Why laughing? This is the story of your people's self destruction. I suggest you stop laughing and work to reverse it. Palestinians are stuck in a welfare trap, blaming others for their problems while producing nothing and collecting donations from jew haters around the world. If you are sane, you are embarrassed by the accomplishments of your people. I find your ability to "laugh" in this situation very telling. No wonder!
32. Now there is no gray, only black and white
Sue ,   Los Angeles   (04.28.11)
For years Israel has been pressured to make peace with the so-called Palestinian "moderates." Now there is no such thing. The extremist Hamas, who are an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, and who are dedicated to the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people, are the Palestinians' official leaders. Now we have clarity.
33. #17 - SAM
Eric ,   Montreal   (04.28.11)
Wrong! On the contrary, Abbas just gave Bibi a GREAT excuse for not entering into peace negotiations. And the US and the EU will not be able to reproach anything to Bibi, since they both consider Hamas a terrorist organization.
34. The PA has now moved further away from UN recognition!
michael redbourn ,   arad, israel   (04.29.11)
Rapprochement with Hamas should be counterproductive to the PA’s campaign to secure UN recognition in September for an independent state along the June 4, 1967 lines. No morally minded country should recognize a Palestinian state led by a government whose members reject the Mideast Quartet’s principles of renouncing violence, accepting past agreements, and recognizing Israel’s right to exist. “Should", however, should be the operative word here.
35. #26 - time to up the anti-propaganda medication!
jane ,   London UK   (04.29.11)
You are becoming more and more deluded which is sad. You look at the surface but need to look beyond the seemingly obvious. You, more than us in the West should be able to understand and to see through slanted headlines. What have you gained since 1948? Hand-outs? Is that what you want? What have you lost?
36. ONLY Chaim #24 -25 nailed it! Bravo Chaim

37. israels government and talks...
eporue ,   europe   (04.29.11)
they dont talk to abbas, fatah, plo, syria, lebanon, egypt, jordan, the quartett, the us president is avoided at any chance... your FM is homebound since he took office - ok, except for romania and ukraine, after this he insulted the dutch fm - but that was it so far... so, you dont talk anyway... the unity deal is just a new excuse...
38. Israel doesn't recognize such an 'authority'
Ypip ,   Canada   (04.29.11)
39. #20 both baby !!
Masrawy ,   Egypt   (04.29.11)
Egyptians are arabs That's why we' re called the Arab republic of Egypt That's why Arabic is our official language That's why we're in the Arab league
40. #27; Ahmed, You Seem Confused
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (04.29.11)
First what dictators do you speak of? Certainly the USA never supported Gaddafi, and he's the one still in Power and has killed thousands of his own people. Syria has Assad another dictator the USA never supported and he's still in power and in the process of killing hundreds (close 500 at last count) soon to be thousands. Both of those dictators were against Israel and not supported by the USA, so you can't blame either of the two countries for your problems. Mubarak the dictator that did keep peace with Israel, left power while doing the least amount of damage to his own people. So the one dictator the USA did support is waiting in custody, possibly to be hanged. So it seems you have dictator's with or without the USA, right? But the ones without USA support are the most murderous to their own people, interesting isn't it? Hafez Assad killed 20,000 in one massacre (city of Hama), 700 killed in another. So get your facts straight. Don't blame us for YOUR dictator"s. Iran is another example, they killed how many of their people in the riots after the rigged elections of 2009? Take some responsibility for your troubles.
41. BIBI,NO TALKS WITH THE DUMB AND DUMBER!!
GLENN ,   YUCAIPA,USA   (04.29.11)
42. netanyahu.
justice for all ,   world/planet earth   (04.30.11)
netanyahy and friends have to ask themselves how and why hamas came into existence in the 1980"s and if he wants that the palestinians recognize "israel" then he has also to recognize a palestinian state at the same time. love cannot come always from one/the same side only. otherwise everybody can become/is suited to become the premier/prime-minister and president of "israel".
