look my israelli friends. all the hate ,stealing,killing have gone on for too long now. the whole world can see clearly what is going on.we have learnt to decipher the lies spewing out of the commercial media outlets.the answer is simple. recognise palestine,pull out from all occupied land ,dismantle your illegal settlements and nukes and finally, east jeruselum the capital of the new palestinian state.most your problems will be over and the whole world won't hate you

Nothing less then an open apology to the Israeli and Jewish people, and a personal letter of apology to Holocaust survivors and their families from Bishop Gregor Marai Hanke and those other 27 Bishops is enough, but still even if they did exactly that one would have to wonder if their apology would really be sincere.

Dear Carl, i have to diagree with you. I think Isreal has recognised the Palis by accepting to work with them in the unity govt. If you are talking about getting out of some of the settlements, look at Gaza. I think this has painted such a bad picture for the Palis that the Isrealis will not take them seriously for security reasons. If only Gaza was safe today and not a place for launching rockets then there would be trust on both sides for the Land for Peace process. Now about the nukes not with those threats from Iran, you would be crazy to dismantle your own nukes at this moment! for your last sentence i dont think the whole world hates them, just a few of you do. There are some open minded people who have no problem with the way they get around their issues doesnt matter what no number as opinion is not about numbers.

MY FRIEND, we israelis gave arafat EVERYTHING YOU MENTIONED IN YOUR POST at the tabah peace negotiations. barak and clinton together with the support of prince bandar from saudi arabia offered arafat 97% of territories, east jerusalem except the jewish and armenian quarters, gaza and almost all the west bank. they could have acceoted and had exactly what they want now....the same territories to build a palestinian nation. guess what....arafat refused, leaving the negotiation table without even counteroffer. read your history my friend and you'll realize that what you want israel to do now, has already been offered to arafat and he refused point blank!

ANTI DEFAMATIOAN SQUAD , WROTE TO THE JERMAN OFFICE PRESSING TO THE German Bishops must repudiate comparison of Ramallah. THE CASE SHOULD NOT BE CLOSED TILL BENEDICT 16 APOLOGISE. In future the Bishops should not make this kind o remarks. REPUDIATION of COMPARISON is not ENOUGH, APOLOGY TO ISRAEL AND THE JEWISH COMMUNITY AROUNG THE WORLD IS THE CORRECT REMEDY !ANYTHING ELSE IS INADECUATE !

well Peter, its very interesting that a Brit would make such hipocritical and ignorant comments. It is well known how Brits treat their minorties (with the exception of Arabs). We only have to see what Brits history is in places like India and Ireland. You actually should hide in shame, Peter. If you didnt notice, your ancesters are also responsible for attrocities perpetrated on Native Americans. Dont you forget how Engl;ish society started the trade in Indian scalps. That was a Brit thing. Needless to say, you have some nerve, Englishman, after what your country has dfone to many nations. I was in Israel last November (and it will surprise you that most of the tourists I met were Christians, like myself). I was in Haifa and in the negev, all over. Arabs living in Israel that are citizens have the same rights and work side by side with Jews and even....gasp....christians. It is a fact that Arabs are educated in the same universities. It is a fact that in Haifa you cant tell Arab homes from Jewish homes because they are intermixed. It is a fact that Arab doctors worked side by side with Jewish and Christain doctors in Haifa hospitals and elsewhere in Israel. Sound like a mistreated minority to you? If only nBrits were good. READ A BOOK< YOU IGNORANT LIMEY!!!! your remarks are not just stupid and outright lies, but are insulting to any human with an IQ or 25. If you would have kept your mouth shut, no one would have known how ignorant you are.

You ignorant, misguided nitwit. READ A BOOK, MORON!!!! Israel recognized Palistine as a nation in 1948. Maybe if you actually did read a book you would see what really happened was England promised the Arabs and Jews deals that England never intended on keeping. Your country betrayed both groups, Needless to say the Jews and Arabs have been fighting over it for decades. How dare you open your mouth. This conflict was incited by England. Big surprise that the Colonial power lied to its minoroties . Gee, the English never do such things....right. Is it no wonder why there was an IRA? Feel good about all those bombings, Englishman? Huh!!!!!. Have some shame, English. Take the bow over the current situation. You helped create it

But I think for a different reason. He seems to think that if Israel were to give up half of Jerusalem, leave their settlements and give palestinians a state, that peace would all the sudden blossom form the treetops...very naive!!! Palestinians want Israel to disappear...period!!! Their leaders say it all the time, their Imams preach it in the streets adn their children are taught this everyday of their life. People who do not get this or ignore this fact are dangerous to Israel and to the free world. Denying what is really happening on the ground is the worst mistake we can make, so the best thing to do is ignore people like #31 and learn that there are many like him out there.
