How many Israeli reporters are allowed in Arab countries? If any, how many of them are allowed to write against the gov'ts? They would not only be arrested, but put on trail and hanged. All Israel did was depart this fool. Good job Israel for getting rid of this trash.

They include the right to decide on the entry of foreigners, especially those seeking work. We don't need a reason, just like every other nation in the world. Boy the world hates us when we invoke our sovereignty.

Strange to see that the Israelis are so afraid of the truth about their mistreatment of Palestinians that they deport a man with a squeaky clean record, because he will actually tell the world what is being done to Palestinians without lying.

about news distortion, propaganda, that they can do outside israel, we owe them nothing. good riddance to rubbish

Tibi supported him?? Just for THAT he should be deported, taking Tibi and the other traitors with him!! Good bye and Good riddance!!

Entry isn't an entitlement. Every country decides who it lets in. Canada some months back decided the UK's George Galloway was unwelcome and denied him entry. That was a good call too. Malsin was detained because he initially chose to fight his deportation. Guess those "journalist" unions will take a few more points from Israel's rating. So be it.

All the do gooder NGOs cannot be allowed to run afoul of israeli law. So deportation is correct. And for the EU and norway who are funding antisrael inciters, they should be kicked the hell out. And haaretz will complain about rights and so on, the bleeding hearts that they are. They can all go to hell with t heir pacifist, appeasment views that elect olmert, and beilin to office, and brings death to israel. Israelis, why is the south quieter today than under olmert and livni? because bibi smashes them back in return and yaalon and peled are waiting in the wings.(note that barak's presence did not reduce rocket fire until cast lead, because he accepted olmert's appeasment policies). Are 1 million israelis happier under bibi than olmert? Yes of course. So Haaretz, shut the hell up. Force by itself is not an answer as sharon learned in lebanon. But national honor and self preservation some times requires action. You punch me in the nose., I punch you back in return, not olmert's policy of philosophical appeasement. short of a settlement which will not work as the arabs religiously cannot live in peace, a natural disaster will have to rectify the situation.

...this story has made the big media in the United States. Now that he is back here in the 'states, I'm sure this story will grow even more. Israel is looking more like Zimbabwe than any real democratic nation.

Israel is becoming more like Iran every day!

... hundreds of people are refused entry to the US and nobody complains. Israel has full right to deny or accept the request to pass its borders. Israel can say "no" to anybody if it choses to, especially to those who spit in its face and do anything possible to taint it with lies, fabrications and distorsions of facts. Jared Malsin may have never comitted a traffic violation but this does not secure him ANY kind of automaitc right to enter Israel. Let's see how many Israeli Jews who have never committed any traffic violation would be allowed into Saudi Arabia with the purpose of demonizing it. For that matter, let's see ANYBODY being let into Saudi Arabia with the same purpose. So Tibi - don't preach what you don't practice. Your empty demagogies are a glaring proof of your racism and hatred towards Israel and its Jewish citizens who do not happen to suport your genocidal ideas and practices. Get lost and stop trying to manage our country!

...and of course anything can be distroted to fit your racist beliefs - even the natural right of ANY country to control its borders - especially if the country is called "Israel". What do you have to say about the US border control for example?

begin with. Oh, and it is not job of Israel to make you feel good. Not at Israel's expense anyway.

As a sovereign country, Israel has the right to determine who can and who cannot enter the country. Many other countries refuse entry to certain people for various reasons, as is their right. When, say, the United States refuses entry to somebody, we never hear complaints. Furthermore, there are many Arab states that automatically refuse entry to Israelis simply because they are Israeli. Unbelievably, these 'human rights' activists don't complain about that, but they are more than happy to complain about Israel.

...yet nobody bashes it for that. UK refused entry of the Danish Politician and leader of Party of Freedom - Geert Wilders - because there was a danger that UK Muslims may riot. As a matter fo fact, Geert Wilders never attacked UK for its occupation of Ireland. So now what? UK is allowed to do that and Israel is not allowed to refuse entry to a documented liar? Noonie Darwish would not be allowed in ANY Muslim country (if she has the guts to even try). My point is that every country has the right and responsibility to refuse entry to ANYBODY without ANY EXPLANATION! This has nothing to do with democracy - it has everything to do with SOVEREIGNITY! So to all the racist and hateful scum polluting our talkbacks with their hysterical and poisonous rants. You do not make any impression on us. We know who our haters are and you cannot deny our natural rights over our ancestral lands - whether you like it or not. Today is more difficult to screw the Jews and you hate it, eh?

...and this has nothing to do with democracy. It has everything to do with sovereignity, and Israel is a sovereign country, even if you hate it! Those who challenge our sovereignity just prove that their motives are far from "human" or "democratic". Their rel reasons are racist, hateful and genocidal and as such, their rants will be duly ignored. Have a three-finger-salute from this proud Israeli Jew - yessir! UP YOURS!

Winston Churchill: “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.”

this story has NOT made the big media in the United States. Now that he is NOT back here in the 'states, "I'm sure this story will grow even more." Israel is looking more like Zimbabwe than any real democratic nation. yeah...

Well duh ! Israel is the occupier and decides who and who may not enter Palestine based on its own rascist policies. Come the day that a Palestinian state will be declared and the occupation ended the Palestininans will have their own airport and it will be up to them who comes in to Palestine not an occupying force.

Israel is at war and has no obligation to facilitate life for those who engage in war by other means and seek to deligitmize Israel and ultimately destroy her. So sorry the inconvenience.

Talking about "truth". Mr. Waked quotes very selectively to shape the story to his liking. See Haaretz or Jpost for details.

1. Israel is a state not a country 2. Israel has no permanent borders 3. The truth about Cast Lead atrocities by the IDF in Gaza will get out to the world in English.

its population ...

If the reporter in question wished to go to the Palestinian territories and was forced to enter via Israeli it begs the question: If Israel claims sovereignty over these territories how could it even consider being a democracy? Are the people within these territories afforded the same rights before the law? Do they enjoy universal suffrage? Do they have the same rights to bear arms as settlers and every other citizen within Israel? Well, we all know the answers to these questions so lets drop the facade of democracy. These things happen because that is what happens in quasi theocratic apartheid countries when someone represents hope and justice to those being oppressed by the majority . Democracy...that was funny!

Israel should kick out all these external anti-Israel elements from landing into Israel and supporting and fomenting hatred against Jews and Israel. It does not matter whether they are Americans or Europeans. Most of them are Islamist-Jihadists and AntiSemites.
