1. DUH !!!! it's only taken you 10 yrs + to figure this out?
Rafi ,   US   (11.13.13)
2. Sen. Ed Royce is absolutely right.
David ,   Montreal, Canada   (11.13.13)
3. Solar and lunar eclipses on Jewish Holy Days in2014 and 2015
Rivkah   (11.13.13)
are signs in the heavens that war is coming and Israel will win and vastly increase its territory, but the USA will collapse economically after the war, Scriptures indicates, since the USA has to be the notable horn of Daniel that breaks into four parts after Media-Persia (Iraq-Iran) are subdued in the latter days. The only times in the last thousand years that there have been solar and lunar eclipses on Jewish Holy Days, five in a row, was in 1492-1493 when Columbus discovered America when the Jews were cast out of Spain. It happened again in 1948-1949 when the Jews were again a nation after a 2000+ year disapora. Then again in 1967-1968 when the Jew regained Jerusalem. So expect something wonderful to happen after the coming war in the next two years. Great is HaShem, Adonai, Yahovah, Yahoshua!
4. Even the dogs in the street know a bad deal spells war

5. The sooner we hit Iran the BETTER.........
Nachman ,   Israel   (11.13.13)
Just do it.
6. the shia terror regime's nuclear weapons program
CJK   (11.13.13)
the shia terror regime's nuclear weapons program must be dismantled completely. if the shia terror regime refuses to dismantle its nuclear weapons program peacefully, then foreign military intervention must be used. under no circumstances can the shia terror regime be allowed to keep its nuclear weapons program. netanyahu is correct in pointing out that all other issues must be put on the back burner for now.
7. Settlements harms no one
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (11.13.13)

Arn. ,   Sweden.   (11.13.13)
10. The Israeli Government
Michael ,   Haifa   (11.13.13)
Children in an average kindergarten show greater competency in handling everyday situations and crises than the current Israeli government.
11. Bogus Bibi
David ,   Judea   (11.13.13)
More and more it is clear that Bibi is a weak and ineffective leader , who only knows how to lower himself in the eyes of the nations.
12. Bad deal means war
Harold ,   USA   (11.13.13)
We've listening to this broken record from Netanyahu since the day he took office. Why don't he do it, distruct the Iranian nuclear sites and solve this conflict.
13. " “We welcome the news that Prime Minister Netanyahu ordered
A ,   Belgium   (11.13.13)
the Housing Ministry to stop the planning tenders". The proper translation: "We welcome the news that PM Netanyahu has again cowardly bowed before the great and mighty Oblabla, while trying to explain that the building of Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria creates friction with the international community especially the masters in charge, the United States, who PM Netanyahu has not the courage to stand up to and say ..."this is OUR country, we will build as much as we want and where we want in it." We appreciate PM Netanyahus' cowardice and expect to see more terrorists released soon.
14. Kerry Admin. Nuclear deal in simple talk. Stop refining Pet
Adi ,   Zurich   (11.13.13)
Kerry Admin. Nuclear deal in simple talk. Stop refining Petrol. But we leave your refineries intact. Utterly and totally incomprehensible. This was the talk today in Zurich
15. Surgical strike now or all out war with a nuclear Iran......
Decision is EASY   (11.13.13)
Which is better?
16. What Netanyahu means to say is...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (11.13.13)
....that all sovereign and independent nations on this earth - be them ancient or new, authentic or artificial, rich or poor, developed or underdeveloped, advanced or primitive, democratic or despotic, republican or monarchic, have a God given right to exercise full independence and sovereignty in their land including building and constructing private homes and cities - EXCEPT for Israel which has to sacrifice its own existence, independence and sovereignty in order to convince the "world community" that Iranians cannot get their hands on nuclear weapons in order to kill 6 million Jews in Israel and millions of people across the Middle East, Europe, America and the rest of the world. It seems that in Netanyahu's brilliant mind, Jews have to make a choice between living and constructing cities in their own and ancient homeland or stopping the Iranians from killing 6 million Jews in Israel with Iranian nuclear weapons. It's a matter of fact that Israel can BOTH exercise full independence and sovereignty, go on building wherever it wishes in Judea and Samaria, expel the Arabs, annex Judea, Samaria and Gaza, AND annihilate Iran's nuclear installations. You create leverage by changing the reality on the ground. And what happens Bibi when/if the next negotiations fail and Iran has already developed the bomb within a few months? Then you would have halted construction of Jewish cities and failed to stop Iran! Bibi - you're a complete moron! The EU does neither intend to stop the Iranian nuclear program nor allow Israel to build in Judea and Samaria. Your flummery is inane and unpractical. The longer you wait Mr Netanyahu the more difficult it gets to stop Iran. Yes the sanctions cripple Iran's economy but that doesn't stop Ayatollah Ali Khamenei from developing the bomb since Iran is a despotic theocracy ruled by religious and fanatical nutcases living with an apocalyptic ideological world view. Menachem Begin had the balls to annex Jerusalem and Golan despite massive US pressure. Back then Israel was considerably weaker. Today Israel is considerably stronger. You can't even allow Jews to build a new city. Bibi you are sacrificing Israel. NO OTHER COUNTRY would make such a self sacrifice.
17. Atomic Iran will threaten gulf oil. The US $ will collapse.
Adi ,   Zurich   (11.13.13)
Atomic Iran will threaten gulf oil. The US $ will collapse. It is utter lunacy to leave Iran with the tools and infrastructure to make an atomic weapon. No one here in Zurich banking industry understands why Kerry administration is working for the Iranian interests
18. Bad deal
Farrokh ,   IRAN,usa   (11.13.13)
It is a very very bad deal please attack mr.netenyahu would love to see that hhhhhhhha.
19. he always claims the same BS
bernard ross   (11.13.13)
20. I'm sick of BB's BS
bernard ross   (11.13.13)
21. To nr 18 - Are you challenging a nuclear power?
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (11.13.13)
Israel's air force is considerably larger and considerably more modern, advanced and considerably better equipped and trained than the Iranian air force which consists of old Soviet Russian junk from the 1970s. Israeli fighter jets can reach Tunisia and Sicily. IAF can easily reach Iran. The geographical distance to Iran is considerably shorter. Israel has the 4th largest military air force in the world. Our air force is considerably larger than the British, French and German air forces separately. We have nuclear subs as well. We can reach Iran from the sea... Oh - and Israel in fact HAS nukes - hundreds of them. Iran doesn't have nukes yet, and will never have if Israel stops you. So go ahead and laugh. It seems anti-Semites have a sincere death wish. It is my sincere belief that anti-Semitism can be fought with war and violence only.
22. #16 Alexander the great!
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (11.14.13)
A question with the hope it genartes flourished response from you is Begin had the emunah to annex the land of his forefathers, what do you say of BB who ceded the first land of the first Jew (not-to-mention voting over&over&over&over again and ordering those sworn to protect you to instead destroy those he serves) to those that come to kill you
23. #21 Alexander-where have you been? Yasher Koach
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (11.14.13)
Have I been blinded to you? A star is born to me at least! Yes GOI should defend itself (those it serves), but it so pathetic that it denies its sovereignty and even wags the dog with the nuclear Persian ruse (regardless of authenticity) to destroy their own.
24. Disgusting rubbish from Bibi.
Chaim ,   Israel   (11.14.13)
Bibi betrays the Likud Constitution, everything Likud stands for and everything the vast majority of Israel votes for. Jews have every right to build in ALL of Judea and Samaria. It has nothing to do with Iran. This is disgusting rubbish from Iran. Moreover, when push comes to shove, you can bet Israel will face Iran alone.
25. To nr 22 - A thousand thanks
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (11.14.13)
Very kind of you. What can I say of Bibi? I was convinced that he was a great nationalist with a keen intellect- now I'm not so sure. I have been convinced for long that Bibi had something up his sleeve, but the more I analyze his statements, I don't really think he is as clever as people thought he is. I really hope there is an alternative to Bibi. The question is who. Lieberman? Danny Danon? Naftali Bennett? I believe (if I'm not mistaken) that Bibi even had a heated argument decades ago - either with his father Ben Zion or with Shamir (I'm not sure which of them). Bibi insisted that diplomacy and bending to international pressure is just a temporary tactic to implement the real plan later, but as someone pointed out to him, sacrificing too much would mean losing your influence and your leverage and destroying one's principles. Sure Bibi is a great orator and speaker and he has a good education - agreed - but I can honestly say that I don't like Bibi anymore. Not attacking Iran, releasing prisoners, accepting the Hamas rocket arsenal and the Hezbollah rocket arsenal, acting in the very last minute to stop rockets from Gaza when Hamas pounded Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, halting construction, agreeing to an Arab state in our land, refusing to expel the Arabs and refusing to annex our lands, his icecream and bed, and luxury habits, including Tzipi Livni in this government, including Ehud Barak in the previous government, the insolence of his wife, appeasing Obama - I mean it's a bit too much. Bibi has done too much damage to Israel. I can forgive him but I can't tolerate him as a person or as a PM. It seems Bibi and Obama have at least one thing in common: they're good at talking but poor at taking action.
26. Still relying on chances with Iran?
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (11.14.13)
Choice not chances should determine Israel's destiny.
27. 25 Alexander,Let the results speak...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (11.14.13)
Bibi is a master juggler who managed to avoid until now a hazardous war,with drilled but not motivated IDF soldiers, Only when Judaism will be an important part of the Israeli education,Israel will have motivated IDF soldiers -with G-D's help-able to defeat it's enemies. Shalom.
28. #18 I would like to see it too! A whole bunch of
A ,   Belgium   (11.14.13)
diaperhead Iranians floating around in a radioactive cloud, just like monkeys floating around in outer space!
29. Irrational, does not make sense.
Michael Pielet ,   Israel   (11.14.13)
Contrast with, why would israel who is in a conflict with its mortal enemy iran, allow the creation of an arab terrorist state that would be aligned with and controlled by the Islamic terrorist state of Iran to be located in Judea and Samaria at the gates of Jerusalem and Gush Dan? Why? It does not make sense to bring your mortal enemy closer.
