1. Defeating Jihadi and Fatah Baath gangs is the Problem .
Zechariah   (12.14.14)
If the West Bank Militirizes like Gaza its going to be a huge problem .Wars will break out between the Jews and Arabs with alot of destruction and civilian death which will draw other Jihadi and Fatah Ba'ath .The Jews seared by the Shoah may opt for the Modified Sampson Option.
2. Obama stab in the back coming?
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (12.14.14)
All that's needed is that the USA's UN ambassador should veto the terrorists' anti-Israel resolution.He can do that without tabling a different resolution to do the terrorists' work another way. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
3. The US veto is controlled by israel, aipac & jewish lobby
James USA   (12.15.14)
US will do what it is told.
4. UNSCR is not law and is not binding on sovereign Israel
CJK   (12.14.14)
unscr's are political statements and do not have the force of law. there is already unscr 242 whose purpose is to be the basis of negotiations between israel and the arabs. any attempt to impose an illegal settlement on the jewish state will result in bloody wars. neither the un nor any other foreign actors have the legal authority to create states or to determine unilaterally the borders of sovereign states. for some reason, the europeans and obama seem not to understand this salient point.
5. Verification Vital Security Stability not War and Mayh

Thank you for your support of our rights to a homeland in our historic land-- a land frequently colonized but never the independent country of any other people, in all of twenty centuries of our exile. Thank you for implicitly understanding that national rights are not abrogated by popular will-- that all people have a right to a future and all peoples a right to national actualization-- and that our presence in our homeland does not impinge upon those capacities for the hostile peoples who share the land with us and who inhabit a much greater territory to the west, not limited by the sea, which they will one day share regardless of the future status of the West Bank. Thank you for understanding that human rights include fairness, in addition to the inviolable right to life-- and thank you for understanding that fairness does not require that we expel people who have returned to their homeland, after being expelled from almost every country that they inhabited. Thank you for understanding that might does not make right, but that right does-- and that right is on our side and not against it-- regardless of any divine declaration. Now please spread the word to whomever will listen. We need the support of your countrymen-- and we need those of your countrymen who support us not to give up.

The Zionists warned Netanyahu that if he supports Abbas to make Obama and Livni happy, Abbas will violate the agreements and Israel will lose. Israel made endless unilateral concessions based on a promise, guaranteed by Europe, Russia, and especially US presidents, that the PLO would make no unilateral steps. Now, as we are nearing the end of the Obama regime, PLO takes a unilateral step that will make either Israel's existence or peace impossible.
8. Number #4 You write that the "UN does not have the legal
John Robey ,   Austin, Texas   (12.15.14)
authority to create states....." exactly and that is why the creation of Israel by the UN was illegal.
9. I wiil not give up the Jewish homeland to babies or bullets

11. This resolution is empty and useless !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (12.15.14)
Abbas is a looser.
12. Abbas - Deluded or Dim?
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (12.15.14)
So he now thinks that the way to force unconditional Israeli withdrawl without negotiations is via the UN and his force of personality? Even then there is no PA Plan on the table DEFINING CLEARLY the State of Statehood. Is it 2 Sate, 3 State, Federation, 1999 Plan - no one knows. What has the magician up his sleeve? No one knows As for his idea that encouraging Palestinian kids to take to violence and then blame Israel while he shows off his latest in designer kaffiyehs - and when these young hot heads are hurt shows the height of callous irresponsibility and cynicism While back in the UK we have the miscellaneous oddballs in the BDC hijacking the Palestinain Narrative for all its worth to promote their own anti Israel and anti jewish agenda. You only have to see that between them they raise a lot of hot air but not ONE answers to Palestinian calls in the UK for donations for projects that will improve the life of Palestinians in the West Bank Its time Abbas woke up and exhibited leadership
13. Palestinians to submit draft resolution
JUDAH THE LION ,   QUDS ALYAHUD   (12.15.14)
IF it pass, a war will break out all over the M/E. Middle east will be burning
14. How About Hamas Withdraw From Gaza Occupation?

BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (12.15.14)
You sir should study history more closely. The UN did not create the nation of Israel David Ben Gurion first declared Israel a nation after Israel defeated 3 Muslim nations who'd attacked Israel in1948. He announced it at the UN who they, along with Truman, also then declared Israel a nation. Not to ignore the obvious, Israel was a nation thousands of years ago before any UN or many nations were born. So, please recheck your facts before making yourself look more foolish than you are. A shame the UN couldn't 'declare America a nation.' LOL LOVE BUILDING ANCIENT JEWISH ISRAEL !!!
16. # 13 Except that the ME is already
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (12.15.14)
burning. 200,00 dead Syrians and another 3.6 homeless, who has time or effort or lunacy to attack Israel? No body, not even ISIS who beheads American's Brits, etc. when no ransom is paid... NOT Israel KEEPING BUSY BUILDING ISRAEL NOW AND AFTER obama!!!
17. 8 Israel was not created by the UN
CJK   (12.15.14)
the partition plan by the un was a political advice without the force of law. furthermore, the arabs rejected it. the jewish armies defeated all combined arab armies during israel's war of independence. israel was admitted into the un based on her setting up democratic institutions and signing armictice agreements with neighboring belligerents.
