4. Bush is Israel's enemy
Zoli ,   Budapest   (01.11.08)
He forces on the weakling Olmert a treaty. As soon as he leaves office, a new terror war will be started. This time, the new state of Palestine will request arms and even troops. The aim will be the to force Israelis to flee the increasing terror, then to eliminate Israel. Bush is a Saudi puppet. Olmert is a puppet too. Israelis are complacent because of the relatively good economic situation at this moment.

8. Help???
Natan ,   USA   (01.11.08)
If so, where have you been in the past 7 years??? Let's face it, GW has led the US to the biggest blunder ever in history. His legacy is marked by thousands of dead soldiers, billions of dollars wasted. His attempt to, so called, bring peace to the middle east is nothing but a PR move to try to save some of his legacy!!!
9. Sorry George, Jesus Was A Latecomer

Simon Mohammed ,   USA   (01.11.08)
fighting terrorism. just think about it, and I hope you will see that
11. 60th anniversary celebration
mr ,   israel   (01.11.08)
Bush accepted Olmert's invitation to be here for our 60th. What is wrong with that ? Bush is a fine, upstanding individual and I bet you all (derogatory TB's)wish you had his position. He's a true friend and fine human being.
12. There May be something significant happening in MAY...
Psalms 83 ,   Selah USA   (01.12.08)
But I have a strong feeling it isn't what Bush wanted....
13. Walking in Jesus' footsteps?
Che Vive ,   Ghetto Beach, U.S.A.   (01.12.08)
Maybe next time he visits you could fashion him a full sized cross to drag around and offer to decorate him with stigmata. But come on, Israelis, you could at least try to take this whole process a little seriously. From closely reading the articles about this visit over the last few days it's pretty obvious that Israel is essentially refusing a peace deal here. Olmert's setting conditions the Palestinians can't possibly meet... end rockets from Gaza without dealing with Hamas? How'd you expect Abbas to do that? And even then he won't rule out "natural growth" of "population centers" and demographic manipulation of Jerusalem? What a joke! And that Rabbi handing Bush a letter saying the peace process itself was "against G_d's will" and basically insulting him to his face? This whole thing's just a big carnival to you, isn't it? And the whole while you're still clearing Bedouin from the Negev inside Israel and more settlers keep moving into the West Bank just to further inflame the situation. Chutzpim nation. You have to keep blindly pushing, never caring about whom you might alienate. Bush may be a scumbag and an idiot, but you might be able to do yourselves and the world a favor by helping him secure the legacy he's so desperate for.
14. Bush stay home and stay quiet
Petra ,   usa   (01.12.08)
there will be no peace with the pals because the advantage for them is to keep firing on Israel. Bush says nothing about the rockets. What a dolt. If he wants the pals to have a home, invite them to live in Crawford Texas. They should feel right at home. All that land and one willing to be their neighbor.
15. People visit Israel and want to come back, even a US
Rivkah   (01.12.08)
President. Mr. Bush was in Israel before he was elected US President since visiting the three I's (Israel, Ireland, and Italy) carries a lot of weight with American voters since there are so many citizens of those ancestries.
