''He who curses Israel will be cursed!''

Arabs are trying to grab Jewish land under the false pretext of the peace process.

If Bibi gave into the Kenyan, Muslim Obama, the citizens of Israel should rise up and throw Bibi out of office as quickly as possible, just like American's are going to do with Obama.

Show him that Israel has never had any intention of making peace or following international law. Please. Build! Barkat, get some live Al Jazeera footage going of building to show the world you are boss of Israel, not Bibi...

Napoleon Barkat.

that Jews cannot legitimately construct homes and businesses in any of these areas, i.e. this land is not really ours. If we capitulate to Mr. Obama on this, we will have lost the war. The essence of our argument will have been undermined. Our argument being that the entire Land of Israel is free and available for Jewish settlement, construction and development. Isn't that why we are here? Let the Arabs first acknowledge that a Jew can build anywhere here that he wants and we can then speak with them about how they, too, can peacefully live with us. (If the limited Jews from building as a precondition for talks, shoulldn't we demand a complete cessation of Arab construction?)

We don't need you, we can take care of ourselves. You push your perverted views on us and flash your money. You think because you (were) rich, you can force everyone to do your bidding. Go home and leave us alone, before we (your only friend in this area) desert you.

This is as normal as Jerusalem construction, OK Jerusalem is Jewish for a very long time and not Arab. Read the Bible dear Utopians

It is quite obvious that the Obama administration is in firm control of the Israeli government through their representatives Ehud Barak and Shimon Peres who although were not elected as foreign ministers are basically taking over the foreign policy of Israel for the Obama administration. It is quite obvious now that Israel does not have a democratically elected government. It is quite obvious that the government is a puppet of the United States. The fact that the Israeli government is placing a building freeze in Ramat Shlomo in other areas of Jerusalem is a testament to that fact. Every government denial of overwhelming evidence given in the media is an insult to the intelligence of the Jewish people in Israel and the world. No amount of game playing and word games will change that fact. Unless the Israeli government firmly and categorically denies statements of the United States and starts openly to build then I have have no reason to disagree that the freeze is real. Israel is inviting massive pressure with each act of appeasement. Questions need to be answered as to why Ehud Barak and Shimon Peres are so eager to push peace agreement or when they are not elected officials of the foreign ministry. If Bibi Netanyahu is truly in charge he needs to prove it. It is quite odvious Barak Livni Peres and Netanyahu cannot be trusted with the security of Israel and the Jewish people. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com

has taken an unofficial saying by Netanyahu to Mr. Biden with regard to the realistic time before construction in Ramat Shlomo will begin, and turned it into a "policy" that Israel will not construct housing in Ramat Shlomo for two years. So, the Arabs are pleased and can say "Israel has committed to stop construction in Jerusalem". But Israel has never committed to cease planning and construction throughout the capital city but the actual construction of 1,600 apartments for the poor: and this is "progressive" Obama's achievement...

These people like to insult Obama. Where were you when the Bush withdrew us Israeli funds. Its barely made any news.

jerusalem jewish neighborhod existed on the east side of the city up until the arabs plundered the houses, and took over them go look for Nachlat Simion :) that will burst the buble of yours.

washington, :) I demand you to stop build in washington other wise I will need firm action and demand complete building freeze with sunctions. :) see simple don't demand something from someone else if you yourself can't handle it.

the talks to last more than the allotted 4 months? After this Israel will be free of any obligations. Besides, Ramat Shlomo is not all of E.Jerusalem, and according to Channel 10, the PMO only committed to Ramat Shlomo.

no peace without J'lem, our capital

y should it be now. :) you just want something that was never belong to you.

Please stop calling "east Jerusalem" neighborhoods like Ramat Shlomo, which is in the north, and Gilo in the south. Arabs can buy properties in New York, London, Paris and in all Israel. So why Jews are not allowed to have their homes in every part of Jerusalem and even in PA territory?

also, cannot be controlled.

Who do we believe? Is there a building freeze or not? Why does it take two years for construction to be approved? Why do the Arabs want to steal Jerusalem from the Jews? Why does Obama want to take Jerusalem away from the Jews and give it to the Arabs? Does he really think this is the right thing to do? Does the Bible have no relevance anymore? Jerusalem belongs to the Jews. It is totally absurd to imagine that it belongs to anyone else. For thousands of years is has been the heart and soul of the Jewish People. I have no answers. Does anyone else?

Uzi Landua was the only portfolio minister to vote against the construction freeze in Judea and Samaria commonly misnamed as the West Bank. He is the only Israeli Politician that tells it like it is and acts in accordance with Israeli National Interest.

Bibi says this, Edelstein says that, Landau, well, who knows? Is this passing the buck or just passing the time? Abbas wants a state (another) for the Pales in Western Pales, yet demands Israel do this, and do that before talks. He won't even sit across from Bibi in the same room, and this is headed towards peace after 100yrs of fighting? Who is Israel to make peace with? What about Hamas/Hez/Syria, Iran/Libya, etc? Will they turn their swords into plowshares? Come on, and I'll sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.

US, PA and Israel are just doing a little chest thumping. At the end of the day, the best Israel would offer, if a deal seemed possible, are the Arab neighbourhoods. Abbas has already turned this down. Israel and the Palestinians may be better off looking for a way of living together through an extended truce than a peace agreement with all the details. Unless, of course, the Palestinians prefer violence and rebuilding from scratch.

Justice for the Palestinians must be enforced / compulsory also, nothing else would work.

out of controll. :) he also built buildings in the arab neighborhods, only in paliwood it's not brodcast. he even wanted to build national park on the east side but the arabs refused. violant riots y no idee.

Adnan al-Husseini, the Palestinian mayor of E Jerusalem, got the memo didn’t Barkat? If Barkat keeps talking nonsense about building in Jerusalem he will be out of a job soon. Someone tell him to pipe down otherwise Obama will use the stick and not the carrot.

reside in certain area is pure and simple a form of racism, anti-Jewish racism. This racism exists in Jordan - a country in peace with Israel - as well as in Saudi Arabia. This racism of course exists in areas under the PLO's Palestinian Authority and of course in the Gaza Strip. "Progressive" Obama has not a word to say about this form of anti-Jewish racism, the same that prevailed openly in the US until the 1950s and 1960s. It is high time Jews in America demanded of the person for whom they voted to cease being a racist...!!!
