31. Obama has no credibility in the USA
RAYS ,   New Hampshire, USA   (10.27.11)
Only the deaf,dumb and blind fail to see that President Obama's program is to disarm the USA and it's friends. Israel should look to it's own interests.
32. Annexing Yudah-Shomron is the only solution
Yossef   (10.27.11)
33. History&geography teach : BIG ISRAEL practical compromise.
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (10.27.11)
34. Obama doesnt miss a trick.Continue building as freeze will help zilch.
Alan ,   SA   (10.27.11)
What progress was made during 10 mnth
35. The Easy way out of this problem...
Nationalist Zionist ,     (10.27.11)
Step 1: figure out how long it takes the standard permitting/review process to take for new construction Step 2: State unequivocally that there will be no active construction during the period equal to that required for the standard permitting process that always has to take place. The wording is very important. Step 3: After the permitting/review period has expired, so does the fake "freeze", and construction continues unimpeded Step 4: When the US/EU/British/Russians/Nazis come back, tell them to go to hell, and that they should perhaps explore a Palestinian state on their own territory. By then their economies will have de-evolved into nothing and they won't mater anymore anyways.
36. "Great effort"?! How about Obama choking on a chicken-bone?
tom ,   tel aviv   (10.27.11)
Now, that would've been an honest effort!
37. Russia Boosts Iran's Armory with
Moragh   (10.27.11)
Mobile Radar against Planes or Missiles...... a sure sign of the End Times. My, oh my, just explain why the Bible is so true? for THAT is exactly what the Bible says. And not only that, but, when Russia marches into Israel to kill and plunder it will take all of 7 months for the Jews to bury the dead enemy. Hey! bring it on.
38. Salma Talkback #10 is Lying
John ,   Alaska   (10.27.11)
She does not want peace at all. An earlier post from her on this news site read: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will soon be free!" (direct and accurate quotation of Salma in an earlier talkback to another article) Do not trust her or any fake "Palestinian" Arab. The want only one thing: ALL of Israel.
39. No freeze, no veto, 2 States, or 1 State,
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (10.27.11)
...is the future of Palestine Israel, Zionism will end up in the dustbin of history, again.
40. Israel must not tolerate another racist freeze.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.27.11)
It is time for all of Patriotic Israel; the vast majority of our land, to rise up and make it abolutely clear, by words and actions, that we won't ever tolerate anothe racist building freeze. This land is ours. End of story.
41. caving in to obama would be a disaster
david ,   new york   (10.27.11)
anyone with a couple of nerve cells in his skull understands that everytime israel caves in to pressure, they only increase the pressure on them. once israel started with the insane "land for peace" idea, the pressure for "land despite no peace" increased. its simple: the way to avoid pressure from america and europe is to show that it doesn't work (or it backfires). the US wouldn't try to pull off this BS with egypt, turkey etc. because they are afraid that it will backfire.
42. Way to go salma, switch the blame! Good defense...
of the indefensible ,   NOT!   (10.27.11)
43. shapiro
steve   (10.27.11)
after milking American Jews for money over his promised "veto" ,Shapiro's overlord, Obama, now demands what he would not have received in the first place. This was the "trap" all along that Obama set. He was never going to simply do the right thing. Shapiro is just a capo to Obama
44. Dan Shapiro needs to reeducate
Brod ,   USA   (10.27.11)
Shapiro needs to know more about the challenges in the region so he can advise Obama, Biden, Hillary and Panetta accordingly. He needs to see Pat Condell's powerful commentary in Youtube entitled, "The great Palestinian Lie." The Truth will set the West free from being manipulated by the Islamist-Jihadists like a dog.
45. What progress was made etc. #34
Moragh   (10.27.11)
ZILCH, and I'll never understand why BiBi even thought it would help. Arabs are arabs are arabs! BiBi, stop playing silly games!
46. Why is help needed?
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (10.27.11)
The US doesn't need any help.It just needs to veto the bid...LIKE IT SAID IT WOULD. What's changed since Obama opposed the bid?Nothing as far as I can see.Methinks that Obama is showing some Islamic tendencies and his statements cannot be trusted. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
47. Is exhtortion the new U.. policy?
Michael   (10.27.11)
Mr. Shapiro's comments greatly damage the sovereignity and legitimitcy of Israel. It sends avery wrong message. U.S. is afraid of Europe? The europeans are on the verge of economic meltdown. What is europe going to do throw their worthless currency at the United States?!
48. How about the US lead the way with a freeze of their own!
Ken ,   Los Angeles, USA   (10.27.11)
Let the Obama show how eazy it is and freeze all construction in Illinois then call on Israel to do the same in the West Bank. It makes as much sence as asking Israel to freeze without the PA offering any thing in return.
49. #10 Salma. "Palestinian" demands on Israel are amusing.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.27.11)
#10 Salma. "Palestinian" demands on Israel are very amusing. What can "Palestinians" do to back up their demands? What do "Palestinians" have to offer Israel? The answer to both questions. Absolutely nothing.
50. Will U.S. Racist/Religious Jew-Hate Never End?
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (10.27.11)
Obama and his administration are incapable of concealing their rabid Jew-hate. Freezing Jewish communities, cities and towns for the sole reason they are Jewish? Will the U.S. next demand that Jews have abortions?
51. Kapo Dan Eisenberg is requesting
(10.28.11)
on orders from Barack Hussien Obama & Hillary, both noted for trying to tear Israel out by its roots
52. #23 Split/schizo
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (10.29.11)
No reason to wonder, they can't handle their own messes, riots, bank problems, unemployment and loads of Arabs that would rather demonstrate than work
53. HORRIBLE PROSPECT
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (10.29.11)
They're now talking about having Hillary run for President since Obummer has become so very unpopular This would mean replacing one anti-Semite, Obummer with Hillary who is another one Obummer implemented Obamacare, Which was Hillary's original thought when Bill was in office; she tried to force Hillary Hillarycare down America's throats Tweedle dee will be replaced by Tweedle dee 2, heaven forbid Besides, it will be Bill that will be pulling Hillary's strings; they have been planning her run for the Presidency for years & years, ever since he left office All of Hillary's actions have been contrary to Israel's best interests, since she has favored the Arabs
