31. If Gingrich knew his Bible he would know that G-d says it is
Andrea ,   US/Israel   (01.27.12)
forbidden to give land that He himself has given Israel (and only to the Jews) to anyone else, ESPECIALLY the enemy. HaShem says: "DO NOT sign any agreement with those that hate and want to kill you"!!!!!!
32. #11 Ale - Ynet did not post my first response to you
Devorah   (01.27.12)
which is sad since I was kind enough to write part of it in Italian just for you. So I will have to tone it down. I read the other talkbacks and will just say that I have to agree with #20 (Tia) and #24 (Solomon). No point in arguing with you since you don't know what you are talking about. You never do on your occasional gate crashings to Ynet. By the way, I am very much a woman.
33. TELL IT LIKE IT IS.."PALESTINIANS" = INVENTED AND HOSTILE...
Jewishness ,   AMERICA THE BEAUTIUL   (01.27.12)
"The leadership in Hamas says not a single Jew will remain. Well, you're not having a peace negotiation, then. This is war"... he's 100% correct! THE PALS DON'T WANT PEACE. proven! NEVER DID. PEACE IS defeat to the arab hostiles. PEACE Ain't gonna happen...the arabs are openly declared hostile to it, as the self-DECLARED enemy of Israel, the arabs are the stalematers & the non-believer's in a real and lasting DEMOCRATIC peace. Might as well wait out the present mess and defend Israel with all the might it can muster...meaning proactivity, big time...meant to get rid of the surrounding threatening militias! Cut off remaining aid from Irant and deteriorating syria. PALS: "If peace, then no Jews allowed" ...yeah sure...kiss my tuchas....
34. @5
WIZ ,   Canada   (01.27.12)
Didnt your so called Crusaders kill thousands of Jews???? Religious extremist gotta love them lol. Everyone here is dillusional. Hamas is not even the leader of Palestine...so funny. God bless Fox news. Hurry Israel make peace with Palestine when they have a left wing leader like Abbas as I hear Iran is working pretty fast.
35. And the reality is this
Tom ,   USA   (01.27.12)
The majority of the American Jewry under the directions of Jstreet, Soros, N.Y.Times, Hollywood etc. will rush to enthrone the Kenyan for the second time. The mere existence of a Jewish-nation state contradict to their Utopian Marxist dreams. Islamic states are cool, Israel is un-cool whispered T. Friedman to Obamao's ear. (sarcasm)
36. #30-Yes! but they tell the truth about the ARAB "INVENTION"
JEWDI knight ,   AMERICA THE BEAUTIUL   (01.27.12)
IT IS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOUR NOSE..everyone agrees... IT'S THE arafrat's "INVENTED" phony ARAB PEOPLE's, attacking and STEALING of A 60 YEAR OLD SOVEREIGN STATE'S PROPERTY BY THREATS, ATTACKS on it's civilian populations, mostly children and women, AND all OTHER warlike ILLEGITIMATE MEANS. No recognition, no Jews allowed, = NO STATE! period!
37. r cummings #22
Abie Dee ,   New York, US   (01.27.12)
I realize in the UK you guys are not used to hearing the truth from your media when it concerns Israel so it doesn't really surprise me that you have a hard time comprehending a point of view that differs from your own. As for stealing land, the Balfour Declaration called for 2 states in the area, one for Jews and the other for Arabs...Jews got Israel and Arabs got Jordan...there was no call for a third country called Palestine.
38. #30: your anti-semetic Palestinian side...
Jack ,   San Diego, USA   (01.27.12)
is in conflict with your ignorant Christian side. If you are truly Christian you'd better hope that Israel continues to exist if your Jesus is to come back as predicted. One thing for sure, as a Jew, Jesus will not even be allowed to set foot in an Arab Jerusalem.
39. #17 Zooey hooey
Ze'ev   (01.27.12)
You are wrong, but let's say for the sake of argument you are correct. If Palestine = Phillistine, then they belong in their ancestral land of GAZA, not Judea, not Samaria, not anywhere else. The Canaanites where a separate people fronm the Phillistines, and they disapeared from history long before Arabs (which are now claiming to be locals) immigrated and conquered those lands.
40. #17- Jews are the original Canaanites
Hannah   (01.27.12)
There is a new theory that the original Jews were a Canaanite group of peasants who got fed up with their wealthy masters and decided to live free and equal. So no worries- it will still be the Jews' home even with your antisemitic view
41. Palestinians are Arabs
Hiro ,   Tokyo, Japan   (01.27.12)
Who invaded the land over the centuries,forced the Jews and Christians to convert to the desert religion of Islam. But Jews lived continuously in the land of Israel and Judea...the national liberation movement of the Jews- Zionism is in its infancy- in 100 years the Jews have returned home, built a powerful nation blessed by Allah and foretold in the blessed Koran. The in gathering of the Jews is predicted by Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Those who bless this are blessed. Those who don't are condemed.
42. #17 - was Rodinson the final opinion on this matter?
William ,   Israel   (01.27.12)
Hardly, infact, they are hardly the only expert in this history which other experts have weighed in on and contradicted Maxime. What Maxime ignored was - a) Philistines are NOT Arab, nor semitic, when "Palestinians" are Arab and Semitic, as proven by DNA tests. Same with the tie between Canaanites and "Palestinians" which has never been proven, and even refuted by DNA tests. b) Canaanites have not remained a unique population since 3000 years ago and were assimilated into surrounding populations which often traversed the region of Israel for trade or economic migration. c) the well-documented, and often touted (by Arabs), invasion, occupation, and replacement of the population in the region in the 7th century by Arabs from Arabia.... ...and d) the massive economic migration of Arabs and other Muslims into the region in the 1930s which is well-documented. This completely contradicts the claim of "Palestinian" as a native population, let alone ownership of anything. It's like saying that Turks own Italy because of their large numbers there, while ignoring their arrival as recent immigrants, because Ottomans were there centuries ago.
43. Same can be said of "Palestinian" leaders...
William ,   Israel   (01.27.12)
and they supposedly know everything about the subject, huh? They claim laws that don't exist, they ignore their own statements from just years past, and they ignore the very agreements which they signed and now contradict. So - please, compared to the "Palestinians" themselves, Romney and Gingrich are geniuses. They do something you guys don't - actually refer to documented proof and written law, not conjecture and racism about what you "wish" to be true.
44. #34 - "Hamas not leaders of Pallys" - tell that to Leftists
William ,   Israel   (01.27.12)
Most of the liberals who support Hamas still claim they are the rightful leaders of "Palestinians" since they won election in 2007. So which is it? Well, I guess it depends on how your ilk are trying to attack Israel or discredit their supporters. You change your stories routinely, and offer opposite perspectives just for that argument while denying you said anything else. That's basically intellectually dishonesty, which for a group of self-described high moral intellectuals, is very telling. In other words, the credibility of people like you is about the same as the rating of Hamas in Gaza in official polls....pure crap.
45.  Linda Rivera, avoid ultra radicalism.
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (01.27.12)
Dear Linda Rivera. Your comment is too radical and dangerous. I am Christian, friend of Israel, like many others, with much care for her sovereignty and her rights. We support new frontiers that are secure, and we think Arab Palestinians ought to recognize Israel and give up from any "right of return". Nevertheless, West Bank is not only yours. International Law has to be obeyed. With all respect, you must moderate your views.
46. To my brother Salomon.
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (01.27.12)
My brother. You do know my great friendship toward Israel and Jewish people as a whole. But I don't understand why you are so radical about West Bank. Of course, new borders have to be drawed, not endangering Israelian defences. Of course, Jerusalem is your eternal capital. Of course, Palestinian State must recognize her neighbor and give up from fake "right of return". But Rammallah, Bethlehem, part of Hebron,Jericho, etc, are Arab cities. I don't believe you want to annex them and expelling its dwellers. Hebrew history, suffered but glorious, do not allow it. Salutes. Shalom. (Um abraço) in my Portuguese language.
47. #46 to my brother luiz
solomon ,   bklyn   (01.28.12)
All the cities you mention were once Jewish cities. Hebron holds the Cave of Machpelah which is said to be the resting place of our patriarchs and matriarchs. The arabs have never allowed Jews access to Jewish holy places while under arab control. They even have begun to write false 'history' denying Jewish history and places (Rachels tomb is a mosque?!); their recent record for coexistence ie nonexistent. But the fact is that they are there. You list what they must do, but it boils down to accepting a Jewish state next to them while ending their false claim of original ownership. And accepting that Jews would be able to live in or next to their cities. But they should not have their own juderein state because of false history but should acknowledge the truth; that they are late comers. And they should stop trying to eradicate the history and connection of the Jews to the land. I welcome your thoughts and comments about what needs to be done. But the problem, although signified by what you say the arabs must do, goes much deeper. Why accept people who do not wish to accept you to the extent of denying both you and your history? Um abraco, shalom, paz meu irmao.
48. NEEDED: Alliance for BALANCE&FREEDOM in MENA via BIG ISRAEL.

49. war of the worlds
avi kraft ,   israel usa   (03.23.12)
George Orwell also panicked millions of gullible Americas into thinking martians invaded New Jersey and were going to take over the earth. On the other hand Orson Wells work of fiction 1984 actually came true with big brother and double speak and all the other gobledebook of the left
50. to my friend Hiro
avi kraft ,   israel   (03.23.12)
tomodachi(friend in Japaneese)when I read your post it gladdened my heart that Israel rescued so many of your people from the earthquake in Japan. arrigato gozaimas
