1. What's a Meretz Party??? LOL!

2. Bibi is not the government nor is Yossi
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (11.18.09)
Sorry to say this but this is a democracy and we do have one man rule here. As for the collaspe of the PNA who the hell cares?
3. Jaffa
Raphie ,   USA   (11.18.09)
What is the French ambasador doing in occupied Jaffa???
4. Beilin awarded the Legion of Honor? For what?
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (11.18.09)
Besides being an "intellectual" and protege of Shimon Peres, exactly what has Beilin accomplished to merit such an honor. Yes, he - with Peres - were the driving forces behind Oslo. But that's hardly something a sane person should be proud of.
5. Beilin was the one who went behind Rabins back and met with
Beilin = Enemy   (11.18.09)
Arafat!
6. What would the Palestinians say "yes" to?
martin ,   tel aviv   (11.18.09)
Beilin left the political stage, humiliated, and should now avoid statements that simply underline why he was forced out. Martin
7. The collapse of the PA will effect us
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (11.19.09)
as it will leave a vacuum which Hamas may fill. Even if this does not occur, with a collapse, anarchy occurs. In either case, Israeli citizens can be expected to be attacked. It won't be comfortable for us.
8. beilin's comm ents
alexi   (11.19.09)
Who wants to hear from beilin anymore? Not me. He had his chance in oslo, camp david, taba and so far over 1000 isreaelis are dead and 10,000 amimed. Thank yoiu beilin. Your diplomacy was weak, you appeared like th e pathetic jewish caricature begging the world with a tin cup. Adversaries spat on israel and fireed rockets, mortars and suicide bombing. Your protege olmert outdid you and israel and sderotis suffered 12,000 missiles. You make me sick. You have done israel harm. Take your rabdo geneva proposals and discuss them with olmert while he is in jail. Tell yourself how good you were so you can feel happy. Don't think about the thousands of israelis who died and were injured because of your proposals that yoiu foisted on peres rabin and olmert.
9. So the Jews destroy the peace process if they agree to
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (11.19.09)
bargain in good faith? Amazing BS. Let the PA collapse, something as equally useless will take it's place.
10. Robert Haymond #7 you mean like ...
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (11.19.09)
what has happened under Fatah? We can put the roadblocks back up and stop them as we have been doing.
11. Arab "I-make-up-history-Fallacy-inians" say yes to death of
Jae ,   Lynn US   (11.19.09)
Jews, of Israel. Those that would defend Israel as Jewish homeland and home of non Jews loyal to this, stay & be citizens. The rest get financial compensation to immigrate elsewhere
12. Undoing Oslo will be the greatest contribution to ME Peace
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (11.19.09)
it will remove the Arb enemy and the Arb army from the heart of Israel and eliminate the biggest cause of instability in the region
13. ONE STATE FOR ALL
AG ,   USA   (11.19.09)
Soon, the Pals will call for equal rights as the Israelis. The right to vote, and be represented in the Kenaset. Then they can change the country name to United Israel Palestine States. If Israel refuses, then they are not sevalized like they call them selfes. The Palestinians need to wake up and call for one state tomorrow, insted of dreaming of their own.....
14. Let beilin crawl back under his rock
arthur ,   jersey city NJ USA   (11.19.09)
beilin did much to harm Israel. He worked behind Rabins back and brought the disaster if Oslo. He should stay in norway at peres center and enjoy the money he gets from Israels enemies.
15. Temp freeze when the building continues? smoke and mirrors?
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (11.19.09)
I love the way Israeli politicians say one thing while meaning something totally different. Israel can build for years with the currently issued permits and IDF unlikely to stop illegal Jewish building since the outposts are still there after promising for years to remove them. If Israel wanted to peace deal then it could stop building for afew months but as long a building continues the talks can go on for decades.
16. #7 Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa.......
Eliyahu ,   Yrushalayim   (11.19.09)
17. #3. Hey Raphie, occupied Jaffa is occupied by Arabic people
derwent   (11.19.09)
living in relative harmony compared to Arabs the world over. Fool.
18. Shame on Beilin
Michel ,   Jerusalem   (11.19.09)
A real politician will not criticize his own country when visiting a foreign country or attending a foreign residence party. These leftists have no dignity and ignore any patriotism
19. The Land of Israel is exclusively the land of the Jews.
Ron B. ,   Lod   (11.19.09)
The Land of Israel belongs exclusively to the people of Israel. The Jews have the right to build and live freely in their country. Agreements as a result of pressure is not valid and will not change historical truth and International Legitimacy (The San Remo agreements). Mistakes done in the past by Israeli government(s) should not be respected and should be put right immediately. Settlements in Judea, Samaria (i.e., the West Bank), Gaza and the whole of Jerusalem are legal. We should return to the original legitimity as described at : http://xrl.us/bjch4
20. and I care because ... why????
ben Ish   (11.19.09)
Know when to sit down and be quiet, Yossi.
21. Why place expectations upon Israel but none on the Arabs?
Roger ,   Paris, France   (11.19.09)
Why don't the Arabs recognize Israel's right to exist as the national home of the Jewish people? This, after all, is the real issue in this conflict, isn't it? I don't think Israel should make any move until the Palestinians agree that Israel the Jewish people's national home and unless they agree that any peace agreement ever reached with them will be the end of the conflict.
