2. Absolutely ridiculous
Avi Noam ,   Jerusalem   (11.30.08)
I am so sick of this Israeli government.
3. What good will gesture have they ever shown us?
Chaim ,   Raanana   (11.30.08)
The cabinet should have approved releasing Olmert to Abbas! Our Gvt. is a disgrace they have abandoned Shalit and Pollard! not to mention the residents of Sderot
4. No! Stop this disgusting move NOW!
We the People ,   Israel   (11.30.08)
I don't care if the up and coming festival is Eid el-Adha, Christmas, the Second Coming of Christ or the arrival of the Messiah, no Arab terrorist's family must be allowed to celebrate while our child, Gilad Shalit is in the hands of barbarian terrorists! Please, somebody with some sense of decency, on the Right on the Left, file a Motion for an Injuction to prevent this absurdity from happening in the High Court of Justice! Terrorists are not entitled to Human Rights while Gilad has none!
5. Criminals freeing criminals.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (11.30.08)
Keep this in mind when you vote in the upcoming elections.
6. a Barak s victory with terrorism...
elie   (11.30.08)
7. Ministry of Agriculture is happy,...
Gideon Reader   (11.30.08)
...to report a bumper crop of Bupkis this year as in recent years. In return for the many prisoners released by Kadimacrats, in it's relentless confused political malpractice; Abu Abbas the elder statesman of the Palestinians has turned the other cheek,....and broken wind. Ahhh. Peace is at hand.
8. Minister Jacob Edery Speaks the Truth
emanon ,   USA   (11.30.08)
No more "gestures" unless Israel gets something in return besides more acts of terrorism.
9. where Is Gilad Shalit
Gabriela ,   Israel   (11.30.08)
It's a shame
10. sorry for the soldiers who risked their lives capturing them
dima   (11.30.08)
11. Tzipi Livni
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron Israel   (11.30.08)
If somebody doesn't understand plain english, this means Tzipi Livni voted YES!!!! She is the same that Olmert, or worse, since she says white and means black!
12. I am ashamed and embarrassed by out supposed government!
redmike ,   tel aviv   (11.30.08)
Livni said, "Olmert must resign"and many others have said that "he has no moral authority ot make decisions". If that is the case then ministers should refuse to co-operate with Olmert on 'everything' so that he is shown to be completely powerless. Instead they continue to rubberstamp his proposals! Mike
13. Cabinet that voted for this is comitting treason!
JAyjay33 ,   ISrael   (11.30.08)
14. 10 terrorists have just completed their mission in india
virginia orrall   (11.30.08)
and now olmert still wants to release 250 more so that they can complete their mission here? this doesn't make any sense to me---maybe i should go and see a psychiatrist to find out what is wrong with me?
15. 300 Prisoners ,But To You ...
Lawrence Tendler ,   Zefat Israel   (11.30.08)
Only 250.Who says Mr.Olmert does not know how to make a good deal?

dumb dumb dumb
18. We should be putting Olmert in Prison IMMEDIATELY not freein
meir elazar   (11.30.08)
freeing terrorists. Anyone who voted for releasing Kuntar and other terrorist should be put in prison to replace them. Their culpability for complicity to terror by proxy approaches the responsibility of terrorists for their actions. OLMERT TO PRISON NOW!!!!!!!!
19. AND KADIMA STILL HAS 26 MANDATES? ISRAEL DESERVES ITS LEADER

20. Is there anyone who understands this?
Adam Eliyahu Berkowi   (11.30.08)
21. WICKED Cabinet Response to Mumbai Massacre
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (11.30.08)
Under U.S. pressure, Israel has released thousands of terrorists over the years including evil child killer, Kuntar. Muslim killers of Jewish children are adored-Palestinian Authority newspaper al-Hayat al-Jadida called savage child-killer Kuntar "a beacon of light" and an "authentic role model." PA leader, Abbas, called Kuntar a hero. Syria's Assad said Kuntar was chief among honorable men and awarded Kuntar Syria's highest medal, the Syrian Order of Merit. The jihad is global. Will the released terrorists target Israel alone, or will some of them go on to wage jihad against Mumbai, India and other countries?
22. Its SAD so Sad....
Gabi ,   Israel   (12.01.08)
23. # 4, I am with you!
Ginette ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.01.08)
Please someone STOP this madness! I know Olmert (Olmerde!) will burn in hell for what he has done to the State of Israel, but please stop this at any cost by filling a motion to abort this non-sense. The soon to be convicted ex-PM has no regards for human life, mostly Jewish human life...Can't somebody stop them in time? This goes beyond imagination, beyond human decency. Has everybody forgotten that Abbas was braging not too long ago that he "engineered" the Munich massacre? Come on People, wake up. The Knesset should be dissolved now...why wait for elections? How much suffering should Israel and Jews all over the World sustain? Something has to be done and soon! Whatever your choice of candidate is in the upcoming election, think hard and make the right choice. My heart goes to all the victims of Mumbai massacre.

yahn goodey   (12.01.08)
hazard to the peace of the rest of this world by releasing known terrorists. once out of our custody then they are free to go anywhere and continue with their "jihad" against innocent citizens just trying to survive in peace on this planet. olmert and those that support him should be tried as war criminals for their irresponsible behavior of endangering human life on this planet.
