1. US confused
Lauren ,   Israel   (03.22.15)
The US is VERY confused about who are the good guys and who are the bad guys in the Middle East. The question they should be asking is whether or not the representatives of the Palestinians believe in a two state solution.
2. Why should Israel want a 2 state solution when Arabs want 1?
Dan   (03.22.15)
Abbas will confirm this.
3. Fix Yemen, Syria, Egypt, Iraq
Bob   (03.22.15)
Does Obama have nothing left to do than criticize Israel. Let him go see the madness that's going on around, fix that first.
4. Seven Million Palestinian in Most West Bank
Zechariah   (03.22.15)
The Projected Obama proposal will be seven million Palestinian Arabs in most of Judea and Samaria in a Decade .The Land Swap idea means Israel keeps 15% of Judea and Samaria and allots 1000 square Km of Islamic Israel to Palestine .The Jordan Valley will be IDF controlled for a decade then Electronic Devices and Satellite Technology with Ten thousand USA and IDF Special Forces will Monitor for Intrusions by Non Palestinian Radicals and Armed forces.That scenario cannot be Sold to the Jews in Israel at all and the Arabs will not abide by peace leading to a Regional War as Massive Casualties Rise .So it will not happen for now . The Jews will only allow the Palestinians half of Judea and Samaria and some of Islamic Israel 2-3 thousand square Kilometres .Millions of Palestinians will have to be absorbed outside the current area as a larger number Militirized poses a severe threat and massive counterWar .
5. We all knew O was waiting to pull something on Israel since
Alan ,   SA   (03.22.15)
he was nominated to be the Democrat's Presidential Candidate That he took so long to come out openly without pretences against Israel is a mystery.
6. Don't be confused : he's lying
Dan   (03.22.15)
He was talking truth when he promised there'd be no Palestinian state. Everything else is a lie. We Israelis know him very well.
7. confused?
ky   (03.22.15)
Most people are confused by US policy generally. Islamic State have launched a campaign of murder , tyranny, brutality and aggression against the whole world and we have Obama looking the other way. Israel is the sole bulwark in the region that will and can stand up against this terrible threat . In addition they have entered into an agreement to control nuclear weapons with Iran a nation that simply cannot be trusted with one word it utters. There will be only one benefactor from that agreement and it will not be the West. So the confusion is really not about Israeli policy but whether the US and its allies have turned into total poltroons
8. two state solution. Confusion
ky   (03.22.15)
What is Islamic State then? It offers a state for Muslims which includes Israel and the US pretends it does not exist. Sorry I forgot the US administration want another one but exactly who will this other state be for ?
9. 363 U.S. Congressmen told Obama Congress must approve Iran d
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.22.15)
Congress is finally starting to reign in the horrid Obama regime. Largely as a result of Bibi's wonderful speech, 363 U.S. Congressmen, Democrats and Republicans, notified Obama that Congress must approve any Iran nuke deal. Thank heavens that Bibi leads Israel and not brain dead cowards Herzog and Livni!
10. Confusion
Sam Tayar ,   Canada   (03.22.15)
Dear President: Israel realizes that a two-state solution in no longer viable. We Israelis are looking now for a new vision for Israel and the ME. We will engage new and old partners to explore initiatives. Maybe you and the US can participate. We have worked together before and met formidable challenges together. We have had good success in the past. There are many countries who will join our effort. Going forward we are convinced that a new vision can be drafted, proposed and implemented. So what do you say? Do you want to forget failed game plans and apply fresh energies to achieve success? Waiting respectively for your response, yours truly, Israel
11. #3 Bob You Forgot lebanon

12. US butt out
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (03.22.15)
hasn't obama made a big enough mess already, internationally and domestically? He should stick to golf and leave politics to the big boys with bigger brains. he's not good at anything but smiling and lying. MORE BUILDING !!!
13. Does he consider himself anObama lackey
Roland ,   london England   (03.22.15)
14. #2 Dan
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (03.22.15)
Those so-called Palestinians want half of Israel now and the rest later.
15. CONFUSED : A RAP
DA RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED RAP HOUSE   (03.22.15)
Yo , I aint enthused , cos Dan Shapiro is confused ,he has blown a fuse ,it's all a ruse, this confusing needs clearing ,for those who are hard of hearing ; we hate .the idea of palestinian state , it's too late ,Shapiro aint no urban hero , no need for confusion ,there wont be no two-state solution.
16. ALLOW ME TO UNCONFUSE YOU ,
TEL DA TRUTH ,   SAFED CYNIC HOUSE   (03.22.15)
Dear Mr .Shapiro , although I understand that this may not be what you wish to hear , however Prime Minister Netanyahu , myself ,and all sane israeli citizens are NOT ,repeat ,not interested in creating a palestinian state. Nothing more to add,but I hope this clarifies the situation.
17. today it was reported
ky   (03.22.15)
that 9 doctors / medical students trained by the UK in Sudan have disappeared and are believed to have gone to IS in Syria . If you calculate the proportion of immigration into IS by the number of nations worldwide it means a huge number of foreign Muslims especially those with higher education are now living within the borders of what is now IS . This now constitutes the de facto construction of a new state previous to any that has existed before directly on the borders of Israel. The IS lays claim to all lands in the region including Israel . It is now is now a three state solution for the US who are clearly trying to ignore the implications of a new reality posed by IS. For Israel and the IS it has become a one state solution. A new situation has arisen and US policy needs to get real
18. 15 16, agree with the rap artist
C   (03.22.15)
no state for arab palestinian terrorists.
19. Too clever Netanyahu!
(03.22.15)
He's not prepare to take responsibility of Palestinians in one state Israel and he's not going to create two states. Jerusalem will be undivided capital of Israel. He invited Abbas to come to Knesset, a word to wise but Abbas couldn't read between the lines of Netanyahu invite to Knesset. So Netanyahu said he's not racist true because arabs have 13 seat in Knesset. Netanyahu screams when Abbas joins to Hamas. What at all they analysing of Netanyahu to be confused. Hahaha!
20. Obama'a Selective and hypocritical confusion
Ezekial Haim ,   London   (03.23.15)
Would Obama clear up the confusion about Qatar and Saudi Arabia's foreign policies of financing Islamist terrorism on the one hand and bombing ISIS on the other.Is he also confused by Putin's policies towards Europe ? How about Kameini who chants death to America while sending his representatives to negotiate with America.Obama is a complete vain self obsessed hypocrite.He promised to bomb Syria if Asad used chemical weapons and changed his mind at the last minute.If he is really confused then he is not up to be a president of a superpower and should stop meddling in matters he is not up to understanding.
21. Ambassador to Israel Confused?
Charlon Williams ,   United States   (03.23.15)
P.M. Netanyahu has simply stated as long as the Palestinians intend to support the extremist terrorists whose intent is to annihilate the Jewish People, how can there possibly be a two state solution when they do not even recognize Israel as a Jewish State? Netanyahu has not backed down, the Palestinians have sided with Israel's enemies. It would be suicide for Israel. No matter what man does, The One and Only Living God will have His way.
22. Its all about Obama hey?
dennis ,   Chicago   (03.23.15)
I dont remember Dan Shapiro saying that its policy on giving money to the palestinians has to be reviewed when they formed a coalition with the murderers and kidnappers Hamas ? I guess mimicking Obama is job security, hey ? plitically corect, hey ?
