1. AAH DID NOT WIRETAP THAT MAN
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED OBVIOUS   (05.31.14)
But I did inhale.....
2. WIRETAP SHMIRETAP ....
JAMES YOSI BOND ,   SAFED OO7   (05.31.14)
The Transcript is as follows : Clinton ( C ) to Assad ( A ) " Yo Mr President how's it going man ? " Assad ( A ) to Clinton (C ) " I don't know Mr President " C to A : " Aah have not spoken to y'all for some time bro '" A to C " yes I have missed you bro " "Do you thing the is-ra-el-is will return the Golan to the syrian people Billy boy ? " C to A " When hell freezes over inshallah bro' " "Too bad my friend and I believe you when you say you did not inhale and did not splash out on a new dress ."
3. Additional taxes on the poor are necessary
Leon   (05.31.14)
I recommend ratcheting up the war on the poor, more taxes, more government bureaucracies, more government control. That can speed up the elites' despoilment of all Israeli assets so they can retire to their off-shore villas when the time comes to abandon Israel completely to her fate.
4. Bregman cites "unnamed 'private sources' "
C   (05.31.14)
bregman cites "unnamed 'private sources' " for the material he provides. such unnamed private sources could easily be american. the americans undoubtedly recorded conversations with the syrians and by the syrians. indeed, bregman admits, "i din't know at the time--and i'm not sure now--how the listening was made." yet, despite his admitted ignorance, bregman refers throughout his book to "israeli agents" justifying such unsupported reference with a manipulative excuse stating, "i wanted something simple and general to help the reader and make the text fluent ...NSA [and] Unit 8200 is just too complicated." so bregman consciously uses israeli and american spy agencies interchangably and refers to both as "israeli agents." it is indisputable that bregman's sole aim is to harm israel and to harm israel's relations with the united states.
5. what we learn from the transcripts
C   (05.31.14)
provided that the transcripts are not fabrications, we learn that the clinton administration was much more sympathetic to the totalitarian assad regime than to the democratic state of israel. then, as now, the americans were unduly influenced by arab concerns.
6.  ISRAEL DOES NOT WIRETAP
DA RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED RAP HOUSE   (05.31.14)

I don't mean no disrespect ,across this nation ,we got better stuff to do than listen in to his mundane conversation . let's end this sorry caper ,Israel gets its juicy info from da NEWSPAPER .
7. Golan Heights will remain Israeli
C   (05.31.14)
had the various american administrations succeeded in bullying israel to transfer the golan heights to the syrians, then today we would have al qaeda and hezbollah washing their filthy feet in lake kineret and committing acts of terror throughout northern israel. the americans should stop meddling in the affairs of israel. they have only made the situation infinitely worse.
8. Wherefore art thou, Hillary?
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (05.31.14)
Oh please - here's another desperate tactic to mislead public disgust/distrust of HillaryBengazi-ly as she =choke= prepares to "run" for presidente of los estados unidos.
9. Even 2000Peace Plan Unattainable
Zechariah   (05.31.14)
The 2000 Peace Initiative had no hope as the Palestinians wanted return to Jaffa and Haia after they denied right of Escape of Jews from Genocide in Eurpe and rejected The 1947 Partition Plan.War against the 1947 Partition Plan produced the Refugees from Jaffa Haifa and against Israel 1948 from Ramleh Lod the Galil and Negev.
10. 6
CJK   (05.31.14)
israel listens in on the syrians. that is just normal since syrians are mortal enemies. if syrians talk to western leaders, they might also get recorded. that, too, is normal. this book by bregman and the article in newsweek are meant to harm israel and relations between israel and the united states. hopefully bregman will never again be allowed into israel.
11. Steinitz denied his culapabilty for .....
Jim Yakamoto ,   My Country   (06.01.14)
42 dead in the Carmel Fire Disaster! So why should we believe anything he says? In any case, Newsweek has historically, with others like CNN, the New york Times, Time Magazine, and many others which kowtow to the Arabs. tried and, in many cases succeeded, to vilify Israel. They are far more concerned about dragging Israel through the mud than the atrocities committed by Muslims against Muslims and other heinous acts committed in the name of Islam!
