1. Let The Hamas-Supporters Sit In The Dark
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (01.31.06)
This is a no-brainer. They choose death. They choose war. They choose Hamas. We owe them nothing.
2. Then shut off the power.
Christopher ,   Boston, MASS USA   (01.31.06)

4. Bush/Abbas corruption
BobH ,   Boise, US   (01.31.06)
We should remember that President Bush gave the PA $20 million last year that Bush said was to pay for the electric bill. Bush had also lied previously that the money was for Abbas' election and Congress said the US should not be funding elections in foreign countries. This $20 million payment to Abbas was after Bush gave Abbas $50 million personally and Abbas spent $7 million of it on new fancy cars for his cronies. So the question arises, who is corrupt, Abbas or Bush or both.
5. One may ask ...
Matthias ,   Switzerland   (01.31.06)
... where all the European and US taxpayers money went that was spent (wasted) on the PA!
6. Give one week's notice
Elad Lending ,   Yahel   (01.31.06)
then turn off the switch. Let's see if the Pals' rich Arab brethren offer tto pay the bill.
7. by the way
Elad Lending ,   Yahel, Israel   (01.31.06)
who services their grid?
8. electricity and utilities
Antony O. Lucia ,   Charlotte, NC   (02.01.06)
Cut the electricity and all services. They don't deserve such kindness. Let them stew in their hate. Why would you not do it? They never will be thankful, anyway. They are so ignorants that they still want to destroy you, even if you feed them. I love Israel
9. The electricity agreeement...
Steve ,   USA   (02.07.06)
B"H This is a clear example of the problem making agreements with these Arabs. The Arabs see the agreements as a way to get benefits. But when it comes to the corresponding responsibilities, they do not comply. In other words, this is not responsible behavior, and these are not responsible negotiating partners. The leftists use this as excuses for their own anti-Jewish behavior of settler uprootings, blaming it on the future "Arab majority" or the demographic threat. But Israel has lived as a nation for thousands of years as an extreme minority, with NO DEMOCRATIC THREAT WHATSOEVER! Why would this time be such a challenge after thousands of years against much greater odds? I agree that it is important to resolve the electricity issue. Electricity has no religion. One cannot be anti-Jewish with electricity, so it takes the religion out of the equation. If Israel can resolve the conflict in the electricity supply, I think it is going a long way to resolving the overall conflict. Clear boundaries need to be established by Jews somewhere and electricity is a great starting point. It is like dealing with children who cannot behave. The responsible parents have to discipline their irresponsible children with love and firmness for the family to grow together in harmony.
