Brod ,   USA   (06.19.06)
Only the Arab Islamist-Jihadists who are anti-Israel and anti-Jews would be disturbed by this. They hate people who love Israel. It is time for the Arab states to root out all the hate preachers in their countries. This is the only effective way for them to combat home grown terrorists.

12. Are Egyptions our friends ???
Harry   (06.20.06)
Only for the sake of stealing territory from the Jews. Whenever we are ready to relinquish territory whether its camp david, Gush Katif (expelling Jews from their territory) they are our friend. Basically the egyptions are our friends when we do the work for them. Humiliating Jews.
13. G-D Bless John Paintsil!

14. EGYPTIAN State-controlled paper PRAISED TEL AVIV BOMBING
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.20.06)
of INNOCENTS The "peace" that Egypt gives Israel: YNETNEWS (04.18.06, 07:51) Tel Aviv attack. 'There will be more' Egyptian paper praises Tel Aviv bombing State-controlled Al Gomhuria calls Monday's suicide bombing 'sacrificial, martyrdom attack,' warns more attacks to follow Associated Press An Egyptian state-controlled newspaper praised Monday's suicide attack in Tel Aviv, which killed nine people and wounded dozens, calling it an act of sacrifice and martyrdom. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3241041,00.html The deployment of Egypt's military on Israel's border at the invitation of Israeli leaders is astonishing and treasonous. M.K. Steinitz stated: Egyptian military "has been training for war against Israel for the past 10 years." In 2004, U.S. Congressman Tom Lantos in the House International Relations Committee, warned Egypt was building up its military in preparation for a future war with Israel. Egypt receives from the U.S. $1.7 billion dollars in aid annually.
15. And this is the Peace we are aiming for with all Arabs
Besalel ,   Kew Gardens, NY   (06.20.06)
Egypt is a country we are at "peace" with. We gave away so much land for such a high quality peace. All Jews pray that Israel can have such peace with the Palestinians, the Syrians, etc. Israelis must have such little regard for themselves if they think that this is the most they can be tolerated by its neighbors. Shame on Egypt but an even greater shame on Israel.
16. Does anyone understand this?
Robby ,   San Jose, USA   (06.20.06)
Is there anything that has to do with Israel or the Jews, other then killing them, that doesn't upset the Arab world? Are all Arabs obsessed? Jealous? Bored?
17. Primitive Egyptian media
Daniel ,   Israel   (06.20.06)
The xenophobic and antisemitic Arab media sees Mossad agents around every corner. It was naturally Mossad that stopped Egypt from the World Cup right? Despite the "peace" between Egypt and Israel, Egypt still behaves like an enemy state and only childish Arab racist medias can make a story of a happy and innocent football player from Ghana waving an Israeli flag. Yes Egypt, in civilized societies you wave flags in friendship, not burn your neigbour's them.
18. MAY HASHEM BLESS JOHN PAINTSIL .
SHLOMO   (06.20.06)

21. How many.....
Ram ,   London   (06.20.06)

22. GO Paintsil!!!! we love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
am ehad ,   Israel   (06.20.06)
23. Wow, the stupidity exceeds all levels
(06.20.06)
Funniest thing is that probably 90% of the Arabs believe that.
24. if he were a "mossad agent" wouldnt he be less conspicuous?
Isralei ,   Israel   (06.20.06)
25. GO ISRAEL [=*=],
Israel   (06.20.06)
26. Sheesh, you Egyptian fans, GET A LIFE! Go Ghana!
Howard ,   Pacific Coast, USA   (06.20.06)
The only reason why there is still tension between Israel and Egypt is people like these, and in particular the "sports analysts" and journalists who believe in spreading lies and hatred rather than encouraging the brotherhood of sports. If you make a living by despising Israel, and teaching others to despise Israel, you are part of the problem, and not the solution, in the middle east. There are also Egyptians who want to live and let live, and to those far more enlightened people I say, salaam, shalom.
27. WHO CARES?
Hussein Issah ,   UK   (06.20.06)
WHY ARE EGYPTIANS UPSET? IS IT AFRICAN SOLIDARITY? I BEG TO DIFFER....THEY ARE ARABS AND WE ARE AFRICANS....WE ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THEIR POLITICS
28. Here is truly a black Hero
Steve ,   USA   (06.20.06)
B"H This is the breaking of the bonds of Jewish slavery in action. Congradulations John Paintsil. You made Ghana proud! And now I finally have a soccer team to chear on in the world cup along with the USA team. Here is truly a black Hero, a roll model for all nations.
29. I do not know why Arabs should care! Just make sure that
Palestinian   (06.20.06)
Arab teams do well in the Mondial... John is free to do whatever he wants. We are also free to cheer whoever. The point is that we should think how to objectively get respect of others, and not just keep blaming others. When was the last time an Arab team reached the Finals!!
30. PEACE LIKE THIS WITH ARABS, IS KILLING ISRAEL!!!
MAYBE WINNIG ANOTHER ,   WAR WILL BRING PEACE   (06.20.06)
