1. Revise the treaty? ABSOLUTELY!!!
Dudi ,   Israel   (08.28.11)
Take Sinai back again. Israel never should have given it to Egypt. We need it mamash as a buffer zone and we need to control it with IDF!!!!
2. Revise the treaty?
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (08.28.11)
NO!! Egypt has the sacred duty to repudiate the 1979 treaty abomination and thus atone for the traitorous president Sadat's perfidy!
3. change the treaty ? No way !!!
peter42y ,   lisbon,portugal   (08.28.11)
those who think that the deployment of Egyptian troops in the Sinai would protect israel are delusional. Egypt would deploy the troops and the attacks against israel would continue. Egyptians hate israel , not their fellow countrymen that launch attacks against the jewish state. The greatest threat is Egypt , not the ragtag terrorists from sinai. Do not bring the wold to protect the sheep
4. Revise the Treaty
Baba ,   USA   (08.28.11)
Israel never upheld their Commitment of the treaty. Ignored the clause about the Palestinian for 40 years Egypt should of scrap the treaty the day they realized that Israel will never honer any treaty and they had to go to the World court to get Israel to implement the clause about the Sinai area.
5. WE SHOULD SO TAKE BACK THE SINAI

7. KEEP THE PEACE TREATY & # 1
Mohmed ,   Alexandria, Egypt   (08.29.11)
IM AN EGYPTIAN CITIZEN AND I FEEL SO BAD WHEN I SEE AN ISRAELI ASKING FOR WAR LIKE #1 CUZ WHY WOULD YOU ASK FOR WAR WHEN YOU HAVE PEACE FOR THREE DECADES ???? IT'S SO SAD INDEED TO SEE THAT I WAS ONCE IN TABA AND I WAS SWIMMING WITH SOME ISRAELI AND WE HAD A GREAT TIME TOGETHER AND THIS IS WHEN I KNOWN WHAT PEACE IS ??? SO INSTEAD OF PEACE AND GOOD RELATIONS WHY WOULD WE ASK FOR WAR ???? IT'S NOT TRUE THAT ALL EGYPTIANS HATE THE STATE OF ISRAEL,MANY EGYPTIANS LOVE ISRAEL AND THE ISRAELI PEOPLE AND WE ADMIRE YOU AS WELL WE GOTTA KEEP PEACE TIGHT FOREVER SHALOM TO MY FRIENDS IN ISRAEL
8. Sure list to the moron #2
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.29.11)
Go ahead make my day repudiate the treaty, no $2.8 billion US taxpayer dollars, nor the $8 billion that we spend on Egypt. Hell they can afford to lose over half their income, the people are making less than the so-called 'Palestinian refugees' a lot less, so cutting that in half won't matter too much. The Arabs are used to cutting off their own noses. They can become the next Somalia, won't that be fun?
9. Barbarians at the gates!
John Prophet   (08.29.11)
Israel, as its been prophesied, you're now surrounded by hoards of barbarians armed to the teeth screaming death to Israel. The world will soon be backing up their screams granting them another terrorist platform along side you. There is no partner for peace, never has been. Only Barbarians, and Barbarian do not negotiate or compromise. They simple take what they want or die trying. Israel, it is now your job to help them die trying, or die trying!
10. Egyptian can't protect the border unless
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (08.29.11)
They can have some military presence. Majority of Egyptian do not want war. They like what they have. The extermist of them go to streets and , but compare to the majority, they are very small. They are nut cases in every country. Don't we have our own Haredim?
11. #7 thank you for your post
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (08.29.11)
The officers getting killed was a big regret and Israel should allow Egypt a liitle force in the area now that the boder is friendly to Gaza. Peace & yhanks again
12. #10 hareidim have nothing to do with muslim brothers !
Trumpeldor   (08.29.11)
If egypt abrogates the peace treaty,Sinai will be retaken !
13. No, we should not take the Sinai
Logic ,   Israel   (08.29.11)
The USA is the guarantor of the peace treaty and needs to enforce compliance.
14. Logic #13 you mean like the last time?
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.29.11)
The US was the guarantor of the last time we gave back the Sinai in 1957 and we saw how well they performed when the Egyptians violated international law.
15. #7 I am with you Mohmed
Nahum ,   Israel   (08.30.11)
Yes. Let's all meet each other - like in TABA - to improve relationships & get to know each other. At the same time we must beware of the extremists on both sides who are always planning to spoil our tranquility
16. What a hilarious "Disagreement"!
sk ,   USA   (08.30.11)
Notice that the obvious alternative, to "modify" the treaty by annulling it, or to insist that ALL provisions be enforced, is absent. Egypt is in violation because there were supposed to be various exchanges, including cultural ones. The treaty did NOT create a cold peace (or the reality of a cold war, people, as Egypt has been building for war since the treaty was signed). Is the chief purpose of Ynet to provide fodder for Latma?
17. #2 graczek - Turd with a keyboard
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.31.11)
Egypt didn't sign the treaty because it wanted to, it had to sign because it was just another war where Israel kicked their ass to defeat them Sadat realized that enough blood had been shed and truly wanted to prevent more bloodshed, since he was a soldier and knew what war was You're merely a loud mouthed jackass, who doesn't know shit from Shinola If you had any guts at all, you would leave the USA, head to Gaza, volunteer your services and wait your turn to get taken care of
