1. Just an old Jew-hating moron.
David ,   Hartford USA   (05.02.18)
It's obvious the Arabs don't care who represents them. A pumpkin with a painted face could have helped the Arabs more than Abbas has. What a shame. Decades utterly wasted. What's the total accomplishment of Abbas's decades of 'leadership?' Random Arab attacks on Israelis.

In a normal organization, anyone so immensely useless would have been replaced. The Arabs should be clamoring for his removal, but they don't.

So what's going on?

Either the Arabs are total slackers and have no desire for improving their condition or they actually support Abbas and his schemes.

Either way, the Arabs lose. And after 70 years, they still haven't figured this out.
2. Well duh
Rami ,   Helsinki   (05.02.18)
Oslo was just them playing time. Rabin was a military genius but a dumb politician.
3. rivlin, a balance politican and president

rivlin tries his best to lead the nation symbolically. he says abbas, the right arm of arafat is no peace partner. this we could have told you way back. this is not europe. peace does not exist in the middle east except for hopeless dreamers peres and herzog.

of course gabbay says he is a partner. what bloody planet did gabbay grow up in. the only accommodation pal would make is to dismantle israel, and then make Jews dzimmis. this is something seemingly acceptable to some israeli journalists and poets

it is amazing to see politicians, some of whom are babes in the woods come out with their rosy visions. regardless, i would never vote for lapid livni herzog and gabbay. i would not vote for ehud barak again. in fact generals make poor leaders save a few. also when they age, they get tired of the battles and say what the hell-leave gaza, parts of west bank and we'll see.

go watch charlie rose interview of lapid and see what a smug arrogant interview he gave totally out of touch with security.

terror is part of the middle east. olmert ran from terror generally until the last moment. he offered mind blowing concessions. assuming terror continues, would you rather have lieberman coldly handling the hamas insurrection unflinchingly or do you want gabbay holding another peace session with abbas offering concession?


the answer is obvious. go with leieberman.
4. ALL his comments and actions show hes no peace partner

5. Only peaceful part of the PLO is ¨peaceful protests¨

The reason the US keeps repeating her invitation to the PA to join the peace process is because they are positioning for the full rejection of the PA. They will shortly embrace Jordan as Palestine. That’s why Jordan cancelled the citizenship of the four top leaders of the PA. This was initiated by the US rather than the King. After 100 years of clashes, 70 years of conflict and a quarter-century since the Oslo Accords, which were supposed to have given the Palestinians peace and land of their own, it looks like they are losing the little they have managed to obtain. The Palestinian nationalist movement was always a mirror image of Zionism; in other words, it was born out of and in response to the advent of Zionism. This means that the battle against the Zionist idea and the desire to serve as an antithesis to everything that Israel symbolizes were and are simply a common denominator, rather than a defining element of the Palestinian identity. This is not enough to sustain a victorious national movement and lead it to success
7. And THAT is what has set off ref alarm in Rivlin's head?!
(05.03.18)
Abu Adolf Mazen's doctorate in Shoah denial (from Moscow University) had been known for ages,
his murderous, terrorist past as well.
So why the hell had our successive governments been doing business (of giving up on parts of our Land) with this creep?!
8. WHAT ELSE IS NEW? ISREAKL NEVER TRUSTED THIS ABU MAMZER
IRANIAN JEW ,   LALA LAND   (05.03.18)
to begin with anyway. He finally snapped, said what he really thought all along. Hey, Abu Idiot!!! Thank you for really killing any hopes fr anything. Your people will become poorer again tmorrow and the day after. You amy as well run away to Little Terhan (Beirut), and just wait there. Maybe one day after licking the fat rats behind for yerars he will let you settle there.
9. "Palestinian" actions prove they're mortal foes
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.03.18)
Abbas is a vicious, Holocaust denying mass murderer. But he is only a symptom of the problem. The obvious problem is that "Palestinians" are mortal foes of Israel. They always have been. The "Palestinian" Mufti of Jerusalem, and his enthusiastic "Palestinian" followers murdered Jews every chance they got, long before Israel declared independence.

"Palestinians" are nothing but predictable. We know they try to harm us in every humanly possible way. That is what mortal foes do.
It doesn't matter what figure head leads "Palestinians", they are Israel's mortal foes and Israel needs to treat them as such. End the mad flow of Israeli support which keeps "Palestinians" on our land tormenting us.
