mike ,   uk   (04.20.14)
Just do it, we are all so sick and tied of this never ending problem. One-state for two people is good. Let jews and arabs share the land in a democratic new state called Isrealtine. Go Bibi go.. you are the saviour of the jews.
2. ungradeful fools
HOIUSE OF ISRAEL ,   oygpivo   (04.20.14)
let these people go live under syrian or other arab nations rule and not waste another cent on them they have had there chance now lets give the aid to israeli citizens
3. Clan leader
David ,   New England   (04.20.14)
I read about an Arab palestinian clan leader who was opposed to taking land from Israel for a palestinian state, has the allegiance of numerous families, and said he would not support the PA if they did get their state. Israel should support him instaed of Abbas. Does anyone remember his name?
4. Left and Right extremists
Sam ,   Canada   (04.20.14)
Bennett is correct but he doesn't want peace anyways if it means giving up any territory even for an offer acceptable to most Israelis. Meretz comes across as a bunch of cowards willing to do anything to placate the Palestinians and suck up to the US and EU.
5. Quick! Look to the *Left*,....
Gideon Reader   (04.20.14)
...after all, they have such a splendid, consistantly fine record of managing things. Everywhere. Everytime. (Sarcasm meter stuck in the max detent position) However one must give them credit for,.... Wait, I'm thinking. They must have been correct about something. I guess not. Never mind.

7. gal on and livni
arieh   (04.20.14)
these 2 represent jews with hands up as the nazis led them to death. Do this or abbas will do that. To hell with him. let him do. In the meantime, gal on and livni should take martial arts and toughen their spine, as they behave like the weak haredi, the spineless jew who begs his christian overload, please save the poor pathetic jews. Enough of this self humiiation. Gal on- gain some strengh. And livni- israel was sick of olmert and now he is gone. Israel is bloody sick of you and your appeasement. So get lost and leave.Go viisit olmert in jail and you can share stories with his cronies.
8. Finally!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.20.14)
An Israeli politician with some spine. Call Abbas' bluff. He can be in the lead car in the convoy bringing all the "Palestinians" home to Jordan.
9. Of course
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (04.20.14)
Bennett like the Prime Minister and myself for that matter have a get out of jail card
10. First of all, how
Erin ,   USA   (04.20.14)
Could Mahmoud Abbas treat his people like this? Secondly, while Many Palestinians have taken to the streets in recent past to support Mr. Abbas, I believe human nature will kick in after all this maneuvering and the Palestinians will elect a new leader and get on with their lives. I bet not even one day would pass after Mahmoud Abbas does this and the Palestinians move on like it never happened. Why would he do a thing like this and why should Israel pay the full bill for keeping all the lands free of terrorists? Does Mahmoud Abbas think he is just going to sit down and watch jihadists move in in droves? How unrealistic? I want to come home.
11. Ridiculous "Palestinian" threats & leftist fear mongering.
Chaim ,   Israel   (04.20.14)
I hope Abbas soon carries out his threat to dismantle the terrorist P.A. That is supposed to scare Israel?? It would be a wonderful thing. Up is down and down is up in the insane world of "peace talks with Palestinians". Abbas threatens Israel with things that would be good for Israel. He tries to lure Israel into committing national suicide with a worthless piece of paper. The sick Meretz Party has nothing sane to offer Israel so it is trying to scare Israel into surrender with despicable fear mongering. Isolation is temporary. Suicide is permanent.
12. The ONLY chance for peace is if the PLO-PA ceases to exist
GREAT IDEA ,   Make my day Abbas!!!   (04.20.14)
This will be the absolute best situation for Arabs as well as Jews. NO WAY there can ever be a resolution or peace as long as that corrupt terror and hatred machine is in charge of Arab Israelis.
13. How could Mr. Bennett be so callus?
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.20.14)
I don't know, but thankfully he is, because someone needs to call a spade a spade.
14. Civil Rights Movement, more powerful argument than Statehood
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.20.14)
...and would allow native Palestinians to recover all of their rights, including voting rights. And all of their stolen land, compensation for stolen property, and a majority Palestinian government. With 9 million native Palestinians, and 6 million immigrant Jews.
15. ungradeful fools
HOIUSE OF ISRAEL ,   oygpivo   (04.20.14)

16. Bennett is right
Brod ,   USA   (04.20.14)
Bennett's vision for the Land of Israel is right. Abbas has seen the light. It will be good for them and Israel. Why continue the conflict inflamed by the Anti-Semite world? It is better to live peacefully as Law-abiding citizens in Israel. The Land of Israel will thrive and become a true powerhouse in the region. Let the light prevail against the Tsunami of Darkness.
17. Bennett
Harold ,   USA   (04.20.14)
Bennett does not know what he is talking about and does not know what will be the consequences if Abbas dismantles PA. Israel will be fully responsible to take care of an additional two to three million residence and that includes healthcare, employment, their welfare and their security. Moreover the world will use a super microscope to check all movement Israel does to the Palestinians and never forget what happens during the elections in Israel.
18. Yoram Ettinger
Robert Haymond ,   Teko'a, Israel   (04.20.14)
Readers should make themselves acquainted with the studies on demographics by Yoram Ettinger, an Israeli and former ambassador. Pretty much, he puts holes in the theories that the Arab population is growing and the Israeli (Jewish) population is not. In addition, he details how our own immigration figures continue to grow. Furthermore, he makes it clear how and where Arab population statistics are falsified (inflated). Very convincing.

Harry ,   Haifa, Israel.   (04.20.14)
This man is completely divorced from reality.
20. When have we not been alone in 4000 years
Sarah ,   Jerusalem   (04.20.14)
Like David and Goliath with only G'd help. Boycot Shmoycot. 4,000 years and still here.
21. EU in a tizz.To whom do they give the trillions of Euros
Alan ,   SA   (04.20.14)
Also USA is demented about not being able to give zilliuons of $$$$
22. Dismantle PA
Jackie ,   Canada   (04.20.14)
Israel fought the 6 day war and conquered the West Bank from Jordan. The major mistake all these years was that Israel starting to negotiate with PA instead with Jordan. West Bank was Jordan territory therefore Israel should ignore PA and open negotiation with Jordan alone. What Jordan does after is not an Israel problem
23. Giving up
Conroy ,   Toronto   (04.20.14)
Abbas has a good idea, giving up. He's not going to achieve what he wants anyway because the PA and Palestinians in general are way too weak to negotiate on par with Israel, he gets no support from the Arab world except for worthless lip service, and really has no other allies who can help him in any meaningful way. Negotiating with Israel is a waste of everyone's time. Just give up and let the chips fall where they may. There's no other option.
24. 13 not mine.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.21.14)
25. no. 14 - Arabs couldn't care less about civil rights
(04.21.14)
all they want is one sect to take over the blood diamonds from another sect told you, intelligent comments are never yours
26. Gal-on
Gita ,   Kibbutz, Israel   (04.21.14)
The Meretz boss happily used the word 'force' against her own country, a word she would never use in connection with her Palestinians. She's a citizen of Israel?
27. To: Brod at No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.21.14)
First of all, Israel already is the regional powerhouse. We got there without the contribution of West Bank Arabs (unless you think violence and terror constitute a "contribution;" personally, I don't) and I don't think they should be part of a future equation. Israel should annex Judea and Samaria, and repatriate the Arabs residing therein to Jordan, country of their citizenship. They will never make dependable, trustworthy Israelis -- we cannot ignore the past seven decades -- and there is no reason to trust them now. What they've done to the Jewish people is largely unforgiveable, and their mindset is so totally different, they'll never make good citizens. They should pursue their future in Jordan. Jordan is, after all, the "Palestinian" state. It is time for the little "Hashemite" half-Iraqi, half-British "king" to face reality. Instead of bullying Israeli ceaselessly, the international community ought to apply pressure to Jordan to do what is right.
