1. Israel should immediatley begin annexing area C,
A ,   Belgium   (06.05.13)
than watch how Abbas runs to the negotiating table.
2. who will negotiate?
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (06.05.13)
Ignoring what results can be achieved by negotiations, who on the Arab side can negotiate? The main representative of the Arabs is Hamas with about 89%(!) support according to the Pew Research Center. Hamas considers it an unchangeable political and religious obligation to genocide the Jews. Just on this basis, it is clear that there is no point in negotiating. Assume that the remaining 11% of Arabs support the "moderate" Fatah, supported by and considered the legitimate representative of the Arabs by the Israeli extreme-Left and Obama regime. Even the Fatah constitution prohibits any viable Israeli state. Nothing is new here (except that Hamas was usually considered to represent "only" 80% of the Arabs) proving that the "peace process" is a corrupt scam, where fools (Western taxpayers) pay lots of money to give a select few a very comfortable existence, while Arabs suffer and Jews die.
3. End phony deadly "peace talks" with terrorist P.A.
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.05.13)
Yeah, Israel is dying to talk about ceding Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria to the genocidal P.A. and turning Israel into a 9 mile wide concentration camp. Israel is dying to be inundated by rockets. Israel is dying to be inundated by hostile Arabs. Israel longs to self destruct... NOT. Have the guts to end the sick, deadly "peace talks" with the terrorist P.A. This tiny land is ours now and forever!
4. Pali's delay for peace talks due to Mideast boiling water
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (06.05.13)
They want to wait to see where the dice roll.
5. That's Right Why Would abu mazen
(06.05.13)
Want to sit down and Talk, negotiating is Building Trust! Pure And Simple! These Posers With No History In His See It Far EASIER to KEEP TAKING GELT, in turn for Nothing But Violence and Murder! The Moment the arab/bedouins made Their Unilateral move The Israeli Government should have put to a vote By The People For The People To Annex All Area's Allegedly Disputed Territories And TAKE BACK Moses and Joshua's Land!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually It's Not Too Late To Start The Proceedings Right Now? Like Nike Says " Just Do It"! Shalom/ Baruch Ha Shem
6. Kerry+Obama looking for way to hand over West Bank to Pals
Sam ,   Canada   (06.05.13)
Kerry and Obama are looking for a way to make good on Obama's wish to give Palestinians a state. In return for that they would give Israel a few security measures not a peace agreement. It's up to Jews not to play the role of suckers just because Kerry engages in some fear-mongering to try and scare Jews into an agreement.
7. I sincerely hope that we're not ready to run and "talk any-
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.05.13)
where/anytime". For Pete's sake Why the heck should we be so ready to commit suicide?! Let Kerry & his Manchurian President travel to Hell and back meeting any and every Arab that wants to talk to them...None of our business. None of theirs.
8. Pal unwilling for talks for eons
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!! ,   United States   (06.05.13)
but, they approve of terror, kidnappings and the massacre of the Fogel Family. Not to mention the monumental lie that the 'pals' and a Roman given nick name of Israel never truly existed except in the cavities of their depraved what you might call remnants of a brain. KEEP BUILDING !!!! Only guaranteed avenue to peace.
9. to #1 it was the palis in 1947 who refused to
ghostq   (06.05.13)
take area C, they wanted All with no negotiation back than they wanted Tel Aviv who was 47 years old. on historical misstakes palis have to pay.
10. It is simple: If they wanted to talk, they could have done
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (06.05.13)
it many times since 2009 and done with it, having reached the Final Status Agreement to which they committed themselves in writing. But, the truth is, they don't want to talk about peace with Israel because they can't bring themselves to accept Israel's right to exist as the sovereign nation-state of the Jewish people on ANY parcel of land of the Jewish people's ancestral homeland.
11. #10 Which is why Pals want free prizes before talks start
Sam ,   Canada   (06.05.13)
Palestinians know there won't be an agreement so they want free concessions like a freeze or prisoner release before talks start. They also don't mind Kerry handing them the West Bank in return for nothing.
12. More talks about talks?
Get Real ,   UK   (06.05.13)
Palestinian pre-conditions preclude progress in any meaningful talks. And will Hamas accept and honour any agreement reached with Israel, or do they still seek the destruction of Israel?
13. Israel could start the discussion this minute
spyguy ,   Seattle   (06.05.13)
All it has to do is prepare and publish a document that gives the EXACT details of what it wants, including a map of the proposed borders, just like the Arabs league has prepared and published its proposal ten years ago. BUT Bibi can not do that because it will either get laughed out of the room by everyone on earth or if it actually meets international requirements, the settlers will immediately remove him from office. Bibi can not win unless the talks never start.
