(01.26.11)
the beast!
2. "Plestinian" rage
GOOD ,   USA/ISRAEL   (01.26.11)
I wander how many people will lose their lives now that the "Palestinians" discovered a new reason to be angry.
3. Abbas the Great Appeaser
Joseph ,   West Bank   (01.26.11)
All the concessions that Abbas offered, and Israel still refused to make a deal with him. This just proves that Hamas and the others are right, Israel will never make a fair peace with the Palestinians no matter what the Palestinians give up. It is time for Abbas and his weak Fatah leadership to step aside and allow a strong leader to lead the Palestinian people to freedom and independence.
4. AND ISRAEL IS OBSTRUCTING THE PEACE TALKS?
stude ham   (01.26.11)
as if gaza is not the monkey wrench here... as if fatah is not looting the billions in foreign aid... as if iran and syria and hezboland are not greaqsing the slippery slopes... as if the quartet is anything but biased... as if....
5. HAHAHAHAHA
Golan ,   Modiin   (01.26.11)
Balestinians are ub in arms.
6. THE NEWS THAT I'D LIKE TO READ IS...
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (01.26.11)
......Several thousand Palestinians in Gaza are marching against HAMAS'S ISMAIL HANIYEH, calling him a traitor. Now that would be worth reporting. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
7. Selling an impossible dream
Jo   (01.26.11)
considering that in 48 the aggressor was the Arabs who wanted to annihilate Israel and all Jews to the sea, this unrealistic dream they have made for themselves has caused more suffering and pain than all. Their leaders should stand up and take a bow. Hamas is no angel and seeks to look clean handed? Bought votes is no fairytale righteousness, Until true bravery comes and realism is truth, nothing will ever happen.
8. #5 Golan AND ABBAS SHOULD....
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (01.26.11)
...biss off. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
9. Collaborators
Michelle V ,   Tampa, FL   (01.26.11)
We know what Hamas does to so called collaborators. Hanging people upside down and stabbing them, or killing them in the streets, for cooperating with Israel. Is this what they would do to Abbas and Fatah for carrying out their responsibilities to be the 'sole representative' and try and negotiate peace with the Israelis?
10. Even if Abbas wants to talk we can kiss goodbye to any deals
zionist forever   (01.26.11)
Now its out that Abbas was supposedly going to be a realist and make concessions on the so called right of return & Jerusalem its been the last nail in any peace process coffin. Israel can't agree to a right of return or giving up all of east Jerusalem. No government can offer that and survive. Now the secret is out no future palestiian leader is ever going to be willing to make the concessions needed to reach any kind of agreement so Israel can't make concessions, the palestinians can't make concessions so is there anything left to talk about? This is one of the main reasons Arafat refused to do any deals with Barak at Camp David, he knew he would be accused of treachery if he compromised on right of return. If the all powerful Arafat was worried about being branded a traitor there is no way any other leader can make those concessions.
11. The Truth Will Set You Free !!!

12. Dr. Erekat,
Salma ,   Palestine   (01.26.11)
I can feel with you : (
13. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.27.11)
Six wars, all started by the Arabs and won by Israel. Seven decades of unrelenting Arab terror. You get whatever crumbs Israel may generously decide to throw your way. You are a vanquished people. There is nothing -- NOTHING -- to negotiate. Stop pretending that you actually have a right to set terms and conditions for anything. Did the Allies allow Germany to "negotiate" an end to World War II? No, of course not. Why would you think -- after six wars and all those years of terror attacks on Jews both in Israel and in the Diaspora -- that you are entitled to greater consideration than Germany was accorded? Should have taken the deal in 1947, and the twice since that a two-state solution has been proffered. The sheer stupidity of the ersatz "Palestinians" boggles the mind.
14. Always the Americans and the Brits even if
Israeli 2   (01.27.11)
both the US and England are completely on the Arabs side. Never fails. Arab mentality.
15. Whoever leaks the truth is to be praised.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.27.11)
The truth shall set you free, as the saying goes. It's about time everyone, Israeli and "Palestinian" knew what a fraud the so-called peace talks with the P.A. are. Whoever leaks the truth is to be praised. Aren't we all fed up with the ridiculous and dangerous charade? It's time to end it once and for all.

19. i want some dirty leaks on...
Potash Katiftof ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (01.27.11)
This new form of journalism that leaks out diplomatic cables and other high-profile closed door interactions is fantastic! I really look forward to seeing this leaky journalism expanding. I wonder what kind of fun secrets the chinese and russians are hiding. Also something tells me that norway and sweden have some sick little secrets they are hiding.
