First, Israel does not include the West Bank. We have never annexed it; it is occupied territory. Our legal border is the Green Line. Creating a Palestinian state there does not divide Israel. Second, if Israel has really come to depend on this tiny area for economic survival it is far more incompetent and far less tech-based than I thought.

we all have our differences we either stay at war and all be miserable or work out living together it's time to wake up people

Most of our trade with the East is that we buy from them...most of our trade with the West is that they buy from us...try doing a little arithmetic, ORA before you let your fantasies run away with you

First, Dan, what you are calling the "West Bank" is in reality our ancient land of Judea and Samaria.. We did not annex the "West Bank.. We deliberated Our over 3000 years old Biblical land of Judea & Samaria over defensive wars..... It is the land where our great Jewish history was made & where our Forefathers Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the sons of their son's dwelled, multiplied and built a Nation and were laid to "rest"... The same land, Israel regained over 3 defensive wars and scores of terror acts in the recent history ... Who do you think you are to determine Israel's "legal" borders? And Yes, the tiny Israel has the right and the duty to own, prosper and defend every inch of its sovereign land, especially the so-called West Bank... To the "victors", always go the "spoils"...Get a clue, Dan...

Go tell that to the ICJ when the Palestinians haul your proverbial a** before the court, that 250UN resolutions against Israel illegal occupation, is totally wrong!

First they steal Palestinian land and resources oil, water, gas etc then they destroy the Palestinian infrastructure, Olive trees, road,water treatment plant, flour mill, hospital, schools, airport, Ports even chicken coops, egg farms etc leaving the Palestinian dependent on the land thieves and mass murderers. If the Palestinians once again become self sufficient they have no need for the Israeli crazies.

Go back to sleep, Joe...

how good it will be, considering a world's economy without Jews influence

Israel supplies water, electricity, gasoline, medical care, medical supplies and training, essential aid, employment and for decades encouraged economic cooperation. Israel has done more for the Palestinians than any Arab/Muslim country. In return, Israel receives terror attacks.

Why should any Christian democratic country celebrate your jewish holidays? If you want to celebrate them, go to Israel, and STAY THERE!

I don't make laws. If Israel hasn't annexed the West Bank or Samaria and Judea or Toyland and Fantasyland or whatever you choose to call these bits of real estate, then they aren't legally part of Israel. Further, Israel has no right to them. If you rely on some old book like the Bible, well, everyone including Muslims has a book. All we have is international law and recognition, and Israel will never be allowed to have the West Bank. Cling to your fantasy if you want to doom Israel to destruction. Fortunately your kind of views are losing ground and soon there will be a Palestinian state on our border. As an Israeli Jew I welcome this prospect; only then do we stand a chance.

The reason that you supply all of these things (in small quantities and at a price, of course) is that YOU took them away from the Palestinians in the first place you indian giver!

For 2,000 years Jews were dispersed thruout Europe? Does that mean Europe is our also?? I support 2 state solution

Your words and writing style are very similar to Sarah B's. Very suspicious "Jenni"

Only losers blame others for their ills and enjoy wallowing in THEIR OWN FAILURE, sad case Sam

There are 10 million claiming to be Fukestinians today up from 800,000 in 1948 and less than 100,000 Aborigines left alive in 1900 from a population of 700,000 in 1778. Who is doing a better job at leeching?

ignorance and bigotry you just validated our existence.. Never miss a chance to take a swipe yet the egg's on your face, ha ...might take some time for you to figure out how, mind

this can change. Israel's high- teck and sophisticated arms and other creative inventions has much to offer.Israel must adapt herself to the new situation and go forwards .

Thank You for the compliment, (01.21.14)...Nice name btw... My comments are always based on true historical facts.. Anyone who writes the factual truth, his/her posts would be alike..There is only one truth..Lies are as many, as are lying people... Have a nice day..

Thank You for the compliment, but I am not "Sara B"...

And of course they should be paid for quantities ordered. The Palestinians have joint responsibility for water. Nothing was taken from the Palestinians. About time the Palestinians got off the world dime and supported themselves. They ask for independence, then beg for aid.

26: There is no need to change the US borders because everyone born within the current borders automatically has US citizenship and equal rights. There are no stateless people in the US. Everyone is included regardless of religion or ancestry.
