3. HOW LOW LEVEL YOU JUDGE ! HOW LOW YOU JUDGE ISRAEL !
ATİLLA KARAGÖZOĞLU   (05.25.10)
4. When you commit a crime expect to be punished. This is
Anat ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
true about Arabs as much as it is about anyone else. All are equal before the law, in Israel and in other liberal democracies.
5. YOU CANT JUDGE A SLAVE AS LONG AS HE IS NOT FREE
ATİLLA KARAGÖZOĞLU   (05.25.10)
YOU MADE THE ARABS TO BE YOUR SLAVES, ISRAEL. SHAME ON YOU. SHAME ON YOU THAT YOU JUDGE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT FREE. I SEE YOUR JUDGEMENT.
6. if you don't like living in tiny israel
dani   (05.25.10)
there are 22 other arab countries, with hundreds of holy cities and mosques all waiting for you.
7. If a Jew pledges allegiance to the American flag, a Jew
Avigdor Ezrahi ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
sings God Save the Queen in the UK, and a Jew would kiss the hand of the King of Saudi Arabia if he were permitted to step on Saudi soil, why can't Arabs simply express their loyalty to the state in which they are citizens?
8. Atilla, Please Help Us Understand
Frankie Littlehammer ,   New Herstal, TX, US   (05.25.10)
In 1389 the Turks defeated the Serbs at the medieval Serbian capital of Kosovo and massacred the Serbian army on a plain that came to be known as the Field of the Blackbirds. For the next 500 years the Turks held Serbia occupied, Turks settled there and some Serbs converted to Islam to improve their position and work with the Turks. So Atilla, please help us in the West understand, why is it that the descendants of those collaborators and settlers are about to get their own states in Bosnia and Kosovo, but you cannot accept that the Jewish people returned to rule their homeland. Is it that Muslims have more rights than others? Are you saying that Muslims have the right to rule the world? Other peoples have no right to self-determination? Hamas has aleady set the re-reconquest of Spain as their next goal: don't the Spanish people have the right to rule themselves? No need for all-capital letters. You say you visited America. Well, I cannot go visit Mecca and Medina.
9. 1-3 Attila, your country invented MIDNIGHT EXPRESS
Salomon ,   Berlin   (05.25.10)
As usual,There is no logic in what you post. Slaves cannot vote, slaves cannot travel and this has not been the case with Makhoul But If someone is suspected to sell his country, he should be fairly judged, and this is what is happening to Makhoul now in Israel. You, dont tell me what your country does to spies and traitors. Hang them! Send them to forced labor! Also tell me what they do to innocent people! Send them to working camps like Askale.Or bomb them to death in Kurdistan. This is what your country has been doing as " good" behaviour. You have to learn a lesson in democracy before judge Israel.
10. Atilla,you know
Hamid ,   Iranian   (05.25.10)
You know, Makhoul is at the Hilton compared to what the Iranian government did to democracy freedom fighters after the rigged elections there. Atilla. go and protest about the Iranian people with no rights if you want to do justice. We need you here. .
11. #7: A Jew would never kiss the hand of
Vardina   (05.25.10)
the Saudi king. Where did you take such a weird idea from?
12. Israeli arabs ARE loyal to Israel
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
We even serve in the IDF and die defending this country. True there are radical among us but they are minority. I'm still to see what exactly this person did to threaten Israel's security!!!
13. Yigal Amir was not turtured ..
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
Not sure why torture him..... Unless assasinating a prime minister does not violate Israel's security, Amir was not turtured..
14. atilla karagozoglu
danny ,   new york, usa   (05.25.10)
There is no justification for what he did. You must differentiate between supporting a side and supporting ANYTHING that side does... Additionally, what Turkey does to the Kurds isn't so nice and yet no1 hears anything about it... hmmmm
15. #1 - How can you expect a Kurd to be loyal to Turkey?
William ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
Yet you oppress them quite harshly and many languish in your jails for daring to speak against Turkey. Infact, you have a strict law on your books that throws anyone in jail for a very long time simply for questioning the Turkish govt. In that respect, the Arabs of Israel (not "Palestinians" - BIG difference) are much more free.
16. #11 - probably speaking of Rahm Emmanuel
William ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
17. #13 - why do you think this Arab was tortured?
William ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
Other than the word of his lawyer who said he looked tired and spoke of pains. I also look tired and have some pains when I switch to a harder mattress in a new place.
18. This Arab was held to the same standards as Jews
William ,   Israel   (05.25.10)
I don't know what a better definition of democracy is. Jew, Muslim, Arab, Russian, etc. - break the law, be punished. To demand any special treatment is in itself an Apartheid rule. Go to an Arab country if you want racist benefits of supremacy.
