10 Talkbacks for this article
1. Conflict of Interest
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.04.09)
Former President Clinton had no business traveling to a country with which the United States does not have diplomatic relations UNLESS he was traveling on semi-official business. He is, after all, married to the sitting Secretary of State and the appearance of impropriety is significant. I am certain that his trip was made at the behest of President Obama. Right on track, isn't he, our stupid president, reaching out to Iran, Syria and now North Korea. Impeachment is looking better and better as the only way to stop the Obama geopolitical madness. Has he forgotten that North Korea test-fired in the direction of the United States some missiles a few months back? And that he has ICBMs pointed at the United States? I don't know what Obama's ultimate agenda is, but I strongly suspect that it is not shared by very many Americans.
2. Obama is a red comunist, socialist idiot
Salvador ,   USA   (08.04.09)
3. Ultimate agenda
Wilson ,   Italy   (08.04.09)
Ultimate agenda is appeasement-to bring to a state of peace, quiet, ease, calm, or contentment; pacify; soothe.The cowboy era is over,now its all about diplomacy,The best move ever
4. After they dissed Hillary for how she dressed & communicated
Obama decided 2 send ,   the other idiot!!!!   (08.04.09)
5. Clinton would never have gone if the hostages were men.
Eytan ,   Kokav Ya'akov   (08.04.09)
True to form the Clintonian need for media exposure, as well as other types of exposure in female company cannot be controlled. He sullied the office of president of the USA numerous times and also conjured up the last agreement with N. Korea that they broke. Clearly the voting majority in the US that voted in Carter, Clinton and now Obama are mentally ill.
6. #3 we all know how appeasement ended in 1938
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (08.04.09)
and then Texas cowboy rangers had to restore Peace to the world
7. I seldom agree with Bill Clinton
Galut ,   Selah   (08.04.09)
but I wish him well on this mission...
8. Picture on the top left
Naor ,   USA   (08.04.09)
Does Ynet purposefully go out of it's way to get the oddest looking pictures of politicians? Seldom have I seen a decent looking picture of any politician, they all have goofy faced expressions on their faces.
9. What's the problem???
Ron ,   L.A., U.S.A.   (08.04.09)
Let me state first, that I am NOT, nor have I ever been, a Clinton fan. I didn't like him back then and I don't really care for him now. However, whatever your politics are, he managed to get the two hostages back. I doubt that would have worked out the same way had it been someone else. Some how, Clinton "sullied" the White House (which I think he did. He should have just owned up to his falandering), but no one says anything about our President (on rape charges). As for Obama's "Ultimate Agenda". He's not some great Satan. If you think that, then you're in good company with Al-Qaeda. His approach to problems may be different, but he's not doing anything drastically different from what Bush did. Look at the economic and miltiary points and he's doing the same thing. I don't care for his politics, but then again, I don't care for anybody else's politics either. Just be honest with yourselves. PLEASE!!!
10. If this gets the reporters back and restarts talks, its good
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, USA   (08.05.09)
There was few options, do nothing, war or talk. The US is in two wars right now and doing nothing was only making matters worse. I think China wanted this last try to reopen talks before it would agree to harder actions.
