Jordan Is ,   Eastern Palestine   (03.29.14)
focus on Israel. A.I. bought out by oil money Haters, fakers,corrupters, instigators, liars. Thats what this is. o
11. The Right To Protest
GS ,   Germany   (03.29.14)
The right to protest does not include the right to run riot, to close roads, to throw stones at passing vehicles... Again, it has to made clear to Israeli Arabs that most of their Israeliness is based on their loyalty that they owe to their country and it laws. If they don't want these laws no one is preventing them from leaving.
12. Islam with Murder Stopped Jewish Escape to Tel aviv 1936
Zechariah   (03.29.14)
Although a Peaceful Protest is the Arab Right the Jews in TelAviv Jerusalem Haifa and the Negev ought have a Genocide Memorial Day for the Jews refused escape from nazi occupied Europe into the Areas Allotted to the Jewish State in the 1937 Partition Plan.
13. Prior restraint,...?
Gideon Reader   (03.29.14)
A private body of busybodies known for siding with one particular prty in a long running dispute seeks to hamper the side it does NOT favor from acting in it's own defense against holtilities and violent agressive behavior. Clearly the conccept of prior restraint is a seriously flawed one, not only in civilized law but in the arena of common sense. The impact of gross stupidity IF followed by Israel would be the act of failure by the legally and duly constituted government to protect and defend the citizens of the nation; a requirement for which it solely exists. Israel's reply to Amnesty Int'l should be a suggestion that it, as an organization and it's full leadership, staff and it's supporters in general, to engage in the deep, personal physical storage of compacted silica.
14. #11 ...2hrs later: I should mention...
GS ,   Germany   (03.30.14)
This was written in 'Yediot Aharonot. Editorial. March 22, 1997'.
15. Jews dispossessed all over Middleast
Tarbouche ,   Aswan   (03.30.14)
Where was Amnesty International then Christians being disposessed all over the Middleast. Where is Amnesty International Now Amnesty International = Anti-Semites Sans Frontiere
16. Why amnesy international does not speak about Siria police??
Anna M Sedda ,   Rome-Italy   (03.29.14)
Since when amnesy international can tell IDF what to do??? Why Amnesy International is not talking about Siria butchering of people??? Why does not amnesy international tell Siria what Human right s means...this is all propaganda....
17. The only solution
(03.30.14)
The only solution is to use Obama-style tactics from Libya. Find a group of Arabs who want will violently attack the pro-PLO demonstrators. When the pro-PLO demonstrators try to defend themselves, arrest and if necessary, shoot them.
18. #13 not private
(03.30.14)
They are not a private body. Why do you think Russia and Egypt kicked them out? They are bought and paid for US State Department agents.
19. Amnesty International
shrinkDave ,   Miami, USA   (03.30.14)
said anything about those 12,000 innocent Syrian children murdered by their own?
20. right to freedom of peaceful assembly?
Elan ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (03.30.14)
When Israel Releases Palestinian murderers from jails, than they have a peaceful assembly handing out candy and such! Throwing rocks is peaceful assembly? Dream on! I hope there's a shortage of rubber in Israel!
21. Attention! All Israelis should put down their weapons
Rhonda ,   Chicago, USA   (03.30.14)
Why doesn't AI come out and say what it really means: anyone in the Israeli police, the Border Patrol and the IDF should just put down their weapons and stand there peacefully while the protesters throw pieces of concrete and Molotov cocktails at them. Just because these peaceful protesters take out your eyes and blind you, split open your skulls or kill you is no good reason for you to defend yourselves and prevent total anarchy in the streets or at the security fences. That's pretty much the AI attitude. Permit lawlessness in the streets and destruction of security fences. NOT! Why don't you (AI) go talk to Assad.
22. Earth Day
Rick41241 ,   USA   (03.30.14)
So A.I. Really does not want Israel to respond to any Pali riots. That means that the Palis can riot, destroy, burn, maybe even kill, but Israel should just sit tight and do nothing. Didn't we hear that before?
23. Dear #18
Gideon Reader   (03.30.14)
Horse Hockey. The State Dept could NEVER do anything competently. I know many state dept "Agents" and most are complete dolts who could get lost in a corner Makolet, seeking Venezualean toilet paper. with a GPS device. They (Amnesia Int'l) are a NGO, which statnds for "Not a Good Outfit."
24. Amnesty warns Israel
Dominggus ,   Holland   (03.30.14)
Amnesty: SHUT UP!
25. 13 well said
CJK   (03.30.14)
amnesty is a private organisation of private individuals whose members in the territories are arab muslims. these people hate israel and their reports are mostly biased and prejudicial.
26. Amnesty - A Palestinian mouthpiece for propaganda
Doug ,   Wales   (03.30.14)
Why don't Amnesty just advise the Palestinian Authority to use their own security forces to fulfill their own requirements under the Oslo Accords, by preventing Palestinian violence and preventing the Palestinian demonstrators from confronting the Israeli forces? After all, the West agreed to instruct the Palestinian security forces in such methods but, despite having the largest security forces per capita on the planet, they are always conspicuous by their absence when such incidents arise. And groups such as Amnesty use their platform as a front to protect Palestinians who use violence against Israelis, and act as a mouthpiece for Palestinian propaganda.
