1. AND HOW MANY FEWER QASSAMS AND HOMICIDE BOMBERS PROMISED?

The UN anti-semitism continues unabated. As does the UN biases and bigotries endemic to the organization. The arabs destroyed this international body and it's clear that they continue to use this organization to flog the dead horses of their perverse anti-Israel anti-Jewish logic.
2. UN= FASCISTS - UN IS IRRELEVANT AND BIASED

3. What about the "significance" (security) for Israel?
gamba & pilpel   (04.11.08)
We won't bow to your orders if our security is not 100% guaranteed.
4. I Can Live With This Mistake
emanon ,   usa   (04.11.08)
In reality, *NONE* of the roadbloacks should have been removed. If not as many as originally stated were removed, well, that's OK. Oh, by the way, what did the terrorstinians promise to give up in exchange? I'll give you a clue: Close your eyes and what do you see? NOTHING!
5. Poor Israel
BJV ,   SA   (04.11.08)
It is unbelievable how the Israeli government just keeps on giving. The audacity of anybodyto complain that Israel has not done enough is just ludicrous, considering that the "clothheads" just carry on in thier persistant attempts to blot Israel off the map. I must wonder what it will finally take for Israel to take control of this situation for the people of Israel.
6. ISRAEL MUST REMOVE BLOCKS FOR THE KIND LOVING PEACEFUL ARABS
ANY JEWS ATTACKED ? ,   NO !..........DACON9   (04.11.08)
7. Little or no significance? Ok. Then put them back up.

Noah ,   New York, NY   (04.11.08)
You lie to us, you manipulate our government with AIPAC, you high-five each other when the planes hit the WTC, your rabbis question which one of us are really Jews, and then you call us "self-hating" whenever we have the nerve to ask where our money is going? How are we supposed to defend you on college campuses when you stab us in the back? What's our motivation to stay in this abusive relationship? This is why you are losing young American Jews.
9. UN mathematical
eh-oop ,   UK   (04.11.08)
So 11 could not be found? That makes it 55 of the 61 that weren't there, not 44. Mind you, it's a shame they were removed at all if, in OCHA's esteemed opinion, (and when did it last concern itself with Israelis' humanitarian needs for security?) they were of "little or no significance".
10. The Demonization Of Israel
Mark ,   Boston   (04.11.08)
The World is destroying to destroy/ weaken Israel and they are pressuring its leaders to do the same! Israel is fighting for her Survival. It is 1948 war all over again.
11. #8, Many people share your views

12. Remove, Then Reinstate
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (04.11.08)
If I were Israel I would say and do the following: tell the UN official that the roadblocks and other barreirs will be removed. HOWEVER, IF there is one incident linked to the removals, they will immediately go back up. The proof is in the pudding. Israel wins both ways: it satisfies the world community, and it puts the onus on the Palestinians. I understand there may be dire consequences, but what more does Israel really have to lose? Oh Btw, once restated, there will NEVER be a further discussion of removing them. Condi wants Israel to make conessions for peace, okay let Israel oblige her. My view is that the peace won't last 1 day.

We are not losing proud young American Jews. We might lose groveling, apologetic imitation Jews like you, Noah. Then again, that is really not a loss, since we never had you in the first place. Nor do we need you. It is not Jews like you that were midwives at the rebirth of Israel.
14. Why Will Israel Not Comply?
Edwin   (04.11.08)
Israel is not fighting fair! How can the Pali's have a chance at committing acts of terror when Israel won't stop defending themselves? Condi, you had better think of a different tactic.
15. Road Blocks are Essential
Brod ,   USA   (04.11.08)
It is NONE of the business of the UN and Rice to preach to Israel about road blocks. If they do insist, they should be held responsible for the deaths of Israelis by Islamist-Jihadist suicide bombers arising from the removal of the road blocks. Hence, it is better for them to shut their stupid mouths. In the first place, Rice, the UN and the world of Antisemites should stop crusading the Jihadism of the Islamist-Jihadists on Israel. Modern Israel is on Ancient Israel. Israel belongs to the Jews since 4000 years ago. The Islamist-Jihadists who originated from the Abyss of the Arabian Desert in the 7th century should stop usurping Israel from the Jews. It is none of the business of the Islamist-Jihadists to usurp Israel's liberated biblical and historic homeland from the Jews.
16. Israel break it's promise to Rice
I.Kemp ,   Nahariya   (04.11.08)
Too good to believe but I am delighted beyond measure !
17. To Jane #13
Noah ,   New York, NY   (04.12.08)
"Groveling, apologetic" - sure enough, I criticize you, you label me as self-hating. It's like you read my post and decided to act it out. Jane, let me put things in terms that I'm sure you'll understand: you're spending my money, my government's diplomatic capital, and my fellow American Jews' trust. I want to see it accounted for.
