1. the man is telling the truth
Khalid Amayreh ,   Jerusalem   (03.06.18)
2. Khalid-Yes the truth according to terrorists and murderers
(03.07.18)
3. Laughable. Confidence building measures.
Sam ,   Montreal   (03.07.18)
Confidence building measures means free concessions to the Palestinians. Palestinians know there will be no peace agreement so they want something upfront before they walk away. That means, money or a prisoner release or construction freeze.There will not be any agreement with the Palestinians because they feel they outnumber the Jews and will eventually win so they don't have to compromise. Peace to them means give them the West Bank for nothing and a right of return to put an end to the Jewish state. They want that done by international boycott if not by Arab armies. Negotiating 2 states for 2 peoples is just a Jewish and Western obsession. In reality, it doesn't exist.

5. One man's terrorist and murderer-is another man's freedom...
Khalid Amayreh ,   Jerusalem   (03.07.18)
fighter. You may be a filthy, ugly, despicable, evil, nefarious Nazi-like, beast-like reptile creature to me. Are you? of course not. You only support your tribe! irrespective of what it does.

I have always voted at my party's call
And I never thought of thinking for myself at all!
6. Leave religion alone! don't display thy ignorance.
Khalid Amayreh ,   Jerusalem   (03.07.18)
Be assured I read the Talmud from cover to cover. This is in addition to Chesromot Shas, Hatanya and other Chabadi literature. I have trillion bullets to shoot you with if you insist on morphing the conflict into a war between Judaism and Islam. Calm down baby! Know thy size...know thy limits! leave religion alone.
7. We have to get the Palestinian house in order FIRST
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (03.07.18)
How can we embark on any meaningful negotiations to statehood BEFORE 1. We have resolved the issue of Palestinian UNITY across Gaza and West Bank. How can any plans WORK when you have Palestinians in Gaza at odds with Palestinians in the West Bank? Or a PA at 'peace' with Israel but a Hamas still at war? 2.We have configured viable workable borders for ONE unitary and contiguous Palestinian state for ALL Palestinians from Gaza and West Bank and beyond alongside Israel. 3.We have made a determined effort to regain control of national finances, account for the annual $2 BILLION that the PA hands over to Hamas each year, STOP the $100 MILLION each and every year of PA 'blood money sucking the economy dry, the setting up of a Palestinian Sovereign Fund for the future benefit of all Palestinians and above all crush endemic corruption and stop the squandering of MILLIONS of dollars on grandioise half baked schemes, eye watering expense accounts, free foreign travel, HUGE salaries for the elite.... 4. Finally we must rid ourselves of the mindset that what is good for Israel is bad for Palestinians and what is good for Palestinians is bad for Israel. Because it is ONLY when BOTH national interests and goals CONVERGE can we resolve this conflict once and for all .
8. Always somebody else's fault...
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (03.07.18)
... never theirs.

A truly juvenile mentality.

THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
9. Freedom fighters don't deliberately murder children...
M. Davison ,   Ra'anana   (03.07.18)
That's called terrorism when it's done for "nationalistic purposes".

The freedom fighters of Europe never targeted German civilians and never went to the German homeland to murder civilians.

Your false claim discredits anything else you might want to say.
10. The chutzpah to try dictate USA spending and foreign policy
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (03.07.18)
The USA has every right to decide on what it spends it’s money on and where it builds its embassy
The PA has become so used to handouts that it thinks it can tell Trump what to do
Under the deal of the century the PA will no longer be an issue - watch
Trump has my support
