31. GO HOME NONJEW!
aharon ,   Jerusalem,Israel   (07.18.13)
This is theJEWISH state... Something you cannot understand. It is not peace. It is a recipe for genocide. We have already hade more than our share of that, thank you very much!
32. John Kerry
Judy Jones ,   Charlotte, USA   (07.18.13)
Please, do not listen to this man. HE LIES. His boss, our president, LIES. They say one thing and do another. Do not go back to the 67 borders. The people of the US stand with Israel, that is why we don't want you to believe anything this admin. says or does. They are deceitful beyond words.
33. Complete BS
spyguy ,   seattle   (07.18.13)
There is zero chance Israel will ever agree to 1967 borders. If Israel was serious, it would simply PUBLISH a map with its proposal for borders, but it will not because if it were serious about 1967 borders, over a million people in Israel would riot in opposition and if Israel published its actual border proposal (the Jordan river with heavily guarded pockets of Arabs) the US, EU, China, Russia, the Arabs and most of the rest of the world would come down on Israel like a ton of bricks. Israel has trapped itself in a nasty quicksand with no way out - either civil war or global condemnation. As a result, Israel will try to avoid the inevitable massive war as long as possible, hoping for some miracle.
34. Chaim subject 22 Could it be he is:
KK   (07.18.13)
He is not a Jew,but a Christian Arab squatting in Haifa ?/ There are many up there to be sure. may well be true. We do get them in all Israeli websites we call "TROLLS".
35. #15, If you want to support settlers,
Jake   (07.18.13)
stop calling for their expulsion. They're going nowhere. Try to internalize that, oh rootless cosmopolitan. Peace Now and their ilk are the ones who should be footing the bill for accomodating the expelled settlers from Gaza.
36. #16, Sane Israelis oppose return to pre-1967 lines
Jake   (07.18.13)
and a recent poll shows that 75% of Israeli Jews oppose any kind of concessions in Jerusalem to any future palestinian state, while only 13% are in favor. Get it into your head. There will be no return to the Auschwitz borders.
37. #25, Netanyahu has already DENIED this report
Jake   (07.18.13)
Rejoice at facts, not fiction.
38. #30 trump
Michael ,   Haifa   (07.18.13)
I happened to be here from 1953-67, and until today. Unit 101 and the IDF killed more Arabs than they killed us. After we "escaped" Chaims's 9 mile wide "concentration camp" in 1967 more Jews have been killed than in the corresponding period 1948-67. Why don't you check your facts before posting ?
39. To Jehuda:(10)
KK   (07.18.13)
"Have we forgotten Rabin's legacy? Seems like . However If BB decides to give even one inch the Israeli public should throw him to the "wolves" However,perhaps he has enough courage and dignity not falling to this latest.
40. Go negotiate in SYRIA!! 1 million Syrian refugees!
Rachel ,   NY   (07.18.13)
41. To 32
JJ uk/Israel   (07.18.13)
You are spot on from beginning to end. The clique surrounding BHO shows they are trying to find means the death of Israel.(by the back door) I hope BB does not fall fior it even giving ONE INCH. I wrote a more concerning the subject ,but Ynet went overboard putting the Hebrew versiion that does not qualify when we are all posting in english
42. Netanyahu denial
(07.18.13)
I dont believe him. He may have done so
43. Michael #38, The term "Auschwitz borders" was coined by Eban
Jake   (07.18.13)
Abba Eban, former Israeli ambassador to the UN, and by any standards, an outspoken political dove. He used those words to describe the pre-1967 lines, because he was deeply familiar with security situation in Israel at that time (a hell of a lot more than you are), and deemed a withdrawal to those lines to be completely and utterly unacceptable.
44. Our preconditions tabled 1922 47 68 on Demitarised zone etc
Martin SA   (07.19.13)
Arab united voice not likely with Syria and Egypt teetering I have to be amazed Abbass You want 1967 we start at 1922 outcomes: you want prisoners we want you speak nicely or you wont even listen to you. We need the Knesset to agree that no leader or nominated peace talks negotiator of our country can negotiate without a full range ie standard prescribed set of pre-conditions. Compromised or not these are the pre-conditions placed on the table. Negotiators hands are tied and conditions are tabled Immediately these pseudo arab negotiators insist on pre-conditions they bring out the standard printed set as our opening response. A if you decide on no preconditions we will not table our set. So no blackmail can be perpetrated behind closed door per #23 so correctly mentioned. Livni was under these circumstances was a clever choice by BB. No risk of personal damage to a negotiator. Yes we can develop a comprehensive list of preconditions that can tangle up any talks for another 20 years. So real peace talks would only occur without preconditions. Snoopers of the world be damned. Preconditions are a way of ensuring a stale mate. No preconditions forces both sides to negotiate rather than talk about talk... talk .... talks....
