1. What else do you expect them to say?
Lobo ,   USA   (10.08.10)
At the end of two months, this will happen again. Bibi should either build or step down as PM.
2. Peace ->1967 Borders or war
Ali ,   6 of October, Egypt   (10.08.10)
3. Obama wants vague weasel words, Bibi demands written details
Dr. L. Brnd ,   San Diego, USA   (10.08.10)
No surprise here. The hold up in a "guarantee deal" is that Obama wants his "Obama guarantees" to be vague, undefined and full of loopholes that lets him weasel out once he gets what he wants. Bibi wants everything in writing, "i"'s dotted and "t"'s crossed so there's no way Obama can double cross him again. This is the sleazy way Obama operates with the American people, too - "You just didn't understand me" - every single time he's called out on yet another broken promise. Bibi should not yield an inch. America is fed up with this guy and his lies. He can't be trusted. Obama's operating philosophy is that people are at least twice as stupid as they actually are.
4. NO wiggle room !!!
Ron ,   US   (10.08.10)
Of course Mr Obama wants a "vague" wording so he can back out later and press Israel yet again and more. Israel stand firm, vigilant and remember Begin made sure of all, that everything was very clear before he signed anythng
5. An evil 'plot' not a story
David ,   Shiloh Israel   (10.08.10)
6. Bibi should ask Abbas
Shalom   (10.08.10)
if he guarantees that after the additional 2 months of freeze will be up there will be peace from the Arabs and they'll stop firing rockets into Israel?
7. #4 No wiggle room
Ehoop ,   UK   (10.08.10)
Absolutely right!
8. to #2: War then!
David   (10.08.10)
