3. US medling in Israel's internal affairs are most unhelpful
CJK   (04.24.14)
pm netanyahu must make it perfectly clear that he will not negotiate with muslim terrorists like hamas and islamic jihad. state depatment spokseman jen psaki's constant attempt to put the sovereign jewish state of israel on the same footing as the group of rootless terrorists of the group referred to as the arab palestinians, is most insulting, to use plain language. the insults hurled at israel by the obama regime will only inflame passions, and on the israeli side, only enrage people.
4. here is a thought
CJK   (04.24.14)
the americans and the eu were informed of this move by abbas. the eu has just expressed its approval. indeed, it is difficult to imagine that abbas would have taken such a step on his own without informing his major supporters. the obama regime and the eu are setting up israel for all manner of diplomatic and economic punishments.
5. US swirling down the gurgler of history
Leon   (04.24.14)
Hussein Soetoro is all over Asia antagonizing Russia and China - the former USA, aka Taser Town is going down down down. Bye and thnx 4 all the fish.
6. Question for Psaki
Devorah   (04.24.14)
Do you ever feel embarrassed over the sewage you vomit on behalf of your desperate and obsessed boss? I doubt that you do because, as the saying goes, shit rolls downhill.
7. "Never negotiate"? Israel talks to Hamas on everything
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.24.14)
...including ceasefires, prisoner release, border crossing, importing goods, water, medical, and financial.
8. Bravo Israel!
Ricardo ,   USA   (04.24.14)
Not everyday you get to knock down 4 , (Hamas,Fatah,Obama,EU),with the same stone. Got my popcorn ready.
9. #4 CJK
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (04.24.14)
The move is a set piece to legitimise Hamas , aka Ikhwan Muslimin; Only scenario that make sense of prior connivance by EU & USA. These evil machinations will unravel by the Lord who performed miracles for his chosen people.
10. Kerry = Obsessive + Messianic = Lunatic
Father Abe   (04.24.14)
11. obama kerry call that foreign policy
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (04.24.14)
NUTS!!
12. It's like watching the US pull the wings off of flies
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (04.25.14)
cruel, non productive and time wasting, bigger question is why? Are they all nuts?Don't answer that. KEEP BUILDING !!!
13. Israeli Security control
Zechariah   (04.25.14)
Any Cold War Arrangement will have to Ensure Security For the Jews being the Minority in the Area.Certainly the Jordan valley area and Parts of Judae and Samariah will have to have Military Bases to Stem PsychoSuicidals Fascist Sadists and Deluded Dreamers.The Arabs who can live in Peace with the Jews need to be treated Equally and all poor elderly and sick need better economic security.
14. 1 not mine.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.25.14)
15. Lets talk some more
James ,   USA   (04.25.14)
Are you nuts. The US thinks Israel should continue to negotiate. I guess Obama hasn't finished selling Israel off down the river. Of course, name one, just one thing Obama has done correctly in the matter of foreign policy. Yankee go home!
16. US+EU still hoping to shove a Pal state down Israel's throat
Sam ,   Canada   (04.25.14)
Obama and the EU are still hoping to appease Muslims at Israel's expense. They figure that the best way to do that is to give Palestinians a state. So, they will tell us how much they care about Israel's security while they pressure Israel to give Palestinians a state. Time for Israel to tell Obama,Kerry and the EU nicely to buzz off.
17. To All Commentators
Harold ,   USA   (04.25.14)
Peace will be imposed if both parties remain stubborn. The EU wants this conflict solved as soon as possible much more than the Americans.
18. SERIOUSLY???
Mike O'Diomasaigh ,   USA   (04.25.14)
how does anyone expect to achieve a peace treaty that is viable unless all the major parties on both sides are involved. do people actually think HAMAS will go quietly into that good night once the PA and Israel agree one something without the involvement. of representatives from HAMAS. israel has does as they always have done...look for any flimsy excuse to keep building settlements while pretending to want peace.
19. #17
James ,   USA   (04.25.14)
No one can impose peace including Nato , the UN, US, the ICC or the EU. The divisions are too great. The only party you can impose it on is Israel as she is the one who has to give. The other party offers nothing in return. (trust). Much blood will be spilled but it will not be from ousiders to the conflict.
20. To One Commentator: You still don't have a clue & never will
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.25.14)
21. Hitler & Stalin before fall out : EU & USA
(04.25.14)
22. Doggedly determined
Gaby ,   Jerusalem   (04.25.14)
Mr. Kerry, it's time to give up the negotiations.
23. #17 Still living in la la land. No one can force peace.
Sam ,   Canada   (04.25.14)
24. Obama Couldn't Be Consistent if His Life Depended on It
John Beflitz ,   Dearborn USA   (04.25.14)
Today we hear Obama's mouthpiece Kerry support Israel's decision to stop talks with a PA-Hamas. I am sure that by tomorrow Obama's Islamist confidants will convince him otherwise. Look at the EU. Still pushing for Israel to deal with terrorists. I would like to see the EU and Obama negotiate with al-Quaida. Oh, I forgot, Obama and the EU don't mind dealing with Iran. Stupid me.
25. 7 not mine
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.25.14)
26. Don't give up peace process, but don't expect us, Jews, to
N.L.Katz ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (04.25.14)
lower our guards further and submit to the worst kind of terror organization, only so that the theories - yes, only theories!! - of the Obama/Kerry duo will be tested, at the expense of Jewish life. We have vowed: Never Again!!
27. Abbas Demand Israel recognize Palestine
PINAR ,   NYC   (04.25.14)
Ask America why Israel refuses to recognize Palestine. Palestine has recognized Israel but Israel refuses to recognize. Netanyahu when will Israel recognize Palestine
28. # 17
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (04.25.14)
Imposed? Imposing peace on Muslims is like herding cats.
29. #17 Still living in la la land. No one can force peace.
Sam ,   Canada   (04.25.14)
30. The US needs to get involved in the genocide of Whites in
Rivkah   (04.25.14)
South Africa and stay away from Jerusalem which is a burdensome stone to any nation that gets involved in trying to divide Jerusalem or oppress Israel to divide its land for peace when there is no peace with Islamics who lie and that is all right in their religion.
