1. Why the charade?
Ed ,   USA   (09.28.17)
Why does Trump continue to lie that a peace deal will come from this administration?
2. Friedman is a good Jew first and foremost and US ambassador
Delphi   (09.29.17)
second.
This fact will not help him in his career.
3. Israel IS NOT occupying anything
david ,   hadera   (09.29.17)
the land was ruled by the ottamans until Jordan took it away from them. It WAS NEVER Palestinian land. Israels ambassador should not be using words like "occupying" at all
4. Ambassador Friedman, of your statements Minister Regev
Sarita Montiel ,   Israel   (09.29.17)
would say: "Cut the bull$hit!"
stop with this charade go back to Washington and talk to the people you called "State Department lifers" and move the US Embassy to Jerusalem.
better yet...stop with this charade and go back to the US and take up your bankruptcy law practice.
Truly we don't need you or any other Trump Court Jew (Hebrew: Yehudon) here in Israel.
5. Tough guy Ambassador! ha! where's the embassy? still in TLV!
Sally Forth ,   Israel   (09.29.17)
This man got this job because he was Trump's bankruptcy lawyer.
He's a real tough guy...he was going to move the US embassy to Jerusalem.
when the State Dept said "no"
then he was going to live in his fancy Jerusalem apartment and declare it the US embassy.
But the State Dept said "no" again.
So with tail firmly planted between his legs he lives and works in Tel Aviv!

He's so busy that he has no time to attend AACI's memorial service for fallen American and Canadian Israelis
He's so busy that he doesn't go to meetings where Trump's other people tell Netanyahu: "You can be a pig, but don't be a hazer!"
and then he gives this interview! Wow! this guy is just as professional as his president!

the americans have no reason to mediate anything at all.

the arabs are dying to see the americans and the europeans crush the jews'
necks since they know that they are not able by themselves to destroy
the jewish state.
7. Amazing how false news gives impression its not 2% but 92%
Alan ,   SA   (09.29.17)
8. Yo, Friedman-bashers:so an American Jew has no right to make
Delphi   (09.29.17)
a living in politics without becoming a "Court Jew?!
9. Liar
A . Shafiq Ahmed ,   Coimbatore   (09.29.17)
lawyer liar
10. Like a breath of fresh air
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (09.30.17)
Someone who is prepared to say it like it is
At what point will the Arabs accept that their project to remove the Jews from their ancestral homeland is a failure and is over
The Arabs can ethnically cleanse the Yarzidis from Iraq, the Maronite Christians from South Lebanon, the Armenians from Turkey and the Kurds from Iraq, Syria and Iran but the Jews are going to fight back
11. Israel's friends can't help us till we help ourselves
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.29.17)
Considering that Israel has yet to declare sovereignty in Judea and Samaria, Ambassador David Friedman is doing all he can do to support Israel. As long as Israel pretends we are willing to cede our ancestral heartland of Judea and Samaria and become a 9 mile wide concentration camp to please our genocidal "Palestinian" foes, even our best friends have to accept the hoax. They have no choice. Israel's friends can't help us till we help ourselves.
12. upset ......
steve s   (09.30.17)
The Palestinians are upset because the US Ambassador will not repeat their rhetoric. The Palestinians strategy is to repeat the same misinformation enough times until a majority believes it to be the truth. It is unwise to believe anything said by a Palestinian.
13. For over 4,000 years Israel was, is, and shall be Israel.
BBB   (09.30.17)
The only problem is the squatting. lying, stealing, terrorists AKA as 'palestinians.,
14. A shame that president Trump hasn't honored his promise to
BBB   (09.30.17)
move the US Embassy to Jerusalem.

It would have had monumental changes and resolutions.

!- It would have ended once and for all any false Arab Palestinian claim to Israel.

2- It would have ended all terror due to the chasm that now exists.

3- The third temple would have begun construction by now.
15. Long before any organization
BBB   (09.30.17)
of men was the initial birth of Israel.

I don't think any nation ever was conquered and was reborn as was Israel and

to top it all off, no other nation with this story was ever foretold eons before

the actual event.

Amazing how the people of the book held these truths and have seen them

actualized.

Long live Israel !!!!
16. ALL OF JUDEA AND SAMARIA AND THE GOLAN ARE ISRAEL !
