100% wrong - this says Israel builds settlements and attacks Gaza with intention to stop peace agreement! I live in Israel - and almost all Israelis would make peace if we had a non-terrorist partner in peace - this is one-sided, biased, borderline anti-semitic feature....boo 60 minutes! Did you even mention the years of bus bombings and missile attacks?
Peace out of reach? Only with the UN around and dolts like CBS reporting only what and how they're TOLD to report, yeah. Of course. With that kind of mis-management anything would be out of reach
i still want to believe in 2 state, cuz i think it's the only peacful solution and Jerusalem a city for both , iam a Palestinian just by name havent been there i wish to visit it just once before i die :(

But; who can stop the Sun from rising, melting the snow, and revealing the dog shit to everybody to see and. The Sun Starts to Rise & the Snow Starts to Melt.

I live in a country which doesn't support Apartheid so we are issued passports with travel restrictions. My old passport was stamped "Not valid for travel to South Africa". That was when South Africa was still an Apartheid state. I hope My new passport will be stamped "Not valid for travel to Israel" because that country is an Apartheid state and no decent law abiding nation should condone it.

the settlers are the people who keep israel united and strong. If we give the palis any land they will quickly turn it into a shit-hole launching pad like gaza. no negotiations with Hamas. we need a leader who is not afraid to wipe out ham-ass at all costs. what do you prefer: 1000 people on both sides dieing once then no more death or 300 people dieing every year non-stop
we need a party like Shas that is not afraid to tell the world to shut up and then attack gaza until ham-ass is destroyed.
CMS News made a big courage to make this report. Let the American taxpayers know why they are paying billions of dollars to this evil illegal country of Israel.
Americans are so fool that the national debt is soo high that their grand-grandchildren will be paying it back with 25% income tax and other taxes.
First greeting to the great 60 Minutes and the NBC, now we all know why should we support Iran, now we all know that no peace with Israel and the whole world should hate unjust, Israel is the evil most hatful thing ever exist to humanity, if we hate the Nazi we should hate Israel, if we support what's right we should support the weak and hate the thugs "Israel" repeat after me Death To Israel
Seems to me that, basically, neither side has been willing to compromise all along. And if there is to be any permanent peace, a lot of such compromises will have to be made.
action in order to create a "safer future" for the Israelis. Second point. Look how the settlers cry for their homes when they were dragged and taken from it. Think about how they feel, losing their homes, losing their illegal homes. Think now about how Palestinians feel on a daily basis. No matter where they are in the world, we have no home. Our home has been taken illegally, stripped from us without any sort of consideration.
Firstly, thank you so much CBS for posting this special, shedding some light for the American public onto the Palestinian plight for justice. Throughout the piece, I came up with two points that I've never thought about before. They say that in 10 years Palestinians will out number Israelis. This statistic makes sense now, because it's the Israeli's way for justifying the mass slaughtering of Palestinian women and children. They see the young as potential threats, so they will take any form of
If the Jewish Settlers in the West Bank were instructed by God to stay there as stated by one of their members in this piece, then God is small-minded, hateful and deserving of our scorn.
you can blame that cocksucker mahmoud abbas, who is splitting the falasteezies in two. Learn from the lebanese, fight for it. then spit on each other.
it's amazing how things are so parallel....tamils in sri lanka are suffering the wrath of the sinhalese. Like the West Bank, we want Eelam a separate state, but sadly our conflict is not in the main stream media because the key players are not close allies with the US
The Israeli settler lady is nuts. It is so sad that even one of the oldest faiths can't see that the whole world is 'holy land' and it belongs to all people of the world. We all have a right to be here. Why is that land so much more special than any other? It makes no sense.
And don't give me any "God said.." bullshit, it doesn't hold water.
Actually this report ignored most of the facts on the ground and ignores history. There was never a palestinian state and people in history. try to find it-it doesnt exist. Jordon was created at the same tima as Israel to be the Palestinian State. 80 percent of its people are Palestinian.
Palestinians have been murdering jews for over 60 years. when israeli soldiers come into houses for surveillance, its because they are forced to not because they want to.
call then Palestinians, jordanians, or arabs.... they were living there! why do you think 80% of Jordan is Palestinians? isnt it because Israelis kicked them away? arabs and jews were living side by side for centuries without any problems. look at YOUR history and tell me why ONLY 17 out of 130 knesset members ellected in 1949 were born on what you claim to be Israel... the rest came from everywhere. How come those have more right than the people who lived on that land for centuries??
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
no israel didnt kick anyone away. thats the myth. it sounds good to say that but i study the facts. most ran away when they were told to leave by the arab countries so that they could push all the jews into the sea. notice that there are many arabs living in israel and no jews can live in the arab countries . i wonder why? because arabs say they want to kill every jew even if he never stepped foot in israel but you never hear jews threatning to kill all arabs. i wonder why???
OK they left, but Israel didnt let them go back. isnt it the same thing? my family still has documents to prove farms property there in the city of Yafa "I dont know the current name of it". There is still jews in Yemen, Egypt, Morroco... Syria used to have a decent jewish community untill they left in the 80s. If Arabs say they wanna kill jews, they mean zionists, its because the lay arab thinks that jew=zionist. and I belive you know why they hate zionists.
i think thats its wrong for your family not to own their legaly owned property. in fact Yafa is evenly mixed today with both arabs and jews. the arabs have voting rights and get medical insurance and are mostly happy with their lives. Iv'e been there and spoke to many. by the way history will tell you that the entire land including manyarab areas were owned by jews for many many years before the arabs ever came there. the jews were kicked out many times.
yea arabs do have voting rights and knesset members. Jews had voting rights in arabic countries too, but they were a tiny minority and not able to get elected. The problem is that zionists accept part of the history, not all of it. the jews came from Egypt 3 thousnads years ago, Was this land empty? Kanaan (Arab= kanaan+ Adnaan+ kahtan) was in place. then the Islamic state took it from Rome, the european crossades came... My point is that zionists consult part of the history not all of it.
even they remember part of the religion. Israel is a promissed land.... ok .. but when Moses and his fellows arrived there, God turned them back and punished them. so even when talking religion ( and I am talking Judaism) one can realize they are not rightful. Let alone what muslims religion says about that ;)
I'm glad 60 minutes had the courage to show what 90% of the US media don't dare question. Even if this conflict receives huge media coverage, most people don't understand the nature of those horrible settlements, how the goal is exactly to prevent peace.
I wish she would, but i'm sure Livni is bluffing when she's talking about expelling those settlers. Sharon retired the settlers from Gaza only to expand in the West Bank and better starve and torture the Gazans.
Much as I would like to believe that Livini is being forthright, I'm inclined to believe that she would only remove a few token "illegal" settlements, like ones demolished at the end of this piece.
Politicians the world over carefully parse their meanings, and she's no different. If Obama ever gets interviewed by Pakistani TV and is asked about US airstrikes, I imagine he'll offer an answer calculated to sooth the local viewers.
The epitome of excellent investigative journalism. Asking tough and critical questions, relentlessly pursuing answers. Not only did this connect with the wider conflict, but Bob Simon does not forget to find what this conflict means for those who have to live through it. Great work.
i respect 60 minutes.
