1. Its nice to see you angry. And just in case you have not
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (04.30.10)
Noticed yet,the victim card isn't helping you anymore. So stop acting like 12 year old's and get a life. Bunch of loser's can't tell the world what rights they have and what they don't. And oh,here's something to make matters worse for you: Austria and iran are doing just great regarding business. Don't know if you've read that on HAARETZ recently.
2. Burning Obama
nathan ,   Israel   (04.30.10)
Listen I strongly dislike the Idiot in the White house, But burning in effigy??? What are we Arabs Now??
3. Savages
Michael Steiner ,   Bahrain   (04.30.10)
What's the difference between these cretins burning someone's picture at a religious festival, and those Arab morons burning flags after Friday Jum3a prayers? They are EXACTLY the same.
4. Pray for our leaders even if you don't agree
Galut ,   Selah   (04.30.10)
David before he became king would not raise his hand againsts Gods annoited....Pray That God sends a angel to mr obama to explain the facts of life about Israel.... also pray for G-ds cover for Israel in the coming months and years....

You are right. I guess some of us are influenced by infantile behavior. At least we don't shoot each other or drop the enemy out of the window of a building with our hands dipped in the body's blood. I hope we never get that influenced. But, yes, these people who burn pictures are primitive and stupid.
6. Idiot thing
Czech Republic   (04.30.10)
7. Obama IS Israel's Nemesis.American People...
Adina kutnicki ,   Israel   (04.30.10)
are mostly supportive. Therefore, before they 'do the deed' they should make a CLEAR statement separating the two. By the way, all the posters who are outraged by the plans to burn Obama's likeness in effigy would do well to take the pulse of Americans, who for the most part LOATHE their socialist POTUS, who happens to side with Muslims on EVERY issue!
8. #1 Peter, Vienna-Austria
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (04.30.10)
Austria and Iran are doing just great regarding business? This is not surprising. Austria has a great history in raising "special" politicans.
9. Burning pix of the Pres of USA
Joel ,   Israel   (04.30.10)
The Israel Gov needs to declare that these fanatics do not represent Israel and most Israelis endorse Obama's peace efforts. Obama is better for Israel than Bibi.
10. #9 Joel. U re not Israeli!
Sarah ,   Montreal   (04.30.10)
Get ur facts right. Obama is a Muslim and he hates Jews.
11. To 1
Miriam Woelke ,   Jerusalem   (04.30.10)
Keep your anti - Semitism in Austria and don't spread it on a Jewish news site !
12. Where can I buy obama toilet paper?
jason white ,   afula,israel   (04.30.10)
Made from pages of recycled obama support Israel speeches?
13. G-ds wrath will bring death from the heavens to
obama HUSSEIN = ,   ENEMY   (04.30.10)
obama HUSSEINS house.
14. #1 from Austria
just want to comment ,   israel   (04.30.10)
why do you even waste your time reading an israeli news website if you are so uninterested? and better yet if you hate jews so much why do even bother commenting
15. I hate Federman and his ilk
Sagi   (04.30.10)
I am so ashamed of them. Please do not call me anti semite and left because I am exactly the opposite but these folk are so disgusting and so detrimental to the interests of Israel. They act like children and dress like idiots and have no regard for anyone except themselves.
16. Good! He can switch to burning books later!
Brad ,   USA   (04.30.10)
After that, he can forbid selling Jewish non-compliant authors, after that he can brand goim with, let's say, small yellow cross, and on and on...
17. Is this the Jewish way?
Ari ,   Joburg, SA   (04.30.10)
Ok, so we agree that Obama's no friend of Israel. But, since when do Jews burn things of the "enemy". History is replete with them burning our things- the Talmud as an example, never us burning theirs. It's time we reminded ourselves, we're not street-fighters. Our first port of call when dealing with threats is to address our relationship with Hashem. Greater dedication to Jewish observance and encouraging others to do another mitzvah will be infinitely more effective in neutralizing our enemies than burning people's photos. Hashem runs the world, let's focus our energies on doing what He wants from us.
18. # 16 Brad
Sagi   (04.30.10)
Well said.
19. It would be better to channel anger into winning wars
Max   (04.30.10)
Two wars unnecessarily and deliberately lost in succession - that is the root cause of the current pressure on Israel - Israel showed, and continues to show, weakness.
20. Chilul Hashem....equating religious jews to fanatical muslms
R ,   Israel   (04.30.10)
who do this regularly in arab countries and are looked upon by westernized nations as nuts. Now, thanks to these low-life supposed religious backward Jews, all religious Jews will be looked upon as disrespectful crazies and shouldn't be supported. No matter how much you hate a leader, you don't act like an animal and burn pics and flags. Go back to the dog house you were raised in. Embarressment for all Jewish people. I'm not a fan of Obama, but this is REALLY BAD. Now people can say, see those Jews are just as barbaric as the fanatical muslims.
21. to No. 8, Albrecht Klein
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.30.10)
Politicians like the rotten Jörg Haider...very good remark...He really visited the mullahs...
22. # 17 Ari
Sagi   (04.30.10)
"Hashem" runs the world. I do not know who this "hashem" thing is, but if he is running the world then he ought to be fired because he is doing a very bad job. Time to appoint a new CEO with fresh ideas.
23. #2 - Nathan - What are we Arabs Now??
Erastus CoupeDeVille ,   Ong's Hat, NJ USA   (04.30.10)
No... you are all Middle Easterners, Levantines, Semites... asians all. As for Herr Federman (a biblical/levantine name?), he needs to step away from that third helping of latkas... as an aside, I didn't realize that the potato was indigenous to the Levantine.
24. #21 Don't you bring that name into your rotten mouth again..
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (04.30.10)
Jörg Haider was a man,lived like a man and died like a man. Too much for someone with your brain capacity to understand. Chris Rotten Loser !!!!
25. YES WE CAN
Zionist forever   (04.30.10)
This is an oportunity for the ORDINARY Israeli to let Obama know we are not fooled by his speeches about how America is committed to Israel and unlike the politicians he can't dictate terms to us. If we want to live in Jerusalem we will. If we want to say NO to Palestinians we will. If we want action taken on Iran we will make sure the politicians know and won't sit back and say we think sanctions only because Obama does. If we want to burn Obamas Image we will and we will do it with PRIDE
26. #1 peter
angry dude ,   schlat, germany   (04.30.10)
Takes me no wonder to hear, that Iran does "great business" with Austria. They also voted Joerg Haider, the Nazi. So, clean your own closet, namely analyze the lack of prosecution by the Austrian state after WW2 until today.
27. #1-After Iran collapse u will say "We were victims of trade
Alan ,   SA   (04.30.10)
28. JUST ONE QUESTION ;-)
Benjamin ,   singapore   (04.30.10)
The Rabbi Shimon's tomb.Is his tomb located in the Northern Isarel Village of Meron ? ben singapore :-)
29. 3
Zionist forever   (04.30.10)
Burning the US flag is to make the statement we hate America. Burning Obamas image means our statement is we hate the individual Hussain Obama not all Americans. Just because your president of the United States doesn't mean we can't consider you to be an enemy because of your actions and we can't burn the image of our enemy. I am all in favour of Israelis sending the message just because your president doesn't mean we should bow down to him and consider it wrong to hate him.
30. #24, Dear Peter...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.30.10)
please do not weep...because I have just mentioned Your idol... Jörg Haider was only a poor wimp and a silly bag...now You can admire Ahmadinedashad and the rest of the mad mullahs, really strong men...thats what You like ???
