1. Even he can see it!
Jason ,   London, UK   (04.16.06)
It is the Palestinians who ,ust overcome the situation, not Israel. The offer is there for peace, but Hamas and the other terrorists stand in the way of peace.
2. He look like A King
Idan...   (04.16.06)
King Of the world... I hope he doesn't think he is a king or something...
3. Way of peace #1
Mohamed ,   Ramallah   (04.16.06)
I can't believe how some people intend to see the conflict through a very narrow vision like this..! Mr jason: Hamas came to power just 2 weeks ago, and it came to existance 10 yrs ago... however palestinian have been seeking freedom since 50 years.. So who stands in the way of peace...
4. #3 needs only look in the mirror to discover who stands in
Jonathan Levi ,   Jerusalem Israel   (04.16.06)
the way of peace. While you may have been seeking freedom for 50 years I can assure you it shys away from the well over 2000 years my ancestors were seeking THEIR RIGHTFUL lands. In truth you and yours have been the real occupiers and oppressors. Now your whinning because your roman boyfriends failed to do a good enough job of keeping us away from our homeland. Your whinning because your a bunch of theives who lost what they stole. If I take from a theif what they had stolen from me should I feel guilt? You know what scares the plastinians the most hamhed? getting back land. You know why? Because you've never in the course of the history of the palestinians (which is all a great 50 years) done anything on your own. Try working on your own for once and progressing your people instead of fighting a fight you can't win and by g-d's will should never win.
5. The POPE WOULD DEMAND the ETHNIC CLEANSING of JESUS CHRIST
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (04.16.06)
for being a Jew. The pope vehemently opposes G-D and the Bible. Jerusalem is mentioned over 800 times in the Bible, not once in the Koran. The violent and murderous dispute of Islamo-Fascists is with G-D. G-D states repeatedly in the Bible He has given Israel to all Jews as an eternal possession. Psalm 105:8 "He has remembered His covenant forever, the word which He commanded to a thousand generations. The covenant which He made with Abraham, and His oath to Isaac. Then He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant, saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance." Who will dare make war against this great, this mighty and awesome G-D - Creator of the Universe. Psalm 119:120 "My flesh trembles for fear of You, and I am afraid of Your judgments."
6. #3 - Mohamed?palestinians and peace = oxymoron
Arie   (04.16.06)
Why were your people so quiet about the long term occupation of Gaza and the West Bank by Egypt and Jordan? Only since 1967 did the palis start demanding things. Bottom line: palestinians and peace = oxymoron. You have not, and still do not, seek peace - you seek the annihilation of the Jews! Call it what it is - a pali attempt at extermination originally started by your leader Hitler!
7. How muslims treat Christians
Arie   (04.16.06)
Muslims, Christians fight for second day in Egypt Muslims clashed on Sunday for a second day with Christians angered by the murder of a Copt in the Egyptian city of Alexandria, witnesses said. At least one person was wounded when around 100 people began hurling rocks and bottles at each other in the city on Egypt's northern coast, where a Muslim on Friday stabbed six people, killing one of them in attacks at two churches. A Muslim died early on Sunday from wounds received in Saturday's violence, a hospital source said. Mustafa Said Meshal, 47, had been clubbed on the head. (Reuters)
8. for Linda
kate ,   england   (04.16.06)
The Pope obviously does not know his job. He is unaware that G-d's covenants are unchanging and irrevocable - it's nice to know that some people read the bible and know that Jews will get ALL covenanted Jewish land.....from the great Euphrates to the Nile.
9. POPE SILENT on ISLAMO-FASCIST HATE FOR ISRAEL'S G-D
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (04.16.06)
In the 1948 Islamic invasion, Jordan destroyed 58 synagogues in Jerusalem. Since 1996, Rachel's Tomb, near Bethlehem, has been attacked by Muslim snipers, bombs and Molotov cocktails. In October 2000, Muslims torched and destroyed the ancient synagogue in Jericho. In 2005 in Jewish Gaza, Muslims destroyed the synagogues where G-D was honored and exalted. Hamas flags flew from synagogue roofs as synagogues burned. Joseph is the beloved Bible hero of Jews and Christians. Muslims murdered IDF soldiers at Joseph's Tomb. Muslim mobs BURNED BIBLES and Jewish prayer books that gave praise and glory to the One great G-D, and destroyed the Tomb. In the Islamic invasion and filthy desecration of Jesus Christ' birthplace, Church of Nativity, BIBLES were TORN UP for TOILET PAPER. Inscribed in the Bibles are the Laws G-D gave to Moses; the Laws our Western civilization is founded on: Exodus 20: "You shall not murder" "You shall not commit adultery" "You shall not steal" "You shall not bear false witness" "You shall not covet" Exodus 21:16 "He who kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or he is found in his possession, shall surely be put to death" Leviticus 24:17 "If a man takes the life of any human being, he shall surely be put to death" Global Islamofascists seek the total destruction of Western civilization. JERUSALEM is MENTIONED OVER 800 TIMES in the BIBLE, not once in the Koran. G-D designated the Temple Mount to the Jews for His worship and prayer only. Muslims on the Temple Mount repeatedly engage in massive rock throwing at Jews, turning the HOLIEST place on earth into a common place of violence! Muslims have perpetrated massive desecration and destruction at Judaism's HOLIEST site, the Temple Mount. The OFFENSE to G-D is ENORMOUS! The Temple Mount must be returned to its Jewish owners immediately!
10. Pope's hat is on too tight
Preston ,   USA   (04.16.06)
Nice timing pope-y. The Sunday that Xian hatred for Jews is at its highest, this nazi pope calls for a Pal state, run by ham-ass murderers. May they both suffer enternal helfire (or whatever its that the Xians think is "down there") for their their eternal hatred of the Jewish people. Israel: Don't this overgrown hitler youth into your country. And stay the heck out of Auchwitz too.
11. for KATE
Drew ,   AZ, USA   (04.16.06)
Kate, I appreciate your support, however, as a Jew, I disagree with the desire to have a land from the Euphrates to the Nile. Today, there are countries with people who live there. It is not I who will be responsible to bring this land to the Jewish people, but G-d, if he wills it. This argument (for our land from the Euphrates to the Nile) only serves to deepend the crises with our Arab Neighbors and Anti-Jewish citizens of the world, who already view us as "zionist stooges" who came and "usurped their land" and have plans for "global domination" (all of these arguments are completely unfounded). Once again, thanks for your concern, and I'll be happy with the Israel I have today until the Messiah comes.
12. Israel
Pastor Lou Craig ,   Steubenville, USA   (04.16.06)
What G_D has given to Israel no man can give away, let he put a curse on his own life. Esther the gentile church needs to stand behinf Israel and get out of her replacement theology before she is soon swallowed up those before her. I stand behind and support Israel in her right to have her land, given by Adnoi to her. If the Palestians want land, let the Arqb nations give her some. They have the oil, they have the land, but will not do this, for in their heart lies the thought of destruction of Israel. Let the children of Hagar submit to the Mighty One, for every knee will bow and confess Adnoi one day.
13. Cardinal Nazinger, His holiness Benedictus XVI spoke.
Uziel   (04.16.06)
The second betrayal of the homeland of Jesus the jew,not the "palestinian" is done.
14. That is a joke
Mike ,   Vancouver Canada   (04.16.06)
Arabs don't care what the pope says. Did he forget how the Arabs have been harrasing and killing Christians. What a joke...
15. Does the Pope ever read the Bible?
(04.16.06)
Where does it say in the Torah that G-d wants to grant the Arabs dominion over Eretz Israel?
16. Two thousand years
jason white ,   afula,israel   (04.16.06)
For two thousand years you have killed,raped,burnt,tortured,hated,malined us. You destroyed our yeshivas,burnt our holy books and Torahs,converted us by force. Pogroms,the inquisition,the ghettoes,the labor and concentration camps. All of that is not enough for you? You want us to give away our only Holy land to infidels? You the former german soldier is on the side of our enemies. You want to give the palis terrorists a state,then give them the vatican! If Jesus was alive today he would be in and I.D.F. uniformwith his fellow Jews.Serving and praying with us,not you!
17. 3 Words: Daisy Cutter Vatican.
Jeremiah ,   Israel   (04.16.06)
18. Nazi Pope ................
Avraham ,   Netivot   (04.17.06)

19. Pope; Reads the Bible! There is no "Palestine."
Daisy ,   USA   (04.18.06)
It's all Israel! As a Catholic I apologize to all the Jews for the ignorance of the Pope. It's embarrasing.
