Once again the fanatical 4% deny the other 96% a chance of real peace. The so called settlers do not have to leave their homes just give them a Palestinan passport so they can know what it is to live under occupation.

and anybody that thinks that, is only a blind fool....

To all Likud voters, including (specially including) Feiglin. This is the result of your trust in a bunch of people who are not sure what they believe, just are sure that they want power! Think twice who you will vote next elections! We urgently need leaders, not people who take Barak's advice even looking his own results!

Why is recognition of Israel as a Jewish state now necessary when it never was before? And was not for Egypt and for Jordan in the (highly successful) agreements with those countries?

Ahmad Tibi, in an interview in Israel Radio in Hebrew, answered your question. Tibi said that if the Arabs recognize Israel as a Jewish State, then they will have to agree to negotiate an end of conflict and will have to give up the "Right of Return". Since (according to Tibi) they will not give up the "Right of Return" and they will not declare and end of conflict, they cannot and will not agree to calling Israel a Jewish state. Any more questions?

What suckers our government members are. What mamby pamby negotiators. Bibi should agree to a freeze "commensurate with a Palestinian freeze on violence". That means for every brick or firebomb thrown at a car, Israel approves a house permit. For every rocket and mortar fired from Gaza, Israel approves 100 houses. For any suicide bomber, shooting of an Israeli, car bombing or other bombing, the freeze is off. At the same time, Bibi should impose a total blackout on all Hamas prisoners until Hamas agrees to abide by international law and allow the Red Cross to visit Gilad Shalit. Until then, all Hamas and Islamic Jihad prisoners should sit in solitary confinement 24/7 with no contact with the outside world.

The poodle Netanyahu always does what his masters tell him to do. He does not serve Israel's interests but those of his first love and dearest idol.

The most important issue is not the Freeze. The most important issue is the upcoming PARTITION. Your government - the one negotiating the partition of your land - is relieved to see that the opposition centers on the Freeze instead of partition and the loss of land. In the meantime your government carries on, concocting plans that will help the coalition save face and so avoid its collapse. MKs who call themselves patriots, and above all the people of Israel, should be outraged at the fact that so much is being put in jeopardy in these US-instigated partition talks. Talks that aim not at peace but at the signature of a worthless piece of paper signed by a PA leadership that will be thrown out in the next election anyway. The new Palestinian state government will declare all promises made to 'the Zionist entity' null and void and will continue with their demands for more. You'll end up with NO LAND AND NO PEACE. Stop the negotiations. Annex the land and offer peace to everyone. There is already a Palestinian state: it's called Jordan.

...limiting their living space on earth is a form of racism. Any attempt to do so in DISPUTED territories while refusing to ask the other party to the DISPUTE to refrain from constructing their homes in these very DISPUTED territories is a form of applied racism, anti-Jewish racism at that. It is high time America realized who its "progressive" President is: One with a built-in hostility toward the nation-state of the Jewish people and by extension to the people whose nation-state Israel is, and who treat these people - despite all the "Charm Offensives" - with unabashed for of racism...!!

I couldn't agree more with you. But why wait this long. Sort out those arabs once and for all. I think Israel is capable of doing that..... not?
