31. This is our land our 4000 year home our 3000 yr
reciprocity ,   its a word, lookitup   (05.14.12)
capital Jerusalem. study history everyone. Jews are not asking the arabs... who colonized and occupied, ruthlessly I might add, the levant and north africa...to leave or split their 23 countries up....or their massive oil wealth. Leave us alone, take responsibility for those arabs who refuse to accept jewish sovereignty and peacefulness here. take those arabs in, just like israel took its jews in from your lands. reciprocity, its a word, look it up.
32. To: No. 23
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.14.12)
Since foreigners have no stake in Israel, why are they forever interfering in Israel's internal affairs?
33. Jordan="Palestine" would be a COMPROMISE!!
Jerry to Sarah #3 ,   The Netherlands   (05.14.12)
34. Annexation is the logical conclusion.
Ezra ,   sandiego   (05.14.12)
The highland between the Jordan River and the Med sea IS part of Israel. The actions of our neighbors will force annexation sooner or later,...all to the benefit of nation. Baruch HaShem.
35. HELP US WHO LIVE THERE!!! ANEX!
Riva schertzman ,   Betar Ilit   (05.14.12)
For those CITIZENS LIKE ME who pay lots of taxes and allow our children to serve in the army, we DESERVE to be treated WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION AND IN THE SO CALLED DEMOCRATIC WAY! When we are subject to MILITARY RULE, it means that when we have a dispute about our real estate for example, we cannot take the problem to a regular court. in fact, this makes getting justice for our problem very difficult as i have CLEARLY EXPERIENCED. And we are certainly treated differently from other citizens. WE HAVE LESS RIGHTS. SO, TIME TO ANNEX! !! NOT TO DO SO IS DENYING OUR RIGHTS, IS CRUEL, VERY VERY CRUEL!
36. meridor, begin---
pinchas ,   boston   (05.14.12)
you will notice that these "princes" of Likud are ALWAYS obstructing the majority sentiment in Likud and the nation. They belong in Kadima or even further left. Why does Bibi always kowtow to them? Why are they always at the top of the Likud list? Such stupid nepotism and corruption in Likud!
37. And if you annex it what will you do with the Arabs
Liron ,   Tel avi   (05.14.12)
Think carefully. Will they become citizens with the right to vote. If so, goodbye Israel. Will you force them, millions, into Jordan. If do, you will see iran rain down missiles. And no one will say a word or lift a finger. So goodbye Israel. Any other brilliant ideas.
38. It is the governments fault for catering so many years to...
Cause n'effect ,   Israel   (05.14.12)
Arabs. We build roads for them, provide water, electricity (things it does not even do for some Jews... give the PA billions of dollars, weapons, training... we built them up and gave them jobs for 100 year. So of course more Arabs come from other countries and "now" call themselves "Palestinians". If Jews were willing to do the work themselves.... they would not have CREATED THIS PROBLEM.
39. Bibi made a clever move
A ,   Belgium   (05.14.12)
He wont do anything that might p.o. the Americans ...bomb Iran, annex Yesha, etc....until after their elections. He will need Obamas support (Romney would support Israel without a doubt, but he won't win), so by postponing and not entirely eliminating the Yesha annexation proposal, he can use this later on if/when Obama is re-elected, Israeli law is imposed on Yesha and the "palestinians" begin migrating to the east side of the Jordan River. The postponment is only to make Obamas election campaign less cluttered, so that he can't be even more hostile to Israel than he already is.
40. The BEST solution is to fill Judea & Samaria with beautiful
REAL SOLUTION....!!! ,   Israel   (05.14.12)
Jewish homes and institute a policy of MASS ALIYA of JEWS from the US, South America, South Africa, Europe, Australia..... FILL THE LAND WITH GOOD JEWISH SOULS. But they have to have a decent place to live and obviously that's not going to happen with the idiots now in office. Most diaspora Jews WOULD move here and solve the (actually non existent) but perceived demographic problem if they thought they had a government they could trust, that would back them and not stab them in the back a few years later, AND a decent place to live. It would create jobs... it would bring the Moshiach. It would produce a beautiful, peaceful and abundant state.... The arabs who now live here can stay. They can eventually become citizens if they take an oath of support to the state, pay taxes, do things legally and don't cause trouble. Those who don't or cause terror (just like Heredim or others) should immediately loose citizenship and sit in jail or be deported.
41. #37: Neither will be the case.
Israeli 2   (05.14.12)
1) Transfer them to wherever and whoever accepts them (Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia) 2) The Iranians by that time are a non-entity to reckon with. Now keep smoking your pipe.
42. #35 of course you are treated differently
Gregg ,   Haifa, IL   (05.14.12)
You don't live within Israel's borders. You're a settler, living illegally in a place that is not Israel. If you want to be treated equally like other Israeli citizens, then settle within Israel borders
43. BIG ERROR.
Gideon Reader   (05.14.12)
The after taste pf wasted opportunities. So. Simply a polititurd like all polititurds. Another small man not up to the challenge of being a great leader. Disapearing amongst the motes of historical political dust
44. bibi boobie, backs off! booboo!
avi dobuler ,   beit el, palestine   (05.14.12)
Bibi once again shows himself to be a politician in the worst sense of the word. The campaigned new Bibi is the same old Bibi. Less hair and more gray doesn't mesn smarter for thd experience. He is without ideology, no backbone, an appeaser, disloyal to his party platform, members, people and country. Likud is Labor in sheepskin.
45. Thieves by nature!
henryschachter ,   bournemouth   (05.14.12)
Jarda- Czech Republic. Do you know how blatantly Anti-Semitic that statement is? As a matter of fact the country was stolen from the Jews for two thousand years by Romans, Arabs Christians Turq and Britain. Idiot!
46. Annex or not to Annex
As it is ,   bournemouth   (05.14.12)
The biggest mistake was not to have annexed the whole of the west bank in 1967. So, there would have been five million refugees instead of four million! big deal! The holy land is the holy land because it was Jewish, not Muslim, Christian,Druze, or any other country or creed that wants to lay claim to it.
47. to 42
Jennie ,   Israel/US   (05.14.12)
Who do you think you are fooling here, with your "Haifa, IL" signature, Gregg ?
48. Israel needs to END its schizophrenic policy!
Nurit Greenger ,   Los Angeles USA   (05.14.12)
If Israeli Law does not apply in Yehuda and Shomron, then what the hell is the supreme court doing executing Israeli law based judgments in there? These judgments DO NOT APPLY! Those judgments are all baseless and illegal. Flagrant violation of the jurisdiction of the said courtiers.
49. What the hell is the PM doing?
Nurit Greenger ,   Los Angeles USA   (05.14.12)
Under what Law the Israeli Civil Authority, the police and the Shabak are operating in Yehuda and Shomron if it is NOT Israel law? What constitutional set of laws were created for Yehuda and Shomron, as it is not Israel?
50. #42 No one since that's where I live
Gregg ,   Haifa, IL   (05.14.12)
51. Annexation equals
SD Charger ,   San Diego   (05.16.12)
Armageddon, no? That is a sure fire way of having the world get po'd at Israel. I'm not a fan of the UN, but isn't there some lines drawn on a map or something? Israel will draw a line in the sand with this bill and it will trigger the end time battle of Armageddon. It will start with protests and escalate out of control.
