31. Arabs should stick to their plans
Why should they lie ,   and say it's Jewish?   (03.25.14)
Secular Godless lawless Jews have no merit who will cause the Arabs to recapture the land they were thrown out of for no reason. It's only thanks to religious Torah Jews that Israel exists until now.
32. what are you begging them for?
yeheskel   (03.25.14)
to hell with the arab league and beilin and sheetrit whose views are misguided and dead wrong. it is like kerry slapping sanctions on russia and then asking ...this won't affect our joint work on syrian chemicals-will it. What a dumb shmuck??!! This business of israel constantly conceding has got to stop. otherwise you have no business being a state. You media and bleeding heart gal ons and livnis have no self respect. You will never havve peace with arabs. what you should offer is that you willnot make war on arabs and make furthur claims if they agree to armistice arrangements-end of story.
33. Tell me something new
Erik ,   Norway   (03.25.14)
Tell me something new, please. By the way, I wonder if the ignorant (or apparently ignorant) Europeans and Americans will be informed by their media about this rejection to Israel. If they do, they will proably water it down and explaing it by critisising Israel.
34. yakamoto
john ,   canada   (03.25.14)
Hey Mr yak, Sir I believe your Japanese and you know nothing of Palestinian history so first stick to your own country who during world war two were basically on the side of the murderous Germans whoin turn killed Jews, I don't rememberJapan every trying to save them. Second Palestine was majority Palestinians before and during world war 2 and they were forced out of their country by the Zionist who are as racist as anyone else, I think there term for you is goyim. So do yourself a favour, don't spread propaganda on their behalf, and by the way many Palestinians trace their ancestry from the original philistines who are of Greek decent as I am, so I think they have been there long enough to call it home, also the Jews were not the first people to occupy that land there was a people and civilization there way before them, go read it up Mr yak yak.
35. tell the truth
dee ,   haifa   (03.25.14)
it should say arab zionist league !!!! this is a zionist agenda , we all know that the arab gulf states are purly zionist and do everything for the zionists , even when they refuse to recognize israel as a jewish state , its for the zionist long run agenda ....
36. Islam Stuck Ideologically but Realism Different
Zechariah   (03.25.14)
The Realism is that Right or Wrong The USA and Russia Rule and will for the Forceable Future .They Desire the Markets Islam can offer but will not tolerate Threats to their Essential Interests.The Israeli Palestinian Conflict is high in Symbolism but involves Millions in a world of Billions .
37. Israel Jewish state
abbashaya ,   Israel USA   (03.25.14)
I don't recognize ssaudi Arabia as a Muslim state Aprthaide yes, but who cares it means nothing to anyone.
38. Not a deal breaker
Harvey ,   London   (03.25.14)
It's irrelevant what the Arabs think . Even if they were to acknowledge Israel as a Jewish nation state , that statement in itself is not a game changer and could be nullified without hesitation at some later date . Any peace agreement with the Arabs is merely Hudna . The important consideration is that the Arabs are impotent and have been for centuries . Syria is in no position to wage war with Israel and Egypt ' s army is obsolete with out of date weaponry . Irak is out the equation . Do the deal . The benefits to Israel would be immeasurable . The Palestinians know full well that any act of terrorism following a deal would mean the end of their fledgling state and they would have no support outside of the Arab League , Iran and Russia . Europe , the States , Canada and the Antipodeans would write them off .
39. If we recognise Israel as the jewish State
Ivor Evenbiggergun   (03.25.14)
It will result in Moslems and Christians being ethnically cleansed from Israel, and resettling them to the East
40. The Qatari sheik getting too many enemies
Abu Yousuf El- Dugri   (03.25.14)
Sheik Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani must be taught a lesson and very soon.
41. Qatar is not Arab state we don't recognize it.
Canadian Citizen   (03.25.14)
42. # 37 What?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (03.25.14)
If Saudi Arabia isn't Muslim, how do you explain Mecca, Jack? Worse than 'apartheid' Arabia is hell for women and kids and opposing Muslims in the midst of a Muslim v. Muslim mass slaughter. Call it what you will, it is hell. ISRAELS BUSY BUILDING !!!
43. # 5 Jim Yakamoto, OUR country.
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (03.25.14)
Brilliant response, Sir. Shalom. BUILDING MAKES US HAPPY.!!!!
44. # 9 james, ny ny Or,
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (03.25.14)
if I may... Instead of "Real pece only comes with compromise' I prefer to say "Real peace only comes with victory." And, peace is the lull between wars which seems on a cycle never broken.
45. not unexpected
jochair ,   kfar saba Israel   (03.25.14)
The Al will continue the Islamic war against Israel, whether there is peace or not. The AL is totally retarded, and irrelevant.
46. Support for the PA
James ,   USA   (03.25.14)
All future contributions must go through the Israeli minister of finance for distribution to palestinian squatters less maintenance fees and payment for government and civilian services. Back charges will be applied for nonpayment of taxes on any land israel declares hers.
47. 1001 Nights
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.25.14)
"The draft resolution will also call on Arab states to provide $100 million in financial aid to the Palestinian Authority every month." Too funny! How loudly do you think some of the dirt-poor Arab countries will howl?
48. #17 Thanks for the good laugh!
Lynx ,   Palestine   (03.25.14)
Sarah, thank you for making me chuckle on a daily basis. Do you have any idea how ridiculous you sound? Are you truly surprised that 250 million Arabs refuse to become Zionists? We Arabs, especially Palestinians, will recognize a "Jewish State" when you recognize the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Grow up, or down a pill or two. Get real, seriously, it's time, along with all of you armchair hot heads.
49. when Abbas gets a state the AL will demand change in Israel
zionist forever   (03.25.14)
Once they get the palestinians state the Arab League is going to start pushing to end the Jewish state concept. The AL will go to the UN say Israel illegally practices apartheid against its arab citizens by being a Jewish state and must become a religion neutral state of the people ( arabs are hypocrites). We will probably then see liberal countries placing sanctions on Israel for its apartheid identity and we will see NGOS and political activist groups popping up all over the place protesting & holding political stunts demanding change. Creating a palestinians state is not going to end Israels problems with the arabs it will jut be stage 1 in the arab attempt to destroy the Jewish state concept which is why the AL can never recognise Israel as a Jewish state.
50. 48 Lynx
alsky ,   toronto   (03.25.14)
Zionists can be found in every part of the world. Get used to it ! We shall always support those on the front line of the Islamic caliphate !
51. jokers
john ,   canada   (03.25.14)
All you crazy Jews make me laugh with the build baby build nonsense cause every time you build Arabs take that land over example Gaza and tare the garbage cheap construction down. You also got kicked out of Lebanon lol. It seems as time goes by your land keeps shrinking. Keep building Arabs well just keep taking lol.
52. Lynx #48
Harvey ,   London   (03.25.14)
Get a reality check son . There's not a day goes buy when your 250 million Arabs are not engaging with some aspect of Israeli ingenuity be it IT , telecoms , pharmaceuticals , medicine and a whole lot more . That's how you recognise Israel - and we take your money honey
53. # 48
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.25.14)
I don't think Sarah B gives a rats behind what 250 million Arabs do or think. Not recognizing Israel as a Jewish state is like not recognizing the earth isn't flat. Funny you should speak of hot heads when you need to defend your deity from Danish cartoonists and teddy bears by killing people at random. Perhaps you would be better off with the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He has a thicker skin and can defend himself. His followers don't try to kill anyone that disagrees with them and they don't wear diapers on their heads. You should listen to Sarah and then perhaps we wouldn't be laughing at you Lynx.
54. And May G'd Bless Calibi from Aust.(#12)
From Israel   (03.25.14)
55. "Jewish State" with 6M Jews, 9M Arabs, not going to happen
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.25.14)
56. # 51
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.25.14)
Gaza is a good example of what Arabs give. Like the world really needs another cess pool? You can laugh at Jews but I assure you we will have the last laugh.
57. # 34 John's reply to Mr. Yakamoto
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.25.14)
If you only knew how stupid you sound you would be too embarrassed to post such nonsense. You don't really address any of Jims points you just go on a rant and make a fool of yourself. Post # 5 is intelligent while your is just a knee jerk reaction showing only your ignorance.
58. To Number 6
Pinky Lee ,   Miami USA   (03.25.14)
Grow up and write like a man, not like a child. Say what you mean. Your sophomoric comedy accomplishes nothing and amuses no one except yourself.
59. "Jewish State" with 6M Jews and Foreign Arabs sent to Mecca.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.25.14)
60. #48 - Arabs are already the best Zionists
William ,   Israel   (03.25.14)
If it wasn't for your constant intransigence, racism, war crimes and terrorism for 94 years now.... Israel wouldn't have found a way to survive, to grow on a non-petrol based economy, to be more secure and now a technological powerhouse, and flooded with tons of refugees thrown from Arab lands to help build the nascent State. YOU are responsible for most of the successes of Israel to-date than any Israeli leader, so thank you.
