"we're not as bad as the nazis. count yourselves lucky, because we wont go as far as murdering you like they would have." what does he want? a medal for not calling for extermination?

Do Israeli Jews understand that if they take the right to treat human beings like described in the article they loose the right to complain when their brothers and sisters are treated in equal ways.

The article was written by a Shas member, not Lieberman. Secondly, Lieberman has proven himself to be the most courageous and progressive politician Israel has: he doesn't bow down to the international philosophy of pressing Jews into the impossible scenario of having to choose between the lesser of two evils. Thank G-d for Lieberman; hes the backbone of Israels future. Period. If you don't like it; leave or go find someone else to slander and spread rachelis about.

What we do understand is that a large part of the world expects much from us, yet when we are in need, we get little or nothing. Where were all the ones and their families when the Jews were driven from country to country almost since time began. If this is the price of having a "higher" morality, I believe it may be time for us to act like the the majority.

"Listen up, dear and kind Sudanese people. In the United States, Martin Luther King's dream came true. Giuliani will tell you how he made it happen. Go forth and implement this in Sudan and Eritrea. We promise to help you, we'll even be delighted to help, as always." Shas journal said. To answer this, Martin Lurther wasn't in Africa when he have a dream but in America. Why not Israel for Martin Lurther Dream? Everyone in Israel like to learn how to make slogans over Sudanese. God bless more Israelis and tomorrow is an other after blessing.

The communication skills revealed in this letter are not very sophisticated and have no frame of reference. The minister needs to work on his ability to express himself in more coherent terms. As it is, the letter is very disconcerting in terms of humane values.

Because among the infltrators are also people persecuted by their governments, asking refugees not to ruin Shas' dreams and go away is a cynical manner to say we are killing you softly

Ruining your dream? Go back to your country and build your dream there, instead of parasiting someone else's conquests. And we do not need friends like yourselves. JUST LEAVE!

There are those who will scream at the Israeli / Jews "how can you do this when you needed help post WW11? The difference is that when the Jews migrated to all the countries they worked their asses off and if they did not have a job they did not go around robbing and raping the host country citizens. Israel is a country of six million. There are limitations to their social fabric.

Why don't we send all of them to Finland? It is much bigger than Israel -and they know exactly how to treat people like this. Problem solved.

bureaucrat can stop that with talk of what Israel can't do. It can, it must, it will deport illegal aliens and keep Israel a home for the Israelis, not the rest of the world who don't like where they live.

Believe me, life in a detention center here is one hundred times better than life in their home countries. In a detention center they will receive food, clothing and medical care - all which don't exist in Sudan and Eritrea. So this won't deter them from coming here. Another solution has to be found.

Do you understand that these people for whatever reason are entering Israel illegally? No country has a problem with Jews entering into their country illegally so this has nothing whatsoever to do with Jews right to complain about anything. Does your country allow just anyone to enter and live there just because the outsider likes your country better than their own? If not, what gives you the right to complain about how Israel handles this problem?

if these sudanese & africans would commit crimes inside Israel, then treat them as common criminals and hang them high, that they may know that Israel is a land of laws & order, again, hang them high!

They are an example of everything that's wrong with the political system. Coalition government is about pay offs and that very often means you have to give the wrong jobs to the wrong people to get their political support. Olmert gave the defense job to Peretz, a man whose idea of a preemptive strike was to get the Hhistadrut to go on strike before they even make any demands. Liberman is the Foreign Minister who doesn't meet with foreign diplomats because his own diplomatic skills are so lousy. Eli Yishai is Interior Minister but once again he is a lousy diplomat and sometimes allows religious ideals to come before whats smart like rejecting a gift of firetrucks from abroad because the people donating them where Christian evangelicals. Out of all the cabinet ministers in the current government Barak is probably the only one who has the right posting. He may not have been a shining example of what a Defense Minister should be like but he does at least understand about fighting wars from first hand experience. At least we are talking with foreign governments about taking the infiltrators off our hands and are planning to lock them up in detention centers rather than allowing them to roam the streets fufilling their dreams of a new life in Israel.

Once Jews were trying to enter in several countries often illegally. In the years 1932 - 1948. What if Israel one day collapses and millions decide to move. For internal (religious fanatics take power) or external (looses a major war) reasons? Those scenarios are more than likely.

... and that stranger takes advantage of the man and his family, does this man not have the right to ask the stranger to leave his home?

What a cult

nothing will be done and they will keep streaming into the country and the Jews will be bred out of existence.

Finally someone is saying opening what a lot of Israelis feel! We fought Hard. Hard for this tiny piece of land, yes it should Be Ours! The world is big. They can to many other countries. We don't need to save the world we have enough hardship already

"A society personifying a social time bomb of robbery, violence, sodomy as well as assimilation alongside the destruction of the institute of marriage and the proper family unit – such a society must be separate and distant, and the sooner the better." I never thought that shas was that bad.

We have no obligation to african Muslims. Go to Saudi. Stay out of our nation.

I do think that the Israeli Govt should help these people in any way logically feasible. I just wonder what are the future implications of admitting such a large number of Muslems, who are actually from countries which are openly hostile to Israel.

The Truth is the truth and because some of you have brainwashed yourself to think there is no Truth is too bad. Reality is Israel is a tiny country and we already have a problem. You want to add more. You want to be like Europe? No, they must go because there is not enough room. Maybe you'd like them to move next door and marry your sister?

Well, the illegals trying to enter Israel are not in the position of having to avoid gas chambers like the Jews were in the years 1932-1945 and after 1945 they were only trying to get onto land that was historically theirs and land the British promised them. Right now Israel is not dealing with what ifs but a current existing problem. Israel will never collapse. It will face hard times but God will protect them and Israel is not in the habit of losing wars no matter how great the odds against them.

Arnold, I'm against those economic immigrants but what do you expect them to do if they are allowed to stay in Israel but not work. Imagine yourself jobless, what would you do? I don't think you will be sitting home all day & night.

Tell you what. We'll ship them all off to Suomi, where they can mug your elderly, intimidate your citizens, sleep off their drunken stupors in your public parks and playgrounds and rape your daughters. Okay? Teach by example, why don't you?
