May the God of Israel keep Jerusalem for the rightful owners, the Jews. Hasfa Khaleelah
2. Today Ramallah- Tomorrow Amman
Reservist ,   Israel   (07.27.05)
Because you people chose terror and war, you'll just have to live elsewhere- like in your own 78% of the British Mandate Palestine land- not in our 22%.
3. T-Shirt Suggestion
Rachel BenDavid ,   Peduel   (07.27.05)
T-Shirt Suggestion - if the withdrawl goes through: (G-d forbid) ARIK SHARON STAYED OUT OF JAIL AND ALL WE GOT WAS MORE TERROR
4. queria and the truth
ozy ,   the deep south   (07.27.05)
one thing to his credit , ( the only thing actually), is that he now speaks the truth about the arabs'( i don't know what palestinans are) true intentions--- they want the whole land of israel.....!!!! and openly admit it. now, this b.s disengament is not only dissasterous to israel , but it will be worst for the arabs living there....
5. Truth
Ann C. ,   MO, USA   (07.27.05)
Can the pool ol' Palestinian LEADERSHIP SPELL IT OUT ANY PLAINER TO YOU ISRAELIS? SHEESH! No wonder they say, AND BELIEVE stuff like this. As long as you KEEP REWARDING their suicide attacks, and murders, then they'd HAVE TO BE NUTS TO STOP! At least the Palestinians are open about what they are trying to do. I feel so sorry for the Settlers. Trying desperately to send a WARNING WAKE UP CALL to the nation of Israel that is too drunk on lies and broken promises to heed the call, sigh.
6. Jerusalem Will NEVER Be Divided
Adina Kutnicki ,   NJ, US   (07.27.05)
The widget Abu Ala can bluster all he wants about Jerusalem becoming a PA capital. Peres, Olmert, and the rest of the clan are in agreement with him. But the MASSES in Israel are not. In fact, if any "leader" in Israel would dare to authorize such a move, his life wuldn't be worth spit.
7. Frightening Statements...
(07.27.05)
How can peace be achieved with uncompromising, and unreasonable people like this?
8. To No. 7
NYC Girl   (07.27.05)
The answer is it can't. Queria has only said what a lot of Palestinians believe, and as loathsome as his comments are, it's probably better to hear the truth than to suffer under a delusion.
9. support and doing
ahmad ,   jerusalem   (07.27.05)
sharon is only for the jews and he support pull out .god is for jews and non jews god support who believes in this fact .jews do not support this fact quraia support what palastinian want .lastly what god who is for all humans will do what he support
10. VERY Frightening Thoughts...
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (07.27.05)
When capitulationists were last in power and talked about giving up part of our land, all we got from the Arabs was thousands of dead and wounded Jews. And some STILL haven't learned the lesson from this.
11. Just look at you
Salameh ,   Gaza   (07.27.05)
Abu Ala has not said a word that any other Palestinian has not said, we need a state with all the 1967 proper with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital, what is new in that? but you being YOU, twist facts and try to outsmart your Arab hatred-infested minds by shooting back at the man who along with Abu Mazen and late Abu Ammar (May Allah be pleased with him) has chosen the path of peace and co-existance. Those of you who don't like us to have the basic most modest right of a state within the 1967 proper are truly pushing us and you to the abyss of a bloody eternal struggle, so come back to your senses (got any?) and END THE OCCUPATION
12. all of it
Fadi ,   cleveland   (07.27.05)
3 items for peace : 1967 line ,jerusalem and refugees solution ( to go back home ). everything else will not work .. somebody here talked about compromises . remember ladies and gentelmen ..gaza and west bank is 22% of palestine ..that is it ...no more compromise or it will be an eternal conflict .
13. Hey! What can we expect when.....
Harriet ,   U.Sof A   (07.27.05)
the world is handing a state, buckets of $$'s, barrels of white paint for whitewashing & unlimited legitimization to killers of Jews? If there is one joke in all of this it is that they are doing it at the same time they are fighting a war on terror! The real blame is on Bush who needs for Israel to roll over and play dead so the Arab/Muslim street stops nipping at his heels. He needs a scapegoat to cool things off even though it never will. The blame should also fall on Bush supporters who refuse to stand against him on this matter. Plus of course he has his partner Tony Blair looking to him to begin 'repaying' favors because of the Iraq War. We all know Blair has no love for Israel. All these moves are sheer transparency. Nothing is more obvious. Of course we should not forget the accomplice of Bush, Condi Rice (Powell redo) stated the following: "When the Israelis withdraw from Gaza, it cannot be sealed or isolated, with the Palestinian people holed in ... We are committed to the connectivity of Gaza and the West Bank." Not to mention the number of times she has spoken with complete certainty of the so-called soon to be Contiguous Palestinian State. Her behavior on her last visit was truly despicable. It is no wonder the leaders of the about to be Palestinian (un)democratic/ terror state are jumping for joy. They need do nothing, not even hold their cards close to their chest. All payment for slaughtering Jews. See ZOA Communiqués at http://www.zoa.org/ The irony in all of this is the right is constantly railing on the liberal left (visa versa) while at the same time both the left and the right seemed to have abandoned Israel and whatever good common sense either one might have once possessed. Now more then ever when we need both left and right to abdomen partisanship, most are not willing to do so.
14. Fadi, Cleveland is your homeland
Dani ,   Tel Aviv   (07.27.05)
And Dearborn Michigan is your capital. Deal with it. The land of Israel belongs to the nation of Israel- exclusively.
15. If only ...
Matthias ,   Switzerland   (07.27.05)
... the Israeli government takes a similarly determined stand concerning the Jewish claim on Judea, Samaria and Gaza and of course Jerusalem. They have the backing of the Word of God, the bible.
16. Little by little
Wise Man ,   USA   (07.27.05)
Off course Jersulem is next. The israeli said they will never gave gaza, and they will nevr give the west bank. Now they are running out of gaza with they tail between they legs. just a little by little jersulem will be back, the golan hights and the rest of Plastein.
17. re:Jerusalem Will NEVER Be Divided
Chen ,   U.S.A   (07.27.05)
Every wonder why Bush just trashed the embassy act again setting it back another 6 months? I mean the real reason. The reason he gave was one of 'national secruity,' however that is but a phony reason. Every other American Embassy resides in the capitol of their guest country. Even in places of great danger. Israel is the only country on the planet with whom the U.S has relations but does not have an embassy in their capitol. Truth is, to move the American Embassy to Jerusalem would be like calling Jerusalem the UNDIVIDED CAPITOL OF ISRAEL. Scream like hell to the prez, for 'if he TRULY wanted' could do something about that first REAL STEP in telling the world Israel IS THE UNDIVIDED CAPITOL of ISRAEL. But then, we don't want to anger the Arab/Muslim world and the appeasers of the Arab/Muslim world. Matter of fact, we want to please them more then our so-called ally Israel. Here is proof. See for yourself- ~Saudi Foreign Minister Praises US Delay of Jerusalem Embassy Move~ http://israelnationalnews.com/news.php3?id=84135 While Abu Ala is out in the open about Jerusalem, right of return, west bank and gaza.... like his predecessor, he wants all of Israel! In truth, it is the wolves in sheeps clothing we must really concern ourselves over. For In the mean time we have a president who obviously lacks the important male body part which would enable him to stand up to the Arab world by putting that embassy where it rightfully belongs. The guy you called a 'widget' is merely one player on the scene who wants to destroy Israel. Now look around and take a careful look at the other players who really hold the trump card on Israel.
18. Tomorrow the crap tables of Gaza

19. Palestine for Muslims
Osama ,   Jerusalem   (07.27.05)
Palestine sooner or later will be for the muslims, this is what the quran said, whatever your tawra said, all lies and fake, all of us knows that it is forged, all jews will go to the HELL
20. Moving the Embassy to Jerusalem
NYC Girl   (07.27.05)
"Saudi Foreign Minister Praises US Delay of Jerusalem Embassy Move." By any chance would those be the same Saudis who gave us the 9/11 hijackers? Yeah, I thought so. As far as most Americans are concerned, the Saudis can shove their praise, along with that 10 million dollar check they tried to give to Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who told them, under no uncertain terms, where they could stick it.
21. re: 19. Palestine for Muslims
GET THIS   (07.28.05)
19 writes "this is what the quran said." You are a brainwashed! You know nothing of history except the lies you are fed 21/7. Your palestine is Jordan and Egypt! Speaking of Jordan and Egypt, how much have your blood brothers wanted you and done for you? What does the quaran tell you about that? Palestine, now Israel is the biblical home of Jews and Jerusalem is the undivided capitol of Israel. No amount of Arab/Muslim lies can change that. Go back to Jordan or Egypt. See how much they want you.
22. Jaffa, Acre, and Nazareth are next
Paul ,   Texas   (07.28.05)
In a long and flagrant violation of UN, Israel continues to occupy those areas along with Gaza and West Bank which have been given to the Palestinians in the 1947 UN partition plan for Palestine. It is a matter of time when the world community will demand that Israel respect and fulfill all UN resolutions on the issue of Palestine.
23. they will get it
Eyal ,   Brazil   (07.28.05)
thats the truth! we are leaving gaza now, and people agree cos "we cannot bear terror anymore".. thats what i most hear from Israelis when i ask... first of all i wouldnt really mind leaving gaza... i feel sorry because of settlers having to move after so many years, i understand religious people saying we cannot do that cos G´d gave us it... i understand all points but MY point is that arabs are winning.. TERROR is winning... ook! lets give gaza!!! terror will stop!!!! thats what israeli are believing in... give few months! terror will come back, and worse than it is now... then we will start all again "yeah!!! lets give West Bank!!!!!! we cant bear this horrible terror anymore!!!" the history of pullout will repeat... orange people, blue people... the civil war fear... then arabs have their state finaly but no!!! they still wanna jerusalem!! yeah! terror will appear AGAIN... and we will accept giving at least half of Jerusalem thats my point on being against leaving gaza...those settlers are heroes for us... they are showing we are not surrending ourselves we leave gaza today, tomorrow west bank and in the next week we will have an arab state with the capital in OUR jerusalem and the worst of all.. we will be the responsibles for this, cos we accepted giving our land

26. BEFORE 1948, JEWS WERE THE ONES WHO WERE PALESTINIANS!
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (07.28.05)
There NEVER was an Arab country of Palestine. Jerusalem was NEVER the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. JERUSALEM IS MENTIONED OVER 800 TIMES IN THE BIBLE, not once in the Koran. Arabs FIRST took the name “Palestinians” in 1967. Arafat was the FIRST leader of this NEW PEOPLE. Before 1948, Jews were known as the Palestinians! The Jewish newspaper, the Jerusalem Post was called the Palestinian Post. After the Jews miraculously transformed desert and swamps into rich, agricultural land (for which Jews are world famous!) Arabs came in large numbers from Arab countries for jobs from the Jews. The fact that the overwhelming majority of Arabs resided only briefly in Palestine is attested to by the special UN decree: that any Arab who had resided in Palestine FOR ONLY TWO YEARS BEFORE 1948, and then left, would be considered a refugee and so would his descendants!!! On March 31, 1977, Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein: “The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct “Palestinian people” to oppose Zionism. For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan.”
27. Arabs have no right to any of the land
AP ,   Highland Park, NJ   (07.28.05)
the arabs have no right to any of Judea, Samaria or Gaza. They had the option to share the land with the Jews in 1947 under the UN partition plan that the Jews accepted. The arab community refused to give anything to the Jews. Because of that, they lost everything to the Jews, its the arabs' own problem that Israel controls Judea, Samaria and Gaza and must deal with it. They have no legitimate claim to any of the land. The guy from Ohio said Palestinians accepting 22% of Israel is a compromise, but what he doesnt realize is that when you demand 22% of a land that you have no right to that is no compromise. Hopefully the arabs will learn it is not they that have a right to demand land from the Jews and if anything can only beg the Jews to give them some land as a gift. - to demand Jerusalem - or any part of Judea, Samaria Gaza or Israel - from the Jews is disgustig on the part of the arabs.

ciara ,   australia   (07.28.05)
It's attitude like yours that makes me think this pullout is not such a great idea. Giving people like you what you want for nothing. Keep dreaming, Jerusalem is ours and will stay ours. Um Yisrael Chai.

Is that the best lesson they taught you at ZOA or Bnai Brath? Just so you know this is an outdated 20387326326732 times recycled messed up story, and to further your knowledge this is our land and we have no other land, while you NJ fellow, along with all yvgeney's and Jabotinsky's and falshamura, you better come to face it, this is an ARAB land andf it will always be Arab, no matter how strong AIPAC is, and no matter how much influence you have, because eventually the land will go back to its owners
