1. It's a victory for Hamas
robert ,   antwerp belgium   (06.02.14)
But why be surprised? Obama has favored Islamic parties and revolutions in many Arab countries.Under his watch, Tunesia, Libya, Turkey and others have seen their governments replaced by Islamists. Egypt would also have if not the military. It was Obama who torpedoed Mubarak. Obama's father is aMuslim. So be prepared!
2. Obama is continuing his lawless dictatorial acts
C   (06.02.14)
obama is without doubt a dictator. the question is, where is congress???
3. I have a better idea ,...
split ,   US   (06.02.14)
It should be deducted it from handouts for Israel ;) ,...
4. I have never been so ashamed to call myself
A ,   Belgium   (06.02.14)
an American.
5. Big mistake
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (06.02.14)
Hamas is a terrorist organization that has American-Israeli blood on it's hands. I am shocked. This was the perfect opportunity to disengage from the "peace process" and he is effing it up by engaging with a terrorist organization.
6. Where is the messiah?
Observer   (06.02.14)
The world needs him now more than ever.
7. The new norwegian government...
Beary White ,   Norway   (06.02.14)
..., by our new FM Boerge Brende, will continue to support PA, unless Hamas "technocrats" do not have any position in the new government. !!! So, as Abu Masen have chosen some "independent" members of Hamas to have "minister" positions, then Norway will actually NOT support the "PA-government"? Unless it is a lie from the Norwegian government !??
8. Obama trying to provoke israel ?
Republican Observer   (06.02.14)
Obama maybe trying to provoke Israel. Israel should remain calm. As a matter of fact Bibi should make a statement saying the US has the right to continue to work with the Palestinians but Israel personally doesn't want to. This will make the Palestinians think that there was a secret agreement between the Us and Israel to get them to unite in order for them to stop throwing rockets at Israel. As long as Hamas does not fire missiles from gaza the status quo will remain. If Hamas throws rockets , Ramallah should be held responsible because Abbas "controls" gaza now.
9. Now the U.S. is funding a terrorist group.
Ben ,   USA   (06.02.14)
10. I am not surprised
Israeli 2   (06.02.14)
Why would the USA government not fund Hamas when Israel's government funds Hamas? Why would Obama and Kerry not be friendly with Hamas when Bibi and Tzipi are friendly with Hamas? We have a PM who is in bed with Obama!! Israel's PM just talks tough, but smooches with everyone.
11. Suprised anyone?
tiki ,   belgium   (06.02.14)
Before the end of his term, Obama & his administration will recognize the ""State of Palestine"" as a farewell present to Israel, which will make sure that Israel will never ever forget this Nobel peace prize winner, the backstabbing president of the USA.
12. Israel must annex area C, all settlement blocks
C   (06.02.14)
obama's next move will be voting in favour of admission of a so-called palestinian state on 1949 armistice lines as borders. he will do so regardless of congressional disapproval. israel must act before that happens. obama cannot be believed. he will break all promises and will do what he wants and at an accelerated pace. the man has a psychopathic personality. he has no conscience, no fear, and he is grandiose. he hates israel with an unreasonable passion.
13. Palestinian Unity Government
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
What BB, BBB, Birdy and Sarah B. are going to do and comment. I like to know. Peace cannot be processed with half of your enemy.
14. #12 Actually
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (06.03.14)
Obama has the attitude that the United States taxpayer pays Israel's bills. United States citizens paid with their lives US support of Israel on 9/11. Now Israel has to pay back some of that cost in American blood Meanwhile knowhere in the Israeli press is one report of the arrest warrants issued by Turkey today. I do hope the resipients enjoy holidaying on the Kinneret for the rest of their lives.
15. #41
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Make Aliyah and enjoy Israel's milk and honey. The US don't need guys like you.
16. #5
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Arafat had much more Israeli blood on his hands than Hamas and discussed peace with him. Ask Peres if I am wrong.
17. #6
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Ask Pontius Pilate and the Jewish Rabbis where the Messiah is.
18. #11
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
He sure will. Obama has to pay back for the Nobel Peace Prize he received and will recognize The State of Palestine before he leaves office.
19. There is no other choice
Harri ,   EU   (06.03.14)
If PA is not recognized and funded, it means one state model with over 4 million new Arab citizens for Israel. Hamas hasn't killed any Israelis for years although Israel has killed many Hamas members, so maybe you could also do some recalculations. Hamas sure hates you, but you cant blame them for that and if Hamas is ready to accept reality, maybe you should too?
20. Blessed are You, O Lord our God,
Erin ,   USA   (06.03.14)
who hallows us with His mitzvot and instructs us to recite Hallel. Israel, be strong. One more week, one more day...it's not much further, I will pray for you. May your blessings be full and your heart bowls be even fuller; May He who reigns look down upon you and see all that you are, and all that is in your bowl and praise you for all your hard work, and unanswered prayers, He sees them there and He answers them; never stop praying, it delights His Eyes. Thank you
21. When they have their next meeting (terrorists) we should
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.03.14)
swiftly level the building down, Abu Adolf Mazen et. al, then see what happens. Probably not much, except for loud noises & Arabs pulling out their hair. That of course, would take a real Leader on our part. Oh well....
22. NOW, NY ATTACKS FROM GAZA IS ON
IRANIAN JEW ,   LA USA   (06.03.14)
considered attack from WB. So PALIS just made it easier for any average Israeli to think that they really want peace. The charade goes on then. HAM ASS short ion cash and not they want the donation money. Once they get what they want then they throw PLO off the roofs again and then any chance or hope of any peace is just gone. AM ISRAEL CHAI
23. Told you so -- we'll Bibi, tough choice ahead
James ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Been watching Obamas behavior in congress for some time. He has been blocking pro israel votes and/or preventing them to come up for a vote. You can bet, he will instruct the UN ambassador to abstain or to vote pro palestinian when they apply. Kerry is already working that end.. Only solution is to shock the US by withdrawing its Israli ambassador. The Republican Party will be ready and waiting to start impeachment proceedings. Democrats will not be able to step in the fray. Do it now before the UN voting starts because Obama will be dealing his cards from a marked deck. This is prophecy that has its ear to the insiders of Washington.
24. sleeping with the enemy!
tiki ,   belgium   (06.03.14)
The West has completely lost it's moral compass. AGAIN!
25. #11 Actually, bumpkin, Oblabla should return
A ,   Belgium   (06.03.14)
his Nobel Prize as he has done nothing to deserve it. And why are you repeating your old posts, has your limited mental capacity reached its limit?
26. #4 Of course the US don't need guys like me
A ,   Belgium   (06.03.14)
They need ignorant bumpkins as yourself to entertain the rest of us with your ignorance and stupidity while sucking the teat of the fat American cow.
27. NOW, ANY ATTACK FORM GAZA IS
iRANIAN JEW ,   LA USA   (06.03.14)
considered an attack from WB and PA. So PALIS just made it easier for any average Israeli to think that they really do not want peace. The charade goes on then. Once HAM ASS gets the money from the Iranian masters and EU, they will throw FATAH off the roofs again. AM ISRAEL CHAI
28. Obama's true face!
Eli Bodie ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Once again, Obama shows his true colors: betraying Israel! Now, Netanyahu needs to reciprocate by--build-baby-build! He needs to start a massive building program; along with annexing all of Judea and Samaria. That would REALLY piss the world community off big-time. He should cut ties with the US; he doesn't need Obama and his miscreants--period! God will take-care of Israel! Israeli leadership needs to wake-up!
29. Wake up Israel ! Your enemies are
DT ,   TA Israel   (06.03.14)
not only on your borders but are In Europe AND THE US. How long must you "make believe" they are your friends
30. #15
Harold ,   USA   (06.03.14)
Should read #4 and not #41.
