1. sabra and shatilla were in reprisal for Damouri
bob ,   potomac md usa   (01.16.09)
The massacres at Sabra and Shatilla were not just in reprisal for the killing of Jamayl--they were also in reprisal for the Palestinian massacre of Christians in Damour. there, Arafar himself particiapted and screamed Allahu akbar as the killing went on--of course, the makeers of the movie conveniently left this part out--and Madame Ahrawi managed to overlook this lettle detail (Arafat killed more Christians than he did Jews)
2. Dignosis:Just More Oral Diherrea
sandman ,   ann arbor ,usa   (01.16.09)
El-Sana highlights of his party and himself has been to bring bunch of misfits to poorly represent the people who elected him in goverance.
3. This is a democratic country, you don't like it go to
m   (01.16.09)
your Arab family in Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuweit, Oman, etc. See you have so much choice we don't.
4. All Isrel Arabs should go to Gaza first.
Texas ,   US   (01.16.09)
5. Good try traitor!
Cynic ,   USA   (01.16.09)
Sure, lock up the jews as "war criminals" and then the arabs can take over Israel.
6. Too few people ever heard about Damour.
GZ ,   USA   (01.16.09)
While everybody hears about Sabra/Shatila all the time hardly anybody ever heard about "heroic operation" performed by PLO against the Christian Lebanese in the village of Damour. Every time Pal Muslims and their symphatizers scream their heads off about Israeli "atrocities they should be reminded of REAL atrocities commited by them in Damour.
7. Sabra and Shatila?
Jane   (01.16.09)
Out. That's it. They gotta go.
8. Sabra and Shatilla wasn't done by the Israelis
Matityahu ,   Slovenia   (01.16.09)
and for killings in Gaza, Hamas bears the responsibility.
9. Don't listen to the Arabs, just get Hamas!
GloomBoom.com ,   Nashville, USA   (01.16.09)
Keep on fighting until Hamas is gone!
10. ARAB MK'S ARE A GRUESOME POLITICAL JOKE.
stude ham   (01.16.09)
it's time israel recognized such arab mk rhetoric as nothing less than high treason. why would any nation, other than israel, ever allow its enemies representation in their parliamentary institutes? arab mk's who criticize the very state that gives them sanctuary in its parliament must be thrown out. they are traitors.
11. These people are sick. Protest Hamas. Rally for Israel
David ,   Boston, USA   (01.16.09)
What kind of sick people are saying this? Why didnt they protest the thousands of rockets sent into Israel, a WAR CRIME against them, citizens of Israel. Israel is well within international law. It is sad that civilians are hurt and die, but its part of war. Whats sad is these Arabs could have prevented it by protesting the true enemy of peace, Hamas and the other cancers within the arab/Muslims sectors who struggle against peace and struggle for death and destruction. They should be at the Hague or in the ground.
12. Didnt Arabs kill Arabs in Sabra Shatilla?
MArc ,   USA   (01.16.09)
Didnt Hamas kill FAtah in this war? Dint Arab suicide bombers kill other moslems in Iraq?
13. Aceept the conditions to the fire and your problem is solved
Mike ,   Israel   (01.16.09)
14. Hamas murdered 700 Fatah. LEBANESE murdered in Sabra
JO   (01.16.09)
not Israel. Syria once murdered 25,000 in one week, an entire village. King Hussien of Jordan did a similiar but far less job in Black September. Sabra and Shatila was LEBANESE murdering (no guns were aimed back at them) of innocent people. Iran, ask many expats how many. I could go on. Where are the Arabs that decry Hamas use of human shields, booby trapped houses and villages? NONE. What does that say? Maybe they would prefer Hamas as their rulers and maybe that is what they will get one day. Israeli Arabs are the most free in the entire Arab world and use it most liberally but this is going beyond the belt - they should ask themselves why many Israeli Jews do not trust them (they will quote their own words) If peace comes I am for all of them being ONLY Palestinian citizens and not Israeli. Then we will be equal. Also - DID they ever decry Hamas firing of rockets for eight years. We understand protest (Israelis are good at it) but this stuff, it is beyond the pale. Words do matter and say a lot about a community.
15. This is nothing. Someday soon we Jews
jason white ,   afula,israel   (01.16.09)
will throw all the arabs out of Israel, except our allies. They will leave either peaceably or dead. For years the palis have committed terrorist acts and the arabs of Israel supported them. Time is up, most Jews see them for the traitors they are.
16. Keep the crossings closed forever
and send these clown ,   to Gaza   (01.16.09)
17. IF THEY DONT PROTEST HAMAS WILL FIND AND KILL THEM
..............DACON9   (01.16.09)
18. Open the entry ways
Arie ,   BaGolan   (01.16.09)
And allow the arabs passage - one way - to Gaza so that they too can live within their true borders. They have proven, beyond any doubt, that they have loyalty ONLY to hamass! All benefits of Israeli citizenship should be terminated immediately: health benefits; school;work; and free passage
19. explains their banishment from the ISRAELI parliament
Arie ,   BaGolan   (01.16.09)
20. Baffled
daveza ,   za   (01.16.09)
If you are still at primary school then perhaps best not to take part in adult discussions. How can one take any posts seriously when they are written in some strange English dialect ?
21. Tribunal
Dr D ,   Jerusalem   (01.16.09)
I agree but a panel of 5 judges must sit in Israel. One Israeli, one Arab and 3 from countries not involved from near or far with the war and with a solid reputation of objectivity . I only hope that the Judges will rule out in favor of Israel after a careful revue of the last 8 years chronology of the events that brought to this war.
22. arabs or israelies
john- beirut   (01.16.09)
i wonder why those two face arabs dont demonstrate to ask to be seperated from israel that they hate that much and join thier fellow arabs that they love that much ? !! i think that they chose to collect thier unemployment money and children benifets and at the same time enjoy the hate marches against israel the same as they living in iran > i think that if they here that they will be joined to west bank all will go home and raise israel falgs and start chanting israel our home with avigdor !!
23. protest by Israeli arabs
eapen ,   uk   (01.16.09)
why are these guys citizens of Israel?
24. Not surprising - the losers always lash out
william ,   Israel   (01.16.09)
Just like some academics, like one particular Pappe from Haifa U., lash out with vehement Israel hatred when they are not honored as they feel they should be or given tenure, Arab MKs now feel free to be anti-israel now that their own actions have caused them to lose political legitimacy. It's one thing to be in govt as an opposition party, it's another to act as a devisive element to bring down the entire State. These people should be tried for treason and libel. Revoking citizenship might also be an option.
25. Palestinian historical rights
William ,   Israel   (01.16.09)
Well this is easily attainable....because historically, they only go back several decades compared to many centuries of Jewish history and rights.
26. Wasn't Shbra and Shatila perpetrated by Philangists?
William ,   Israel   (01.16.09)
Constantly a rallying cry among Arabs, especially Lebanese, this atrocity was commited by a leader of the Phialngists in Lebanon, not by the IDF. I've heard the typical libel lies - like Sharon ordered the mass killing, when the truth, put forth in the tribunal, placed the blame squarely on the Philangist leaders, who too part in the massacre. Sharon was merely guilty of not foreseeing the future. Today they call sharon a butcher and war criminal while the Philangist leaders are living free in Lebanon with not an ounce of guilt for their actions.
27. Why don't they condemn Hamas!
Maria ,   MD   (01.16.09)
28. Fire this traitor from Knesset
Semsem ,   New York, USA   (01.16.09)
Arab Parties and MKs like him should be banned. They are a security risk.
29. STOP THE CHILD SUBSIDIES NOW
Eric ,   Tel Aviv   (01.16.09)
Giving the Arabs money to have more children is suicide.
30. Kahana tzadak.
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (01.16.09)
