RAMALLAH ,   ramallah   (01.20.09)
we will see yhow the new start will be . respect and mutual is the key . hey Israel follow the steps of Obama. fresh stsrt and leave the occupied land.
2. Sacrifice israel to the Moslems
Marcel ,   Florida   (01.20.09)
The agenda of carving up Israel piecemeal as a sacrifice to appease the Islamic world moves forward with the latest head of the Oligarchy. Appeasment of the cult of hate and intolerance is the way forward which everyone has taken Will israel snap out of it's deep fog and jump off the fake peace train before it reaches it's final destination ?
3. to 1 yes you can
smith   (01.20.09)

4. Inaugeration
Marilyn ,   USA   (01.20.09)
I watched part of his speech and well how do I say this, it was like my war censors were going off. I do not know if this was to try to prepare us for more or what. This I do not want. Also I did not feel that Christianity was there enough. So while in general while it was well spoken, I was wishing own beliefs represented more.
5. Yeah. There will be a change all right toward Islam since
Rivkah   (01.20.09)
the ELS Bible codes at www.arkcode.com found codes in the Obama matrix that show "President Obama" intersecting with "Barak Muslim" and "Traitor" and "The Lord will bring a nation against you from afar, from the ends of the earth." All America will suffer for forgetting God and electing a Muslim.
6. If he lasts four years, he will be followed
jason white ,   afula,israel   (01.20.09)
by an American president that represents the true values of America and will lead the world in the war against the islamofascists. We will see an American president who will destroy the madrasses of hate, not study in them like osama did. There will be a president who did not receive illegal overseas funding and illegal donations in the states.
7. To Ramallah - so isn't Jordan occupied too?
Gil ,   Tel Aviv   (01.20.09)
After all... its used to be called "Palestine"... you hypocrite.
8. obaama will be no friend to Israel lets find new friends
zionist forever   (01.20.09)
Israel should use this as an excuse to start looking for other allies. We have 1 million Russians lets see if we can use that to help improove Israel / Russia relations at the arabs expense. Israel has reasonable relations with China which if we were willing to stand up to the US could be greatly improoved. India we already have very good relations with both politicly and militarily and they are a growing world economic power. Europe hasn't been an ally for decades and it looks like the US is going to turn on us so maybe its time we did stop treating the US as the only possible country in the world that we want to have as an ally. The more friends you have the more influential you become. Before 1967 the US wanted very little to do with us but Europe were good friends after Israel won the war they turned on us but the US wanted us as an ally but since the end of the cold war and the US doesn't need an ally in a soviet dominated region the arabs have become more useful to them and it will only get worse under Obama.
9. Watch Out Israel
A.C.Guard ,   USA   (01.20.09)
Forget what church Obama attended, that was for political purposes. He is a Muslim.
10. OBAMA THE MUSLIM SPEAKS
Dan ,   USA   (01.20.09)
11. No More wars for israel!
Rami Abu Ghalyion ,   Tulkarem-Palestine   (01.20.09)
Its new start Go a head Obama
12. THE RIGHT WING NUTS ARE ALL POSTING TODAY
David ,   Los Angeles   (01.20.09)
1. Marcel the anti-Semite who just wants was so we convert to Christianity, 2. The "Obama's a Muslim" even though his staff are all Jews crowd 3. Rivka and her krayzee Bible Codes 4. Jason "you're a coward for changing your Jewish name" White. And so the list of room temperature IQ nutjobs goes on...
13. I have some bad news for Pres. Obama.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.20.09)
Mutual respect & mutual interest means reciprocity - not something Islam is particularly noted for. Nothing Obama can possibly do will make much of an impression in the Muslim world - even if he turned the White House into a mosque it would not be enough. Appeasement of totalitarian ideologies cannot bring good results. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
14. Mutual respect ......
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.20.09)
So does this mean Obama will push for religious tolerence in Muslim countries?
15. # 9
jj   (01.20.09)
hey, yeah find new friends! everyone knows that israel doesnt rely on america to secure her existence. you are a fool.
16. #1
Knightarm ,   New York, USA   (01.20.09)
Yes my self-deluding friend. You are still talking of 1967 borders...two generations ago. Do you think there is anyone in Israel, other than the fifth column Arabs, who trusts the 1967 configuration of Israel? Or are you speaking of 1947 Palestine when you speak of "occupied land"? In either case you are delusional. So tell all your friends and family: "The Jews are serious when they shout NEVER AGAIN!" Accept Israel and get on with your lives.
17. Hope he will not be killed like they did to mr. Rabin
(01.20.09)
Those anti-peace people ... you know who i mean .
18. #5,13 Obama said Muslims not Islam
observer   (01.20.09)
but racist Jews can't see the difference because it is not like the difference between Judaism and Zionism.
19. #12 David
Marcel ,   Florida   (01.20.09)
David , I take serious offense to your false accusation and assume that you are a queer who worships long things and rear ends ? Let me know if I've got you figured out ? I'd hate to be wrong.
20. Instead of UNRWA
David ,   USA   (01.20.09)
Save money and give each of the palestinians a million dollars to leave gaza. A lot of countries would love to have millionaires as new citizens. I'd leave my house in a New York second for a million bucks.
21. OBAMA did not even mention ISRAEL when he greeted muslims!
GET REAL ,   USA   (01.20.09)
OBAMA did not have ONE Rabbi give an Invocation! OBAMA said "AMERICA IS THE LAND OF CHRISTIANS, MUSLIMS AND JEWS"! MUSLIMS BEFORE JEWS for the first time in American history! It was the most disgraceful pandering Inauguration speech in American history. The American stock markets dropped sharply afterward. OBAMA FLUBBED his oath of office by the CHIEF JUSTICE!
22. Stop being stupid
Yehuda ,   USA   (01.20.09)
All of you who think USA is turning on Israel are plain stupid. The Bush policies failed for the USA and Israel. We need to have a strong USA and with that comes a stronger Israel. You greatest ally are American Jews, not India, China and Russia. Stop this non sense talk and hopefully the new America can help us realize peace for the Jews in Israel.
23. Another try at destroying freedomn.
Gideon Reader   (01.20.09)
Same old Marxist Crap that has been bounced against free men since the 1917 Russian Revelousion. It did not work then. It will not work now. Bee Ess is Bee Ess. And nada mas. This clown(Obama, or Zero the Wonderful Marxist Brotha") is just the latest incompetent <> scam artiste; the three card monte man with the folding suitcase, to make the effort. His Presidency as failed because of his core beliefs and failed moral incompetence).
24. #11
mark ,   ca   (01.20.09)
You should change your name to abu hmar...:-)))
25. #19 Marcel
Marcel ,   Montreal   (01.20.09)
This is not a dating site, please stop flirting
26. 72% of American Jews voted for this muslim turned Christian!
GET REAL ,   USA   (01.20.09)
27. To #12-David , Los Angeles NASTY POST
GET REAL ,   USA   (01.21.09)
Your post reflects David , Los Angeles to be a pathetic left wing Jew who believes OBAMA is the new Messiah and you take offense to all those who do not worship him by calling them names! Take note of his adoration to muslims, pandering inauguration speech:-------
28. Blood donations to Gaza
Yaakov Sullvan ,   NYC   (01.21.09)
As a proud gay Muslim I donated blood recently for the good couse. Unfortunately they found I am HIV positive ( I already on treatment so it;s no news to me) My husdband on the other hand didn;t have ant difficulty with his donations. Unfortunately UPS refused to deliver our donations. I hope there is a way to deliver it in the future. Please donate blood and lots of blankets to Palestine.
29. He loves his arab bothers, he is a threat to Israel.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (01.21.09)
