1. so now the Negev is also a no touch zone for them?
(12.02.13)
how about the Palis stick to their "67 border" plan for now?
2. Arabs had big chances in 1937
Zechariah   (12.02.13)
The Arabs had big chances in 1937 to Save European Jewry from genocide by taking refugees into all Islamic lands.Too many admired Nazism And it's Genocide of the Jews .Because of the Shoah on principles of International justice Jewish security is Paramount.
3. So the Negev is occupied too?
Vlad   (12.02.13)
What's next, Tel Aviv? Screw you. I don't know who I hate more, the "Palestinian" "activists" or their leftist partners.
4. Palestinians DO NOT speak for the Bedouins....
EST ,   Miami USA   (12.02.13)
Actually, when they capture a Bedouin who serves in the IDF, they take extra time and effort in torturing them. All they want is to distort the truth about Israel...and re-write history even as they steal our lands! thieves and liars!!!!
5. Planting trees
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (12.02.13)
Planting trees in the Holy Land by Zionists is indeed a "green" army of occupation added to the vicious forces known as IDF. It is incumbent on anyone who truly may call himself or herself a Christian to join the boycott of any goods and services from this illegal apartheid state of occupation.
6. PMs David Lloyd George, Stephen Harper, both evangelicals.
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (12.02.13)
"Lloyd George played a critical role in Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour's famous Declaration in favour of "the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people"."
7. typical
(12.02.13)
now trees are a sign of the occupation. these jokers don't know when to stop.
8. there were 50 protesters
dano ,   Toronto Canada   (12.02.13)
I attended the dinner, which raised almost $6 million for the Hula sanctuary. There were maybe 50 protesters outside, the same bedraggled gaggle of professionals protesters...
9. Palis barking up the wrong tree...
Raoul ,   Herzliya. Israel   (12.02.13)
but for them any negative opportunity will do. In this case Negev. A substantial number of Beduin have received fine homes in Tarbin village. I have photos of them. Why do our media not publicize this?
10. "Palis"only happy if they can cut down
Barney ,   USA   (12.02.13)
Trees or hang Jews in them as they are much cheaper,than cranes. Peace is impossible transfer is the only option but the problem is nobody wants this rag tag group of people . Lazy uneducated violent hand out .it is a curse upon the land any land
11. we dont need haredi in the army
zionist forever   (12.02.13)
" JNF trees are soldiers in the zionist army of occupation " As we have an army made up of tree soldiers now lets leave the haredi alone because the IDF can't absorb both them and the trees. Maybe we could even parachute zionist tree soldiers into Iran and they can destroy the nuclear sites. It would be a good way to send a message to Obama not to meddle in Israeli security issues because if he does he better not turn his back on any trees next time he is playing golf.

zionist forever   (12.02.13)
JNF once ( wrongly ) donated thousands of trees as a goodwill gesture to the new town of Rawabi palestinians are building for their middle classes. When it was discovered these thousands of trees had been donated by the JNF they were all cut down. International charities bought the Gaza settlers greenhouses which they had been making alot of money from. First thing the arabs did when they got them was trash them. All the arabs know how to do well is destroy good things.
13. Israel plants trees and Arabs destroy
As always   (12.02.13)
Nothing new under the sun. Israel will continue to build and plant trees and the Arabs will continue to lie, murder and destroy.
14. 6 Steve B.: If the Balfour Declaration had been honored
Rivkah   (12.02.13)
the British Empire might still exist.
15. #5 "anyone who truly may call himself or herself
A ,   Belgium   (12.02.13)
a Christian". Interesting statement. Do YOU call yourself a Christian? I assume so. And you feel it's your "Christian duty" to insult the rest of the Christians who don't accept your racist, hateful tirades and see you only as the miserable, disturbed polakius ignoramius that you are?
16. Trees are political?
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (12.02.13)
I think I've heard it all now. Why are there any pals in Israel in the first place?A Jew behind every tree and rock LOL.
17. 'JNF's trees are soldiers in Zionist army of occupation'
A ,   Belgium   (12.02.13)
Too bad they can't learn to shoot or toss a grenade.
18. Benassi is an occupation settler
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (12.02.13)
Hey Steve - I thought you realized that your illegal occupation of Minnesota was immoral, and that you gave your house back to its proper native American owner and you moved back to Europe where you came from. Who cares what religion Harper is? What does it have to do with his support of Israel? You clearly have never listened to Harper speak on the subject, since religion has nothign to do with it but democracy and shared values does. But then again, you're a occupation settler squatting on native American land, and nobobdy cares what religion you are.
