1. The Arab lobby
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A/Israel   (03.12.13)
This Arab lobby is killing America. They are now everywhere. Al Jazeera buying newspapers, Arab movies going to Hollywood and now... Arab politicians... When will this have an end?
2. #1
Trev ,   Canada   (03.12.13)
You sound as crazy as the people who complain about the Jewish lobby.
3. to 2
Ahmet ,   Istanbul, Turkey   (03.12.13)
Yes Sarah, you are right. We are very sorry for you. It looks that you no longer will be able to act like spoiled children. What a tragedy?
4. Jim Zogby Not Unhappy
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (03.12.13)
The visit to Ramallah and Amman may spark an idea or two. For Sarah B - Get over it. Tell Murdoch at Fox News to dump his Saudi partner.
5. To #'s 2 & 3!!!
Jake Stone ,   USA   (03.12.13)
I wonder what godless heathens', like yourselves, will be saying after Israel serves-up the Muslims' another butt-whipping in the, soon, coming wars? Israel and God's Jerusalem are eternal--period! And, down-deep you clowns' know it's true...and, it's just eating you all up! I love watching that tiny nation, Israel, be a proverbial thorn in the Muslim side! As long as Israel sits where they are, just proves that Muhammed and his false religion is a lie concocted in the halls of Hell, where the false prophet currently resides! May the true-God of Israel...always protect His chosen people, the descendants' of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (who was named Israel)!!!

Friend of Israel ,   londonderry nireland   (03.12.13)
you are 100% correct. 3 cheers for Israel
7. Dear Jake #5
Jarda ,   Czech Republic   (03.12.13)
What did your god in Auschwitz?
8. Arab "Leaders"?
Dan ,   Florida - Tel Aviv   (03.12.13)
These so called Arab "leaders" are in it for their own interests and not to bring peace to the Middle East. Had they really wanted peace they would first start with ending the virulent hate spewed over all Arab media. Next they would educate Arabs with books other than the Koran. They would acknowledge that Sharia Law is medieval barbarism and Western Law and real courts are what the Arabs need to adhere to. They must acknowledge that Honor Killings are MURDER punishable by the death penalty and screaming "Allah Akbar" before killing children and innocents is a crime against humanity not supported by any religion anywhere on the planet nor by God Himself. Then...and only then...can they talk to the President.
9. Do AA expect reward for their vote is destruction of Israel
Alan ,   SA   (03.12.13)
10. Ahmet from Turkey
David Israel ,   New York, USA   (03.12.13)
If there is one country and a leader who is acting like a spoiled child in the world that is Turkey and Recep Tayyip Erdogan. He thinks he is the new Sultan and Hslife while his FM Davutoglu thinks he is Sokullu Mehmet Pasa.
11. AA interpretation of "peace process" is for O to help Pals
Alan ,   SA   (03.12.13)
destroy Israel and establish an ARAB state from the River to the Sea... like Salma writes here. Well boys and girls ,I dont think Israel will be destroyed by ANYONE ever. Not even by Obama!
12. arab-americans spit on America ! Jews love America !
(03.12.13)
13. To 8 Arab Americans
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (03.12.13)
They are leaders of Arab American groups. Just as we have Irish American groups and Jewish American groups like AIPAC, there are Arab American groups. Are you wanting to outlaw AIPAC and B'Nai B'rit and dump the First Amendment to outlaw the AAI? What have you got against General Abizaid (former CentCom) or Senator George Mitchell or the current Transportation Secretary?
14. Obama receives final instructions
steve from raleigh   (03.12.13)
Blame the Jews. For everything. Storm out and demand more concessions which he knows are silly.
15. # 11 Alan, true
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (03.12.13)
obama's feet of clay are being exposed while he flits about trying to become relevant once more. His popularity is plummeting even as we post.
16. # 12 YES YES YES!!
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (03.12.13)
arab americans can go back to their arab nations.. They aren't welcome to over throw our politics or our commitment to Israel. Hell, their being HERE tells you they abhor their own self eliminating 'nations of death'.
17. Arabs
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.12.13)
they want obama to give them a state on a silver platter. arabs think that obama can create states. they have bought into the propaganda that obama is omnipotent. obama can make the life of israel difficult, but he cannot create states. obama cannot even stop the slaughter of christians in the muslim world. nor can he stop the slaughter of civilians in syria. obama cannot even stop cyberattacks on the us mainland from china.
18. 1 when will this have an end
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.12.13)
this will have an end when the american people wake up. america should not want to become like france or the rest of europe where police are afraid to enter certain neighbourhoods with the result that the far right is rising and the far left is rising, to the satisfaction of those who believe in the dialectics of history.
19. 13, Mark
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.12.13)
stop manipulating. no other group engages in continual acts of terror worldwide. muslims have changed the lives of people worldwide. their acts of terror have deprived people not only of life, but also of liberty. unfortunately, israelis are all too used to live in a fortress. however, the rest of the world migh get tired of muslim terror. just ask those who live in the volga region or the suburbs and certain cities of france.
20. 10
Salamon men do fer   (03.12.13)
I would say more. Erdogan and Davudoglu are like karagoz and hacivat. They put a show and fight themselves silly. Also, they make people laugh at them.
21. 1 Arab Lobby
k ,   US   (03.12.13)
in addition the Arabs have all the oil, and the people say the Jews control the world, that oil that is needed to keep the world going is what really controls the world
22. The US has only one real friend in the ME
Get Real ,   UK   (03.12.13)
'US commitments to Palestinians in Gaza' ! Perhaps he should go to Gaza and speak to Hamas, but don't forget the candies. Then perhaps to Lebanon and speak to Hezbollah?
23. 19 Cipora's Bigotry
Mark of Lewiston ,   USA   (03.13.13)
Your bigotry is in full view. Geroge Mitchell and Jim Zogby and John Abizaid and the current US Secretary of Transportation are not terrorists, nor have they ever been. You give Judaism a more rotten image than Sarah B does.
24. Obama want himas the Champion of idea
AlbertoGA ,   St.George,USA   (03.13.13)
The Main thing Obama does not understand is that Israel was a gift from G-D. And ... it isnot for SALE. In this case (# 1) you are on the money. Dear Utopians dream to cut Israel as a vulgar Salami, good luck ! Shalom from the USA
