1. A Palestinian State is suicidal...
Jay Abouaf ,   Jaffa Israel   (05.07.13)
.... for everyone involved. Anyone with a tiny bit of common sense and even wisdom, just need look around...at Syria and Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Chad, Libya and Iraq, Iran and Turkey, Tunisia, Sudan, Pakistan.....Yemen. "He who wishes a Palestinian State wishes evil."
2. Israeli majority must DEMAND end to 2 State Final Solution.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.07.13)
Excellent article. We've been down this evil road before. Oslo. It resulted in almost 900 murdered Israeli and more than 14,000 maimed. However, Israel's enemies and false friends are always game to try again. This time must be different. This time the vast sane patriotic majority of Israel must unequivocally DEMAND the absolute end of the monstrous Two State Final Solution.
3. forgetting one important ingredient for the peace soup
tiki ,   belgium   (05.07.13)
Clinton is coming back! He didn't succeed the first, second, third, forth etc. time, but this time the gloves will come of and the thumbscrews will be put on, mixed with the obligatory smiles, compliments & photo op's. Arafat was just an ugly 'reformed terrorist but Abbas is the man one can do business with. Mr. Simpatico himself. Elegant & moderate, all blend in one person....in short, a treasure. And Netanyahu? Well, Netanyahu is that stubborn Israeli/ Jewish troublemaker with whom the US president still has a bone to pick and decided that NOW it's payback time, like we all knew was due any moment.
4. "irrigated with Jewish blood"
Cameron ,   USA   (05.07.13)
What YNET posting would be complete without a good measure of exceedingly over-kill sniveling about the Yanks. Doom itself coming over the hilltop escorted by US Pres. Obama. Woe, woe.
5. Oslo is DEAD in the water ! Finally SHOVE
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (05.07.13)
it, you American WIMPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6. Are there people left in Israel, who are willing
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (05.07.13)
to defend the land and the ONE state of Israel...regardless of the new onslaught of Obamas agents ????
7. Unfortunately Israel has not woken up yet, not fully.
tom ,   tel aviv   (05.07.13)
There will be multiple, public shrill voices proclaiming "Peace, Peace around the corner" when the next, unavoidable visit of this Circus Macabre comes to town. Same old horses, same old, tired elephants with doves of peace flying over their heads will woe small children& their parents with promises of "Good Times"; you only have to purchase a ticket, swap some land, make a gesture of good will, open up gates of prisons.....and die.
8. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ! STOP TO IMPOSE
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (05.07.13)
THAT ROTTEN GARBAGE ON ISRAEL...MR. HUSSEIN OBAMA AND UNDERLING KERRY !
9. German neo-Hebrew Georg Bombach stole West Bank
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (05.08.13)
...fair and square, and no one is going to give it back if he can help it. Obama and Kerry will prove Israel not serious about peace, and will impose UNSC '67 borders in 2014.
10. #4. The responsible party is the U.S. Jewry
Tom W ,   USA   (05.08.13)
Without the support of 80% American Leftist Jews and their money-bag the Obama-nightmare would never exist. For the "multikultist" "diversity", PC obsessed Marxist Jewish elite Israel is liability as many of prominent American Jews had proclaimed several times: "Creation of Israel was (and is) a mistake". (Zinn, T. Kushner, Chomsky etc.) Now they do their best to destroy Israel by "thousand cuts".
11. #9 not me
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (05.08.13)
12. Haetzni: my barometer
Michael ,   Haifa   (05.08.13)
whenever i read Haetzni whinging here, I know that something good is happening
13. Security Considerations Essential
Zechariah   (05.08.13)
Israel will maintain security and Immigration control and the Arabs will benefit protected by the criminal insanity and war criminal opportunism rife in the Islamic world .
14. Poor soul Haetzni is having terrible time
David ,   TA   (05.08.13)
like many of his fellow die hard delusional hard lines when its time to face reality. Netanyahu didn't take no hit because he was in the Sharon government or the Bar Ilan speech, he lost his popularity and standing because he turned Israel into a military fort leaning on the shoulders of the middle class who is collapsing under the burden. Yesh Atid and Habait Hayehudi talked exactly about it in the last elections with promise to fix it and shift the burden to be distributed evenly and in more just way. Nothing about the nonsense Haetzni is fantasizing about. In addition, in the tradition of those delusional people there is a lot of ranting and complaining with a shred of an idea as to solutions. In short waste of time and space,
15. bibi is and has always been yellow to the bone
mislon   (05.08.13)
only because of olmert and livni, did bibi gain a new life. israelis are sick of him, his insecurity, his waffling. Bennett, yaalon, lapid and feiglin will run for the leadership. Bibi is finished and israel wants to see the back of him.
16. Most Israelis would take peace but it's not going to happen
Sam ,   Canada   (05.08.13)
At best, we will see some enhanced truce. Israeli and Palestinian positions on Jerusalem and refugees alone make a peace agreement impossible. There is no threat of a bi-national state because Israel is not giving Palestinians citizenship. This stupid threat makes it sound like Israel would agree to any Palestinian demand. That is certainly not going to happen.
17. Borders must be based on Balfour Dec - not any '67 fiction.
BUTSeriously ,   Sydney   (05.08.13)
18. Two State Concept Not a Reality
ltrail ,   United States   (05.08.13)
Chiam. You are right again. The soverign State of Israel should not even consider a 2 state final solution. Let the so-called palestinians see their state in an Arab land. PERIOD. As an example, there is sufficient land in Jordan for their home. Let them develop the East bank of the Jordan as Israel has developed the West bank.
19. Coexsistance
Moshe ,   Paris   (05.08.13)
It will happen when the lion lies next to the lamb
20. #17 But seriously.... get serious
On the Balcony ,   Akko   (05.08.13)
Borders must be baseed on Balfour Declaration? the Balfour Declaration did not envisage an independent state of Israel. How could it since Balfour was issued before the Ottoman Empire was destroyed, after the French and British had already agreed to divy up the mid-east and create a confederation of Arab states, and before there was a Palestinian Mandate with definite borders. And of course, the declaration puts the protection of Arab-Palestinian rights before that of a creating a Jewish Homeland. ButSeriously... what in the world are you thinking?
21. #18 There already ARE two states
On the Balcony ,   Akko   (05.08.13)
Somehow commentators appear to believe that if they pretend the wall in front of their noses does not exist then they can simpy walk through it --and then they wonder why their noses are bleeding. The State of Palestine exists. It is a fait accompli. And it makes op-ed pieces like this on all the more surreal.
22. Settlements spit in the face of democracy
On the Balcony ,   Akko   (05.08.13)
The world’s nations an the organizations they created to represent them have ALL designated what Israel call’s “disputed territory” as the State of Palestine. So much for respect for the will of the majority. Israel is spitting in the face of the world, why shouldn’t it spit back?
23. #22. Judea and Samaria are 100% legal..
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.08.13)
Do you ever tire of posting putrid rubbish? For obvious reasons, "Palestinians" would have no trouble passing any anti-Israel resolution at the U.N. The U.N. also condemned Zionism as racism. The condemnation of Judea and Samaria as "illegal" is entirely political and has nothing to do with law.
24. #21. Judea/Samaria are real. Palestine is fictional.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.08.13)
Palestine is entirely fictional. It's economy if entirely fictional; consisting only of redistribution of aid. Your posts are surreal. What really does exist are the thriving Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria. They have real economies and are real in every way. Palestine is forever fictional.
25. #14. Israeli retreat the cause of all problems..
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.08.13)
Hatetzni isn't responsible for the Oslo Tragedy which cost Israel almost 900 murdered and more than 14,000 maimed. Like virtually all of Israel's problems, it was a direct result of Israeli retreat. Haetzni is a voice of wisdom. The deluded fools are the leftists, who have never been correct on any major issue since Israel was founded.
26. #12. Leftists infallibly wrong on every major issue.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.08.13)
The Israeli left is the reverse barometer. Leftists have never been correct on any major issue since Israel was founded. A mere few months ago, idiotic leftist leaders urged Israel to cede the Golan!!! From fleeing South Lebanon to Disengagement to freeing terrorists to...everything, the Israeli left is infallibly wrong.
27. Chaim
Michael ,   Haifa   (05.08.13)
..and Chaim is fallibly and rabidly right
28. #11, Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, thank you
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (05.08.13)
29. #19
Linichka ,   Gdynia, Poland   (05.08.13)
And when lobsters whistle.
30. Incredible
Moshiach ,   Roanoke USA   (05.08.13)
