3. give ehud credit
marcel   (07.14.08)
Olmert in Paris greases abbas and sarkozy, runs after assad for a handshake, avoids the israeli press, blames the cops for leaks, and denounces talansky. He's trying everything including selling israel out so that the prince of peace olmert will miraculously gain a peace and be reelected or have his legacy salvaged. Israel has to block his moves because rockets and bombers will hit jerusalem, Haifa and tel aviv.Olmert's PR man spins, his lawyers spin, Zaken keeps her trap shut(Olmert must have been giving her more than money), Haaretz spins. But the problems are now creeping into his wife and kids. They will be questionned. Ehud not only lies to israelis, he has lied to his kids and wife in order to impress him. Its not so bad. They will be able to visit him in jail, because that is where he is going. After spending big moiney defending himself, he will end up in jail just as Omri Sharon.Ehud, enjoy yourself. Think of how you screwed israel when you are in jail.Haaretz and the legal community and some MKs can vist their favourite in jail and tell him how great he is. Is it me or are his MKs a bunch of pathetic wimps like livni, barak, sheeret, ramon, hasson.
4. Keep the Golan for the security of the Galilee region and...
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (07.14.08)
Keep the Golan for the security of the Galilee region and northern Israel. If we give away the Golan. about a million Syrian residents will be settled in the Golan immediately.... A presidential decree has already been issued by Bashar Assad announcing that any Syrian resident who moves to the Golan will receive a government allowance... This will enable Assad to realize his dream with no interruptions: establishing a 'resistance' against Israel in the Golan Heights. Officially, Assad will argue that he has no connection to the terror attacks that would be directed at the Galilee region and northern Israel from the Golan; yet in practice, Syrian intelligence officers will do as they please vis-a-vis northern Israel, as they already did in northern Lebanon. Nowadays, the north of Israel is secure because the Golan is ours
5. 4#, Robert, the Syrians will destroy the Golan environment
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (07.14.08)
Robert, you are right that the Syrians have plans to settle 1,000,000 of their people in the Golan. Anyone who cares about the beauty of the Golan should realize that this will destroy the nature. The gazzelles, the wolves, the wild boars, the eagles and the huge vultures will all quickly become extinct just like the brown bears that used to inhabit the Golan.
6. Olmert must apologize for being a Jewish Israeli
David P. ,   Santa Cruz, USA   (07.14.08)
Assad won't shake hands unless Olmert renounces his faith and citizenship
7. #1 Simon, TA Israel. If Assad wanted to get further ....
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (07.14.08)
He should have offered Olmert an envelope with cash. There is a name for that kind of person. In any case, Assad is playing hard to get - his boyfriend Ahmeddinejad in Teheran might get jealous.
8. Olmert ,Assad a touch away
I.Kemp ,   Nahariya Israel   (07.14.08)
At least that is someone Olmert could not hug and kiss as he does to everyone in his shallow superficial way
9. I wouldn't shake Olmert's hand either!
redmike ,   Tel Aviv   (07.14.08)
10. Irony=BASTILLE,a place where both tyrants should be for life
Yonatan ,   Nahariya   (07.14.08)
Assad and our PM, our PM and Assad interchangable evil that need long rests in the secluded envirment of solitary confinment. Preferably for life sentences for the evil both are doing to each of their prospective countries.
11. don't blame asad for not wanting to shake his hands
chaim ,   brooklyn ny   (07.14.08)
even a gangster like asad would not shake the hands of this,criminally insane traitorous delusional cowardly gangster Ehud Olmert yemach shemo' people of isreal please,please get rid of this piece of human garbage before this swine has a chance to completely destroy your country
12. They are like two asteroids
guest   (07.14.08)
13. Signs are there, Assad turning his back on Olmert
NT Atilla ,   Tel Aviv   (07.14.08)
14. #9 & #11 spot on
Kissel   (07.14.08)
15. Assad knows quite well how to manipulate a naive, weakling
Miriam ,   Israel   (07.14.08)
like Olmert, who does not have the qualifications of leadership. Thus he can control him and get what he's aiming for.
16. Summit in Paris
Jennie ,   New York   (07.14.08)
The whole process of this Paris summit is a pathetic attempt of Sarkozy to sell Israel and show loyalty to the radical islam, his country has finally gave in to....Pressuring Israel to give up more and more land to enemies, who offering nothing in return, other then a promise to wipe the Jewish state off the map, makes Sarkozy a real enemy of Israel, enemy of the World Peace. It is clear, that most of EU countries are the same....Asad is only a puppit in the hands of iran, meaning hisbollah...It is really frightening to watch how the free world is giving in to a master plan of the evil forces around the world...This is not only about Israel...One only needs to follow world news..
17. 78 never gray
observer   (07.14.08)
Mubarak's hair becomes darker as he gets older
18. uprooted horns
abc ,   usa   (07.14.08)
France is one of the first three horns of the League of Nations/UN that is uprooted. Sarkozy is from the old Hapsburg Austria Hungary Holy Roman Empire. What benefit can we so naivley expect with his involvement.? WHAT?? The whole thing is a charade.
