1. ASSAD
BEN ,   SINGAPORE   (05.23.09)
TAKE YOUR TURKEY - SYRIA ENGINEERD TALK AND GET LOST- WE ISRAELIS HAVE NO OBLIGATIONs TO SIGN WITH SYRIA ! WE DONT HAVE INTENTION TO WASTE TIME WITH SYRIA OR TURKEY or USA ! WE ISRAELIS ARE MATURED ENOUGH TO MAKE OUR OWN DECISION !
2. This guy seems unable to live without Israel ...
Trumpeldor ,   eurabyia   (05.23.09)
3. Ah, Syria
Sarah ,   New York City, USA   (05.23.09)
Run by a lousy ophthalmologist. Do you really, really think anyone will miss you once you're gone? Think again.
4. palestinian resistance?!
david ,   tel aviv   (05.23.09)
well mr assad, then let me just say one word: "HAMA" !!!
5. Syria has used the Golan three times in order to attack...
Amihai ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (05.23.09)
...Israel and annihilate it, and three times its forces were either stopped or repelled from it. On what basis should Syria now expect to have the Golan back? Syria has had its chance to accept Israel's right to exist, the latter being a member state of the UN that Syria attempted to wipe off the face of earth. It has not accepted resolution 181 of the UNGA, and refused to accept 242 of the Security Council. If Syria wants peace, it will get peace in return for a peaceful coexistence with Israel, as is.
6. funny!
Ilana   (05.23.09)
Does anyone find this cynically and hysterically funny? 1. Obviously if the arab nations surrounding tiny weeny Israel consider us an enemy and a threat then we are an obstacle to peace-they are at war with us!!! 2. If we don't give up our land, and as you can see by the honesty of the talkbackers here like noor or makhmood, the leaders of the arabs actually lie when they talk about 67 borders or whatever, because the truth comes out in the spew of these talkbackers-they want us out ("back to Europe" ect-totally out) So if we are here, there willbe no peace, therefore, we are an obstacle to peace!!! Hysterically dumb and silly spill of Assad's mouth (ok, what can you expect, if they had any brains....)
7. Islam is an obstacle to peace
Johnny ,   Stockholm Sweden   (05.23.09)
All over the world.

9. And Assad's Face Is An Obstacle To
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (05.23.09)
My Fist.The president of Syria is trying to stir up trouble.If he wants to take on Israel he will be cruising for a bruising and clammering for a hammering.
10. To Assad The Eye Doctor(with love)

11. Not an evil geneous...
Ypip ,   Canada   (05.23.09)
I mean he's made it possible for pretty much every western general to support open war on Syria. An evil moron maybe...but no geneous.
12. What Assad Is Really Saying
Not Jewish ,   USA   (05.23.09)
Analyzing Assad words and actions show Assad is really saying that Israel is an obstacle to the extermination of the Jews at the hands of Muslims.
13. Did anyone notice this quote?
David ,   USA, exile   (05.23.09)
"referring to Syrians and Palestinians whose land is occupied by Israel" This is not a quote of Assad. It is a quote of the writer of this article. OK Y-net, who is on your payroll? How can you print an article written by an enemy of Israel? Why didn't you include the name of the writer of this article? This isn't news! This is propaganda written by the enemies of Israel and an Israel news agency publishes it. O vey! Who can we trust?
14. YNETNEWS Article
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (05.23.09)
YNETNEWS.COM Ali Waked 04.17.09 "We support Hizbullah because it fights Israel, and our relations with Iran are strategic," Syrian President Bashar Assad was quoted as saying by the Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3702659,00.html
15. Assad is a war criminal.
Ari   (05.23.09)
Assad is a war criminal, just like his father (remember hama??). He is in bed with Nasrallah and is a main component of the Iran-Syria-Hezbollah terror axis. He and all the members of his terrorist regime should be arrested, charged with murder, tried and convicted for war crimes for the indiscriminate bombing of northern Israel by hezbollah during the '06 war. Assad and his men directly participated in these war crimes but authorizing the passage of the rockets from Iran to Hezbollah. How else did Hezbollah have the Iranian Zilzal rockets?? A: Because Iran passed it to them via Assad. Additionally, Assad should also be tried and convicted for the assasination of Rafik Hariri in Lebanon. In summary, Assad and the men in his regime are war criminals who should be brought to justice, not negotiated with...
16. Why do you listen to him?
The enlightened ,   The Land of Goo   (05.23.09)
He thinks israel "occupying" land and killing children. *laugh* At least israel is democracy. Please dismiss yourself from your job and let the syrian people a good leader.
17. For Doge Assad
The enlightened ,   The land of goo   (05.23.09)
The israelis have made peace with Egypt and Jordan for land. The problme is you, not israel, and plz stop repressing the syrian people. They deserve better.
18. Syria attempted to annihilate Israel several times and still
Bernard ,   Bern, Switzerland   (05.23.09)
it refuses to recognize its right to exist and to accept its citizens' choice of being the nation-state of the Jewish people. I wonder why...?? Time the Syrian paid for that which they initiated and accepted reality the way it is instead of joining one more time a coalition of people eager to inflict pain on Israeli civilians and to bring about the elimination of tiny Israel.
19. Yes we are an obstacle to Arab 'Peace'
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (05.23.09)
By staying alive, we are a roadblock to the Arabs and their attempt to control the world. Guess what stupid we will be here long after you're gone and forgotten.
20. assad, spineless coward!
oded   (05.23.09)
let's see him rising up to saadat's stature and offer to come to jeruslaem, and speak face to face with bibi...if he does that and comes back empty handed , i'll agree with him.. but until he grows up he is nothing but a loser!
21. why even print this propaganda?
freejay333 ,   Israel   (05.23.09)
22. peace lovers
tiki ,   belgium   (05.23.09)
Peace loving Syria should continue with the proces, we will stay with the Golan.
23. USA agrees with him ISRAEL is war mongering
(05.23.09)
24. Many Islamic blind self-perception is the problem?
Paul ,   Jersualem, Israel   (05.23.09)
Perhaps the demands of an undeserving, defeated, and shamed Arab population is the problem. What else would one expect from a primitive Jihadist dictator who inherited an aggressive hatred for Jews, and love for deception and violence.
25. "Occupied Lands"
Ron ,   L.A., USA   (05.23.09)
Only can losers such as these demand that they get land back that they lost during several wars. If you want peace with Israel, then sign a peace treaty for peace's sake, not to gain anything else. Golan is now Israeli territory not syrian. the same with W. Bank and Gaza. So stop bullying us around.
26. Better We Should Keep The Golan...
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (05.23.09)
then to have "peace" with Syria.
27. My Israeli friends.... This is unbelievable
Someone ,   Middle East   (05.23.09)
Do you know who is Bashar Assad? Bashar Alassad is the son of Hafez Alassad .... The lousy Minister of Defense during the 6-days war (1967) The one who could not stand 27 hours against the IDF! The one who could not face Israel and perfered to rebel aginst his country and make a coup detar ... and then in 1973 he screwed up - as expected - that the IDF almost went through Damascus! That trauma caused him a lot of greif that he turned up his back aginst Israel and went after Muslim Brotherhood and Christian Militias in Lebanon. That suited him much better. Now why do you care about a loser and son of a loser ... Someone who was never meant to be a president but an ophthalmologist... Considering he is the third amongst his brothers ... The first died in a mesterious "car accident" and the other has some mental disorder; no wonder Syria can't go after Israel.
28. Bashar Assad
Malone ,   Hfx   (05.24.09)
Mr. Assad appears to be the product of several generations of in breeding,not really relevant to anything,just a bad joke.
29. Assad is repeating the crapola of his losing predecessors
Samuel Prime ,   Canada   (05.24.09)
Same old crap was thrown around when Nasser and Assad senior and King Hussein threatened to destroy Israel in wars past, and lost with humiliation. These people don't learn, they repeat the same stupidity over and over, never able to move forward. Rotten eggs.
30. The demand of Assad to receive the Golan is the proof it ...
Dave Ronen ,   Haifa   (05.24.09)
The demand of Assad to receive the Golan is the proof it is not peace that Syria wants. Israel and Syria have never had diplomatic relations, and have been in a state of war ever since 1948. In 1967, Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria, which had used the area for years to pound Israeli towns below with deadly rockets. These attacks killed 140 Israelis, wounded many more, and inflicted heavy property damage. Since 1967, Syria has always demanded the full return of the Golan as a precondition for “peace”. Nowadays, the Golan is an integrated region of Israel More at : http://xrl.us/bmfrf
