1. 4,000 out of 5,660,700
Haim ,   Tel aviv   (11.21.10)
"Gee i see the nation has spoken"!4,000 brain washed sheep out of 5,660,700 jews living in Israel and lets not forget the settlers number 4 % of the population, yet they deny the rest a chance of real peace as they are so blinded by their hatred and selfish real estate needs. Why dont they go settle the Negev ask yourselves. . If they are so confident why dont they agree to a public referndum tommorow ? because they would loose simple as that. As if the other 96% give a rats backside.
2. in 2 years Obama will be just a bad dream
Anna M Sedda ,   italy-Rome   (11.21.10)

3. 1 Haim is correct!
Ali' ,   Scotland   (11.21.10)
Adopting comment #1 as holograph
4. The US cannot be trusted
Steve Klein   (11.21.10)
It is President Hussein's intention to undermine Israel's claim to her land. That is what this is about. The US government has a history of violating treaties and commitments. This American president is determined to establish a Muslim state in Israel; one dedicated to Israel's destruction. He is a dedicated foe.
5. Haim #1: "Real Peace"
Steve   (11.21.10)
What is real peace?
6. Abraham
vasil ,   NY, US   (11.21.10)
If he would reincarnate now, he would go to Palestinians and say: You look like my people. Why are these white foreigners hurting you? And than he would cry.
7. Watch Out Who You Call Rats
Referendem ,   Israel   (11.21.10)
The only person who is brain washed is you. You are brain washed by the global media outlets who teach that it is better to be like the rest of the world than proud Jews. It is you are more concerned with making money by connected to the rest of the world. You are the sheep. One more thing most of the country does not back further withdrawals...all polls show that.
8. Dont believe the hype! more then 40,000 protesters
David   (11.21.10)
showed up! YNET like the rest of the LEFTIST media like to make everyone believe that they arent the minority!
9. #1 - I wasn't able to get there
Chaya ,   Tel Aviv   (11.21.10)
And neither were thousands and thousands of others who agree with those that did!
10. Abba Eban in Der Spiegel, November 5, 1969
Abba Eban ,   Israeli Statesman   (11.21.10)
"We have openly said that the map will never again be the same as on June 4, 1967. For us, this is a matter of security and of principles. The June map is for us equivalent to insecurity and danger. I do not exaggerate when I say that it has for us something of a memory of Auschwitz. We shudder when we think of what would have awaited us in the circumstances of June, 1967, if we had been defeated; with Syrians on the mountain and we in the valley, with the Jordanian army in sight of the sea, with the Egyptians who hold our throat in their hands in Gaza. This is a situation which will never be repeated in history." - Abba Eban, Israeli Statesman, in Der Spiegel, November 5, 1969
11. I am realy sorry for you that you don't even understand...
(11.21.10)
....don't even understand the meaning of peace. Maybe the word democracy is also confusing you ?
12. to talkback nr. 7
(11.21.10)
you are right, rat is the wrong word, I would prefer right wing lemmings... the one who comitt suicide of my homeland.!!!!
13. #1 It's still more than the 1% of Leftists who want a freeze
(11.21.10)
14. the flip side
Michael ,   Haifa   (11.21.10)
Something good must be happening, if the right-wing loonies are out demonstrating
15. bad deal
marcel   (11.21.10)
Bibi, barak urged you into this deal, which even taken at best face, will bring no more quiet than now, and not end arab claims.Notice how obama doe not press abbas on israel recognition as jewish state. No, he takes arab positiin because that is who he is, really, he is arab. Moreover, withdrawing will create more terror positions. And give me a break. Only idf can protect jordan valley, not nato which inmost part begs canada and britain while they hide in quiet areas behind wires.Do not put jewish security in anyone else's hands other than the idf-end of story. Bibi, barak has led you to a bad, bad deal. And 10 F35s cannot compensate the bad deal even then you will have to pay for them. finally, whatever the reason, do not tell israelis distortions and lies of what you though clinton told you. Get it in writing right away, not some vague assurances which can be denied the next day.
16. #8, David. You are absolutely right.
tanya ,   tel aviv israel   (11.21.10)
Israeli Media statistics are not very accurate. On Rabin"s Memorial day they always report much bigger number of participants (I live close,so I know). When "settlers are protesting- the numbers are much less. Nothing new-we are being manipulated by numbers, polls, news...
17. Haim is not Jewish
(11.21.10)
He is an arab who claim his name is Haim.
18. Wonderful Jews! Fighting for the Rights of ALL Non-Muslims
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (11.21.10)
No people on earth should have their towns and cities frozen because they are not Muslim! No people on earth should be ruthlessly evicted from their homes, rendered homeless, and their land given to Muslims, because they don't belong to totalitarian Islam! NON-MUSLIMS MUST HAVE HUMAN RIGHTS
19. #1 Mr. Tel aviv-you move to the negev!
judy ,   israel   (11.21.10)
Have you ever heard the arabs speak? for them tel aviv is just as much theirs as the west bank. THEY WANT IT ALL! Your wonderful neighbors would have no problem hacking you to peices to live in your apartment and have your stuff.
20. Stop the nonsense !
Gabe Yakmore ,   Canada   (11.21.10)
Not one inch of the Land of Israel is negotiable.
21. B"H - One little demo in the morning, rain in the afternoon
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (11.21.10)
22. DEMOCRACY AND FREE SPEECH IN ACTION
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (11.21.10)
Good reasons to admire the State of Israel. Look on Iranians.People out on the streets protesting their own government and nobody being beaten up by government thugs. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
23. reminds me of Misparay HaKikar...
(11.21.10)
remember those? During the 80s in the heyday of protests against the First Lebanon War there were always huge differences between the real numbers issued by a variety of different bodies and the real numbers issued by the peaceniks. The peaceniks were always accused of placing th numbers at the higher side of the range...same thing here...I think the right wingers are playing the old leftist Misparay HaKikar game! What do you think?
24. Bibi must resign.Brought dishonor.
RAYS ,   New Hampshire, USA   (11.21.10)
Bibi's action on the "Freeze Negotiations" has brought dishonor on Israel, his family, and himself. The entire cabinet should insist he be replaced. Barak should crawl away like the creature he has proven to be. Israel needs strong ,princlpled, couragious leaders NOW.
25. #24 r u quoting Mulan? if u r u 4got "dishonor on ur cow!"
(11.21.10)
Really I don't think I've read a more ignorant and silly TB in a long long time! I didn't vote for P.M. Mr. Netanyahu but still he's the PM and what right do you have to use him as catnip in your peculiar fantasies? Are you for real?
26. Well said #24
Gabe Yakmore ,   Canada   (11.22.10)
Israel needs principled, courageous, strong leaders now !
