ghostq   (04.23.09)
don't have to do nothing, but you do it's in his hands, logic, can someone help him to find his missing logic.
2. his he ok, Israel don't rull gaza, his
gsea   (04.23.09)
people r Israel don't care how his men run the place as long as his men r not trying to kill Israel civilians or soldiers. he don't want to take the responsibility for the situation he help to create, we know he try to weasel himself from any accusations by blaming Israel(it's well known theory in criminology), and that is how you want to get independence??? where is the responsibily to the gazans or to the situation, makes you wonder if they r ready to rull themselves.
3. If they want to end the occupation why did they trash Gaza?
Eric ,   Tel Aviv   (04.23.09)
If they were looking to prove that they deserved a nation, and could run it why did they take a viable economy and run it into the ground, destroy the existing infrastructure and homes, and turn the area into a combat zone? Their methods contradict their message.
4. Two states 4 two peoples: Israel 4 the Jews, EU 4 the palest
Nietche   (04.23.09)
5. he doesn't want to destroy isreal
(04.23.09)
he wants europe and england who gave life to isreal for the last 60 years to promote peace. how would isreal respond to that
6. Whats important is that he was speaking for English ears
Alan ,   SA   (04.23.09)
If he was speaking in Arabic for Arab ears -you would have heard something else.
7. Occupation?
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (04.23.09)
What Khaled Mashaal means (but does not explicitly say): he considers Israel as genuine Palestine territory and he claims it for his people (as stated in the Hamas charta).
8. All eurabian countries are being blackmailed by the arabs
mic ,   Isreal   (04.23.09)
It's the classic blackmaile protection racket. According to the ex prime minister of Italy the arabs said, If you help us to destroy Israel we will not commit terrorism against you. All europe does this for 40 years. That's why the eurabians are always going on about this Phonistinian crap. Otherwise nobody would care... Though when they are done with the Saturday people they will start in on the Sunday people. Anyway he who laughs best laughs last... Have a nice day, mic
9. "The MPs reportedly had trouble hearing the HAMAS leader
Shaul ,   Sheboygan   (04.23.09)
due to technical problems with the broadcast." I say there, you Right Honorable Gentlemen, even if you had been in the same room as Mashaal, it STILL would have sounded like utter nonsense. Cheers!
10. No, Europe is not a player
NilsG ,   Helsingborg, Sweden   (04.23.09)
This person knows very well what he needs to do to start talking peace with Israel - three simple things, right? European efforts to broker peace in the Middle East may have been well meant but useless. In so far as any European country had any credibility whatsoever, I fear it was used up a long time ago. My suspicion is that he will want us to send more money to his democratically corrupt regime. Just my 50 cents, you know.
11. That's a laugh isn't it...
Talula ,   Israel   (04.23.09)
His idea of peace is to annihilate Israel. This loathsome Loser is a cold blooded murderer who’s talking peace?
12. When Britain wanted peace with the IRA after 40 years
RJBH ,   Methil   (04.23.09)
of War ... They started Talking to them.... and now there is peace... Perhaps not Perfect Peace ... but at least... better than anything that went before... Of course Britain should talk to the legitimate representatives of Palestinians People... and so should anyone who is interested in Peace... Israel, the Zionist state has No Interest in Peace that give Palestinians any thing more than they now have.
13. ANOTHER PEACE LIKE GAZA?
Petra ,   United States   (04.23.09)
I THINK I'D PASS. LET THIS LOSER RANT AND JOIN THE EU. TOGETHER THEY CAN SINK AND DROWN.
14. Palestinian 2 state peace garbage
Sam ,   Canada   (04.23.09)
Mashaal shows again that the Palestinian 2 state offer is just a propaganda gimmick meant to impress the West and other countries who see a 2 state solution as the only option. The 2 state solution option is accompanied by a right of return demand which negates a 2 state solution. One can always hope that the Palestinians will someday relent on the issue but the "peace process" is nothing more than a hope. The Palestinians have no serious proposal. They use the 2 state issue as nothing more than a tool to try and force Israeli withdrawals from impressionable Western diplomats and naive Jews dreaming about peace.
15. to #12 the british also created
ghostq   (04.23.09)
gaza, they rank the palestinian during the mandat as area C, go find out what C means, and guess who drove out the arabs from Jaffa, yep you guessed it right, the british, you just blam Israel for the situation the brits left behind.
16. PALESTINIANS SHOULD PROMOTE PEACE FIRST
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (04.23.09)
17. Why did the British give huge land to the Hashemite Family
Maria ,   MD   (04.23.09)
But anyway,in end times,Jewish huge stolen land will go back to them to make room for the 10 Lost Tribes of Israel.In fact, Jordan really belongs to the Edomites[the modern Palestinians] and the Hashemites belong to the Arabian Peninsula.
18. Prisoner exchange
Serge ,   Antwerp, Belgium   (04.23.09)
After 3 years of indirect negiociations, not even a prisoner exchange for Gilad Shalit is possible. Forget about peace negociations with Hamas. If Hamas wants to be a partner, they know the conditions set by the international community.
