Devorah   (03.21.13)
So, Israel is responsible for the tyrannical, corrupt mess in Gaza? Really? And giving the "palestinians" land will turn Gaza into Utopia? And Haniyeh, Meshaal, Hamas, et al will turn into pixies who sprinkle love dust on everyone? BHO, the prophets warned about tricksters like you.

37. # 12 Never will be a pal state thank G-d.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.21.13)
obama doesn't speak for Israel he is not King there or any place else on earth. In fact, he is a subject of the Saudi King to whom he bows. ( that practice went out with Thomas Jefferson but, don't tell obama the Kenyan born idiot. )
38. Steal this ! obama's getting zip as his payment for being
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.21.13)
the stooge of the King of Arabia....
39. question to Obama
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.21.13)
why does he surround himself with inexperienced, unqualified advisors? what qualifications does valerie jarette have in foreign affairs or in national security to sit two seats from yaalon?! obama decided to have an administration where the blind lead the blind, and the results are crystal clear. or maybe, he just decided to have a one man fits all administration of little emperor obama.
40. PERHAPS I WAS MISTAKEN
DA RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED RAP HOUSE   (03.21.13)
I was mistaken by insultingly suggesting that President Obama is an enemy of Israel ,I truly believe he is well-meaning .But... he tries to please both sides in the israeli /palestinian conflict and that is impossible to achieve.
41. TWILIGHT??? How rude...
Colorado ,   USA   (03.21.13)
Little boy Obama insults the leadership of Israel by telling the young people, in effect: "The old guys are almost dead, then you can decide for yourselves, and follow ME and MY IDEAS ..." It is absolutely unconscionable that he should use that particular leverage and insult ALL the men and women who brought Israel into being in the face of genocide, and who continue to lead Israel in the face of desired genocide. He teaches the young people to disregard their parents--to dishonor their fathers and mothers. What a sickening jerk. At least you now can see what Obama is really all about. It's ALL about him--24/7. Thanks to Netanyahu and Peres for maintaining grace and humanity in the face of the new smiley dictator wolf in American sheepskin. President Peres has been around for a long time, but he sure still knows how to bring REASON and TRUTH to the day (at the luncheon), despite the ultimate insult from Obama that this fine man, along with Netanyahu, will die of old age--and he can't wait. Obama can hardly hold open his eyes during this wonderful speech. What a horror.
42. #31 You couldn't be more wrong...
Colorado ,   USA   (03.21.13)
Obama has NO INTENTION of leaving office. Wait and see. Appreciate the attempt to calm us though, after such an insulting performance in his speech to the students.
43. Stop the occupation of Native American
jason white ,   afula,israel   (03.21.13)
land! Look at it through the eyes of Native Americans. Foreigners taking over 99% of their land. Does b.o. want us to look at it through the eyes of palis that want every Jew dead? Let the palis look at the 22 arab countries and all the land. Live us Jews alone in our holy Jewish homeland. It is our land and no one else has any claim on it!
44. R I S K + ? Displacement Take the Risk
Martin ,   SA   (03.21.13)
R I S K + ? Displacement Take the Risk. Please define risk Pres Obama. 10,000 Gaza displaced 10,000 Americans were displaced. Now only 500,000. No Risks. 500,000 from NY to Alaska maybe, For me Obama no problem. Did Abass offer to change his and map today. No occupation?/ O did I get your drift?
45. FIne pals give back all the US money they've used for terror
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (03.21.13)

46. # 13 No name

51. With all due respect.
Ivri ,   Yerushalaim   (03.21.13)
Once you move your jewish tuches from the pastoral Cherry Hill USA, to Israel,become a citizen,THEN...ONLY THEN...You will have the right to lob your 2cents worth of verbiage against us "Spoiled Israelis". Untill then...continue assimilating and maybe in the future you will be called Cook or something,and there will be no more jews in your family,so you will not have to be so agitated as you seem to be now with your bretheren. Typical ' YEHUDON GALUTI"
52. No Due Respect
ASTROANUT ,   SC, USA   (03.21.13)
Dear Ivri, the nudnik from Cherry Hill, NJ, is antithetical to we Conservative Republican Jews in the US. You are considerate to offer him "due respect." Mr. Cherry Hill: stop drooling over your false god. And go to shul once in a while. Am Yisrael Chai.
53. Obama's speech
David Clarke ,   Liverpool, England   (03.21.13)
As a proud liberal European of British and Irish Nationality and as someone who admires both the Jewish People and the Arab People for their incalculable contribution to Humanity I loved Obama's speech, he is absolutely right, the rights of both people, Palestinian Arabs and Jews to live on the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean sea, Israel/Palestine, is incontrovertible, no one has the right to remove or expel anybody from their homeland. Israel Is going nowhere and will always be the sovereign state and ancestral homeland of the Jewish People, the Palestinians are also going nowhere either from the homeland that they have lived in for over 1500 years, and have every right to form a state on that land existing in peace with Israel, which as a middle Eastern country must integrate itself into the region, that means ending the occupation on the basis of a two-state solution and in return receiving recognition and normalized political and economic relations with the Arab and wider Muslim world. The vast majority of decent Israelis and Palestinians believe in this principle and it must be believed in and not be destroyed by those who would seek to destroy it.

58. This clown hasn't changed his tune or planned deceit!!!
Jake Stone ,   USA   (03.21.13)
"The Palestinian people's right to self-determination and justice must ... be recognized…" “Palestinians have a right to be a free people in their own land…" ‘…put yourselves in Palestinian people's shoes.' Israel don't be fooled by his slick persona!!!
59. israel will need to clean-off the stench after he leaves!!!
Taz Man ,   USA   (03.21.13)
60. I don't think anymore that Obama is an enemy of the Jews
Yossef   (03.21.13)
