1. If Israel is not a Jewish land they have no right to it
Zionist Leader ,   are the problem   (01.18.14)
If Israel only belongs to the Jews because the UN decided so, then Jews illegally threw the Arabs out of the land and are living on stolen land. If, however, the leaders in Israel will have the courage to ADMIT that Israel belongs to Jews because our TORAH says so and will act accordingly, then the Jews have all the right to the entire land. Momentarily, Israel's secular leaders claim the land of Israel because the UN gave it to them. Thus they legally have no right ousting the Arabs. The only ones who have the right to the land are the religious Jews.
2. Palestinian Wall of Lies!!!!!!!!!
Benny ,   Iran   (01.18.14)
Israel is the rightful owner of 75% of what is now Jordan under the Palestinian Mandate (1920 San Remo). 51 countries voted in favor of allocating to the Jews their rightful National Home. The Lion's share created Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia. The lies the Muslims want to create by re-writing history is "SICK". In 1948, the Arabs attacked Israel & regained a foothold in Jerusalem & the West Bank & abandoned it. There was no desire for Jerusalem. It lay dormant. No one asked for it to be capital of anything. The invented people said nothing. When Israel was again threatened in 1967, the Jews won back Jerusalem & the West Bank. Israel conquered back its own territory from Jordan, Egypt & Syria. You cannot re-gift Jewish land to Arab mobs who know nothing but mayhem, lies & deception. Look at the nations under Islam, the so-called religion of peace. Utter destruction!
3. All you Arabs and the rest of the Jew hating world........
Rodney ,   CT. SA   (01.18.14)
As difficult as it may be, find yourselves a bible and read Psalm 83 and you will find out exactly what is awaiting those who think they can treat Israel the way they are. God is not mocked. Curse Israel and you will be cursed. Bless Israel and you will be blessed. God bless Israel.
4. The headline and the first sentence ....
Arnold-Canada ,   Montreal   (01.18.14)
put out the truth. "MUSLIM NATIONS urged the international community...." There are at least 20 muslim nations. Muslim nations that adhere to strict muslim laws. Now before they became muslim nations they were nations of other or no religion. Islam took them over by force. Israel wants to be the Jewish homeland. Just the 1 not 20.
5. Al Quds does not exist
CJK   (01.18.14)
the arab muslims conquered the holy city of jerusalem, the city of david, and subsequently re-named it "al quds." the arab muslims waged wars of conquest for a thousand years, on three continents, converting the populations to islam and colonising the lands. the holy city of jerusalem was founded by david, king of the israelites. the holy temple in jerusalem was built by his son, solomon. jerusalem was the capital of the jewish kingdom and has been the seat of jewish life for thousands of years. neither exile nor genocide nor wars of extermination have stopped jewish determination to build the jewish homeland in the sovereign jewish state of israel and her eternal capital, jerusalem.
6. it is not their business
CJK   (01.18.14)
jews do not covet mecca or medina or the vatican or any city that is not jewish. the muslims covet the holy city of jerusalem in a continued attempt to expand their imperial supremacist religious idealogy and stemp out other religions. they practice taqqiya to advance jihad and they practice jihad to advance islamic conquest, be it by terror or by blackmail.
7. Islamic-cult-followers wil always...
Beary White ,   Norway   (01.18.14)
..make hell on earth. The Islamic-cult--demagogy should be banned from the face of the earth. It is based on a complete falsum and its output is a conglomerate of death, murder and violence.
8. to Rodney
Dik ,   Spijkenisse   (01.18.14)
I fully agree with you. The prophet Zachariah in chapter 12:2 Jerusalem being a heavy burdenstone and a cup of trembling for all nations, which we see daily now in the news. We pray for the Peace of Jerusalem. Shalom from Holland
9. #1 the conundrum
sharpshin ,   USA   (01.18.14)
Israel can either be a democracy for all who live there or it can be a religious community that claims a state. You say the "only ones who have the right to the land are the religious Jews," because their holy tracts say so. But the only ones who believe that are religious Jews, hearkening back to the glory days of a Bronze Age kingdom. That was 2,077 years ago. I perhaps needn't point out that 99.4 percent of the world's population does not agree with this view. Or that in 2,077 years, quite a lot happened politically, religiously and practically in the Mid East that Zionists want to discount and dismiss. I'm not sure I see how a desire to recreate a Bronze Age in the 21st century translates into automatic "ownership" of that land and eviction of those considered it theirs for a millenia or two.
10. Israel the ONLY Jewish nation on earth
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (01.19.14)
and will stay the only Jewish Nation on earth, by G-d! It amuses me when Muslims try and take over any part of Israel. They are so desperate and ignorant, they think every inch of ground belongs to them, it doesn't and, Israel will be here when most Muslim nation return to their original sand dunes. KEEP BUILDING !!!
11. Sorry, but no
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.19.14)
Israel reacquired nonsovereign Judea and Samaria in the course of fighting a defensive war against Jordan in 1967 -- a war which Jordan was urged by Israel not to launch. But Jordan did attack Israel, Israel prevailed, and the rest is history. Judea and Samaria are Israel's to settle, retain and even annex. If the international community wishes to rewrite the rules of military engagement, they can do so at their own expense. Israel is not the international community's crash test dummy. See how far you get convincing the French to give Alsace ad Lorraine back to Germany. See how far you get convincing the United States to restore Arizona, New Mexico and California to Mexico. See how far you get convincing the Poles to restore East Prussia and the Polish Corridor to Germany. Lead by example, why don't they?
