(07.23.14)
2. Why was he allowed to land?Obama is behind the no fly policy
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.23.14)
3. This is the same coalition supported by the Obama/Kerry duo
N.L.Katz ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (07.23.14)
that is eager to appease the Islamists of Hamas.
4. Kerry lands in Israel?
Jessica ,   Jerusalem Israel   (07.23.14)
How did he fly in? Didnt he command the FAA to stop flights to and from Israel, essentially putting pressure on Israel to accept a ceasfire.
5. Hamas - no favors, please. We've got our own conditions.
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (07.23.14)
6. Kerry did not prohibit himself from flighing into Israel
K   (07.23.14)
only ordinary people are prohibited from flying into Israel.
7. Bibi should not meet with Kerry
David ,   Montreal, Canada   (07.23.14)
Kerry's comment that Israel is targeting civilians, and now asking Israel to put it's pants down, is just enough of that BS. It's seems that Obama and Kerry's montor must be Erdogan.
8. Ask Kery
eli ,   Yerushalayim   (07.23.14)
Time to ask Kerry, Ban Ki Moon and all the other supporters of a so called "Two state solution", if they really want a 2nd Gaza, but bigger and even worse.
9. Palestinians will NEVER stop fighting for liberty & freedom!
palestinian ,   las vegas   (07.23.14)
Apartheid israel must understand that things will only get worse if they refuse an independent and sovereign state of Palestine, as stipulated by various UN resolutions.
10. Kerry keep flying inspite of flight Ban
Hammer   (07.23.14)
11. So, how is it ONLY Kerry can use the Ben Gurion Airport?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (07.23.14)
Don't tell me, let me guess, he's an ally of Hamas. Maybe he can persuade his Hamas friends to end the war they began so there's no pretense of closing Ben Gurion Airport? OHama must really hate Israel, nice to know it's mutual, so do most Americans.
12. Tsk Tsk if he came through Ben Gurion?
Roland ,   london England   (07.23.14)
13. Obviously......
Michael Weimann ,   New Zealand   (07.23.14)
.........three-faced Kerry flew in by EL AL. On Obama's orders. It's a sort of back-handed compliment. But probably not an intentional one,
14. Chamberlain is coming -
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (07.23.14)
- risen from the death but, har nothing learned from History. He should go back to where He came from. Arn.Sweden.
15. Israel's Cease-Fire Conditions
Jason, Ph.D. ,   Charlotte, USA   (07.23.14)
Israel should only accept a cease-fire if there is an ironclad plan to disarm the Gaza Strip and keep it disarmed. Otherwise, all Israel's sacrifices will have been for nothing. Any deal that allows Hamas to continue to have rockets and build tunnels should be rejected out of hand. Hamas should really be regarded as a cult. There is really no fundamental difference between Hamas and al-Quada. Furthermore, here is a question for our lovely radical Islamist readers. Isn't deliberately putting civilians in harms way against Islamic Law? I could not be more certain that Hamas' actions are completely contrary to the will of Allah. You see, it turns out that God is disdainful of murderers and thugs who cowardly hide behind civilians.
16. take kerry out for coffee long coffee let him cool his heels
ralph   (07.23.14)
17. NO NO NO
Moshe ,   Givataim   (07.23.14)
No ceasefire under this conditions.... Why did our soldiers died? What did they gave their lifes for then? Only ones HAMAS is destroyed there will be peace for Gaza and us.
18. Peace
James ,   USA   (07.23.14)
Abbas has joined Hamas and must be treated as a war crminal and not a diplomat or the leader of any legitamate orginazation. As a war criminal, he must be arrested and tried as such in Israeli courts. Take of the gloves and let Israel show him for what he is. Kerry may be approaching the same status if he continues down the same path.
19. Lift blockade for more rockets to enter Gaza
Naomi   (07.23.14)
Does Kerry or Abbas think Israel is stupid or Israelis lives are cheap??? This is not a real cease-fire, but a preparation for Hamas to stock up to the next war on Israel. Wake up or go home, Kerry!
20. Obviously......
Michael Weimann ,   New Zealand   (07.23.14)
.........three-faced Kerry flew in by EL AL. On Obama's orders. It's a sort of back-handed compliment. But probably not an intentional one,
21. So, how is it ONLY Kerry can use the Ben Gurion Airport?

22. Does plan include Israeli demands?
Ben S ,   Free World   (07.23.14)
1) Hamas gives up all weapons 2) All tunnels are closed
23. #9, go for it. Liberate your Mecca Arab homeland from Islam
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.24.14)
24. 9
yonatan Allon ,   adelaide/Israel   (07.24.14)
There is no Apartheid in Israel fool-20% are Arabs.Which various resolutions fool?
25. 11,21 BBB: Kerry's plane has a missile defense shield on it
Rivkah   (07.24.14)
like EL AL passenger planes have. It costs a million dollars a plane, so most airlines don't have that.
26. May Hashem be honored on earth
US citizen ,   Atlanta, US   (07.24.14)
may the being of Hashem shut the mouth of all humans before Him.
