1. Swap the 5th column for the settlements
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.30.07)
An answer tp peace! They want to be part of the PA terror overnment so bad, the time has come to swap parts of the Galilee for the settlements on the West Bank. Win Win - or will the arabs prove themselves for what they really are and admit that their goal is not peace but our destruction http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/comment-stillman040802.asp
2. What about expropiation of Jewish Land in Arab World?
Dudu ,   Kfar Sava   (03.30.07)
Why is just one side's disenfranchisement being remembered??
3. Arabs will never escape the past...
DR ,   Florida, USA   (03.30.07)
They live in the past, teach their kids to live in the past and nevr progress out of the past. Their culture is doomed to stay in the dark ages forever!!!
4. Leave racists behind the border
Yossi Kedar ,   Haifa   (03.30.07)
Racists like (Mr.? Ms?) "Reality Check" should be left in the settlments when Israel ecvacuates the Occupied Territories and hands them over to the Palestinians. We will not miss them.
5. #1 - Ditto - but add Tali Fahima.

6. Treat Us Like Full Citizens Or We Will Kill You.
yoni   (03.30.07)
My, my; it seems that the arabs inside Judea and Samaria are exactly like the arabs in Gaza. Violent, unruly and bent on the destruction of Israel from within. What some fail to understand is they don’t want Israeli rights, they want arab rights, the right to riot and kill at their own discretion. This is just another reminder that the viability of moving the arab population outside the borders of Israel may be a much better solution than giving them land inside Israeli borders. It is very clear they want all the perks of Israeli citizenship but refuse to be civilized enough to be tractable around Jews for more than a few moments. No wonder Kuwait summarily deported all the arabs from the PA. It seems they have an extremely virulent anger of all laws even arab laws.
7. arab hutzpah!
oded   (03.30.07)
knows no limit or boundries... the arabs smell the weakness of the israeli"""leadership"""", if one could even call it as such..., but at the end of the day, the arabs will have to face the grimm realities--- this land is too smal and precious for 2 opposing cultures and nations. they will have to leave ,by hook or by crook. the sooner the beeter all of us.
8. They will never stop.................
Y ,   N   (03.30.07)
The arabs will never stop fighting Israel. When the palis get their own state sometime in the future the battle will continue among the arabs living inside Israels borders. They will be supported by other arab regimes and the pali state bordering Israel. You need to start looking far into the future now. And there is only one solution: The arabs in Israel has to go. And the best way of solving this problem is the formation of a pali state where all the palarabs can live together. Israel should now completely turn over Gaza to the palis and start negotiations for a pali state in Judea and Samaria. The border should not follow the green line but it should be a border that gives Israel security. Israel should also completely disengage itself from the palis. At least for the next decades. Let them live their own lifes and forget about them. The pali state would most likely become like the other arab states. A dictatorship which do not uphold human rights, dont bring their citizen any welfare, with corrupt leaders who steal their peoples money, with clan fighting, honor killings and all the evils that islam is bringing with it. But all this shouldnt be Israels problem. Israel should continue to build a good society for the worlds jews, maintain economic growth and be a liberal island in a sea of intolerant and destructive regimes. When Israel removes its arab problem i will assure you that cooperation with the west will grow even more. Maybe one day Israel will be part of the EU or NATO. Maybe one day you will be fully integrated with the west. As for the palis they can either sink or swim. If they develope a democrazy nothing would be better for Israel. But if they continue their present track Israel should just shut them out. Let them ask for help from their arab brothers. Let them live a life of missery. The pali leaders know little about building a nation and a lot about destroying.

Avi ,   Israel   (03.30.07)
Yossi, you might be the biggest buffon ever lived on this planet, and that taking into account our cousins from accross the river. You are writing from Haifa and you talk about occupation? you big numpty? don't you think they view Haifa as occupied territory? And they say the Jews have brains,,,,,I just give up.......
11. Revoke citizenship and deport to Darfur!
Yisroel ,   Passaic,NJ   (03.30.07)
If these people hate Israel so much, let them live in a fine Arab country like the Sudan! These are traitors to the state and they should be deported or executed.
12. Land Day
Yaf ,   Manchester, England   (03.30.07)
If they hate Jews so much, why don't they move to one of the 57 surrounding Muslim countries? And as for Tali Fahima-sod off, convert to Islam and go and apease your Arab brothers and sisters.. TRAITOR!!!
13. If thy wnt 2b treatd as loyal citizens-why all the PA flags?
(03.30.07)
14. #9...keep crying, you brainwashed fool!!!
DR ,   Florida, USA   (03.30.07)
This idea of liberating Palestine (a country that never existed) has been passed down by your people for generation after gneration. You are all puppets of radical Islam. You keep the Arab world united against Israel b/c if not for this, you would all kill each other, just like hamas and fatah, just like sunnis and shias in Iraq. Wake up and realize you are never goign to see Israel disappear. Your whole life will be wasted chasing after a delusion. Your people can t even figure out a proper sewage system for crying out loud. How the hell will you run your own state???
15. They should raise Israeli flags not palestiian ones
Rami ,   Nazareth   (03.30.07)
16. Dumb Israelis
leokam ,   houston,usa   (03.30.07)
Are you Liberal Israeli's getting the message yet? Or, are you still bending over backwards to appease the AHABS? Just look how low we have gotten here in America!
17. Rashis; Your land is in Saudi Arabia! PalesitneisaRomanwor d
Palestiniansareamyth ,   USA   (03.30.07)
The only people who lived in Israel a thousand years ago were the Jews. The Arabs came a thousand years later and stole the Jewish homeland. There has never been a Palestinian country, people, language, culture. It's a fraud. Please go back to Saudi Arabia and stop occupying American land!
18. #9 rashid
Jerred   (03.30.07)
Brothers? An arab loving another arab like one loves his brother ? AH! The only thing that unites you is your hatred to the jew. If your immaginary prophecy becomes true, you will start butchering each other.
19. Rashid, Pali
Ryan ,   Calgary, Canada   (03.30.07)
You need to have something originally in order to get it back. The poles belong in poland, did those pictures have flowing rivers of poop from burdened, malfunctioning and neglected sewage infrastructure. A long time ago a lot of that land in the ME was christian owned. Maybe I think I'll take up the cause to get it back. Live in the now buddy, not hundreds of years ago. Do something prosperous, productive and healthy for your people. Instead of being a burden to the international community.
20. Racism? Realism is a better term #4
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.30.07)
First of all the Golan is not occupied territory as you claim but officially and legally a part of our great State. Secondly, I find it remarkable that the minority of leftists in our state are so prepared to surrender to Muslim anarchy. I would have thought a walk down history would have taught you something? Obviously not. The arabs are DEDICATED to our death and you claim my reaction to that is "racism"? Perhaps it is time for you to either wake up, or perhaps move to an Arab State where you might be more comfortable! http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/comment-stillman040802.asp
21. Chairman for The High Follow Up Comittee for Arab Affairs??
Gil ,   Tel Aviv   (03.30.07)
What kind of silly name is that?
22. and you've escaped your human part
whoever   (03.30.07)
why should we deny our origin? we got integrated in the israeli society, but these people lost their relatives some time ago, just the same way you hold memorials for sep 11th, is that called "living the past", this is sheer ignorance, and inconsideration that seems to have taken over you (doomed you) forever.(although i hope the contrary will happen)
23. we did not land here from outer space
whoever   (03.30.07)
"This is just another reminder that the viability of moving the arab population outside the borders of Israel may be a much better solution than giving them land inside Israeli borders.",well that's the problem, you did NOT give us land, it's we who stayed in OUR homeland. or did you mean " they should have been kicked out?" well unfortunately for you, that did not happen, and there's nothing you can do about it. oh and believe it's unfortunate for me too that my grandparents stayed here too, i certainly would like better living conditions country where human rights are held in high regard.(please don't compare life here with life in jordan too)
24. you wish
whoever   (03.30.07)
25. and you should be deported to?
whoever   (03.30.07)
i thought i'd not meed so boneheaded people like you, i mean i dont have an answer for you, will you people never understand that this our original land?! i think you should be deported to the jungle, assuming that animals would accept someone like you.. because you know that even animals do have a protocol in their societies.
26. More twisted Arab justification
March on ,   Hypocrites!   (03.30.07)
Dhimmi status is great if you are not the dhimmi, right? If it's okay for Muslims to give other religious groups dhimmi status, then it's okay for them to except dhimmi status when they're not the majority governing body. Stop complaining about "2nd-class status" if that is all Muslims ever give to others; hypocrites!
27. Tali is one ugly girl. Rather have Bar Rafaeli on my side.
(03.30.07)
28. 5-th column ?
Gaston Boucher ,   Amsterdam, Holland   (03.31.07)
Revoke their citizenship and send them to the PA, they'll love the democracy there !
29. for non-israeli reader, this can be missleading
Rami ,   Nazareth, Israel   (03.31.07)
Even though I do not supprt the people who attended, I want to make sure that the readers understand, when the speakers talks about "fighting for and defending our land" they refer to arab owned land inside proper israel that has been sistematically confiscated to build army bases or expand jewish towns or kibutsim when the arabic towns are over crowded and need the land more than the jewish towns need it. It has nothing to do with the west banck, gaza or the peace process.
30. To #17: To this mythical guy!
(03.31.07)
4 Die Keilinschriften and das Alte Testament, p. 181. These explanations are endorsed by Driver (Genesis,on Gen. x.). 6 See the relevant articles in Ency. Bib. and Cheyne's Genesis and Exodus. from about 4000 B.C. 1 a wave of Semitic migration poured out of Arabia, and flooded Babylonia certainly, and possibly, more or less, Syria and Palestine also. Also that between 2800 and 2600 B.C. a second wave from Arabia took the same course, covering not only Babylonia, but also Syria and Palestine and probably also Egypt (the Hyksos). It is soon after this that we meet with the great empire-builder and civilizer, Khammurabi (2267-2213), the first king of a united Babylonia. It is noteworthy that the first part of his name is identical with the name of the father of Canaan in Genesis (Ham or Kham), indicating his Arabian origin. 2 It was he, too, who restored the ancient supremacy of Babylonia over Syria and Palestine, and so prevented the Babylonizing of these countries from coming to an abrupt end. [3] From Bernard Lewis book: "According to this, Arabia was originally a land of great fertility and the first home of the Semitic peoples. Through the millennia it has been undergoing a process of steady desiccation, a drying up of wealth and waterways and a spread of the desert at the expense of the cultivable land. The declining productivity of the peninsula, together with the increase in the number of the inhabitants, led to a series of crises of overpopulation and consequently to a recurring cycle of invasions of the neighbouring countries by the Semitic peoples of the peninsula. It was these crises that carried the Assyrians, Aramaeans, Canaanites (including the Phoenicians and Hebrews), and finally the Arabs themselves into the Fertile Crescent." From History Channel[4]: "The earliest known events in Arabian history are migrations from the peninsula into neighboring areas. About 3500 bc, Semitic-speaking peoples of Arabian origin migrated into the valley of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Mesopotamia, supplanted the Sumerians, and became the Assyro-Babylonians. Another group of Semites left Arabia about 2500 bc and settled along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea; some of these migrants became the Amorites and Canaanites of later times." From MSN Encarta[5]: "The earliest known events in Arabian history are migrations from the peninsula into neighbouring areas. About 3500 bc, Semitic-speaking peoples of Arabian origin migrated into the valley of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in Mesopotamia, supplanted the Sumerians, and became the Assyro-Babylonians (see Sumer). Another group of Semites left Arabia about 2500 bc and settled along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea; some of these migrants became the Amorites and Canaanites of later times."
