1. Looks like US Jews will help us about as much as they did...
Play it again Sam ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (02.14.14)
in WW2. Holocaust never would have happened if US Jews cared more about their brothers and sisters in Europe than they did their status in the goy community and their money.
2. Bibi, PLEASE tear up that letter !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (02.14.14)
It's not worth the paper written upon it.
3. Also a bunch of anti-semites, these people...
Gunnar ,   Gothnburg, Sweden   (02.14.14)
...who've signed this letter?????
4. Jewish Anti-semites
Canada   (02.14.14)
Self hating Jews who cower to the great empire of the USA. We have heard the phrase before: There will be peace in our time", Who believes it? Americans who live far away from the reality of living in Israel beyond Tel Aviv
5. Jewish suport for Kerry plan
Ike ,   Chicago, USA   (02.14.14)

(02.14.14)
8. Just a bunch of imperialist Dems . WE DON' T CARE !
Fabien   (02.14.14)
9. Abortionists continue to hack away at the problem
Leon   (02.14.14)
The main problem as they see it, is how to prevent the birth of Jewish (and other) children. Their principal weapons are: burning to death, hacking into pieces, and voting for the Democratic (so-called) party. These faux Jews are such in name only and will burn in hell, and it's a good thing too!
10. 70 years and nothing changed
Tomas ,   New york   (02.14.14)
Those are the same leaders and there organizations tha 70 years ago where quite about Nazis and supported president Rooswelt to cover up for Nazis and actually work agains Jews who were fighting Nazis. Israel should never listen to there advise.
11. DO THESE US LEFT WINGERS KNOW THE PRICE?
stude ham   (02.14.14)
we're not talking dollars... we're talking the total future of an Israel torn to pieces for the sake of a piece of a Kerry-on baggage.
12. List
Sam Tayar ,   CANADA   (02.14.14)
This list is almost a carbon copy of that which recommended the release of Jonathan Pollack................. Should it ignored or respected?
13. The 2 state peace solution is humbug.
Israeli 2   (02.14.14)
Nor the Palis nor the real Jews want it. So why pretend? 1) annex everything 2) Return the Palis to Jordan 3) Live life in true Peace.
14. Support
howiej ,   NJ/USA   (02.14.14)
How can all of these intelligent individuals support Kerry's peace proposals when they don't know the final contents of his proposals? Wait until you see all of the parts of the agreement before you give your blessings.
15. these are obama's people
CJK   (02.14.14)
these are the people who with their public advocacy, their large contributions, have supported obama for the presidency. these are the people who keep supporting and trusting a man who is a pathological liar and a violator of laws and indeed of the us constitution. obama's people ignore the grave danger that surrounds the jewish state from all sides. they ignore hamas, islamic jihad, the army of god, al qaeda, hezbollah, the shia terror state and its terror proxies. these far left elitists trust obama on his capitulation deal with iran, despite the fact that it is useless and despite the fact that there is a thirty page secret annex. these people do not explain why they suppport a man who has secret deals and who has made iran into a world power, while presiding over a horrific genocide in syria. they ignore his dictatorial tendencies and his support of islamists like the muslimbrotherhood. obama's people live in an echo chamber where obama's words are magnified and his actions are ignored.
16. Will the Arabs accept Jews Best offer.
Zechariah   (02.14.14)
The Best offer of the Jews is a Demilitirized Palestinian State in Judae and Samaria on the West Bank of the Jordan East Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital Us NATO Troops in the Jordan Valley and a symbolic Right of return with the Land swap for the Main Jewih settlement blocks.
17. We live in Israel You live in US. So IT'S NOT UR BUSINESS !
Frederic   (02.14.14)
18. US Jews love palestinians so help them to come to live in US
(02.14.14)
19. STOP US IMPERIALISM !
(02.14.14)
20. All Liberals and Liberal Rabbis don't count
Eyal ,   USA Israel   (02.14.14)
21. Why Don't these 150 Jewish Americans
(02.14.14)
Move to Eilat or Ashdod or anywhere else where Rockets and Motars Rain Down On Innocent Israeli's and then see What The Realities On The Ground are?
22. Where's the other letter..,
Rhonda ,   Chicago, USA   (02.14.14)
Did they write a letter to Abbas too? A letter that outlines the compromises he has to make?
23. Letter to Netanyahu
Janice ,   Mobile usa   (02.14.14)
As an American Jew, I can assure you that these rich, ultra reform, ultra leftist Jews speak only for themselves and not for anyone else. It wouldn't surprise me onebit if the Muslim, antiSemitic Obama...or some of his colleagues or acquaintances, are behind this letter of support for Kerry and it'sblatant attempt to influence Netanyahu to accept anything and everything that Kerry/Obama state in order to assure that Israel and the Jewish people commit suicide by their acquiesence in this heinous scheme/Framework agreement. Does Netanyahu really want his legacy to be that of the prime minister that allowed the complete destruction of his own people both in Israel and worldwide. If Israel rolls over in this matter and gives in to Obama/Kerry and the Arabs, the rest of the world will get the idea that Jewish destruction, by whatever means, is acceptable. Think about it...antiSemitism is on the rise because of the EU, Turkey, Iran, etc. and especially Obama and Kerry's actions and statements and are being allowed to get away with them. There has to be some Jewish fury and antagonistic action taken toward these Holocaustic entities and it has to be strong and plentiful enough to stop these inciters in their tracks. Netanyahu's actions and statements are being ignored. For him to allow Kerry and Obama to stuff their wants and desires and support of the Arabs down Israel's and the Jewish people's throats is unconscionable and unforgivable. Netanyahu needs to be replaced.
24. American Jews back Kerry
Richard ,   USA   (02.14.14)
These people are Progressive Democrates first, and supporters of the Jewish Homeland, "maybe later". These are the ones who absurdly and sadly voted for Obama knowing full well that he is no ally of Israel and that he would facilitate Iran in obtaining nuclear bombs. In short they are a disgrace.
25. Kerry would like to shove a Pal state down Israel's throat
Sam ,   Canada   (02.14.14)
Kerry , the great friend of Israel, would like to shove a Palestinian state down Israel's throat but he can't get Palestinians to accept the bare minimum. So much for his peacemaking. Palestinian pronouncements have already made it clear that they reject a Jewish (majority) Israel and are just looking for free concessions.
26. Support for peace
Anshel ,   Canada   (02.14.14)
The balance approach requires that such letter is also delivered to Abbas. Without a partner one cannot negotiate a peace deal. Can these business people negotiate a deal without a partner? I don't think so. Noticeably absent from the signatories of he letter are leaders of the modern Zionist orthodoxy, it would have been more meaningful. Or, they understand that concession by one party (Israel) cannot bring lasting peace and therefore the misguided effort of the Jewish elite is meaningless, specially with someone from the Left, like Mr. David Axelrod.
27. Write to the Danish Prime Minister Instead
Michael ,   Sharon Region, Israe   (02.14.14)
Stop interfering with Israel's security. Jews living in America have no right to preach to the democratically elected Israeli government about its policy with the peace negotiations. Israel has learned the hard way the danger of succumbing to International Pressure, and our southern cities are under constant threat of rocket attacks from the Gaza. You are welcome to show real support and come and live here, send your children to the Army, pay taxes and vote in elections. Why don't you write the the Prime Minister of Denmark instead to protest at the outrageous selective banning of Shechita in a country that is know for its abuse of animal rights
28. I wonder...
David ,   Haifa   (02.14.14)
...how many commenters and Israeli officials will label these outstanding men and women anti-Semites, Jewish self-haters etc.
29. dont listen to these so called jews
ethel ,   ny us   (02.14.14)
these so called jews are just looking out for themselves.they want to be accepted by the world.they want to continue living in their mansions and drive fancy cars.they are all self serving jews.they are willing to sacrifice you in order to live their luxorious life.dont listen to them they are not your friends.America is getting fed up with them because the want to destroy the fabric of america now they want to destroy Israel.
30. dont let these elitist pressure you
ethel ,   ny us   (02.14.14)
netanyahu must withstand the pressure coming from obama. obama will be out of office soon but once you give up the land it is gone forever.Dont let listen to these hellenistic jews who are trying to give away true jewish land.Peace for Peace.Remember their are many true christians in america who support you 100 million strong.These liberal so called jews are only looking out for themselves.They are not part of the great jewish nation and true jews.
