times. So why should this occasion be any different from any other occasion ?
30. Chaim, I too am a security hawk
Avramele   (03.25.13)
We can adjust borders, we can maintain a presence in the Jordan valley, we can control airspace and the electro magnetic grid. But we cannot dominate and occupy another people without losing our soul and undermining our shared Zionist dream. Figure it out. Chag sameach- there is a Seder awaiting.
