31. kadim gives $$$ to the Hamas
Moshe ,   Beit Shemesh   (02.09.06)
israel is a terror supporting state. the moron Olmert give $$$ to Hamas because it is "their money." if we are so STUPID as to do this, we have no right to complain to other countries. (giving $$$ to Hamas is considered "moderate" in our country). Kadimia to suicide !!!!
32. Russian foreign policy
Crystal-thinker ,   Moscow, Russia   (02.09.06)
For last 60 years Russia’s foreign policy was governed by a simple principle: an enemy of my enemy is my friend. In their idiotic shortsighted long-term “strategic” thinking the US (and Israel for that matter) is the enemy of Russia and they will do everything to undermine the US position in the world. By inviting Hamas to Russia Putin showed his finger to President Bush. There are 25 million Muslims who are the second class citizens and hate Russian people. Sooner or later these people will rise and will unite with Muslim extremists in Europe and the Middle East. But, unfortunately, a lot blood will be spelled before the Russian Government realizes who their real enemies.
33. Putins´ folly.
Colin ,   Soain   (02.09.06)
Israel will not allow Putin to pressure her. Therefore Putins´ use of Hamas for his own political international prestige is ultimately irrelevant.
34. What do the two blue lines represent on the Israel flag?

Marcel ,   Florida   (02.09.06)
When I see just one Israeli leader stand up to U.S. pressure and say NO!!!!! just one time ,one time then I will once again find the respect I once had for Israel. Until then ,a weak and servile Israel under cowardly leaders ALWAYS bows to sucidal demands from the U.S. and has no spine to stand up against the trampling of their sovereignty by a nefarious Bush. I would be angry too if my leaders were reduced to puppets of the U.S. who have betrayed their citizens and rewarded the islamic terrorists . Israel's leaders have sold their soul's for the false peace Road Map which they religiously obey. The truth is sometimes hard to face tal, and your anger solves nothing.

Marcel ,   Florida   (02.09.06)
my point is that Israel's servile dependence on the U.S. has become a bonafide curse .It dosen't matter democrat or Republican ,the same agenda AGAINST Israel moves forward. Bush changed nothing for the better after Clintion related to Israel ,only making things worse ,MUCH WORSE. The addiction to failed political leaders and their lies should have awakened you after Sharon promised the voters not to do the Mitzna plan for Gaza and turned out to be more leftist than Mitzna. The same goes for Bush ,he's a COMPLETE fraud ,he's a leftist globalist eastern establishment elitest in cowboy boots MASQUERADING as a Christian Conservative. The first thing he did was betray Israel and you Jews are still licking his boots. Kerry and Bush are joined at the hip ,being part of the same globalsit agenda which endangers Israel. WAKE UP !!!

37. What to say...
Michael Steiner ,   EU   (02.09.06)
Russia has always been an enemy of Israel (as well as Jews) and that's not changed. Today it's the main obstacle to exerting meaningful internationla pressure on Ahmadinejad the Monkey, and now this. I wonder though if Putin considers the Chechen FREEDOM FIGHTERS terrorists. Anyone wants to hazard a guess on this one?
38. I propose
(02.09.06)
for Israel to start funding and training Chechen freedom fighters.
39. To 34
(02.09.06)
The two blue lines from from the talit, the jewish prayer shal. Originally it was actually planned to just have a flag with two blue lines as the flag, well technically the flag was originally planned to be to have seven stars. But then was changed to add in the 'jewishness'. Then after some kind of debate or something like that, the star of david was also added in.
40. Putin
A loyal American   (02.09.06)
Putin, a forner KGB operative, was described by President Bush as a man he could deal with and trust. Sound like the prattle that came out of Chaimberlain's mouth. In reality, Russia is a weaked version of the USSR. It is interested in power and influence and Putin is just like the sociopathic leaders of the USSR like Stalin, Khruschev, Brezhnev etc. All he sees in having Russia regain inflence in the Muslim World and this lying animal will do anything like furnished Iran with the means to build a nuclear bomb to arming and recognizing Hamas.
41. Russian Whoredom
Marya ,   Sacramento   (02.09.06)
Now, lets see.. If Russia doesn't recognize Hamas as a terrororist entity that what in the heck is wrong with selling your good friends weapons? Tanks, bombs, you name it. The old Russian whore isn't above selling weapons to a "friend," especially when they already have so much in common ie their love of Jews. Remember just who the Quartet is: Russia, US, EU and UN -- NONE OF WHICH HAVE BEEN A REAL FRIEND TO iSRAEL...
42. #32 in Moskva
Jerry ,   NYC, USA   (02.09.06)
You are 100% correct. The Islamists will nuke Russian cities at their first opportunity, and Russia's support of Syria, Iran, Hamas and other terrorist entities will eventually blow up in its face. p.s. Moscow is not a safe place to be, long-term.
43. Marcel
Philip ,   Surfside, FL, USA   (02.09.06)
Let me disagree with you once again. Clinton had 2 lovers during his terms, a Jewish (sadly for us) mistress and a palestinian terrorist. No international leader came to the White House more than arafat (may he burn in hell) during clinton terms. I agree with you that Israel's dependance on the US is not good but it has nothing to do with who is in charge in the US but rather who is in charge in Israel. As far as the US, Israel (no matter what you think) is better off with Bush than it would have been with Kerry who would have had the same approach as the europeans concerning Israel. Just look who Bush has sent to the UN as our ambassador :-) Do you think that with Kerry it would have been the same kind of guy? It is too easy to say that they are all the same garbage. It is not true.
44. In a couple of months the US and EU will do the same
Ilan ,   Ariel   (02.09.06)
When the PLO was given this "honor" they were no better than Hamas is today (and the PLO never had to change it's positions to become accepted). This is the Road Map and is Kadima's map to an "Israeli future".
45. Here comes the new era of a cold war !
Neal ,   Rhode Island USA   (02.09.06)
Putin is going to take the opposite position as the US in the middle east. Will he supply arms to the palestinians next ?
46. Putin: Write To Putin
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (02.09.06)
But the Chechens are terror groups .... we agreed to that with him, but he cannot agree with us, something wrong here .

47. NUCLEAR FACILITY FOR THE PA
david ,   geneva   (02.09.06)
putin might want to build nuclear facility in gaza?
48. Philip and others.
Beth ,   Kfar Saba   (02.09.06)
Bottom line. Bush is the President NOW. The here and now. Bush has been President at one of the worst times in all of history for Israel. Our children, husbands and wives, uncles and aunts, friends and granparents were slaughtered because they were Jews. Are lives were turned upside down. The economy suffered greatly and in turn so did our children. The ones who did not get blown to bits that is. So please let's not compare the idiots who were once President to the idiot who is now President. Understand?
49. Putin-Putout
JB ,   Kfar Saba - Israel   (02.09.06)
Every time I see his pronunciations and actions I reinforce my feelings- He is not the sort of man to be trusted.

Josh ,   Tel Aviv   (02.09.06)
For strictly humanitarian purposes of course. (oh, I must have something in my eye. It won't stop winking. Now my tongue is caught in my cheek.)
51. Support the Chechens!!!
(02.09.06)
They, unlike the Palestinians are a real nation and have no state. Sell them weapons, invite them over here and do everything to piss Russia off because they are a bunch of antisemites.
52. like i expected
(02.09.06)
6 monthes ago i wrote here that Hamas will be the new government of the Palistinians and the whole world will axeopt them and what's happend in the past with the PLO and Yasser Arafat (God bless him) will happen again with Hamas , here is it they became the official government of the Palistinians ... Russia calling them political group not terrorists and the rest will come and soon they will sit face to face with with Israelian govenment and they will deal together about the next steps , anyone knows a bit that politic has no prenciples , i am sure that the Americans allready started dealing with Hamas under the table and maybe england and France too ... that's life or that's politic ... save your shouting for something else ... this matter is over ... let's see together what will happen .
53. questions of the day.
Tal ,   Israel   (02.09.06)
1/How is it possible that Putin who is part of the US led quartet can side with Hamas? 2/Will Putin be reprimanded by the boss of the quartet? Only those non partisans with open eyes will know the answers.
54. may I tell you Mike, #8...
keren ,   sao paulo   (02.09.06)
Amongst such a disgrace,at least your comment made me laugh.Yes...Putin must be liking his own stomach by now!
55. #39 Thanks
Curious   (02.09.06)
Ok your explanation was a little confusing.. but thanks, so the lines represent the prayer shal? I was wondering because a friend of mine told me one line represented the Nile, and the other the Euphrates, and the star in the middle symbolizing the entire region that lies in between those two rivers. I found it hard to believe so i thought i would ask another Jew on this board. But i'm still confused, how do the lines represent the prayer shal??
56. Hamas accepts invitation
simon ,   sweden   (02.09.06)
to our hamas friends: don't fotget the explosive belt's to show putin what's exactly "not being a terror organization", and when you blow yourselves up in the "kremlin" remember to ask putin if he want's to join you guy's and experience some 72 virgins... ...after all it's not terror.
57. number 5. You are right and wrong.
Monica ,   Palm Desert CA   (02.09.06)
Chechen rebels are terrorists to Putin. (for show anyway) Same for the Beslan school massacre. However, it is quite obvious the world wide war on terror is not applicable to Israel by the double standards and unrelenting back stabs handed to Israel. It is obvious by the whitewashing of who is a terrorist and who is not by Putin, Bush, the UN and EU. Every single word and every single action by them toward Israel speaks for this as a hard and true fact. The crux of the matter is more about appeasement of our enemies then it is about truth. In fact IF they saw the slaughter of Jews as part of the war on terror the Palestinians would not be given one thin dime nor undeserved legitimization, not to mention having the leader of the Palestinians invited to the center of world wide governments and portrayed as a man of peace when in fact he IS NOT A MAN OF PEACE. The whole thing is a scam to appease the enormous appetites of the Arab/Muslim world. Israel is the bait on the hook .But Little do those idiots know that nothing will satiate those enormous appetites and before long they along with us will be gobbled up. For those of you doubting my terrorist thesis. Why is Fatah and Al-Asqsa brigades not listed as a terrorist organization? Just because in English they do not call for the destruction of Israel they have had part and parcel in the planning and slaughtering of hundreds of innocent Israelis. They harbor terrorists by doing nothing to disarm them. Therefore they aid in terror. They incite against Israel from their mosques, school room, text books, newspapers and everywhere on the street. So they are not terrorists right? But if we called their leaders the late 'not great' Arafat and now Abbas the man who has openly stated he would do nothing to disarm terror for what they are (where) guess what? No promise of a Palestinian state. No money by the buckets full. No road-map to peace because then it would be obvious there truly was no partner in peace. And lastly and with great joy, no quartet of liars. The Palestinian cause would be de-legitimized and so would those who hailed appeased them all these years. We call it, "the cat is out of the bag." ; -)) So when everyone wonders why Jews were not saved in the years leading up to the Shoah and during the Shoah right up to the last possible moment, look again. The very same thing is happening now.

" was wondering because a friend of mine told me one line represented the Nile, and the other the Euphrates, and the star in the middle symbolizing the entire region that lies in between those two rivers. " Part of the Arab brainwashing to continue for them to hate Jews. This story is as old as Israel and every bit as much of a lie now as it was then. Sadly this lie has spread like the wildest of fires. How pathetic the arab world is to contiue with this crap. How I wish that were the worst of it. Go to memri.org and memritv.org and take a peek around.
59. to Tal,#25
keren ,   sao paulo   (02.09.06)
You are very right,Tal.It is very easy for us to talk and talk,but the ones that are really holding the rocket are you,Israeli people. But I want you to know that I love Israel as well and ,as soon as possible,I will do my Aliב and be together with my people.

Hope this clarifies: I have included a link to a picture of the prayer shawl that the Jewish people wear when they pray. http://alri.org/ltc/immigration/Groups/jewish/prayershawl.jpg As you can see, there are blue stripes. The reason they are blue, is because when G-d originally commanded the Jewish people to make for themselves tzit-tzit (fringes) they were to be dyed with the blue from a specific snail that we no longer have. After looking at the prayer shawl, it is clear that the flag of Israel represents the stripes you see. This is also what I learned in religious school growing up, so don't worry, we're not taught anything like what your friends are teaching you! Good luck in your quests for knowledge....
