1. Too stupid to live, really
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.18.14)
Abbas' comments were the most outrageous, self-serving lies he has ever told. I note, too, that he deliberately waited until today to make them because he is at the Islamic Conference of Foreign Ministers today -- in Jeddah. This was not an announcement intended for a "palestinian" audience, and I am quite certain that there is a virtual news blackout in the "palestine" authority and in Gaza, of course, with respect to these comments. Ms. Livni evidently is too obtuse to have noticed that we have had nearly a week of silence while Abbas was in Ramallah; and a gushing apologia and plea .... while in Jeddah. Abbas is behind the kidnappings. He's trying to hang on long enough to leverage a prisoner release from Israel. Livni may fall for his shtick, but I don't think very many others do. It's time to take the kid gloves off, and deal with the "palestinians" the way one deals with a violent, terrorist rabble.
2. Are you still so naive?
Larry ,   Or yehuda   (06.18.14)
No wonder you went from a huge part to a negligible one and maybe wiped it in the next elections
3. Vote Abu Livni to be next president of the PA
zionist forever   (06.18.14)
Abu Livni is constantly siding with the PA and condemning Bibi for not making enough effort over the peace process saying she will quit the coalition of Bibi doesn't reengage the peace process. Now she praises Abbas because he makes a speech for the ears of the Americans and Europeans who are starting to demand he takes action. He didn't condemn it he said it was not in our interest and so they should be returned. Livni though praises him for it. Abbas claims he wants to stand down at the next presidential election, Livni has no real future in Israeli politics and she is constantly praising and apologising for PA terror so let her stand for the PA presidency where she can thrive.
4. Only naive Livni would trust Abbas the head of Fatah.
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
Abbas is a known liar talking with a forked tongue. He should be put through a polygraph test because more likely than not it was his group who was behind the kidnapping and then perhaps transferred the boys over to Hamas if they're not hidden among Fatah terrorists.
5. I don't believe a word of it
Tova ,   Canada   (06.18.14)
This is not about the teenage boys kidnapping. This is called Islam and the distruction of Israel. This is all a politcal crap. Islam does not recognize Israel. Islam does not recognize Christianity. The Peace Plan will fail. The teenage boys will be used as a bargaining chip. Abbas has joined Hamas - what does that tell you.
6. Where are the boys ?
Paul ,   K   (06.18.14)
Try Jordan, not kidding.
7. HOW ON THIS EARTH....
les ,   canada   (06.18.14)
can the israeli government, specially natanyahu tolerate that arab loving, silly, leftie nerd to be even associated with the government of israel. this is so EMBARRASSING..
8. prisoners: no visits, reduced meals, no congregating, no com
ralph   (06.18.14)
communications with anyone or with outside world.
9. Abbas far from Perfect but better
Zechariah   (06.18.14)
Abbas is far from perfect but ought be Strengthened for a Less Violent Ridden path to The Long Truce .
10. Oh give me a break !
Mike ,   NZ   (06.18.14)
My answer to this would be ... Return these kids unharmed within 24hrs or face the following 1) 1000 more homes to be built in so called West Bank or 2) annexation of East Jerusalem . . Take your pick !
11. Firing disastrous Livni is crucial. Let's demand it!
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
Abbas is a Holocaust denying mass murderer, who should hang. He has no importance beyond that. Nor do hid words. It is not surprising that Abbas is praised by disastrous Livni. Every action Livni has taken, in her political career, harmed Israel. She has no business representing Israel in any capacity. Firing her is crucial. Everyone who loves Israel should demand it.
12. deeds, actions, results not words livni. grow up. or leave
ralph   (06.18.14)
13. Livni is another liberal idiot.....
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (06.18.14)
What Abbas said holds as much weight as Obama saying "If you like your insurance you can keep your insurance. It's just empty words
14. Let's swap this traitor for our three boys
Chaim Schonbrun ,   Brooklyn ny   (06.18.14)
This traitorous self hating leftist traitor Should be exchanged for our three boys,let her go to Gaza to her terrorist lovers,in any other normal country this traitor would never bee a minister but would be hanging from the gallows
15. "want to destroy Palestinians"-I get it!: We've done it!
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.18.14)
Livni can be counted on, when looking for idiotic statements, asinine behaviour.
16. Would Livni have the courage to sit in Abbas car?
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
Wouldn't she fear being captured by the Head Fatah terrorist?
17. Tzipi is playing politics with lives of teenage boys
CJK   (06.18.14)
abbas is essentially a nobody.
18. The Zipperette is intensly more
Gideon Reader   (06.18.14)
loyal to her enemies; those who would happily stone her to death or behead her than to the political opposition of her own nation. Giveret Gump, Forrest's Ima was so right. "Stupid IS as stupid DOES." Who exactly authorizes her independent extranational diplomacy.
19. Praising Abbas?
Erudite ,   Australia   (06.19.14)
Maybe we should praise Hitler for being a vegetarian and his love of animals too.
20. Livni makes me sick
arnold   (06.19.14)
It took oh so long to get rid of olmert with his lousy policies of appeasement. Livni has been doing pretty much the same for 8 years and we are utterly sick of this woman. She is dumb, dumb, dumb. As for the collection of self hating jews-burg, oz, the whole staff of haaretz, they would in my opinion have given hitler a clean bill of health. how do jews become such grovelling sycophants who kiss the sultan's ass. Livni makes me sick.
21. @#% what?
Steve ,   USA   (06.19.14)
She must be attending the Obama White House staff meetings or something (great psychedelics being passed around)

24. To: Mike at No. 10
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.19.14)
Mike, dear, East Jerusalem and West Jerusalem were unified in late June 1967. The "palestinians" -- along with most of the world -- do not recognize unified Jerusalem, but that is their problem, not Israel's. Return the children unharmed within 24 hours, or we start to bulldoze the Arab intfested area of Hebron, Ramallah, Jenin and Schehem, not leaving one brick standing upon the other. Judea and Samaria will be annexed in their entirety, and the illegal "ppalestinian" squatters therein will be deported to Gaza, where they can work on building their magical, mystery "state." No need to use threats of building homes for Jews in Judea and Samaria -- Judea and Samaria will be exclusively Jewish. It's about time, too.
25. #1 who are you calling stupid?
(06.19.14)
Livni is earning more a month by making these "stupid" comments at the behest of Obama than you are earning in a year. Who are you calling stupid?

Very much in love, no matter what the Tsipomonster sez or duz...
