3. The Peace Process?
Z.Z, Coltrane ,   USA   (11.30.11)
The road to peace is paved with Israeli blood. Shame on Bibi for allowing the terrorists' to, financially, enjoy the fruits of their labor, which were wrought over the dead bodies of Israelis'. May God stop this madness! God bless Israel!
4. The only way to stop funding to the PA....
X Likud ,   Israel   (11.30.11)
Is to get rid of Bibi and elect a REAL leader
5. Pure Insanity
Yisraeli   (11.30.11)
There is no logical explanation as to how a bright and intelligent society can de-evolve to such levels of stupidity, especially its leadership. And it just doesnt stop, on and on calling for Abass to sit and talk. Havent you learned anything by now? Ive kinda given up and now live in chul without the daily insanity.

the article says : "The armed revolution of the Palestinian Arab people is a decisive element in the campaign for liberating and eliminating the Zionist presence. This struggle shall only end after the Zionist entity’s elimination and Palestine’s liberation. Absolute objection, that cannot be revoked, to recognizing Israel as a ‘Jewish state.’” This author is a failed pathetic brainwasher, you're not fooling me And? So? of course a "jewish state" is discriminatory by religion, why would anyone reasonable want that? Further more : "The armed revolution of the Palestinian Arab people is a decisive element in the campaign for liberating and eliminating the Zionist presence. " And? So? he just doesnt say which borders, areas, he could mean Poland or Hungary or the Antarctis, this "author" is playing with your simple minds, referring to "theow the jews into the sea", sorry you racist mediocre silly author, you're NOT fooling me.
7. funding plo
moron ,   galut   (11.30.11)
if israel is at war with them then do not fund but go on from there and pursue victory---if goal is to live with them without defeating them then one must keep agreements and fund...peace usually comes after victory not from a kumsitz
8. To: No. 6
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.30.11)
You have no right to criticize Israel. We know what Europe's record is with respect to the Jewish people (basically, Europe is one huge Jewish cemetery). So shut up; mind your business; and concentrate on your own collapsing "union" and your own devastated economies. Oh -- and you can put your poor excuse for a mind to rest. We have no interest in Poland or Hungary -- been there; died there (in vast numbers) and the Antarctic (note proper spelling) is too cold. The ersatz "Palestinians" can move to any of the foregoing locations, where I'm sure you will welcome them with open, loving arms, and then promptly expel them, as every country has (they are a violent and aggressive bunch, and no one seems able to tolerate them for long -- in fact, the country that has tolerated them the longest is Israel).
9. Abolish the Tax Agreement
Mark ben Josef ,   USA   (11.30.11)
Just make a phone call or two. The PA will be happy to have Israel no longer as its tax agent. Fayyad knows how to structure tax collection. Just do it above-board. You can get the documents repealing that part of Oslo faxed back & forth or use Livni as an intermediary.
10. The author is correct
bjl ,   usa   (11.30.11)
Dont for get that Abbas is better known by his "war name" Abu Mazen. Just the fact that Abbas Abu Mazen is meeting with the Hamas and Mashaal trying to unify the groups tells you everything you need to know. It is a Islamist struggle to oust the Jewish State. The one and only historical Jewish State is too much for the Islamists to take. They will at all costs seek to desrtoy it.
11. Why are we Giving free money to our enemies?
Phoenix ,   Israel   (11.30.11)
I never understood why? Why? Why are we giving money to our terrorist enemies? So they will keep buying arms to kill us? So they will have always money to keep trying to destroy the State of Israel? I work my Butt and pay a lot of taxes so this taxes may be giving to abbas and Hamas? We must stop funding our enemies!!!! There is no logic at all in that!
12. read abbas' lips or better his UN address
art ,   jersey city USA   (12.01.11)
It has reached the point where abbas barely bothers to hide his anti Israel position anymore. Just read his un speech Tand his speeches before and after. He shows his malice towards Israel and the Jews. There is no place for them in the me. And his statement that the 2 state plan was just a step to the reclamation of ALL Israel
13. Afraid from Arab Spring
Ido ,   Tel Aviv   (12.01.11)
No you people don't understand he is worried to be kicked out of the parliament!! therefore he is the new puppy dog of Hamas
