1. don't let france mediate, look what they
ghostq   (11.12.09)
did in Lebanon, *~*
2. GOOD IDEA LET'S GIVE IT ALL AWAY
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
I am tired of living in a country 40 miles wide,.too huge and too big to clean.Far more practical and comfortable to have millions of Jews living in a place 9 miles wide.These Israeli leaders prove the old adage : One can take the Jews out of the Ghetto but you cannot take the Ghetto out of the Jews.
3. and let's give the country away
johanna ,   tsfat   (11.12.09)
with green shield stamps, pizza slice by pizza slice, until there is only the tel aviv bubble.
4. Yes Bibi, just expel Jews from the Golan & bring G-d's wrath
Shalom   (11.12.09)
once again upon you. What's wrong with you politicians? Haven't you noticed what G-d did to the Jews in Sderot and those living in the south and the severe punishment Prime Minister Ariel Sharon received? If you would have had the Jews who were expelled from Gaza resettle Gaza or at least compensated them for your cruel expulsion, Sharon wouldn't have had to suffer for so many years. Are you politicians blind? Or just plain stupid and heartless?
5. LAND IS A BURDEN,WHO NEEDS IT?
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED LALALAND   (11.12.09)
Possessing land is a pain in the neck.Who needs the burden? who needs the responsibilities?Sovereignty ,Land and Jews do not mix.Oh how I long for those idyllic summers and halcyon days in the Warsaw Ghetto..
6. Security and water key for any deal but land hard to give up
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (11.12.09)
This could help with growing Hezbollah problem and weaken Iranian influence but giving up land could cause internal problems.
7.  Mr. Kouchnere, when will France return the occupied ...
Ron B. ,   Lod   (11.12.09)
Mr. Kouchnere, when will France return the occupied Alsace and Lotharingia to Germany ? 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.

8. MOLIERE,THE FRENCH ANTISEMITE
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
Was quoted as saying : " If the Jews ever get a country of their own they will only end up selling it.'" Nu? tell me he was wrong.
9. I HAVE AN EVEN BETTER IDEA
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
KEEP THE LAND (GOLAN ) AND GIVE AWAY PERES AND NETANYAHU ..THREE CHEERS HOORAY (mind you,who would want those worthless creatures?)
10. "IF JEWS EVER GET THEIR OWN
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
COUNTRY THEY WILL END UP SELLING IT." So said literary genius Moliere.
11. Israel should keep only Tel Aviv
Eric A ,   Israel   (11.12.09)
After all, the Jews are used to being in Ghettos, so why not earning time?Instead of giving up everything in a lenghty process which will take 10 years, don't cheat the public dear Israeli Politicians! You received your enveloppes from the US and EU, to give all our land to our peaceful and loving neighbours. I hope when there is only Tel Aviv left, as a gesture of good will and generosity, and to show the World the Jews are not cruel, we will accept millions palestinian refugees in it, poor souls they will not have enough place otherwise! Israeli politicians should all go to see psychiatrist! And you know what? Israel will be more and more hated and despised for its weakness and madness!
12. Our leaders cant wait for more rockets
Lioness ,   Israel   (11.12.09)
to be fired at Israeli towns and cities. Any land given away to a bunch of low life slime that want to annihilate Jews will just bring terrible trouble. If G-d forbid the Golan went to the syrians we would be back to rockets and mortars being fired at all the northern communities. If G-d forbid we left Judea and Samaria, our very heartland, then rockets would be fired at all of central Israel and beyond. Surely we need leaders with brains not empty vessels that make to much noise.
13. #3 ANY GIVEAWAY DEAL IS A GOOD
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
Deal,as long as Israel gets to keep Sheinkin street in Tel-aviv.We can even let the muslims enjoy the Temple Mount and desecrate it as long as the coffee houses on Shenkin street are safe.But do not worry Johanna,these are just rumors and lies we are hearing.Lies from our leaders and their leaders and endless BS.
14. KEEP THE GOLAN ,GIVE AWAY
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
Shenkin street.We have no use for Shenkin,it is only full of gays and strays.
15. PM's office denied this and al arabiya is not credible
jeff ,   tel aviv   (11.12.09)
But that doesn't stop the anti bibi people from bashing him. The same people who kicked him out in 1999 and we got a decade of destruction from sharon and kadima.
16. Out of context
Marcelo ,   Frankfurt / Eurabia   (11.12.09)
As arabs are used to lie to everyone and everywhere, they probably took the phrase out of scope. The PM migh have said: "if sysria thinks that we will say -We have accepted the principle of withdrawing from the Golan; let's discuss the details- they are completelly mistaken"...so, arabs tooks what they wanted and re-invented the history....as always...
17. #15 TRUE JEFF,LOTS OF LIES
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
And dis-information.
18. DEAR MESSRS. OBAMA,SARKOZY,
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
BROWN and others. Thank you for your kind offer to emasculate and diminish our already "vertically-challenged' country.The answer to your kind offer is : (suspense is killing me ) NO .If you have trouble absorbing this response WHICH WORD DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? If the Syrians want the Golan they can fight us for it .
19. I hope this isn't true
Mahinjun   (11.12.09)
the loss of the Golan would spell the end of Israel, expectations must be managed properly up front: read my Jewish lips: no Golan, not now, not ever.
20. in theory, yes; in reality, heck NO
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (11.12.09)
if syria was a peace-loving, terror-abhorring country that is seen nowhere in the middle east, sure. why not? but since syria is a basket case, terror-loving dictatorship that is rotten to the core, nobody in their right mind would do such a thing. bibi is only doing this because talks with the palestinains are dead. and he's got nothing to lose because the syrians won't agree to anything.
21. NO NO NO ,BIBI SAID HE WAS WILLING
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (11.12.09)
To " SEED " the Golan not Cede it.People are twisting words again.He meant to seed it meaning to plant there.
22. Bibi's office denied this please take this false report down
jason ,   jerusalem   (11.12.09)
I don't understand why you are leaving this false report up there from a source that isn't credible in al arabiya. Is the goal to hurt bibi politically based on false reports.
23. Bibi and his government better have
jason white ,   afula,israel   (11.12.09)
their bags packed. They go to syria first. syria will get the Golan when it snows in hell or the french grow balls. Which ever comes first.
24. Sarkozy Netanyahu are they the power RIGHT ???
M. S. ,   mpls america   (11.12.09)
I realize in some countrys the people at the top are absolute rulers where as in other countrys they must listen to follow a wealthy rich class group France Israel leaders do no not have the power alone themselfs to return the Golen Heights if the money people are against it the G H is a valuable piece of ground more than the Sinai Gaza I doubt the Israeli wealthy rich people would seriously part with it even to satisy Assad Syria after W W II J*wish people learned the world can may not be trusted to care about the J*wish people I learn this more every day in my own daily experiences RIGHT ??? Thank You... M. S.
25. PM and Golan - unlikely
DT ,   TA Israel   (11.12.09)
Less worrying as it was in and Arab newspaper which I would not believe
26. 21#
shuli ,   uk surrey   (11.12.09)
lawrence you made me lough,nearly chocked on my crampet.
27. Golan is vital to Israel's existence
Brod ,   USA   (11.12.09)
The 'peace' of Syria is nothing but a deception or Taqiyya to fool and trap Israel. Golan is vital to Israel's existence. Giving it away to the wolves will only see it being dominated by Iran's fanatics and their missiles. If this report is true, Netanyahu is making a grave mistake. The people of Israel must not be led into the slaughter place by fools. Sarkozy will not be there forever. Experts project that in two decades France will be an Islamist country due to its large Islamist population that is exploding exponentially. Netanyahu should read Wafa Sultan's book, "A God Who Hates," to know the heart, mind and soul of the Syrian Islamist-Jihadists. Wafa knows best as she comes from Syria. From babyhood, the Syrian people have been brainwashed to hate Israel and Jews. Peace with the beast can never happen. It will only usher a worst scenario for Israel when Islamist-Jihadist missiles on the Golan will be aimed at the heartland of Israel. Israel must not be fooled into the peace crap of Syria which will threaten the very existence of Israel. It will mean the beginning of the end for Israel.
28. Syrians will have to do : Keep "talking" peace
Moshe ,   Eire   (11.12.09)
With the Air-Force Israel currently has, Golan as a strategic point is moot. Water is what makes those Heights valuable and i don`t think Israel will be giving much of that up, whichever flag flies up there. Water .....the new oil.
29. Well done: a brave decision by bibi
John ,   Jerusalem   (11.12.09)
Well done, bibi. A brave decision. Maybe he is someone after all that will be able to take the tough road: withdraw from Golan and much of the West Bank and share Jerusalem. We should applaud his courage and urge him to continue on this path which is the best guarantee of Israel's peace and security in the long run.
30. Appeasing ones enemies always works
Marcel ,   Florida   (11.12.09)
Appeasing and rewarding a determined enemy always works. Yes it does ,it always works in favor of the enemy against the weak and retreating appeaser. Israel has a penchant for feeding the monster instead of killing it.
