1. No peace with terrorists
Edinburg Hayyim ,   Ra'anana ISRAEL   (07.31.13)
To bring Arab terrorists into our Knesset is a terrible insult to peace loving Israeli citizens. We should not even be speaking with them. They are not a sovereign state. You want to talk peace, speak with "Jordan" that held control over yehuda and Shomron before we liberated it.
2. Same Pal BS.They want 2 states AND right of return to Israel
Sam ,   Canada   (07.31.13)
Maybe the Palestinians can BS the ignoramuses in the US and the EU with their 2 state solution but most Jews are on to their tricks. Jews want to hear 2 states for 2 peoples or something of that nature. As it is, by 2 state solution Palestinians mean 2 Palestinian states.
3. And on the flipside?
S.C. ,   Canada   (07.31.13)
And would the Israeli flag ever be put in the Palestinian parliament?? One should never fool themselves to thinking that we would be accommodated the same way.
4. Disgusting idea
M.C.   (07.31.13)
Who's disgusting idea was this? Talk about adding insult to injury Listen to the Congress ministers on A7 and learn from them. They have more sense and self respect than some of our own parliamentarians. Too many in our Knesset and citizens are causing untold frustration and embarrassment to the Jewish people both in Israel and around the world. Get a grip!!! Dissociate yourselves from this nonsense.
5. That's the poorest hung Israeli flag I've ever seen
Yaniv ,   Israel   (07.31.13)
I remember there being a star of david somewhere in the flag. Perhaps the Israeli leftists think that would upset the Palestinian delegation.
6. # 1, 2, 3
Stan ,   Israel   (07.31.13)
Jomo Kenyatta was the bloodthirsty terrorist leader of the Mau Mau in Kenya. In later years I saw him in London riding in an open carriage with the Queen. Nelson Mandela was the leader of the ANC terrorists. After 27 years of suffering in jail, he brought reconciliation between Blacks and Whites in SA.
7. Labor must be brought to justice over Oslo.
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.31.13)
The root cause of this Labor abomination is that the Labor Party was never brought to justice over Oslo. More than 1,500 Israelis are dead and more than 14,000 maimed due to the criminal negligence of Peres and Labor during the Oslo Disaster. However, Labor was not forced to pay for it's crimes. Standing high, in its arrogance, Labor is not prepared to inflict further mass suffering on Israel while prattling about "peace". It is high time to bring Shimon Peres and Labor to justice. Oslo victims must be compensated. We must end the evil, arrogance and madness of Labor's vile impact on Israesl.
8. to no 6

10. Democracy is Peace, 2 States, 1 Country, Palestine Israel
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.31.13)
11. Yes, Abbas wants peace for *his* country, but...
sure   (07.31.13)
in *no way* ending the conflict over the remainder of Israel. He wants everything given to him, without himself needing to sign anything or oblige to anything.
12. Left Wing Lies
Bill Stein ,   USA   (07.31.13)
Take a look what Ben Eliezer said at this pow wow. as per Times of Israel Fair Use Minutes before the end, Ben-Eliezer said he envisioned a peace settlement in which there would be “two states, with a border but no fence, so we can visit each other and live together.” In other words he wants a bi national state and that is exactly what will happen if there s no border fence.
13. #6 Palestinians have not done anything yet
Sam ,   Canada   (07.31.13)
Palestinians have not done anything yet except try and fool Israelis and the West into handing Israel over to them.
14. steve #10 -how's that gonna
arne ,   chicago usa   (07.31.13)

15. Palestinian flag
Gilda Cohen ,   Rome   (07.31.13)

16. #14, Clue...50 States, 1 Country, United States of America
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.31.13)
17. To those Praying for war
Avramele   (07.31.13)
A rational person hopes for peace, understands the suffering to both sides brought on by war, all the time consolidating a strong defense and a viable negotiating position. It is the half crazed messianists who pray endlessly for war in the hope it will allow for the expulsion or worse of Palestinians. The last weeks have clarified who is who.
18. 16 Clue...unbeatable military force (although
A ,   Belgium   (07.31.13)
Little Big Horn was a setback), emerging industry based on coal and the environmental destruction associated with mining and the health hazards associated with mining, a workforce based on cheap labor provided by the grandchildren of slaves, failed foreign policy in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Middle East, failed economic policy that allows a city with the stature of Detroit to have no choice but to declare bankruptcy, and you have it Benazzi, American National Socialist Workers Party Wannabe..1 country, the 50 suffering states of the U.S. of A. Stand proud!
19. 6.
Birdi ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
Kenyatta & Mandella had no choice but to renounce terrorism. As for Abbas & his merry flock of liars & killers,they want to take over the entire land of Israel, The only homeland of the Jewish people. When you realize this Stan & I hope you do, you will change your tune. Until then keep dreaming.
