1. Excuses wearing thin.
Peter Morris ,   New Zealand   (06.09.09)
You have got at least acknowledge the tenacity of those pulling the so called Israeli agenda. That agenda is to bit by bit grab Palestinian land in whilst weakening neighbouring economies. Now the line being taken is to give the Americans a guilt complex for pressuring Israel on settlements. The line is that by pressuring Israel the Americans are weakining Israel government. Why the Americans even bother responding to such rubbish perhaps shows how naive they are. Then again it wouldn't do to overdo it soon or later they may wise up.
2. Sovereignty under the threat!
Jewish Refugee   (06.09.09)
Why does Israel have to host those that want to dissect Israel in pieces in order for its enemies to have an easier military assault on Israel? Why does Israel have to listen to those that are not listening to Israel on the contrary listening the Israeli’s enemies? When will Israel learn defiance not compliance will save the day in the Middle Eastern neighborhood? For more please visit: http://israelactnow.blogspot.com
3. o-bum-a has CHANGEd thingd, thrown away diplomacy and
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (06.09.09)
replaced it with shouting from a stage. o-bum-a's CHANGE means that he and his people will bark orders at the Jews and suck up to the muslums. Talking to Mitchel is as useful as fishing with no hook on the line.
4. We will not die for the US and they are the liars
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (06.09.09)
I refuse to die for America to promote themselves with the Arabs. The US government is the ones that have been lying all these years. Secretary Clinton is just as big a liar as her husband.
5. I cannot believe Israel's Jews.
Steve   (06.09.09)
This man is a liar, B. Hussein Obama. He will tell the Jews any love story he can conjure. We Jews love lies. Remember when the Nazis told us that we were being re-settled to a much better place? We Jews love to be lied to by Jew-haters. This Muslim president is kow-towing to every dictator and Muslim jihadist regime in the world. Only Israel is he kicking in the gut! Barack Obama says "America's strong bonds with Israel are well known. This bond is unbreakable...." "YES! We Jews love these lies. Yes!" Obama whispers: "These despicable Jews will learn a thing or two!" I read a poll this morning. Israel's Jews believe Obama is on the side of the Palestinians; against Israel. Only Israel's Jews believe Netanyahu should bow to Obama's demands. "Beam me up Scotty!"
6. If not, why all the talk?
Samuel Prime ,   Canada   (06.09.09)
If there is no such attempt by this new US Admin to change the Israeli regime, why is there even talk about it? The current Israeli regime was elected by the Israeli people, and the US Admin needs to respect that---if Obama really believes in 'mutual respect.'
7. Obama: Bravo Bibbi!
DE Tedooru ,   NY   (06.09.09)
Netanyahu's plan to econimically integrate the Palestinians with Israel before discussing politics of two states is a wise move that Obama aplauds. Israel had long imposed economic misey on Palestinans hoping they leave Greater Israel. Even massacre at hands of Kadima didn't budge them. Now integrating them economically will mean Arabs will integrate Israel into Mideast economy to make Israel free of US aid as Bibbi promised to make it.
8. La Clinton ain't no Richlieu
Gideon Reader   (06.09.09)
The very fact that the U.S. feels compelled to answer the challenge; that it was attempting to topple the legally and duly, democratically elected government of PM Netanyahu, is sufficient reason to believe that the charge is correct and true on it's face. The incompetent State Department of the wide hipped and narrow minded Sec. Clinton, led and ordered by the ZerObama White House is just stupid enough to believe that they can and will get away with such borderline criminal patronizing and banana republic intrusion and interference into a sovreign government of another nation. A "soft" coup d'etat is a still a coup d'etat. Failure to seize radio/television stations and airfields and ports does not soften the insulting intrusion and vulgar offense at all. The upside is that given the displayed and showy record of incompetence of the ZerObama administration, they are bound to grossly fail in this endeavor as they have in almost every thing they have entangeled themselves in.
9. Americans are liars and cannot be trusted.
JMK ,   NYC   (06.09.09)
The only place there is true honor is in the military and in some small towns. The people who go to Washington and Wall Street are the sleaziest and nastiest people going.
10. OBAMA IS AMAZING!!
Azri Ben-Uri ,   USA   (06.09.09)
Obama will bring peace to the middle east and solve the financial crisis. He really is a messiah. If only Israel and the Palestinians could elect their own Obama's, then all the problems would be solved.
11. If you believe Obama
Mike ,   Jerusalem   (06.09.09)
I have a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you real cheap

av ,   london.uk   (06.09.09)
USA IS KAPUT AND TRY TO PLEASE THE ARABS TO GET CHEAP MONEY I SAY BALLS TO YOU US GOV
13. Not topple... just undermine, weaken & conquer
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (06.09.09)
14. #8 Gideon Reader.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (06.09.09)
Don't forget the part played by our favorite unscrupulous, unprincipled opportunists here in Israel, namely Tzippi Livni & her co-conspirators in Kadima. This has been their strategy since being defeated. They could care less about Israel's interests as long as their own self-interest is taken care of. To that end, they will conspire with anyone, our enemies included. They even advise Abbas on how to sabotage Netanyahu, you can imagine the ''suggestions'' they have for the US State Dept. And, of course, the Israeli media just eats this up.
15. but, will press everyone to topple him

16.  WE ALL SHOULD BE IN UNITED :IN"GOD WE TRUST"!
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (06.09.09)
17. About rights and legitimacy
Dave Ronen ,   Haifa   (06.09.09)
The “Mandate for Palestine” granted Jews the irrevocable right to settle anywhere in Palestine, the area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, a right unaltered in international law and valid to this day. Jewish settlements in Judea, Samaria (the West Bank), Gaza and the whole of Jerusalem are legal. In fact, when you think about it, the major question is: where should the Palestinian arabs be resettled? that and the need for Israel to stand firm and look out for its own interests for a change.

18. Why is Obama paying so much...
Anon ,   Johanessburg   (06.09.09)
attention to Israel, while the USA is falling apart from a social and an economic point. Obama has secrets that we dare not know. His agenda is one that will distroy Israel and the USA, while at the same time impower Islam and rouge nations like Iran

21. If obama isnt out to topple bibi Hamas love Israel
zionist forever   (06.09.09)
Of course Obama wants to bring Bibi down. He wants to topple Bibi, force an election and quietly behind the scenes help Livni. Already after the last election he had his people trying to push Peres into choosing Livni as PM. Now he has dealt with Bibi seen he won't be a yes man he is more determined than ever to bring him down which is probably why he is demanding some things which he knows are not realistic in the hope it will cause a rift in the coalition and pull it apart. Obama doesn't believe in democracy he believes in yes men and will be happy to ignore the democratic process if it clashes with his wishes.
