roland ,   israel jerusalem   (12.31.13)
go home why do stay in israel if it is so bad nobody asked you to came here. you ran away from the country that you where born in it says much about you too so again go home
32. Unfortunately...
Yonatan ,   Petach Tikva   (12.31.13)
Unfortunately the Simon Wiesenthal center does not distinguish between antisemitism and freedom of speech. Whereas Khamenei is indeed an antisemite with direct slurs against Jews, Waters is very critical of Israel policies. These are two different things. Blurring them is very dangerous. Many people in the West severely criticism their country (look at sixties in US). We as Israelis should get used to this if we want to consider ourselves a Western country.
33. # 23
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (12.31.13)
With all the hope and change we are seeing from Obama he probably wishes he was in Israel. His question is still valid.
34. To the' Non Jewish immigrant' ,Haifa
Michael Cohen ,   London U.K.   (12.31.13)
I agree with you that criticising Israel is NOT antisemitism. However the people listed in the article don't just Criticise Israel.They use anti Semitic slurs and when this is pointed out to them they respond by complaining that we are accusing them of criticising Israel. If they were genuinely interested in criticising Israel rather than denigrating Jews they wouldn't use ant semitic slurs
35. How about this:
Gady ,   Mexico City   (12.31.13)
"I am not anti-muslim, I am not against the muslim religion, but what I really hate is those horrible arabs, with those ugly kaffias and mustaches and swords..."
36. Where's My Honourable Mention In This List?
World Citizen ,   the world   (12.31.13)
I mean non one here at Ynetnews railed against the apartheid conditions of the West Bank more than I did. That must count as something? I'm feeling left out I tell you!! The people of Israel have their collective heads in the sand. Telling the truth is not anti-semitic. Most intelligent people in the world have run out of patience with the unacceptable behaviour of your government in regards to the treatment of the Palestinian people. The BDS movement is growing. Increasingly the people of Israel will feel its effects. Just like South Africa the nation of Israel will be brought into the light. Do the right thing and end the growing isolation.
37. #25 ARMY AND RELIGION
URBAN RABBI ,   SAFED OBVIOUS HOUSE   (12.31.13)
Please get your facts straight : The Torah commands " every man from the age of tewnty to the army ." The Torah commands every fit male to serve ,so the ultra-orthodox have no excuse .
38. #25 THE TORAH
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED OBVIOUS HOUSE   (12.31.13)
In the Torah portion BAMIDBAR ( Numbers 1:1 verse 3 ,) " From twenty years and upwards all who are fit go to the army ." There is absolutley no conflict between the jewish religion and military service ,the Torah mandates military service for all.
39. # 36 Oh the irony.....
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (12.31.13)
A person with their head up their rear pointing a finger at people whose heads they think are in the sand. What a funny guy you are!
40. Anti civilization: The first place goes to Israel....
Michael Dally ,   Lebanese Christian   (12.31.13)
War criminals, human right abusers all first place spots go to Israel and Israeli leaders. Layoff Iran...Its a case of Jealousy!
41. What about the goog Rev Sharpton
Koose E Mack ,   NY USA   (12.31.13)
This piece of human refuse deserves a place on the list.
42. Anti Intelligence: First place goes to #40
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (12.31.13)
Hmmm lets see, Israel allows Arabs in the government. Israel allows women to drive, vote and be treated like people instead of property. Israel doesn't have honor killings and allows freedom of religion. Israel provides water, electricity and medical treatment to their enemies. Isn't it wonderful Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Iran aren't that evil? Oh the nerve of us Jewish people! Layoff Israel Michael.....it's a case of stupidity.
43. To anti-semites this price=nobelprice
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (01.01.14)
Why do we honour them?
44. #40 If you think Israel is "Anti civilization",
A ,   Belgium   (12.31.13)
wait until your Christian posterior anatomy is painfully altered by Hezbollah moslems. You'll be praying for care in an Israeli hospital, and hopefully, you won't get it.
45. #40 Iran persecutes Christians
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.01.14)
You're not concerned? Over 130,000 dead Syrians and you're not concerned. Israel is one of the only countries in the ME where Christians can practice their faith while Israel protects Christian holy sites. The Israelis must protect themselves from hostile neighbors. Ring a bell? And why would one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world be jealous of 7th century human rights abuser extraordinaire Iran?
46. The List is for internal consumption
Tomek ,   Poland   (01.01.14)
so it really should not be published in English because it makes both the authors and the intended audience look troubled. You seek wholehearted acceptance but do not get it. This then needs to be rationalized in a manner you can embrace. Hence the List. Seldom is the one who screams the loudest right.
47. #36:Yeah, yeah, you are a really Naughty Citizen!Happy now?
tom ,   tel aviv   (01.01.14)
Now: go back to Hades, they're wondering where you've gone to....
48. 36
k ,   World Citizen   (01.01.14)
you will be killed long before Israel is "isolated" I can assure you there are alot of Jews who are just looking for some real revenge on alot of people
49. #6, Dear Sam
Chutia ,   New Delhi, India   (01.02.14)
I am telling you the same thing. Don't worry about what the others are doing or saying :) Get on with your lives
50. #48: You guys are really beginning to sound like
Chutia ,   New Delhi, India   (01.02.14)
your neighbours. Is it the neighbourhood effect?
51. List of anti-semites
Harold ,   USA   (01.02.14)
S.W Center are afraid to list George W. Bush who wants to convert Jews to Christians.
52. #7
Harold ,   USA   (01.02.14)
A Jewish engineer from the Soviet Union told me that 33 percent of the Jews immigrated from the Soviet Union are not Jewish.
53. #52
Chaim ,   Haifa, Israel   (01.03.14)
So what, and how does he know that? I work with a lot of Russian immigrants and serve with some Russians in the army. Only 2 are not Jewish and they are converting to Judaism. Since both are married to Israelis, their kids are Jews anyway
54. #51 G. Bush great supporter of Israel
Benji ,   US   (01.03.14)
And his approval ratings are higher than Obama's.
