1. monkey boy should be sued for being so damn ugly!
Daisy ,   USA   (05.22.06)
This jerk's face definately shows the ugliness of his soul.
2. If Israelis can sue Pres. Ahmadinejad
Ellen Prescott ,   Southsea, Hampshire   (05.22.06)
then certainly, somebody should be able to sue Israeli figures for their crimes against the Palestinian nation. How hypocritical!! Israelis think they can trot around the globe, demanding to be treated in a superior fashion, yet they are in defiance of the international community, the UN, the EU, and the international court of justice. What a load of rubbish!
3. Only States can sue in the ICJ
Boris Eidelman ,   Brooklyn USA   (05.22.06)
of course under Article 34 of the Statute of the ICJ it plainly says that only states can sue other states. Next, all the big brain Israeli thinkers ought hold a conference and privately declare war on Iran. Why does Ynet run this nonsense? No one is suing anyone in the ICJ. Want to respond to Teheran's threats of genocide? Stop listening to Prof. Dore Gold and start listening to Profs. Oppenheimer and Yuval Neiman.

RobertK ,   Jerusalem   (05.22.06)
I think kissing you goodbye would be such a negative experience that I'd rather take you with me. That bad.
5. Wicked Desire to WIPE OUT Israel FORETOLD IN BIBLE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (05.22.06)
The present-day hatred for Israel and the evil desire to wipe out Israel was foretold by G-D in the Bible thousands of years ago. Bible, Psalm 83 Do not be silent, and O G-D, do not be still. For behold, Your enemies make an uproar, and those who hate You have exalted themselves. They make shrewd plans against Your people, and conspire together against Your treasured ones. They have said, "Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more." For they have conspired together with one mind; Against You they make a covenant...

8. to # you forgot that israelis are also in defiance of
(05.22.06)
GOD as well because of their crimes like if GOD told them that you ,israelis, are free to kill innocent lives without judgement.
9. HAMAS Charter of HATE Calls for GENOCIDE of JEWS
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (05.22.06)
Include Hamas in the lawsuit. The Hamas Charter of hate and genocide calls for the murder of all Jews. Palestinian Authority Muslims voted for the Hamas platform Genocide breaks international law. From the Hamas Charter: Israel, by virtue of its being Jewish and of having a Jewish population, defies Islam and the Muslims. Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it. The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Muslims, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad.
10. Snark: I'm sure he's deeply worried over this tactic.

Roee ,   Israel not Palstine   (05.22.06)
There are pleanty of Israeli miltrary leadres that cant go into the UK because of such law suits but you havent heard of an oppsite case tough your army is torturing people in Iraq. About political leaders please READ: Just five days before the International Criminal Court (ICC), the world's first permanent world tribunal to prosecute dictators and war criminals, came into existence in The Hague on 1 July, a Belgian appeals court dismissed a lawsuit against Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. The case accused him of being responsible for the massacre of hundreds of Palestinians and Lebanese in Beirut's Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in September 1982. The ruling, followed a year of fierce legal and diplomatic wrangling that severely jolted the Israeli establishment and provided a controversial backdrop for the formal launch of the ICC. The... WHOS THE HYPOCRITE? who is the one looking up frim his high horse at other with his? who is trying to boycott universties for the actions of another country?
12. Ellen attacks by parrotting lies and propaganda
Kate ,   London   (05.22.06)
"then certainly, somebody should be able to sue Israeli figures for their crimes against the Palestinian nation. " Israel has merely being defending herself against the genocidal rampages of a pseudo people intent on destroying her. " yet they are in defiance of the international community, the UN, the EU" In defiance of the international community? By not agreeing to commit suicide? Sorry about that. Besides, the "international community" is for the most part made up of ersatz-democracies, out-and-out dictatorships and medieval Islamofascist regimes. In defiance of the UN? Israel is not in breach of any UN Security Council resolutions which are the only ones that count. In defiance of the EU? Once again not only does the EU have no legal jurisdiction here, but it is made up of a group of virulently anti-Semitic states responsible for the genocide of the Jewish people in Europe. It is their existence which should be in question and not Israel's.
13. #2 Ellen
gm ,   south africa   (05.22.06)
I worry for you. You firstly, talk without knowing all the facts - remember there is another side to this story. Secondly, there never was a palestinian nation. Yasser Arafat created palestinians to obliterate Israel. Yes, local arabs were displaced, but they were not forced into exile - they chose to go at their 'leaders' advice. Today Jews are being displaced for arabs. You can say what goes around comes around. But when Israel is making positive steps towards peace and arabs continue to fight Israel - AND each other, it makes you wonder who really wants peace.

David ,   USA / ISRAEL   (05.22.06)
Just like the rest of the Brits Hypocrites Pompous Asses
15. Yeah - after israel rebuffed their "opinion" on the fence?
andrew ,   miami,fl   (05.22.06)
16. European laws against Holocaust denial
Muhammad-Ali ,   Montreal   (05.22.06)
don't apply in Iran, which is a sovereign state.
17. A futile exercise, given nature of ICJ
Larry ,   Eastbourne, UK   (05.22.06)
Do the Israelis proposing the legal action not remember the grotesque ruling by the ICJ on the security barrier? The ICJ has shown itself to be a racist antisemitic kangaroo court (just like the St Pancras Coroner's Court in fact) and it would be folly to expect any justice for Israel or the Jewish people from it.
18. #2-Ellen Prescott
Uziel   (05.22.06)
No problem, you can sue any Israeli you dislike (I suspect about 6 millions..) for committing "crimes against the Palestinian nation", b/c such an entity never existed in the history of mankind. You should control your hatred or face an aggravation of your eczema as a result of a psycho-somatic illness.
19. No matter what
Isac ,   Florida   (05.22.06)
Israel does, we will always have the Jew haters coming to this forum with the most stupid, completely unfounded and baseless comments. However, the left wingers and Arabs do not feel any shame to put their lies out, since there is a saying: repeat the lies often enough, at the end you will have a good number of people believing in it as it were the truth. Israel does do the right thing right now: before using the military option try all the other venues to embarass the nutheads in Iran.
20. Ellen Prscott
KAPARA   (05.22.06)
Relax everyone, ellen is just trying to say that so what if iran has stated on multiple occasions that israel should be wiped off the map, so what if they want nuclear weapons, so what if the leader of iran stated that it would be worth it to use a nuclear weapon on israel....so what if the leaders of the palestinians are vowed to israels destruction, no peace chances at all. ellen just wants us to wait....and do nothing. ellen, you are a moron, and you know it too.
21. NO DOUBT, WE HAVE THE BEST LAWYERS, IT'S A SLAM DUNK
david ,   SF,CA   (05.22.06)
22. Everybody can sue everybody!
naro ,   nyc   (05.22.06)
Lawsuit is a two way street. Israeli politicians can be saddled with thousands of lawsuits throughout the world. This is a bad game. Official complaints to the world bodies is another matter.
23. IMAGINE: A LITTLE FANTASY
SETTHERECORDSTRAIGHT   (05.22.06)
One bright early morning, Ahmedinejad wakes up, yawning and stretching. With his bathrobe on, he goes to fetch the morning paper. He is instead greeted by a preppy-looking young man of about 22, who is carrrying a brief case, but is casually dressed. "Good morning, is it Mr. Ahmedinejad, sir?" He replies: "Yes indeed. That's me. Remember my name pal." The young man retorts: "Then I guess this is for you, sir." The young man then hands him what appears to be a subpoena. It is a huge stack of papers enclosed in a large manila envelope. "I am being sued?!", he cries, jumping up and down in his bathrobe. Not aware that there is another surprise in the envelope, he pries it open: POW! COUGH, COUGH! "What's all this white powder?", he inquires weakly. Then SPLAT onto the concrete. -- Forgive me, I haven't yet had my morning coffee and my mind starts to wander, harping on fantasies this early in the morning.
24. 2.. Dear Ellen... Fear Not
richard Hitchings ,   methil   (05.22.06)
It would seem that you are receiving some hate mail from some of the correspondants of this form.... Fear not Dear Ellen... as when the Zionist loose the argument intellectually ....they invariably move ..to accuse of Antisemitism and various Hatreds... Its a standard response by them.
25. israeli diplomats to sue Ahmad.....
debbie ,   herzliya israel   (05.22.06)
Who the helll is this Ellen Prescott from Southsea? I am 100% convinced this is an arab, or Iranian, disguising her name. As comments containing slander and incitement are not supposed to be printed here why is she being allowed on these talkbacks? I have seen her name already on many talkbacks, and I think appropriate action should be taken against her.
26. 9 hey linda the genius - the article doesn't mention hamas
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (05.22.06)
wait, let me guess. i can see it coming: you're now going to post something else to show that you have anti-iranian cut-n-paste jobs.
27. does "muhammad-Ali" get paid to post here? or he has no life
koolam ,   Israel   (05.22.06)
28. Good joke!!
joe   (05.22.06)
Seldom I heard a good joke like this!!! By the way: At the begin og the Iraq-Robbery I read that the zionists will sue Iraq for a huge sum, 10 billions or so! For lost property and so on.... Can of course also be paid in oil... How far has this case grown?? "Headshrinkers" of this world - there is a lot of work ahead!!!
29. joe the joke
KAPARA   (05.22.06)
I guess in your world I am never to get my property in bagdad back or be compensated for it. I guess you hold jews to a higher level of accountability and responsibility than arabs. In any case, the jews that lived in iraq for thousands of years, are entitled to nothing in your world. You are an idiot.
30. Nr. 29
joe   (05.22.06)
Naeim Giladi A former iraqi jew. Arent his (or some of his) publications banned in Israel? Anyhow, he tells some interestin g stories. Hasn't HE been sued yet????
