1. the less US EU etc, mess with ME the faster pease come
alex   (01.10.11)
2. Seems like Clinton,Obama, EU are on drugs
Abraham ben Jacob ,   Canada   (01.10.11)
They are pretty harsh on Israel, it seems. What about the Muslims destroying the Christian faith in Pal-arab controlled areas. Are any EU observers going to help their own fellow Christians in Muslim lands ??
3. Is the EU, U.S. going to send in troops ?
abraham ben Jacob ,   Canada   (01.10.11)
Wow these Euros, Clinton, Obama have really gone overboard. Is there any arab oil money involved ? Do the EU, U.S want more influence in the region ?
4. Do you think maybe they don't like Jews controlling Israel
Abraham ben Jacob ,   Canada   (01.10.11)
5. Let's send observers to monitor the occupation in N.Ireland.
Brian ,   NY, NY   (01.10.11)
6. DEAR EUROPE
yahudi ,   ארץ ישראל   (01.10.11)
בס"ד Jerusalem has been the capital of the Jewish nation since your fathers fathers were living in caves and worshiping stones. No amount of meddling, provocations, or propaganda can or will ever change that.
7. Does Yerushalayim Belong to Israel? Or EU? Decide!
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (01.10.11)
Who is the authority in Yerushalayim? Make it so.
8. Beloved Jerusalem
Dr. A. Q. Khan ,   Pakistan   (01.10.11)
9. "by legal... means" - so what is their complaint?
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & NY   (01.10.11)
If Israel is working "by legal and practical means" what is the complaint? This is not illegal activity but perfectly legal restoration of the identity destroyed when Jordan occupied Jerusalem and evicted the Jewish population, which had an continuous 3,000 year presence.
10. neo palestine pseudo capital
avraham ,   south   (01.10.11)
Gaza City is the obvious top contender for the title of "capital".
11. #5 they have for many years, and still do. Some are
(01.10.11)
Called informers
12. Jerusalem vs. Gaza and the role of the EU and the US:
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (01.10.11)
While perfectly legal construction goes on in the capital city of the nation-state of the Jewish people, Israel, daily now the Muslim-Arabs of Gaza fire mortars and rockets at the civilian population of southern Israel; hitting drivers on the road and working people in the collective farming community (kibbutzim) of the western Negev..., yet the international press is somehow silent about it. I suspect only when Israel finally hits back harshly and extracts casualties from amongst the Muslim-Arabs of Gaza will the press and the cyber hounds here and elsewhere will find the time and interest in dealing with the border that is hitting up between Gaza and Israel by the Islamists of Gaza...!! P.S. Any while the EU and the US State Department complain about the perfectly legally act of a private person constructing 20 apartments on his private land - an act that was also approved by the Israel Supreme Court - we here not a sound about the military aggression by the Muslim-Arabs of Gaza. I wonder, why...??
13. Crusaders
Ricardo Macher ,   Karnei Shomron IL   (01.10.11)
Seems to be that some Europeans still believe that like the Crusaders they have the right to interfere in Israel! The only solution is to state loud and clearly that Jerusalem is the not dividable capital of the State of Israel and that any foreign interference (that of course includes Mrs. Clinton) would be highly unwelcome.
14. They Can Watch While We Build
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (01.10.11)
United Jerusalem is Israel's eternal capital- exclusively.
15. Questionable
john   (01.10.11)
Quote: "settlements were illegal according to International Law." East Jerusalem is not "occupied" territory but annexed from Jordan following a defensive war, which jordan never had legal holdings on that territory in the first place. Everything labeled "occupied" is actually "disputed territory" and has strong merit under international law - "occupied territory" does not stand up to international law regarding the so-called "occupied palestinian territories".
16. Beloved Jerusalem
(01.10.11)
the capital city of Israel,the land of the Jews
17. Viva Palestina
Paula ,   Spain   (01.10.11)
Latin America and Europe ....
18. The EU cannot even protect their own citizens
Jonny ,   South Africa   (01.10.11)
Perhaps these self same Governments whose consuls are sticking their noses up Muslim backsides, should be sued every time there is an anti semitic act of violence in theri own country. They cannot even protect their own citizens.
19. Observe and complain is all they'll do.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (01.10.11)
20. Viva Arabica
(01.10.11)
welcome to the EU & CURRUPT Latin America
21. Europe
(01.10.11)
became big mouth without teeth. EU go do nothing but condemn & condemn & condemn.Watch out from babies cobra in your countries.
22. The fate of the 20 units.
Shlomo Kamera   (01.10.11)
Someone should blow up the 20 units just prior to their completion.
23. Beloved Mecca, our real first love.
Dr. B.S. Manure ,   Fakestan   (01.10.11)
Loving Jerusalem is just to tick off the Jews.
24. demolishing a building built by the mufti is a good thing
zionist forever   (01.10.11)
The Shepard Hotel was built by our old Nazi friend & uncle of Arafat the Muftti of Jerusalem and the fewer reminders of him the better. " This is disturbing development undermines peace efforts to achieve the two state solution " I wasn't aware there were currently any efforts underway to achieve a two state solution as Abbas walked out on talks and Obama is unwilling to use his muscle to force him to negotiate. " In particular, this move contradicts the logic of a reasonable of a reasonable and necessary agreement between the parties in the status of Jerusalem. " Maybe when Obama stops going out of his way to insult Bibi and acts like an independent middle man we might actually take notice of what our American enemies ( Obama & Clinton ) have to say. If its so necessary to reach an agreement why won't Obama risk upsetting the muslims and order Abbas to talk. We didn't agree to any building freeze so why should we act as though we did? We are not members of the EU so that troublesome organisation so they have no right to dictate terms. England no longer has a mandate to make any decisions anymore. We will never again allow the British to forbid jews to blow the Shofar at the Kotel. Jerusalem belongs to us now and we will built what we like where we like. OBAMA, CLINTON, EU., UK BUTT OUT OF ISRAELI POLITICS
25. Once again, double standard
R ,   Israel   (01.10.11)
The document mentions "...continue to "negatively affect" Palestinian life". Where is the concern for the negative effect of rockets fired from Gaza on Israeli life?
26. EU
JAMES ,   UK LONDON   (01.10.11)
So now we know the EU has taken the pally narrative hook line ...European Union foreign affairs chief Catherine Ashton described the demolished compound as a Palestinian symbol what kind of drugs does this woman take..Bibi needs too make some things clear about history too the uneducated plebs.
27. to No 17
john ,   tel-aviv   (01.10.11)
Viva? A bunch of corrupt losers, straigthen out your economy first than lecture others. You'll follow Greece soon, as your country is keen on siestas and bull fights and shouting your brain out, instead of hard work. It's such a pity that you lot invaded Latin America and brought your habits there, they would been much better off being conquered by the British, they could at least teach them a thing or two.
28. If it wans't BUT for the British
Ed ,   UK   (01.10.11)
No such thing as Israel of 1948
29. Israel vs Arabs
Peter van Schie ,   Spijkenisse, Holland   (01.10.11)
While the EU complains about Israels internal policies, European countries are getting islamised more and more...
30. JERUSALEM IS NOT TANGIERS
bruno ,   portugal   (01.10.11)
So 25 EU Consuls will monitor what happens in Jerusalem. Do they think that they are in TANGIERS, the International city in the North of Morocco during Colonial days... ?These dudes have converted their wishful thinking into what they label international law. Just send these 25 consuls to Ramallah and have them monitor PA activity instead since they are the real recipients of EU bribes.
