1. one day.
stephen ,   ludlow usa   (12.06.08)
someday the Jewish people will wake up, and will find that their leaders are not even Jews at all. Some shepherds are only wolves in guise.
2. Bush is wrong
Rami   (12.06.08)
The Mohammedan religion has never relinquished its terrorist tactic for its strategic plan to conquer the world. Islam is winning, no question, no doubt, all over Europe, including the UK, as leaders force the population into shari'a law. Because Bush refused to clearly name the enemy (Mohammedanism) he was unable to win neither in Afgh. nor in Iraq. He is wrong, wrong, wrong and like all gentile leaders thinks he can compensate by pressuring Israel as Israel is an easy mark.
3. wow Bush
yossi   (12.06.08)
"The day will come when al Qaeda, Hezbollah, and Hamas are marginalized and then wither away, as Muslims across the region realize the emptiness of the terrorists’ vision and the injustice of their cause..." This is a very powerful and articulate statement. Whoever thought Bush was less than intelligent should read it. He sounds more of a prophet than a politician here. Let's just hope, and all we can do is hope (since the Muslims could care less what we say and instead must learn on their own), that what he says here comes true.
4. future
colin   (12.06.08)
Bush sums up 8 years and still thinks he will change the future.500 years since jews came from egypt to claim the state of Israel and bush thinks he can give have to some arabs that have 5000 times more ground than they need. SWEET DREAMS IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN
5. The Land of Israel is ours by Historical and Moral right.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.06.08)
The Land of Israel rightfully belongs only to the Jewish people. The notion of two states for two peoples in the land of Israel cannot be accepted as the land of Israel rightfully belongs only to the Jewish people and to divide our country would be an historic injustice. As it is well known, the conflict between Israel and the Arabs is not a territorial one. If it were a territorial conflict, it could have been solved a long time ago, by territorial concessions, which have been offered a number of times to the Arabs, and rejected every time… As to the legitimate rights of the Jewish people (3 parts): http://xrl.us/osjoz
6. Abbas the moderate.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.06.08)
Abbas is not a moderate, as the Israeli and Western world believes, and his actions confirms this evidence. He approved the official “Fatah” poster, which shows all of Israel as “Palestine” and includes a rifle and an oversized picture of Yasser Arafat. Abbas is also a “Holocaust denier,” who has wrote his PhD thesis and a book on the topic. He glorifies suicide bombers and recently, praised Hamas. “It is astonishing that the Israeli and American media, George W. Bush, Ehud Olmert - all ignore all this … believing that if you give him a state, maybe things will be okay, maybe he’ll revert to being totally decent. The Israeli government tries the peaceful route because of pressure from Europe and America, but fails to appreciate that Congress would support them if they refused to negotiate with the Palestinians. The PLO was created in order to serve the Soviet Union as explained at : http://xrl.us/bi3id
7. Shalom haver
Frank ,   Canada   (12.06.08)
This day will come in several centuries.
8. 2 States - Saudi Arabia/Palestine!
Hinda ,   SF Bay Area, Calif   (12.06.08)
That's what should be split -- allow Saudi which has alot of land to give -- give to the "poor poor" Arabs who do not want to live in the 21st century with Jews, Christians, Bahais, Darfurian Refugees, etc. in other words, "Palestinians" (who were not really that until Prophet Araputz said so).
9. Summing it up
David   (12.06.08)
His political achievements have turned out to be as bankrupt as his economic policies. He has ruined the Republican party, brought Hamas to Gaza with his and Ms.Rice's delusional attempts to create a new democratic M.E. and the list goes on and on with Iraq and Georgia. As a statesman he will leave the same disastrous legacy as Olmert and Shimon Peres.
10. .......
sarah ,   jerusalem   (12.06.08)
when god created the man he knew what he was doing .but we are not gods .when a carpenter made a couberd at least he expected what he is doing . when a teacher do his work at least he expected some result .. and so on about humans / but this presedent expected the opposit of his doing he failed the way the result is theopposit to israil and the palastinians to iraqu and the whole world and the most dramatic to americans who elected him .. not the world ...
11. NO SH.T! TWO countries for two people?
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (12.06.08)
Wasn't that the ORIGINAL idea 60 years ago, when it was rejected by ALL ARAB STATES as they were starting their Wars of Genocide against the newly declared and recognized State of Israel? What happened now? Arethey trying to blame that on Israel instead of their greediness, racism, barbarism and fanaticism? Did they really have to murder tens of thousands of their own and Israelis in futile wars and terror attacks? Isn't now TOO LATE for tens of thousands of families? But what do you expect from people following a religion which values death more than life and has no regard for human rights and peaceful coexistence?
12. Only Iran & Syria Sponsor Terror?
dp   (12.06.08)
check your terror sponsor sheets
13. failed fool President already recognized
Marcel ,   Florida   (12.06.08)
Stealing Jewish land to create another Islamic terrorist state is treacherous and evil and America is paying dearly for your stupidity.
14. Bush's statement
harold ,   liverpool, USA   (12.06.08)
Who cares what this lame duck says. We have to wait what Mr. Obama says after January 20th, 2009.
15. Two-state solution pie-in-the-sky
Realist ,   Israel   (12.06.08)
16. bush should have bombed iran's nuke sites.
debra ,   usa   (12.06.08)
it was a fatal blunder that he didn't. it means israel has to do the job themselves at great peril. for the usa, bombing iran's nuclear sites would have been a mission with low risk and great rewards. it would have been the necessary step to creating a peaceful middle east since iran supports all the terrorism in the region. i wonder if we will ever know why bush failed to act against iran.
17. 2 states indeed:Israel and Jordan
trumpeldor ,   eurabia   (12.06.08)
18. democratic palestine
Kamal ,   Cleveland   (12.06.08)
they held democratic elections and Hamas WON . the corruption in the PA is out of control ..and now MR Abbas is getting ready to extend for himself another term . too much for democracy MR Bush . the last polls in the west bank if elections are held today ..Hamas will win in a land slide .. as for the 2 states solution that he keeps talking about ..it is been over long time ago ..
19. Funny
chaim ,   Israel   (12.06.08)
One headline show Bush saying about a two state, and the sub headline below saying "9 rockets fired into the south." 2 states? Yeah right.
20. Someone explain to him there is no Palastine!
Freejay ,   ISrael   (12.06.08)
21. Show me at least one photo of Arabs protesting against Hamas
(12.06.08)

22. Bush's two states: Jewish American settlers & Arab residents
observer   (12.06.08)

23. George Bush
Lawrence tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.06.08)
Georgie Georgie pudding and pie,kissed the girls and made them cry,and when the boys came out to play,he kissed them too...he was peculiar that way...( hope they don't send me to Guantanamo for that joke).
24. A State In The Hand
Lawrence tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.06.08)
Is worth two in the BUSH...
25. Observer , a big difference
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (12.06.08)
Hamas [ elected , and "governing ] sponsored terrorists bombs Israel with their rockets , and all of the Gazans are full of joy The Israeli one did it on his OWN , NO elected governement sponsored him , and Israelis were NOT rejoycing .
26. Contradiction !
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (12.06.08)
Bush supported the erection of the protection fence . Fine . On the other side he says that Abbas is peacefull . So why need for this fence ?
27. US will take long time to recover from Bush's 8 years
Rosi ,   USA   (12.06.08)
He is ending his 8 years with same crap he strated with.
28. White House US "The land of make believe
DT ,   TA Isr   (12.06.08)
"Cuckoo land "again for Bush and Co. There will never be a two state solution unless there is no Israel and then that will be a "One state solution " but that won't happen. So "Walter Mitty" Bush move on ! Enter "Walter Mitty Mark 2" Obama if that is part of his plan.
29. I guess hajj bush will be the new jimmy carter
jason white ,   afula,israel   (12.06.08)
There will be no palestinian state, unless he wants to give the Texas. And their capitol can be crawford. Or perhaps bush wants to be the simple simon peres? he too dreams the dreams of the senile.
30. #27 It will take just about as long as it will take you to
recover from YOUR ,   crappy spelling!   (12.06.08)
