Great idea Terry, but can they not be sent to EAST JERUSALEM or even Gaza??? I'm sure the arabs would welcome more of their own "hungry" type.
32. #6 Terry? Terry? Is that really you?
Schreiber   (11.08.10)
Africans to Yesha? Armed Africans? People! Someone has taken over our friend Terry' s mind! Anyone! Do something!!!!!
33. Salma - Israel #7
Moragh   (11.08.10)
If the Africans are unwanted in Israel, why would the Knesset want them in Jerusalem and Jericho which are also Israeli cities. You don't believe me Salma, then read the Bible for the Gospel truth!

Andrew Brehm   (11.08.10)
So when the Bible and the Quran spoke of the "people of Israel", what did they mean? Judaism is the religion of the Jewish people, just like Hebrew is the language of the Jewish people. This not an invention of the Zionists. There is a Jewish people just like there is an English people. The Jewish nation is just much much older.
35. #12 - you are uninformed...
seadog1946 ,   Shooter's Island, NJ   (11.08.10)
try googling the words "nagin" and "chocolate city".
36. Hitler had similar comments regarding jews
Avi ,   Israel   (11.08.10)
some of us learnt from that but quite obviously some have not.
37. #36 you don't make sense
(11.08.10)
Did Hitler, like Babayoff, quote the Israeli police? Or are all laws regulating immigration like Hitler? What do you mean?
38. Racism and national sovereignty are different
Jew ,   Israel   (11.08.10)
Unfortunately, the matters being confused here are being vastly muddled. #11 seems to have read legal residents with some sort of refugee status who are legally able to seek gainful employment. While a slew of you are under the impression that Ynet's misuse of the term refugee means "one escaping persecution." This definition does not extend to escaping economic problems of a home nation so non-classified foreigners are simply not refugees. Furthermore, MK Katz does not extend his warning to dark skinned people including the naturalized population of the State of Israel so every comment throwing up their hands in outrage over racial discrimination of Apartheid proportions is just simply wrong. All nations have the legal right to set laws about lawful immigration and the handling of illegal aliens found within their borders. I think many of us would be shocked to learn other nations protocols for removal of foreign nationals... that is what someone with no status as a refugee is. Just another illegal foreign national who cannot legally stay within the borders of a foreign state. Simple. No race card, no evil religious conspiracy.
39. enlist them into a special army unit
miri ,   ashkelon   (11.08.10)
we can surely use their help!
40. Tel Aviv Residence Will Move To
Ron ,   OC, USA   (11.08.10)
America, Canada, Australia. Either Israel takes back its country from 300,000 illegal Arabs and its 100,000 illegal Africans or Israel will cease to be a place for Jews. The land will revert back to swampland.
41. jewish immigrants
Micha ,   Berlin   (11.08.10)
Israel is open for every jewish immigrant, right? So what if african people who wish to immigrate into the jewish state just adopt Judaism as their religion? Everyone would be fine ...
42. #6 Terry. The last thing our bureaucrats want
tanya ,   tel aviv israel   (11.08.10)
is CHANGE.
43. REPLY #11 Amen sister
avi ,   israel   (11.08.10)
110 % correct
44. Jewish people on the brink of extinction, smaller population
Jae ,   Lynn US   (11.08.10)
than all other major religions by 100s of percentage points. smaller country than virtually the top 100 economies. thus we are concerned about illegal infiltration and nothing being done about it. There must be a way the world can help africans, and Israel can have one less threat for its existence.
45. Response to #39 and #41
John DeLancy ,   Alaska, USA   (11.09.10)
Enlisting them to help defend the Jewish nation is a wonderful idea. The only caveat would be to ensure their loyalty, as well as their dedication to their task. Have them at a minimum affirm their commitment to Israel as a Jewish, democratic nation. And also train them well so that when the fighting starts, they will remain at their posts or in their formations. Asking them if they wish to convert - this is something I've been harping on for a while now. If they are committed to Israel, perhaps our new neighbors would take that logical step and officiall join the family of Israel. It just makes sense. In addition, I should mention that true Christians - the ones who know and believe the Scriptures - will support the Jewish nation of Israel. So first invite them to convert (NO pressure, this would have to be their choice, and do note that this is not something that one does on a whim), and then ask if they will commit to support of Israel as a Jewish, democratic nation. If either is the case, welcome them. And then get rid of the others immediately. THEN everyone would be fine.
46. Stupidity
Patrick ,   Tel aviv , Israel   (11.09.10)
This guy is just as stupid as his statements. we work , they don't(haredim) we pay taxes ,they don't we pay social secury (our children don't get medical couverage) , still those who are legal go to the army now and THEY DON'T !!! Now tell me who's USEFUL for this country?? Africans or JOBLESS AND LAZY BEGGERZ?
47. Terrible racists
Bar ,   Hertzliya   (11.18.10)
