1. Defacing cemetries
(11.17.13)
If we are sure these are Jews and not Arabs, then it is a nasty act by fools. I believe the target is of no interest other than to Muslems who want to cause a wave of sympathy and protest
2. Utterly Disgraceful.
David Clarke ,   Liverpool, England   (11.17.13)
These attacks are appalling, the people who perpetrate these vile racist attacks are a disgrace to the State of Israel and the Jewish People, the people who perpetrate them are sick, hateful individuals, just like the individuals on Ynet who glorify and Justify their actions, they are consumed by the same nationalistic racist bigotry that inspired Kristallnacht.
3. About time this mental illenss knows as "religion" is banned
Miri   (11.17.13)
And those affected by it are given the psychilogical help they so desperatly need
4. Worse than this by far
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (11.17.13)
was the beheading and hacking to death of an off duty Uk soldier, unarmed, unprotected and, of course, a muslim cold blooded, ( maybe not even cold as the man was just murdered in the street) murderer. Defacing graves isn't good however, no one was injured, no one was murdered. Perhaps to end this the muslims should move back to the arab nation they came from?? NEVER FORGET THE FOGLE FAMILY. BUILD MORE JEWISH HOMES !!!!
5. #2 Disgaceful ?
deavman ,   Acco, Israel   (11.17.13)
I am curious, did you express your digust, did you feel horror, did you utterly condemn the terrorist act when the young Palestinian repeatedly stabbed the sleeping soldier, while in his bus ride going home. Before you keep aquating silly acts of vandalism to KristalNacht events, I suggest to you to look inward and try to understand why you feel so appaled by graffiti on peices of stone while stating that it is the same thing as Germans terrorizing and murdering Jews.
6. vandalism of tombs
naim ,   miami fl   (11.17.13)
My family has been christian for centuries in Lebanon; and i consider myself a friend of the jewish state, but acts like this only give a bad name to judaism and create more problems; desecrating cemeteries is a sin against The Holy One and has nothing to do with judaism but with the Nazis.
7. #5 But it IS the same
(11.17.13)
8. #2 I would believe you
(11.17.13)
...if you hadn't supported the Arab terrorist who murdered the Jew Eden Atias. If you are more horrified at some grafitti then a murder, no one cares what you have to say. By the way, what can you say about the UK MRF death squads that eliminated "inconvenient" Irish civilians? Is that a disgrace? Does it make the British sick and hateful individuals? Or is murdering people just because they are Irish somehow not racist bigotry?

And the rampant anti-Semitism and virulent anti-Israel activities in the United Kingdom -- many of them sanctioned by the U.K. government -- why aren't you out and about protesting against those? For that matter, why aren't you decrying the constant acts of violence perpetrated by Arabs against Israeli Jews? Why aren't you condemning the defacing by Arabs of Jewish houses of worship? Nor do you raise your voice in protest against the desecration of Jewish graves -- in Israel as well as in Europe (with ever-increasing frequency in the latter, I might add). You're a fraud and a phony, David. You are trying to hide your hatred of Jews and of that most concrete of symbols of the Jewish people -- the State of Israel -- behind a thin veneer of self-righteous outrage at acts that may or may not be committed by Jews (Arabs in Israel can write Hebrew, and history has demonstrated that they are not averse to vandalizing their own houses of worship and cemeteries in the hopes that the blame will be placed on Jews) fool no one. Do us all a favor and swan off down the road.

He cannot help it; he's a Scowse. They do not speak properly and they aren't particularly bright.

You denounce David because he merely criticized attacks on Arab graves without mentioning attacks on Jewish sites. And thereby you condemn yourself, too, since you only condemn attacks on Jewish sites and you have never condemned attacks on Arab sites. On the contrary, you have rushed to excuse such attacks. So, according to your very own standards you are worse than him. But logic is no more one of your strong points than humanity is.
12. To: No. 11
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.17.13)
Au contraire. I am simply waiting for proof positive and definitive that Jews are behind the acts of vandalism. Thus far, there have been accusations, even arrests, but no indictments -- because the evidence does not sustain arrest. Then again, remember Mr. Clarke's outrage when a handful of Arab-owned vehicles were torched? Of course, he was conveniently silent when it was proven that the Arab owners torched their own clunkers in order to cheat -- heavy emphasis on the word CHEAT -- the insurance companies. Similarly, the burning of a mosque was proven to be an act of arson perpetrated by Arabs. They've been known to desecrate their own cemeteries, too. I guess people who are capable of selling their children to be suicide bombers -- that's well-documented, too -- are pretty much capable of anything. Wouldn't you agree?
13. Compare the "writings on the walls"
exUK ,   Tel Aviv   (11.17.13)
Just as with a handwritten letter,the spraypainted slogans should be compared .They will all have been photographed,and evidence kept.I may not have the best memory,but they all seem to be very similar.Put them side by side and you may discover that most were all done by the same hand? Can the spraypaint cans be identified?.Are they 'commonly found' in settlements,or Arab Villages? There must be ways to narrow down the possible perpetrators.

You mean traced back to a Meretz den in Tel Aviv?
15. #5 Yes, disgraceful and you should agree.
On the Balcony   (11.18.13)
#2 did not equate price tag actions with the events of Kristalnacht. He stated that price tag actions are motivated by the same "nationalistic racist bigotry." as Kristalnache. And I think you will agree that this is true given that the victims /targets of price tag attacks are attacked SOLELY because they are Arab.

What is a Meretz den please?(from #13)
