1. Undo 1947 UN Partition
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (10.10.10)
...in Palestine Israel so all can vote in one Country, two States, with 5.6 m Jews, and 8.5 m native Palestinians.
2. if there is regret that the UN created a jewish state...
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.10.10)
just wait till a palestinian state is created. only more terror, blood, death, tears, and wasted trillions of dollars with nothing remotely positive to show for it. that'll be the real tragedy.
3. such declarations make process mute
Golan ,   Modiin   (10.10.10)
Any state making such decelerations cannot be part of the peace process and threaten Israeli annexation of territories and the annulment of the Oslo farce.
4. Good news
norman ,   France, Eurabia   (10.10.10)
I am glad to announce M. Kouchner lives his last days as minister. He is going back to the left so... good trip ;-)
5. How idiotic!
Manny ,   Canada   (10.10.10)
Who gave this idiot a job? What, they made him the FA Minister of France? Oh brother! The saddest part is that this will add more fuel to a never-ending debate to perpetuate this war.
6. Forget about this stupid Kouchner
Michel ,   Jerusalem   (10.10.10)
In three weeks time he will not be anymore minister..
7. No state without Israel's cooperation.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (10.10.10)
Said state will be stillborn. Kouchner, you should know that, scumbag.
8. One state solution please.....
Jack black ,   NYC   (10.10.10)
Yes like number one said let's take back all gaza and the west bank as Israel. But PA cannot vote unless they swear allegiance to the Jewish State and like the US pass a history test (on Israel and Jewish history).
9. Undo 1776 and end Benassi's illegal occupation
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (10.10.10)
Steve Benassi and the other illegal settlers are occupying native American land. It's time to annul the 1776 decrees and give the USA back to its rightful owners. Benassi, pack your bag - you're going back to where you came from and can vote there.
10. #1. 8.5 million 'Palestinians'????
Yisrael ,   Jerusaelm , ISRAEL   (10.10.10)
What have you been smoking ? Can I get some ? BTW, I agree with you. We should annex Yesha and give the Arabs provincial status, like in Canada. "Palestine'? Never was, and please God, never will be !
11. LOL!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.10.10)
Oh, those crazy French. The Security Council lacks the authority to create nation-states. It isn't within the scope of their charter. That said, it would not even ever come to that -- Israel would withdraw from the United Nations, thus making any United Nations resolutions nonbinding on Israel and unenforceable. The French must REALLY be getting desperate with their huge and violent Moslem minority. They're just looking for a place to dump them. Sorry, France, Israel isn;t your patsy. Remember what we did when you tried to withhold the sale of yellowcake? Do you want us to embarrass you like that again? Do you? I thought not.
12. Darn !!! Another self-hater ,...
split ,   USA   (10.10.10)
13. UN-FRANCE
Ezra ,   Florida   (10.10.10)
And I declare southern France as a new Muslim state with Marseille as its capital.The borders of the new state would embrace all of France except for a few villages where they still speak French. The new state will have the options to expand throughout Europe as it has already begun a couple of decades ago.The new state will be named;EUROPE. Its motto will be ALLAH AKBAR
14. create state
colin   (10.10.10)
The frenches come with thier threat tat the anti Israel,anti semetic arab controled UN will create a state. They forgot to sya where this supposed state will be !!!Has France given a piece of ground?? Maybe they talk of the desert in america?? Have they asked china for some spare ground ? Maybe they intend to put these criminals ,murderers and terrorists which the arab countries deported,banished into Siberia prisons with russian permission.
15. Look at how successful Gaza is
Adam ,   Los Angeles   (10.10.10)
It is inevitable there will be a Palestinian state in the West Bank also, but it will just be another failed state that cannot take care of itself and is infested with terrorism. So add Palestine to the list of failed states next to Lebanon, Iraq, Somalia and Afghanistan.
16. More nonsense from Euro-trash
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (10.10.10)
The UN has no such authority as claimed by Kouchner. Nor is it logical to recognize Palestinian "sovereignty" over territories over which it maintains no control. It cannot wave its magic want and - poof! - the PA now has authority over Ramat Eshkol and Gaza. This is just a fantasy of the Arab world and the useful idiots of the left (Kouchner included). If the UN tried to "enforce" such a decision, their troops wouldn't get within 100 miles of Israel. And if the US moved to do so, the Washington Mall would quickly fill with those protesting such a move.
17. Monsieur Couchner
Gabe Yakmore ,   Canada   (10.10.10)
Read your Bible Mr. Couchner. Moses gave orders to occupy Judea and Samaria.
18. ANNEX! ANNEX! ANNEX!
Marcella   (10.10.10)
You know Partition is coming. Whether by Talks or by UN resolution. Preempt that by annexing the heartland and offering citizenship to Arabs - provided they have no criminal or terror record - and provided they swear allegiance to the Jewish state. By offering citizenship you are not occupiers, it's all very democratic and legal. Dust off your League of Nations Agreements and prove legal title to the land. Annex! That's the only solution. You can't survive in a postage-stamp-sized state, surrounded by Iran-sponsored terrorists. Concentrate all your efforts on persuading your MKs to vote for annexation. Initiate a campaign to tell your PM and the world that you love your land too much to give it away - no matter how much pressure the ever more unpopular government of the US exercises on you.
19. In what part of France?
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (10.10.10)
You can go ahead and do so, just not on our lands. Maybe France should give up one it's colonies that it occupies for a 'Palestine' state.
20. "they" want - us - to go to war.
aviG   (10.10.10)
and get doomed with America, then come the pope over our ashes to bring "his" peace and whose arm blesses the UN and here we are with isra ? ...
21. #11 Sarah, could you please give us...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (10.10.10)
a brief synopsis of the "yellowcake" affair, for those of us who may have forgotten, or are unaware of it Thank you.
22. U.N. resolution plus a few bucks buys a pack of toilet paper
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.10.10)
There is no question that the U.N. could pass another resolution purporting to steal Jewish land from Israel. Just like the hundreds of anti-Israel resolutions it has already passed. So what? A U.N. resolution plus a few bucks buys a pack of toilet paper. Judea and Samaria rightfully belong to Israel and we should annex our lands NOW!
23. #21 - were those subs that French didn't want to release?
Arthur ,   SF, CA   (10.10.10)
24. The French are parasites
Charles ,   Paris, FRANCE   (10.10.10)
As the French around me become deeply mired in a state of self-loathing and laziness -- this country will be grinding to a halt in two days because workers insist on retiring at age 60 after a 35 hour work week -- Kouchner has the nerve to dictate a "solution" on Israel. France has great (kosher) wine and cheese, but no brains or spine. France and the EU need to get its own house in order before telling Israel what to do.
25. # 11 Sarah, ok then
Palestinian   (10.10.10)
The Palestinians to have the Haganah, Irgun and Stern, THE peaceful movements who were the first .. markets and public places. And while we are at it, to look for some one like Belfour to provide us with some sort of declaration to creat state in Palestine. How would you like then? What's good for the goose is good for the gander
26. Hi Sarah #11:
Israeli 2   (10.10.10)
Would you be kind as to explain to me about the UN resolution that effectively recognized Israel as a member nation? Why can't they do the same thing for a Palestinian State? Also, why should Israel withdraw from the UN, would make any resolution non-binding and un-enforceable? Thank you.
27. This only proves that continuing the freeze will be stupid
ishai ,   israel   (10.10.10)
In fact it was stupid from the beginning. the thought behind it suddenly became clear. once again, thank you obama.
28. To: No. 25
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.10.10)
The Irgun and the Haganah and the Stern were organized to fight the British, not the Arabs. Until, of course, the Arabs started to get really over-confident and violent. Witness Deir Yassin. The Jews just got a little tired of Arabs from Deir Yassin firing on convoys attempting to relieve the Arab siege of Jerusalem, and then -- like vultures -- picking over the bodies of the dead Jews. After Deir Yassin, no one interfered with the convoys. That said -- what about Fatah? What about the PFLP? What about the several dozen other "Palestinian" organizations that have leveled terror upon the Jewish people, both within Israel and in the Diaspora? What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. We can destroy you any old time -- you would do well to keep that in mind. You are nothing but a bunch of violent thugs and terrorists. Don't think that is lost upon the world. Europe may be "afraid" of you. Israel is not. We know EXACTLY how to deal with you. You are well advised to sit back and keep a low profile.
29. # 28 Funny gasbag
Palestinian   (10.10.10)
We should look forward to the coming Palestinian state for the peace of the area
30. To: Noodles at No. 21
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.10.10)
I have tried twice, but YNet is not publishing my posts. Google "Operation Plumbat" for more on the yellowcake affair.
