1. grab a hostage and demand the release of sentenced killers !
michael ,   tel aviv & london   (09.24.06)
much as I'd like to see Shalit returned I hope our government (pathetic as it is) doesn't agree to the release of either Barghouti or Saadat. The only good thing about it (apart from getting Shalit released) would be that it would usher in a right wing Likud Beiteinu goverment much more quickly. Exchanging prisoners for hostages = more kidnappings. A very simple equation.
2. Release Shalit Now!!
Mark ,   USA   (09.24.06)
If Arabs truly want peace, release Shalit. There are 22 Arab countries that can pressure Hamas. This is their opportunity to show to the world they are partners in peace!!!
3. Thug negotiation
Brod ,   USA   (09.24.06)
The thugs must be out of their mind. If they are legitimizing kidnapping and murder, and have the temerity to bargain over the release of Shalit whom they kidnapped, they are thugs themselves. Israel should impose law and order in the society of lawlessness by putting the thugs in jail and let them face justice before the Law.
4. Abbas is no less a terrorist than Hamas
Cynic ,   USA   (09.24.06)
Funny how the "peace partner" Abbas is making demands for the release of Shalit. When will the Israeli leadership quit deluding themselves that this guy is different than Hamas.
5. Exchange prisoners for hostages!
MARK ,   USA   (09.24.06)
The family of Shalit have suffered too much for so long. Dayenu enough is enough We need to resolve this issue.
6. a simple solution to the prisioners problem
x   (09.24.06)
israel shuld make a new law instead of wasting money & time they shuld use 1 bullet in the head for terrorists,after it the prisons in israel would be empty and there wont be any reason to kidnap and demand because there is nothing to be demanded
7. how about this: shalit for israel not bombing gaza flat
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (09.24.06)
but, hey, if you palestinians can live with getting crushed, then enjoy the pounding!
8. Release Bargouti!
(09.24.06)
So Israel can assasinate the bastard
9. Abas: We'll demand....
Zaher ,   USA   (09.24.06)
This pupet Abas is dreaming. He cannot control [a.....]. He is part of the problem and not the solution. Let the government of Israil listen to the people of Palistein then the solution will emerge. Listining to few pupet here and there will not solve the problem it will complicate it.
10. Abbas
Joe Simon ,   Kfar Aviv, Israel   (09.24.06)
Wonderful! Reward kidnappers and murderers and encourage them to continue their nefarious activities.
11. # 1 totally agree with you , if you accept our view;
(09.24.06)
who is the prisoners and who is the hostage.
12. #6
(09.24.06)
Thanks for telling the truth about the israelis ideology...
13. #2
Zac ,   PA, USA   (09.24.06)
How pathetic you are when talking about peace. Why don't Israel show the world first that they want peace by returning the land of palestine to its original people and give the palestinian they're basic human rights. Your supremacy will soon end, start packing your stuff and get ready to leave...
14. Zac, PA, USA
Brod ,   USA   (09.24.06)
Why should Israel give its historic and biblical homeland to the Islamist-Jihadist occupiers who lost in their wars of annhiliation against Israel?
15. IT'S TOO SIMPLE , YOU ALSO CAN FORGET ABOUT SHALIT &
ARAB   (09.24.06)
LET OLMERT TELL SHALIT'S PARENTS THAT ISRAELI OFFICIALS ARE SAYING THAT PALESTINIANS MUST FORGET ABOUT BARGHOUTI
16. egypt a big sister?
jason white ,   afula,israel   (09.24.06)
More like a bitch!
17. Target assassinate abu grabass now!
jason white ,   afula,israel   (09.24.06)
Stop fooling around and get back to killing the terrorist leaders now.Make the gaza strip a free fire zone for our artillery till Gilad comes home.We also want all those responsible for the murder-kidnapping. Let them suffer in gaza.Why should we worry about our enemies?
18. At Last my message has reached the rightful people:
fadi ,   lebanon   (09.24.06)
from day one of the war on lebanon i requested the release of Barghuthi as part of the prisoner exchange deal between hizbullah and israel. Even if abbas backs off from this request ... hizbullah will ensure his release as aprt of the bigger deal with lebanon :D Advice to israel... read this carefully: better to release him through negotiation with Abbas... this will increase popularity of Abbas against Hamas. Otherwise if hes released as part of the Hizbullah deal... this will just increase popularity of hizbullah and nasrallah in gaza and west bank. And i think this is the last thing that you are looking for !!!
19. To "Zak"
Ivri   (09.24.06)
Whereever and Whatever you are,you are a blind fool sitting pretty in the USA,infront of your computer ,typing things that are so out of context,they expose you as the uninformed ignorant that you are. We are not packing and there is no "palestinian "people,nor "palestinian"land,go back to schoool and learn your history before you come on here and get labeled as an ignorant.
20. To 13
tom ,   bsas,argentina   (09.24.06)
Give back the land to it original people??? ja! Israel was built way before 1948 in the minds and hearts of jews. Tel aviv was built in 1912 I believe and not to mention how the Pals and all the arab countries before them, WANTED??? a country for themselves or them? Do they wanted a country when egypt was in Gaza and Jordan occupied West Bank? NOOO. only after the 6 day war that they begin to CARE for a state. But do they really want a state? NOO. THEY WANT ALL ISRAEL WIPE OUT, AND INSTEAD HAVE A PALESTINIAN STATE. They the pals have a mentality of death, destruction and hatred. Sure, after 67 war Israel DID DAMN WRONG to occupy those lands, but in 2005 they left Gaza, and what did they do? KIDNAPPED SOLDIERS, ROCKETS FIRED... etc. I only agree that they should have thier own staet, but not if they are run by people who are antisemitc, love death and teach hatred to young children and brainwash people. I am amaze that you ZAC of US of A ¨ care¨ for them, when in GAZA and West Bank they were celebrating 9/11 GOOD JOB MEN! kEEP UP WITH THE TERRORIST. i remind you that Israel GAVE BACK SINAI TO EGYPT FOR PEACE, AND THEY ACCEPTED IT. SO DON´T GIVE ME THE CRAP ABOUT RETURNING THE LAND BLAH BLAH. and surely I woud like to remind you that Israel fought all WARS because the arab countries still and want and wanted to wipe out Israel from the face of the earth. Only JOrdan and Egypt understood that peace can be done after years of wars, but the Pals don´t. You supremacy will end soon??? jajajaja 1948-2006/7 THEY TRIED TO DO IT. AND THEY ALL FAILED. AND WILL FAIL ONCE AGAIN. YOU KNOW WHY?BECAUSE OF THE MENTALITY OF HATRED, ANTISEMITISM, CULTURE OF DEATH AND BECAUSE THEY LIVE IN COUNTRIES WHEN THEY HAVE NO FREEDOM, RIGHTS,ETC. I ONLY AGREE THAT ISRAEL MUST LEAVE WEST BANK AS THEY DID IN GAZA LAST YEAR. yOU ARE PATHETIC ZAC. WHERE ARE THE MILLIONS FROM ARAFAT IN ALL THOSE YEARS? WHY DON´T THE ARAB LEAGUE HELPS THE PALS REBUILDING ALL THAT SHITHOLE AND LIVE PROSPEROUS. NOT ONLY THE OCCUPATION OF WEST BANK FROM ISRAEL WOULD BE THE ONLY EXPLANATION. THE TRUE REASON IS THAT THEY GIVE A CRAP ABOUT THEM. LOOK FOR JORDAN AND BLACK SEPTEMBER, LOOK FOR ARAFAT AND PLO WHEN THEY MOVE TO JORDAN, TO LEBANON... PATHETIC. Pack your stuff and leave??? JA! LONG LIVE ISRAEL.
21. To: Zac ,Pa ,USA
Mark ,   USA   (09.24.06)
Go to Gaza and help the Palestinian people. Why are you whining and complaining? Help them. Shame on you! Take Action! Have you been to Gaza? the West Bank? You need to promote peace. Careful who you curse! When you curse the Jews, you Will be cursed.
22. No. 13
Paul ,   London   (09.24.06)
The Palestinians have been denied basic human rights not by the Israelis, but by the Arabs themselves. Arafat - may he rot in hell - died with a very, very healthy bank account, having taken much - if not all - the money that was supposed to reach the Palestinian people. In addition, the growing number of Palestinians that support terror (the electorate voted in Hamas) make it nearly impossible to resolve the problems, since Israel will not negotiate with a terrorist organization such as Hamas. I am amazed at how people like you, who are "educated", refuse to open their eyes to what is really happening.
23. Accompice after the fact
Sidney ,   USA   (09.24.06)
With this demand, Abbas became an accomplice after the fact to the kidnapping of Shalit. When will the Olmert government learn that Abbas is an untrustworthy scoundrel?
24. 13 Your logic is flawed. Youre so
freedom ,   canada   (09.25.06)
called palestine is judea and samaria. How about all leave the west bank and put it back to the rightful owners the jewish people. At least then perhaps the christian minority will be respected and be allowed to practice its religion in peace.
25. 11 Sami Kuntar, do you want that disaster
freedom ,   canada   (09.25.06)
released as well..?
26. Olmerts time is nearly up.. Soon it
freedom ,   canada   (09.25.06)
will be likud and israel our home back at the top in the Knesset. Have fun when that happens..
27. 16 Makes sense now Abbas can show his
freedom ,   canada   (09.25.06)
true colors. The world we see how Hamas gets along with fatah..
28. Waste of tax payers money and bait for kidnappers
mike ,   israel   (09.25.06)
keeping murderers like barghouti in our jails are a waste of taxpayers money and they are just bait for kidnapping. One lethal injection, one bullet in the brain or a jolt of electric can solve the problem of the terrorists kidnapping our soldiers and civilians and demanding the release of murderers! The USA has the death sentence why don't we? We imitate everything else that the USA does!
29. Barghouti
moish ,   israel   (09.25.06)
We are not yet ready to release Barghouti, of the golden vocal cords. Barghouti is our biggest "zabzab" "shtinker" "jaisus' . He is still singing to the shabak, and when he is squeezed dry he will be programmed as their agent, set free and elected as PM of the PA. Imagine having our own man as the PM of the PA. We own Barghouti lock stock and barrel, that is why we don't release him yet!
30. 24 It is time for the west to disregard Abbas
freedom ,   canada   (09.25.06)
as a partner for peace. He has shown now to NOT be a partner for peace. End of the message.
