31. From Mission to Embassy - Get Yours Today by Mail Order
ltrail ,   United States   (02.08.13)
Embassy of the State of Palestine? Huh? The so-called palestinians continue to make believe, as they play in their doll house. Pretension helps, I suppose, when you want to wish upon a star.
32. Yiamass bree Stavroo,Efxaristo! Now I'm setting upthe table
Obsessive ,   Turkey   (02.08.13)
Ferries are sailing between Israel,Turkey and Turkish Cyprus. (Haifa, Iskenderun, Gazimağusa-Famagusta) No need to panic. All the continent need non-Russian cheaper gas (costly than Algeria & Qatar, costly to liquefy and dry) No one is indispensable in this life. Only Peace... Better for everyone. You can’t go back, Ever. You can’t change the past. It just is. . . . This is our destiny. Not yours....
33. recognition - Czechs
Esther ,   Prague, Czech Rep   (02.08.13)
AFP is wrong - the Czech Republic has not recognized the Palestinian State, it voted against it last November as the only EU country!
34. Fun revenge
Suggestion   (02.09.13)
Name the streets in E1 and other settlements next to Jerusalem for the European countries recognizing Palestine as a state.
35. @1 Yes Cyprus is Israel's Friend
sarita montiel ,   Israel   (02.09.13)
Cyprus has: stopped and inspected countless ships suspected of attempting to bring in weapons from Iran into Gaza. Cyprus was: the FIRST to respond in December 2010 during the Carmel Fire Disaster. Cyprus sent its ENTIRE airborne fire fighting flight thereby leaving itself open to NOT being able to fight a potential fire disaster in its own nation because its fire fighting air born fleet was in Israel for five days! Cyprus and Israel have very good diplomatic and business relations. I trust Cyprus and without criticizing Israel I will say that if the Cypriot Government has made this decision then it is a HUGE heads up for my Israeli Government to rethink its position regarding the Palestinian Government.

the sooner you realize that adults and not children, read your comments and ideas,written in chicken english, the better. thinking in your mother tongue, then translating your thought into english, plays havoc on your expected end result. ouch!
37. To KEREN IL-BR # 8
Daud Maher ,   Ramallah   (02.09.13)
You are so wrong, Keren. This land belongs to the Jews. We, aboroginals, lost the war so it is our right as the defeated ones to remain here and fight for our rights as the native did in the US. It would be wonderful it Jordan accepted us, but they will not. It will be even better if the US could absorb all of us. But this will not happen. I have news for you, baby: I will be your neighbour in Tel Aviv soon than you think. How do you say " I demand my rights" in Hebrew?
38. # 30..More is coming ..so get ready to experience..
