1. I wonder if the Palestinian people are seeing the light yet.
Yonatan ,   USA   (06.01.06)
2. Two state? You already have it. Go back to Jordan Palestine
David ,   Boston, USA   (06.01.06)
End this experiment of creating a second Arab Palestinian state. Arabs have already stolen 80% of the land promised for the re-creation of Israel. Stop giving them any more. Finish the peace fence and redraw the border through Judea and Samaria.
3. The only practical thing is destruction of Israel
Arab Hater   (06.01.06)
When the truth must come out, it must, destruction of the Jewish State is the only political platform Hamas has. Time to dismantle PA.
4. Arab peace is an oxymoron
Arie   (06.01.06)
5. Hamas and Arab peace initiative
Sam ,   Canada   (06.02.06)
A bit of face saving by the hardline Al-Zahar. Palestinians may be realizing it's time to do something positive.
6. Abbas and his deadline - he may find himself just dead
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (06.02.06)
Hamas and genossen - may send him to the virgins The only poeple that can carry on like murderes misfits - and still the world lets them blabber
7. Mr. al-Zahar is a man who speaks from his heart.
howard ,   pacific coast, usa   (06.02.06)
And what is in his heart is bottomless hatred, endless bigotry, a desire to commit genocide and an inferiority complex the size of a planet. This is a man who is so challenged by the real world that he believes that there is no solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict besides a genocidal massacre of the Jews. And he believes that such a solution is "practical." HAMAS and Mr. al-Zahar are, of course, very inconvenient for the Palestinians. The Palestinians are in a hole, and HAMAS/al-Zahar keep digging deeper. When Palestinians blame Israel or the US for their problems, they are completely wrong. Their biggest problem is -- as it has ALWAYS been -- that they consistently follow leaders who prefer trying to destroy Israel to trying to build a peaceful and prosperous state.
8. Rejection
yakov shani ,   IL   (06.02.06)
and again rejection and more rejection and another rejection. Since 1917 to this day the Arabs have rejected every single plan presented to them by all and any country, government ,international agency,committee or representative. That is ninety years of no, nyet, non, nicht. All this in spite of losing so much along the way, not to mention total defeat in a few wars. When will we finally get the message that the only thing they want to discuss is our expiration. They have given up on wars and had hopes of the womb as their secret weapon. This won't work if we implement the cowardly convergence. Their hopes are now pinned on Iran as their saviour. They will not give up their hope, we must not give up our land.
9. Dismantle the PA NOW !!
Franck   (06.02.06)
Give back the responsability for the 3 millions arabs of Yesha to Israel Put IDF soldiers on Gaza central square And the Israelis will really understand what occupation is, and what are the consequences of this choice !! FREE PALESTINE
10. #9 - I have no idea what you're talking about ? Be clear !
michael ,   tel aviv & london   (06.02.06)
11. impractical: it will limit their abiblty to kill jews
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (06.02.06)
after all, killing jews is what life is all about for them. and to agree to anything that limits their reason for living is, well, impractical. makes sense to me.
12.  El Zahar El Bracticali, ya Saidi
yakov shani ,   IL.   (06.02.06)
In the name of practicalty could you please stand up in front of the world, on all the major media networks, and announce to the world, in English, that the only practical solution to your problem, i.e. Israel, would be the total destruction of same by any means possible. This would clear up any misunderstandings that a lot of people in the world have. We could then possibly find a practical solution to our problem, i.e. you and your misguided people.
13. Muslims ALREADY HAVE a PALESTINIAN STATE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.02.06)
In 1922, Britain illegally gave 80% of Jewish Palestine to Muslims. The area became Jordan, GIVING MUSLIMS AN ARAB PALESTINIAN STATE on Jewish land. Jordan is part of ancient, Biblical Israel, and along with present-day Israel, including Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Golan was recognized by the League of Nations as the Jewish homeland. The so-called Arab-Israeli conflict - the Arab war to exterminate Jews - is part of global jihad. Oslo-Road Map and all the agreements greatly empower and encourage global jihad. Muslims declare openly they want all Israel and the entire world subjugated under Islamic rulers governed by sharia law. People around the world look to Israel, on the frontlines for the battle for freedom, to stand strong against the onslaught of global jihad - not to surrender Jewish land to global jihadists. End the betrayal of Jews and all non-Muslims. Stop the surrenders to global jihad.
14. When will people get it????
DR ,   Florida, USA   (06.02.06)

15. Did a-Zahar spit on them?
