This is from the same Shakira who on MTV said she would rather talk to a pig than to an Israeli? When an Israeli caller phoned in?

i wonder what hizbullah fundamentalist would think of shakira's oral fixation tour!!!!!!

Hey Martin, why don't you come live in Lebanon and see what it's really like? We are a multi-ethnic, multi-religious, multi-cultural country.

Thank you

Oh come on Muhammad, the only reason you said that is because she a Lebanese babe! Don't be so biased. You know that many of us Israelis want peace with Lebanon and you cannot deny that this a fact.

Let's get Shakira and Madonna to give a Mid-East concert, and maybe Depeche Mode will join them too. Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull seems to be the only intelligent performer to make a real statement until now.

The false accusers are the Arabs-Lebs. Which is why we're having this problem. She actually demonstrates class and intellect by refraining from blaming anyone. She's rightly grieving over the end result "on both sides". Nevertheless, this situation is unavoidable given the terrorist acts and agressions of Sy-ran / Hez-Hams. So quit hating on Shakira. God bless her sensitivity and class.

To those that keep mentioning what Huzb Allah would think of Shakira: Shakira was in Lebanon pretty recently. I suggest at some point you go to Lebanon and see the night life since it is much wilder and more open than any nightlife in the US that goes to sleep at 10 pm or even Europe...

.......

I have to agree with Shakira. WAR IS NEVER A JUSTIFICATION!!!!!! Killing innocent and/or guilty people is murder regardless of the cause. Where I am from, murder results in an eternity of damnation. Shakira's statement is satisfactory regardless of her social status or how [persuasive her niche is].

killing is not murder. murder is murder. killing in self-defense is not murder. shelling hezbollah positions in southern lebanon? not murder. bombing beirut? murder.

i quote the word "Israel has not had one day of peace since her return in 1949" The return!!?? u mean the year they invaded a peacful country and killed it's ppl ,destroyed their homes...and kicked the rest of them out!! am sorry.....and then those ppl are called TERRORISTS.......how ironic! ... ..what would u do if that happend to u!!

well what did the jews expect when they planted their behinds in the middle peace? love and peace? it amazes me that they chose to live amongst the people that hate them most. if israel "just wants peace" then why are they starting all the wars? there is no israel it is only palestine and jews should go back to where they came from.

the problem is everybody speaks without even knowing the truth....evrybody believe what "they" show you on tv...they call someone a terrorist...and u all start calling them terrorists! without even knowing! you really want to know who are the terrorists...here is their history! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHA2NLzrcYE watch it judge

Go on girl! Speak the truth.

Some of the people who have posted here have accused Shakira of referring to jews as pigs during an MTV show. While I'll leave it up to others to debate Shakira's message of peace, the accusation of anti-semitism has already been proven to be a myth. There is no evidence to suggest that Shakira compared Jews to pigs. If you don't believe me, check out the statement issued by the Anti-Defamation League http://www.adl.org/rumors/shakira.asp. It goes to show how easily people believe in rumors without checking the facts.

Martin, whilst I agree that Hizbullah wouldn't allow Shakira to do what she does so well (perform), you need to be aware that: Lebanon is not entirely a "radical Islamic community". FURTHEMORE you refer to "the free and democtratic society thats she lives in today. " You may be interested to know that Shakira lives in COLOMBIA - not exactlya free and democratic society, even if hte USA is!

shakira is royalty in lebanon and the egypt. they are upsest with her! the muslims and christians, you dont know what your talking about, and a quarter of her relatives are muslim anyway.

u ppl dont know who the victim is here its lebanon! I know. I got evacuated. Newsflash..... Does any1 no y hezbollah kidnapped soldiers and fired rockets??? its cause israel has 1000s of lebanese hostageges and is protecting the country. Hezbollah killed 150 Israelis about only a third were soldiers while isreal barley killed any gurrilas. they hit a friggin building filled wit women and children on purpose. instead of supporting israels terror tactics, support peace.

88 is right

Shakira is pure lebanese christian and a native all israeli supporters are being lied to and blinded. I was in lebanon during the conflict

and what do you know? nothing. she is as lebanese as any other lebanese, see the thing that makes us lebanese more unique than any other culture is that we keep our culture and are pride nomatter where we are. she knows what she is sayin. and you dont.

go get an education.

shakira is half lebanese, and yes shes christian, so am i, half the population of lebanon is, there are many arab christians, i suggest you go get an education.

u ppl r seriously out of ur minds, hezbolah has nothing to do with shakira, she was just giving her comment on the war that happend, and stop talking about lebanon in a bad way because u know nothing about my country, let me tell u i hate hezbollah, i am sunnii and i just want peace and i dont like seeing my brothers and sisters lying down dead with their heads open, and for the guys talking about muslims... not all the muslims are terrorists, alot of muslims are very well educated and they have very good familys... just like me, i am a very happy muslims living in lebanon, i am proud of who i am, i dont have any problem with israel, i wished there was peace so israelis would come here and we go there... for shakira u ROCK!! keep it coming baby

Shakira, thanks for speaking your mind and not worrying about what people might say.

Not that I really care about what all you guys talk but for those who think Shakira would rather talk to a pig than a Jew, just listen to her song How do you do... If I am not wrong, it is Hebrew in that song... Forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who have trespassed against us ... Someh Zonoobe Allah ... ... S'lach lanu ... Give us this day our daily bread ... Mechilah ....

So saying she wants peace for both sides means she is an airhead ... Interesting! Says a lot about the people commentating.

Obviously shakira was raised in an environment where the people around her disliked jews. If i was her agent or whatever i would cancel her career!
