1. Wuhh..? but I thought Palestinians SUPPORTED right of return
Ohhh.....they meant just for THEMSELVES....
I think it's time to return to '67 borders (67 AD, that is.)

2. "We have a contract w. Jordanian gov't" umm, dude: in case
u forgot to notice, Jerusalem is in Israel, not Jordan. The Hashemite kingdom has no jurisdiction over Jerusalem. If u gotta problem with that, why don't u ask ur gov't Rep. Abbas and clan to get their fat-cat a$$es back to the negotiating table and stop dithering and procrastinating, huh?.....

3. Good
Evict all the illegal occupiers-they know they are squatters - and again call the area Shimon Hatzedek. 40+ years is way too long

4. The rule of law vs. the rule of violence
When it comes to Islamic culture, violence is it, be it in North Africa, South Asia, the Arab East.
I know it. I am a Christian Arab.

6. EAST JERUSALEM? WHAT IS THAT?

7. Why Ynet can't seem to get its semantics straight
In America, when a court issues an eviction order for whatever reason (bank foreclosure, condemned building, illegal occupancy, etc.) and someone subsequently purchases the property, we refer to the purchaser as the "Buyer." Buying a property does not make you a "Settler." Get the politics OUT of your headlines, PLEASE.

8. I wonder
if after WWll the Polaks , Ukrainians, Hungarians, Germans, Latvians etc. felt pain when they saw Jews reclaim homes that the Polaks , Ukrainians, Hungarians, Germans, Latvians etc. were born in that were stolen from Jews during the war??????
I wonder if it pained Polaks , Ukrainians, Hungarians, Germans, Latvians etc. to see Jews reclaim their stolen property?
It must have pained George Sorros the self admitted Nazi Collaborator to see Jews reclaim good he helped steal from them

10. "Noy added that the presence of Jews in the area was
increating stability."
If that is not an offensive, anti-Semitic statement, I don't know what is. Imagine if Jews said that about Israeli Arabs - all of these groups would be up in arms.

13. Terminology
I feel offended by the way Efrat Weiss tells her story!
First legal owners (is the Israeli legal system a tool of "settlers") are not settlers, are LEGAL owners.
Second whoever occupies a property that is not his is an "illegal occupant" in any civilized country.
Third Orly Noy for sure believes that keeping the status quo is more important that to abide the law! For her, it's not important that this people make mockery of the State of Israel's law is less important that Jews may live in their legal properties.
It's a pity, but everyday we see coexistence more far away because of this extreme left positions, they don't even respect a decree of Mrs. Beinish who is not exactly a "rightist"!

14. if thats the case
then no israeli will be living in israel now!!!! evacute anyone from any place which he does not own!!! it could implemented but not in all cases, in other words, anything in favour with the israeli nation the its a big YES, look at number's 1 comment, go back to the borders of 1967, so israeli people know it!!!!! its a petty how closed minded someone can be....

15. Reverse
Can Arabs simply go into now Jewish homes in Haifa and Safed, and reclaim them as they were Arab homes prior to 1948?? Since when can a property owned by a member of a religion be claimed decades later by another member of the same religion? Basically any Jewish person can occupy a home that was once owned by another Jewish person? What kind of society is this. Somewhere Israel has totally lost it's way.

16. I want to second S. Khoury's observation, # 4, and tell you
that I am also a Christian Arab from the West Bank. So many of our people left their homes and country and moved to Europe, North America and South America because through force and violence the Muslims around us have been forcing us out of our homes and country.
They have no respect for law and none for decency and respect of the other, especially when the other is not a Muslim.

17. Dangerous
This action simply legitimates the Right of return by palestinians to properties on the west side of the green line. This is bad for Israel.

19. Settlers? Let's refer to them as "pilgrims" instead
It is about time we consider how the terminology used in English stories impacts perception.
The word "settler" should, in my opinion, be replaced with "Pilgrim" which carries as less hefty connotation.
I am currently studying broadcast media at the university level and hope to change the way the US media terms various aspects of the Israeli saga.
For example, words such as "occupied territory" could be replaced with "disputed zone". The word "occupation" should never be used; as it's opposite is vacancy....

20. So for 37 years the arabs have been illegally stealing the
homes and now they should go to the police station to negotiate.
This is a head shaker and a good reason to move them back to Jordon so they can enjoy the protection of Jordanian courts.

22. So now every piece of "abandoned" arab property....
with Jews living in it since 1948 is fair game to be retaken by its rightful owners? We are being incredibly hypocritical here, and it looks very silly.

23. When we Jews were thrown out of our houses by Sharon,the
Pali women made those horrid calls,passed out candies,& danced in the streets. We ought to have a real Jewish throwdown tonight complete with dancing, a little drinking, and a whole lot of praising Hashem for keeping his promise to us.
