1. wonderful to see them quareling
ahmad ,   nablus   (10.17.05)
i am enjoying every moment to see this war criminal, sharon, been haunted by his racist "offsprings"...what esle can happen when a racist breeds another? the later finish off the first :) lovely indeed
2. ugh..
someone ,   somewhere   (10.17.05)
i agree with this article. this is nothing but revenge and is morally irrehesible. i TOTALLY disagreed to the universal cecession to terror (ie disengagement) but this is wrong beyond belief. you know what would have happened if the graves were left in gaza? well see the articles on the desicrations of the shuls for info. it was wrong to have to move the graves in the first place but that is 100000000 times better then letting them get desicrated. noam federman...you sir make me sick...
3. Upholding the law is unethical?
Ilan ,   Ariel   (10.17.05)
If I recall using technicalities of the law (some later to be found illegal) Ariel Sharon kept Noam Federman in prison and house arrest for over a year. Does he really expect gratitude for that? So over and above the 100,000's of State money needed to redress the wrong to Federman who was personally signalled out by Sharon there is also a personal message back. At least Federman is working within the law and not like Sharon above it.
4. Lawless dealings with the living and dead
Ben Temalion ,   Shiloh, MO USA   (10.17.05)
As arel scheinerman deals lawlessly with Israel's better half, it is no surprise that so he has with his own better half. May she rest in peace.
5. Re: "Leave Lili Alone"
Moshe Burt ,   Ramat Beit Shemesh   (10.17.05)
This article drives home the fact that a cast society exists in Israel. The Leftist effetes for which there is total democracy and their opponents for which there is a police state. You have cast the Religious in total negative, sub-human terms. Why should Arik Sharon and his deceased wife be any more privileged than the 10,000 Jews he evicted at legalized gunpoint and now taunts and mistreats by withholding the compensation that they are entitled to? And why should his deceased wife be any more privileged than the deceased Gush Katif residents which he hard-heartedly uprooted from their graves? Leaders lead by example and you are a poor example of a national leader!
6. To #5
Ilana ,   Jerusalem   (10.17.05)
Police state? The religious right has hijacked this country for its own personal goals for far too long. It's about time it was subject to the rules of democracy.
7. political scores ?!
Michael ,   tel aviv   (10.17.05)
have you any idea how primitive you sound ? you want to settle 'political scores ?'. suggest you move out of the pre-1938 era and into the new millenium. Michael
8. response to no. 1
michael ,   tel aviv   (10.17.05)
your primitiveness is showing ! Get with what's happening today and forget about 20 years ago. Live in the present and you might gain an understanding or what's happening in the world since you last looked at it. Sorry for trying to wake you up but just telling it like it is. Mike
9. One Law for Sharon, another for Gush Katif
Dudu ,   Kfar Sava   (10.17.05)
This article's a joke. What is this guy trying to say? Its OK for the Sharon Family to break the law? A law's a law and if Lilly is buried unlawfully she should be moved, just like the Gush people.
10. ALFEI MENASHE
samuel blair ,   boca raton usa   (10.19.05)
MR.MENASHE IS A VERY INTELLIGENT PERSON IS OF COURSE CORRECT. SHARON'S MISDEEDS SHOULD NOT CAUSE HIS FAMILY MORE SADNESS. SHARON HAS BROUGHT MISERY AND SADNESS AND DEATH TO ISRAELIS WITH MORE DEATH SOON. THE PROPER WAY TO DEAL WITH A MAN WHO HAS MADE A VERY TRAGIC MISTAKE IS TO REMOVE HIM FROM OFFICE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. EITHER HE RETIRES, LIKE PRESIDENT NIXON, OR ISRAEL HAS AN ELECTION AS SOON AS IS POSSIBLE. HOPEFULLY BIBI NETANYAHU WILL BRING PEACE TO ISRAEL. SITTING HERE IN FRONT OF MY COMPUTER AND READING SO MANY NEWS EMAILS FROM MANY ISRAELI MEDIA IT IS VERY APPARENT THAT THERE CAN NOT BE PEACE WITH THE ARABS UNTIL THE IDF ATTACKS AND DESTROYS EVERY TERROR GROUP IN THE GAZA,WEST BANK AND THE HIZB'ALLAH. YOU CAN NOT BELIEVE ARABS AND THAT INCLUDES MUBARAK! THAT IS VERY OBVIOUS. UNTIL THE IDF DOES ITS JOB MORE ISRAELIS WILL DIE. SHALOM
11. Leave Lili alone - midah k'neged midah
Steve Katz ,   Forest Hills, NY   (10.23.05)
While on the face of the matter, it WOULD seem that Noam Federman is making the issue a personal one (regarding the move of Lili Sharon's grave). However, this government has been particularly infamous for its disregard for rules and procedures (here, placing a grave in an inappropropriate location). Additionally, there is a Torah precept in which one is often punished for sins and disregard of Jewish law in the same manner as the violations they committed. Perhaps this would be a case of "midah k'neged midah" and is justified as appropriate punishment.
