1. No suprise here!
Avi ,   Ramat Gan   (02.24.12)
Two Jewish Atheists team up for the double effect of shameless self promotion!
2. LOL!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.24.12)
Does that sad, sordid, over-the-hill Peres think that anyone is interested in his opinions and suggestions? Well, I'm sure that there are no end to the Arab terrorists and their sympathizers who are chomping at the bit. The sane proportion of the population is disgusted and, yes, embarrassed. Peres has far outlived his usefulness. What's wrong with retirement?
3. Why not? positive PR is a good thing and they will always
(02.24.12)
be more famous than some guy called Avi from Ramat Gan..
4. #1
jonathan ,   London   (02.24.12)
As ever, it is the way you look at something that makes the difference. You could choose your way, which to me sounds very judgemental and defensive, or you could applaud this person, senior in years, for still thinking outside of the box and trying new ideas, when old ones don't seem to be working, in an attempt to move forward... - it is up to you.
5. to 1 what relevance atheism has to do with it?
ygalg ,   israel   (02.24.12)
peres gullibility toward peace is no different to theist belief in talking snakes or flying donkeys to far mosque.
6. No Arab leader would ever do this...
(02.24.12)
then again, why would they when they have Peres doing their work for them?
7. Sarah B
jonathan ,   London   (02.24.12)
I think you're loosing your spark Sarah - I used to enjoy reading your posts, which showed courage and saying things as they are. Latterly I find that you're playing to your Ynet audience for applause, rather than having anything relevant or insightful to say. Perhaps you should take a leaf out of Peres's book and innovate. The same approach becomes tiresome and boring.
8. Peres 360 webcam show
elhrac ,   USA   (02.24.12)
What kind of pervert would want to watch Shimon Peres available 24 hours daily. At least if it keeps him busy and away from serious issues, I see nothing wrong with this.
9. THIS PROVES FACEBOOK CRITICS ARE CORRECT!
stude ham   (02.24.12)
10. my god - they could be twins!!!
oferdesade ,   israel   (02.24.12)
difficult decision - though - who is the evil one... (until now i thought they were one and the same person - you'd never see them both in the same place... kinda like clark kent and superman, though who is the mild mannered reporter from ...)
11. To: No. 7
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.24.12)
Au contraire. First of all, your opinion really isn't all that important. Secondly, I find the prospect of Peres having a Facebook page really rather ridiculous. Thirdly, I am not a fan of "social networking," and am inordinately proud of the fact that I neither have a Facebook page nor an interest in acquiring one. If that makes me "tiresome" and "boring," to you, so be it. I can produce a laundry list of people who would disagree and whose opinions matter far more to me than does yours. Not all innovation is a good thing, Jonathan.
12. sure !
Noor famous activist ,   Gaza   (02.24.12)
i became a famous activist and met some jewish soldiers ! i like facebook
13. Obamao's lapdog
Tom ,   USA   (02.24.12)
Zuckerberg is an ardent Obamao lover, no wonder that the ex-vice president of the Socialist International joins the group.
14. #1 stfu. you are an idiot.(end)
roxanne ,   haifa/sfo   (02.24.12)
15. Facebook IPO
Joe Sombrero ,   USA   (02.24.12)
Just in time for the Facebook IPO
16. Mark Zuckerberg is a genius!
Keren ,   IL-BR   (02.24.12)
A Jewish genius! And I am very happy he stays where he belongs. It is great he keeps attached. Be it more and more!
17. peres prominent in the greatest waste of time, how fitting.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (02.24.12)
18. stupid, pathetic, ridiculous and dangerous idea
Bernard Ross ,   st anns bay, jamaica   (02.24.12)
who is it going to promote peace to, the jews, the muslims? such concepts fool the jews into thinking there is a possibility of peace. Such efforts focus Jewish resources and energies on futile endeavors. such notions prevent the jews from focusing there energy on the one area that can guarantee security: military might and military exertion. When will the jews cease this neurotic, manic, masochistic and suicidal contemplation on their own right to live? No other people exhibit this insane existentially dangerous behaviour
19. 11
john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (02.25.12)
No Facebook for me too.Good post at 7.
20. A Great Divide
NS ,   Long Island, NY, USA   (02.25.12)
I see a great divide between those Talkbackers who criticize for no other reason than to hear themselves talk and those people who see this as a way for President Peres to communicate with world in particular young Jews and Arabs. Both President Peres and Mark Zuckerberg deserve credit for this very positive move. As for the TB's who can't separate their hatred for President Peres from doing something positive for Israel I have one thing to say: GET A LIFE!
