1. Sanctions to stop nuclear weapons
Daniel   (01.23.14)
So is Bibi saying that the West should impose sanctions on any nation in the region that tries to get nuclear weapons? Where would that leave us? Don't get me wrong, 100% against a nuclear Iran. But once again Bibi manages to come across as the one seeking confrontation. When the world sees the Iranian president as the one seeking peace and the Israeli PM as the bully, then we have one gigantic image problem.
2. Thanks for the shmooze, Booboo
Leon   (01.23.14)
Too bad you don't kill Gazans but focus your energies on releasing mass murderers and shmoozing with the perfidious goyim.
3. Ahmed Tibi, traitor and terrorist, was Knesset speaker
A ,   Belgium   (01.23.14)
(yes, the traitor Tibi was Knesset speaker!) yesterday and using (or abusing) the rights awarded even to terrorists disguised as parlementarians, EJECTED the Israeli patriot MK Moshe Feigelin from the Knesset! Why? Because in a democracy, it is allowed. I want to see one more trash talkbacker complain about Israel being an "apartheid" , racist state!
4. Netanyahu : My kind of man...a real man
lydia ,   Brisbane   (01.23.14)
5. Dear A. in Belgium
Daniel   (01.23.14)
Israel is not a racist state, far from it. Very few people here think it is. Unfortunately, you're a racist. You always use inflammatory language about Arabs and many other nationalities. Just as you say, Israel is not racist, Israel respects differences of opinions, and Israel does not discriminate based on ethnicity. You should follow Israel's example.
6. Iran so Bad IDF has to be in Jordan Valley
Zechariah   (01.23.14)
Iran has such bad elements the IDF has to have a Presence in the Jordan Valley even then thapalestinians will be swayed by the Popular Jihadi or Fatah Baath Arab and Palestinian nationalism So the Jews ought counter . Better if the social gap was drastically narrowed and wages high ..
7. Netanyahu is "whistling past the graveyard", knows jig is up
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.23.14)
8. Draws direct line between peace and Iran
Harold ,   USA   (01.23.14)
How many preconditions for peace this man has issued since he worked as a prime minister of Israel. In other words this man will never believe iin peace.
9. netanyahu
Farrokh ,   Iran,usa   (01.23.14)
When it comes to IRAN bark and bark and keep barking toothless dog(Netanyahu).
10. To nr 8 - Israel is an independent and sovereign state
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (01.23.14)
We make peace with whoever we wish, when we wish, where we wish and on our conditions that will serve our national interests - otherwise there is no point in "peace" if it's not going to benefit the country which is supposed to make "peace" with another entity. Peace is not made to sacrifice oneself but to gain something for one's country - i.e. lack of war and conflict, security and safety, control of land, recognized independence and sovereignty etc. If "peace" entails sacrificing one's existence and vital interests, it means that the "peace" is actually no "peace" at all, but a pretext on behalf of the third parties to force the "peace agreement" down the throat of the targeted nation, to exercise political pressure and blackmail against the country which is forced to enter a "peace agreement". Israel is not supposed to make you happy or sad and Israel is not supposed to heed your words. Israel is supposed to follow its own will. Since you support Israel's destruction I think it's mind boggling that you accuse Israel of not wanting to have peace.
11. To nr 9 - the confused Persian dude
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (01.23.14)
"Toothless dogs" are usually not democratically elected Prime Ministers representing a country armed with hundreds of nuclear warheads and the 4-5th largest military air force in the world and the 2nd highest concentration of academics in the world. Undemocratic countries do not allow free press and unfree press does not publish hostile, vile and vitriolic talkbacks posted by an individual from an enemy state.
12. Who foments, benefits from, Arab terorism on Israel? Iran
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.23.14)
13. Iran "clean break" strategy is to divide, rule, Arab world
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.23.14)
14. To nr 5 - Does anti-Semitism bother you?
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (01.23.14)
Because that is racism too and is rampant among non-Jewish talkbackers at Ynet and among Moslems of the Middle East. It's easy to engage in childish rhetorics and to reject the very true and factual statements of Mr A from Belgium as "racist". What language he uses is none of your concern. You're no judge of men. Mind your own business. I see nothing remotely "racist" in talkback nr 3. Racism denotes a collective demonization of each person individually and the entire people collectively who are members of a particular racial and ethnic group. Racism implies that one ascribes collective negative and destructive and often "inferior" traits to a whole group of people based on their race or ethnicity. That's what racism really is. Point out the exact phrase which is supposedly "racist".
15. no. - 7 there are too many graveyards of Arabs killing Arabs
(01.23.14)
16. 11 With all the WMDs and the 4th larget military
lydia ,   Brisbane   (01.23.14)
When Israel returns the US3bil taxpayers $$$ and refuses the US veto against 250UN res. Its all over Red Rover for the thieving little racist apartheid squat on Palestinian land.
17. # 14 Yes, anti-semitism bothers me
Daniel   (01.23.14)
Yes, anti-semitism bothers me. It bothers me a lot. All racism bothers me, in fact, but there are two cases were I react extra much: if the racism is directed at me, or if the racism comes from someone who claims to represent me. Most of your talkback appears highly double-sided. First you tell me it's none of my business what other talkbackers say, then you go off lecturing me for what I say. Which is it - is it our business what others say or not? You cannot have it both ways, you know. Second, the signature "A" from Belgium has been active here for a long time, always speaking out against peace, and quite often using highly derogatory language both about other users and about entire population groups. There is no racism in post nr 3, but the user there talk about racism and I pointed out that that is very much the pot calling the kettle black. It's the same hypocrisy you engage in when you think nobody else can comment on others, but you can do it all you want. Here's a simple rule: assume that the rules are the same for everybody. Is something is racist when said about us, it's also racist when said by us. If attacking Jews is racist (and it is!) then attacking other ethnicities is also racist. This is really not that hard.
18. 4Peace to warmonger/land theves and mass murdersrs
lydia ,   Brisbane   (01.23.14)
Bibi wants the World to surrender to his nonsense. If the Palestinians lay down their arms Israel would annihilate them.
19. #10
Harold ,   USA   (01.23.14)
So it mean EITHER MY WAY OF THE HIGHWAY. I predict soon you going to use an Iron Dom beside your pillow. One thing I can tell you if the peace process fails, EU has prepared a list of sanctions and they will be applied soon as per the their ambassador 's statement yesterday. You cannot go on grabbing other's lands and say they part of the promissed land.
20. #14, Read again #3 and tell me how she is NOT a racist?
Michael ,   California, USA   (01.23.14)
And tell me how you are NOT both a fascist and a racist?
21. #5 "Israel does not discriminate based on ethnicity"
A ,   Belgium   (01.23.14)
Oh really...are you willing to say that to the Jews from Morocco, from Yemen, from Iraq, from Iran, from Ethiopia, from the former USSR? And I'm not even talking about moslems, but about Jews. I've heard the stories first hand, you should maybe listen better.
22. #4 Compared to what you have in Australia...
(01.23.14)
even King Bibi the Weak is better.
23. #8 "How many preconditions for peace this man has issue
A ,   Belgium   (01.23.14)
Not half as many as the terrorist Abbas. He even got a $75,000,000 gift from the foolish, naive American taxpayers to walk out of the ridiculous "peace talks, " which YOU helped pay for.
24. #19 Finally a cure for my insomnia!,
A ,   Belgium   (01.24.14)
Harolds demented posts! *YAWN*
25. #20 First of all, I am not a she
A ,   Belgium   (01.24.14)
So before commenting on what I and others write, perhaps first learn how to read. Arnie obviously did nothing to improve the educational system in Calif.
26. #18 " If the Palestinians lay down their arms Israel would
A ,   Belgium   (01.24.14)
annihilate them." The best thing that could happen!
27. Genocide
Daniel   (01.24.14)
Time and time again, Ynet allows the user A. from Belgium to appeal for genocide, the murder of millions of people because of their nationality. I've pointed this out three times already, yet my comments about this are never accepted, while the calls for genocide are published. How is calling for mass-murder based on race not against your terms of use?
28. #5 "Israel is not a racist state"
A ,   Belgium   (01.24.14)
"Israel does not discriminate based on ethnicity" Would you care to explain those statements to the Jews who came from N.Africa, Yemen, Iran, Iraq, Ethiopia and the former USSR? Or the good citizens of Druze and Bedouin background? I don't think they would agree with you.
29. #27 I'm not calling for genocide
A ,   Belgium   (01.24.14)
I'm calling for repatriation of the illegal arab squatters in Judea and Samaria to the country that they (appx. 80%) are citizens of: Jordan. Please don't call me a religious fanatic because I'm not religious at all. I am also in favor of Israel using every and any means possible to defend itself if necessary. If you want to call that genocide, than go right ahead. I call it self defense.
