1. Haetzni's glass
Michael ,   Haifa   (10.07.06)
It matters not whether Haetzni's glass is half filled or half empty, its contents are invariably poisonous, even though this time he flavoured it with saccharine

Aaron Rabinovich ,   Canada   (10.08.06)
This article fit for a bible dream subject. I came from Russian diaspora to the land of Israel and back to the Canadian diaspora.Israel you are talking about Mr.Haetzni will stay in our imagination and only.
4. The anti-semites hate Haetzni
Ilan ,   Ariel   (10.08.06)
The emergence of a proud Jew living in his land and viewing it with devotion is anathema to the anti-semites of this world. They can never tolerate a proud Jew and they never will, but Haetzni has the satisfaction of working towards the Zionist and Jewish ideal in spite of their hatred.

6. PROPHECIES FULFILLED!!!
al mann ,   Jerusalem,Israel   (10.08.06)
It is good to read about how the prophecies of ancient times are being fulfilled. Yet, the question if the historical information affects the emotional inner individual remains. When prophets are studied does the learner internalize anything or does it remain a piece of information to be used for certain purposes. Is the Bible an external source of information or is it to be internalized with all its historical and religious significance? The Oral Law and the Written Law were both given on Sinai. They maintain the same legitimacy yet they both are not obeyed and followed as the legal constitution of the People of Israel. If one will use the prophets to justify a feeling or a movement should the rest be omitted?
7. "Diaspora"
Choni Davidowitz   (10.08.06)
Every news report or article written should substitute the word Diaspora with Exile. Constant repetition of this word (exile) will, P.G. make exilic Jews a little uncomfortable. After all exile is the ultimate punishment for our sins. Now that Eretz Yisrael is again under Jewish sovereignty the exile is over. No more exile! No more Diaspra
