2. Whatever you do
Salma ,   Palestine   (05.19.11)
You can not beautify the ugliness which is the occupation.
3. LIKE!
Talula ,   Israel   (05.19.11)
4. whitewash
Phil ,   world   (05.19.11)
You can paint the walls but you can;t whitewash the illegal occupation
5. Salma is a male Jew extreme leftist.
Ben Avraham ,   Tel Aviv   (05.19.11)
I know his identity. It was easy and he better be careful.
6. to #2 jews were in Hebron 400 years and more
ghostq   (05.19.11)
it isn't a setelment, only yesterday I saw interview with 92 year old pali who basicaly said what her father did in 1948 to the jews of Hebron, the interview was on the Arab media. so there you have it Hebron isn't a setelment there is no occupation there cause jews r the for more than 8 generations.
7. no political message?
jj   (05.19.11)
a painting of the shining 3rd temple? "They love this country and don't make any distinction between towns inside and out of the Green Line"? sorry there guys, but you have just made 2 political statements in just one short article. i wonder how many other "non-political" paintings there are. also, the very act of beautifying something ugly is to persuade the people that it's not really there. i dont necessarily pass any judgment on these guys for it, but at least be honest about what youre doing and if you are being honest, be a little bit less naive/informed...
8. this is our land
Golan ,   Modiin   (05.19.11)
Colonialist Arabs may remain under the condition that they respect our laws and do not act as a fifth column. Otherwise they can return to the Hejaz and the homes they stole from Jews in Khybar and Madina.
9. Yo Bro....it feels like the 70's all over again
Rich ,   Raanana & NYC   (05.19.11)
Its like a scene out of Baretta.The only thing that missing now is the number 4 train going by, some pimps being chased by a bunch of cops and some funky music music playing in the background .....Ahhhh - it brings back memories :-)
10. Jews Founded Hevron
David M.   (05.19.11)
Not only Jews founded and built Hevron, but they had continuously lived in the city from its founding until 1929 when Arab massacred more than 69 Jews. The bloody attack on the Jewish quarter forced Hevron Jews to relocate to Jerusalem. Check the historic facts on Google. It's completely absurd to call Hevron a settlement.
11. #2 Try looking past the end of your nose
israel   (05.19.11)
and maybe you'll see another way to view life.
12. Salma, if you really want to meet
Yossef   (05.19.11)
I'm back in J'lem next week. You'll explain me why you think that the land can belong to anyone else than השם This land where you just pass, another one will pass after you, when you'll be dead, and another one and so on. This land doesn't belong to you, nope. It doesn't belong to me neither, I admit.
13. #5 LoooooooooooooL
Salma ,   Palestine   (05.19.11)
why male and not female? just wondering . by the way, this is the first time I've heard your name...... any way tsharafna ya azizi, Ben ; )
14. Yossef #12
Jake   (05.19.11)
As you rightly said, the Land belongs to השם, and He does with it what He wants. And He gave the Land to the Jewish people, to own it, as an eternal possession.
15. Hiiiiiiii Yossef
Salma ,   Palestine   (05.19.11)
I miss you, It has been long time since we didn't talk to each other, sure I really want to meet you, take care my dear : ) Yossef , what does השם mean? I can speak Hebrew ( well, not fluently ) but i can not read or write it : (
16. No 2 Salma
Madeleine ,   Rehovot Israel   (05.19.11)
And whatever you do or say you cannot beautify the ugliness of the Palestinians and their new chums Hamas. As long as you opt for hatred, bloodshed and suicide bombers you will be uglier than sin.
17. No. 4 Phil
Madeleine ,   Rehovot Israel   (05.19.11)
Illegal occupation by the Palis, I'm sure you mean. Hebron was Jewish long, long before t here were any Palis and the so-called West Bank was legal given to Israel under the 1922 San Rmo Treaty and signed on by Chaim Weizman and the Emir Faisal. That's a treaty that's never been rescinded. Oh, and I bet you have just forgotten about the Arab massacre of Jews in Hebron, in 1929. I guess it must have slipped your mind since you've been so busy churning out your anti-Israel venom.
18. #2 Salma - What happened
BEN JABO ,   ISIRAEL   (05.19.11)
You forgot to include Jordan in your alleged address ? Nothing quite so ugly as someone in Bahrain pretending that they're in Palestine & Jordan, to hide the fact that the actually in Bahrain refusing to come here and show themselves in person
19. #4 Phil - Be aware
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (05.19.11)
That anyone that uses "World" or the like as part of his address alerts everyone that he is merely a windbag who lives in his own little isolated world There is no NO ILLEGAL OCCUPATION, it's our land Look at your Bible or the Koran, there's absolutely no mention of Palestine in either of those tomes, as a matter of fact, there's no mention of Jerusalem in the Koran, I defy you to show me where i's mentioned !!! Next time, look up the facts before you shoot blanks The alleged entity of Palestine, never had a king or ruler, nor did it have coins or a Capital city, something that never existed couldn't have anything as proof of it's existence
20. #4 There is no illegal occupation
Phil ,   Ireland   (05.19.11)
Please quote which law states Israel is illegally occupying anything. Just like the state of Palestine, it doesn't exist.
21. This is True
Dvir Yaakon ,   Jerusalem   (05.20.11)
That's why it is time for you to leave our Jewish City and our Jewish State.
22. Palestine will survive
Palestinian ,   Ramallah, Palestine   (05.20.11)
...and later when the owners of the city (Palestinians) wash these imported paintings out, Occupying Israel will once again play the victim. (To make it clear, Israel occupies not only the west bank, but all the lands it was formed on)
23. #22 How can something which doesn't exist survive?
Phil ,   Ireland   (05.20.11)
There is no such place as Palestine. To make it clear, the Jewish state of Israel is legally in existence and always will exist.
