You also can't afford to wait to retake Gaza & destroy Ham'ass. Wake up Mr. P.M.

on you OU for letting this olmrat talk at your convention.The one responsible for a lot of pain and suffering in this land. You The OU prove to us the level of insensetivity and lack of connection to us the people who are paying the price as usual.So i hope that you OU leaders feel good about rubbing shoulders with people like that.On one hand you organized events for the victims of Gush Katif and then you invite its hencemen. The only threat to our country is olmert himself.His deceit and arrogance knows no bounderies. Your invitation will extend our suffering of incompetent leadership.You can not tell me that there was no one else ,of better character to invite.SHAME ON YOU and your political correctness. In the end it shows that even our rabbinical leaders have lost their common sense oy wee.

"I'm certain Israel will be able to cope with the different challenges, and that at any given time, when we need you, you'll be there for us" Yeah when you stop screwing around with the Jewish people in Israel and act as a Jewish leader should act and not a stupid puppet of the world CREATING YOUR OWN CHALLENGES FOR THEM.

Everyone knows that the disengagement that Olmert helped implement, and promises to repeat elsewhere in tiny Israel, is causing more and more suffering amongst Jews and Arabs. He diminishes Israel and yet the OU applauds?

for months, and all you do, is talk and talk and threaten and threaten and threaten. It's about time, you wake up and get to work.

That is a good question. But if Olmert (and Sharon before him) actually believed in Him, then Israel wouldn't be in the mess it is in now and would have gotten all three IDF soldiers kidnapped last summer. Olmert talked of a "more secure" northern border??? Preposterous. All that UNIFIL is accomplishing is keeping the IDF out of Lebanon while Hezbollah rearms and Syria has become even more embolden regarding the Golan Heights issue. No, I think Israel has lost it's edge and the Northern Border is far weaker then it was to begin with.

WTF are they talking about nothing in the north feels secure thriving economy for the banks maybe who want increase commissions in the bank coz the millions of shekels per month they make are not enuf... We can allow and bla bla bla bla..who is listening to him anyways, he screwed up and we are paying the price..in every aspect of our lives it affects one person or the other. Thankx things were looking bad but now they just got worse!!

How dumb can one be. I do agree that the U.S. and Israel both need to wage war with Iran and Syria, but not with the "dumbnamic duo" of Olmert and Peretz. Get someone like Netanyahoo in office first IF you want to win.

Might it be to get more PORK? I seriously doubt it.

To those posters who talk from their fancy condos, it's easy to give advice. We all do it. But the real MEN and WOMEN, are planning to go to their spirtual homeland, stay awhile, and put their lives (and fortunes) on the line. That is what makes a real Jew, not absurd criticisms of people who have responsibility of defending and (perhaps) saving Israel from extinction. Remember, if Israel goes, we all will go, sooner or later. There are millions of militia men and Muslims out there in the American heartland who, believe Mr. Richard's is a Jew. (Kramer, right?). If you don't believe me, just ask. As far as Iran, a few Israeli nukes should set their timetable back at least a generation, Bush or no and send messages to Syria, Lebanon and Egypt besides. Remember they thought Hitler was a clown.

Iraq with Al QAEDA Iraq controlled by Iran and Iran with AHMADINAJAD CONGRATULATION TO ISRAEL AND TO THE CONSERVATIVE GROUP WHO PUSHED G.PUSH TO INVADE IRAQ

I dont think that Israle has anything to worry about. This is not the first Persian minister that wants to exterminate the Jews. His ancestor HAMAN tried to do it some years ago, and we all know what his end was. History repeats itself.

Beg ahmediNajad and say Please leave us alone , Olmert well come to the New Middle east . Reality Check , world

It seems to have escaped Olmert's notice that Iraq with its new government has taken this past week the first steps in joining a three-way alliance with Iran and Syria. Iraq has already negotiated agreements which give the Iranians a claim to part of Iraq's potential oil wealth. The Iraq government is already on record as supporting Iran's nuclear weapons program and as supporting Hezbollah. Bring back Saddam! He was a threat to no one!

Responding to Olmert's speech, a woman from the OU delegation said: "Where was Hashem (God) in Olmert's speech? Why do Israeli leaders never talk about Hashem? Without Him, nothing happens," she added. ________________________ Olmert, wake up and smell the coffee. Israel belongs to the Lord. If You don't believe in G-d in your heart, say so. If you do believe in G-d, declare it.

If Iran strikes, there will be no time to respond as in past wars because Iran wants to destroy Israel and knows that anything less than a knockout blow is futile. Iran's facist madman is nuts enough to believe in the drivel they teach and he is preparing the way for the coming of the 12th Imam (Major drivel). He will use everything he has in his arsenal and the world will say 'OH MY' while Israel radiates. There is only one counter move against anhilation: Strike first, Strike hard and Strike them down forever, unless you like to see this happen every generation. Good Luck cause we're next.

He can start with Jews in North America who--despite appearances on Talkback--overwhelmingly support Israel's withdrawal from the occupied territories and even more overwhelmingly despise the policies of the current U.S. administration. And "Iraq without Sadam is better for Israel"?! Sure, Iraq is now a training ground for tens of thousands of militant terrotists who'll come knocking on Israel's door as soon as they've destroyed what's left of Iraq. A real success. Olmert is really full of crap. I can't believe what a disappointment he has been. The only thing that could come close to expiating him would be implementing the one policy he was actually elected to do: the realignment and withdrawal from the West Bank.

At the very least, Saddam has Ahmed de jerk to play with. rather than full time menacing Israel now. So, don't fool yorself Olmert

I havent seen a great Israeli politician since years. what is that ? is it about her culture been destroyed by American and Equropian culture. WHEN YOU THINK YOU WIN, PREPARE TO LOSE.( this is a fatherly advice from books.) Mr. Olmert The other ones.... Mr. President (you know what I mean) World support fineshed. Ahmedijanad. The gays... .... .... these are what seen to me. the truth. Israel is GOING TO DOWN. My friendly advice may be: Dont listen world Jews too much. LISTEN REAL ISRAELIES. WHO FACE EVERY DAY TERROR. AND IF IT IS POSSIBLE TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE OTHERS. WE ALL KNOW ONE THING : YOU GUYS HAVE GOOD BRAINS. USE IT FOR GOOD. You can.

that's alot... good thing there's 6.5 billion humans on Earth...and out of 6.5...1.9 are muslim... damn i'm glad there's 4.6 non muslim...so...yeah... we'll be ready ^ ^ How's that for a reality check? and we can continue taunting each other...but instead... let's work out a way to live with each other...to believe in whatever we have faith in without forcing them upon others. Instead of threats, let's start creating a new world where people can be who they are rather than what we want them to be. I dismiss your comment and mine. I invite you to start promoting tolerance and understanding. There's only one planet that 6.5billion people can call home.

I don't know where you get your information but, many small business in the north have closed because of the last war leaving their owners bankrupt and now in legal proceedings where was the government to help us like they promised? They were no where and still are, they sit in Jerusalem dreaming and lying to themselves and to us about the real economic situation here. If they are stupid enough to enter into another war the economy here will collapse further in the north and we will all be waiting for public assistance not from the government but from civic minded millionairs who donate to the people to help their lives., while the government ministers sit in Jerusalem and do nothing.

RESIGN FOR SAKE OF ISRAEL, NOT US
