Bibi must be a moron if he thinks releasing 400 terrorists is useful to Israel. Keeping Abbas 'at the table' is a waste of time since only Abbas is getting anything out of these talks. The PA has gotten concessions from Israel that would make one think Israel had lost all the Arab-inflicted wars. Enough appeasing, Bibi! Draw the freaking border and guard it. The PA wants to draw this out for 20 years- just as the Koran instructs. Abbas is a closet jihadist, so treat him as one. Ask the Jews of Mecca and Medina how well the Muslims can be trusted. Nothing has changed.

trio against the Jews.

What is Israel negotiating for? They are already dead in the water and you want to put more murders on the street to attack you when the negotiations fail? The longer this goes on, the greater the mistrust. What is Abbas prepared to do other than suck terrorists on the street, make himself into a hero and then go to the UN. Bibi, you have failed your people.

Obama failed everywhere: china, korea, phillipines, japan, afghanistan, iraq, russia, and of course, turkey, syria, lebanon, iraq, iran egypt, bahrain, saudi and libya. His only hope is to push the Jews to suicide. Instead of helping Obama, Netanyahu should attack: publicise the Obamacare death counsels that will decide who will live and who will die at the whim of their political masters.

NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the Arabs want to talk peace, let them come to the table and talk peace, now. But, why should any side - Arab or Jewish - pay for the pleasure of talking about that which is of the mutual interest of both. Only an Obama administration is capable of pushing the Jews in this direction of extortion.

What does Abbas give up? Show me any confession by the PA. All the US has done is support the PA and browbeat Isreal. I would hope the cabinet rejects this move and shows the unity it will need when the displaced Jordanians attack its citizens.

Pure fiction. its not going to happen.

Where is the Justice or sane rationale for giving in to Abbas demands to release terrorist murders in exchange for what? Maybe for promises for Israels Security which will be entrusted to the Arab League or the UN! Sadly for the Jewish People Bibi's demands are kept secret.

Not impressed by Hansen. Germany was pretty much 'vanquished ' in 1918. Much good it did for everyone. And what is meant by 'really vanquished'? Utterly destroyed, people and all? Of course, with unintended consequences in a thermo-nuclear age, that is precisely what can happen - on a global scale. You want that? In any case, history might be a good servant - but is certainly a bad master.

The supposedly tough Right wing proves to be even more fearful of the US than the the Left. Netanyahu talks tough when in the opposition but caves in as Prime Minister when a little pressure put on him.

Freeing Mr. Pollard has nothing to do with the Israeli-Arab peace-process. Nothing. It is absolutely insane to release him at such an exorbitant price or to return even one terrorist murderer for him. As best as I understand it, It is forbidden to do so in accordance with the Halacha.

In which he will eventually appear and proclaim himself to be God.

OK. Pollard is released. Terrorist murderers are released and get parties and streets & squares named after them. The PA *still* does not recognize Israel as the Jewish National home, the PA and rejection entities cocntinue to stockpile and fire missiles and perform other acts of violence against Israel. The concept of Jews living in Judea-Samaria is rejected and scorned and the forever threat of another intafada is hanged over the "Peace process" like whatzisname's sword. The Israelis once again give in for no real participation by Abbas and more Jews are denied the ability to build and reside in their own historical homeland. How very freaking perverse is that? The only positive outcome is John EFFEN Kerry quasi tresonous Viet Nam war era scuzzball gets time off for another botox jab in his quest for a part in the next Batman film as Joker". Bibi? A long "vaycay" is needed and let someone with baytzim run the show until things are sorted.

#44. The Dresden bombing of the German transportation centre took place in WWII, not WWI. I've given you specific evidence of the necessity to vanquish the enemy but you put forth no contradictory evidence, just more cliches. Here are further illustrations: Because Mongols utterly destroyed their enemy city-states which opposed them, they achieved peaceful resolutions to most of the other states they conquered, which, of course, feared them. The Mongols allowed those they conquered to retain their respective cultures as long as they remained loyal and paid benefits (taxes). The Romans did the same while conquering most of Europe. When Moses and his troop of Jews fled Egypt, he insisted that all the enemies of the Jewish people be utterly decimated. Merciful? No. But those are the realistic scenarios if you wish to survive. At one time, the Israeli pioneers understood this way of thinking. Now, like you, many have become soft with the spread of the kind of (faux) liberalism in which you, yourself, indulge. The first law, however, is to survive! You do not comprehend this, Bertram because an essential to your education is lacking.

It is ironic that the British think themselves so educated, sophisticated and intellectual, yet opinion varies from person to person in microscopic measure. The entire nation is a hive mind of irrational liberalism dedicated to involuntary spewing of vileness and hatred toward Israel, interspersed with bouts of axes thrown wildly at reality. Enjoy your embrace of Islam in London.

The tears of joy will only come after seeing him touch down in the Holy Land.

Israel receives more aid from America than America gives to the ten poorest countries in the world combined. The average Israeli lives as comfortably as the average American yet we continue to allow a country the size of New Jersey to dictate our foreign policy. It has influenced our politicians so much that many of them supported the war in Iraq because that's what Israel wanted, made accepting the dictatorship in Egypt by America a reality because that's what Israel wanted, and has influenced the peace talks by John Kerry so much that America has bent over acquiescing to every single demand of the Israeli government including keeping 90% of the settlements which the rest of the world, including America, has declared illegal. Whenever a politician criticizes the continued expropriation of Palestinian land they are called an anti-semite and the lobby AIPAC continues to put the needs of Israel over the needs of America despite the fact that AIPAC is an American run and American member only lobby. Jonathan Pollard knew exactly what he was doing when he sold the secrets of his country to Israel. He supplied highly classified information that he stole from his own country, America. To blackmail the Obama administration into freeing Pollard so Netanyahu can continue his procastination with no hope of ever ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict makes me, a supporter of Obama, ashamed. Does Obama stand for anything or does he cave in to every foreign leader?

Looks like we have a new symbosium in the PA; Abu Masen, Sotero, Meshaal. The Islamic-cult-followers are sticking together in an conglomerate of destruction.

goes through, Bibi should step down. It's a horrible deal. Kerry and Obama are out to destroy Israel!

any convicted mass murderers.

Bibi isn't at fault Obama & Kerry are. When the US dictates terms to Israel its very difficult to say no because Israel needs the US for everything from military aid - political support in the UN so if Obama & Kerry lay down the law Bibi has to agree but just try find a face saving measure. Abbas has told Kerry & Obama thats what he demands and the two stooges say ok and tell Bibi you have got to give this because Abbas has demanded it how about as a face saving gesture we give you Jonathan Pollard, take it or leave it we intend to see Abbas gets what he wants. Obama wants a legacy, Kerry wants to be next president so he wants something he can boast about before the election. They know Israel can be bullied but Abbas cannot so when Abbas says jump the Obama & Kerry say how high because they are thinking about their own careers not getting a good deal.
