1. The United States talks too much
Michael ,   Haifa   (10.28.14)
Maybe they ought to "do" something about Israel's arrogance
2. levy report
mitch   (10.27.14)
levy,san remo and 6 day war say that israel can build whereever it wants. As for kerry, and eu, you can both go to hell as your critiques are worthless garbage.
3. i question obama's: intelligence, commitment to israel, real
ralph   (10.27.14)
peace, judeo-christian values and civilization, western civilization, american values and competency. have i left any thing out?
4. No explanations necessary
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.27.14)
The sovereign State of Israel chooses to build homes for Jewish people in the eternal, indivisible capital city of the Jewish State. We don't tell the United States where to build. We don't tell the French where to build. We don't tell the British where to build. And no country -- but NO country -- has the right to tell the sovereign State of Israel where to build.
5. It takes at least 2 to make peace
Murray of Montreal   (10.27.14)
6. Mr President Obama
Non Jewish Immigrant ,   Haifa   (10.27.14)
Instead of talking, do something You always say the US does not accept illegal israeli settlments in the West Bank but you never do anything about it
7. U.S. Admin. & State Dept. are Racist
Chana ,   USA   (10.28.14)
Absolutely disgusting comments that Jews cannot build housing in Jerusalem and other areas of Israel. Truly loathsome; reminiscent of Russia's Pale and Germany under Hitler (y.s). Nothing redeeming about these comments. Vile.
8. Thanks to Netanyahu Israel will lose all allies
(10.27.14)
Well, maybe North Korea will give a helping hand. Pariahs tend to stick together.
9. To: No.4
Cynthia Ann ,   Texas   (10.28.14)
America should clean house. Deport all the dual citizen congressmen, deport all Israel-firsters in congress, deport all dual citizens. If you can't be loyal to the US get out. That means you to Sarah.
10. ???
Mary   (10.28.14)
Everytime I read about Israel in general or Netanyahu in particular giving the finger to the US, I ask myself "what leverage do they have such that they think they can behave that way with impunity?"
11. No Trust
Hank B.   (10.28.14)
I do not trust people who obviously hate our President. That includes Americans who have such hate, Putin, Netanyahu, or anyone else. If you do not like Obama, I have no problem with that, but folks, he is our President, and it tells us volumes about people who show him so much disrespect. OK, I am ready for all the brain-washed Americans who hate our President to exercise their freedom of speech with the usual avoiding of being responsible how they exercise it. Beer, are you ready? Then I am too. Ol Hank
12. Wake Up
Ted ,   Washington   (10.28.14)
Israel pays about as much attention to our government as we would to a pesky child. If you really look around ,you will see just how much of the jew money controls this country. It seems that everything has a price to them. When we go to war, how many of them are in the trenches? Capitalism at work folks. When the PM of Israel comes to this country to visit the President, he always stops first in New York City,ever wonder why? Please do your homework folks.
13. Finally...
Henry ,   Bible Belt   (10.28.14)
Finally Obama says no good to this egotistical tyrant Netanyahu..Enough is enough...Zionism is poison for Israel, the Jews, and the world,,,
14. To #13: Without Zionism there would be no Israel, obviously.
Matt C ,   Canada   (10.28.14)
15. Home construction does more for peace than the Obama admin.
Matt C ,   Canada   (10.28.14)
We saw in Gaza exactly what happens when Jews get expelled from their homes for "peace": the opposite of peace. In the absence of any attempt by the PA to end incitement or sign any agreement, and in the absence of any pressure from the US on the PA to do so, housing construction is actually the best and only way to peace, even if it takes time.
16. Obama is poison for Israel, the Jews, US, and the world,,,
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (10.28.14)
17. #1,6,8,9,10,11,12,13 are a collection of Antisemite loonies
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (10.28.14)
18. Syria, Irak, Lebanon, Yemen are burning and not because of
Moshe the Genuine   (10.28.14)
Israel. Egypt has to fight Gaza and Iran and not because of Israel. Iran is getting closer to the bomb and not because of Israel. Turkey is about to implode and not because of Israel. And President Obama and his minions have found the time to blame Israel!! ONCE FOR ALL, ERETZ ISRAEL LEHAM ISRAEL.
19. #4
(10.28.14)
Well, if you wanted to build in my yard I would tell you get lost.
20. Deflect, Deflect, Deflect
Dan ,   USA   (10.28.14)
Every time the Obama administration wants to deflect it's failures be it in immigration, ISSIL, border security or Ebola it turns to Israel as a whipping boy. Obama is not even willing to secure the borders of the country he is charged with protecting. This is just a red herring.
21. #8 Wake Up
A.C.Guard ,   USA   (10.28.14)
Perhaps you haven't noticed but Jews are pariahs throughout most of the world throughout history. The only thing that will save Israel is when it becomes a country stronger and more self sufficient than it is now with a stronger leader than Bibi
22. THAT I believe!The Obamoids must be deeply frustrated seeing
(10.28.14)
Israel's brilliant tactic of counteracting the evil machinations of Mr.Hussein Barack Obama: building facts on the ground, OUR ground!
23. 9
yonatan Allon ,   adelaide/Israel   (10.28.14)
What you say is impossible for US to do.Think before you post and check your spelling.
24. To: No. 10
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.28.14)
Ever stop to think why Obama thinks he can run roughshod over the sovereign State of Israel the way he does? Give it some thought, chica. While you're busy thinking about it, ask yourself which country's intelligence service tipped off the United States to a certain famous -- and number one on the ten most wanted list -- had taken up residence in Abbottabad. If it weren't for Israel, you'd be looking for bin Laden still. Without success. So shut your pie-hole, chica.
25. even the Arabs know the Palestinians are nothing but trouble
Jerome ,   Basalt, Colorado   (10.28.14)
Guess who is considering building a wall along its border with Gaza and destroying tunnels it claims Hamas uses to conduct terrorist attacks? This time it's Egypt, not Israel! al-Sisi cares about his people and country.
26. To: No. 9
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.28.14)
Congratulations! You have made no fewer than eight grammatical, usage, syntactical and spelling errors in your tiny post. Well, you do have a tiny brain. No need for you to put it on public display. Are you mentally retarded? In that case, I guess it would be okay. You just can't help yourself, can you?
27. To: No. 12
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.28.14)
We've seen rabid anti-Semites come; we've seen them go. When the United States is buried under its own weight, the Jewish people will be around to say Kaddish. Or Kiddush, depending on your point of view.
28. #8 thru 12 WOW! What hell happened during your childhoods?
Jerome ,   Basalt, Colorado   (10.28.14)
Talk about ignorant and dumb, you have all eat'n the Islamic cake! With ya'all's reasoning it's like saying if only we were nicer to the Islamic States they will be nice to us and not behead ours and British journalist. Obama's is the worst ally the United States ever had!
29. US questions Netanyahu's commitment to peace
Jon ,   Uk   (10.28.14)
And does US question Abbas commitment to peace It's always Israel
30. Israel must officially claim Judea and Samaria.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.28.14)
Israel needs a P.M. with the guts to stop playing stupid games with fictional "Palestinians" and officially claim Judea and Samaria. No nation has a stronger claim on its land than Israel has on Judea and Samaria. No more games with "Palestinian" poseurs. Israel can easily prove this land is ours, to the satisfaction of any reasonable person. Time for annexation.
