(07.22.06)
32. To all leftists!
AB ,   The Rock   (07.23.06)

33. Swap these Morans
S Judah ,   london   (07.23.06)
When the dust settles swap these morans in an exchange. And in case anyone's say it's easy for me say , many of my closest relatives live in Haifa and are in the army. This is their view too.
34. UNBELIEVABLE SICK MORONS
Scott ,   Auckland, NZ   (07.23.06)
There's at least one in every group. Here we have them all together . Its one thing for sure - they wouldnt be doing ANY of it in countries run by dictators, theocracy or communism. JUST STUPID PEOPLE. Hopefully they can be kept out of the way while everyone else strives to protect the democracy that allows them to protest in the first place. SICKENING
35. Anti-war Demos
Rudy Ramos, Sr. ,   Oceanside, CA USA   (07.23.06)
The demostrations should be against the U.N., and the Security Council triumvirate of France, Russia. and Kofi Anan. U.N. Resolution 1559 demanded 1) Syrian army leave Lebanon, which ostensibly they did; and 2) the Hellabaloos and Hamas disarm - they did not. By the way, the Hellabaloos atarted this conflict in July 2007.
36. Let them Protest!
David A ,   usa   (07.23.06)
They're just ticked because their powder-puff parade was cancelled in Jerusalem and they are between parties now. Useless paracites! They should be sitting in a field in Northern Israel instead of sunning their bodies and taking up good air in Tel Aviv
37. BEAUTIFUL Jews
Yasmine ,   Ankara   (07.23.06)
We thought you were all child killers, but here we can read that many care and are against the slaughter of Lebanese women and children. Maybe there can be peace after all, if there is people like you in Israel. One day, In-shallah.
38. Those Hizbulla, Hamas, are like a pack of wolves
John ,   NZ   (07.23.06)
you mean those leftist can't see that. Are they blinded by women and children kill by IDF. That's the reality of war. Those idiots use women and children as bombs, shield and every disgusting thing anyone can imagine. To sympatise with them is to have sympathy to the devil
39. Underground Communism
David P Lubbers ,   Jacksonville Fl. US   (07.23.06)
The Red T-shirts and Flags with the former "Evil Empire" USSR's Hammer and Sickle adorned on them, that this so called group of "Peace" activists are wearing should be a wake up call to the people of Israel that you have enemies within. Russia is now under the leadership of a man that cannot throw off his communist past. Vladamir Putin was the head of the KGB during the Soviets Golden Years and he intends on dismantling anything that resembles democracy and replace it with a form of government he believes worked in the past. He actively supports all of Israels Arab foes and is do his level best to aid his Arab allies in their goal of Israels destruction in exchange for Arab oil.
40. HAMAS GOAL: CONQUEST OF ISRAEL & EUROPE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (07.23.06)
Words, not actions, was all that America and Europe required of PLO/Palestinian Authority terrorist organization, who broke ALL agreements. For many years, American and European tax dollars has financed the war against the Jews. The military wing of Palestinian Authority Abbas's Fatah party, the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, is responsible for massive numbers of terrorist atrocities against Jewish innocents. Exchanging Jewish land for war, Global Islamic Terror State One has been installed in Gaza with an Al Qaeda and Hizbullah presence. Iranian Revolutionary Guard units train Fatah and Hamas in the Jew-cleansed areas of Gaza. In the land for war Jew-cleansed areas of global terrorist paradise Gaza, IslamoFascist religious supremacists enjoy complete freedom to attack and fire a daily, incessant barrage of rockets on the defenseless Jewish civilians of Sderot and now Ashkelon. U.S. EU, UN, and Russia are determined to duplicate the success of Gaza with the installation of Road Map Global Islamic Terror State Two in Judea, Samaria and parts of Jerusalem, bringing Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Netanya, Ra'anana, Kfar Saba, Afula, Hadera, Tiberias and the international airport within rocket firing range of the Islamists. The Hamas goal is conquest of Israel and Europe: HAMAS Targets Spain By Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld FrontPageMagazine.com | January 2, 2006 It is not only Palestine that children in the West Bank and Gaza are asked to liberate; now they are asked to liberate Seville. The HAMAS children’s magazine, Al-Fateh, in a recent issue, (No. 66), tells the children about the city called Asbilia (Seville) and calls on them to free it, together with the whole country, from the infidels and to reinstate Muslim rule... Qaradawi, calls on Muslims to conquer Europe, saying: “Islam will return to Europe as a conqueror and a victor... Apparently encouraged by successful Jihad against Israel, HAMAS is now raising the ante, going international. Just as they have indoctrinated a generation of Palestinian children to commit suicide attacks against Israelis, they are now expanding their targets to include the rest of the Caliphate – beginning with Spain. It is only a matter of time, before today’s Palestinian children, and others exposed to HAMAS’ publications start offering themselves up for the next stage of Jihad in Spain. http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=20726

i have been living these wars since i was born that was 1959 ,dont you guys think every bady have enough,i think the best way to solve this is avote in the united nation with no veto power i sure ofter that every bady will have alasting peace.
42. Hmm, Commies taste like chicken!
Connie Miller ,   McPherson, KS   (07.23.06)
How many idiot teenagers and thier loser teachers dress-up and play 'holier than thou radical' and while everyone one else has to deal with kidnappings, rockets, and suicide bombers? Hey neo-commies, that red hammer and sickle getup makes your head look fat and other 'parts' look very small. While were talking fashion, lose the yellow streak. It's sooooo last century.
43. Tel Aviv Protests
mike shelton ,   Yuma, AZ USA   (07.23.06)
I'm surprised to read via the Drudge Report, of a large protest against the Lebanon operation. Don't they understand that Hezbollah must have accumulated and stored missiles for months before choosing this time to launch them? You would be crazy not to go after them. The only mistake you've made in my estimation is going after the civilian infrastructure and making the Lebanese army your opponent instead of your ally. I think you should have sent forces right into southern Lebanon to clear them out, and left the civilian sectors alone. Then again, I'm not one of your planners and don't know all the details. This is a time for Israel to be united in ending the border threat once and for all. That is the key to "Peace Now".
44. USEFUL IDIOTS
JACK ,   BOSTON   (07.22.06)
Vladmir Lenin, the father of Soviet Communism, referred to this crowd as "Useful Idiots." Keep a close watch on these people.
45. need to work on American Jewish community
lai ,   America   (07.23.06)
As an Is supporter, I hope you can convince the American Jewish community to give a strong message to the leftist Dems at the poll in Nov. The democratic party is now the home of anti-Israel/anti-Jewish leftists now.
46. disgusting
karl ,   kauai, USA   (07.23.06)
Half my family here is Jewish. They are embarressed as I am over this BS. I am against terrorism in all it's forms and right now Israel is leading the way to hell. Let's see the names of te 500+ dead in Lebenon right now. Israeli's have returned to WW11 and this time they ar on the other side. DISGUST!
47. Hateful, laughingly stereotypical remarks
Harley ,   USA   (07.23.06)
You all need to try thinking for once. Whatever ''side'' you're on.
48. mentally disturbed protestors
josef ,   los angeles, u.s.a.   (07.23.06)
these people are mentally disturbed. have they forgotten the six million plus. this is an issue of survival, not a political issue. let them move to syria or iran if they feel as they show. this type of demonstration crosses the line of valid discussion.
49. Well, "Ask Attila"!
sk ,   USA   (07.22.06)
OK, Attila. We all know you have cool spiked hair, dress well, and look great in your shades. But how many DID YOU SEE PERSONALLY at the rally? And please, drop the "sabra cool" veneer and answer the question. sk
50. Haaretz says "more than 2500"
sk ,   USA   (07.23.06)

51. Ok so they're wrong but they have a right to protest ....
Andy   (07.23.06)
in a democratic country like Isreal...plus Efi who lives near Rabin Square says it was 40 or 50 people. Who cares? My heart is with the brave
52. Holding up USSR flags???
Jenny   (07.23.06)
Up until now I thought I had seen everything from the leftists but this one takes the cake. What, Stalin didn't kill enough Jews or other people for that matter? Only 20 million + people? Yes, please wave the Soviet Union flag they have done so much good for the world. Why don't you ask the Russian Olim what they thought of the USSR? Can somebody tell me how many people were at the counter protest?
53. Treasonous behavior
Drumgoole ,   Newark NJ   (07.22.06)
First of all, I am suspicious that thousands of demonstrators were at the communist and Meretz rally. Several respondents offered eyewitness accounts that there were far fewer demonstrators. In a free and open society, there are always people who love to fight the majority and under most circumstances, this is a good thing. However, with Israel fighting a defensive war to stop rockets from being fired on Israeli cities, and secure the release of kidnapped IDF soldiers, the call for soldiers to refuse orders is not dissent, it is treason. Likewise, for a former cabinet minister, the despicable Shulamit Aloni, to openly oppose her country's struggles against terrorism and to be in cahoots with the communists is sickening. She reminds me of a former US attorney General, Ramsey Clark, who supports Iran and it's terror network. How he was confirmed by the senate says a lot about the ineptitude of the FBI and other agencies during J. Edgar Hoover's time.
54. Get them to meet fact to face with Hezbollah
Jack ,   Detroit, USA   (07.23.06)
These "peace at all cost" hippies should volunteer to meet face to face with Hezbollah. These people are proof that liberalism is a mental disorder.
55. Unfortunately
SHELLY ,   Israel   (07.23.06)
Sorry to say but the crying left has a right to speak out against the war. But they do not have the balls to do it in Haifa or Naharia. They can only protest a few meters from their pubs and night life. As far are our Arab citizens are concerned I really do not give a dam what they feel if they could kill me and get away with they would! In a blink of an eye . Most of them are a 5th column anyway. Besides the fact for 6 years our governments turned a blind eye to what was going on over the border. We did nothing to stop their arms build up because we were trying to be peace full people. Our enemy’s on the other hand took peace fullness as weakness and are now trying to wipe us out. Maybe we should send a deligation of left wing activests to Hisbila heard quaters to protest what they are doing. Oh please take some Israeli Arab citizens with them.
56. Pride of Israel
Daniel ,   London   (07.22.06)
Those demonstrators are the pride of the jewish people because they have conscience and don't want war crimes to be committed in their names. I wish I was with them today, but for now, I am so disgusted with the racism and the fascism in Israel that I need to be away . Israel is no place for civilised people to live any more Daniel, The Jew with a conscience London (formerly, north Tel Aviv)
57. 21 Gabe1
Khalid   (07.23.06)
So you mean that Hizbollah is collaborating with Olmert. The terrrist group attacked Israel to help him?
58. What about the law?
Schwartzbard ,   Paris&Netanya   (07.23.06)
Does the israeli law allow such a treacherous behaviour? In any country in the worls, including the most democratic, any help to the fatherlands' enemies brings you to penal or martial court.
59. 1000s? Stop LYING, Ynet!!!!!!!!!!
Jew ,   Eretz Israel   (07.23.06)
Do you even doublecheck your facts? Or you took them straight from the event organizers?
60. I bet the don't have the cojones
J ,   Newcastle, UK   (07.23.06)
to organise their protest in Haifa, under an Islamic attack.
