6. Arab violence wins yet again...and we expect them to stop?nd
(02.12.07)
7. No backbone Mayor?
Hillel Levin ,   Jerusalem   (02.12.07)
Say Mayor, I thought we were Am K'Shay Oref - a stiff back people. You are letting stone throwers and terror inciters dictate how you run our city. Get some backbone. Just say no to incitement and stone throwers. Stand up for Torah and that if we do not they will overrun us.
8. Same old song and dance
Concerned Israeli   (02.12.07)
The Arabs go wild and once again the Jews capitulate. I blame ourselves a lot more for giving in to brutish scare tactics instead of standing on principles of democracy which include NON-VIOLENT POLITICAL PROTEST. Let the Arabs protest all they want! Let them have solidarity marches and rallies till they achieve their goals! Once a democratic principle is broken though, we should draw the line. But that would take some form of courage and moral clarity.
9. Giving in?
Suzanne   (02.12.07)
10. Good move - pick the fights
rh ,   Ashdod Israel   (02.12.07)
No need to allow them to make this non issue an issue, just redo it when the timing is better and the tensions have eased. They want an excuse to attack us, let do it on our terms not theres
11. My Prayer
Roy Galut ,   Selah Washington USA   (02.12.07)
Is that G-d soon shows the nations Who realy has a right to the Mount... and that I believe is what is spelled out in Ezekiel 33 thru 48
12. Coward! And he is religious. What a shame.
j ,   jerusalem, israel   (02.12.07)
13. Israel Sins, then Complies.
Hani   (02.12.07)
Who gets last laugh ?
14. Hail Mohammed, King of the Jews
Dhimmi   (02.12.07)
15. Do we really deserve Jerusalem? I think not.
Yakov ,   Haifa   (02.12.07)
16. Pathetic
Russel ,   Tlv   (02.12.07)
First of all it was a ploy aimed at bringing Hamas and Fatah together to focus on their common enemy: us. 2nd it served as a distraction to Iran's nuclear weapons programme 3rd it shows that Israel no longer calls the shots as to what happens in its own country. Pu**ywhipped.
17. Bring back Kach
Zev ,   New York, USA   (02.12.07)
I am sick of these pathetic wimps.
18. I hope major read this...
Keren ,   SP-now in Israel   (02.12.07)
I am deceived,very deceived with you israeli politicians. If you dont remember that we Jews must be and act as the ROSH, but instead keep acting and being the zanav,the zanav we will be!
19. What a pathetic wimp
Antonio ,   Haifa   (02.12.07)
Mayor of Jerusalem? Has this man lost any sense of pride or decency?
20. Good! Let the Palestinians do
Marcell ,   Israel   (02.12.07)
the repairwork at their cost . . . .
21. Lupolianski to Muslims: We'll stay in our shtetl
Yacov ,   Ashkelon   (02.12.07)
Lupolianski has agreed to what Muslims and Xtians have demanded for centuries- that Jews accept dhimmi status and stay in our shtetls. Lupolianski's East European shtetl mentality has taken control and he has agreed for Jews to accept dhimmi status at our holiest site and in our homeland of Israel. It is understandable that after centuries of brainwashing, the shtetl mentality is rigid and fixed in Lupolianski's thinking. Unfortunately, he is forcing the rest of us back into the shtetl with him.
22. Cowards???
Khaled ,   Lebanon   (02.12.07)
Responding to the concerns of rioters is cowardice? Cowards are those who confront rioters with police forces and troops putting everyone in harms way in order to avoid having to convince those who oppose them. Cowards are those who hide behind ideology and convince themselves that fighting the enemy is easier than living with them.
23. Also stop Arab digging below Temple's Jewish quarter now
jw ,   ny   (02.12.07)
Not only have the Arabs built another mosque on the Temple Mount, destroyed archaeological treasures that date back to the Jewish Temple, they are also currently digging tunnels under the homes in the Jewish quarter, destroying the foundation & further setting claim to the whole Temple area to be Muslim. Yeah, give Jordan another minaret..the Jews aren't free in their own country ...a mere satrapy to Jordanian rule over the Temple Mount...Rebuild the Temple today & assert Israel's sovereignty.
24. OME MORE NAIL IN THR COFFIN
Steve   (02.12.07)
Lupolianski you shmuck, you effectively just surrendered Jerusalem! Do you expect any gratitude or reciprocation for your capitulation? All you will get are more threats of violence and endless demands for more concessions. Your caving in has set a precedent which all residents of Jerusalem will regret for years to come. In 25 years forth I will be telling my grandkids about a land called Israel which once graced the Middle East.
25. Wrong decision
enzo ,   london,uk   (02.12.07)
This is a very bad example of appeasement which will be followed by another one and then another one! The Arabs will come back for more...!
26. Mayor Lupolianski
Lynne   (02.12.07)
Thank you.. Israelis and Palestinians do not need more reasons than they already have to fight.. it would be a good idea if Muslim and Jewish communities and their leaders in Jerusalem discuss the reasons for those works and Israelis should assure Palestinians that this project will cause no damage to Al-Aqsa Mosque.. otherwise Israelis will keep on starting and stopping their work and Palestinians will keep on rioting which will lead to further clashes between both sides..
27. Forgot He Is Khareidi? Or Don't Know What That Means?
Paqid 16 Netzarim ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (02.12.07)
28. #22 Fm you who hides behind babies, women & propaganda

29. WELL DONE MR. MAYOR
(02.12.07)
WE NEED MORE WISE PEOPLE LIKE YOU , YOU SHOWED HOW STRONG YOU ARE NOT HOW WEAK BECAUSE IT'S HARDER TO STAND AGAINST THE FANATIC VOICES INSIDE ISRAEL THAN TO STAND AGAINST MOSLEMS ANGER .
30. to 25
(02.12.07)
don't put benzin on the fire from London and stay waching from there , if you respect their feeling and didn't try to hurt them the Arabs do nothing , the Jewish fondamentalists they knew that this will happen and they meant it to exeplose the situation again because they were worry that kind of peace agreament can be in the way , old dirty zionists games and i thank the strong Mayor who could understand this conespiracy .
