Robert ,   USA   (01.07.14)

6. Wait and see - said the Englishman.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (01.07.14)
The Fruit or Lack or Fruit of Ones actions, does not belong to Oneself but to HASHEM if you are HIS Servant. You should always do what You considers Right, and leave everything else to God. The Fruit of Action should therefore not be the Motive and Aim of Your Actions. Arn.Sweden.
7. Abramovich is worse on paper than he is on TV
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (01.07.14)
Either way you cut it, he's quite mealy-mouthed.
8. Is Amnon a charlatan?
Michael ,   Israel   (01.07.14)
Amnon, nice try but we are not buying your disingenuous propaganda. Amnon wants to create an artificial arab state in Judea and Samaria aligned with and controlled by Iran at the gates of Gush Dan and Jerusalem. Amnon, conveniently ignores the fact that Iran, an islamic terrorist state has sworn the destruction of the "rabid dog" state of israel. All arabs living In Judea and Samaria remain citizens of the arab nation, Jordan forever. Question, why would anyone want to bring iran to the gates of jerusalem, Gush Dan. Why?
9. What mindless condescending drivel.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.07.14)
There is no "occupation" to end. Judea and Samaria are Israel's 4,000 year old ancestral heartland. What mindless condescending drivel. The average high school student could do better.
10. Abramovich hasn't got a clue - Gaza & WB!?
Michael Redbourn ,   Lisbon Portugal   (01.07.14)
When I read that "Sadaat inserted the Gaza Strip as a bonus", I knew the writer knew nothing about his subject. Israel didn't want the Gaza strip and there were jokes at the time about Peres saying to Barak, "We're giving them Gaza" and Barak responding, "And what are they getting in return?". Gaza was occupied almost unintentionally and Israel has tried to get rid of it many many times ever since. And Sharon never once mentioned any kind of significant disengagement from parts of the West Bank and if fact favored populating it. Doesn't anybody check content before it gets published?
11. What about ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.07.14)
.... a spurious peace agreement with an intractable terrorist rabble whose dedication to the destruction of the State of Israel has never been in question. Where will thrusting Israel into a false and potentially suicidal "peace" with terrorists leave Netanyahu as far as history is concerned? That should be Netanyahu's chief concern.
12. amnon and saying no
geroge   (01.07.14)
sissi told kerry to go to hell to preserve egypt's interests and he has more respect for doing it. By the way egypt is better off with him than the radical cult of moslem brotherhood which is rotten at the root.
13. One mistake
(01.07.14)
Abramovich writes "two prime ministers who got the country in a good state and left behind ruins were Golda Meir and Ehud Barak". He forgot that Rabin received the country in a better state than Golda or Barak, and left ruins far greater than any other.
14. HOW DID ALL THE LEFTISTS IN ISRAEL GET SO CRAAAAZY??????????
It's just ,   UNBELIEVABLE   (01.07.14)
They are all totally insane!!!!!!!! Mohammedans will attack Tel Aviv FIRST. The homosexuals will be killed FIRST. How can you be SOOOO SELF HATING that you want to die?
15. To give up Judea and Samaria is treason !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (01.07.14)
It's as simple as that ...
16. Another Truth
Zechariah   (01.08.14)
Golda Meir was not a General she never worked in Mossad and Israeli society and generals were UltraComplacent and Focussed on Europian Terrorism and Cold War Machinations.Also Israel Recovered from severe losses and regained Strategic advantage .As for Barak support for leaving Lebanon was widely supported and who Helped create Hezbollah as a strength from 1979-1985 as a counter reaction to a brutal war .What of Hezbollah now supporting Chemical Assad and the Ba'ath Torturers .
17. History has a way of seeing things completely differently
Shachar ,   Eilat   (01.08.14)
Nobody knows how the world will view this era in 10 yrs, 50 yrs or 100 yrs. It will almost certainly be in a completely different light to what we see today. Better to deal with the present the best way you know how...
18. The "comments" are more interesting than the article!
David ,   Israel   (01.08.14)
It seems that the people who post comments here have no clue about the real life here in Israel. If our Prime Minister is being a bit "not so right wing" and thus upsetting the right wing in his party, his government and more important to the survival of Israel, the people who commented here, its because he knows very well that Israel, not the USA, Europe, Australia, South Africa and so on, is facing total and complete isolation. Isolation more comprehensive that the sanctions on Apartheid South Africa. No, I am not a leftist but one on the center right who reads the hate propaganda on other major international news media. I watch hatred of Israel spewed out by Al-Jazeera, the BBC, SKYNews and the totally biased CNN! Yes we have many Nobel Laureates but what will happen when our children or grandchildren apply to study in the USA, the UK and other "friendly" countries and they are told they are Israelis and are barred? So we'll boycott products made in the EU but with our tiny market do you think they care? The Germans pulled out of a multimillion contract to build the Jerusalem train line, now delayed until 2020, and did they care? We have to face facts, whether we like it or not, the USA is all we have between us and sanctions that will be worse than those on Iran or North Korea. Its much easier to hate Jews than Iranians! Without the US Veto in the UN, well, you all know the answer and I have the feeling that Netanyahu also does! "It's good to be right but better to be wise".
19. Israel needs a "Charles de Gaulle" for
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (01.08.14)
... proposing a secure peace's agreement to Arab Palestines. It is impossible to send them to Jordan. Their State could exist, but through redrawed frontiers, and on being demilitarized, having only policemen. Some lands would be changed. The refered great President, of course, would act like it, as a Chief of the Jewish State. Nevertheless, if the "other side" didn't accept that, he would take all firm attitudes.
