government ", than I have to apologize, Kowalsky, because you're an even dumber polak than I initially thought possible.
32. To: No. 15

Oh! Do you mean the way the Allies "negotiated" with Nazi Germany? Funnily enough, I seem to recall that the Allies said "unconditional surrender or we keep bombing." And that was after just the one war. The Arabs have attacked Israel on six occasions. It is the Arabs who are the vanquished ones; not the Jews. And then there's the little matter of seven decades of unremitting "Palestinian" terrorism, visited against both Jews in the State of Israel and Jews in the Diaspora. Still waiting for you to tell us all about the U.S. airlift of Jews to Israel in 1948. You claim first-hand, personal knowledge. Why don't you regale us with your fairy tale?
33. What is key ...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.05.14)
... is that such negotiations are a blatant violation of United States law. You know -- the laws that the president took an oath to uphold. It is also a serious breach of the public trust. No sense in idle speculation about whether Israel was aware of these clandestine, illegal talks. Of course Israel was aware -- very little, if anything, goes on in the Middle East of which Israel is not fully informed. It's bankable information, usable when the need arises. This is an impeachable offense. Let's see what the House of Representatives does.
34. Harold #27 Why should A in Belgium
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (06.05.14)
care what you think. The race card is getting old because of it's overuse by people like you. I happen to be Jewish and I also happen to be a Christian. I am not offended in any way by A. in Belgium. I do find your drivel offensive however. I see lots of negative comments about Christians on this site and I don't take it personally. If God doesn't like it he will deal with it himself. He isn't like Allah that can't defend himself from cartoonists and teddy bears.
35. #15 Harry Sack What Part Of Terrorists
(06.05.14)
Don't you understand? How is one Government elected by the people for the people, supposed to negotiate in Good Faith with vermin Who have a agenda of Violence, Destruction and LIES??? Hence Terrorists Never Keep their word or commitments!!! Save your antisemitism for your buddies in the white hoods or little mustaches You POS!!!
36. #27 You don't know anything about me, bumpkin,
A ,   Belgium   (06.05.14)
but I found your comment "you are considered an abnormal swine with 5 legs and two tails" extremely humorous and up to your usual sublevel cretinous intelligence. And I personally don't recieve welfare checks nor do I know anybody who does...anywhere. Your mental flatulance is getting the best of you, it seems.
37. Obama once again ignores the law
CJK   (06.05.14)
breaking the law has become routine for obama. hamas is a terrorist organisation so designated by the united states. hamas has not been previously recognised as a legitimate organisation. the hamas charter calls for the destruction of the state of israel. the hamas charter states that it does not recognise international laws, only sharia law. the obama regime ignores the intent and ideology of the islamist terror group hamas in an effort to score cheap political points.
38. Marie Harf
CJK   (06.05.14)
ussd spokesman marie harf: "there is no such back channel. our position on hamas has not changed." it is amusing to see this young ignorant woman pontificate about a matter of which she is totally ignorant. someone needs to enlighten her to the fact that obama does not inform people in the state department of his nefarious deeds.

According to international observers it was fair and square the fact that it didn't turn the way the Zionist and their ass-kissers on Capitol Hill expected it doesn't matter ,... Palestinian nation has spoken, everyone got the message except the sole 'democracy' in the M East ,...

The Jews, Christians and Muslims believe that there's only one God, then comes an idiot like you and say that Muslims pray to another one ,... Get a grip, pinhead ,...
41. That's what the governments do ,...
split ,   US   (06.05.14)
I mean the self respecting ones, they negotiate, make deals behind the door and if possible show up with solutions instead running around like the dumb cat with coca can tied to his tail with a picture of bottle and read marker in the other hand ,...
42. To #51 lol
Dudu   (06.06.14)
Yes i remember i post that this morning, israel held secret negotiations with hamas, the shalit affair is famous
43. To: No. 41
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.06.14)
Hey, jughead! This is a discussion on an Israeli news website. We really do not care about Polacks running around with cans tied to their tails. Sober up; get an education -- then offer up your "pearls" of wisdom. Right now -- sorry. We are definitively not interested in the "enlightenment" of a Polack drunk. Forgive the redundancy.
44. Europeans buuuuuuuuu!

Hillary hillary hilary eh oh oh oh Ilari lary eh o o o talkback de ynet te saludan con amor!!! Jajaja Thats my ynet team! I had a great time reading you Laila tov
45. #39 A fair and square election means murdering your rivals?
A ,   Belgium   (06.06.14)
Maybe the Republicans should toss Hillary off of a roof top, right? And which "international observers" decided that it was a fair election? You continue to amaze with the fathomless depths of your stupidity, polak.
46. # 40
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (06.06.14)
A Jew, a Christian, and a Moslem believe there is only one car. The Jew and the Christian own a Chevy and the Muslim owns a Ford. They all believe there is only one car. So what? Jews and Christians worship the same God. Muslims worship a god that teaches things differently. The same God would teach the same things as the God of Israel and Christians do. The Muslim god can't defend himself from Danish cartoonists and teddy bears. Not the same thing.
47. I beg your pardon 46 ,...
split ,   US   (06.07.14)
Koran teaches that Jesus was a prophet, Torah on the other hand teaches that He was a bastard, His mother was a whore,... Advancing Muslims gave the 'infidels' a choice, to convert or to pay higher taxes, what choice did the dwellers (including pregnant woman and children) of Jericho get? ,... Google 'bible atrocities' and spare me your crap ,...

"After polls closed, officials and observers called the vote "peaceful"; Edward McMillan-Scott, the British Conservative head of the European Parliament's monitoring team described the polls as "extremely professional, in line with international standards, free, transparent and without violence". "All polling stations closed on time (7 p.m.) except for East Jerusalem, where voting was extended by the permitted two extra hours. Hamas protested this extension, claiming it only served Fatah; the Central Elections Committee stated that voting hours were "extended upon the approval of the Israeli authorities due to lengthy queues as a result of obstructions by post office workers." Prior to the elections - "Israel launched a campaign of arrest against PLC members. 450 members of Hamas were detained, mostly involved in the 2006 PLC elections. The majority of them were kept in administrative detention for different periods. In the election period, 15 PLC members were captured and held as political prisoners. During the elections, the Israeli authorities banned the candidates from holding election campaigns inside Jerusalem. Rallies and public meetings were prohibited. Also, the Jerusalem identity cards of some PLC members were revoked. The Carter Center, which monitored the elections, criticized the detentions of persons who "are guilty of nothing more than winning a parliamentary seat in an open and honest election"
