1. Read my lips: The 2 state solution is dead !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (06.17.13)
IT NEVER LIVED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET IT FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2. Fille the Knesset with real leaders like Bennett.
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.18.13)
Stupid gutless leaders like Livni and Lapid are the root cause of Israel's problems. They persist on championing the monstrous Two State Final Solution; though any literate child can see it is a holocaust waiting to happen. We need to rid the Knesset of dangerous cowardly fools and fill it with real courageous leaders like Bennett.
3. ''THE PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY'' AND THE ARAB PEOPLE ON OUR GLO
SJOERD VAN DER VELDE ,   OUR PLANET OF EARTH   (06.18.13)
GLOBAL PLANET. THE ARAB PEOPLE ALSO CAN END/ABOLISH ''islam", JUST AS ANY OTHER PEOPLE ON OUR PLANET EARTH CAN DO, BY US AND THE REST OF MANKIND EVERYWHERE. WE CAN BELIEVE IN ALLAH/G.D. AND STUDY RELIGION/ THEOLOGY AT A UNIVERSITY/ACADEMY, FOR EXAMPLE. HEALTH, SECURITY, DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE.
4. The islamic followers lost every wars...
Beary White ,   Norway   (06.18.13)
..they started against Israel, even after they were served an arab state to live in, Jordan / Transjordan. There should be no state called palestine, it has never existed, and will never be created ... The pals should be settled in Jordan. Jordan was made for the islamic followers , as was Pakistan.
5. The only thing Israel left behind?
Taz Man ,   USA   (06.18.13)
Was the false peace lie!
6. “borders”
solomon ,   bklyn   (06.18.13)
The armistice was purposely written and endorsed by the UN so Israel would NOT have to go back to the 1948 armistice lines. So much for him slipping in the words “internationally endorsed” two-state solution on the 1967 borders. Do they always accuse Israel of what they themselves are doing? Usually.
7. From Bennett's lips to HaShem's ears!
Steve Klein   (06.18.13)
8. Hopefully, mad brother Bennett...
Michael ,   Haifa   (06.18.13)
...has just committed political suicide
9. seriously,someone needs to knock erekat
the mad zionist ,   san francisco   (06.18.13)
on the head and then tell him if he wanted peace so bad, why did they turn down olmerts offer for 67 borders, east jerusalem, judea and samaria. its so glaringly obvious what the palestinians tactic is. just a couple of weeks ago they were asking for 100 prisoners to be freed. then 1000, then all of them. then its refugees. and the second an israeli politician makes a comment, they announce thru the media that israel doesnt want peace. but you know whats even sadder then a pathetic loser like erekat? The obama administration is soooo politically correct and in fear of saying anything negative about muslims, that after witnessing the palestinians say and do anything to avoid talks, they will never call them out for obstructing peace talks. bbut im sure we will hear something from them about bennetts comments. And im gonna tell erekat what i tell anyone that starts banging on israel for any decision they make. The Jews have their state. the jews have a thriving country in israel. with a large economy. many nobel prizes. investors like warren buffett investing in israeli companies. israel has a world class military. world class hospitals. world class high tech companies. etc etc etc. what do the palestinians have? Their leaders bank on international handouts. so mr erekat. the jews have their state. by avoiding peace talks its only your people that suffer even more. now i would love nothing more then peace and 2 peoples living side by side in peace. but when you say gotcha, we wont talk until israel gives us this, youre only screwing your own people. israel is fine regardless of talks or not. its sad though that youre own people wont pressure you guys to make peace. its probably because you dont want peace. imagine the hurdles youll have explain to the world why after you got your land and peace and the palestinians are still waging jihad against israel. its much easier not making peace, and blaming israel for it. sad and pathetc erekat.
10. it doesn't have to be all or nothing
Scott ,   Ramat Gan, Israel,   (06.18.13)
there is enough land in Judea & Samaria to split. There are hardly any Arabs living in the Jordan Valley, which is a strategic source of water & buffer from Jordan. Jericho is the only major town there which is under PA control. Jewish settlements only make-up 3% of Judea & Samaria. The refusal to compromise even on things Israel cannot live with such as the influx of millions of Arabs into Israel is what holds up a peace deal.
11. Mr. Kerry had a good run investing in ketchup.
Miron ,   USA   (06.18.13)
But what he can offer for 1/2 of Ierushalaim road brick. Wall Street? It will be washed over by history like it never happened. Mr. Kerry efforts are very much appreciated. In constructive areas.
12. I am so glad the Arabs didn't kill it
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (06.18.13)
I mean just because they have violated every single provision of every single treaty that they have ever signed since the day they signed them. That would never be cause of it's demise. No never. Nor the hundreds of thousands of terrorist attacks - those couldn't possible put an end to this farce. Nope it took somebody with a pair of balls to finally declare it
13. Arabs, believing and religion
Bart Benschop ,   Perth West Australia   (06.18.13)
The PLO represents mainly Muslims in the provinces of Judea, Samaria and Gaza. These people predominantly speak Arabic but are of mixed Mediterranean background, not Arabic. Muslims do not believe in Allah. They submit to the law of Allah called Al Shari'ia. Under Al Shari'ia Muslims must hide and lie in wait behind bushes and rocks to kill believers, but not on the holy days. Muslims who reject the submission to Al Shari'ia are apostates and every Muslim is obliged to kill apostates. According to Al Shari'ia all knowledge is contained in Al Qur'an, the word of Allah .Any study outside of Al Qur'an is Haram, unclean and forbidden to Muslims. Finally the word religion is from Latin and means believing in Gods. According to Al Shari'ia there is only Allah and believing is forbidden. Bart Benschop
14. Remember South Africa
Barry ,   Boston   (06.18.13)
Israel has no choice but to adopt a two state solution. Following in the footsteps of South Africa with one state dominated by a Jewish minority is a recipe for disaster.
15. To Israel: Give Them 2 Weeks or Else
Noah Lev ,   LosAngelesUSA   (06.18.13)
Again the Pales leadership shows what a bunch of babies and whiners they really are. They circumvented Israel, UN242, anda 2 state solution that is viable, by going to the UN and getting support thanks to oil interests and poor Israeli PR job for decades. Make me PM, and I will be much tougher..giving Abbas ( who fired his deputy) , Erkkat and Ashwari a timeframe to come to the table like 2 weeks. If not, I would move brigades into key positions in theW.Bk and start annexing blocks, one by one. 2 states was a folly and will be..the Pales goal is Jihad, the Caliphate, and a Judenrien Palestine, from the sea to the sea. Livni and herilk are so out in left field, she should be tried for treason and compromising the integrity of the govt.But Abbas knows as do theothes, that its Bibi bby and his clout and authorityh and resonablness thatwill makethePalesdreamof twostates ( temporarily)a reality.All theyhaveto dois sitdownandtalk..get it talk,w/o peconditions. Ben Gurion,Dayan, Begin, Meir, are crying in their graves..seeing all their work going to hell. Hez sent 2,000 plus fighters into syria..and the West is worried. They have 100,000 rockets aimed at Israel with 25,000 soldiers ready to move into the Golan and Northern Israel..they admit it. And no one saysa word, not even Livni and other traitors. Sedition galore, worse than the Daniel Pearl papers, or the lastest whistle blower by far. To Israel declare marshal law, close down leftist papers and themedia...arrest anyone who sides with your enemies and are making Israel the laughing stock of the planet. while Turkey and Syria show their true colors. Over 100,000 Syriandeaths in 2 years..many children tortured..yet the Pales issue makes headlines? Folks,until Israel gets tough and wakes up..wewill be reading these reports, thePales using Israel's every turn to its advantabge. Bennett is not the PM or Foreign Secretary....guys. He is as impotent as anyone on the left in Labor, etc., and Erekat knows it. With the Pales, its guilt by statements...he said it, Bibis wants to talk..so A plus B equals D. First and foremost, its time to read the Torah, an eye for an eye...read that to the Pales terrorists in court.
16. One is Playing Checkers, the Other Chess
Noah Lev ,   Los AngelesUSA   (06.18.13)
to Beary White: Israel and the Diaspora must read, Six Daysof War by Michael Oren. It reveals what if, the Jews had lost? We would not now be discussing compromises ( Clinton are you listening?). The goal of the Pales and their brothers, is a Judenrein Israel..converted into a Muslim state..with every single relic ofJudaism or culture destroyed, similar to the 48 War. Everything said about a futurestate for the Pales is hogwash, a fantasy, in hell. The W. Bk will be takenoer by Hamas or Hezbollan, with Jordancompromsies...and Iran willing tosend its Guards to aid (once it has the bomb). israel is playing theArab game..with a 5th colume that is worse than in France during WW2. It won 3 wars..and has no reason to give back land taken, but should annex land for its security..and back it up with its army. Israel is playing checkers and the Pales chess. they want the queen, all of it. Until Israel and all its leaders wake up..to the reality of the conflict...these accusations will go on and on..and have listeners. To Israel: for your future..look north into Syria...that could be you.
17. Excuses
Joe Mevorah ,   Lincoln, USA   (06.18.13)
Now the Palestinians have found their excuse to walk away from a failed peace process that neither side really wants. This bullshit of playing to the world of public relations is a child's game of I will only play the game if it's played only by my rules only.
18. Mr. Bennett's view are largely due to the fact that the...
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (06.18.13)
...Arabs, including Mr. Erakat, have done, for decades, all that they can to extract concessions from Israel but without showing any interest in achieving an accommodation of peaceful coexistence with the liberal democratic and sovereign nation-state of the Jewish people.
19. Both sides now agree - Two-state is dead
spyguy ,   Seattle   (06.18.13)
Soooo, what happens now? The status quo of severely oppressing the non-Jews west of the Jordan River is not sustainable. What will Israelis do now that they have all the land and the millions of humans on that land? Those non-Jewish humans are NOT going anywhere, so what will Israel do with several million angry impoverished humans?
20. Something interesting may be up
Avramele   (06.18.13)
The right is being particularly vocal and nasty,Bibi particularly quiet and. Kerry unfazed, and Peres is smiling. Could it be serious negotiations are not far behind?
21. American Jews
Jacob ,   FL USA   (06.18.13)
We never recognised in a Arab Authority in middle of our holy land, WE NEED MUCH MORE MK's LIKE BENNET & FEIGLIN that's our only way
22. ok, so
dan ,   dc   (06.18.13)
what is the plan for the 2.5 million arabs in area a and b? lets face it, you can't have your cake and eat it. and no pie in the sky proposals such as "jordanian administration", unless you have first hand knowledge that king abdullah is dying to do that.
23. 1 Bi-national state
David ,   San Diego   (06.18.13)
Since the two state solution has officially been killed by Israel, its time for 1 bi national state that has equal rights for Arab and Jewish residents. If Israeli's do not accept this than the world community will place sanctions on Israel. No screams of "anti-semite" will hold affect. If you kill the two state solution, you also kill Israel as a Jewish state.
24. Death of what?
Jennie ,   Isael/US   (06.18.13)
Suddenly Erekat is talking about 2-state solution ? The truth is, that Israel has no partner for negotiations and nothing to negotiate about...Palestine is the over 3000 years old homeland of the Jewish People and will remain such...
25. here's the thing...
Yossi ,   England,UK   (06.18.13)
My friends,the problem in my opinion is that if Israel withdraw to the 1967 borders,it will be almost impossible to defend its borders against threats,see Gush katif withdrawl for example which resulted in Hamas firing rockets deeper into Israel ! On the other hand if we have one country for two peoples (Isr & Pal) in time we will lose the Jewish majority due to natural birth rate which is higher in the arab/palestinian population. The Palestinians,which I prefer to call Israeli arabs,should be able to exist,live and they do have a right to be in Israel as they were there when Israel was established I just wish they will abandon their tretorus ways and seek real peace with us. Israel will make peace tomorrow if the Israeli Arabs show REAL intentions to live in co-existance,but unfortunately this is not the case ! May god bless Israelis & Arabs with peace !!!
26. Bennett just articulated what the palis have actually done!
EST ,   Miami USA   (06.18.13)
The Palestinians killed the two-state solution decades ago...several times over. Don't blame Israel once again for your failures!!!!
27. Funny American Jews
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.18.13)
Even the Pro Israel Galus Jews make me laugh. People you are the reason why the arabs still have a chance at pushing us into giving up more and more to them. If we had the demographics in ALL of Israel then we could ignore them or breed them out eventually. You the galus Jews are responsible for Israel's plight to remain Jewish. You sit and preach from a distance. Listen, soon you will be devastated economically, remember, it is because you are stubborn and spoiled. Fight for your country IN your country.
28. Why like South Africa!
Ros ,   Israel   (06.18.13)
The Jews are the majority in our country - let's stop there. And Bennett does not speak for everyone here -
29. Not only Bennet
Anna M Sedda ,   Rome-Italy   (06.18.13)
I also declare the 2 state stupid solution finish because was a "nonsense solution"...The only ones that keep this big Islamic lie alive is the Fakestinian authority ,a fake authority for a fake country for the fake people called "fakestininas.
30. How can something that was NEVER
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (06.18.13)
alive, be dead?
