One Zionist praising another, what else is new? Hitler's speeches changed the world also.
2. Not so bright Persian CAT, you really don't get it why
Uzi ,   Haifa   (06.26.07)
Hitler's speeches that changed the world are not included in this list and Herzog's speech, which unfortunately might not have changed much, is. Please let us know if and when you figure it out.
3. legacy of dishonoring a Rabbi
Y Shomron ,   Israel   (06.26.07)
It will never be forgotten or forgiven that Herzog refused to shake hands with Rabbi Meir Kahane z'l, hy'd upon his election to the k'nesset, but did shake hands with all the Israel -hating arab k'nesset members elected. As the Rabbi use to say: "vinegar, son of wine". His fight against "zionism is racism" rings false as he "chose" arabs over a Rav.
4. Herzog speech
Anne ,   France   (06.26.07)
I am looking for the full text of this speech. Does somebody have it?
5. The speech didn't change a thing.
The Raccoon   (06.26.07)
The Arab world is still rabidly anti-Semitic. The West is swiftly becoming as anti-Semitic as it was 500 years ago. And our own corrupt and traitorous elites are busy convincing us that Zionism is racism, and that we, therefore, have no right to live. What did the speech change, exactly?
6. Zionism=Racialism

7. #4 its here
Laura Thomas ,   London   (06.26.07)
http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/UN/herzogsp.html this speech was brilliant then and needs to be re-issued for the UN now. Tell it in Gath, Proclaim it in the streets of Europe because they are rejoicing at the way current world opinion is sweeping away anti-semitism and ushering in zionism as the new broom with which to beat the Jewish people.
8. British historians, bunch left from boycotting academics?

9. Speech
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (06.26.07)
Ok, we cuss the Brits, because one segment is trying to boycott Israel. Here is another segment that's trying to honor one of you. Can we, maybe, just give a little credit where credit is due and be thankful for the small favors????
10. too great speech for Herzog to pay it price
(06.26.07)
but Israel paid years of condmnation
11. Hey Racoon !
leon ,   Grand Rapids USA   (06.26.07)
Did you say "the West is BECOMING andi-semitic?" Becoming ?????? When did is stop? After the Crusades ? After the Pogroms? After the Final Solution? We've had 2000 years of it, and Jew-hatred still thrives well.
12. #1 Hitler's speeches RUINED and burnt Europe
Miri   (06.26.07)
13. how exacly did it changed the world?
(06.26.07)
i mean, a man makes a speech. a good speech i'll grant you. then - BAMM - 16 years later he got what he wanted. hardly a world changing speech. if it was really world changing they should've changed the decision right then and there!

And so will Ahmadinejad's. He will bring about his own (and your) destruction. May your name be erased.

Jane   (06.26.07)
If you were a piece of paper, I could tear you in half. But since you're a piece of chara, I can simply flush you.
19. #17. No one is praising Ahmadinejad
Persian CAT   (06.26.07)
except his mom and a few retards. But giving a speech at the UN and claim tht Zionism is not fascism is a laughable as saying Islamism is about respect for other people's rights. You have to be a Zionist jehadi to defend its ruthless, racist and supremacist legacy. You may be right that's a couple of notches below fascism.

Jane   (06.26.07)
Zionism is the national movement of the Jewish people. Nothing more, nothing less. By lumping it together with Nazism, Communism or facism of any kind - Islamofacism comes to mind - is wrong, despicable, evil and a display of full-blown anti-Semitism. To support the national movements of every other people and at the same time condemn and vilify only ours, speaks volumes. The mask behind which you Jew-haters hide is called anti-Zionism. To be anti-Zionism is exactly equivalent to being anti-Semitic. You welcome the self-hating Naturei Karta Jews (that we cast out) to enable yourselves to say, "look. we don't hate Jews". Your hypocrisy is clear.
21. To Persian Cat
Allan ,   Ramat Ilan, Israel   (06.27.07)
Do you actually know what Zionism is and means?
