31. What amazes me the most
Gabriel ,   Leiden, Netherlands   (04.08.12)
Is that a former member of the Schutzstaffel takes upon himself the challenge of portraying Israel as the behemoth of the world, while labouring under the miscomprehension that his personal past left him with any moral authority whatsoever. It hasn't.
32. 12 - Waffen SS trooper Grass ,...
split ,   US   (04.08.12)
He was 11 when WWII started and 17 when ended, you ignorant idiot. A name calling, lies and innuendos character assassination says something about you not the other way around ,...
33. Grass will now be most welcome..
Castor Troy ,   Los Angeles-USA   (04.08.12)
in Iran, and in Syria, countries were "peacefull" regime slaugther their own people while wagoing terror war in the world. Nothing surprizing when one knows the nazi past of herr Grass. Birds of a feather
34. #26. Konrad: He did not think "differently".
Tom ,   USA   (04.08.12)
He was an active Waffen SS military man, by extension presumably a Nazi murderer - what else did the SS at the Eastern front? Many of his "comrades" were put on trial by Special Courts (Polish Sądy Specjalne) for crimes committed against the Polish people. On 22 January 1946, the single-instance Supreme National Tribunal was formed, with a mission to try the main perpetrators of crimes committed by the Third Reich in the occupied Polish territories. The best known judge was Emil Stanisław Rappaport.

37. Why all the fuss about his statement ? ,...
split ,   US   (04.08.12)
Because he dared to say loud what the rest of civilised world whispers ,... An avalanche starts with one snow flake - If I was you I would start listening instead of barking and yelping ,...
38. If anybody did not understand till now
olim hadashim ,   tel aviv/israel   (04.08.12)
how the nation which bore Goethe became the nation which perpetuated the Holocaust.It was the likes of the intellectuals of the caliber like G.G. which manipulated the German nation and fanned the latent flames of antisemitism.
39. Who wants to visit the land of Apartheid?
Ahmet ,   Turkey   (04.08.12)
40. #32 what name calling ?
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (04.08.12)
He said he was a Waffen SS trooper. Now you call him a liar? Not nice at all. Next you will say that American GIs who executed Waffen SS instead of capturing them were criminals.
41. #40. You can be sure...
Tom ,   USA   (04.08.12)
These posters are rabid Jew haters pestering not only Jewish forums but even foreign (Polish) ones too.
42. SARAH B FROM USA
sick mind ,   from mental hospital   (04.08.12)
sarah b from usa, does she lives in ynet? ynet writes for? is she a columnist for ynet? is she an ynet journalist ? getting paid to write ynet? who the hell is sarah b? if at least write with common sense,i would understand,but even that
43. Holohoax deniers belong in prison...
(04.08.12)
44. Differently, #22, 26
Konrad ,   Warsaw, Poland   (04.08.12)
1. Guenther Grass volunteered in the last months of the war for the Wehrmacht, but was drafted into the SS. As a 17 years old boy. It doesn't make him "a Nazi murderer", by extension, or presumably, or otherwise. 2. Do not attempt to teach me history, especially Polish history - please. 3. The proposal to kill Grass is sick. And can come only from a sick mind. K.
45. 40 - Next you will say that ,...
split ,   US   (04.08.12)
Nope !!! I repeat you're an ignorant idiot - Now ask yourself why do the IDF drafts Israeli youth at 18 not 17?
46. Long live Germany, long live Guenter Grass...
Mark Wilson ,   U.S.A.   (04.08.12)
Its about time someone in Europe expresses what they really believe Israel to be... A war crimes state that is a threat to world peace...
47. No 39 Land of Apartheid
Emma ,   London   (04.08.12)
You mean any of the Arab countries like Saudi Arabia which doesn't allow Jews in?
48. #39: Who wants to visit Turkey the land of Armenian Genocide
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (04.08.12)
Turkey practices genocide and racial hatred against the Kurds and you call Israel an "Apartheid Country". In the First World War Turkey butchered Arabs! Did you know that? Do you even know what Apartheid was? I suggest you read the proper history books and not the Islamic Fundamentalist version of history!
49. #44. Yeah, the innocent kid...
Tom ,   USA   (04.08.12)
From Wiki: "With the Panzer Division he saw active combat from February 1945 until he was wounded on 20 April 1945" He had at least 3 month "quiet coffee break" at which time "inadvertently" somehow got wounded. I am Eastern European: I do know the truth, bro.
50.  Guenter Grass
suter ,   tel aviv israel   (04.08.12)
i belive ,the wiesenthal center have to check guenther grass past . and rigth people have to boycot , buy books of him and then burne the books in open ceromonie. grass would feed the shoes of some german nazzis , shame on that person he should burn in hell
51. 40 - Some details ignorant pinhead ,...
split ,   US   (04.08.12)
He was DRAFTED into the 10th SS PANZER DIVISION. Frundsberg. With that Division he saw active combat from February 1945 until he was wounded on 20 April 1945. At that time his Division he was a MINOR fought a strictly defensive battles on German territory and got nothing to do with the SS units that you're trying to affiliate him with ,...
52. Yishai deserves Nobel Prize
Admirer ,   Sweden   (04.08.12)
Take from Grass the hypocrite and give to Yishai that makes his best efforts to introduce foreign workers and deport refugees.
53. And The Good News is:
Tom ,   USA   (04.08.12)
It's a sweet, heartening feeling to see and read about the absolute, bitter frustration of the united Nazi-Leftist Jew haters. This old scumbag expressed the disappointment that they all share: a nuclear armed Israel cannot be annihilated by them, as it was the case some 70 years ago. The gist of the matter is that they are conscious of their impotence and all what they can do is to disgorge a trite, verbal antisemitic diarrhea wherever they live and on these permissive forums.
54. Grass
Harold ,   USA   (04.08.12)
Is Grass interested to visit Israel.
55. Guenter Grass
Harold ,   USA   (04.08.12)
There are thousands like Guenter Grass who served the SS and they are free roaming around and probably visited Israel several times. Has Yishai checked what I am talking about.
56. #49
Konrad ,   Warsaw, Poland   (04.08.12)
1. Whatever. But, mind you, I am no bro for you. 2. The question is: Is there anything that could excuse one Sarah B. (presumably well known here) openly calling for killing Mr. Grass? K.
57. 51 - Correction ,...
split ,   US   (04.08.12)
It is: "At that time his Division he was a MINOR fought" ,... It was supposed to be: "At that time he was a MINOR" ,... Sorry ! ,...
58. Look at Grass's Age: 84
Israelit ,   Israel   (04.08.12)
He must have been born around 1928 or thereabout. That means he was part of a cursed generation raised to hate the Jewish people, to revere war and killing. May he get his just rewards, when he faces his maker, hopefully sooner than later.
59. #51. Watch the fim footage of Hitler
Tom ,   USA   (04.08.12)
At bestowing medals and shaking the hands of 14-18 year old Hitler Jugend volunteers when he emerged from his bunker in Berlin. His lame hand is behind his back. The Hitlerjugend SS divisions were even more bloodthirsty and vicious than the older soldiers. There are plenty of info on them, you wretched "pinhead",
