1. Go with caution
Jakov   (02.03.08)
There's a reason why Qatar has excellent relations with these enemy entities. It is important to always keep in mind that they are engaging the Jewish state from the perspective of a sympathetic thrid party to the Palestinians and Hezbollah. While they could prove helpful, they could just as easily prove not.
2. davos isnt secret, and if its on ynet is surely isnt
jack bauer   (02.03.08)
unless it is leaked on purpose so that ynet can spin it a certain way..... thanks again ali ! You show your true colors when you write stuff like -"Good relations despite support of Hamas, Hizbullah "- I suppose in your lala land good relations include supporting the terrorist enemies that seek the destruction of your people and country......oh, wait, its not your people, eh?
3. Declared Enemy
Brazilian Jew ,   Porto Alegre   (02.03.08)
My Jewish Mom taught me I would rather have have an enemy than a false friend...
4. qatar
colin   (02.03.08)
Barak will do anything in his attempts to gain points and now appoints himself the foreign minister with a meeting with qatar.The corrupt olmert is to cowardly and incompatant to even repremand the self centered barak.
5.  Are we ready for a change ?
Harold Lane ,   Tel Aviv   (02.03.08)
Since a ceasefire can turn into war at any moment, Israel must retain the territory needed for its defense, and maintain a deterrent military power to prevent the enemy from surprising her. Any sign of weakness is a clear call to the Muslims to renew Jihad, as they have been doing in the Gaza Strip, especially after the unilateral evacuation and the destruction of the whole Jewish region there. It should always be remembered that the Arab Islamic side calls for a ceasefire only when confronted by a strong, determined enemy, and keeps the ceasefire to some extant for as long as the enemy remains strong. There is, therefore, only one guarantee against war and the annihilation of Israel: military strength and the constant display of this strength by winning small skirmishes as well as major wars. Anything that even seems like an Israeli military setback is an invitation to another war. The Arabs and Muslims observe ceasefires only under the threat of terrible retribution. Nothing else. Any Israeli or Western leader who thinks that the Arab signature on a document guarantees that it will be kept, is deluding himself, and displaying dangerous ignorance. For that reason a new leader cannot ignore this alternative as described at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/stop-them-with-clear-cut-victory-part-i.html
