31. Amazing, they call for Jews to stop...
Truth Hertz ,   UK   (10.16.09)
'Settling' in their own homeland of Judea and Samaria whilst tolerating the Islamic re-occupation of Spain.
32. Viva España!!
Pedro Goncalvez ,   Madrid Spain   (10.16.09)
Justicia para Gaza. Justice for Gaza.
33. First dismantle the wall
Michel ,   Jerusalem   (10.16.09)
between Ceuta, Mellila and Morocco !! And then recognize the Basks..
34. We disagree on just about every point you make, Noor,
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (10.16.09)
but I do take you seriously although I seriously doubt that you reside in the mideast in spite of yourself signing yourself as residing in "Palestine". So be it. The fact is, Arabs and Sephardic Jews have a similar history in terms sharing important aspects of culture and language. As a result, in spite of ourselves, we are intertwined. These are facts "on the ground" as it were. Now, it appears that you don't reside in the mideast and don't comprehend this connection. If you did, you would realize that at a personal level, without interference from fear and terrorism, there is a basis for communication. If I am wrong and you do, indeed, share the kind of understanding I am referring to, kindly help educate the readership; I implore you. You can even contact me personally by e-mail. My belief about you, however, is that you are distant from the conflict and depend on your perceptions of legalities and other abstract factors for understanding. With respect to YNet, you appear to be involved in our enterprise (talkbacks) in order to propagandize and not to learn. In other words, you are closed. I would be happy if what I surmise about you is wrong. Consider this a challenge. Are you man enough to take it up in a positive way?
35. "Justicia para Gaza. Justice for Gaza", by eliminating Hamas
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (10.16.09)
Gaza could have been a lovely resort place on the lovely sea shore with productive agricultural garden for export. Indeed, the Gazans were given it on a silver platter in 2005, and the entire international community, including Israel, was ready to assist. But the Gazans chose to vote for Hamas and then enabled Hamas to take over the rule of the Strip violently from the Palestinian Authority, only to continue to promote death over life, and the annihilation of Israel over the development of Gaza into a prosperous and just society. So, it is time to do away with Hamas and bring justice to Gaza and its population.
36. The New Spain continues to impress
Nour ,   Palestine   (10.16.09)
However Zapatero as well as the Quarter are in denial about the capacity of the settler junta to initiate a real "peace process". If i were Lieberman, I wouldn't stop settlements. it would alienate me from the same people who put me in power. And such goes the genesis of the 1 state solution (the Palestine solution) from river to sea. The more it's delayed the more elusive peace seams to become. Any real effort of pursuing the 2-state solution now entails a dramatic reversal of settlements and their dismantlement a-la-Gaza. Aril would be gone, definitely. What are the chances of that happening?
37. Spanish PM - Freeze Settlements
Oskar Prager ,   Petach Tikva   (10.16.09)
Before that man pontificates about Israel let us see him give a state to the Basques who have been fighting for their own freedom from Spain.
38. Zapatero is an idiot !!!
madeleine7 ,   Marbella Spain   (10.16.09)
Some of us here in Spain pray for G-D´s continuing blessing and protection for Israel. Zapatero is destroying Spain - he is a "zero" on all counts. Pay him no attention. He ( and the world in general) is totally mis-informed about the situation in Mid-East. Idiots are pro-moslem. They will apy a very heavy price....!!!
39. #36
Marco ,   Spain   (10.16.09)
Nour, I would agree with you. The two state solution is no longer possible with Jewish settlements criss crossing the West Bank and the Arab part of Jerusalem. The only way to revive the two state solution is to dismantle each and every settlement in Jerusalem and the West Bank. Failure to do so will leave the one state solution as the only reasonable option. One state for two people with one man one vote. The right of return of Palesinian refugees should be non negotiable. Any Jew allowed to emigrate to the holly land should be matched with a christian and a muslim too. God bless you Nour. Wish you and your people all the best. You have paid the price for the guilt of the west vis a vis the Jewish people.
