1. George Rice and Condi Bush call Abbas a man of peace.
Shlomi ,   Netanya   (12.05.05)
They harp on Israel to open their borders and make free passage for slaughters of Jews. They will not even call Jerusalem the undivided capital of Israel.......yet they do not have the balls to fight Iran. U.S is no different then Eurabia. Bush who everyone thought would fight the war on terror is nothing but a whimp to the arab world and a wolf who turned on Israel simply because Iraq went bad.
2. Controlling terror ?
Hiram ,   tel aviv   (12.05.05)
PA has never controlled terror. PA will never control terror as long as the Arab mentality remains tribal and as long as hatred for Jews will be existing. Islamic environment ( which allows plastic dolls to be sold in kamikaze outfit) is also responsible for this. But above all, the concept of Jihad , widely spread amongst arab terrorist of all origins, demonstrate once again that we are far away from pure political consideration but entering a religious war.
3. now that we've got another reason...
Yakir   (12.05.05)
i suggest that the idf should go in hard, kill at least 30 radicals, just to show that killing innocents isnt the right way to peace, and will be punished hard. go idf, show em' what u got.
4. ahlomi hot air
ali ,   ramallah   (12.05.05)
calm down and look in your back yard. Israel has a lot to do with what is happening. Building wall, despair, hatred, ...etc. No excuse but believe me it adds to the whole thing. Shame on those who did this. They should be punished. No excecuse to terrorism and heart felt condolences to the families.
5. to #1
Julius ,   St. Louis MO   (12.05.05)
I would like to add that all the silent conservative Christians who claim to be friends of Israel choose Bush over opening their mouths. Heaven forbid they stand up and give Bush hell for the way he turned against Israel. In the mean time a mosque will be built atop their birthplace of Christ. This is the payback for silence and stupidity. Does not matter if Christians actively work against Israel and are anti-Semites or refuse to confront the president they put into office. NO DIFFERENCE.
6. it is not the PA who are at fault but
Lior ,   Yehud   (12.05.05)
the world who enables them. Like #1 said, Bush calls Abbas a man of peace. In the mean time Abbas does NOTHING to stop terror. HE DOES NOTHING TO DISARM THE TERRORISTS AMONG HIM. Next time Abbas comes to the White House Bush will lavish more undeserved praise upon him. Bush will lie some more and until each and every person asks why, nothing will happen except Israel will bury more innocent Jews.
7. Shame on you
Mr X ,   Jenin   (12.05.05)
My Name is Mohamed from Jenin, I just wonder if Israel really wanted to prevent this, couldnt that happen?!!!
8. ALI
Eve ,   Canada /ISRAEL   (12.05.05)
U ARE AN IDIOT AND INGRATE... THE WALL HAS NOTHING TOO DO WITH IT... OUR ALLOWING 7000 TERRORISTS INTO ISRAEL IS WHAT HAS DONE THIS
9. Im with Yakir
Gil ,   Tel Aviv   (12.05.05)
I hope they hit them hard really hard.
10. Netanya bombing
gerschor ,   Raanana, Israel   (12.05.05)
Now that the IDF has finished blowing up open fields and abandoned buildings in the Gaza Strip in response to the Kassam attacks, it can turn its attention to the West Bank. There must be plenty of open fields and empty buildings in Jenin and Nablus.
11. To Mohammed #7
Amram ,   Netherlands   (12.05.05)
Lets ask it this way: if the PA really wants peace, why didn't THEY prevent this?
12. This is the successful withdrawal???
yisrael ,   Baltimore   (12.05.05)
How many more Korbanot until someone on the left gets the point?
13. Islam wants to rule the world
Gabor ,   Budapest, EU   (12.05.05)
Radical islamists KILL because they hate Jews, Christians, and everybody who is not a Muslim. Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is in the focus point of this "battle" which is NOT for FREEDOM but for POWER over the rest of the world. It's enough to say "this is a holy war" in the name of Allah and the majority of Muslims will accept the bloodiest attacks against non-Muslims. Palestinian children learn about hatred and see terrorists as "holy fighters of Islam". I could never follow such a religion! Sorry!
14. attack
basel ,   Jer   (12.05.05)
This attack is living proof that the rasist separation wall cannot bring security to the israeli side, I think the time has come for the isrealis to realize the peace in a need and must.
15. ALI
Yaacov ,   Jerusalem   (12.05.05)
Thank you for expressing your condemnation of terrorism.
16. To Ali, Ramallah
raykie ,   Israel   (12.05.05)
Ali, I join you in condolences to the bereaved and I wish the injured a speedy and complete recovery. You blame the wall, but it was incidents like this one that caused the wall to be built. The suicide bombers didn’t start their hateful work after Israel’s attacks on the Palestinians but they preceded them and caused Israel’s reactions, which I join you in considering disastrous. Violence breeds violence. Israel has tried withdrawing from territories, halting operations several times but the violence from your side continues as if there had been no peace action by Israel. How would you advise Israel to act to stop these attacks and others like the Quassam rocket attacks? It is my feeling that your people consider peacemakers to be cowards and attack them even more strongly. You might have noticed that the arrivals of peacemakers from Europe and the USA have always been greeted with suicide bombings.
17. Finish the Fence
Guy ,   Europe   (12.05.05)
Finish the fence and let the Pals strew in their own extremism and misery. Israel is above them.
18. number 7. When is it ever your fault?
Ari ,   Tel Aviv   (12.05.05)
Do you hear yourselves. It is the barrier. It is occupation. It is this, it is that. Israel could prevent it and on and on. Here is a newsflash. If Israel really were the enemy you would not be alive to thump out your bullshit on a computer. We have spared your life because we have humanity. The enemy are YOUR leaders who oppress you. The enemies are your leaders who do nothing to stop terror. The enemies are the imans in your mosques who fill your heads with extrodinarly sick hate. The enemies are the parents who dress their kids up as sucicide terrorists. The enemy is the books in which you read which fill your head with lies. The enemies are those who appease you for in the end they don't give one care for you but to use you and exploit you for their aims. I am so sick of hearing your lies and excuses. History tells us people take responsiblity for their own future. UNDERSTAND? Get off your lazy brainwashed ass and do something other then shit out more crap. Read a 'real' history book and discover how people really get democracy. Open your eyes and learn the key to peace and democracy does not come from the outside but from within. Rise up against your own. Otherwise one of these days the humanity of Jews will run out and then remember you have been forwarned.
19. PA CONDEMNS BOMBINGS
Miriam ,   Kfar Saba   (12.05.05)
While at the same time does nothing to stop them. But hey, Abbas learned at the knee of Arafat, why not? George must be on the phone this moment with Arafat in a business suit telling him what a great leader he is.
20. Abbas orders arrest of those who planned this attack.
Margot ,   Germany   (12.05.05)
Just like he arrested the others who planned previous attacks. Just like the king of modern terror did it. And if someone does get arrested on that very rare rare occassion, they are let out the back door of the jail within hours. Yet the world yawns and pretends this does not happen.
21. Islamic terrorist only know to Lie when they kill...
Hiram ,   Tel aviv   (12.05.05)
So , what it is now : who did it ? The El Aqsa primates or the Al Quds primates ? Even when killing, they need to capitalize on that .... Let's hope that we will soon find out who is really behind this and who will have to pay the price.....
22. This is unacceptable act of terror!
Abdullah ,   Kuwait City, Kuwait   (12.05.05)
There is no excuse for targeting civilian's period! Even if the occupation forces of Israel do not distinguish between militant or civilian Palestinians when it handles any so-called operations in the Palestine that does not and should not suggest a green light to go ahead and target innocent Israeli civilians! Two wrongs do not make it right!
23. Ramallah's Ali
Jul ,   Paris   (12.05.05)
It's the eternal and unresolved issue of the chicken and the egg : What came first ? Is it harsh security measures that led to hatred and rejection of Israel's existence or is it the opposite ? As far as history can tell, it started with hatred and rejection of Israel's existence by the arab communities at the UN. The war that followed wasn't enough to gain the right to live, it looked like you wouldn't stop and got a trashing on the 1967 war. Then again in 1973. That day, Egypt understood and settled a cold peace but never reined in the weapon smuggling in Gaza. Same stuff for Syria that still backs the hezbolla donkey doo in Lebanon. So much for appeasing the conflict... Same stuff for the terror attacks, the hijackings, the drive-by shootings and ambushes. Tell me, is Israel supposed to ease completely the security measures so that you can hit it until you're satisfied with your accumulated frustration ? Is it what's supposed to happen to get peace ? Is it what you need to come to terms with Israel ? Maybe offering you Tel-Aviv would appease your so-called 60 years of sufferings too ! C'mon, show some sense of responsibility, stop the incitement, try to be critical of yourself a little more (and i think the arabs from the territories learned much from being close to a western style country like Israel, they're much more advanced than other arabs) and really do something about your terror organization. Show that you want a peaceful country and not one that will always be a threat and a regular rocket launcher. It's just too easy to hold a double speech method like that : the PA condemns the terror attacks but it goes on and nothing's done against it.
24. Israel is to blame for this !
Marcel ,   Florida   (12.05.05)
They elect idiots who go along with the fasle peace plan. They still think palestinians want peace after 12 years of evidence to the contrary. Israel continues to appease and retreat as gestures of weakness for these attacks. Israel allows a foreign superpowr to dictate the surrender of it's land as a reard to the Palestinian's for killing it's citizens. The majority of Israel are too stupid and arrogant in their stupidity to heed the warnings we give them about the true intent of the islamic propagandists, terrorists and liars who feign peac in the day while killing Jews at night.
25. i wonder if they will donate the organs
hussein ,   ramallah   (12.05.05)
I really do wonder if they will donate the organs from the dead to palestinians?
26. 5 VOTES FOR SHARON IN NETANYA
(12.05.05)
27. To Ari
Sivan ,   Israel   (12.05.05)
Incredible talkback
28. To secret Momo from Jenin
Jul ,   Paris   (12.05.05)
Got Internet in Jenin ? Well good for you, how nice from Bezeq... Anyway, once again, the self-delusion from arab people is at work here. How about forgetting about the conspiracy theories and realize that palestinian terror organization are just trying every single minute of every single day to plant a suicide bomber anywhere in Israel ? Do you really think that a security service and security measures can stop 100% of the attempts ? Once in a while, one goes through with the help of an arab israeli, as usual. If you genuinely want Israel to be safer, we can still deport all arabs from Israel in Gaza...
29. Time to disengage from Netanya!
Matthias ,   Switzerland   (12.05.05)
Following the logic of the current governments stupid policy!
30. Netanya bombing
Mitch ,   Kfar Saba, Israel   (12.05.05)
Confirmation by the Palastinains that its business as usual..what are we waiting for, we should go in with all our firepower like the USA does and wipe out these animals. By the way I am not from right wing.
