31. What are you going to try Israeli leaders on?
William ,   Israel   (09.02.11)
You can't make up laws, Zoabi, though Arabs and Leftists often try. You asked for the investigation. You sought it's credibility to support your war against the Jewish State and your racist views, and were publicly spanked for your sedition. This report, like the investigative report by Panorama, exposed your lies and showed Israel adhered to Intl Law. Don't like it? Well, tough. It's quite apparent that your racism gives you justification for breaking laws and abusing human rights of your fellow citizens. It's the same justification Leftists use to call for an apartheid-like homogeneous Arab E. Jerusalem despite the courts granting Jews the right to return to their illegally stolen property by Jordan. With each passing day, though it's very slow, the legal system shows Israel is legitimate and acts legally.
32. "Israel used force...to teach those a lesson..."
William ,   Israel   (09.02.11)
if so, why did only 9 "activists" get shot, out of 600 belligerent occupants on the terrorist boat? You stated the IDF used excessive force, but in your own testimony and on video, you admitted you were in a lower level and never saw a thing. Doesn't that make your claim null and void? Well, one thing the videos did show - was you acting as an obstacle to IDF medics treating the wounded...hoping that those wounded would die and you'd have better PR fodder. How sick you are, Zoabi to play with human lives for your own twisted racist agenda!
33. #1 I wonder ,just like the " "MONITOR GROUP" did she take mo
rachel ,   usa   (09.02.11)
money from him ?
34. Yes, Salma, Zoabi is like "heroin"--
Kayla ,   Florida   (09.02.11)
That is poison. She and all who favor her do not belong in our Holy Land--they defile it. And yes, she should be tried for treason and either be jailed, fined, and/or expelled from Israel, may it happen swiftly. With Hashem's help, may it be so.
35. "Apartheid"?? Arab traitors in the Knesset. They work openly
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (09.02.11)
for Palestine,call for war against Israel,yet the useful idiot brigade yell apartheid. There were no black MP's in SA and those blacks that opened their mouths disappeared. Hangman Goldstone was one of their judges
36. #13 blind man - So?
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.02.11)
37. The only punishment (besides a trial)for this woman should
tom ,   tel aviv   (09.02.11)
be a complete negligence of her utterings/remarks/statements in the Israeli press. Actually that's even a greater punishment for these terrorists- types than a prison. It should be easy to implement, but of course it never shall be done. On the other hand, how many times does one see an Israeli flag or a political person on a front page of an Arab/muslim newspaper?? NEVER! (except when the flag is being burned by a mob). Why? Because the average Arab?Muslim editor or the "man on the street" has got some basic national honor, that we, as Jews lack in a great deal.-not to mention the fact, that there's no such expression as "Self-Hating Muslim"....right?
38. Connecting with other regimes
PaulZion ,   Israel   (09.02.11)
This woman, who cannot keep her poisonous mouth shut, has not said a single word about the massacre of Palestinians in Syria. So much for bleeding hearts. She also accuses Israel of being an Apartheid State and an oppressive regime. I would like to know, which Islamic regime anywhere in the world, would allow someone who spoke out in such an inciteful manner, to walk around free, let alone sit in its parliament? She needs to be shut up.
39. she was trying to evacuation of the injured
zionist forever   (09.02.11)
Zouabi was caught on video telling IDF doctors trying to evacuate the wounded that she is an MK and she is ordering the doctors leave them because they don't want to leave the ship. Before she knew about the video she was saying how she was one of the first to help with evacuations. The woman who claimed to be a heroine was caught in the act trying to create dead martyrs for the media. A Jewish MK wouldn't have got away with a fraction of the stunts she gets to pull and gets away with. As she is an arab though well we want to be tolerant just to show we are not biased against arabs. If she was in an arab state she would have been either locked up for life or executed for crimes against the state, only in Israel can she get away with it. She doesn't believe though Israel has a right to exist and she stands for election to try and undermine the state from within. One thing I would like to know is why miss moral and compassionate Zouabl hasn't said a word about Assad who has killed over 2000 civilians now for the crime of wanting him out... Barak has condemned him and he is not even an arab but Zouabi has stayed silent. When an arab is killing in cold blood she stays silent when Israeli soldiers kill in self defense its like a massacre has taken place. Take her Israeli citizenship & deport her to Hamatan where women are oppressed.
40. Arrest and try Zoabi for sedition
American Sabrah ,   Israel   (09.02.11)
Revoke her membership from the Knesset and deport all treacherous Arabs to Jordan.They can establish a Palestinian state there. No one finds your Arabian princess routine charming in Israel. Put a burqa over your head on your way out. Then you will know what oppression really is.
41. #2. Hanin Zoabi, the great Arab Heroin
A ,   Belgium   (09.02.11)
She is indeed heroin: she is poison and deadly, and apparently the Israeli government is too weak to "kick" her filthy habit.
42. Zanin Zoabi
Jean Cohen ,   Isthmia greece   (09.02.11)
Salma, Zoabi is not a brave woman as you say in talk back number 2. She knows very well that she lives in a democracy and can say what ever she wants. Let me see her act like that in any other country. By god she would be hanging from a tree by now. Don't get me wrong she is entitled to say what ever she wants, but in the Israeli democracy that does not make her brave.
43. 2
zionist forever   (09.02.11)
Salma Did you see the video of her telling IDF doctors she is an MK and she is ordering them not to airlift the wounded from the Mavi Mara? She insisted they want to stay despite the fact they needed hospital treatment. She just wanted top create dead martyrs because as far as she was concerned the more dead people the headlines especially if IDF doctors are not evacuating the wounded. Your heroine obviously knew what she was doing was wrong because before the video came out and spoilt her story she was saying how she was helping evacuate the wounded. Your heroine wanted to create martyrs against their will and its only the professionalism of IDF doctors they lived.
44. Jewish State
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (09.02.11)
Israeli governments weakness Is failing to assert the Jewish State's rights, then expect palestinians and the world to recognise it. Disquality Zoabi, who challenges the Jewish state. Stand up for the Jewish State
45. #2 Salma - Zoabi is "heroin" - Precisely!
Scott ,   USA   (09.02.11)
As a politician, she's certainly a dangerous addictive drug to portions of the Arab public. Or perhaps she has simply taken too much of it and is acting accordingly. She does seem to be a tad, dare I say, self-destructive...
46. And What About the Rockets?
Dallas ,   Canada   (09.02.11)
Has everyone forgotten this ongoing crime which is the origin of this ridiculous argument? Anyone for going after Hamas? If Zoabi has morals she may want to tell her sob story to some of the Israeli victims of terror, instead of tacitly approving of the use of the terror rockets. She should be made to face them in person.
47. Two faced
Df ,   Beer Sheva, Israel   (09.02.11)
It is very interesting how people like Zoabi will jump on any decision by the U.N. that is against Israel but whenever there is a decision by any U.N. body that is even partially supportive of an Israeli position, they will downplay it or outright reject it. Zoabi isn't the only one. The Turkish PM has done the same viv-a-vis the Palmer report. And there are other Israelis who do the same thing. One wonders if they realize their inconsistencies.
48. To Sarah #1 and others
Df ,   Beer Sheva, Israel   (09.02.11)
Even if Zoabi is tried for tr4eason, which I doubt, you would have to wait an eternity for her date with the hangman. The only crime in Israel punishable by the death penalty is crimes against humanity and treason does not, in the legal world, come under that category. At the most, she could be given a life sentence - AFTER her parliamentary immunity is removed by the Knesset, which is also problematical. In any event, she still has parliamentary immunity and I have not heard of a move to strip her of that.
49. I am tired of that bitch !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (09.02.11)
50. Why is this person not being arrested or deported?
JDL ,   USA   (09.02.11)
51. zoabi, your time....
oded ,   usa   (09.02.11)
has past. you are nothing but an insignificant thorn in our sides . resign or be fired ..... at.
52. we all appreciate your work Hanin and...
shadi jj ,   Gaza   (09.02.11)
we all admire your fighting against this racist gov't .... you are graet woman politician ....... keep up your fight against these extremist and rightest MKs in israel
53. deport her now right
crazy ,   pilipinins   (09.02.11)
thats true let her trow in gaza there they will eat her without salt.teror.traitor.i dont know why they will not let her in prison.remember anybody will bless israel GOD bless them also
54. I didn't read the article only the title
Chaim ,   NYC   (09.02.11)
And based on that i'll ask the question: how in the hell is this person still on Israeli payroll, are we Jews that crazy.....
55. Zoabi's & Salma's words prove Israel is a democracy
Isaac Storm   (09.02.11)
Actually, Zoabi demonstrates that Israel is a democracy. So, for all those people out there, hey Salma - I mean you, who constantly belitte Israel as not being a democracy, your rants are without merit. (In fact, the fact that you can say whatever you want on these pages, which you cannot do under PA or Hamas control of the media, speaks for itself.)
56. #13 BLIND OBSERVER
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (09.02.11)
Dream on, it will never happen !! Obama can't afford to take a chance on offending the Jewish voters, he has more than enough problems already, he couldn't even get the time he wanted for the speech he wanted to make
57. #13 - that's funny if true...
William ,   Israel   (09.02.11)
even funnier are the only two Muslim politicians in the Congress coming out against Hamas and demanded they release Shalit and end their terrorist attacks on Israel. Strange bedfellows.
58. Choices
Nimrod B ,   Rishon LeZion   (09.02.11)
the fact that this so called member of parliament uses her seat of power to go against the country that gives her that power is ridiculous and testifies to the lack of skill, knowledge, common sense, moral fiber and consistency she has. I say we give her two choices: 1. Get parachuted into Gaza without phone, money or ID. 2. Give her a nice little house in the south, bordering the strip, and force her to spend there at least 6 days a week, not less than 16 hours for a whole year.
59. How long is this madness going to go on!!!
GHook93 ,   Chicago   (09.02.11)
Zoabi needs to be deported to Gaza. How can the Israeli cowards sit there and allow this women in their government. She needs to go! Why isn't a regular Israel man or women not taking care of this!
60. To: DF at No. 48
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.02.11)
No; two crimes carry the death penalty in Israel. War crimes (chiefly Nazi) and treason. I cannot think of any individual more treasonous than MK Zoabi. I could pull the lever on her myself. I would be grateful for the opportunity, actually. And anyone who knows me will tell you that I am NOT the world's biggest fan of the death penalty.
