He doesn't belong in a government which seeks to protect the Jewish people. His way is the opposite!

Netanyahu is rubbing off on him. Netanyahu will not bomb Iran and Lapid is not going to create a Palestinian State. The future predicted.

I's sure much of Lapid's proposal will be painful to the Palestinians, but it's the first concrete plan that both sides can work through. Thanks for your courage and clear thinking--you are a breath of fresh air. You can lead Israel to a new and better place I this world.

lapid has 10 X the guts of bibi but he is a security ignoramus like olmert, never served in combat, and doesn't understand defensible borders. Moreover, since a pal state would depend on israel for jobs, it is impossible to completely separate as lapiid advocates. The son is as dumb as his father, a lousy olmert crony.H e is right about bibi- no guts whatsoever. A better plan is to annex the jordan valley and offer the pals paid relocation voluntary.

We need to do what is in the Interests and Values of both our USA & Israel.

1) repeat oslo 2) kiss american ass for the sake of it 3) false promises-israelis will feel totally secure and there will be complete separation just like oslo promised 4) security-lapid knows nothing about security and his whole group have little to none military experience from haber, livni, peres, olmert, german. 5) history is unimportant to this moron;the fact that rabin and peres gave arabs territory in return for 2000 israeli casualties does not raise a quesiton to lapid. the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Lapid's father was a dinner companion of olmert and didn't do much for israel. The son is the same-a useless mk. The main problem is not lapid. it is bibi. He has to go. He vacillates,w ants to please everyone, is uncertain and is scared out of his boots.Vote him out already.

Nothing crazy in Lapid's statement. The problem is the writer's yellow journalism. Writer makes it seem like the world is collapsing. Far from it. Do all of the coalition parties agree with what he says probably not, However, the coalition is going to survive that statement. There is nothing to panic about the Palestinians will screw themselves. They always do! Abba Eban famous quote says it all "Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity." If we do nothing they will kill their own momentum.

Great Habayit HaYehudi will win the next election and form the government with Likud and Strong Israel as junior partners. Yesh Atid will become a small party with about 5 seats and Kadima and the Tzipi Livni fan club will be out of the Knesset having failed to pass the threshod

He forgets Hamas is his new partner. Everyone tried white peace doves. Extending hand of friendship. In return we had soldiers lynched, cafes blown up and parts of people being picked off 20 meter walls. Who. By Hamas.

lapid is a fool who has no understanding of international affairs.

Yair Lapid espouses a rational, legal, and moral position that can return Israel to the path of the pursuit a "just" peace. The Bible, on which the right wing bases much of its position, tasked no one in our time with reconquering the land of Israel. The directive was given to Joshua alone. Modern Israel is a magnificent, legally created Jewish state that came into being via negotiation and majority consensus. We need to stop shooting ourselves in the foot by being stubborn and unreasonable.

Listen to Lapid because he is the right leader for Israel. He did state what I always state that Israel is building for the Palestinians and that what I said to BUILD FOR OTHERS BUILD. Just imagine what happens when 4 million Palestinians are part of Israel's population. Go Lapid Go and do whatever is right for your people and state.

Mr. Lapid, with all due respect, I strongly believe, you out to rethink your demands, threats and especially, your lack of respect to your PM. Netanyahu, not to mention to the sovereign GOD of Israel. I can not dispute your good attention to protect Israel and the well being of Israel future generations. But, you are lacking few major keys to what ever plan or ideas you may have. Regarding tour leader, "Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. In 1949, I heard the report of what the Arabs were saying. They were vociferously asserting that if the United Nations would let them alone, they would mop up with the Jews and would not leave a single Jew in Palestine. They would either slaughter them or drive them into the Mediterranean Sea. I heard all my life; and, during the days that I was there, I heard it time and time again. The Arabs were saying then and are saying today the very same thing: “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.” Pls read psalm 83 “But to whom does the Holy Land belong? In Leviticus 25:23, we find this declaration; “And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.” In Isaiah 8:8, God claims the land for His Son, referring to it as “thy land, O Immanuel.” In Deuteronomy 11:12, one learns that God cares for this land in a peculiar manner, for His eyes “are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.” Israel should never ever agree to peace with compromising of land. "... there will I deal with and execute judgment upon them for their treatment of My people and of My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations and because they have divided My land." [Joel 3:2]. 5. Final Stroke of Judgment against Israel's Enemies For the final act of this drama, please read Isaiah17:12-14. "Ah, the uproar of many peoples, that roar like the roaring of the seas; and the rushing of nations, that rush like the rushing of mighty waters! The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters...” All nations are against Jerusalem like a storm, as the Scriptures are telling us. In reality Mr. Lapid , there is a difference between a wrong choice and a mistake. Wrong choice is when one choses wrong while his/her attentions are good. The wrong choice become a mistake , when one repeat the wrong choice. Unfortunately, my beloved Israel faces today her wrong choice and her mistake. In 1948 , after Israel became a state, no Arabs should have been allowed to stay in the Land.! End of discussion. There you have the "wrong choice". When Israel made peace with Jordan and Egypt, Gaza should have been included as a must part of the peace treaty with Egypt and t so called Palestinians who lived in Judea and Samaria should have been moved out to Jordan , as they were Jordanian and under Jordanians authorities since 1948. We keep the land as it was giving to us not once but twice. Here you have the so call " mistake". Please remember beside the fact that GOD is watching over us the Jews/ Israelites, we should not raise physical weapon or verbal one against our brothers. It open a door to the enemy to attack even more, when there is a division, especially in public. May God give you heavenly wisdom to stand firm with your brothers and not against them. Amen!

Lapid assumes that he will find a responsive partner across from him at the negotiation table. That partner - whether Abbas or Haniyah - doesn't exist. This we learned when Arafat refused to sign a peace treaty when Clinton/Barak offered him almost 99% of the WB plus E Jerusalem. At least Arafat was honest about the only deal the Palestinians would accept. Lapid simply lacks political maturity and a grasp of our adversary. He lost my vote. The present state of affairs is not entirely to our disadvantage. It is not making us weaker.

You could have just left off the last 3 words and been just as correct

morsi gained power and was taking egyot back to the dark ages.Obama tried to rescue him but the egyptian people said no to morsi and invited sissi to get rid of him. He killed, jailed and outlawed the brotherhood from which pal hamas came. So lapid with his great self image, thinks its ok to negotitate with hamas in spite of egypt's experience or he'll bring down the government. Bring it down by all means. Then israelis can reduce lapid to at most 10 seats, livni will be out, bibi will be replaced by a new leader preferably feiglin or shamir or yaalon and this olso cancer will stop. israel has had enough of this bullshit, peace, shmease. Oh, so lapid discovered the truth fountain and of course one has to make nice with obama. What abloody dzimmis. This is the chosen people. These are dzimmis who are a greater danger to soverignty than iran, hezbollan and hamas put together. And the israeli media buys this junk from lapid??? What is wrong with you people??!!!

Lapig can run on this platform in Gaza and win.

Lapid is clearly descended from the mythical stock of Chelm. the worst thing that Israel can ever do is to freeze its living spaces. and to have foreign interlopers tell it where the Jewish people can or cannot live in this world. Lapid is clearly unfit for Israel's government.

AND I HOPE YOU NEVER GET ELECTED AGAIN

But Lapid, we remember your electoral promises that became lies. Why do you think anyone is listening to you. Nothing more than an opportunist who would have his entire family on the first plane out if the crap hits the fan. I say all the ministers who wish to weaken Israel by returning to the Auschwitz borders should have their and their families passports revoked.

Annex Yehuda & Shomron immediately and we'll immediately get rid of the evil of evils.

We are with you!!!!

Ha. Good point. Let him quit. Elections and no one will vote him in again

Hamas' representative in Israel's government

Bennett has called for Israel to annex area C which is overwhelmingly Jewish & has only 60,000 Arabs. Areas A & B could be autonomous zones like many nations have, where the Arabs would have self-rule. Lapid's plan sounds like disengagement 2. Now that the PLO & Hamas have unified, Hamas is sure to take over & under Lapid's plan all of Israel would be under the threat of rocket attacks.

So, let Lapid withdraw from the coalition. You will be surprised at the number of Israelis who will breathe a sigh of relief -- Lapid is a one-trick pony -- and Bennett will be the next prime minister. He will do what is right for the Jewish people. And how DARE you -- a non-Jew, not to mention, disgusting anti-Semite -- assume that you know what is right for the Jewish people? Still waiting for you to explain how you came by first hand experience and personal knowledge of the United States airlift of Jews to Israel in 1948. Because such an airlift never happened, so I'd really like to hear your explanation. You're just a braying jackass. You should mind your own business.
