1. Sure
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (04.12.12)
Just as soon as Tibi stops supporting them.
2. Tibi's Demands....Pure Chutzpah
Spencer ,   Israel   (04.12.12)
Our Ambassador is 100% correct. Tibi does support terrorism and lauds suicide bombers. Tibi is guilty of sedition and it's a disgrace that he is allowed to sit in the Knesset.
3. Tibi
Samson ,   Penllyn USA   (04.12.12)
Tibi or not Tibi, that is the question. The answer is quite obvious.
4. What other country would allow him to advise the enemy?
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (04.12.12)
A he works to undermine the democracy that allows his treasonous behaviour. Everybody except him obviously understands the meaning of praising martyrs who murder Israelis
5. the problem is
daniela ,   panama   (04.12.12)
that Tibi himself does not know what truth is, that´s why when he faces one he cannot recognize it is true.. Its called the Pinochio syndrome and it has attacked many palestinians and muslims around the world (Ahmadinejad, Nasrallah, Assad, Tibi, Zoabi et company)
6. He said while
Steve from Raleigh   (04.12.12)
Waving a grenade over his head and exhorting Arabs to carbomb Jews.....
7. watch Tibi support suicide bombers here
Yoni the JEW ,   Jewish Homeland   (04.12.12)
it is the typical palestinian rhetoric and lies. You can see exactly what Tibi thinks of suicide bombers and just how much he supports and promotes it. go to youtube and type in tibi suicide bombers or click right here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgO_DBPzhwo
8. Tibi is correct in one respect
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.12.12)
No one should speak so disparagingly about a deputy speaker of the Knesset. However, in light of the fact that everything Ambassador Oren said is the absolutely truth -- and since there is quite a bit more he COULD have said about Tibi's outrageous activities -- Tibi should resign from the Knesset. Immediately -- or be removed from his position. Heaven knows he has flouted enough rules. And he can take his sidekick, Zoabi, with him. As to suing for libel -- snicker. It's only libel or slander if it isn't true. Tibi needs to chew on that for a while.
9. #3
Jonathan ,   MN/US   (04.12.12)
Ok that pun caused PHYSICAL pain.
10. If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck...
shmulke ,   w coast USA   (04.12.12)
11. it is tibi who is the liar, engages in treasonous, anti-dem
ralph   (04.12.12)
anti-democratic behaviour. he should be charged and exiled.
12. Ahmad Tibi
ltrail ,   United States   (04.12.12)
"Ahmad Tibi, who once advised PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat and recently praised Palestinian 'martyrs' — a well-known euphemism for suicide bombers — [Tibi] serves as a member and deputy speaker of the Knesset" Let's see, now: Tibi advised Arafat. Arafat supported martyrdom by muslims. Tibi may not like truth to be told.
13. there is a liar there, but it's not Oren.
rick ,   walnut creek   (04.12.12)
in a way, it's strange to hear tibi call anyone a liar. tibi is, after all, a complete stranger to the truth. but, then again, tibi's tongue can move in any direction. he cares nothing about the truth; he lies with with utter insouciance. caught in one lie, he'll effortlessly shift to another, and, to another. apart from his mendacity, he is a corrupt advocate for Israel's enemies. he is a disgusting reptile.
14. Treasonous Slugs!
Bill Foonman ,   Jacksonville USA   (04.12.12)
Michael Oren should retract nothing. Anywhere else in the world the Arab Knesset members would long ago have been charged with treason and thrown out - or worse. They have zero credibility,.
15. Tibi's pogrom: to #2
yosef yankelev, Phd ,   USA   (04.12.12)
Tibi and his ilk hate the Jewish nation with a passion worse than Nazi. One of the main reasons that I do not live in Israel now, is precisely these cowardly governments of ours - not muzzling jerks who are. professing sedition, while gleefully destroying lives of Israel's best: Gush Katif to the present day settlers. This is our worst enemy - "democratic" leadership, playing political house , just like children...
16. Tibi supports suicide bombings
Harrybaby ,   Canada   (04.12.12)
I state this with a clear mind and refuse to retract this statement.
17. Ynet, you do like your Tibi, don't you?
tom ,   tel aviv   (04.12.12)
18. Tibi still MK - a slap in every Jews face !
who cares   (04.12.12)
As a terrorist ,Tibi has to be deported !
19. To which #3 should have added
(04.12.12)
regarding Tibi's long reply, "Methinks the lady doth protest too much."
20. Ahmed Ti Bi or Ti zi
LION OF JUDAH   (04.12.12)
This b$£$%$d not only to kicked out of the Kenneset, but to be hanged from the tallest tree in Israel
21. TIBI
Avi   (04.12.12)
He is the manifestation of the problem facing us, the problem is within us, we cultivate and nurture the creature that eventually will bite us first chance it gets, it is in their nature, remember why Abraham kicked them out…
22. GO ahead and sue
Bad Assed Jew ,   United States   (04.12.12)
please do, your own words will incriminate you and prove Oren right, again Tibi should legally represent gaza and should be forced to live there.
23. Ya gotta love the irony, though!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.12.12)
On the one hand, Tibi claims protection as a member of the Knesset. Funnily enough, his Knesset membership wasn't all that important to him when he traveled to Libya, now, was it? Or when he gave a considerable amount of vocal support to the hapless voyage of the MAVI MARMARA (come to think of it, Zoabi should be held accountable for that, too. She actually was on board. Tibi was too much of a coward). So Tibi likes to pick and choose his spots. Unfortunately for him, it doesn't work that way, and he can take his aggrieved @$$ to Ramallah or Gaza City. We've had quite enough of him.
24. Lies were the first words Tibi uttered as a baby
adi ,   Sydney   (04.12.12)
Lies were the first words Tibi uttered as a baby
25. MK Tibi
joel ,   usa   (04.12.12)
he could be supporters of those arab muslim terrorists, the way he conduct himself, he should not be a member of Israel parliament!
26. Here's a link to the article

27. Supporting Suicide Attacks
Douglas Fireman ,   Chicago, USA   (04.12.12)
It's probably true.
28. How could Oren possibly lie when we view Tibi, as Oren does,
JBI   (04.13.12)
collaborating regularly with terror organizations and the leaders? If anyone is fooling itself is the state of Israel of allowing this man to serve at Knesset Israel while using his position to undermine the very existence of the state in which he lives and the institution where he serves.
29. To: JBI at No. 28
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.13.12)
Tibi, Zoabi and the other disloyal Arabs in the Knesset have been strutting their stuff far too long. Biting the very hand that feeds them, and then screaming "discrimination" whenever called to account. I agree with you, and many of the posters here. It is time to bid these traitors good-bye. They have no place in the Knesset.

Do you know what their yearly salary is?I bet quite a few elderly folk would benefit with that amount.I mean Jewish elderly of course.
