31. Solana: Time to end occupation
silvio ,   italy   (10.27.06)
Mr. Solana doesn't have good memory or he perhaps was not still born. In the 1967 the War was initiated from Egypt, Giordania, Siria. These tried to destroy Israel but they had stopped from the presence of heroic Israeli Commanders that they in seven days destroyed them. Then in the 1990 the rockets of the Saddam despot looked for still of shave to the Israel ground. For fortune the anti rockets Patriots did an excellent job. In the meantime kamicaze with explosive belts, they did thousands of civic corpses in the restaurants, in rooms from dance, in the buses, in the iper markets in all the Cities from Israel. All this Mr. Solana must hold present good before give rash judgments on whoever they are the aggressors and he attacked. Israel has stayed until too good. But the goodness of him attacked it must not be he I sprout for the arrogant persons of go on in their criminal intent. The Israelis are the Palestinesi. The West Bank is Israeli. The Moslems are the aggressors! Don't come forgotten, Mr. Solana!

Palestinians don't care about your 22 HUGE, Oil-Wealthy HOSTILE Arab countries. We only need our lands and homes which you live in now back. The only possible solution for the Jews to leave in peace and escape the anti Semitism of Europe is to leave with the Palestinians in one democratic land and give them back their homes and let them return to their land. You can not escape holocaust by creating holocaust on other people. Persecuting, killing, and robbing the Palestinians will not save you. You are trying to live on the misery of the Palestinians. I don't think that your conscious is asleep. It's awake but you're hiding it because if you agree with what |Israel is doing to the Palestinians then you can not be a human.
34. Solana's statements are meaningless cliches
Uzi ,   Haifa   (10.27.06)
The Palestinian Arabs have every right to resist Jewish settlement in Eretz Israel and pay the cosequences. Their suffering is caused by their barbaric (and ineffective) behaviour. It's entirely their own business (and Solana's of course). Solana's statements are meaningless cliches, otherwise known as bullshit.
35. spain expelled Jews, when does that land come back?
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica,CA USA   (10.27.06)
36. It is time for 2,000 years of killing Jews to end!
jason white ,   afula,israel   (10.27.06)
For 2,000 years the eurabians have been trying to exterminate the the Jews.They murdered,they raped,robbed,expelled and forcibly converted us.But after the Holocaust they are using their arab proxies to do the same. The eurabian murders of the Jews will never stop till we are dead. But their proxies will go after them next. Who cares what solana says.He is the enemy and should be treated as such.He should be made personna non grata in Israel and not allowed to set foot in our country again.

43. Occupation?
Avraham ,   Netivot   (10.27.06)
Solana has it wrong, it is the arabs who are occupying our Jewish land. Jordan is Palestine, let them go home!
44. Palis. are defeated People.
Sam   (10.27.06)
Solana please read your BIBLE if you care and closely read 1Samuel 17:8-9 ,50-52 .Goliath Palis. representative offered to fight the army of God and boasted that Israel should bring only one person to fight him and whosoever defeats in the war, the other side will serve them and become slaves to them. Because he trusted his size and his strength he sold out his people and GOD used small boy David to bring victory to Israel and the army of the Philistines fled, please remind them that their fathers fled from the lands they are now asking for so it is not the issue of 1967 land marks. They are defeated people Israel is only being soft they have not taken all the LANDS GOD gave to them in that WAR.

sir, i respect your opinions and feelings on the matter, even as an israeli jew. however, no matter how much you appeal to our humane side in understanding what the palestinians are going through, let me ssure you that they suffer more at the hands of their leaders than those of the israelis. the jewish land of israel is not theirs politically or historically or religiously. parts of this land was offered as a palestinian nation to arafat a long time ago, but he refused, continuing on the path of terror, killing any chance the palestinians could have had for a state of their own. the reason arafat did this is that he hated jews and israelis more than he wanted to see his people live side by side with israelis. he himself robed them of this great chance while he got rich off their suffering and misery. he used the palestinians shamelessly! today, the palestinian leaders and their government, or should i say, two governments that are killing one another, are repeating the same political suicide and diminishing the chances for the people to get a state of their own again. terror is not the answer, and do not give me the bs that terror will exhaust the israelis into submission. the basic truth here is that you guys do not wish for a state, do not wish to live with jews side by side, do not wish to get along with anyone....not even amongst yourselves these days. all you want is to wipe our presence in what you call your land. our land is a sovreinity. it was given to us by the world, by un, by all. because it is ours by right, historically and religiously. i am not a scholar, just a person who has been reading extensively about both opinions arab/israeli and know what the truth is. if the palestinians were left alone by their corrupt leaders, i am sure that the common man amongst them would have seen the light. would have worked towards a solution to end the suffering on both sides of the border. i am amazed that you should even contemplate a one state solution as most palis do. israel is a jewish state with a majority of jews. would you invite your bitter enemies for coffee and to share your home knowing they'd stick a knife in your back? a two state solution is the only option, tried in the past and failed because of your leaders' stupidity and lack of vision for trhe future good of the palestinians. do not blame the israelis for the mistgreatment of your people. when one is bent on your destruction, you don't just sit there and accept the bullets and bombs. be serious! ours is not a "treatment" of the palestinians, but rather a "response" to the violence that they committ on israeli soil and against israeli citizens. israelis don't just walk into gaza shooting people because they feel like it. it is against jewish nature to kill or be violent. but, it is in the nature of every human, and it is his right to protect his life and the place in which he lives. this is human nature. we respond. we do not initiate these violence. if you want to talk about the palestinian suffering, let me inform you that under the so called occupation of gaza, before the israelis left gaza for good, the life of the palestinians was 100% better than now when the army is not even there. the israeli government built in gaza a university, schools, infrastructure, lines to water and electricity, food was abundant, palestinians worked in israel and brought home salaries and put food on the table, hospitals were built and medical care provided by israeli doctors as well. the mortality rate of newborns in gaza dropped dramatically then for women and babies,you didin't see the poverty or misery you see today, militia extremists thugs were not walking up and down streets fighting each other and disturbing the area. no suicide bombers, etc...not like today. look what happened to the palestinian territories since israel left!!!!judge for yourself!!!!

50. Its time to end the EUs involvement
Michael   (10.27.06)
the mask is finally coming off. There is no question that the arabs that call themselves Palestinians have suffered. The Question is by whom? Why have all the arab countries in the U.N. continue to support their refugee status when they have an autonomous Government? Why does the PA have a police force of 28,000 police for 1.5 million arabs. While NYC has 28,000 police for 8 million? Why are the PA buying everytime of weapon and digging tunnels and not buying food and building infrustructure for their economy? why is Mrs. Arafat still holding Billions of dollars that belong to the PA? The duplicity of the Europeans has gone on for too long. its time for the E.U. to keep their opinions and bad advice to themselves. If they want peace with the Muslims. they should start carving out Europe and end the occupation of their Muslim Minorities. in europe. Until then E.U. find something better to do with yourselves.
51. #7 Bravo Jane, brilliant summary of the Palestinian issue
Ted ,   London UK   (10.27.06)
52. peace?
Andrew ,   Sydney, Australia   (10.27.06)
Reading most of the comments here you would think that the submitters were rascist faschists. Israel has already stolen most of Palestine, and when the EU foreign Policy Chief suggests a dignified treatment of the Palestine, from whom Israel stole the land against all international Law (remember, the UN Petition plan called for all Arabs living in Palestine/Israel to be left in peace and given full rights, not, as they were, driven off their land or slaughtered) most of your submitters seem to think he hates Jews. If you want peace perhaps you should stop provoking the people you have already humiliated and driven from their land.

ami ,   israel   (10.27.06)
isnt time for solana and his kind to end their job instead
54. Be thankful to the Europeans
Jamlo ,   USA   (10.27.06)
If it weren't for them, you wouldn't be in Palestine. I'll say it again, get down on your knees, and show grace and gratitude to those who helped you steal this land - THE EUROPEANS (well mainly British and French) The Europeans are the ones that paved the way for you guys to kill as much innocent Palestinians as you did, and then take their homes from them....

Martin Riley ,   Calgary, Alberta   (10.27.06)
Awesome comment and right on the button Jane. Israel should realize by now that the EU is no real friend, and their lap dog Solana is Anti-Jewish. He reminds me strongly of Jospeh Goebbels. The nations around Israel are nothing more than sharks swimming around a swimmer (Israel) in the ocean, just waiting for the right time to hit again. After several major attacks on Israel (wars) it should come as no surprise that the Arab quest for the death of Israel will not stop anytime soon. Mark my words, there will be another war because the Arabs cannot accept Israel, and never will. It's a core teaching of Islam, no more than the SS in Germany could accept it in 1939 to 1945. Here's a unpopular statement, but true nevertheless. Israel needs to not put her trust in men, but the God that brought her back into her own land.
58. 55, Sorry, but I refuse to learn the history you fabricate
Jamlo ,   USA   (10.27.06)
I base my knowledge on accurate facts. You ever heard of the Balfour promise?
59. ABBAS and the EU are full of s**t
MCW ,   NJ-USA   (10.27.06)
What amazes me is that the lands that the Palestinian Arabs claim, had disclaimed those territories when they were occupied by Egypt and Jordan. The Palestinian Arabs changed their charter to include those Territories in 1968, after the Arab defeat in the 6 Day War. Prior to the 6 Day War, the PLO did not claim those lands in their Charter. Remember, the PLO was formed in 1964,before Israel took control of those lands. In truth, this is not a fight over Palestinians lands, that is just a smoke screen. The fight is over a non-Muslim culture living in the so-called Muslim neighborhood. Most of those so called Palestinians that lived in the area prior to 1967 either held Egyptian or Jordanian passports.
60. Occupation
Yellowbirdwoman ,   Rapid CIty USA   (10.27.06)
Just as the Lakota people belong to their indigenous lands, so do other indigenous belong to their lands. A great spiritual law of the universe.
