1. EU, message to you
CJK   (12.05.13)
it is crystal clear that your threats to boycott the jewish state have had no effect on arab palestinian intransigence and never will. stop your meddling in the affairs of the sovereign jewish state and concentrate on cleaning your own house.
2. clueless in washington
CJK   (12.05.13)
the obama regime is incapable to see the light of day and understand that the arab palestinians refuse to accept jewish sovereignty anywhere in israel. rather, the arab palestinians, as all muslims, consider all muslim conquered lands as theirs in perpetuity.
3. Israel's security
CJK   (12.05.13)
israel does not need an american general, however prominent, to determine her security needs. the jewish state is a sovereign, with a first rate military and intelligence services, and she alone will determine her security needs.
4. International Forces
Aharon   (12.05.13)
Relying on international forces is something that Israel cannot afford. Just look at what happened in the Golan earlier this year when the Syrian Civil War got a little too close for comfort. The international force fled like scared children, something Israel can't hinge its security on. Israel should be responsible for its own security and not have to rely on other nations, as well as, other nations shouldn't be burdened with having to protect a foreign country.
5. First Negative Symptom of Geneva Accord
(12.05.13)
Perception of declining US power has immediate negative impacts on Palestinian prospects for peace and nuclear bomb arms race, missile weaponisation, and solidity of sanctions regime leverage.
6. Of course they rejected the proposal.
michael redbourn ,   Lisbon Portugal   (12.05.13)
The last thing the PA wants is a deal.
7. Also no agreement on refugees,recognition,end of conflict
(12.05.13)
Palestinians are waiting for the talks to end so that they can say Israel is to blame for their failure. They then want to go to international institutions and have the international community boycott and sanction Israel to death. Kerry and Ashton are still trying to figure out what concessions Israel should offer to get their imaginary deal.
8. So what's the news here?
Rotem ,   Israel   (12.05.13)
Kerry didn't make his homework again.
9. ISRAEL IS NOT AT WAR WITH PALESTINE
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (12.06.13)
ISRAEL never fought any wars with this Palestine. She fought with Jordan and Egypt. Why should she negotiate with people who belong to these countries? It does not make sense.
10. @9 We aren't fighting a non-existent enemy, we are fighting
Oren Aviv   (12.06.13)
@9 We aren't fighting a non-existent enemy, we are fighting palestinians for the same land. Doesn't matter if they were backed up by Egypt, Jordan or PA and today Palestine. We've always been at war with palestinians since we stepped foot on this soil.
