1. Abbas snubbed talks for 2 years and claims Israel to blame?
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & NY   (12.09.10)
Assad is full of it. Abbas knows good and well that if a peace deal is ever signed Israel will allow the Palestinians to have their raciest state and will evacuate out the Jews living there while being forced to keep the Arabs living here. Abbas has no interest in negotiations as he hopes the world will give him everything with no concessions that will get him killed like Rabin or Sadat.
2. Hey President Bashar Assad

Obama tried all he can, to make it work. But this time it was the Israelis that had really high demands.

TOUGH LUCK TWIDLEES. israel is here to stay. syria had at least 4 cracks at wiping out israel... 1947, 1967, and 1973... and each time was crushed in its attempts to do so. then it tried using the first lebanon war as its pretext to invade israel... but this time israel was too well prepared against the ill prepared syrian tanks. syria is a looooooser and israel will survive!

13. Look who is talking
citizen   (12.10.10)
Assad loves all these trips, makes him feel important - as if. I'll take him seriously when Syria gets out of Lebanon, when it stops funding Hizbollah and when we hear that his own people are free from tyranny.

Sorry to hear about what happened to you. In this case, the Libyans or Algerians or whoever they were took your gold and money, but it wasn't the Palestinians. The Arabs call Palestinians Arab but they don't treat them, in the same way that Jews treat other Jews. Arab is only a term to someone that speaks arabic as a first language but arabs themselves are as divided as the koreas and even worse. Just remember how Jordan fought the Palestinians in the Jordanian Civil War. Or How the Lebanese treated them or how Kuwait kicked them out. Till this day most Arab countries won't give Palestinians citizenship in their countries. So its not the same thing. Palestinians end up paying for it from both sides and don't get compensated from either side. They are like the Pawns in the middle. In my opinion if Palestinians stop calling themselves Arab and stop asking for help from the Arab nations, they will be way better off.
15. #6 Hehehe...Salma
Jay3 ,   Israel   (12.10.10)
What country does his song refer to? Jordan? No? Maybe Syria? Or perhaps it refers to Egypt....you know...the place where your leader, Arafat, was born???
16. Good grief # 12
Birdi ,   Israel   (12.10.10)
You must be freakin joking Judah (wink, wink) I got better things to do with my hard earned sheqels.
