them all!

We need more uplifting news like this one to show that Arab and Jews can really live together in peace. That is great positive.

nevertheless I admire her and may G-d grant her and her children a long and healthy life.

Wait 'til there are 10-20 of them per kibbutz...!

its anti-racist policy and remove talkbacks like yours. You would be the first to criticize arab disloyalty to the State by arab Israeli citizens and their hateful arab MK's. And here this lady is jumping in, accepting our way of life and our values, which as is turns out, are not that different than her own. You, Miriam, are the beast, not Ms. Carmiya. You give the Torah a bad name and are not worthy of mentioning those holy books. Good luck to Ms. Carmiya. I applaud her and our fellow Jews who want to live among good people, muslim or Jew. I would rather be her neighbor than yours.

when there are arabs who want to integrate with jews, they should be encouraged and helped. there are too many jews and arabs, mainly haredim and arab-nationalist muslims who want to live in monocultural environments, which is impossible, unrealistic and backward in todays world. even when there was an ancient israelite nation thousands of years ago there were other peoples there too. a new society is possible which maintains its hebrew character, but there needs to be changes which will never happen when the leaders of the arabs want to destroy israel and talmudic law overrules civil law in israel

Proletarii of all countries, unite! Long live Communist International, Soviet Union, Comrade Stalin, Lenin, Breznev & socialist kibbutz system! Long live brotherhood of arabs & jews in Palestine! Down with religions!

Are you implying that you are a murderer and criminal? How does that fit in with any arab getting along with a Jewish community? Are you saying that maybe she or her children will end up killing the Kibbutz members? Remember that Che was executed for his crimes against humanity, in Bolivia. If you mean to represent that criminal, do you also represent Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer? Are you that sick?

It would be better if the report said that because of this unusual event, the Arabs would begin to realise that the JEWS don't have horns, not the other war around. Or perhaps you correctly assume that the Arabs already know this.

workers... Both she and the Jews on the kibbutz have broken the borders of fear and seclusion, on well built grounds of daily contact, mutual good behaviour and slowly growing, well-founded trust. Well done all of you!!! If we could all do that, what a lovely country and pleasant and prosperous future we would have!

It had happened: "Goyim dovrey Ivrit" becoming just Goyim. The essence aquires an appropriate form, finally.

Shut up!....youre giving me a headache. You could of said that in one line. We all know you are pro palastine.....isnt that the real issue with you. I wish this lady good luck, but only if she calls herself israeli and shows respect. to jews.

Well done to the Kibbutz in breaking down barriers, I hope the new member will be very happy living the kibbutz life. Just goes to show with all this religious coercion and hatred that there is some good news now and then.

came to Israel 100 years ago in order to found a Kibbutz he was called a pioneer and the act was called Zionism. I am just wondering how we should term an Arab and the act of an Arab joining a Kibbutz today. Some might see it as infiltrater and Islamism while others might see it as reconciliation and brotherhood." East is East and West is West and ne'er the twain shall meet". These words are very profound

This tb # 2 has been removed . Thanks to you we know who was the "writer" of it . With her wrong torah "beliefs" it does'nt wonder me . Does she know this "ve'ahavta et re'echa kamocha" ? For her everyone not belonging to her "sect" is evil .

Very well, Andy. I loved your post. And congratulations for the kibbutz. That's what Israel need: to integrate the Arab segment. Once they have a feeling of belonging to Israel they will no longer criticize the State. This is natural. And thanks YNET for removing that number 2 which, I suppose, was disgusting.

Don't be surprised when the next war is on and that handgrenade rolls into your bedroom - that is what some American Mohammedans have done to their fellow soldiers. But if you're a fool without boundaries, well, there's bound to be consequences.

Oh Andy just ignore her, actully i think she is an Iranian who is trying to destroy the Jewish nation by turning people against religion and weaken our spirit. One day this evil women will be judged by the powers that be.

Surely even you can understand that

In my opinion again,many in Israel have a very short sight. In few years,these families will apply for a mosque in the kibutz;will demand more muslims families in, as they get stronger...And in 20,30 years,bye,bye Israel. Those who decided to accept these families are irresponsable,to say the least.

I wonder if Amal Carmiya joined the kibbutz in order to get extremely-much more sexual satisfaction so that she could feel catharsis... Arab societies are normally conservative and frown on intimacies and fornications.Certainly the co-ed kibbutz would satisfy people with insatiable sex lust to the extreme fullest...Should I say : LONG LIVE ARAB KIBBUTZNIKS ???

Your writing is something from 50 years ago . Kibbutsim are not so "socialist" anymore . One of them has her factory even listed on the Nasdaq , very capitalist , not ? Religions , as long as they don't impose their way of life at others , is not an enemy . Religious have another , in my eyes wrong , way of life . But if they need it and are happy so , let them live .

Its really sad to see what the once mighty kibbutzim have fallen to. In the early days of the State it was the Kibbutnikim who pushed against Arab Labor and for pushing the Arabs out of the county, now Arabs are brought into the communities. With a few platitudes about accepting Israeli culture, if all that is needed to be a good Israeli is Hebrew and no open hostility to the state it really isnt surprising things have gotten so bad. But it raises the question what will be distinctly Jewish about Israel in 20 years and with nothing distinctly Jewish what would be the point of continuing.

Good News? Most of the Talkbacks are actually positive. Ok ...Whats going on.... Have I come to the wrong web site. But seriously guys.... Great News and best of Luck

Stuck for a decent comment JAy3

Not really. But I guess it's nice to read things like this. Just goes to show that we can live together. Well, us and the more educated Muslims anyhow.

So after well oer a century of the kibbutz movement, one insignificant private farm has accepted a non-Jew. Well, as we would say, wow, bloody wow. That's like German universities in the 1930s allowing one Jewish student. What is shocking is that a newspaper, a country, a readership can think that the opening of the racial exclusivity one tiny crack to allow one non-Jew (i.e. Moslem and Arab as you so specifically point out) can be allowed as a member. The whole racist facade of Israel must be now in danger. Talula's comments about "beign able to get on with the more educated Muslims" also stinks of racism - it's just she is too ignorant to recognise it.
