31. Preemption of election
Brod ,   USA   (10.12.12)
Obama anti-Israel forces are preempting Israel's government. Israel must never give away its liberated historic homeland despite the pressures of external forces and the demands of its enemies. The peace of Israel's enemies is the destruction of Israel. This is another example of Obama trying to undermine Israel's government. It is a mistake to have an early election because it works to fulfill the agenda of external forces trying to dethrone Israel's government.
32. #21 you idiot
Gabor ,   Budapest, Hungary   (10.12.12)
Syria was shooting Israel since 1948. Just a few days after the 1967 victory, the Knesset voted and declared to give back all the captured territories in exchange for peace. All of our neighbours rejected the idea of peace. Their hatred is the cause of the problems in the Middle East. Look at what your beloved Syrians are doing to each other. Look at what the Arabs are teaching to their children in school about Jews. And this has been going on for more than 60 years now. Meanwhile Israel became a super power in medicine, military, IT & technology. Yes-yes, I know your reply to this, it is all because of the US taxpayers' money and the jews stole it and blablabla :). Idiot.
33. Here we again see how God refused the plan to give up Golan!
Jouko ,   Finland   (10.12.12)
God of Israel is so wonderful!

37. @14: You Mean Raomney, Don't You
emanon ,   USA   (10.12.12)
After all, Romney announced that he's committed to a two state solution. He just does not advertise that it will be at the expense of Israel so he can make more money on arab oil in the US.
38. if there is truth to any of this
marv   (10.12.12)
if there is any truth to this, then israel is finished and jews might as well leave israel to the arabs to screw it up again and turn it into the bog it was. If bibi as head of likud along with that brownnoser lauder decided to return vital real estate to assad, there is no point continuing in israel. Dismantle the state and give it to abbas and haniyeh and go live in miami. What a bunch of bloody brownnosers. You sicken me all of you, ashkenazi, baidetz, barak, weasels who didn't learn from the holocaust, nothing, zero
39. perfidous bibi
meyer ,   bat ayin   (10.12.12)
if true, this story is most disturbing.
40. every PM other than sharon agreed to give up the Golan
zionist forever   (10.12.12)
Since oslo every single PM other than Sharon have all been willing to do a deal on the Golan and some even came close to signing a deal. Rabin & Peres both wanted to give it up In his first term Bibi made no secret of the fact he was holding negotiations with Assad. Barak & Olmert also came close to doing a deal whereby Israel would give it all in exchange for a toilet paper treaty. This is because everybody is trying to put off dealing with the palestinian front as long as they can because there are lots of complicated and many politically unpopular issues that need resolving. If the PM does a deal with Syria which just involves the Golan then they can have done their bit for peace making and then pass on the palestinian problem to the next PM whilst this one collects their Nobel Prize on the White House Lawn.
41. What a surprise
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (10.12.12)
having seen the polling for his idea that he was going to cede The Golan and his cor vote collapsing. Netanyahu has now decided to deny that he was about to cede The Golan. As I said this was a statement for the International community in an attempt to raise funds for the election. It wasn't meant for domestic consumption in Israel
42. mr prime minister...
les ,   canada   (10.12.12)
it is your duty and obligation to israel, and the jews world wide to speak up, and confirm or deny this. if this is true, you would be the biggesr traitor israel ever had! but i do not believe it for a second, unless you admit to it. PLEASE, SPEAK NOW!!!
43. Bullshyte.Political media con-job tp put the criminal olmert

44. YNET publication of this AFTER Olmert/livni/lapid/mofaz
hippocrates ,   earth   (10.12.12)
left-center bloc unity party announced. Goals: 1) to delegitimize Bibi to hurt his chances of re election. 2)To make his base less likely to vote for him, or at all 3) to strengthen the new left-center party Israels media like ynet has it's favorite- much like us media favors obama

BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (10.12.12)
Syiria lost the Golan after she attacked Israel, in violation if Ubternational Law. 63% of American favor Israel, like it or not “Israeli Weapons Systems Employed by the U.S.” Most of the money is spent in the USA on American Products, Manufactured by American's, there is no such thing as Free Money, this money creates jobs for American worker’s, try working, you have a chance of earning some of it In return America receives the following: “BREITBARTTV – ISRAELI SYSTEMS USED BY AMERICA” Israeli Weapons Systems Employed by the U.S. Israel, a small nation surrounded by enemies many times her size, has long been known as a great innovator of cutting-edge military technology at affordable costs. Over the years, Israel's ingenuity has helped it win many battles and protect the lives of its soldiers. American interest in Israeli systems is growing as the U.S. military looks for ways to decrease its spending and minimize casualties during wartime. "Made in Israel" solutions are now meeting some of America's biggest needs. ITALD (Improved Tactical Air Launched Decoy) These jet powered, unpiloted decoys look and maneuver like an airplane. They are used to confuse enemy radar and draw the fire away from the piloted aircraft. Therefore, piloted aircraft can perform their missions under "safer" conditions because enemy radar attention is diverted and the enemy's air defense power is degraded. Earlier unpowered glider versions of the ITALD were used extensively during the initial stages of the Gulf War and in Bosnia. Reactive Armor Tiles These tiles, developed by the IDF after the Yom Kippur War, protect its tanks and the soldiers operating them. These tiles overlay the tank's armor and have explosives embedded in them that explode outward when hit by missiles. The explosion destroys and repels the incoming missile before it penetrates the tank's main armor. During the 1982 Lebanon war, not a single Israeli tank equipped with these tiles was lost to enemy fire. The Army has received funds to outfit several hundred armored vehicles used in peacekeeping or urban combat operations with the protective tile sets. Litening The Litening is a navigation and targeting device that enables aircraft to fly and target in bad weather and at night. The Litening transforms older planes into round-the-clock fighters. The Litening is equipped with two cameras. One uses heat sensors to identify targets at night and during bad weather. A second provides powerful images from long-range, and therefore safer, distances during the day. The U.S. Air National Guard, a quarter of whose fleet cannot fly at night, has purchased the Litening to enhance the capabilities of its F-16s. The Litening is also being purchased by the U.S. Marine Corps. The Popeye/ HAVE NAP AGM-142 The HAVE NAP AGM-142, known as the Popeye, is used to destroy targets, such as concrete military bunkers, with exceptional precision from great distances. It is the only air-to-ground missile that can be retargeted after launch. The United States uses the Popeye on B-52 bombers. A small .- UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) The introduction of the UAV has been one of the most important factors enabling the United States to fight effective air wars with a minimum of casualties. Today, the United States has one of the largest fleets of Israeli-made UAVs. UAVs are used to identify targets and assess bomb damage without putting pilots at risk. During the Gulf War, as well as in Kosovo, Israeli-made Pioneer and Hunter UAVs were used to stop hard-to-detect targets such as missile launchers, artillery units and command and control bunkers. This information enabled commanders to target their aircraft to destroy these sites. Not enough space to post It all here, since I’m only allowed 4,000 characters The rest of the information is at “Breitbart-Israel Weapon Systems, Google & wake up!!
48. It must be true! Betrayal is what Israeli's recognize and
Edithann ,   USA   (10.12.12)
know..that's why all the consternation.... Get over it, and you know it's all true...live with it! TATA
49. Just Yediot making up a story again
Ilan   (10.12.12)
That is the great thing about running a newspaper you can run campaigns for political candidates like Olmert without having to pass him more envelopes of money. Of course what little credence people give to the stories is lost, but as long as there are advertisers
50. End the lunacy of Israeli retreat forever.
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.12.12)
The vast patriotic majority of Israel must demand a permanent, complete end to the lunacy of Israeli retreat. It is responsible for virtually all Israel's worst problems. Rather than contemplate retreat; Israel's policy should be to permanently retake all our lands we foolishly abandoned.
51. saved again by the arabs from our stupid politicians.
ralph   (10.12.12)
52. will not we live in permanent wars
sam ,   colorado-USA   (10.12.12)
I agree with Netanyahu, Barak,away from the tension and come to think calmly and can't prudence no matter how long it takes to retain the Golan Heights forever and will not we live in permanent wars,I think if Assad fell will prevail peace in the region
53. Bologne! "Sources" trying to undermine Bibi
Isabella1709 ,   Tampa USA   (10.12.12)
Everyone knows Barak's trips to the US are all about getting support for another bid for the office of BM. Obama wants a compliant Israel if he is reelected, then he can complete the Islamic takeover of the middle east.
54. #34 BLIND &* STUPID OBSERVER
BEN JABO (MACHAL() ,   ISRAEL   (10.12.12)
Syria attacked & lost, starting in 1948. We claim Golan by rights of conquest They should have started their wars in the first place
55. #24 BM
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (10.12.12)
Name the sources, if you can, anonymous sources are worth the paper they're not written on That's what we call gossip, not facts
56. THIS STORY IS PURE BS
stude ham   (10.12.12)
coming on the eve of an election it is a story clearly designed to discredit netanyahu... please do tell us why these 'secrets' are being revealed just at this moment. as the BO campaign lurches to its slow death... it is obvious that the BO wants BIBI taken down also. that is the most obvious reason for propagating such incredible misinformation on the golan issue.
57. You folks never listen...
bbsnews ,   santa Fe, NM   (10.12.12)
The Golan heights is going back to Syria including Shebaa Farms. It can be no other way because the land is stolen. It does not and never will belong to Israel. It's changed though. No longer is Israel supported in the US except by a few religious zealots that in the end seek the Jews destruction as much as any Islamist worth their salt. And some of you silly folks still follow around those destructive forces like little puppy dogs. President Obama is the only hope you folks have against the next four years.
58. If true, this is insanity. The northern border of Israel
Rivkah   (10.12.12)
would be indefensible. Attacks on Israel anciently and in modern times have often been from the North. Has Bibi lost his marbles? Take him to a doctor, quick and have him committed.
59. actually FALSE
jack bauer   (10.12.12)
60. #58: Rivkah
Israeli 2   (10.12.12)
This article is honestly a lie. I know that previous leaders have done the unthinkable and the result is catastrophic but not under Bibi's leadership. #13 said it best.
