31. Coexist : superman
Mike   (06.17.13)
The 2 people have to learn to coexist there is no way out, because the other group will not just magically disappear. Watch the new superman movie to understand why.
32. Jeopardizing long term future
N. B. ,   TA   (06.17.13)
Bennet is jeopardizing the future of this country. As long as the Palestinians won't have their state, the people in the middle east won't have peace. It's just as clear as that. You need proof for this hypothesis? Just open your history books, start reading from 1948 onwards. Sure, the religious right wing, e.g. living in Hebron, doesn't give a damn about their own children's safety and therefore certainly less than nothing regarding other people's (YOUR!) children - but the rest of smart and secular Israel does feel a responsibility towards their loved ones and therefor will never accept ignorant, stupid and short-term policies. At least that's what I hope...
33. Ae We Deaf?
Dan ,   florida - Tel Aviv   (06.17.13)
FIVE times the so-called Palestinians were offered a state and they rejected it. Can we finally sat "We hear you now". Move them all to Gaza or Jordan.
34. To: No. 21
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.17.13)
Do you really think that Israel cares? You are from Germany. How much attention did your beloved fatherland pay to the rights of the Jews? Who DID live there for centuries! The Arabs, I remind you, are relatively recent occupants -- pushed there by the British who wanted to secure the oil discovered in Mesopotamia and Saudi Arabia. Examine Germany's morality before you question mine. Did the Jews in Germany ever commit suicide bombings? Did they ever slit the throats of a sleeping family of five? Did they ever slaughter dozens of schoolchildren? Shut up. The Arabs started, and lost, six wars. There are consequences, and those consequences accrue to the ersatz "Palestinians" just as much as they accrue to anyone else. When is Germany planning to honor all those fully paid-up life insurance policies taken out by desperate Jews in the 1930s? When is Germany planning to restore stolen Jewish-owned art to the surviving members of those Jewish families? Please. No more loose talk about "trampling other peoples' rights." Germany still has much to do to right the ongoing wrongs perpetrated against the Jews. Why don't you focus on that?
35. If Israel annexes area C
(06.17.13)
then the Israelis are in great danger because the thousands of kms of borders that it will automatically generate between C and A/B will be undefendable !!! Israelis will pay a heavy price !
36. Nice
Roman   (06.17.13)
Dead end, pointless - some words that satisfied more than caviar cocktail – no more music will be heard in thee....all yummy finished. Amen!
37. #6 why???
Mother ,   IL   (06.17.13)
Why are you always hating on American Jews? Do you really expect American citizens to just pack up and move to Israel only for the sake of their religion? We tried that and my children ended up suffering the most. We could not afford to match the quality of life we lead in US. So yes I chose to live in US so they can have gymnastics and singing lessons and a backyard and still be raised with Jewish beliefs. Sue me!
38. ...and he is right..!!!!!Build non stop...
Anna M Sedda ,   Rome-Italy   (06.17.13)
At least someone that tell the truth at it is....
39. t0 6
salma   (06.17.13)
as we are both to destroy is easier and faster
40. Hard boiled for 30 minutes
Gideon Reader   (06.17.13)
Eggs. Huehos, Baytzim; boiled until they have reached the consistancy of cast, polished brass. Jumbo sized. Adon Bennett,....you are THE MAN!!
41. Look at Syria to see how multi-ethnic arab states are!
Mark ,   London, UK   (06.17.13)
42. #29 David
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (06.17.13)
Are you from England? Did you use the term "Nazi"? How about Cameron's illegal bombardment of Libya to install English-friendly Jihadis who sell you cheap oil? It looked a lot like Rotterdam or Coventry 1940, only worse. Were the dead Libyan children really worth it? And what about Cameron's new plan, to flood Syria with weapons so that the Jihadis can ethnically cleanse Syria and Lebanon of Christians, Druze, Alawi and Shi'ite? What is wrong with you people?
43. The idea of Naftali Bennett is pointless
Dan   (06.17.13)
What does this person stand for except the idea of complete greed, 'might is right' and eternal conflict – and, therefore, the death of Israel. He could have chosen to have a purpose, to try for a lasting peace that would give Israel a chance; instead he's a child clutching the toy someone else made and gave him, screaming 'mine mine mine!' He's pointless, and will soon fade away.
44. Worldwide BDS would be the only possible response
Giora Me'ir   (06.17.13)
if Bennett's words are indeed policy. No two state? No one state? Then pariah status.
45. #28 how about
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (06.17.13)
How about the following solution that was proven successful everywhere in the world. Sunni Muslims living in Israel (including Judea and Samaria) move to any one of the 20 Sunni Muslim countries in the Middle East. In exchange, Israel accepts one Christian or Druze. The "Palestinians" get to live in a country where they have the same culture, language and religion and safe from the evil Israeli apartheid. The Christian or Druze is saved from losing all his property and probably his life at the hands of his friendly Sunni neighbors.
46. #8 Well, pussycat, if you hadn't noticed lately
A ,   Belgium   (06.17.13)
no one is really paying "palestinians" much attention lately. With Syria cannaibalizing itself, Turkey on the verge of being the next moslem country to destroy itself, Egypt tottering on revolution...again, Jordan flexing its tiny muscles against Syria, Russia and the US glaring at each other...gee, who has time for "palestinians" and their constant whining and begging for handouts. I'm sure the pictures of "summer camp for future terrorists" in gaza didn't impress too many people, including your Qatari sugar daddies. If you get a tablespoon of Negev sand for a "palestinian" state, you should thank your alla and your crooked, corrupt leaders for their generosity, because you aren't going to get much more than that. Now go play in your litterbox.
47. Dave Clark, British expansionist
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (06.17.13)
Clarke, replace "Arab" for "Aborigines" and you see what your great-grandparents wrought as they swarmed into and plundered Australia to create an – "imperialist and expansionist vision of an ethnically pure Aborigine free authoritarian and theocratic Australia..." Time for a cuppa tea?
48. Bertil@creson. Com
Dov ben David ,   Eilat, Israel   (06.17.13)
To all of you who dream about one state solution. What country in the worl would support Israel? Dont make fools out of yourselfs.
49. Some REALITY for Sarah
spyguy ,   Seattle   (06.17.13)
On a global basis, Israel is powerless. Although it delusionally feels it can defy the world, the reality is, if Israel makes too many people angry, not even the US (which is also losing power) will be able to protect Israel and without US protection Israel will be brutally defeated. The bottom line is if Israelis want to have a country in a few years they need to stop being belligerent idiots and NEGOTIATE a reasonable solution. BUT Israelis have to understand that the non-Jews west of the Jordan River are NOT, repeat NOT, going anywhere, so pick either two-state or one state, those are you ONLY TWO OPTIONS. Israel has NO OTHER REALISTIC OPTIONS.
50. Truth must and shall prevail
Steve Love ,   USA   (06.17.13)
If you stand up for the truth and speak the truth "HaShem" will never let you down. Spread the truth through the word of "Yahweh" and be like Joshua, Phinehas, and Elihu. Israelites do not hate any one. Israelites do not want any bloodshed. Israelites love every one, but truth must and shall prevail. We need more people like "Bennet" to stand up for "God Almighty" God bless Bennet!!!
51. Great man
Richard ,   The Hague Holland   (06.17.13)
This great man understands! G-d bless him! אם ישראל חי

Dov ben David ,   Eilat, Israel   (06.17.13)
To all of you who dream about one state solution. What country in the worl would support Israel? Dont make fools out of yourselfs.
53. bennets speech
jan ,   jerusalem, israel   (06.17.13)
Bravo for Mr. Bennett! May his words come true! If we had more affordable housing, it wouldn't be so terribly expensive to buy or rent in Israel! Concerning a two state solution, We have the State Of Israel, with OUR boundaries-which really are MUCH MORE than what we presently possess, if the arabs wants a state, let THEM go to Uganda and build their own state there!
54. #28 The Solution...
Lynx ,   Palestine   (06.17.13)
The Solution is Palestine from River to Sea. This is what your Polish darling Bennett is asking for he. He will get it !
55. The Eternal Kingdom of Israel
Moshiach ,   soon to be Israel   (06.17.13)
May God Bless you Mr Bennet..There will be no 2 state solution ..Israel is one !!! My people are One !!! May Hashem bless the very ground you walk on !!!
56. #26 and #46
Pal ,   Palestine   (06.17.13)
pitty you guys, how patheic. We, Palestinians, are here to stay in our homeland, Palestine, whether you liked it or not...

Pal ,   Palestine   (06.17.13)
Keep dreaming!!!
58. Bennett's scheme can work ...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (06.17.13)
under ONE condition. israel must be ruled under JEWISH law. To make this feasible,Israel ought to be invincible. Thanks to a well prepared army for an eventual war.However,that is not enough. Let us learn something from Islam who conquered the world thanks to her steadfast belief in G-D. To reach our goal,all Israelis should evaluate the benefits of being united and unbeatable ,by serving ONE G-D,one law ,the Tora.
59. One-state-solution
Kiel Hesselmann ,   Denmark   (06.17.13)
It makes no sense to continue the old discussion about a one-state-solution. The Pal-Arabs have long ago forfeit their claim to Samaria and Judea – and for that matter the Gaza strip. Their administration of the land lack in every aspect: economically, political, educational, and transparent governance. Anyway, I’m up for a 1-state-solution – namely a state consisting of Israel proper including Judea and Samaria and Gaza. - Eretz Yisrael will never be on sale.
60. #49 Israel controls the territory+will do as it sees fit
Sam ,   Canada   (06.17.13)
Israel is not giving Palestinians a 1 state solution. Why? Because Israel says so. Israel is also not giving a 2 state solution unless the solution is agreeable to Israel. Why? Because Israel says so. Palestinian supporters should get it out of their heads that they will tell Israel what to do. They have ZERO power to do so. Either Palestinians negotiate a 2 state solution satisfactory to Israel or they will have the status quo. Why?Because Israel has all the power and it says so.
