1. Seriously?? They have too much time on their hands.
(02.16.13)
2. Let them get stuffed !
Roland Seener ,   London England   (02.16.13)
3. Israeli response to Europe
Syd Chaden ,   Palermo Calif USA   (02.16.13)
Israel should respond to Europe that Israel is treating Palestinian prisoners infinitely better than the Jew were treated in the German concentration camps, and most of Europe couldn't wait to turn their Jews over. Europe should just quietly study the Quran, and practice shouting "Allah Akbar", because population forecasts indicate that Europe will have Muslim majorities within 20 years.
4. History forgotten:IRA ,Bobby Sands hunger strike
Roland Seener ,   London England   (02.16.13)
5. EU's Ashton has so many worries
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (02.16.13)
they cannot decide what is more worrisome, the horsemeat scandal, the much denied iranian nuclear weapons program, the north korean nuclear bomb test, the ninty thousand slaughtered in syria, the chemical & biological weapons in syria, or four convicted terrorists refusing to eat.
6. Catherine
Cornell ,   London   (02.16.13)
Get your act together. Stop sticking with terrorists. If you are sane you should work to declare Hizballah a terror organization after Burgaz in Bulgaria! You deserve to be sacked for your erratic conduct.
7. Ashton, when will you convert to Islam
Joe ,   T.A.   (02.16.13)
It's about time.
8. 5
zionist forever   (02.16.13)
Please remember her title is Baroness Ashton. As she is not nobility by birth she has not inherited any vast family estates to worry about so she has to focus her worries elsewhere.
9. Fine. Let EU House Them
emanon ,   USA   (02.16.13)
10. Serious suggest the EU look to it's own
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (02.16.13)
Our prisoners are treated better than any prisoner in the EU. That is an outright fact. We exceed the Geneva Convention and every other convention on our treatment - something the Eurotrash can't claim
11. To: Lady Ashton
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.16.13)
I assure you that Israel will treat security prisoners on hunger strike in its prisons with the exact same care that the U.K. did with respect to Bobby Sands. Clean your own house first, madam, before you worry about ours.
12. Catherine
Sue ,   Manchester   (02.16.13)
Maybe she should call on Israel to charge them with a crime first. At least 178 of them are administrative detainees, where they can be held without trial for an indefinite period.
13. Ashton the Worry-Wart....for muslims
ltrail ,   United States   (02.16.13)
Where were Catherine Ashton's concerns, for Gilad Shalit, and other Israelis held captive in Egypt? Israel released 1,027 muslim prisoners for Gilad Shalit. Of those 1027, were muslims that murdered 569 Israeli citizens.
14. EU to' blame for this useless woman
Anna M Sedda ,   Rome-italy   (02.16.13)
EU is to' be' blamed for this useless woman that works for terrorist with our money.... We have asked many times to sack this parassite calle d Ash-ton,a woman in ashes...
15. Ashton
The Bald Scotsman ,   Tampa,USA   (02.16.13)
Ashton and her ilk. Just another reason I gave up my British citizenship. Am Yisrael Chai
16. ashton, 48 and jordan
Hy   (02.16.13)
of course england has yet lingering resentment of israelis booting england out of 'palestine' in 48. Subsquently, the demographic arab/moslem immigration into england has now rendered it blackmailed into appeasment so it rails against israel at every opportunity to curry favour. Ashton, the human rights filth of the UN and their advisors like chinkin and pillay, all the same, legal liars of the first order like goldstone who essentially bought one side's narrative wihtout rigourous crosseamination and then produced one sided reports or o pinions. Ahston, blair all the same. The arab and israels will arrive at an understanding and that is about it. The coming wars will see great fatalities as nasrollah boasts. So, arabs sitting on judea and samaria should save their skins and move out Now.
17. Deport every single one to Britain
steve from raleigh   (02.16.13)
Then the UK can release them to roam around free over there.
18. Ashton being stupid or Antisemtic or bath AGAIN!
Dee Bee ,   Israel   (02.16.13)
They are on a HUNGER STRIKE and they are TERRORISTS! Yes the same kind that blew up the trains in London and the same kind who are killing British and American soldiers in Afghanistan! There is no shortage of food they just won't eat because they know stupid people like you will always feel sorry for them even while they are cutting Jewish babies throats and maybe yours!
19. I R A
Sherlock Holmes ,   London England   (02.16.13)
Britain has been through the same international criticism in dealing with Irish Republican Army terrorists a generation back. I suspect that most prisoners in Israel are no worse off than most pensioners who are also faced with the recession. This chap is a terrorist, released in a deal, who returns to terrorism -- and he's complaining !
20. What exactly prompted her concern
Alfredo ,   Raanana   (02.17.13)
Why is she not concerned with the horrible pedophilia problem in Ireland ... and elsewhe?!
21. #10 You don't allow family visits.
(02.17.13)
22. 17
zionist forever   (02.17.13)
I AGREE WITH YOU 100% Everybody likes to be a champion of morality until you ask them to actually do something then the morality disappears.
23. Bogus Lie-Loses All Credibility
Grace ,   USA   (02.17.13)
"Samer al-Issawi has been on hunger strike the longest, for 208 days," A hunger strike for over SIX MONTHS? Give it a rest. Until full transparency of existing circumstances are revealed all other arguments are mute
24. The Baroness
Daddio ,   Philly, USA   (02.17.13)
More garbage from Trashton.
25. ashton
(02.17.13)
what did you do, say or demand qwhen gilad shalit was held FOR 5 YEARS BY HAMAS IN GAZA. you were silent! idiot.
26. EU calls for better conditions for Palestinians prisoners
George Weiss ,   Teaneck, USA   (02.17.13)
Ashton, nobody is listening to you any more. You need to worry more about Europe than about a few prisoners in the Near East.
27. Seriously?
Aharon ,   Holon, Israel   (02.17.13)
Does anyone seriously believe this morons have been starving themselves for 200+ days? If you do, I have bridge to sell you.
28. ashton
Mairi ,   glasgow   (02.17.13)
I niether wish the moronic ashton or her palestinian mates in Scotland....
29. To Baronness Ashton
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (02.17.13)
Did you read something about the seven wounded Syrian who are now treated in a Israeli hospital ? They needed , and received , help . Those four hunger strikers do it to themselve , we can't help people with suicidal ideas .
30. It's almost embarrassing
Devorah   (02.17.13)
to watch this mentally unstable sow consistently make a fool of herself.
