A ,   Belgium   (09.19.13)
Either pound it into your enemies until they accept it, or kill them when they refuse. Democracy is great, isn't it Benazzi? How many guns do YOU have at home?
32. # 5 'Stow awayAKA 'steal pals have no legal rights to Israel
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (09.19.13)
In less than ten years not one pal will remain in Israel. Israel is the official, " Homeland for The Jewish People." BUILDING MORE AND FASTER!!!

BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (09.19.13)
please don't ignore the obvious, sooo many Muslim nations at war with their 'leadership' AKA state anti semitic, thieves and criminals. Ah! There is light at the end of the tunnel. Notice not ONE pro pal poster can or will defend, explain or even justify the phenomenon. We should count our blessings. Not one non Muslim is doing the fighting.

39. Mr. Haber's problem
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (09.19.13)
It is not " Only a few people in the country have actually read the Oslo agreement and are familiar with its details." We read then and are VERY familiar with the details. Those details are the problem - we said then and were how terrible the entire idea was and were told that we were paranoid. Are we really paranoid? We predicted the rocket attacks, the bombings, the thefts, etc. etc. and were told that would never happen and that we could go in an reverse the situation - you yourself said those exact words. No it is not us that don't know the details - it is you and your ivory tower that ignores all facts that is the problem
40. Good, sobering article.
Rafi ,   US   (09.19.13)
Israel's biggest sin leading to the failure of Oslo, once Rabin was murdered, and up thru the 2000 second intifada - - was that it built more settlement homes on the West Bank under Barak in the 1990's than under any previous govt.
41. He can't repent
dave ,   safet israel   (09.20.13)
No portion the world to come.
42. Peace ?
vmdeeb ,   Somewhere USA   (09.21.13)
There will never be peace for Israelis as long as they occupy Arab land. The only solution is the creation of non sectarian state where Muslims, Christians and Jews can co-exist
43. No repentance from a leftist
Philippe ,   Raanana   (09.21.13)
Haber keeps on babbling , you were and you are the same crass ignorant;you have not a single regret of your actions, you have not a single compassion for 1500 israelis dead and 4,000 wounded, you do not have the slightest hindsight despite 20 years of total failure, you do not know how deep is the european hatred towards the mere existence of Israel as the reborn jewish nation, you still praise of pair of clueless amateurs Rabin-Peres as calibers when they are a bunch of losers, you still gorget that the Oslo process was ratified thanks to the corruption of 2 Tsomet traitors, and you still think that Itzhak Amir was the one who derailed the whole oslo ! Very convenient cover-up Mr Haber ! Oslo was a terrible mistake , an amteurish bet by worn-out politicians .Oslo was announced as Trojan trap by all neutral observers and you still clings on to your failure.Now you try deperately to boast that the arab turmoil around Israel was a side-effect of Oslo ? Grotesque Mr haber ; The arab turmoil is alimented by the rich-poor arab rift, the shiite expansion, the USa global weakening . Mr Haber you and your ilk have been long ago disposed in the trashbin of history.Pull the flush rope Mr Haber.
44. author is either a dangerous fool, or naive dreamer
martin ,   uk   (09.21.13)
i beg you all to discover the truth behind the disastrous for israel oslo accords. all the norwegians involved were 100% israel haters and long for a secular democratic state of palestine to replace israel. this is fact. all these non apologetic israeli communists do not have the decency to apologise for the non compliance by their arab friends. nor the slaughter of israeli victims for peace. the only peace the arabs want is piece by piece by piece. shame upon the israeli legal system for not putting thgese treasonous people on trial - including the president peres
45. Funny, we have put one relatively small criminal President
tom ,   tel aviv   (09.22.13)
behind bars, while elevating a much larger criminal into the post of President. Ying/Yang (in reverse?)
46. #20, I am wrong, democracy is never Peace in Middle East
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (09.22.13)
but I am frequently wrong Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Sudan, Tunisia.........perfect examples of democracy creating havoc in Muslim countries and with neighbors
