How sad the world dont see the fact on the ground - when would they wake up? - You only shake hand with the one who realy want to shake hand with you - The Palestinian? - Come on - give me a break!

kerry will push towards olmert on west bank and international peacekeepers on jordan valley.And bibi will outsource jordan valley to american observers and get close to olmert, maybe 5% instead of olmert's 2% with west bank linked to gaza under palestine sovereignty. Bibi cannot take pressure, is a royal crybaby. kerry will not attack iran or help israel attack iran so bibi is under misimpression. One can only say that the jews have been damaged severely by years of pogrommes and holocaust. How else can you explain peres, bibi, livni, olmert, ramon, beilin and ben ami, sher, all of haaretz from top to bottom, shalom, german, gal on, yechaimovitch. These collection of cowards in one breath is unbelievable. After the holocaust, israel is relying on someone else for its own security???!! Likud has to get rid of bibi and fast. The concessions he talks about make action against abbbas harder to take if he is a country, and his border then becomes the line for new terror rockets against israel which he will deny as usual that he has anything to do with. This marks the end of israel, with a palestine from jordan river to themediterranean and a skeletal jewish dzimmi province of israel led by rear enders and you can guess who I am talking about. This is the end of israel!

As one American official recently described, a "meeting of old acquaintances, albeit ones that don't like or trust each other very much." This statements accurately describe the current peace process. No one needs to reinvent the wheel everyone knows what a final peace agreement will look like. Maps have already been established. It's time for action. There is no need to stall.

What exactly are Abbas' "tough choices".?

what the majority in Israel brought him to power for. All for a little personnal honor, he betrays us.

I know many think the Bible is full of myths and fairy tales. Nonetheless, American leaders like to refer to it. I like to look up the context of a verse or passage they are quoting in the Hebrew Bible. This one, "lasting peace" comes from the book of Jeremiah. The prophet is complaining to God that the false prophets are assuring his fellow Israelites there will be lasting peace when in reality, the sword of the Babylonians was at Israel's throat: But, "Ah, Lord GOD!" I said, "Look, the prophets are telling them, 'You will not see the sword nor will you have famine, but I will give you lasting peace in this place.'" Then the LORD said to me, "The prophets are prophesying falsehood in My name. I have neither sent them nor commanded them nor spoken to them; they are prophesying to you a false vision, divination, futility and the deception of their own minds. (Jeremiah chapter 14)

Three that I can think of right off the bat are...will he accept Israel as a Jewish state, will he accept less territory than he was offered by Olmert, and finally, will he accept a demilitarized state? Also, don't be surprised if he ends up compromising on the Temple Mount also, despite all the belligerent squawking they do about it now.

For ''He who curses Israel will be cursed !'' The USA is a broken nation in every sense : morally, financially etc. Its a shame, but me too, I look forward to the day when the world will get rid of the broken USA !

Maybe the time has come for lasting peace, but then Kerry is forcing Israel to "negotiate" with the wrong person. Whatever Abbas agrees is invalid according to PLO Charter that can only be amended by the PNC. Even if Abbas managed to overcome the PLO Charter, he cannot speak for the far more popular Hamas. The only question is whether Netanyahu is a spineless loser, or he is collaborating with the PLO.

Time has come for the USA to stop interfering in Israel's internal matters! Time has come for Kerry and Obama to fix their own problems! Time has come for Israel to wake up and throw gutless cowards out of government!!!

The Palis have no interest in peace.

. . . not a damn thing was accomplished.

Not just this prime minister, though it is this prime minister. All too many Jews both in Israel and America trust the United States. Jews believe the United States is looking out for Israel's best interests. America is not looking out for Israel's best interests. America and her leaders are looking out for what Americans "perceive" to be in America's best interests; this includes Israel ceding land to peoples who they know are dedicated to Israel's destruction. This means Israel must return to what Abba Eban called our "Auschwitz borders" or close to them. What will it take for Israel's leaders and for so many Jews to understand President Obama and other elected American leaders (elected and supported by the American people) are not looking out for Israel's best interests? Will we have to learn a hard and very painful and costly lesson? Time will tell.

Let us not kid ourselves. Israel's current leaders are absolute cowards. Only an absolute coward would unleash 104 murderous terrorists against his own people! We need to save ourselves. We need a HUGE patriotic uprising. We need to make plans to get a million good sane Jews to surround the Knesset and end the monstrous evil sickness once and for all!

Abbas will demand all the settlements built after 67 be dismantled, or given to the Palesw refugees ( all of them who desire to move there vs Israel itself). He will have an army in the W Bk..as will Hamas which hasnt agreed to anything and wont. Hez wants 500,000 Arabs to relocate to Israel. Israel will lose its water and air rights. Iran might build a large base in the W. Bk.and Gaza. Israel surrounded, will be pecked to its demise....Europes and US Jews will be pressured by its own, like JST. Bibi will retire in disgrace and move to Florida..and watch as his country is dismantled. The Arabs and Reich have won guys......in 1967, Golda asked for 50,000 graves...then they had Dayan. Now they have Livni... get it.

Is Hamas considered a non-entity by Kerry ? How come that peace talks can be imagined without Gaza?

it will never happen , end of story

1) You cannot negotiate with somebody who declares their objetive as your destruction (PA charter). This is similar to a case where the allies in WWII were to negotiate with Hitlel. Dear Adolf..etc..... 2) Any document signed between the parties is not valid because Arabs have shown to be unreliable and incapable of having a stable government (Egypt, Syria, Lybia, Lebanon etc.) or are ruled by intimidation (Jordan etc.)

What else does he have to offer?

Relocate Al Aqsa Mosque somewhere else stone by stone. We have the technology to do it. Jerusalem is the undivided and eternal capital of Israel. Everybody better get used to this fact ASAP.

The word "kerry" in Hebrew means "nocturnal emission" . It is a form of impurity. It comes as no surprise that a man with this name has coerced the Israeli government to commit the impure act of releasing murderers.

Bibi knows nothing outside Israels unilaterally declared borders belongs to Israel so if he start another war rather than face up to Israels obligation to leave the occupied territories. The old Fool knows Obama has had enough of him and will not lift a finger to help him if the he doesn't do as he is told. With the fluid situation in Egypt, Syria and Lebanon Bibi knows without the US in his corner his goose is cooked.

Judea and Samaria have belonged to Jews for more than 3,500 years. Bibi is obliged to claim them for Israel. But everything Lydia writes is a reversal of the truth.

- when HASHEM is the Peacemaker !. The Selfdeceivers lofty imaginations seems to be without end. Only HASHEM can help those Neurotics. Arn.Sweden.

according to Arabs, all of Israel is occupied territory. how long before the rockets start flying from WB ?

Those three "tough choices" you mentioned are easily resolved. One stern look from Kerry to Livni and another phone call from Obama to Bibi and voila! Israel has become Palestine. Only what Chaim from Israel suggested must be implemented IMMEDIATELY. Sharon thought he was G-d. So does Bibi. They mess with G-d's land...see where they will end up?

250UN resolutions says the WB is still occupied territory today. Israel's own self imposed obligation ie UN242 recognized and acknowledged the WB as occupied territory and that it is not a part of the Jewish State. Every thing Chaim says is BS

land WITHIN Israels unilaterally declared borders is occupied legitimately under the UN181.
