Tallagada Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 15 minutes ago, Morch said: Peres did not change his opinions about settlements? You better read the OP again. While have another go at the article you linked. Specially, the bit quoted is related to "I interviewed Peres a second time, in 1976,...". Alleging that Rabin's differences with Peres had to do with the latter's supposedly pro-settlement views is not supported by anything posted. Alleged...If like you pretend, knows more than anybody about Peres and Rabin, you should not have any doubt about hius views...after 1976 of course... 14 minutes ago, Morch said: Where did Rabin "pointed this out quite clearly"? And doubt anyone labeled Lievberman a "peace bringer". Troll away... http://articles.latimes.com/1993-05-05/news/mn-31529_1_foreign-minister you re served, about Lieberman, if you have read the full exchange you would have understood...but as usual you jump on the keyboard...answering my comment in three separate answers, show clearly your lack of focus..

Kiwiken Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 He may have been a warrior when called upon but he also negotiated the best hope for peace Israel ever had sadly rejected by the Knesset. Now the road to peace is much harder. Men like him will be missed by both Israeli and Palestinian. Hard but fair and pragmatic. Not easy to find on today's world stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiantFan Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Whateva..... CNN coverage is extensive. Almost non-stop. Let's pay homage and move on. I guess it stopped the debate marathon. BBC had a good bio on him. 15 minutes of his life.. Then moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She should go of course, but that's kind of unusual. Of course trump shouldn't go. I don't think he even knew him. But Peres seems to have "known" Trump: Not sure what the other stuff is about.

Jingthing Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 The funeral of Shimon Peres, live streaming. It turns out (understandably) that Hillary Clinton didn't attend. Presidents Obama and Bill Clinton. Abbas as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 A sweet story about Peres' long term Pinoy caretaker: Quote Ferdz Capacia, Shimon Peres’s Filipino caregiver, said goodbye to his “VIP boss” in a tender note on Facebook after Israel’s ninth president passed away on the morning of Wednesday, September 28. Capacia wrote that he would miss Peres’s smile, his “big voice” and the way he wished him goodnight in Hebrew before he went to sleep, saying “Lalya tov, Freddy.” Capacia thanked the elder statesman for “trusting a Filipino like me.” http://forward.com/news/israel/350961/shimon-peres-gets-heartfelt-facebook-goodbye-from-filipino-caregiver/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Not surprising. Anyone opposed to the existence of Israel would hate Peres as he did so much to make Israel survive and prosper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
