Ori ,   Israel   (05.11.05)
The vast majority of wars were started by our enemies. Our army's mame is Israel Defence Force, not Israel Offence Force.
6. To E. S - Ignorant or Anti-Semitic?
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (05.11.05)
You obviously watch too much Arab TV! Today Israel mourns over 20,000 of its citizens murdered by the Arabs for one reason and one reason only: to destroy the Jewish People and the State of Israel and thus continue the work of Hitler and the Nazis. Your point about Israel starting most the the wars, well, I would suggest you take a course in history. In 1948 David Ben Gurion pleaded with the Arab world to accept Israel and live in Peace with the Jewish State. He asked the Arabs not to leave Israel but to stay and help build a new democractic country. Some stayed and are full citizens of this country, have full civil rights and liberties and work in the private and public sectors at all levels. Those that left took up arms and continued butchering Israeli men, women and children of all creeds and carried out terror attacks in many parts of the world. I would also remind you that the Arabs attacked Israel in the Yom Kippur War, on the most holy day in the Jewish calendar. If Israel had done something similar I can just hear the screeming condemnation from the rest of the world. War is a terrible thing and causes dreadful suffering for all but lets be quite clear on one point - the suffering of the Palestinians is totally self inflicted by their belligerency and murderous hatred of Israel, its citizens and the Jewish people. I would suggest you check your facts before apportioning blame.

Dear David .... First of all stop this story of anti-Semitism, which you use against anybody who does not agree with you. This is undemocratic and don't forget that we are Semites too. About the wars of Israel...you have to know that there are no Arabs who want to kill Jewish people...Jewish people were living everywhere in the Arab world as Arab citizens and had nothing to do with the relegion. We never had never anything against the Jews as a religion. But when it comes to the point of stealing lands and killing innocent people, the one who do this automaticaly is our enemy, without looking at his religion .... Saddam Hussein, when he invaded Kuwait, we were all against him too whenever he is Moslem (by the way I am not Moslem) .... the problem is inside you ... you hate every thing which is not Jewish ... look at the Jewish people how they live in EU. .... separated from everybody .... like they are coming from another planet .... or like robots programmed. Try once in your life to face the truth that you are living in a land which is not yours .... and try to love everything around you, not only what's Jewish .... and by the way again I am not anti-Semitic and I am not ignorant .... I am just a human being with feelings and I love everything around me but I hate violence and I hate that somebody takes what does not belong to him .... Forgive me for beeing a bit hard but I say what I think and what I feel ... and my best regards to all of you .... and by the way again ... part of my family is Jewish and they live in Israel
8. To AWNI, of palestine,
Boaz ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (05.11.05)
Your words are most welcomed, peace be upon you. And may peace and prosperity be the property and share of all humanity, world over.
9. ISRAEL & DEMOCRACY
Libyan Guy ,   Italy   (05.11.05)
Pro-Israeli behavior is not something new, actually its not a choice, as if differently expressed then you are anti Semitic, but what is anti Semitic ?! being anti Jewish ?! I never saw a country grant citizenship based on religious factors ?! so the Arabic who has been living in this country since more then 900 years has no right, meanwhile a so called JEW has everything and more the authority to do whatever he wants under the democratic flag of Israel ?! really I never understood Jews and what has been going in their brains and maybe thinking that they are god’s beloved people made them subject of hate since more then 4500 years !!! ask you self and then come and sing your song of fake democracy based of racism and religious conflicts with the rest of humanity.
10. To Libyan
(05.11.05)
You never saw a country give citizenship based on religion? You must be blind, most arab countries have a lot of rules about that. Saudi Arabia requires that all of it's citizens be Muslim. Most arab countries have clauses to stop Jews from becoming citizens. Also in Israel, their are plenty of people who are not Jewish who have Israeli citizensship.
11. RE:#3 you are so very wrong
Robert Goldman ,   cooper city Florida   (05.11.05)
Another person that slept through history classes to only listen to lies while awake! Stop lying to yourself and the world,
12. peace
Sami ,   Jordan   (05.11.05)
I believe mourning will continue for ever unless peace is accepted by everyone, I suggest one secular democratic trilingual country, with the return of all refugees, this is the only solution, otherwise wars would never stop in this reigon!

tash ,   israel   (05.11.05)

14. Israel the aggressor
MIKE ,   USA   (05.11.05)
the Jews immigrated to ISRAEL- and were goiven a deluxe army courtesy of the USA_ the ISraelis TOOK the land of the Palestinians/or people living there.Pre-1948 only 15 percent jews lived in that area. This was the beginning of the conflict- Plus- Jews have rights were the Palestininasn are denied them- like owning land- under the cluase of one has to jin the army to own land in ISrael- yet one has to be a JEW. Israel is NOT A DEMOCRACY.

mike ,   usa   (05.11.05)
Because the Palestininasn cry just as HARD. when their children are blown away- or their homes BULLDOZED- or their sons tortured-by the IDF.

Why is it so many arabs are willing to forgo a palestinian state if they can get a "bi-national" state? The only reason is because it destroys Israel in the process. It really shows what this is all about. And before anyone plays "the refugee" game. Lets not forget an equal number of sepharadic refugees were created by the arab countries. And they have yet to recieve any compensation.

"you hate every thing which is not Jewish ... look at the Jewish people how they live in EU. .... separated from everybody .... like they are coming from another planet .... or like robots programmed." And this has nothing to do with anti-semitism? Considering that most Jews are fairly assimilated in Europe? "Try once in your life to face the truth that you are living in a land which is not yours ...." Besides the fact that Jews bought the land? "and try to love everything around you, not only what's Jewish" Ofcourse this has nothing to do anti-semitism. It's just a conspiracy. "and by the way again ... part of my family is Jewish and they live in Israel" Whew thats relief, you know it's not like anyone has made up stuff on the internet before.

"when you buy land you don't have the right to rule the people around " No but you do have the right to remove squatters. "and once you have the courage go somewhere in EU and without saying that you are Jweish ask the people about theit opinon about the Jwes and about Israel ... and if you have again courage tell to me after" Considering that I am going to the EU very soon I will. But honestly I don't care about their opinion, europe has always turned its back on the Jews, lets not forget what happened 60 years ago to Jews who were fully assimilated. Yess teh truth is hurting vrey mcuh.

May the Lord Our God be with the nation this day and wipe the tears of the wives, sons, daughters of Israel. All my love to you Israel and happy Yom Ats' Maoot. I hope this day will keep coming back for many, many years to come.

(05.11.05)
"don't forget that you are in this land which you call it Israel because of EU ..... they put you their by force and now you say this about them" Actually no, the EU drove the Jews out of the EU by force. Then did everything to keep Jews out of this land, and are continuing with that policy today. "who does not agree with you is directly your enemy and antisemistic .... very civilised ..... no way with you" You... are... an... anti-semite... because... of these... statements... ""you hate every thing which is not Jewish ... look at the Jewish people how they live in EU. .... separated from everybody .... like they are coming from another planet .... or like robots programmed." " "and try to love everything around you, not only what's Jewish" You might... aswell... go... out... and say... it's a... conspiracy.

28. TO 27
(05.11.05)
"you don't know what you want ." I don't know a steak would be good right about now. "the Arab world didn't throw any Jweish out of it's country" LOL, now your just being silly. Go to google, type forgotten exodus. Or I will just show you http://info.jpost.com/C003/Supplements/Refugees/12-13.html "go and ask the Jewish arabs how they were living in Egypt and in Marroco ... in Lebanon and in Syria ... and even in Palistin ... they were like any other citizin ... go in egypt and ask till now where Haret El Yahood ... if you know what it means ... every body will show it to you ...." I have talked to Mizrachi's and Sepharadim. And they are always the most right wing, they remember the mis-treatment of being a dhimmi. They remember the pogroms, they remember how directly after the 48' war they were thrown out of their houses to make room for the palestinians. They remember how all their property was taken from them under "zionists laws". Oh they remember and know better than you or me. "the Jewish Temple in middle of the city still there .... we are nice people and we love everybody ...." Currently their are only two Jewish temples I know of that weren't destroyed in the pogroms. One is in Egypt and one in Tunsia. The one in Egypt is because of the peace treaty. The Tunsian is because it's good tourists site. If it hadn't been for that the Tunsian government would have destroyed it long ago. "read the book of Hokmaa Sahyon to know what's and who started the conspiracy ...." Okay *wink* *wink* "you are fighting against the fairness and the justice and trying turn on every thing to your favor ... " Funny I am fighting for fairness and justice, I don't need anything to be turned to my favor. "one day the history will say the truth ... " Only if justice prevails "hope i live to see this day ... " Good for you "and the justice has to come soon or later Eu said sorry for what's happend 60 years ago ... " Yes thats why it's trying to put history behind it and disconnect itself from the acts. It trying everything to deny it, and thats why anti-semitic attacks are at all time high's. "but you don't want to say any sorry for what you did till now and you still doing it" I don't need to apologize for someone attacking me.
29. MY DEEPEST GRATITUDE TO ISRAEL & THE JEWISH PEOPLE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (05.12.05)
This Christian wants to thank you with all my heart. I am for ever in your debt. Because of you Jews we have the Bible and the knowledge of the One great G-d of the universe. We have the laws G-d gave to Moses - laws that protect. I am so grateful! Thank you, Israel for your morality and goodness. You have never caused terrible suffering by attempting to conquer other countries. You have always kept within the Biblical borders G-d gave to Jews (Israel now much smaller than G-d gave). You have never ever tried to violently force your religion upon anyone - you have remained true to G-d! Jesus Christ practiced Judaism and was an observant Jew who taught in the synagogues and in the Temple on the Temple Mount. Jerusalem is mentioned over 800 times in the Bible. Jesus always taught from the Hebrew Bible. In the gospels, Jesus was asked, "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?" Jesus answered from the Hebrew Bible, Deuteronomy 6: "Hear O Israel! The L-rd is our G-d, the L-rd is One! You shall love the L-rd your G-d with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might." (it is the very essence of Judaism). Matthew 22: "This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend the whole law and the Prophets." This absolute allegiance to G-d and not man is unacceptable to many. It is the number one reason Jews have been put to death for thousands of years.
