You had eight years of failure and started more wars than you could shake a stick at. Silly woman.

if by her own admission this was such an unbelievable offer, and really addressed many of the issues, and gave the arabs basically everything they could ever ask and hope for and she clearly states that abbas rejected this wonderful offer, why then does she not blame him for rejecting it? who is to blame if not their leader? if shes making a reference to the fact that some extremist would kill him the minute he accepted a peace deal than she should just tell it like it is... that there is no chance of peace so long as the zookeepers cant keep their islamist fanatics under control, unfortunately, that seems to be a huge percentage of their population.

Olmert out of office already!

Just imagine what would have become of Israel if ehud barak and ehud olmert had been left in office. There would be no such country today as Israel belonging to the Jews, the true owners! If Israel is ever lost or taken over by God's enemy, Israel WILL stand but they have a terrible job of burying the dead enemy for 7 long months. Even the Russians will find their graves in Israel. I wonder if anyone here has watched a Vulture waiting in the wings for the destruction of their enemy. After the enemy has been murdered, they swoop down to pick the bones clean. These vultures are the ones who will be wiped off the face of the earth by none other than the Lord G-d himself.

Poor old Condy would not have believed the stupidity coming from the numbskull across the dinner table - what an unbelievable MORON Olmert is!

That was until Obama and Hilary blew into town. I wouldn't say I miss the former two but they do look so much less the incompetent fools from here, wouldn't you say?

Settlement construction per se could not possibly be a negotiation spoiler. At best it would be a gesture of goodwill and confidence building measure by Israel But given there is so littlle goodwill capital left between Abbas and Netanyahu its a pointless exercise And in any case settlements or no...however many are built will not affect the final outcome of a peace agreement I agree with Rice..the media and Abbas have invested too much focus and energy in Israel halting settlement construction and not enough in moving the peace process forward All the while we all look askance at the ridiculous WILL THEY WONT THEY antics of the peace process and wonder how when there are millions of examples around the world of Muslim and Jewish unity why its taking so long to achieve it between Israel and Palestine

Even non-Jews are shocked by the weak-minded stupidity of Jewish leaders willing to bolster the genocidal prophecies and goals of Arabs, and give up their undeniable historical, cultural and religious rights for a false sense of security.

Zionist Clinton

...see. Actually, the Jewish villages, towns and cities throughout the western part of Eretz Israel (Land of Israel), at the center of which is Zion or Jerusalem, are there based on that which is part of the corpus dubbed 'international law', in addition to the fact that this is the heart of the Hebrew/Israeli/Jewish people homeland of 4,000 years. It was the San Remo Conference, 1920, that incorporated the Balfour Declaration, 1917, into its decisions and resolved to see the geographic region called "Palestine" as the "national home for the Jewish people", or the nation-state of the Jewish people if we were to use present diplomatic language. The League of Nations in its decisions of 1922 accepted this view, one that has remained until 1945 when the United Nations incorporated the League of Nations' decisions, not to be tampered with and/or changed. Hence, that which is called by some the West Bank was determined back in the beginning of the 20th century, legally, to be part of the nation-state of the Jewish people, and in one's nation-state, one builds on public land and cultivates its land. And this is precisely what the Jews of Israel have been doing. Any attempt to weave different "narratives" are just that: attempts to tell fictional stories with which to convince the uninformed.

and Clinton did blame Arafat. The only consession that Israel can no longer agree to is any return of refugees. Israel has a demogreaphic problem now that is getting worse. There are some 200,000 illegal Arabs within green line Israel that should be deported or at least encouraged to leave. Abbas wants all so called refugees to have the right of return into Israel. Ain't happening.

Because there is no chance of peace. It takes two to make peace and the Arabs have announced their goal is our genocide. How hard is that to understand? The Arabs have the exact same goals as the Nazis. Genocide of Jews and world domination. There is no difference.

I remeber those years... I had a GUT feeling Olmert was offering Israel throat on a silver plate... I was right !!!!! I was only praying the the pals true to thier form, will reject it, and thanks the lord they did !!! IN THESE DAYS OF BLOBAL ISLAM UPRISING NO LAND EVER SHOULD EVEN BE CONSIDERED TO BE GIVEN TO THEM!! THE LAND IS THE ONLY THING THE WILL HELP US DEFEND OURSELVES HERE, NOTHING ELSE WILL DO. UNTIL OUR LEFTIST UNDERSTAND THAT THIS CONFLICT IS NOT ABOUT THE LAND BUT ABOUT THE VERY LIVES OF THIER GRANDKIDS, WE WILL BE IN TROUBLE...

Obama and his cronies are the worst thing to ever happen to my country! Please, God: Help us turn this dark page of present history. God bless Israel and His Jerusalem (Muslim free)! A Christian Zionist

Rice is right. By now she should know that Obama is a fake christian. He is a closeted Islamist and an AntiSemite. The Land of Israel-Judea and Samaria belong to the Nation of Israel since ancient time. It is GOD-GIVEN and GOD-RESTORED to the Nation of Israel. No mortals can tamper with GOD'S Providence. Period.
