History nut ,   Israel   (10.01.15)
What a galling article. How sad to have to work along side this sinister writer of fables.

Bill ,   Skokie U.S.A.   (10.02.15)
4. DEMAND Israeli govt. let fictional "Palestine" fall!
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.01.15)
Yet again "Palestinians" demonize Israel in front of the world. "Palestinians" murder us at will, terrorize us, hurt us every way they can. Yet the mad flow of Israeli food, money, electricity, work permits etc. to fictional "Palestine" continues. Enough of the madness! DEMAND Israel's government let evil fictional "Palestine" fall! This tiny land is ours.
5. Israel must end "Palestine" charade
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.02.15)
Israeli food, money, electricity, work permits etc. is all that keeps the sick "Palestine" charade going. If you love Israel; DEMAND Israel's government end this support of our mortal foes.
6. Ben-Yishai is delusional & going crazy...
Ozraeli ,   Australia   (10.02.15)
Some quotes from the article: "All his cries [Abbas] of despair, while mostly justified... "...one can honestly understand why Abbas turned to the international route..." "...for his claim that Israeli terror is equal to Palestinian terror, but that the Palestinians are living under occupation and are therefore morally supreme..." Even if this is an explanation, rather than an agreement or assertion, to entertain it as legitimate is insane. The PA has to go, & the vast majority of officials deported back to Libya & Tunisia. Let them immigrate to Europe from there. The world is fragmenting & falling into chaos - Russia & Iran in Syria is a first step, & the weak, feckless, ignorant socialist Obama will let the Western world fall into mayhem & dissolution while turning the US into a failed state.. The Fakestinians ARE NOT equivalent to Israel & the Jewish people - they are the "Trailer Trash of the Middle East", & need to crushed & dispersed, non withstanding bleeding heart Jewish Leftist ethos. Abbas is doing the traditional Middle Eastern "Hold me back, hold me back before I go crazy...". "Tachzik oti lifnai shebah ali hakrizah!". He should be let go to die in the streets, penniless & drinking Thunderbolt Red out of a brown paper bag.
7.  Palestinian state imposed from abroad
mat ,   uk   (10.01.15)
if we look back at what happened when west interfered in middle east countries most became fighting between themselves and violent Palestinians not going to be any better will be the same or most likely worst
8. CLUELESS So he wants someone else to run Palestine?
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (10.01.15)
Ducking and diving and ducking so that he never has to FACE UP to DECISIONS and just continue double dealing and double speaking so that even he is confused QUESTION WHAT ARE THE OPTIONS for PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD Option 1 2 State Solution Independent Israel and unified Palestine in Gaza and West Bank Option 2 3 State Solution Israel and Independent Gaza and Independent West Bank Option 3 2 State Solution Israel and Palestine created from expanded Gaza from Land Exchanges with Israel and possible Land Purchases from Egyptian Sinai Only when we know we can all work towards that goal an we can engage with Israel face to face Meanwhile prevarication, dodging, side stepping, grandstanding, theatrics all continue just so they don't have to answer,
9. Palestinian state
yousuf ,   Hebron   (10.02.15)
I dont like to live under a palestinan state >>but also i dont like to live under the Israeli occupation , why Israel dont give us the Israeli Identity and that all
10. Even an enemy must display a credible leader!
h-onesty   (10.02.15)
The disingenuous Palestinian leaders have failed their people. Without core credibility, it is hard to lead. Israel must boycott the failed leaders. Israel must support Palestinian dissidents who are honest, and can build a non-violent civil Palestinian society.
11. UN has no authority to create sovereign states
c   (10.02.15)
of course the un often violates its own charter since the un is dominated by muslim and third world nations.
12. Well, just like Israel was imposed from abroad
Carol ,   NYC   (10.02.15)
With a mere 5% Jewish population in Palestine, Zionists imposed a state from abroad and illegally invaded Palestine to establish a state. So what's the problem again?
