1. How can you be so stupid?
(10.18.06)
2. There are Gay Haredim
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
I would like to see Haredim come out.
3.  I like men dressed in black!!
Mark ,   usa   (10.18.06)
As a gay man, the rebbe look is hot!
4. sick haredim
dob ,   wonderland   (10.18.06)
Where else in the world would haredim come up with such an absurd theory.
5. Letting this go on...
Mike ,   USA   (10.18.06)
is what will bring the judgement of your Creator down upon your country. Remember Sodom and Gomorrha.
6. Ynet, when will you stop using that stupid picture?
Alan ,   Tel Aviv   (10.18.06)
In all your gay-related articles? I don't know anyone gay who looks or dresses like that. I know you're looking for a little "shock" to attract readers, but that stupid picture does not represent anyone except a small fringe. How about two normal looking guys holding hands, or two lesbians with a stroller? C'mon...grow up. The US media doesn't use images like that anymore....it's time ynet caught up.
7. I am proud to be Gay and Jewish
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
I was blessed twice. Be Gay, Be Jewish and be Proud
8. #6 That small fringes loves to march
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
They love flaunting it on gay pride day. They go overboard on gay pride day and the public remembers that behavior.
9. #2 You cant be a true Haredim and reject Torah
(10.18.06)
The Torah says to not have sex with animals and the same gender, those that do are rejecting Torah. You could be "gay" but only in your mind, and you can still be a good Jew if you dont act on the negative feelings. PS: Mark, you are such a laughing stock, anti israeli gay and a nerd. Your day will come. PSS: Join ISM please so the IDF can shoot you in the face.
10. #6 Because at the gay parades, they act like that
(10.18.06)
Why else to have a parade in Jerusalem where your exposure to other gays would be so limited, expect to inflict harm on other Jews? WHY HAVE A YOUTH DAY?!?!?!
11. Idiot..No success because of Shas backed government
malcolm   (10.18.06)
If Shas cared more about Israel than the payouts, they could have toppled this bankrupt government right after the war. But as usual, some Rabbi, Priest, Minister, Ayatollah, Mullah, Sheik or Mufti speaks directly with God & knows why bad things happen to good people.
12. Just like the Klan in Skokie
Alvin ,   Chicago USA   (10.18.06)
When the Ku Klux Klan marched in Skokie about 20 years ago, there was no reason to hold the march there other than the fact that the cityb was populated by many Shoah survivors. It's the same with the homosexuals. The only reason they choose to march in Jerusalem is because they are trying to anger the religious jews there. The gays are sick, in both their choice (yes, choice) of partners and their choice of venue. They live to make problems.
13. idf operation sos-save our (a)souls
(10.18.06)
14. Also, the photo is really misleading.....
Alan ,   Tel Aviv   (10.18.06)
That's NOT what the Jerusalem parade is going to look like. The jerusalem march is not going to be a party or an in-your-face parade....it's a political/social rally....just like other groups come to gather, protest, or rally in Israel's capital. So why use a photo from some gay pride thing that probably wasn't even in Israel?
15. we did not succeed cause haredim dont go to army
aharon ,   jerusalem   (10.18.06)
most of them don't help am israel in any way. i appreciate the vey few that do something to make a better world and help am israel.
16. #9 I am a gay man that wants peace.
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
I am a nerd and proud of it. I want a two state solution. In the bible, it says Jews will be least in numbers. We do not need all the land. We can share. With your attitude, there never will be peace. I used to feel that way but peace is the only way. I am chaste and proud of it. Chastity is the way.
17. #9 Hashem loves all his children
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
Gay,Straight,Bisexual,Asexual, and Transgendered I know that for a fact.
18. #12 Can you back that up with research?
Mark ,   usa   (10.18.06)
Have you studied gay behavior?
19. #9 Love your fellow Jew
Mark ,   USA   (10.18.06)
20. #11 Sephardim have been abused by the Ashkenazi Left
(10.18.06)
You will never see money funneled to Sephardi schools without Shas, so sadly there is no alternative.
21. #15 Does Olmert's/Sharon's kids go to the army?
(10.18.06)
PS: There is a Haredi brigade in the IDF. Who signed the ceasfire with Hizballah, was it the Haredim or Olmert? Who advocated that we should not kill Nasrallah at the victory parade, the Haredim or Olmert? Where is Shallit and the others, who is in charge the Haredim or Olmert? Thanks for answering and using the religious as a scapegoat. Truth be told, ynet will never miss a chance to insult the observant.
22. No Parade. Liberals push your values....
Sloppy   (10.18.06)
somewhere else. Not the holiest city in Judiaism and maybe the whole world. It is still not ready for that yet.
23. Let the Gays first march in Mecca, then we will talk!
Scoltt Neuman ,   Okemos, MI   (10.18.06)
I would agree that the Gays should be able to march in Jersualem if the other religions that have outlawed the practice let them march in their cities. For instance, Mecca, then Vatican City.
24. How idiotic can one be?
Semsem ,   New York   (10.18.06)
The intolerance of the Orthodox Jewish Community is sickening. They think the same way the National Socialist thought in the 1930's in Germany. Quite primitive.
25. HEY RELAX
Bush ,   USA   (10.18.06)
Before you go knocking the HAREDIM can you prove them wrong. They have proof from the Torah that the Land of Israel is very sensitive whenever there is immodesty and we lose our rights to the land. Is there anybody out there that can prove them wrong before insulting them. We all believe in cause and effect. They say the cause of immodesty on holy land brings war and exile since the land cannot tolerate it. And they can bring you proofs since history began. Leftists believe the cause of disengagement will bring the effect of peace between arabs and Jews. No that is not absurd. They didn't read it in any book or even ask the Arabs the outcome of disengagement they did it anyway like a child who touches a hot oven and still have no peace. Now who is really stupid. You can bash them all you want but they will have the last laugh.
26. Devastating historical analysis from the Haredim
George W ,   Chicago IL   (10.18.06)
Gays caused the Lebanon war. On every bus that has been bombed, there were several promiscuous feminists. The first Lebanon war started to go bad right around the time Israeli kids started listening to heavy metal. The 1973 war started the day after the first hippie showed up in Beer Sheva. The Holocaust happened because Jewish teenage boys were looking at racy Betty Grable posters. The Romans destroyed the Temple because G_d was mad at Jewish proto-yuppies for eating too much sushi on the Sabbath.
27. To Open House: Ariel's Sharon's GAYhenom
H ,   Jerusalem   (10.18.06)
is not a coincidence. Warning: Don't start up with the Rabbis who have Heavenly power.
28. those extremists
meir ,   jerusalem israel   (10.18.06)
every time they come up with somthing knew, most of them don't even work, they make me sick.
29. parade
dido ,   jerusalem   (10.18.06)
as a gay dati guy i am embarassed by the gay communities lack of sensitivty to others feelings. gays are always complaining that no one tolerates our way of life but do they tolerate others? let the gay commuinity show others how to be tolerant by not being provocative in jerusalem out of respect for other life styles. i dare say we are too narcistic for that!
30. Signs of weakness tempt Israel's enemies
Steve ,   USA   (10.18.06)
B"H Nonconformity to religious guidelines is perceived as weakness by Israel's enemies. Internal strife is also perceived as weakness. These perceptions definately tempt Israel's enemies. Think of it as a cat and mouse game. If the mouse looks exposed spiritually or physically, the cat goes in for an attack. It is a hard balance in the Middle East with maintaining freedom and also maintaining the stature needed to keep one's enemies at bay. I count Jewish house demolitions as a sign of weakness also that tempts those wanting to destroy Israel.
