1. How could that be that...
Jules   (12.11.12)
... the FM employees had refused to follow the ministerial order ???
2. Abbas condemns himself
artcohn ,   Palo Alto USA   (12.11.12)
If you read Abbas' speeches. If you read the content and maps of the school books that he approves. If you pay attention to his support of Hamas and its missile attacks on Israel. Then you will see that it is Abbas who condemns himself. The Israel Foreign Ministry's plan is to make the rest of the world, and its leaders pay attention. I hope that they succeed!
3. Finally Israel tell the truth
Chris ,   Austria   (12.11.12)
I don't see any difference between 2 terrorists - Abbas and Mashaal. People in Europe don't understand why Israel have talks with them.
4. phony PR is NOT going to make any difference
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (12.11.12)
When will Israelis finally figure out that ACTIONS are what people look at, NOT words. Israel can post a picture of Abbas with the devil himself and most of the world will just write it off as Israeli propaganda and look at Israel's ACTIONS in the WB. If Israelis do not want to be seen as the "bad guys" QUIT acting like "bad guys."
5. About time..
Malone ,   Hfx   (12.11.12)
Israel is way behind in the propaganda game.
6. Abbas and Mashaal
Anshel ,   Canada   (12.11.12)
FM Lieberman is absolutely right, to keep playing football with Abbas is fruitless and in long term dangerous for Israel. Time to call the spade , a spade. Abbas is running around the capitals of the world, seeking recognition, while he is endorsing hateful speeches by Mashaal, chief of the Hamas politburo, calling for destruction of Israel as a Jewish state. The act is itself in the contradiction of UN charter. These men are thugs and if Abbas refuses to disassociate himself from those hateful statements, then treat him as a pariah and not a person who is a partner for peace process.
7. There goes the credibility of "Jewish Groups".
jackflash   (12.11.12)
European "Jewish Groups" publishing Liebermann's propaganda in "their name"? Obviously Avigdor know only to well that nobody believes a word Israel says. But he's forgetting that folks also know that "Jewish Groups" have always been propaganda outlets for Israel.
8. Abbas is the most dangerous terrorist of all.
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.11.12)
World famous Holocaust Denier Abbas presides over a terrorist organization, the P.A., which is every bit as committed to Israel's destruction as Hamas. To pretend Abbas is our "peace partner" is ludicrous idiocy. Abbas is the most dangerous terrorist of all. That is how Israel must begin to deal with him and his despicable P.A.
9. That was so hard?! Whole bogus "Palestinians" are as easy to
tom ,   tel aviv   (12.11.12)
refute...
10. Media campaign
Richard Levy ,   Pompano Beach Flori   (12.11.12)
It seems that Israel always comes up short in the media whenever issues occur between the Palestinians and Israel. It is about time that a concerted effort be launched to counter biased media reporting This should be an on goung process.
11. Lieberman is right
Brod ,   USA   (12.11.12)
Lieberman is right on this. Israelis must be united in fighting against the dark forces hell bent on the destruction of Israel. Israel must counter the venom of Hitlerism that Mashaal is inflaming against Israel in the region and the world.
12. Do you really hope
Jarda ,   Czech Republic   (12.11.12)
that the World will believe to Lieberman?
13. Spyguy
Non-Jew ,   England   (12.11.12)
Well, can you tell me ONE significant action that the palestinians have made towards peace? And I don't count anything involving signing a bit of paper and then reneging on it later.
14. Lieberman...
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.11.12)
stop wasting tax payers money and give a rise to the nurses!
15. Desperate acts of a desperate criminal regime
Ramzi Jaber ,   Palestine   (12.11.12)
16. So embarrassed......
Rachel Rabin ,   TA, Israel   (12.11.12)
What happened to my beautiful country! WE must build the State of Palestine otherwise Israel disappears.
17. #4 it's the other way
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (12.11.12)
Start acting like the bad guy to look like the good guy. Good Guy Obama massacres hundreds of civilians using his drones but says he wants peace and love. Good Guy Abbas refuses to negotiate, violates the Oslo Accords, but says he wants peace and love. Bad Guy Netanyahu stops Jewish building, uses an Iron Fist against Jews and encourages Arab building. If Netanyahu wants to be a good guy he should start massive Jewish building in Judea and Samaria, revoke Abbas VIP card and invite Mashaal to Jerusalem for peace talks.
18. how embarrassing-
Mari   (12.11.12)
hope Liebermann just for once can get it right- he is such an embarrassment to Israel. How can an intelligent people have such a klutz and schmuck as a Foreign Minister? And by badmouthing others he hopes to look better himself? it doesn't work that way Bubbi.
19. Avi, you need help ,...
spliy ,   US   (12.11.12)
20. 12, will they believe to you with a name
(12.11.12)
imitating a stomach germ? I highly doubt it.
21. 7 So, what's your problem jackfish? Who
Jackie   (12.11.12)
do you think cares what European anti-Semites and anti-Israelis believe? Israel has all the rights and mostly the sacred duty to keep on building and serving its people. Even freed Israeli territories like the West Bank.
22. Maricska, it ain't gonna work your way
Mark   (12.11.12)
either. So, let Liberman do what he has to do and you keep on mopping your floors.
