31. 3 more yrs of this
Mark ,   Linsky   (03.03.14)
We have survived 5000 yrs but Obama tells us this is our last chance unless we do what he says. The real present birth rates in fact do not show that we will lose a majority. The US is not blocking our isolation but stoking the BDS movement for leverage. Nearly every college and organization has in fact rejected BDS as a violation of freedom. If we ignore Obama he will go away in 3 yrs. We will still be here in 1000.
32. Didn't realize ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.03.14)
... that the Moslem-in-Chief has read about Hillel. I can't wait for 2016. I am so sick of that fraud in the White House.
33. re #17 graczek not so fast!!
American   (03.03.14)
The world doesnt take Obama seriously for example, The Obama's tactic of turning the heat on Moscow instead of Kiev is proving futile and a strategic blunder stemming from weakness, more likely to spark real violence and bloodshed. US President Barack Obama’s call to Vladimir Putin to de-escalate the tension and pull his troops out of Crimea went unheeded why should it be different with Israel Netanyahu should nod and do as he pleases who is obama anyway
34. I'm curious about this deadine Obama keeps talking about.
milwaukeebroad ,   Haifa, Israel   (03.03.14)
When is this deadline and what happens if both sides fail to reach an agreement?
35. BIBI SHOULD RECOGNIZE USA AS CHRISTIAN STATE
Frank-el ,   Seattle USA   (03.03.14)
36. If Israel's future is bleak, the PA's is 50 times worse.
David ,   Hartford USA   (03.03.14)
Israel will survive and thrive because that is Israel, no matter what Mr. Obama threatens. The Palestinians will be worse off by far. More brainwashing, more honor killings, more abused women, and more decay. Yeah, the Palestinians will continue down the road to ruin that they have been paving for the last 60 years. Israel is simply being too polite by allowing third parties to interject themselves. Israel fought many wars and won them. She has every right to draw her own borders. If the Palestinians want to continue to throw their lives away, that's their decision. The Palestinians didn't desire a state when Jordan controlled the west bank, they don't need one now.
37. Obama has more troubles today: N. Korea fired two missiles
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.03.14)
38. Netanyahu needs to take advantage of crises in Ukraine/Korea
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.03.14)
and declare Greater Israel right away.
39. Obama is all talk
Joe Fraser ,   Canada   (03.03.14)
All he does is issue warnings to everyone. Tell him "Kish meer in tuchus". Do you think he can cut aid to Israel unilaterally? Obama is about to become a lame duck Prez once he loses Congress later this year.
40. Posturer, Imposter,Plant, Haman ii
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (03.03.14)
A Plant by Ikhwan , Obama is now out to destroy Israel as he once boasted to his friends he could. Bibi will not be unaware

If Not you who ? Mashiah
42. Its not their land.
(03.03.14)
Historically challenged little man. Ynet and Bloomberg drop to new lows.
43. proof Obama is not a true Christian. Israel has a future and
a hope no matter ,   what comes of the US   (03.03.14)
Obama has No Power to cause any variance of God's plan for Israel nor the plans he has for Obama himself. Like a fish on a hook he and the rest of the world come headlong into a trap laid before the foundation of the world, try as he might he will be reeled in, because by his actions it is clear he is gut hooked and on the wrong side. Loser
44. Irony is that now no body backs obama
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!! ,   United States   (03.03.14)
he's like the barking chihuahua who makes incessant noise signifying a small yapping dog. Even other democrats wont be seen dead with him. Nothing more, just an irritant. BUILD TO THE MAX, BABY !!!
45. CUTTING THE USA ARMED FORCES

michael   (03.03.14)
We were a nation for 4,000 years and we have a bright future and we will continue to be a nation in Israel; for thousands more.
48. God of Israel's message to Obama.... Shove it........!!!!!!!
Yeshaya ,   Jerusalem   (03.03.14)
I gave Israel to the Jews. Don't tell ME how to run the world.
49. Obama
Rhonda ,   Chicago, usa   (03.03.14)
So in other words, Obama expects Israel to give into everything that the Palestinians want or the failure of the talks is Israel's fault. That means giving up Eastern Jerusalem, ? Right of return? Unbelievable except that it is believable. Obama isn't trusted anywhere on this planet, his word means nothing, his friendship is nothing, I'm just glad I didn't vote for him.
50. IF YOU LIKE YOUR BORDERS YOU CAN KEEP YOUR BORDERS.
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (03.03.14)
SINCERELY, BARACK H. OBAMA
51. Mr President:
Zeev, Haifa   (03.03.14)
Sir, You might find encouragement in the words of our former Israeli Supreme Court Judge.Haim Cohn exactly 25 years ago:, “In my opinion, if we shall not return the Territories – and that, the sooner the better! - we shall be found moving towards total bankruptcy. We shall be unable to survive, the state will be eliminated. “I think that ultimately they will dictate to us a withdrawal from the Territories. America and the USSR (*) are in a convenient position. They will be able to dictate a return of the Territories. To my regret and to my shame this is my only hope today.” - Haim H. Cohn, Supreme Court Judge. Talks with Michael Shashar, Keter, 1989, page 213 (*) Replace with EU (European Union).
52. 'Abbas willing to recognize Israel'
Nick ,   Sweden   (03.03.14)
I'll believe it when I see it with my own eyes. By the current looks of it, a statement "I recognize Israel" would be his last words.
53. #35
albert snow ,   sweden   (03.03.14)
Why? It´s not about religion stupid, it´s about nationality. Jew are a nationality and not a religion.
54. #53 That old chestnut
Darren Ben John ,   Townsville Australia   (03.03.14)
Jews only say that when it suits them. Otherwise they say the reverse.
55. settelments
Ronald Nelson ,   Dayton, OH   (03.03.14)
Israel stopped the settlements for 10 months and the Palestinian made not response. That has been the story land for peace with only the land given with no peace response. Why do the president and Sec.Kerry continue todeny the reality of this situation. The Arabs just want to remove Israel
56. Obams wants Israel to have a
Reuven   (03.04.14)
bleak future. Bibi: Don't listen to him!
57. #53 albert, #54 darren
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.04.14)
Jews are both, stupid. Ever hear of Judaism?
58. In pratice USA could great deal if wish to preesser the PA
Jason Belkin ,   USA Monsey   (03.09.14)
In practice big problem USA refuse to threat them. In practice terms USA for Palestinian own good should say if go UN we going sisgn a treaty Israel openly stated we see Jerusalem as Israel capital and security fence along borderlines go along temporal border any future UN resolution accord treaty we veto or vote against if state Palestinian get even inch of Jerusalem. Palestinian go to the UN they well undermine they themselves.
59. #53 ??
Frank-el ,   Seattle USA   (04.12.14)
Oooo, don't call me names. Sorry, I can't relate to your second grade tactics. By the way, the nation is called Israel and it defines nationality, not being a Jew. Yet another disingenuous use of language to fit your apartheid agenda. Being a Jew is religiously based or at best it's tribalism...but never nationality. Bibi wants to shove Jewishness down the non-Jews' throats? Then recognize USA as Christian (let's take a vote!) state and see what the howling masses of NYC would say. And yes I know the Constitution...just making a point.
