1. Treason
Yonit L ,   San Diego CA   (12.20.09)
Ehud Barack's actions are despicable and TREASONOUS. The era of heroes is OVER. Had Ehud Barack and the feckless Bibi been running the country in the 1970's, there would have been no Entebbe. Look at where they are leading us: 1) To a CIVIL WAR. Prosecution of the Jews who honor our Jewish roots, love our land, and who still believe in G-D. If we only believed in G-D, instead of "Peace" agreements like the "settlers" do. We should be so lucky to have real leaders with such patriotism and faith. 2) Instead, we have "Leaders" honestly weighing the release of 1,000 TERRORISTS with Israeli blood on their hands, instead of going in and getting ONE SOLDIER back-wherever he is. (100 hostages were rescued at Entebbe.) 3) IRAN- What is it going to take for these "leaders" to act on Iran? An incoming nuke? I wish Begin, Efi Eitam or even Bibi's brother were Prime Minister . Why are we taking all this aid money from the U.S.? Is that what Obama has paid us for freezing our lives, and giving up our independence and determination to defend ourselves against terrorism? When did we lose our balls? Let me guess, Rabin did it. He used to call the victims of terror, the victims of "Peace". Now, if that wasn't the beginning of shameful "Political Correctness", I don't know what is. Oslo was the beginning of the end. Before it IS the end, we had better WAKE UP and GROW SOME BALLS for the IMMEDIATE challenges we are facing. I agree with Sarah Netanyahu's brother 100%. If Bibi cannot step up and LEAD, he has got to go make room for a real Leader, who can bring us together, and who will BE ON THE OFFENSIVE instead of defensive.
2. Difficult situation
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron Israel   (12.20.09)
From one side we all feel that Israel is our country, our only country, the one we love as much as we love the Land of Israel. From the other side we see that Ehud Barak is fighting his private war against Zionism and that the Likud led government is silently letting him do this. With real pain I arrive to the position that Barak has nothing to do with us, he doesn't believe in the same things we do and he tries to destroy what people who love Israel have been trying to build, this is the moment for definitions! Will Likud, Shas, HaBait HaYehudi and Israel Beiteinu stand with Barak? Will Boogy, Beni Begin, Moshe Feiglin and others stay in the Likud driven to chose between the Land of Israel and Ehud Barak? May HaShem help their souls and pardon them if they do!!!
3. Airforce?
Akiva ,   Occupied West Jerusa   (12.20.09)
Airforce? What are they going to do, bomb the settlements???? O M G
4. For what reason?
Moish ,   Jerusalem   (12.20.09)
The PA has already rejected the Freeze, The USA does not think it is enough, so who are we trying to tochas lek?
5. We are the laughing stock of the world
Bentzy ,   Jerusalem   (12.20.09)
Does of Gvt. think that this will make the goyim love us more?
6. Lessons not learnt
Leah ,   Israel   (12.20.09)
Sharon lay on a hospital bed after removing 9000 Jews from their homes. The heavens dont want him and nor does the earth. Any leader that goes against his people in this way will no doubt be punished for this. Barak is a disaster. He failed in Lebanon, which has allowed Hizbullah to gain control that led to the second Israeli failure in Lebanon. Barak failed in Cast lead which has now allowed Hamas to be stronger than ever. Now Barak feels he might have success against the residents of Judea and The Shomron, he thinks they are weaker than the Arabs, but as usual he has made one big mistake only this time this is the mistake that will break him. G-d will punish him like he punished Sharon. It wont be long either. Psalm 83 explains that when the Moshiach arrives all our enemies will be destroyed and that includes those amongst us that are against G-ds Torah.
7. #2 Ricardo if you are so sure then
Avi ,   Israel   (12.20.09)
if you are so sure then i presume you would support a public referendum on the idea to keep or withdraw from the occupied west bank? The results of which will be implemented? Fair enough you would agree? Naturally we all know that the public will vote overwhelmingly to withdraw. Secular people are no longer willing to pay not only financially of investing in roads and settlements , but also for the sake of peace. Why should we be doing reserve duty to defend a group of fanatics who hate us? Sorry but the party is over, As far as i am concerned they can build all they like, stay where they are, come the day of Palestinial statehood just hand them a Palesitinian passport and then we shall see who cries !
8. APPROPRIATE COUNTRY???
al mann ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.20.09)
Why did thousands come on aliya? The ideology is gone. It's dead!! Why are we here if only to be shoved around to satisfy someone's political reason for being. Is Israel our country? Will the doubt always exist while manipulated by politicians and Palestinians? At whose expense? Who pays the price of insecurity for citizens? Does the government really care about its citizens, by moving them around from place to place with no security? Does Y-NET care or is it just a robotic system without any feelings or sympathy for many members of this society? Well, that's communication, cold and unsympathetic? Maybe it was a mistake to settle here.
9. #7
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (12.20.09)
In a referendum, Ricardo will win. It is the Leftwing who is against it. Look at history: In 1992, the Right won the popular vote although lost the Knesset vote against Rabin. Rabin won because of his three "Nos": No to PLO, No to Arab state. No to abandoning Golan. Despite Rabin's death, Netanyahu defeated Peres, and that was when Peres promised never to surrender Jerusalem. Barak defeated Netanyahu only after he promised to handle the economy and freeze the diplomatic process. Sharon defeated Mizna due to his Right-wing platform. After Sharon implemented the ethnic cleansing, the Likud almost disappeared. In the last elections, the Right-wing running against ethnic cleansing of Judea and Samaria defeated the Left-wing supporting such ethnic cleansing. I am for such a binding referendum, but are you? How about a referendum about GLBT marriage? Will you stand by its results? And how about a referendum whether GLBT may kiss in public? Will you stand by that?
10. no force if they obey
(12.20.09)
This reminds of a time in history when violence was used only against people who refused orders to board a train.
11. IDF to raize structures in Judea/Samaria
oskar prager ,   Petach Tikva   (12.20.09)
The atmosphere created by Ehud Barak and Vilnai, reminds me of the times just before Rabin was murdered. Barak is inciting the citizens to comit crimes in order to get the IDF in to quell riots by probably shooting to death many of the settlers who are anetheama to Barak. Mark my words - the day will come soon when someone will kill Barak and possibly others and that will be the start of the civil war which ultimately will utterly destroy the state of Israel and the Arabs will be laughing all the way to the bank picking the left overs. After all, it's not the first time in history that the Jews destroyed themselves - just read the books of the prophets ! Thus I advocate stop Nefesh beNefesh bringing in Olim - they will have nowhere to go, no homes and no jobs and only be cannon fodder for Baraks IDF destroyers. As no building is going on even in the heartland of Israel at affordable prices why should any sane person make Aliya ? The time has come for any reasonable thinking person to get out of Israel before disaster of Civil War and Iranian nukes strikes. Oskar Prager, Petach Tikva
12. FAMILIAR HISTORIC SIGNS
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (12.20.09)
This is a classic abuse of power and smacks of all the signs of a Fascist dictatorship. These same tactics were used by the Nazis to clear out Jewish communities to destroy them. These sinister evil minds hope that someone will loose his control and fire at them, so they have a real excuse to finish of the people they hate most. From the beginning I wrote that Bibi was not to be trusted and is a poisoned snake. The secular Zionist enterprise is a dangerous entity, it seems that Naturei Karta is not so far off after all, by stating that Zionism has only brought disaster on the Jewish people. We are exposed to Shabak (Gestapo) tactics all time, they even enter our homes to drag 15 year olds out of their beds in the middle of the night, based on their own fabricated lies. As they curse us so will they be cursed.
13. Wargames to prepare for the new wave of expulsion of the Jew
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (12.20.09)
14. let them stay there
Michael ,   Haifa   (12.20.09)
If the settlers cannot obey the decisions of the sovereign state of Israel, they should take their chances and be allowed to live in the sovereign state of Palestine when it is established in the Occupied Territories.
15. Defense Minister sees Jews as the BIGGEST ENEMIES of Israel
Shalom   (12.20.09)
Consequently, Jewish homes and ONLY JEWISH HOMES, need to be destroyed and ONLY JEWS must be expelled. How is it that one of the least voted for party, namely the Labor party, has this little punk getting so much power? OUT WITH Bark the DESTRUCTION MINISTER dog!!! NOW!!!
16. #12 and NK
eddie ,   london UK   (12.20.09)
Actually, the NK fully support what barak is doing, they simply wish to apply it to all fo Israel, as they do not recognize any part of the State or borders.
17. Unlease the dogs
Paul ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.20.09)
Let them use force. So the Israeli public can see how corrupt the politicians are. They will see how the mechanisms of the IDF and Shabak no long act on behalf of the people. If the turn-coat Bibi does use force, that is the end of Likud and the end of the political system as we know it.
18. :: Human Rights Organization?!
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (12.20.09)
"This is a military trial against the settler population, and it will trample on its most basic human rights," the Human Rights Organization of Judea and Samaria stated. The "Human Rights Organization of Judea and Samaria" is quite possible the only Human Rights Organization in the entire world that focuses exclusively on one tiny group of people (the illegal Israeli settlers). I dare say that there is not one statement/report from this sham organization that relates to the 'basic human rights' of Palestinians or any other group of people outside the illegal settlers.
19. Barak
MC ,   UK   (12.20.09)
First Hesder Yeshivot and now this! Barak will bring about civil war if he continues like this. He is causing incitement among the different stratas of society instead of fostering unity and protecting the rights of the people. What a disgraceful scenario to enforce an building freeze in Yehuda and Samaria, which shouldn't be policy in the first place. To treat citizens like this in order to bring about abortive talks with an enemy who isn't interested anyway is sick and just makes Israel a laughing stock in the world and this is what is causing the global Israel bashing today. Natanyahu made a huge mistake allowing Barak to keep his job He will cause the downfall of the country. How about using these tactics against Arab illegal building which is going on all the time? Barak and people who think like him need to stop and ask themselves what are they doing? It's all an ego trip for them The people deserve real leaders Not politicians who use their positions to project their own inadaquacies and inferiority feelings onto those they are meant to protect.
20. JEW VS: JEW.
tzina ,   Jerusalem, Israel.   (12.20.09)
How the world laughs, there is nothing they enjoy more (except killing Jews) than watching Kol Yisrael fight among ourselves. Ho, ho, ho. :(
21. no swift legal action against Olmert
Marcel ,   Florida   (12.20.09)
This double standard is criminal and will lead to more violence and no peace anywhere in Israel. The divide grows under the rule of Netanyahu and his sidekick Ehud the Terrible.
22. Civil War is next
devorah ,   jerusalem, israel   (12.20.09)
Yeshivas should pull out all their soldiers. As well as all religeous and caring soldiers refuse to serve. Barak is wrong. This whole thing is wrong. Whom are we trying to impress?
23. #7 Do u read Y Net??? Or just talk crap??
KACH 613 ,   Judah, Israel   (12.20.09)
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3821927,00.html
24. Let him use force?
unlease the dogs? ,   Il   (12.20.09)
Oldnews paul: they already did- it's a sold government
25. Ocean front property in Kansas
LoMishaneh ,   Jerusalem   (12.20.09)
Believe this and you should also look into buying ocean front property in Kansas....
26. While Nero= Barak plays the harp while Israel burns
Kate ,   ISRAEL   (12.20.09)
I have yet to read the responses. But if Barak the DICTATOR implements this I assure all here,that there will be CIVIL WAR. Does anyone want to see Jews killing Jews? For our enemies IS MANNA FROM HEAVEN.They must be laughing to think:Hey! They are doing the job for us.Imagine that.. Barak & treacherous Bibi. But Barak is the errand boy carrying out what Bibi wants.And if this comes to pass I shudder of the consequences. This time the setlers are not going to the slaughter mildly as the Gush Katif people did. Once experienced NO SECOND scenario. BARAK just go,and stop this madness. When you were PM you were prepared to give our country away. No more freezing,and no more fighting. Think Barak::While you are going to send our IDF to dismantle our property,there is the WORK to be done in DEALING WITH hamas,Hizballah,Iran. Syria. So where is the time for the IDF to do their MOST IMPORTANT job? You are sending them to dismember Jews,while the enemy LAUGHS. Pathetic
27. Ocean front in kansas
to lo mIshane ,   Il   (12.20.09)
that doesnt exist- and Israel does- or what do you mean- jews r 2 b thrownalso from the states - no surprise there- Obama and Osama are the same
28. North Korea
Ephraim ,   Jerusalem   (12.20.09)
In North Korea, no violence is taken against people if the obey the laws and uphold the communist regime.
29. inappropriate rhetoric
tom ,   toronto, canada   (12.20.09)
differences of opinion do not have to lead to hatred and violence, especially not against fellow jews. this is now the second israeli government to use force to destroy jewish settlements, in exchange for the mirage of "peace" with the arabs. clearly, not a successful policy for the people of sderot, for example, even if tel aviv has been spared from qassam attacks (for now). barak's threats of violence are foolish and counter-productive. as for the settlers, they have been ineffective in arguing their case, and have crossed the line into advocating insubordination and treason, and inciting hatred - "lashon hara". both sides need to step back and think again about what's best for israel, rather than doing the plo's, or washington's, dirty work.
30. No Civil War if the government obeys (THE PEOPLE)
Stop the dictators ,   Israel   (12.20.09)
Whoever says this is a democracy is not watching the news in Israel
