32. Ray Hanania
Rick S. ,   L.A.   (09.17.06)
The people that he hates are all staunchly PRO ISRAEL! It's the left that hates Israel, not the right. It's the left that supports the Palis and Hezbos and try to undrmine Israel. The worst offenders are the Jews on the far left, like Ray, Adam Shapiro, the members of ISM, Amnesty Int'l, ACLU, Peace Now, B'Tzelem, etc. etc. etc.
33. Hanania stabs a friend in the back
steve ,   USA   (09.17.06)
Ray Hanania I hope is not a Jew. G-d help us if he is. Ms. Coulter is one of our few conservative friends. If Hanania is a Jew, I would respecffully include him in the following list: http://www.masada2000.org/shit-list.html

mike ,   miami, usa   (09.17.06)
burying books or burning them are the same. this guy brags that like most liberal, anti-American leftists, he believes in free speech as long as it is coming from people he agrees with. that is fascism from the left. it is mr. hananias remarks that should be buryed.

Ray Hanania ,   Chicago, IL USA   (09.17.06)
Hey Arja, I have found it doesn't take much to get the haters all riled up, screaming and dancing around the fire, throwing mud and then, with dirtied hands, expressing shock at being them being criticized :) I am going to step up my "freedom sightings" and bury-orrisims ... and let's start a boycott of Ann Coulter ... oh, I forgot, boycotts are ugly hateful things unless the target is an Ay-rab. As alamu alaikum .. or, as the Pope says, "I'm Jeehad to meet ya!" Ray Hanania www.hanania.com

(09.17.06)
you know the "pro-peace" organization that helps terrorists and were photographed posing with members of Al Aksa brigades with machine guns. You know those "peace-loving" people you love to side with.

44. Shut up liberal jerk!
Jim ,   San Antonio USA   (09.17.06)
45. Haters are Hypocrites
sarah ,   ramallah   (09.17.06)
I enjoyed this piece. Too bad people are so stuck on posting venom that they can't even see their own hypocrisy and enjoy the humor in this column as well. These talkbacks remind me of a pack of uncivilized angry idiots. Ray, stay strong, there are MANY that support you and admire you. For them, you are the medicine that tastes bad going down but will cure the disease after enough doses. These haters are simply vile. If I were Jewish or Israeli, I would be ashamed of the arrogance and lack of self-respect they have for themselves and how they are portraying their own. Surely there are Jews/Israeli's out there that do not espouse such disgusting disrespect and behavior. I feel the same way about Palestinians that use hate rhetoric the same way.
46. RE: #30 and # 33
David ,   Marietta USA   (09.17.06)
RE Mr Soros, God help us, is a Jew. He called Bush a Nazi this weekend. Please see my comment, #23. As for comment #33: our "few" conservative friends, well my friends, our friends are ONLY conservatives! I defy you to find a single "liberal" friend of Israel in particular, Jews in general. This isn't the 1930s anymore. Today's "liberals" are the rabid, isolationist, anti-Semetic Republicans of the 1930s, and today's true "conservatives" are the liberal Democratic, human rights, non elitist, pro Israel, pro free speech, pro religion, pro Black voice from the 1930s. Who would have thought it?
47. Ray is an Arab-American who claims to be "Palestinian."
Daisy ,   USA   (09.17.06)
And he also claims to be a Christian. Basically Ray's a liar.
48. Bury-orrists
SPOTTERRON ,   Lockport NY USA   (09.17.06)
If your stand-up comedy act is half as stupid as your column, it's probably not very good either.......
49. Ray hates Ann because...
AJ   (09.17.06)
Ann is the vision of what Ray and others like him believe what the "72 virgins" should look like. It must be devistating to know that someone who fits the "72 virgin" description will never have a desire to want to be with you!
50. A rise out of everyone
American ,   USA   (09.17.06)
well, Ray you are obviously ruffling a few feathers here. I guess thats what truth is about. people hate to hear it. It makes them 'uncomfortable'.. stay strong. peace.
51. Knee Jerk Reactions
Jerry Sussman ,   Alexandria, Virginia   (09.17.06)
Until I had read the comments to Ray's latest column, I didn't know which I disliked more: Ray's incessant progagandizing about everything that is wrong about Israel, or the comments that suggested that the persistent support of some for all of Israel's actions was a reflexive and thoughtless knee jerk reaction. Well, I still don't care much for Ray's propogandizing, and am ill at ease at the notion that people deliberately hide books that they wouldn't like others to see. But I have to say, I now am sympathetic to those who cry that the defense of all things Israeli is a knee jerk reaction. Do any of you truly know anything about Ann Coulter? Likely not. Your sole reason for supporting her is that Ray chose to speak against her. From my perspective, Ann Coulter is neither a "friend" of Israel, nor a lover of Jews. Rather, she is a Republican mouthpiece. It may surprize some of you to learn that, when the opportunity suited her, she has treated Israel with the same disdain with which she has regarded everything else not to her liking. Anyone in need of a wake up call about Ann Coulter need only listen to recent tyrades defending the rabidly anti-semitic demogogue, former U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy. Though Senator McCarthy is widely castigated for his conduct during his pursuit of communists, he earlier gained fame for championing the cause of the Waffen SS Officers who committed the Malmady Massacre. Oh, yeah, he objected to the tribunal on the principal ground that one of the judges was a Jew.
52. He's an Arab
Shelly ,   Israel   (09.17.06)
53. Hanania
d.d.   (09.17.06)
Without knowing Ann Coulter, one may easily guess that you are a sick person. Go get checked !
54. Shukran, Ray Hanania.
gerd schulz ,   germany   (09.17.06)

55. Question: Mr. Ethics? AND does Ray get it yet?
Stewart ,   USA   (09.17.06)
It sure may seem that way, but are there facts to back this up. Never-the-less you have to wonder why he's never responded to any criticisms here without name calling -- "haters ... extremists..." and school child name degredation and twisting even towards thoughtfull respondents. He says he really got to them ie. got them upset, but his current tactics are not even funny or close to the caliber of other professional journalist at YNet like Attilla Somalavfi (? last name). Maybe Hanania needs a bit of vacation. . . . or does he have such secure backing that he feels he can let his personal abuses get in the way of professional obligations. The amount of electronic space like paper still has a limit. Anyone whose read the last two articles "Talkbacks" understands that Ray owes an appology to the readers; NOT because they were offended, any adult would ignore getting angry over such lack of maturity, BUT because readers deserve better. Why does anyone waste such a privalege as publishing in such an informative e-zine as YNet with such childish displays towards readers in Talkbacks. They don't even add up to humor for humors sake.
56. Dumb column but I do agree - Counter needs a:
Andy   (09.17.06)
great big potch in tuchous. She doesn't add anything to serious dilogue for peace or security.
57. TERRORISTS WIN: DEODORANT BANNED FROM AIRPLANES

TERRORISTS WIN: DEODORANT BANNED FROM AIRPLANES August 16, 2006 http://www.anncoulter.com/cgi-local/article.cgi?article=143
58. humour and hugs
Arja ,   Canada   (09.17.06)
Sarah, I agree with you. I also found humour in the piece. Ray, thanks for the tanks. When I'm finnish I'll give them back to you. You might need tanks more than I do.... to defend yourself (tanks are for defence, right?) You know, Barney might come after you to give you a big purple hug to show you how much he loves you even if you don't love him... lol
59. Ray doesn't like Ann. That means she must be great.
Susie ,   New York City   (09.17.06)
The best recommendation Ann could ever get is that Ray Hanania does not like her work. That means she is one of the best commentators and columnists in America.
60. narcissistic humorless comedian
calin ,   AR USA   (09.17.06)
I certainly hope his "packed audiences" get better treatment than this idiotic, flat but self-loving and self-admiring piece of jibberish.
