31. must never divide JERUSALEM or it will be the end of JUDAISM
ethel ,   ny us   (02.14.14)
The false nations attempt to divide JERUSALEM by saying their is an east JERUSALEM. There is no such thing as an east JERUSALEM or WEST JERUSALEM.There is only 1 JERUSALEM the capitol of Israel city of David.Just like the try to erase the name JUDEA and SAMARIA by calling it the west bank.Dont by into their lies and propoganda.
32. First, the letter is meaningless pablum, and
Baruch ,   Boston, USA   (02.14.14)
second, most of those people probably represent the left-leaning liberal side of American Judaism, probably associated with J Street. Israel needs to be stronger than these people would expect, and the Arabs need to understand that we are there, we are Jewish, and we now have a JEWISH state, and we aren't leaving all, if any, of the territories they demand.
33. These are the same progressives
paulD ,   Jerusalem   (02.14.14)
that supported the Human Abuse of dismantling communities in Gaza. IF ONLY we get rid of the settler communities in Gaza we will thrive, and awe the world with our sacrifices for peace. These are the same people that scream at Israel every time the degenerate world accuses it of some horrific blood-libel. Ignore the fools.
34. And what say David Bronfman?
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (02.14.14)
He loves the land of his own name and those who at least not only live in it, but fight for their morasha. These Rabbi and machers you speak of do neither. Even the wonderful Nathan Straus would not help arm those who love the land for fear those that come to kill them would seek help in his infirmaries. The JF of NA, WJC, AJC's, ADL, JINSA and AIPAC's of the world rarely help those who love the land, actually live in it to protect the morasha of klal Yisroel agaisnt the genoccidal mass murdering extortionists who should have their right of return enforced back to the homicidal Hamite peninsular homeland of their own name. That would be humane Mr. Straus so they won't have to be killed when the come to kill your people that you would not even help protect themselves..
35. Give in to terrorists for o-bum-a? Clearly NO!
Bunnie Meyer   (02.14.14)
36.  I can get you thousands of Rabbis that will state
Nachman   (02.14.14)
It is forbidden to give an inch of land when the security of Israel is involved. Look in code of Jewish Law Siman 329. Ask any general in the army what it would take to protect Israel if G-D forbid Israel goes to the 67 borders. Aba Eban called it the Aushwitz Borders.
37. 150 out of 5,000.000
SEAHAG9 ,   LOS ANGELES CA   (02.14.14)
Those 150 speak for no-one. There are today no rabbis who are recognized as Jewish leaders the PM should disregard any input from so-called leaders and do everything to preserve Israel. Let the Arabs sue for peace and let Kerry go home.
38. "if you cannot say something nice about someone, don't say
tom ,   tel aviv   (02.14.14)
anything" goes the old saying. I wish there was something positive to be said in regard of these "prominent" US Jews. After their support for Obama TWICE, I'm afraid there is no mitigating circumstances....But then again: they're repeating their WW2 role. "It's Deja Vu all over again" :-)) So one CAN be Jewish & utterly stupid at the same time?!
39. letter
patrick ,   london   (02.14.14)
two country one in jorden and one on east side of the river israel you stay in the us and you do not have a say it is up to you to soport us but do not dictet on srael understend
40. They're followers & not leaders!
David ,   Shiloh Israel   (02.14.14)
How dare they claim to be leaders of the Jewish people when they would sell our Jewish Homeland out, just to satisfy their own sense of false belonging in the Diaspora? They deserve to be evicted from their makeshift houses, and not us Jews living in parts of Israel they think doesn't belong to us, based on falsified claims. True Jews know that we owe our Judaism to a higher autrhority than President Obama and John Kerry. True Jews know that they are also the Children of Israel, and not any other nation. I trust that such false claimants to Jewish leadership get to really understand what Judaism and the Jewish Homeland are really about? It's certainly not about selling out our people living in Israel, just to make them feel good about being a loyal outsider. Shame on them
41. USA Petitioners haver no right to influence
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (02.14.14)
USA Jews put Obama in the WH. USA Jews are sitting comfortably where they are. Only Israelis subject to service and living on the land have a say
42. that same group of Jews
David ,   On this planet   (02.14.14)
wants Israel to commit suicide just to look good in the eyes of the current administration and the world. Netanyahu should tell them to save their own skin, They caused enough trouble, Israel will take care of their own people
43. Over 150 American Chamberlains
Dan ,   USA   (02.14.14)
All "Jews" who want peace even if it means the annihilation of Israel. Peace at any price.
44. Open letter to Bibi...
yosef, phd ,   florida - israel   (02.14.14)
It is hard to believe, that intelligent U.S Jews seem to mistake kerry's vainglorious ignorance with "extraordinary resolve", abbas's murderous invective with "peaceful intentions",-- and this is from no less personality than Alan Dershovitz ?! We are indeed our own worst enemies. and I sympathize w/ Bibi for being subjected to this Jewish-american leftist crap - a true fifth column, supportive of Israel's sworn enemies in the M.E.
45. Kerry remains desperate for relevance
Devorah   (02.14.14)
And for 150 traitor "Jews" to prop up a lying, antisemitic goy who is only interested in the destruction of Israel is unconscionable. No doubt Obama is behind this. May these 150 never set foot in Israel again.
46. I bet you I can find more then 150 peoplel
Zoe ,   los angeles   (02.14.14)
to sign a letter discouraging cooperation with Kerry. Jewish realtors, dentist and college professor are not qualified here.
47. LOL Are these great talkbacks or what?
Cameron ,   USA   (02.14.14)
You sullen kids you.
48. the Jewish rabbi's & philantropists from the US
tiki ,   belgium   (02.14.14)
Don't have to live with the consequences of their 'peace mission. I'm sure Israeli leaders are intelligent & clever & experienced enough to know what's 'good for the Jews...in Israel, which makes it 'good for the Jews in the rest of the world.
49. letter
(02.14.14)
Bronfman, paymaster of Netanyahu-hating, father of disaster Peres. Axelrod, advisor to the Obama regime that called Israel the source of all problems, personally humiliated Netanyahu and spent 4 years supporting Iran, Syria, Hamas and Fatah against Israel. President of Reform Judaism, a movement that receives money from the anti-Israel NIF and is identified with Meretz. Why would Netanyahu care about this letter?
50. Useful Idiots
Andrew ,   USA   (02.14.14)
It doesn't matter to them because they are completely detached from the consequences of the situation. This is what it looks like when you meddle in others' affairs when you have no business doing so. If you really think (Israelis or otherwise) that giving more land to a people whose sole religious obligation is to destroy the you will bring peace, you need to have your head examined and you have learned nothing from the Holocaust.
51. "leaders" meaning "tycoons" defunded Beitar Ierushalaim.
Miron ,   USA   (02.14.14)
52. They DONT live in Israel....
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!! ,   United States   (02.14.14)
they have no vote or stake in Israel their view is tainted by 1- nonresidency 2- Liberalism. Ignore them KEEP BUILDING ISRAEL FOR JEWS !!
53. Am i suprised
Rod ,   Fargo N.Dakota   (02.14.14)
The typical Jewish leftist Dems.They swear allegiance to the Dem party and their Ceaser.I bet none of these rich leftists ever served in the U.S.Military.They represent no one but themselves.
54. Slowly the wheel turns - and so it should.
