1. The matter of settling nomad communities is universal
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (07.15.13)
and Israel is not an exception. In Israel, however, sadly, those who seek its very demise attempt to harness this human predicament as a weapon. Thus, under the flag of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Arab citizens of Israel act lawlessly. Israel ought to deal with them accordingly....!!
2. typical arab hyperbole
CJK   (07.15.13)
let them martyr themselves if it makes them happy.
3. Well
John ,   Herzliya   (07.15.13)
I guess that they all should move to Syria, Egypt, Jordan, Libya ... and enjoy their lives instead of suffering in terrible terror state...Don't you think so?
4. To #2
(07.15.13)
Please don't wish for them to 'martyr' themselves on our soil. We have lost enough children in suicide bombings.
5. I'm Israeli-Arab, I do not think Israel is a "Terror State'
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (07.15.13)
ynet should refrain from generalizing, stereotyping and inciting against all arabs. if angry demonstrators called Israel a terror state, it does not mean whole population feel the same. The headline: 'Arabs say Israel 'terror state' is unfair and inciting against the whole arab population, ynet could have used: "Arab demonstrators say... "
6. So by all means LEAVE!
J ,   Israel   (07.15.13)
7. These Arabs are Delusional
Aharon   (07.15.13)
First, they complain about the Bedouin not having access to normal facilities and benefits. Then, they complain when the government tries to implement these things in these communities. If the Bedouin want to be a nomadic people, they shouldn't expect to receive the same kind benefits as a normal citizen who has permanent residency in one town. These Arabs always complain that Israel is a terrorist state. If so, why don't they leave to a more friendly state. Certainly there are more Arab-friendly states in the area. Oh wait...
8. #5 Rami, thanks !

9. Time to deport them to some state they will not
Amiram ,   J-m   (07.15.13)
consider to be a terror state Fast! Now!
10. Jews having EQUAL national rights...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.15.13)
...in their native, ancestral and historical homeland of Israel is a "catastrophe"? The very existence of a Jewish people, a Jewish civilization living in their OWN country with 4000 years of Jewish history is "racist" and a "catastrophe"? So 200 states are allowed to exist out of which dozens of them are ethnic nation states that exist across Europe, Middle East, Africa and Asia, and are populated by hundreds of millions of people can exist, but Jews can't have a country of their own located in their historical homeland? It is the Arab insistence that Israel is an "Arab" country and that Jews are "foreign" in Israel and that 20 Arab nation states can exist on land that didn't and doesn't belong to Arabs but Jews can't even have 1 state of their own in their OWN land - it is this very insistence that is racist. Arabs are a fifth column that need to leave Israel at once. Arabs have no place in Israel - ever.
11. Neither the article itself,
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.15.13)
nor even one of the commenters here is prepared to see the other side of the arguement... The Bedouin do have a point of view and are fully entitled to it. Why is it not presented alongside of the proposition of this bill? That is racism in action.
12. 4, i should have been more precise
CJK   (07.15.13)
obviously, i do not want them to martyr themselves in israel. i just got frustrated. be well, shalom
13. Arabs against Prawer Bill.
Boaz ,   Big Lake, MN.   (07.15.13)
First of all, none of them own the Negev... 2nd of all, if there is a legitimate claim to property make sure that they keep up with the tax's... trust me when they start receiving the tax statements their tune just might change, unless they think that they are exempt from those also... I know that my tax's in Israel where quite high, and I am sure that there has not been any real adjustments lately...
14. 10, well said
CJK   (07.15.13)
friend.
15. #11 BS. People cannot behave like that ANYWHERE & get away
NudNik69   (07.15.13)
...with it. The content and tenor of the article is communicated quite well. There's no need for mamby-pamby 'analysis' attempting to evoke the semblance of justification for these people's behaviour.
16. Land swap Territory
Zechariah   (07.15.13)
These areas with the Green triangle and villages in the Galil ought be part of the land swap autonomous Palestinian areas linked by a Diplomatic Status to a Demilitirized Palestinian Autonomous state in Judae and Samaria on the West Bank of the Jordan River.They can vote for non Belligerant Political Parties all anti peace Political Groups need be illegal and members expelled .The Jews need security Troops on a massive scale on the Jordan Valley. To Protect the Holy Land...
17. Great Idea #13
Ilan ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (07.16.13)
Introduce them to the wonderful world of Arnona (property tax). equal suffrage for all. Let them keep the land and those who cannot afford to pay Arnona shall be evicted like the rest of us!
18. Here is my version of NAKBA
Alex ,   Minneapolis, MN USA   (07.16.13)
1.)Spread of Arabs beyond the sands of Arabian peninsula in infesting half of the globe now that's NAKBA. 2.) Not kicking every one of you out of Jewish state of Israel that's NAKBA 3.) Letting millions of muslims come to US and EU that is NAKBA 4.) Not oblidirating all of you off the face of this earth after 9/11 is NAKBA
19. Arabs against Prawer bill:Israel terror state # 6 #18

20. #19
Alex ,   Minneapolis, MN USA   (07.16.13)
I do live in the real world and I do know who my enemies are. You are the confused one on the other hand. So do us all a favor and STFU
21. To: No. 5
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.16.13)
So how come Arabs such as yourself never show up at demonstrations to counter the vilification of Israel? Hmm? You want to have your cake and eat it, too. You know you enjoy a far better existence than the average Arab in any Arab country. Yet you remain silent except for pious bleatings on the Internet. Ever occur to you that that might not be enough? If you are afraid to defend the State of Israel in public, then you do not deserve to live here. You just want the best of the best without actually having to stand up for it in public. That makes you quite a shameful hypocrite. You need to make a choice, and you need to stand up for that choice. Otherwise -- your intentions are well telegraphed. And they do not say anything positive about you. The Internet is not enough. You need to vote with your feet, habibi. If you cannot -- then there is no place in Israel for you. We are not interested in nurturing a fifth column who waits to see which way the wind blows. In the unlikely event that Arabs should ever prevail in Israel, I have no doubt where you will stamp your loyalties. Stand up for what you believe (assuming your mealy-mouthed self believes in anything) or get out and find someplace to live more conducive to your typical Arab hypocrisy. We've had quite enough of the likes of you, too. If you are not with us, you are against us. There IS no middle ground. So, speak your loyalties where it can be put on international display. Otherwise, get out of the Jewish State.
22. To nr 19 Most Bedouins HAVEN'T lived for centuries...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.16.13)
...in Israel! Learn some history woman! "#6 J, and if we say to you. LEAVE you would reply, the land belongs to me!, " Why should he leave? He is a Jew living in a JEWISH country called Israel! Bedouins are foreigners, and so are the Arabs and so are you Elsie! If you don't like living in a Jewish country there are 200 states out there to choose from. Strange that you must enforce your Little multi-cultural experiment on us in OUR land when you can choose the remaining 200 countries. Bedouins have lived for centuries in Israel? Most of them have not. Most of them have arrived in Israel between the 1880s and the 1940s. Jews have lived for 2500 years in Mesopotamia and Iran, 2000 years in North Africa, Minor Asia, Greece and Southern Europe, 1500 years in Germany and France and 1000 years in Poland and Russia. Can we claim the lands too in the name of Jewish nationalism or is it only non Jews in the name of non Jewish nationalism who can claim Israel? "#18, you are one sick boy!! grow up and live in the real world." How do you know he is a boy? Or did you use it in a derogatory sense? What's wrong with his views? And what is the real world Elsie? And what is your world view little Elsie? What should the world look like according to you and why is that view fair, just and moral? What Alex from Minneapolis, MN USA stated is indeed correct: wherever Arabs and Moslems go, we have terrorism, anti-Semitism, religious fanaticism, hostility to the West and hostility to democracy and an excess of crimes. Just try and use your brain Elsie just for once and figure what exactly has the West gained from this Arab and Moslem invasion of Western lands. Last two questions: 1) Do you base nationalism on citizenship alone? Yes or no will do. 2) What makes you Think that the land "belongs" to the Bedouins? Explain what you mean by that. Are you talking about private property or are you talking about nationalism and national rights? Jews have held private property in almost every European and Mid Eastern country. Does it mean we Jews can claim Middle East and Europe?
