... they usually back down. As the kids would say, "If you don't like it, lump it." Iranians are welcome to take their business elsewhere. In other more shameful news, the Jewish Music Institute of the University of London's SOAS, fearing the wrath of the BDSers, refused a donation from the Government of Israel for its Jewish Music Festival. It's a curious world where an Israeli Arab in Prague does the right thing, but cowardly Jews in London don't.

Congratulations on standing up to a bully! Iran has become the World's bully and you make Israel proud! Good job! I hope that I will have a chance to stay at your hotel when I visit Prague soon!!

Good job hotel manager, you deserve a raise. Salute to you and y-net for reporting.

Well done the manager and shame on the Iranian diplomat.

An article that will never appear in Haaretz

socialist bolshevik commissars who brought the wonders of collective farming (kibbutzes) to the kulaks of Ukrainia. You reap what your seed has sown.

Despite many talkbackers asking for the name of the hotel I would urge YNET NOT to publish it. Due to the nuts out there--it would paint a target on the back of the manager. After all, he is an Arab who dared to the right thing and wants to support HIS country. Kol Hakoved to this unnamed manager at an unnamed hotel!

More fool mommy and daddy for running away. Look whow much better the lives are of those who stayed and didn't listen to the treacherous Arab leaders who told them to get out of the way of their invading armies and that in 3 days they'd be able to return because by then the Jews would be dead or fled. so are mommy and daddy very upset that we Jews didn't die? tough. live with it.

Kudos to the smart manager.

#6. Egypt is a Moslem State though there are Copts there. Britain is a Christian State though there are Moslems and Jews.

we shold stand against this antisemitic people and denie them any access......it should happend more often...

I wish to know which hotel it is so I could send a thank-you email, but then again I think #37 is right, as such revalation might pose danger to this brave Israeli Arab.

During the first Intifada, employees at a Milwaukee hotel hung an Israeli flag in front of the hotel. But the hotel owner was converting it into condominiums, and after complaints to the real estate company trying to sell the condominiums, the flag was removed.

Israel is our homeland! We are loyal citizens of Israel!

just for your information.

Three cheers for the hotel manager!

But Salma, most Arab states like Saudi Arabia and Jordan only allow Arabs. so why would you be anything but supportive toward the only Jewish state who also happens to have a tolerant, indeed a very pluralistic attitude toward minorities. That doesn't happen anywhere in the Arab world as we saw by having 850,000 Jews thrown out as paupers. My family included.

Israeli Arab, they are on the RIGHT side of right and wrong. Thank you sir. You make us all proud. I am a proud Zionist. I don't hate Arabs and I don't hate Muslims. I only hate people who want to kill me and mine. Can the Islamist say the same? I think NOT.

Israel IS a Jewish State. However, unlike Muslim states, the single Jewish state treats ALL people the same. Everyone has the same rights and the same obstacles to overcome. We DO NOT governmentally make the 20% who are not Jewish second class citizens. Nor do we tolerate their unfair abbuse. NO ONE is above the DEMOCRATIC law. ANY person who victimizes an Israeli citizen, without regard to their sex, creed or RELIGION, will be prosecuted, under the law. All citizens vote, run for office and have the right to participate in the government. Unlike Muslim countries, where it's an effort just for a Christian or a Jew to survive and usually forbidden to even where jewelry showing your religion.

An Egiptian can be a Muslim with out changing his Etnicity. Probably 80% to 90% of all Egiptians are of Nubian or Coptic desent. Turks Kurds and Iranians are non arab Nations but are Muslim. So do not get your shorts in a knot, read some History of the Midel East you may even learn some thing.

you need to read more history and understand the evils and wickedness of Islam

Give one to the Iranian Diplomat, with instructions of where he should put it

How do you know 80 to 90% of Arab Egyptians are of Coptic descent? The Coptic people still speak a unique dialect that linguists have linked to the dialect spoken during the age of the pharos. The Arabs simply don't speak it. Instead of suggesting Sami learn more history why don't you recommend a text that supports your claim if you can.

Kol Hakavod !!! We, in Israel all salute you!!!! and let the Iranian thug weep....

If you really want to upset the guy, hang the Iranian flag next to the Israeli flag but slightly lower.

Salma, I have always suspected that your greatest desire in life has been to obtain the Blue I.D. card and become a citizen of the "terrible oppressive regime" - the only country in the Middle East where the Arabs are allowed to VOTE !

@Salma perhaps the manager is thankful that he lives in a free society as an equal citizen, and would rather live in the Jewish state as an equal rather than an Arab state, with his family and children fed on hatred and lies, and treated as cannon fodder.

To the Israeli Arab manager, thank you, for standing up for the State of Israel, your State and my State - together, OUR State will continue to be successful and be a beacon of coexistence in this tough neighborhood. Your simple action has begun to unravel the heinous actions of Tibi. Bishara, Zoabi, and others, from which we all suffer. Well done.

Living in the past, Arik? Sad little man. Either way, complaints or not, it was a hotel being converted into private residences so now its just a business matter, not politics. Hell, there are communities in the US that ban having the American flag flown outside or even hung inside a person's home. One such story from before Christmas 2010 near Boston had an elderly veteran who fought hard (and was injured) for his country in war being sued to take down the flag in his front yard. There is no end to selfish idiots, even in Milwaukee.
