31. Let's hope Kerry has learned Rabin's Contlur-for-Peace of
N.L.Katz ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (01.02.14)
5 Oct 1995: (1) Jerusalem will remain united under Israel's sovereignty and will also include Giv'at Zeev and Ma'aleh Adumim suburbs. (2) All Jewish settlement blocs will be incorporated into Israel's sovereign territory, including Gush Qatif in Gaza. (3) The Jordan Valley, in the widest meaning of the term, will also remain under Israel's sovereignty. (4) The future Palestinian Arab state will not be a regular one in that it will be fully de-militarized, its airspace will be totally under Israel's control as will its boundaries and all of its border passes: land, sea and air. Mr. Rabin was dubbed, worldwide, a price-of-peace; one who combined his and his people's desire for peace with a pragmatic approach that took into consideration Israel's most vital security and national interest. Will Kerry learn from Rabin...??
32. it was clear from the beginning......
fcd ,   jerusalem   (01.02.14)
the man is ONLY interested in the Nobel peace Prize.
33. Kerry does nothing for anyone. His
DT ,   TA Israel   (01.02.14)
whole life is centered on "John Kerry" and how he can advance his own personal standings. Watch for him to throw Israel under the bus if his advancement is threatened.
34. dear Israel
rm ,   NL Amsterdam   (01.02.14)
Peace is a much more desirable strategic weapon than any fancy weapon you can come up with. Eternally ruling/occupying another people is a continuiing receipt for disaster. You should be grateful that the US does not give up on you when it has every reason to do so. And please stop ridicilous comments like this that Kerry is only in it for the Nobel Prize and so on and so forth...it's way off.
35. Of course it's about the Nobel prize.
tiki ,   belgium   (01.02.14)
Kerry wants to be No. 1 once in his life.
36. Yes and also wants to be in hot seat in WH next term
Martin SA   (01.02.14)
He needs to work closer with bipartisan senate and congress and represent the thrust of core American interests ie secure Israel to secure America against brutal Islam faction inside and outside USA. That brave approach could earn to be considered for the hot spot.
37. Who is paying for all his trips - the poor taxed Americans !
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (01.02.14)
38. Give Kerry a bunch of bananas and he will be happy
(01.02.14)
he wants a job in the podium. he catches anything given to him,as we can notice.
39. Kerry's Personal Goals Irrelevant
J ,   Tel Aviv   (01.02.14)
The conflict has to be solved because the current situation is not sustainable. I support anyone that moves us forward and all naysayers can keep their heads in the ground.
40. Give him the prize and send him packing
(01.02.14)
He is doing it for his atheist immortal soul. Eyeing the WH, and protecting Obama's backside.
41. I'm back to my old pathetic broken record Obama, ICC, UNSC
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.02.14)
42. More likely...Novel Prize...
Roland ,   London England   (01.02.14)
How to Get nowhere fast ..Profuse with new ideas incorporating Obama's. Still clutching at straws. or talking to a brick wall.
43. #29
Harold ,   USA   (01.02.14)
You mean John Kerry who represents the most powerful nation on earth is a minnow. I can only tell you to contact the nearest mental hospital. Sharks don't beg for US taxpasyers' welfare checks.
44. Kerry seeking presidency in 2016 on the back of Israel
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.02.14)
45. Seems to me that Syria, Lebanon more of a problem than
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (01.02.14)
little old Israel and West Bank / Gaza. Even Egypt more of a problem. And now Russia entering into the terrorist field. Wow, the world full of terrorists and guerrillas. These guys would be bored without their weapons. Probably mental deficiencies.
46. To: No. 43
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.02.14)
Hey, you of the great memory since 1947 -- what happened to the most powerful nation on earth in Somalia? Remember that one? When a handful of barefoot warlords using vintage World War I Garand rifles and a few rusty old RPG launchers turned back the full faith and credit of the United States armed forces? Minnow? Hardly! Try guppy.
47. Follow Obama precedent. Give Kerry prize for doing nothing.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.02.14)
48. #43 Harold - No, I'm talking about you
