1. Itamar is a courageous Jew.
Daisy ,   USA   (06.11.06)
Good for him. The crazy Commie self-hating Jews are the real enemies of Israel. They will end up destroying Israel.
2. Freedom of speech?
Daniel ,   Australia   (06.11.06)
I might not agree with Dana Olmert's views, however, what is wrong with stating your opinion. She obiviously has a very warped point of view (just like her father), but isnt this freedom of speech? What's the law in relation to this? In America or Australia, this would be laughed out of court.
3. Fascist Jews
ben ,   TLV   (06.11.06)
"...What is the reason for this discrimination? Why are left-wing activists allowed to do what right-wing activists are banned from doing...?" -because you are a dangerous FASCIST. 'nuff said.....
4. Olmerts must be arrested at once
Yariv ,   Tel Aviv   (06.11.06)
Since Olmerts sent their daughter with posters calling Halutz murderer his familly must be arrested at once.
5. Freedom of speach?
Antonio ,   Haifa   (06.11.06)
Is there such a thing anymore? Since when is it a crime to call someone a "murderer????" Outrageous.
6. Princess Dana Olmert

7. Itamar Ben-Gvir.tiyeh bari

8. Don't know where to start
Chaya ,   Bat Yam   (06.11.06)
Double standards; hypocricy of the left!! She - and all the others should be put on trial!! What happened to Olmert's Revisionist roots?? Or maybe they weren't that deep to begin with. Maybe he fell under the spell of his wife. It's for sure that his children did. It's good they were allowed to demonstrate so we can see what kind of idiots they are!! And TRAITORS!! I wouldn't be surprised if they haven't fallen under the influence of Israel Shamir. And now all retaliatory measures are being stopped until the investigation into the deaths is over??? What kind of stupid policy is that??? There have been 19 barrages from Gaza so far today!!
9. Ben-Gvir is absolutely right!
Ram ,   London   (06.11.06)
10. Mr Olmert
Ram ,   London   (06.11.06)
Is your daughter reflcting your family views? If she isn't than speak up!
11. Because ben
Caligula's Horse ,   Solomon's Stables   (06.11.06)
We are lawful country, and all of the citizens are subject to the same law, if rightists are jailed for inciting for calling goverment officials murderers so should leftists.
12. re number 3
Ari   (06.11.06)
Seems to me that you leftists are just a bunch of demagogues. Calling someone a "fascist" is a rather opinionated statement, and certainly not a case for discriminating against them Ben Gvir certainly does not identify with the ideologies of fascism - only Torah. If you don't like that then that's your (very big) problem, but there is absoloutely no reason why if what he did was wrong then it shouldn't be wrong now as well...
13. Dana Olmert, Pride of Israel
Daniel ,   North Tel Aviv   (06.11.06)
Dana Olmert's courageous stance is something to be highly admired and should be emulated by all peace-loving jews. Hama Kills innocent Israelis but the IDF also kills innocent Palestinians and this is a war crime. The difference is that the palestinians have no choice but the Israeli govertment has a choice to end the occupation. This is the left wing position and let nobody fools themselves, Israel can only have peace when the palestinians have their freedom; otherwise we are all`condemned to eternal war and suffering. Dana Olmert and her fellow protesters know this and they are acting to save Israel from this awful tragic future. They are the true patriots and as a jew, I would be proud to have a daughter like her who stands up for what she believes in.
14. I answer you Avi...:
keren ,   sao paulo   (06.11.06)
It is because Israel was taken over by a corrupt , dictatorial regime;one of the worst ,I think,in the human history.They are comparable to what is the lowest in human morals and behavior!
15. Sorry ,I made a mistake with the name-I meant
keren ,   sao paulo   (06.11.06)
Ben-Gvir.
16. How come she does not leave the country?
jason white ,   afula,israel   (06.11.06)
Let her leave the country like her two coward brothers.Leave and do not come back. What kind of spawn did omelet raise?
17. Daniel - distinctions please!
Michael ,   Jeru, Israel   (06.11.06)
Your equating of Hamas murdering of Jews with the IDF's mistaken killing of Palestinians for which they apologized, lacks all moral bearing. Hamas and the Palestns similarly have a choice - terror has only brought them a worse standard of living and increased pain to both sides. Michael www.kicisrael.blogspot.com

"The difference is that the palestinians have no choice but the Israeli govertment has a choice to end the occupation." THERE IS NOT ONE JEW LEFT IN GAZA!!!!! Why are leftist so blind and stupid?
19. re. #12 (avi)
ben ,   TLV   (06.11.06)
You say that Ben-Gvir does not identify with any fascist ideology - only TORAH.....well then it is a disgrace for the Torah and all Jews. Where in the Torah is a god-fearing jew taught to stone children on their way to school.....or where are they instructed to destroy the "fruit of the land" (as in the hundreds of olive trees torn down).....or the countless other acts of cowardly (and illegal) bullying, violence, theft and thuggery to which Ben-Gvir and his cronies adhere to daily...?? That for me is Fascism, not TORAH.
20. #2 # 5 "freedom of speech"
gabriela ben ari   (06.11.06)
since when one cannot voice an opinion? answer: since Itamar was arrested and heavily paid for SAME freedom of speech If He paid so should THEY. Itamar was trying to protect jews , something the gov isnt very good at btw
21. Freedom of Speech?
Yehu Ben Zohar ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (06.11.06)
There is always freedom of speech for those on the left, but look at Nadia Matar, being harassed and put on trial for "insulting a public servant". Let's see the courts be fair and harass and prosecute those who insulted Halutz. Ain't going to happen. There are a seperate set of rules in Israel for the left. They can call for the destruction of Israel, the death of Jews and nothing is said. Look at what was done to Moishe Feiglin, for blocking traffic, a tactic used by Peretz (who is now defense minister) numerous times, without and prosecution. Feiglin was prohibited from running for office because of his "criminal record", obviously the Left protects Peretz and persecutes those on the right for the most trivial of reasons.
22. Get back to the point
Piranha ,   Chicago, USA   (06.11.06)
Whatever the merits of either the left or the right wing, the issue here is that Itamar Ben-Gvir was arrested and convicted (and fined) for calling a government official a murderer, and I don't know a basis to distinguish what he did from what Dana Olmert did in calling Halutz a murderer. If there is no difference, then it simply is corruption (not wanting to go after the Prime Minister's daughter) that is keeping her from being prosecuted. Or, the laws should be revised to permit more open political criticism from both the right and the left.
23. HATING Jews. LOVING BARBARIC ENEMIES
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.11.06)
In the war against the Jews, the Prime Minister's daughter is a valuable asset to Israel's enemies. Islamist propaganda can inspire terrorists around the world: the Israeli Prime Minister's daughter protests with Israelis, who declare 'intifada shall prevail.' And the inspiration to massively increased terrorism: Olmert surrendering 95% of Judea and Samaria. In addition to cheering on the intifada, what other activities do these radical leftists and human rights groups participate in, in their support for the intifada of atrocities and mass murder of Jewish innocents? The IDF state the PA refuse to cooperate - refuse to give exact location and time of the explosion. What is the PA hiding? That they are the ones responsible for the attack? Truth is irrelevant to the PA. Muslim human bomb killers slaughtered such huge numbers of Jewish innocents, the IDF were forced to search for the terrorists in Jenin. 52 Islamists were killed by the IDF. The PA falsely reported to world media that the IDF had killed 1,500 PA Muslims. Jews are not safe in Muslim areas anywhere. The U.S. EU and UN make no attempt to stop Islamist continual hate incitement and non-stop terror attacks against Jews, victims of global jihad. Effigies of burning buses are features of Palestinian Authority school pageants and summer camps. Streets and soccer teams are named after suicide bombers. Arab Muslim children and adults train in terrorist training camps. Ambulances transport terrorists, weapons, and bombs. Stabbings, shootings, fire-bombings, stonings, drive-by shootings, bombs planted, grenade attacks, rocket and mortar attacks, lynchings, human bomb killer attacks. The U.S. EU and UN demand through the Road Map that Israel give half of her tiny land, the militarily strategic, Biblical heartland of Judea and Samaria, to PA/PLO/Hamas, PA Muslims, who are united in conquering all Israel for Islam. The ultimate goal is Islamic world rule. The raison d'etre of the genocidal PA society is the mass murder of Jewish innocents. Palestinian Authority society are taught murdering Jews is the highest goal in life and attains paradise: http://www.pmw.org.il/AFD.html

Tikvah ,   from Petach   (06.11.06)
I loved the NORTH in north tel aviv,( and its ethical lawyers firmsetc) LOL and would have taken it seriously if you had come from a more respectable place, like say, south tel aviv, bat yam, like Chaya from Bat Yam who writes amazingly . Moi, I live near Savyon ( and its ethical lawyer firms etc)..
25. Daniel , North Tel Aviv
(06.11.06)
yes, therefore we left all of Gaza so the Pal. can kill and bomb us you are indeed a clever child
26. Ben-Gvir
jhihad ,   Seattle, USA   (06.11.06)
I am sorry that I feel compelled to respond to your attack upon Ms. Olmert. Actually, I can understand your resentment but cannot condone it. You propose a "tit for tat" response from the authorities. Can we agree that the Israeli government has become enlightened between the time of your incarceration and the events surrounding Ms. Olmert's activities? If not, then shame on your sorry, pathetic, paranoid, shithole of a country!
27. Israel's EVIL extremist left exposed
Marcel ,   Florida   (06.11.06)
The arrogant godless left have different rules for those loyal to G-d and to His agenda. The extrtemist left snakes who bow to the pagan babel builders are blinded by their elitest arrogance birhted in hell. This filth who rule Israel have no shame for their blatant hypocrisy and their evil deeds will swallow them up soon. These extremist think nothing of arresting and attacking their fellow Jews who stand for a strong Israel. The traitors will follow thier ancestors Dathan and abriam down to the pit of hell as the earth swalow them up whole.
28. Dana Olmert Coddles Arab Terrorists. Papa Okay With It
Adina kutnicki ,   US   (06.11.06)
While Olmert defends his daughter's 'right' to her own opinion, clearly he doesn't defend any one from the right wing to have their own opinions. Right wingers get locked up, harassed and otherwise intimidated. Radical leftists are given a free pass. In such a two faced situation my advice to Gvir is to not only ignore the authorities, but to fight these injustices at each and every turn. The more noise you make in public, the less they will be able to shut you up. Olmert excuses the inexcusable. He excuses the coddling of his radical daughter and his wife too. He has NO problem with her marching with people who call for MORE INTIFADAS. If that is not incitement to Jewish murder I do not know what qualifies. I would never allow the regime to get away with this. Dana Olmert should be harassed day and night over this, as should her papa. The incitement to Jewish murder is NOT freedom of speech and Olmert knows this very well. This should scare each and every Jew in Israel and beyond.
29. Dana OLmert VS Nadia Matar. Who Should Really Be In Court?
Adina Kutnicki ,   US   (06.11.06)
By the way kiddies - Nadia Matar is going on trial this week for - now get this - "insulting a public official". Isn't that a hoot? A Jewish nationalist has to defend herself in court for trying to protect Israel. Yet the devil spawn of Olmert can call Halutz a murderer, and march with those calling for LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA, and papa says she is entitled to her own opinion. Brothers and sisters - Don't let her or her papa off the hook!
30. To all the fascists, It is the OCCUPATION, Stupid
Daniel ,   North Tel Aviv   (06.11.06)
To all those extreme right wing racists who believe that they have a god given right to occupy other people's land, humiliate them, Deny them most basics of rights and then expect thanks I say you are deluding yourselves and have brought great harm to the state of Israel, death and misery. The conflict is political and let us leave god (or Alla or whatever) out of it. The ONLY solution is to let our neighbours have their state along the 1967 borders; they have already proven that they love this land and deserve a piece of it. And just in case the extremists have not realised: Palestinians are going nowhere! freedom for Palestine Now! Daniel : A Jew who loves his people and his country (and a Grandson of a rabbi)
