31. WHEN DID THE JEWS GET WISER
Pavel ,   Moscow   (10.27.06)
yes of course there is a difference between anti-israel & anti-semitism,& many people can't get the difference & the guilty in this is the goverment of israel by trying to give itself the right to speak in the name of all jews in the world & to give the image of israel as the country of all jews in the world .i have much friends of jews in moscow that don't share this opinion & they consider Russia is their country & never will leave to other countries even not to israel
32. to pavel jewish from russia forgot what is to be jew
dovdevan ,   ashdod   (10.28.06)
most of the people who came from russia to israel are not jews (70%) , the rest don't even know the meaning of the word "jewish" because they didn't come to israel by sionist motivation !! so if the jews from russia don't share that israel is the country of all jews this is because they don't feel like jews !!! they will share it when they will be attacked as a jew one day then they will remember that israel is the nation of all the jews where every jew can be protected !!

This racism is not a prerogative of the humans. He is a prerogative of the fools and of the arrogant persons.These arrogant persons must be isolated and possibly punished with the they coin.
34. Everone are racists, the question is how much...
DK ,   Israel   (10.28.06)
Everyone hate somone, other nation.. even if they dont show that... The real question is how much. As much as i try to "not hate" Arabs, i'm still watching with both of my eyes on the arabs in the busses or places such as malls etc. because i'm afraid... Its not a secret. South africa isnt that different with its thoughts about Israel, especially jews then Israeli naighbours. Its just they dont show it the exact way. http://www.globaljewishcommunity.com/forums/
35. it's a boycott
Arja ,   Canada   (10.29.06)
A boycott of South African products helped to bring an end to apartheid. There are some who think boycotting Israel will bring an end to Israeli apartheid of Palestinians. AT www.counterpunch.org/tilley08052006.html Professor Virginia Tilley who is working in South Africa starts by stating: "It is finally time. After years of internal arguments, confusion, and dithering, the time has come for a full-fledged international boycott of Israel. Good cause for a boycott has, of course, been in place for decades, as a raft of initiatives already attests. But Israel's war crimes are now so shocking, its extremism so clear, the suffering so great, the UN so helpless, and the international community's need to contain Israel's behavior so urgent and compelling, that the time for global action has matured. A coordinated movement of divestment, sanctions, and boycotts against Israel must convene to contain not only Israel's aggressive acts and crimes against humanitarian law but also, as in South Africa, its founding racist logics that inspired and still drive the entire Palestinian problem. That second goal of the boycott campaign is indeed the primary one. Calls for a boycott have long cited specific crimes: Israel's continual attacks on Palestinian civilians; its casual disdain for the Palestinian civilian lives "accidentally" destroyed in its assassinations and bombings; its deliberate ruin of the Palestinians' economic and social conditions; its continuing annexation and dismemberment of Palestinian land; its torture of prisoners; its contempt for UN resolutions and international law; and especially, its refusal to allow Palestinian refugees to return to their homeland. But the boycott cannot target these practices alone. It must target their ideological source."
36. irony of all ironies
Harold ,   San Francisco   (10.31.06)
It's so deliciously ironic that the SABC tried to prevent the public from knowing about the investigation into itself. It's also a double irony that a black South African victim of apartheid is now a willing practitioner of apartheid himself!
