"freedom does not mean we should turn to animals." to be honest, i prefer my dogs over any human any day. they've honestly never cheated me, lied to me, threaten me, start fights, demand too much etc always honest and peaceful. try getting the arabs and israelies to do that.
62. Stupid, Stupid Women
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (11.20.11)
Read Psalm 45, girls.
63. @#3 John Al Quds
Laura ,   UNITED STATES   (11.20.11)
notice how all the good comments from egypt came from the non-muslim community....
64. Nice !! Can we have the names and fon no's of these women ?
WikiMiki   (11.20.11)
65. well, you don't know me BOY!!!!
God   (11.20.11)
66. Much in common,,,, Yes
Ahmad ,   Aswan, Egypt   (11.20.11)
Lets just look at history, ancient history and be truthful, yes there is something in common about this modern state of Israel, these Euro- Israeli girls/women and this young mulatto Egyptian girl who looks actually like a minor doing child porn on the internet. These young women they are both foreigners to the soil they stand upon. As for this expression of freedom, it is tasteless, very,,, and after everybody male and female look in depth to see what's not shown on these naked bodies, get their fill, faking like their just looking at the beautiful naked flesh, and thinking about a revolution, we'll put this sh-t on the back burner and move on and you got a lot of girls/women feeling like Kim Kardashin full of regret and people wondering if she got a brain cause the nude act will take center stage the rest of these girls lives and lower the cost of this good Kosher/Halal Grade A USDA beef, it will become old to much exposure, shelf life gone. You know a lot of what men/woman do is in vain and young Alliaa is somebody that has some issues indeed, not just her countries rights and freedoms she has a boyfriend and he's alright with this, that the world has seen maybe his future wife's naked flesh. Somebody just put a bug in little Aliaa's ear and it's coming out her a-ss, breast and vagina. I believe it was the devil and I know her parents ain't alright with this unless they are Egyptian nudist, most of us are used to seeing people naked it's no big deal until it is pimped liked this. On a 1 to 10 Aliaa gets a zero as for Or Templer the Israeli Jewish young lady she looks like a doped up Heidi Fleiss to me and she did time for her expression of freedoms. Really it's lack of self esteem and whats wrong with my body syndrome for these girls/women,,, they could give a flying fig about Arab Egyptian female rights. Psychologically,,, is there some psychosis in this, next, some will be calling this art. For the Jewish girls the meat market expression says it all and it ain't Grade A.
67. "I wouldn't want my daughter" It ain't neccessary, chill
Jon ,   Country   (11.20.11)
#56 Ahmad you talking and got your foot in your mouth, how can this be, you got to show us this trick LMAO
68. Nude Photo from Egypt
Vicki ,   United States   (11.20.11)
I'm amazed at all the fuss being made over this picture and likewise the picture of the women in Israel. What all these women did was much more difficult and braver than the people sitting in front of their computer screens spitting bile and hate at them. Negativity is born of fear, are you so afraid of freedom of expression?
69. naked is nice, but...
tom ,   toronto, canada   (11.20.11)
let's understand the difference between israel and egypt quite clearly: an israeli woman who poses naked for a camera risks very little, except for (maybe) a little teasing, or unwanted attention. on the other hand, in egypt, this young woman has already received many death threats, and may even be in danger from her own family, because women have been killed for far less. imagine if the situation were reversed - would egyptian women rally in solidarity for an israeli, even for an arab israeli?
70. no 2
Mike ,   Phila, USA   (11.20.11)
i bet ur 1 of those 350 pound "ladies", which gets jealous when sees a decent looking human being walking by. if they wanna strip and post their pix online who r u to say thats it wrong?
71. Why I got to have a filthy mind? I got daughters, + morals
Seth ,   Canada   (11.20.11)
#27 rich of Toronto you got your opinions I got mine, but if you come around me or my family naked I'm callin the police,
72. Stupid stupid women...
JukkaKoo ,   Vantaa Finland   (11.20.11)
read psalms to act like it is said in them. Wise women know how to live their lives in a right way without written texts, free from the pressure of religion or government. God made us originally nude and nudity is beauty. Hopefully Arabic world will be peaceful and free some day and all people there equal. Today it is not so. Women dont have same rights than men and that, if something is disgusting !
73. #2 Salma...your lot have been turning to animals
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (11.20.11)
for yonks.. I'm aware of an incident near the border fence with Israel whereby a Lebanese farmer was spared an IDF bullet because he he only wanted a bit of rumpy pumpy with his jenny.
74. #18 Adam, unfortunately you're 100% right
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (11.20.11)
I worked for Naot Hakikar Tours for 3 years in Sinai and Egypt in the mid-nineties. Even then, the Mahabarat (Egyptian secret police) would give hell to Egyptian tour guides who applied to visit us..even to Eilat
75. big thx from arab world
Mohammed ,   Syria   (11.20.11)
Aliea is an atheist and enlightened woman, and she'd surely appreciated this move by these brave women. Homage from Syria-Damascus. yes for freedom, and yes for peace now and forever..
76. OK. Enough...
rob ,   Orangevale USA   (11.20.11)
I am going straight to reality here. The fact that these Israeli women wanted to strip naked in solidarity, says everything about the way women are treated everyday. The feelings for the need for this kind of 'solidarity,' puts emphasis on the general inequality women must bear, even in the most tolerant of societies. The Egyptian Lady ( I use that word in full respect) can probably be legally tortured for this act of defiance. Do any of you think of that when Salma reacts with disgust/revulsion? The same definitely applies to her. It may be that none of the T-Backers (all mostly male like myself) are even aware that there is a double standard, (remember the very real threat of death by some 'honor killer') and they deride Salma as the chauvinist fools they are. When a person is raised in a society of persecution and second class status, (sound familiar?) the only thing they can maintain is personal dignity. Salma, I dont really agree with you on much, but I respect you for your piety and self respect. As for your revulsion of the naked body, well I hope you enjoy the "right place at the right time." My mother said the same thing. I have found that there are many 'right places' , timing not so good though. Lol. Small world. Shalom/ assalamu alaikum. Rob
77. #34 Incorrect
Henry from New York ,   USA   (11.20.11)
Actuallyt Salma, according to the science known as Anthropology and our beloved sub-science of archaeology, we can tell where clothing came from. Clothing, especially tailored, came about as a result of desire to keep warm during the last Ice Age. In warmer climates, it is for purposes of class-differentiation and ceremonial purposes. Later on, it came to be that clothing was about class and modesty and this idea spread of course so that now extensive clothing is the norm except in a few societies. It doesn't have anything to do with setting us apart from animals, which is just silly.
78. Hey John of "Al-Quds".
Vlad   (11.20.11)
GET THE HELL OUT OF ISRAEL!
79. thank you so much for writing this
or teppler   (11.20.11)
every positive message from egypt is a blessing! cant wait for peace!
80. Solidarity or Death Sentence?
Ed ,   USA   (11.20.11)
I don't know how posting a nude picture of oneself is act of freedom, but I do know that this Egyptian girl has put her own life in jeopardy. The last thing she needs is a bunch of Israeli girls expressing solidarity with her with their own nude photos. For the Muslim Brotherhood that exercises increasing influence in Egypt, this alone could be a reason to kill her.
81. I would only show Arabs my naked finger
Marco ,   Spain   (11.20.11)
82. Solidarity with Aliaa
Miley ,   Los Angeles, USA   (11.20.11)
Here in the USA, I doubt we would have even heard of Aliaa if it wasn't for your non-verbal way to support Aliaa's quest or freedom for all Egyptian women. Naked bodies are a much more refined protest than bombs. Thank you brave Israeli women for supporting freedom of expression, knowing that you would endure such viriol. Women lead the way!
83. Media whores
Sam   (11.20.11)
Self-promotion. + no shame
84. Of course she is as popular as daffy leef
jason white ,   afula, israel   (11.20.11)
She also did not serve in the I.D.F. We will see how popular daffy and her gang will be when the I.D.F. is weakened due to cuts in the defense budget. These women have nothing better to do with their time? They can walk around nude for the next thousand years and it will not change arab society.
85. Thank you so Much :)
Mohammed ,   Cairo,Egypt   (11.20.11)
Thank you for your support you are all so beautiful and kind I hope that one day we can share nude beaches together <3
86. #53 - if man clothed himself against the elements...
William ,   Israel   (11.20.11)
then didn't he/she in the end mimic the animals? Salma is so full of crap, her complexion is brown.
87. #54 - thankfully for you, you don't have to
William ,   Israel   (11.20.11)
In Gaza, you can get a woman through some honor agreement between families, and if she resists you can throw acid in her face (then send her to an Israeli hospital for a life saving treatment). If you want to go the exotic route or have a tainted family honor, you could always buy yourself a Russian bride. Gazan men mostly say blond hair and blue eyes are their preference. And if they do something you can't understand, just stone them. Easy peasy.

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (11.20.11)
Nudity is beauty? While I agree that nudity is not perverted, It's obvious you have never seen me with my clothes off. Beauty isn't exactly what I would call it. (sigh)
89. #80- Israeli support will hardly make it worse
William ,   Israel   (11.20.11)
Islamists already torture, rape, and stone women who do this. I doubt that Islamists would say "NOW you have the support of Israelis?? We will REALLY make you regret your actions now".
90. #66 - "they are all foreigners in the land they stand on"
William ,   Israel   (11.20.11)
First, are you sure about that? Many, many Jews were living in the modern State of Israel despite the sacking and ethnic cleansing of Jews by the Romans almost 2000 years ago. Second, per your logic, Arabs too are standing on land in which they are foreigners and still occupiers. Arabs and Islam are from Arabia, and that's where the hundreds of thousands of desert tribesmen came from to sack, occupy, torture, convert, rob, culturally cleanse, and kill people in lands from Morocco to Bangladesh. Arabs admit their invasion and are proud of it somehow believing their invasion and theft is legally valid, while natives of the land, especially those who return after centuries, is illegal. The only thing that is accurate in your post, is your strong racism which makes everyone who is not a pure Arab Muslim as "the other".
