10 Talkbacks for this article
1. Settlements.
Ron B. ,   Lod   (09.22.09)
Settlement on the land, “Hityashvut”, has been the backbone of the Zionist endeavor since the first colonies were begun over 120 years ago. In the time of the British, it was especially necessary to create “facts on the ground” in places where the British discouraged settlement, in order to ensure that these locations would remain part of the state of Israel. Today however, the government is us. Settlers who create illegal “facts on the ground” in Judea and Samaria help our own government and our own IDF – us. It is constructive to assist the Israeli government and the IDF with establishing settlements in places that have a large and hostile Arab population. Facts, arguments and reasoning based on moral and historical rights are never obsolete and are still valid today. As to our historical rights : http://xrl.us/bj5ng

7. #3
eyal ,   usa   (09.22.09)
the only thing illegal is you. Israel should also take part of Lebanon (up to the Litany River) and the Palestinians send to Jordan or Iraq. It's in the Bible, so start reading. It belongs to Israel. Lebanon is occupying part of Israel.
8. to #2 again , read this to get some knowledge
frad   (09.22.09)
A new WorldPublicOpinion.org poll finds that three-quarters of Americans think that Israel should not build settlements in the Palestinian territories. This is up 23 points from when this question was last asked in 2002. to read more http://www.worldpublicopinion.org/pipa/articles/brunitedstatescanadara/604.php?lb=brusc&pnt=604&nid=&id=
9. The word settlement as used to describe Israeli lawful occupation is 100% wrong
Prince Royal ,   Niger Delta, Nigeria   (09.22.09)
Israel is the world's darling nation, with the best moral army and resilient law abiding people as pertaining to the original inhabitant of God's promised land. Dont give it up for anything. We love you. *what do these talkbackers call world's opinion against israel, is it not the evil voice of 53 Islamic nations who hate israel with evil passion minus their biased view and call the result. Guess the result, Israel the most darling nation on earth with the most innovative and hard working people "the Jews".
10. Obamas a talker but Bibi is a streetwise seasoned politician
zionist forever   (09.23.09)
Who already knows more about Middle East politics than Obama could hope to learn in a lifetime. Providing Bibi doesn't cave into pressure then he can out take on Obama and win because he understands both Israeli & American politics.
