1. Hamas ... OMG
fish israel   (10.07.08)
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, welcome a new Mideast. financial think-tank Messrs Hamas & Co. Wall street - why don't employ them as analysts? I'm amuzed that the media, and Ynet of all people should listen to what these clowns have to say. You knew it was coming, didn't you, Jews are to blame of course.
2. Yep, blame the Jews for everything!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (10.07.08)
Actually, while the current banking fiasco is due to shocking management and the granting of unsecured credit, has anyone thought that it could also be part of the Arab Economic Jihad which many fail to see? Huge US and EU companies have large blocked of shares which are own by the Arabs. How many of the troubled banks have huge shareholdings by Arab Princes and Sheikhs? Who it be too much of a "conspiracy theory" to suggest that the banking crises, couple with the still high price of crude oil is part of an Islamic attempt to take over the economies of the West? Time will tell!
3. Of course, Jews are more powerful in business
Kim ,   Israel   (10.07.08)
What international bank is run by an arab? what conglomorate is run by an arab? Correct, none!
4. That's we were waiting for
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (10.07.08)
They had first to read the "protocols..." .
5. More racist rants coming from an Arab murderer...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (10.07.08)
...and baby killer. A Gazan castrated camel knows more abut workd economy than the Hamas terrorists. Their extent of their "education" is limited by the barbaric sermons barked by their primitive clerics. Racism and intolerance is a way of life for fanatical Muslims and the latest hatred-filled nonsense about the US economy and its causes, is another proof of why we can NEVER have true peace with these animals. And since this is a quesiton of survival, we should totally destroy them, just like the Chinese are doing in their Uighur province, the Russians in Chechnia and the Arabs among themselves. Sadly, after tens of generations, the Arab leaders have not groun out of their Dark Ages practices and mentality and the only way to beat them is to use the same tools against them. This was true 60 years ago and this is even more true today. No mercy for terrorists and their supporters!
6. jihadi economics
(10.07.08)
osama bin laden did say something big was going down in the states soon.
7. hamas Jewish lobby comments
David ,   Jerusalem Israel   (10.07.08)
Its bad enoug that these murdering terrorists make these kind of comments. its even worse that Ynet report them!!
8. How Hamas beat the crisis. Lesson One:
Enzo ,   London,UK   (10.07.08)
Don't Waste Another Minute On Forex Trading Methods That Just Don't Work! Abandon US dollars, Yen, Pound Sterling, RMB, and Euros, and instead dig a tunnel in Rafah and smuggle RPG rockets and lauchers, hundreds of kilograms of explosives, hundreds of rifles (mainly AK-47), bullets and other ammunition, thousands of cartridges!
9. soon

10. to Enzo #8
Shoshannah ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.07.08)
Hey Enzo - you'd better head over to Palestine - Palestine UK that is (http://www.ukvillages.co.uk/village/Palestine-Hampshire) to see what the Pals. there are up to! See if you can find any tunnels out there in the verdant green countryside!
11. JEWS - TIME TO INVEST IN ISRAEL
David ,   Shilo ISRAEL   (10.07.08)
Whether you invest money or better still yourselves...now is the time to invest in the 'rock' of all investments.
12. What Took Them So Long?
Mark ,   Kibbutz Elrom   (10.07.08)
I forgot to check the stock market in the Gaza. Has it gone up recently?
13. arab loosers
dav   (10.07.08)
next thing u know they'll blame the jews for the circadian rythm of life.
14. No! Jews will enhance financial crisis
observer   (10.07.08)
the 850 billions were supposed to fund the strike of Iran. Now, Jews are forced to withdraw their investments. Then, the US economy is supposed to really suffer.
15. I knew it all along!
David ,   USA   (10.07.08)
IT'S YOU STINKING JOOOOOOOS. Now how am I going to maintain my fleet of classic bmw's? How am I going to maintain my summer house in Vail Colorado? What about my estate in the south of France? Excuse me, I must go now. My private Jet is ready to fly me to Rio.
16. Has this been done before?
David ,   USA   (10.07.08)
It seems to me that hasatan adolph hitler did the same thing. Beware Israel. It may be a good time for t'shuvah. O'yeah, btw, a proper government wouid be helpful also. Not that the government we have in the good ole USA is any better.
17. got news for you, Hamas:
(10.07.08)
economy collapsed because of greedy oil companies being controlled by Muslim Arabs. Works both ways, see?
18. soon indeed...
(10.07.08)
Arabs in UAE, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, etc. are to blameWe carry trillions in debt because of these foreign Jihadi investors. Soon the truth will shine, and the world will know who the enemy is.. Beware the Jihadi dream...
19. #12 "Gaza stock market" LOL!
(10.07.08)
20. hamas has nothing better to do 'cause of the ceasefire
SA ,   USA   (10.07.08)
When there is a lull and Islamist entities aren't out shooting rockets at civilians and making trouble, they get bored and need to spread lies to make themselves feel important. Typical, disgusting behavior from the Gazan thugocracy.
21. Take this seriously...If things get real bad
BJL ,   US   (10.07.08)
They will round up Jews again for the slaughter. We Jews in the diaspora should head for Israel while the getting is good!
22. to 12
hana ,   jerusalem   (10.07.08)

Eric... ,   Israel...   (10.07.08)
there price of oil.They are too blame for the world financial crisis.We the Jewish people know how too make money.Jealousy will get you know were Hamas.
25. #21 Jews in the Diaspora
Cynthia ,   USA   (10.07.08)
Have a voice backed by accomplishment. When times are tough, the envious cockroaches who've accomplished nothing in life, predictably crawl out from their rocks. Don't be afraid to challenge these people. What exactly has Hamas ever accomplished other than bankrupt the Palestinians even further.
26. #21: I know! Let's all us diaspora Jews move to Jerusalem!
(10.07.08)
That'll solve your demographics problem.... I can see the tourist ad: Jerusalem... The New York City of the Middle East
27. Comments from morons unable to feed their own people....
Michel ,   Montreal, Canada   (10.07.08)
Gazans are starving and there is almost no work at all, but Hamas are knowledgable and experienced enough to "analyze" the world financial crisis (and of course blame it on the Jews) - what a bunch of morons! The only topic that they are qualified to comment on is how to assemble explosive devices and fire rockets.....They only know how to destroy, not build.
28. Well...
Karl Liljeblad ,   Stockholm, Sweden   (10.07.08)
It can't be denied that the jewish lobby is quite strong in the US. It's just complete idiocy to ignore this and what it actually might lead to, increasing antisemitism etc. Hamas has no real influence in the rest of the world, and the nut-cases that listens to them will likely claim jews are behind it anyhow.
29. #22 hana
meg ,   israel   (10.07.08)
could we please have a translation! good grief, if you want to comment ...update your English!!!!
30. First they said it was a punishement from allah
robert renders ,   belgium   (10.07.08)
But now that the Arab bourses took a dive too, they had to find something else. Allah apparently doesn't have the cash to help them or anyone else.
