31. Sapir College
Jou Zha When ,   USA   (01.12.08)
Imagine if I would refuse US flag in my class, how long would i be able to keep my position, and for that matter my citizenship?
32. In my time he would have received...
Jessy ,   IL   (01.12.08)
The red code!
33. Academic freedom
paul malykont ,   United States   (01.12.08)
Freedom is for all! Palestinians must be free and students must be free as well. This man should be fired for violating his students' freedoms. He is an affront to all freedom loving people and a disgrace to the Palestinians.
34. Sapir College
Ronald ,   Carthage, USA   (01.12.08)
Forget about suspending the teacher. Consider deportation to Gaza.
35. A man with character!
Kyle   (01.12.08)
What a great man. Liike most people around the world he was repulsed by the ugly Israeli flag and the stupid necklace.
36. The man should not be able to teach
Jakov   (01.12.08)
again in any academic enovironment in Israel. His conduct is clearly unprofessional, unwarranted, and anti-semetic. If this individual does not have citizenship in the country, then he should be sent back to where he came from. ISomething is wrong if the administration at te college allowed this man to teach. Those reponsible for hiting him can also be fired. There's enough for the young to deal with already on the ground, and the last thing they need to think about is a teacher that hates everything their country stands for.
37. The internal Arab danger ignored.
Albert Fournier ,   Ashdod - Israel   (01.12.08)
Israel was established as a Jewish and democratic state. If the Arabs living in Israel were to accept the Jewish state as their home, its Jewishness and democracy would have been a blessing for them as explained at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2007/12/enemy-within.html
38. He should be made to eat pork
jason white ,   afula,israel   (01.12.08)
He should be fired.Other students in the class should have thrown the dog out of the classroom. We do not need trespassers practicing anti Jewish and anti Israel views in our Jewish country.For that we have the knesset and court system.
39. Saphir College
Kyle   (01.12.08)
it is not an easy decision to keep spies and traitors as "Professors", this College is a homeplace for self hat.ing Yi.ds
40. Not a country anymore
Lea ,   Jerusalem/Israel   (01.12.08)
A country allowing such incidents to pass in classrooms is not a country at all. If this "teacher" is not dismissed immediately it is the end of Israeli Education. Is not self respect one of the basics that should taught from the first form onwards?
41. This behavior by a "professor" not acceptable
arthur ,   jersey city usa   (01.12.08)
This behavior by a professor shows his intolerance and clearly his belief that acamdemic freedom extends only to those who agree withhim
42. Fire the b@stard (lecturer) and fire the rector
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (01.12.08)
for not having fired him after the first horrific incident!
43. the students pay for the eductaion so get rid of this man
zionist forever   (01.12.08)
The students pay to go to collage. The heads of the collage make laws on what is and is not acceptble and if they say its ok for a student to wear an army uniform then its ok. If the heds of the collage say its ok for a student to carry a bag with the symbol of the coutries flag then its ok to carry a bag with the symbol of the flag If the heads of collage say its ok for students to wear a Magen David necklace then its ok for them to wear it. When this man applied for the job he gets paid to do he understands there are things that the collage allows and he might not like so he is then left with 2 choices. 1) Dont take for the job because you dont like the rules. 2) Take the job and just accept students will do theese things you find insulting but your there to teach not like what the students wear ir carry just dislike it and get on with the job your paid to do. The students have a right to a good eductaion so the job of the collage must be to provide them with people who are going to teach them unconditionly and if this guy has problems with some of the rules so wants to pick and choose his students then the collage have a duty to fire him.
44. Another Arab fifth columnist
Yaakov K. ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (02.04.08)
"Ain Avoda, ain 'Aravim. Ain 'Aravim, ain pigu'im." Translation: No work for Arabs -> no Arabs (in Israel). No Arabs (in Israel and all territories belonging to it) -> no terrorist acts.
45. Teacher protest
Rick Brown ,   Drape, Ut USA   (03.06.08)
He should be desciplined. He never even would comment with a reason of Why? Why should he teach at a place where he has no alegeance or respect for what the school stands for?
46. easy one
Marcel Pfister ,   Uvita, Costa Rica   (05.03.09)
Nizar Hassan should be fired from that school. Had I been his student, i would have thrown him out of the classroom, together with other classmates.
