31. Divide Kochav Yair
David ,   California   (09.04.08)
Let him give up half of Kachav Yair as a capital for the Palestinians. Its a nice neighborhood, he will be able to be a great neighbor
32. Where have all the smart Jews gone?
leo ,   NY   (09.04.08)
At one time "Smart Jew" was a redundancy. Now with the likes of Barak, Olmert, etc, "Smart Jew' is an oxy moron.
33. giving J'salem is self-destruction
Mark Katzman ,   San Francisco, USA   (09.04.08)
Yes, give them east J'salem and west too, give them Judea and Samaria and maybe, just maybe Jews can atone for all of the anguish they've caused moslems by their existence! I assume that this is what Israelis think? The same ridiculous "guilt" trip that American misguided youth heaped upon the US. All I can say is that Israel is "nuts" to have allowed olmert to do the damage he's done. The arabs only want the destruction of Israel-they hate the Jew-it's in their religion and their daily schooling and the fact that Israelis even consider giving anymore land to them is absurd and self-destructive.
34. Even Lieberman would give Arab neighbourhoods for real peace
Sam ,   Canada   (09.04.08)
Well, it should be determined if the majority of Israelis and Palestinians even want peace. It's not so certain. Both sides have completely unrealistic expectations of what they will have to sacrifice to get it. There isn't much argument to be made with those who want a fight to the finish. Those who don't had better speak up or that's what they will get..
35. LET IT BE KNOWN DNA ACTS OUT
Monty ,   Seattle   (09.04.08)
Oh people of Israel let it be known by your children that Israel's previous governments especially Israel's present government have sold Israel and it's people out to the highest under/over the table bidders, in return they and their children inherit enormous financial & property gain as well as future super social status global wide. A select group of low profile high powered fast playing donors have made this possible with their personal and financial interests at the helms of each card dealt. Aliyah and Zionism is and was story book material only, accompanied by heart string playing Rabbis with their bible thumping ways it brought each aliyah maker here with millions of dollars behind each one under the name of "Donations", in on the buck where and are many. You all are being fed the news bit by bit and you better accept it and stay quiet, for if you really knew all that has and is transpiring on your behalf to your demise, you would lose all moral and whack yourselves, while others would just live in denial as many do today each day. Self denial is Jewish DNA only look to the Jewish history all the proof is in the pudding. Financial crisis along with terror and crime, wars and social conflict are the ways used to keep you all off track, it works every time and on all people. You want proof that you all are sheep in people's clothing huh ok great here it is, with all the politicians past corruption and blundering mistakes I am sure you will again vote for the same cronies this coming elections, thus sealing your fate. Have a nice awakening Monty
36. Jerusalem should not be divided.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (09.04.08)
Jacques Gauthier, a non-Jewish Canadian lawyer who spent 20 years researching the legal status of Jerusalem has written a doctoral dissertation on the topic of Jerusalem and its legal history, based on international treaties and resolutions of the past 90 years. Gauthier’s main point, as summarized by Israpundit editor Ted Belman, is that a non-broken series of treaties and resolutions, as laid out by the San Remo Resolution, the League of Nations and the United Nations, gives the Jewish People title to the city of Jerusalem. The process began at San Remo, Italy, when the four Principal Allied Powers of World War I – Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan – agreed to create a Jewish national home in what is now the Land of Israel. The residents of Jerusalem should be free to express by means of a referendum their wishes as to possible modifications of regime of the City. Given Jerusalem’s strong Jewish majority, Gauthier concludes, Israel should be demanding that the long-delayed city referendum on the city’s future be held as soon as possible as explained at : http://xrl.us/bi7qx
37. Disgusting
Leonard ,   LA, Ca. USA   (09.04.08)
I didn't even read it all it is so disgusting to see Israel become such wimps. I'm sure even God is getting a little impatient with this little country of people. Bow down to your enemy.Where are those people of the days of Entebbe?
38. Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem...
Yehoshua ,   New Jerusalem   (09.04.08)
You dont know what you do...dont play with fire, for all those who divide YHWH's given land, the apple of His eye, will be in danger of fire, for our God is a consuming Fire, do not forget that Yisra'l. This is the time to stand up and stand on God's promises and your rights. If you do not, you'll be held accountable as your leaders are already, and His fire is coming sooner than you think...wake up Yerushalayim, return to the LORD, repent and do the works befitting your nation and your position before the world and the LORD your God. You've been given life and death to choose from, now it is your turn to take sides, either your LORD whom called you out of Egypt or the rest of the world. His fire is coming. Choose Him.
39. #1 Yisrael Beteinu
Meir ,   Toronto   (09.04.08)
Lieberman advocates for land swaps. It should be front and center of negotiations. Not Negev land-rather, Israeli Arab areas of Israel that are contiguos with the Pal state.
40. HEY YNET THERE IS NO PALESTINE!
Palestiniansareamyth ,   USA   (09.04.08)
Never has been and never will be!
41. # 29 Aharon
Sagi ,   Israel   (09.04.08)
Thank you
42. What? He's nuts!
Petra ,   usa   (09.04.08)
