31.  Do not Appease
Dennis Carlberg ,   Webster,Ma. USA   (10.11.10)
Do not Listen to other countrys Who would have you give into the people who allready have given up too much! N.Chamberlen with Hilter prior to WW2
32. He's MY MAN!
Arthur ,   SF, CA   (10.11.10)
33. NO to appeasement!
Jan ,   Houston, Texas   (10.11.10)
Yashar Koach Mr. Lieberman for your courage to stand up for what is right!! Your words should be front page news in every newspaper....maybe you can knock some sense into this crazy world! History repeats itself....if we let it.
34. Lieberman is right on
Brod ,   USA   (10.11.10)
It is time to tell the scoundrels to mind their own business. They have NO business meddling in Israel's internal affairs.
35. Lieberman is what you need
Rachel ,   US   (10.11.10)
The guy has stones that's for sure.
36. :: Lieberman is a joke!
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (10.11.10)
"Before you teach us how to resolve conflicts here, I expect at the very least that you solve all the problems in Europe" states the foreign minister of a state which is barely 60 years old. This is like a 5 year old kid telling grown ups that it knows better! Instead of acknowledging Israel’s utter failure to establish peace with the Palestinians over the last 60+ years Lieberman attempts to play the ‘victim card’ by accusing Europe of ‘singling Israel out’ just because Israel has occupied and oppressed the Palestinian People for decades while all the time illegally stealing their land and resources. Lieberman would do well to remember that nobody takes him seriously, not even within the Israeli Gov.
37. KUDDOS to LIEBERMAN
Cindy ,   TA- Israel-   (10.11.10)
Finally someone said in louder voice what everybody thinks. KOL HA KAVOD AVIGDOR!
38. wsieglass and barak
alexi   (10.11.10)
Weisglass says the new proposed oath of citizenship is meaningless. Weisglass advice is not very good. he advised sharon to withdraw from gaza unilaterally without securing the tunnel strip. So he doesn't impress me with his law degree. In fact, he, olmert and livni, all lawyers, have useless and pathetic advice for israel. Now, sharon said israel will not be another chekoslovakia. lieberman follows suit. What does ehud barak say, no lets trust europe to protect us in the form of appeasing the arabs. lets trust them. Barak who refused to do the syrian, hit, who allowed idf to be lynched in ramallah and did nothing about it, he will trust europeas. like they did 6 million jews a lot of good. Barak joins olmert in pantheon of failed cowards of israel.
39. Lieberman broke with the servile Jew boy/girl script.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.11.10)
#19 Israeli2. You are absolutely correct about Moritanus and Kouchner. Like their fellow E.U. bureaucrats, they are used to servile Jew boys and girls, in the Israeli government, bowing and scraping before them. Their faces express the great surprise they experienced when Lieberman broke with the script. Rather than simpering at the feet of Eurotrash and begging for their approval, Lieberman told them where to go, though politely. GREAT WORK LIEBERMAN!
40. Europe always makes a mess of things. They have no
Harry Wright ,   UK   (10.11.10)
backbone whatsoever and only know how bend down. Right now their own countries are over-run by foreign invaders and they haven't a clue how to deal with that even if they wanted to. They prefer to change to suit the foreigners rather than to hold on to their culture and practices. They should be the last people to call the shots for Israel. Lieberman is right - let them solve their own problems first, and boy, do they have problems!!! French politicians no longer speak for the French, they speak for muslims.
41. #19: As a double you are doing quite well...
Israeli 2   (10.11.10)
keep it up.
42. Israel's one man "Straight Talk Express"
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (10.11.10)
In 2000, Sen. John McCain built his campaign on "straight talk". In contrast to Peres "Ve vant piss!" mantra, Livni's opportunism, Barak's promotion of Labor policies, and Netanyahu's reticence to challenge Fatah's behavior or the US's bad policies, Lieberman presents the truth others won't speak. It's no wonder Clinton and Europe's politicos (Ashton, Kouchner, Moratinos, et.al.) don't want to deal with Lieberman. As Jack Nicholson's character in "A Few Good Men" said, they can't handle the truth.

Arthor ,   Chicago   (10.11.10)
It's magic
44. re#19 Do you really think Lieberman is respected......
Californication ,   Los Angeles, USA   (10.11.10)
no one listens to him or really cares what he thinks. This is the same man who begs Europe to upgrade Israel's ties with the EU. If Europe is so disorganized, why are you begging to be admitted into the EU? You people are laughable. The fact is that Barak is your Defense and Foreign Minister. How man times has Lieberman visited the US to discuss peace or anything else for that matter? It seems that Netanyahu always sends Peres or Barak to speak on Israel's behalf. Lieberman is a little Russian puppet which we in the world laugh at.
45. Every leader in the world tells us how to make peace and whe
quotes from Israeli ,   talkbackers   (10.11.10)
n to build in Jerusalem, while their own countries (Spain and France in this case, but also Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Britain and even the USA) have established colonies in Africa, India, China, America, Australia and the Caribbeans while abusing locals and exploiting them - they all come and preach morality to the one people who was never aggressive and suffered in every country he lived in (including their own).
46. LIEBERMAN IS A HERO!!!! LIEBERMAN FOREVER !!!!
JEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEW ,   GERMANY(MYLANDTOO)   (10.11.10)
47. Tells the truth
Yehudi ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.11.10)
Lieberman may not be very diplomatic but he certainly tells the truth. I like the man.
48. Where on earth would you get such a..
DT ,   TA Israel   (10.11.10)
straight talking decent tell-it-as-it-is politcian like Lieberman ? Good for him. I wish he was PM. How he must be giving the wothless Left apoplexy
49. BRAVO
Birdi ,   Israel   (10.11.10)
Kudos to Mr.Lieberman for not taking crap from the Europeans.
50. Hahahaha
Palestinian   (10.11.10)
Wow, It seems that the Israelis find in Lieberman their new "king". Sorry to tell you that: the last king of Israel was Sharon. Your Lieberman is just a clown. I sincerely wish this guy becomes the prime minister. That will make it easier for the Palestinian to show the real face of Israel. Viva Lieberman...
51. "Matty Groves": Don't you possess the
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (10.11.10)
necessary self-reflection to see how less and less relevant you have become, your diminishing stature on this forum, your lack of cogent research and your rehashing the same things you tried to write two years ago? You really are a wearisome and tiresome Talkbacker. Suggestion: Try another hobby.
52. Finally Someone With Guts
Dan ,   USA   (10.11.10)
Finally an Israeli leaders who makes sense and has guts. He should be you PM, not the always bending Bibi.
53. Not at all a fan of Lieberman but...
dave ,   san francisco   (10.11.10)
This is the most intelligent thing he has ever said. He is right on mea achuz.

Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (10.11.10)
I am the biggest joker here.

In your dreams.
56. AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE BALKANS AND CYPRUS AND SO ON...
stude ham   (10.11.10)
europe has many problems ... not least of which is preventing st. peter's at the vatican from turning into a mosque.
57. 21 Steve - same misquoted number on multiple articles?
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & New York   (10.11.10)
Steve I would love to know how you come up with 8.5 million native Palestinians when there was never a Palestinian nation. At most there are less than 100,000 refugees from the war in '48 and they were Ottomans or Arabs but not Palestinians. Their decedents are not legally refugees, but prisoners and tools of their Arab brothers. Please remember that no Jew forced the '48 refugees to leave, while every Arab country evicted their Jewish population and confiscated their land and property. On the other hand no one is keeping you on Tribal land stolen from the Native Americans.
58. Kouchner and Moratinos get the "respect" they deserve !
Salma ,   Palestine   (10.11.10)
Hey EUROPE, your child is becoming spoiled...Mabrook !
