To save the life of one (Tanenbaum) Israel suffered multiple deaths. Obvious logic DONT RELEASE TERRORISTS FOR ANY REASON

Break this circle, stop killing people, end the occupation and leave

If You poeple want peace you could have had peace long time ago, but as long as you want to destroy Israel and kill her children you will have no peace it is simple disarm your terrorists and stop your terror machine. You want peace ? Disarm your TERRORMACHINE

1. An appalling revelation here--Saadi was released in the Tenenbaum deal. Enough said. 2. The Tulkarem Islamic Jihad terror base was allowed to develop because Israel handed Tulkarem to PA control as a "peace" gesture last March. The "gesture" resulted in the Stage nightclub and Netanya mall suicide bombings. The people who died in them are as dead now as they were a few months ago, and will always be dead. Nothing will bring them back. However, Israel keeps making "gestures." 3. If, God forbid, Islamic Jihad is able to realize its threat of a large, murderous retaliation, it means Israel is in an intolerable situation--living under direct terrorist blackmail, and must reverse the disengagement and reconquer the territories. In other words, for the first time in 12 years it must put the lives of its citizens first, like normal countries.

you cant tell the girl to stop resisting you while you are raping here you stop the raiping first and then you can ask her to stop fighting

This is the fruit of another failed U.S. peace plan . IT IS PHONY PEACE on a par with the Iraq fiasco. Israel better cut itself loose from the captain of this Titanic. Israel had better defeat the jihad piglets before they get even more lethal weapons.

You're argument is stupid. Israel has made the first BOLD step and once again, the Palestinians have contributed NOTHING to this peace process. I do believe that the Palestinians will get back every inch of their land and when they do, nothing will change with them. They will still be killers who attack innocent Israeli's. When that happens Israel, do what any nation should do-----hunt every single one of them down and make them pay. That's the day Israel will have peace!

Lesson # one - as dastardly as the Arab terrorists are, the Sharon gov't has the blood of those killed from Saadi too. Why? Afterall, they released a KNOWN cold blooded murderer. Second, now that he has been "elminated", no one in the delusional "peace" camp should wring their hands and think that the "calm" has been disturbed. While Israelis were thinking about a "calm", all the terror groups were plotting their destruction. You can take that info to the bank. Memo to Sharon - stop f----n around with Jewish lives and win the darn war already!

Falcon, you're basically playing the story of who came first between the egg and the chicken. For what I can tell, there's been hatred toward jews and a will not to let Israel be created on its former territories from the VERY VERY beginning of the zionist movement. Then I guess the arab violence is the egg, or the chicken ... or both ! Instead of your rape analogy, i'd use this one : the palestinians are like someone struggling to hit someone stronger than himself while this strong person is holding the palestinian hands tied. The palestinian says "let go on me" with his rage growing for being tied up. The israeli being the guy who holds the other's hands says "if i let you go, you'll hit me so i won't until you drop the idea". What is Israel supposed to do ? Accept to be hit and hit until you feel like you got revenge, until you think you got your due ? And then, in what shape will Israel be ? Can you be trusted to be reasonable if the curfews, the checkpoints and all the security measures are dropped ? So far, the conclusion is no. Whenever there's a security concession, there's an attack. The conclusion is pretty straightforward : it'll take as long as it takes but you'll drop terror and violence before being left alone.

I believe that occupation is the father and the mother of all sins The Palestinians are not born to be violent, we want to live in peace and the majority of the palesinians acknowledge the state of Israel and when the occupation ends we will put an end for all kinds of violence otherwise israel has the right to fireback but only after occupation ends for your argument, Israel is not holding our hands, its catching our neck in one hand while the other hand holding our breath

RESPONSE TO FALCON: Stop the occupation and leave Israel.

I do believe that it's how you see things from the West Bank or Gaza but that's not how it looks on the other side. However, i don't believe that violence will stop if Israel would withdraw behind the 1967 line. There was violence before the 1967 war, there was violence in 1929 and there's always been violence in this part of the World. The goal of your terrorist movements is to destroy Israel alltogether, not just create a country on the West Bank and Gaza. try to justify why arafat didn't accept Barak's offer. And saying that arabs from the territories are not violent is just reality denial. Your people is involved in awful terror killings, inner killings among factions, with public execution of so-called collaborators, of sending kids with concealed weapons or ammo, even bombs ! Not to mention the terror attacks on targets abroad, hijackings and so on. Not violent ? Please ... As far as i know, al qaeda is a muslim arab movement, not a hassidic jewish movement. Face the reality and try to make adjustement and changes before asking for credibility ! I'm always delighted to read articles and comments coming from an enlightened arab and/or muslim but it seldom happens. For your own sake, just stop the denial and change.

Jul, you make excellent points. People like Falcon cannot change until they start thinking freely and stop thinking as a herd that's been inundated with hateful myths and ideologies. The only hope for their societies BOTH to advance AND to stop being aggressive and violent lies in freedom and free thought. That would require a revolution in the Muslim world. I hope it happens someday, I don't see it on the horizon.

cause most of your comments are droll and doltish. and lacking in total basic respect. I mean really if you are so wise then you should know that one NEVER speaks to a Prime Minister of Israel the way you do. Further my dear, Mr. Sharon is not an "ex-general" in America the caption under his photograph would read "general, retired" or as we would say here "general, reserves" Really my dear, give it up....most times your comments are those of a frustrated angry dry old maid. get a life!

if it wasn't for the jews you palestinians would be killing each other.

Adina ( and the others who type like you) please do yourself a BIG favor : (try to) think before you type....and instead of verbally assaulting everyone the wy you do , get your ass overhere and do something....You talk about Jewish lives ? from America ? Where is the threat there ? When shopping at Florsheim may be ? You will be allowed to speak up your mind whenever you come HERE. Untill then, I strongly recommend that you stick to cooking Tschulent and baking Matzoth...if you know what this is of course !!!!

To # 17 - You are typical of those buttkissers who are afraid to say anything politically incorrect. I couldn't care less if Shron is titled EX, Retired Or Rejuvenated. What matters are results - less dead Jews, not more. Furthermore, as for the angry old maid business - well, aside from running my own business, feel free to look me up at Frontpage Magazine under articles written by Lee Kaplan. Check the Sept 26 article to start and see my name at the end. I suspect I am busier than you are bucko. While I am chasing down the terrorists you cower in fear.Typical of your sort.

"and when the occupation ends we will put an end for all kinds of violence..." No you won't. You can't control the violent people now and you are not going to be able to control them when the occupation ends. Palestinians were supposed to disarm and control the terrorists once Israel pulled out of Gaza. You have not lived up to your promise but Israel has. People don't trust Palestinians, and people don't trust Muslims. If Palestinians were truly interested in peace, they would take the bull by the horns and stop being afraid of the trouble makers who keep this peace process from moving forward. Instead, you have to use code words when speaking of these trouble makers because you are afraid of them. If you're afraid of them, then why shouldn't Israel be concerned about them as well?

one less blood thirsty moslem murderer walking this earth..... many more ,unfortunately , to go!

out of lovingkindness for mentally ill folks like you. I chose to just leave it be...obviously you are one dried up mentally ill zero. Yea! right chasing down terrorists -- next you will be telling us that you work for the CIA, Homefront Security and the Mossad! hahahahahahaha!

If you have arguments --use them. Calling somebody mentally ill is not a winning argument, to the contrary, it shows that you have none.

Untill then, I strongly recommend that you stick to cooking Tschulent and baking Matzoth...if you know what this is of course !!!! say Hiram Women to the kitchen -- no wonder Muslims and "free thinking", "progressive " Liberals get together so well. Adina, my girl, you thought you got some rights to speak up; well, those free thinking man, like Hiram, here, are setting you straight as to your place --back to the kitchen, and don't you dare expressing your views to the men again.

Really my dear, give it up....most times your comments are those of a frustrated angry dry old maid. Ha... Ha... Ha... You must be very Leftist, for only Lefties slip-up so badly to show their "politically incorrect" underbelly, when not very, very careful. Bit of sexism here on your part, isn't it. Didn't anybody tell you that sexism is a big liberal no, no ?

gimme me a break you can't just insult a Prime Minister just because it suits you and then get all upset when someone zaps you back? I believe the American sayings go: "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!" and "what goes around comes around!" you insult the PM of Israel so what makes you so important that you shouldn't be insulted back?

To Hiram # 19 - You know not from whence you talk. My sacrifices for Israel could match yours any time. When was the last time you volunteered ! for combat duty? If you fought for Israel it was because you had to, otherwise your butt would have been put in jail. Sorry bucko, but when my children put their lives on the line for Israel and don't have to, I have EVERY right to speak at this table. Deal with it!
