1. WHO CARES
David ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.11.11)
what the PA thinks? This is Israel. the PA should stop teaching how to kill babies and govern thier own "people" from Jordan
2. Stay Out of This PA...
Eli Wapniarski ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.11.11)
I'm against this law, but PA get your nose out of our business. This is an internal matter that only affects Israelis and has absolutely no impact on you whatsoever.
3. Coherence
Abraham Nachmias ,   Petach Tikva IL   (07.11.11)
Many things (too many) I don't understand of this piece of news. 1) How does this affect the PA? That Israel for once has decided to eliminate traitors that get salaries from the state affects the so called "peace process"? What is the connection between what Mofaz says and the bill?
4. "boycott bill "- may it pass all readings
DT ,   TA Israel   (07.11.11)
at the Knesset. Time Israel fought back har and at all points of the compass.
5. Just Do It!!
Bad assed Jew. ,   United States   (07.11.11)
Israel is not subject to the approval of her enemies or their allies whose only goal is the destruction of Israel and the Israeli Jews. Been there, done that. WW 11 ended with six million dead Jews forgotten by these same would be emperors who suppose to dictate another disaster for the Jewish people of Israel, the only difference now, there is an Israel and now, these same Jews wont allow a repeat of history that others seem to have forgotten. Israel is a mighty independent nation who is not subject to the will of others who have in the past so willingly sacrificed Jews for moral ineptitude and anti semitism. Who else but Israel gets so much interference and mindless harmful publicity due to the real issue, oil and terror?
6. any excuse to avoid talks and justify going to the UN
zionist forever   (07.11.11)
This is intenal Israeli legislation and has nothing to do with the PA or anybody else. It has nothing to do with the PA and their failed leadership. The PA made a concious choice years ago to bypass talks and go to the UN in September. When Bibi gave them a 10 month building freeze they still refused to talk for 9 months and in the final money talked but got nowhere because they wanted the talk to fail. They wanted to talk for a month make them look good then when Bibi started building again a month later they could pull out of talks and blame Bibi. Now the PA wants to say thanks to Knesset domestic legislation and the PA will be able to walk away and tell Obama blame it on Israel for making this legislation not us and support our bid in the UN. This is an example of how the PA have been allowed to get to big for their boots. The western world has been idolizing them for so long and taking the attitude they can do no wrong and Israel can do nothing right.
7. Hypocrites
Ellen ,   Israel/USA   (07.11.11)
It is okay for the PA and its' supporters to boycott Israel BUT it is not okay for Israel to say that Israelis can't initiate this. In otherwords, Israel has the chutzpah to outlaw traitors and the PA is upset. DUH--and then as already said--who really cares what they think!
8. The PA
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (07.11.11)
The PA law books are filled with racist and hate laws including illegalizing homosexuality, justifying murder of women and calling for death to people who sell property to Jews. Who cares what they say?
9. rabbo can go to hell
mohson   (07.11.11)
yes beilin was intimidated into concessions by rabbo whose narrative is bunk as the arabs are the colonizers of original judea and samara with no identity other than to kill israel.Otherwise they are egyptians, south syrians and lebanese. beilin and fellows like ben ami and olmert are proof that jewish genes of submissiveness still thrive and need to be replaced. martial arts and defence courses for all wimps and haredi and all future beilinists and olmerts. Arabs take these fools for suckers. Beilin is bad was was an innocent dupe. Olmert is an absolute crook and coward in my opinion and you can see that in his testimony -maybe it happened but I was busy and confused and no I am innocent as lador is on a malicious witchhunt. 150 israelis died because this idiot couldn't go from A to B along with his stupid associate livni. He couldn't demand of halutz or perhaps yaalon who had offered to help is what to do we do about rocket fire ( the answer is load up the reserves and attack from several directions en masse after softening up using shields and whatever else would be needed. No this imbecile was afraid of casualties. he makes me sick as he is yellow to the core. Livni is not much better. And halutz will be defeated easily at the polls if he should try. He is another version of eli zeira-remember him.
10. Leave it to a Palestinian to issue a threat
Zev ,   Israel   (07.11.11)
with something that will be to their benefit , has not happened yet and probably will not. Gee am I scared. Abd Rabbo, I can give you 100 more threats to use. Besides you have never fulfilled any of the agreements so why should we negotiate with you?
11. A scrap of paper...
vitenberg ,   France   (07.11.11)
12. Bad for Fatah, good for Israel.
Lengualima ,   I   (07.11.11)
1. Bad for Fatah, good for Israel. After 63 years of confrontation not think the spirit of Little Red Riding Hood has invaded Fatah to wish something good for Israel. 2. It's not your problem. This is a matter between Israelis are the ones who should discuss to resolve it. AP has enough problems with their enemies Hamas, to deal with Israel. 3. In discussions of older children are not involved.
13. A scrap of paper...
vitenberg ,   France   (07.11.11)
1914: Bethmann-Hollweg, the prussian chancellor, said that the treaty guaranting neutrality and independence of Belgium is just a "scrap of paper" Today, Abd rabbo thinks that UNSC 242 is too a "scrap of paper". He is not alone: Roee Nahmas write:"It is estimated that the quartet will...push for negotiations based on 1967 lines" Estimated? Who? And what with "242"?: A scrap of paper!!! Did you hear once in Jerusalem that 242 is not a scrap of paper? I, no A lot of saliva and time for nothing, yes. But the essential, nothing Our politicians are marines who bail out a boat, but don't repair it...
14. The "Boycott Bill"
Spencer ,   Israel   (07.11.11)
Why the hell should Israel support people or groups who call for boycotts against Isael. I sincerely hope the bill is made law. As for Yasser Abd Rabbo, who cares what he thinks or says. He's just another terrorist supporter.
15. Yawn.
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.11.11)
I really care what the ersatz "Palestine" Authority thinks. I -- yawn -- really do. Honestly. Truly I -- yawn -- do.
16. #15 Sarah, don't fall asleep on us.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (07.11.11)
At least tell them to SFU or some other such fiery rhetoric, that we've come to expect from you. Don't forget, like Derek Jeter, you have a fan base to worry about.
17. Boycott bill
Dov ,   London/Tel Aviv   (07.11.11)
I cant help thinking that anything the PLO thinks is bad must be good for Israel. Are these latest comments by the PLO more conditions they are demanding before they get off their collective backsides and return to peace talks? Also, why is this bill bad but selling property in PA controlled areas to Jews punishable by death?
18. israel must protect itself
maurice clebert ,   judea samaria israel   (07.11.11)
from illegal arab occupation of judea and samaria, homeland of the jewish people. the so-called palestinians already have a country of their own, it is JORDAN.
19. what don't they denounce
izzie irgun ,   usa   (07.11.11)
its the same knee jerk reaction ..israel says omething , thepalestinians objkect. if israel said the sky was blue some idiot palestinians would say its israeli lies. How is that all these enlightened muslim states forbid boycotts except when they are directed at israel. isn't there any real news to report
20. #15 Keep yawning! It's what we need
Nour ,   One-State   (07.11.11)
In fact, yawn yourself into a deep, very deep sleep... Nobody cares about you, Shmarah.
21. Interesting
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (07.11.11)
The Arabs tell the world to stay out of their internal affairs when they massacre their own people, but when we talk about local laws they butt into our affairs. This is none of the PA's business what laws we pass.
22. Yet he fully supports pro-Palestinian boycotts of Israel
Carl ,   USA   (07.11.11)
Israel fighting back on identical terms is somehow a problem!
23. Nour / 20 reply to Sarah B
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (07.11.11)
Even is Sarah posts in her sleep she will be lightyears ahead of you when you are wide awake. Sarah has lots of fans here. You....not so many and none worth mentioning.
24. P.A., like the Israeli left, is a great reverse indicator.
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.11.11)
The P.A., like the Israeli left, is a great reverse indicator. Whatever the P.A. and the Israeli left love is deadly for Israel. Whatever they hate is wonderful for Israel. There are very few, if any, exceptions.
25. #20. Palestine will only exist in very bad dreams.
Chaim ,   Israel   (07.11.11)
#20. Speaking of yawning and sleeping...we are about to witness the second, and final, Palestine statehood fiasco. If Palestine was to be established, 1988 would have been the best time. However, as we all know, that attempt was an absolute fiasco. Today, there are more than twice as many Jews in Judea and Samaria, as in 1988, Israel is far richer and stronger and about to become a major energy power. Palestine will suffer the same fate as the recent flotilla. Fictional Palestine will only exist in very bad dreams. With a wish and a pinch of pixie dust, you can visit fictional Palestine.
26. To: Noodles at No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.11.11)
The ersatz "Palestinians" aren't really worth the effort; not on this subject, anyway. Like most people, I've grown quite tired of their threats. Besides, they couldn't organize a telephone call, let alone a credible opposition to the boycott bill. The very thought is laughable. (Or, in my case, yawnable.) Did you know that Derek Jeter and I share a birthday? I had it first, of course. Did you see him Saturday? My, oh my. And I'm a Mets fan.
27. Chaim / 25
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (07.11.11)
We could try clicking our magic shoes together like Dorothy in the Wizard Of Oz and repeat " There is no place like Palestine"
28. To: Manour at No. 20
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.11.11)
Shouldn't you be busy packing? All of the best slums in Jordan will soon be taken.
29. to nr. 28.
justice for all ,   world/planet earth   (07.12.11)
go packing yourself and go back (probably the us) where you came from. mansour has the right to make his own choices, regardless/no matter what you think of him/it. command your dog/cat and bark/make the noise of the cat (for) yourself. got it and is this clear (enough) for you? and last but not least (this time): MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!!!, then other people will also do so, with possitive consequences for all parties/for everybody.
30. #29 Justice, you're only speaking for you
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.12.11)
