1. So unfair, so unfair. When will there be an arab PM?
Jeremiah ,   Israel   (04.27.06)
Keep up the appeasement and you liberal/secular Jews will either be living in the Mediterranean or paying the jizyah. Israel should limit citizenship to Jews only. Kahane was right!
2. equality for all citizens
Moussa Suwwan ,   Paris/France   (04.27.06)
In a democratic state equality among citizens should prevail. There must be no discrimination against any citizen. Palestinians, who are Israeli citizens, must benfit from the same services and other social, economic and studying opportunities. It is shameful and illigal to practice discrimination against one's own citizens.
3. They are moving anyway
Arie   (04.27.06)
Given the proclamations of the Arab leadership, the so-called Israeli Arabs will be moving home soon anyway so why bother changing. Their leaders, like Tibi, are so enamoured of hamass and the PA government and has spoken so openly about arabs being underarab control that it is inevitable that the Arab Triangle will be exchanged in return for the settlement bloc of the West Bank. So rather than complaining about life in the beautiful State we call home, pack your bags and prepare for "life in paradise" under a hamass leadership. There you can enjoy murder, honour killings, poverty, anarchy, unemployment and misery. But you keep telling us that's what you want. So...be careful what you wished for.you will soon have it! Besides, hamass is running out of virgins so perhaps those that will soon move are prepared to donate a few!
4. Fifth column!
Jason Asman ,   Boston   (04.27.06)
Instead of finding ways to bring them (arabs) into the Israeli societies, devise ways to remove them from the land of Israel. There is no Israeli-arab, oxymoron.
5. Blind on oned eye
George ,   Orlando,Florida   (04.27.06)
How many Jews - citizens of Arab and/or countries - have the same rights and benefits as the Arab/Muslim majority ? Moussa, we are living in a cruel time and your "political correctness" is onesided.
6. to 2
J smith   (04.27.06)
wow, nice speak!!!!!!!! Go to tell this in Iran and other muslim country
7. Why Not Have More Subversion, Instead of Less?
Adina kutnicki ,   US   (04.27.06)
Really now ?What Israel needs is more Arab reps in the gov't to join the ranks of the subversive Islamist MK's from within. Those who opine over this lack of representation would be advised to better shoot themselves in the foot first.
8. answer to 6
Moussa Suwwan ,   Paris/France   (04.27.06)
You know Mr.J Smith we live in Palestine and israel, the second is a democratic state, the first will be as soon as the ocupation came to an end. So we don't care a damn neither to Iran nor to muslim countries...you were beside the point in giving such an exemple...shalom...
9. To 8
J. Smith   (04.28.06)
Why you telling us than you live in France? France is Palestine yet?????? Like Sharon tell: "Israel was not to create with an aim of safeguarding the democracy but to save it the Jewish people and to preserve the Jewish character of state ad vitam aeternam" You realy think than Palestine will be a democratic state where non-mulsim and muslim will have the same right? I would like to see this... (NO sarcastic remark) Realy I would... Shalom
10. I'd care if not for this fact:
Marc   (04.28.06)
THE ARABS BOYCOTT THE GOVERNMENT!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not news! There aren't arabs in the government because they don't to have anything to do with the government! They don't vote in the government, they are not loyal to the government, they don't accept the government's decisions, they don't even want the government to exist! Some don't even acknoledge it!!!!! HOW CAN YOU PARTICIPATE IN SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN"T RECOGNIZE, AND WANT TO DESTROY ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!?!?! And to #2, the palestinians are not Israeli citizens. And in advance, no they are not.
