1. "Peace Nut" & Pharoah
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (02.21.07)
"And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them." What does "Peace Nut" want to do, DROWN ALL THE BABIES?
2. PIECE NOW AND YNET
Israeli Racist ,   Judea   (02.21.07)
Everytime this commie-foreign organization sneezes ynet reports on the size of the sneeze......uh Yet ynet did not report on the descretation of prayer books and headstones in Hevron........uh Nor has ynet reported on ark(mohammed) ascherman head of the rabbis for ishlamic rights(lol) uprooting of trees planted by Jewish schoolchildren on tu-bishvat in Hevron hills causing untold pain among small Jewish children.....uh Interesting!
3. GOOD! SETTLERS KEEP GOING
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (02.21.07)
Soon "Piece" now will be an extinct race And if the leftist haters wont let you build more homes for your increasing numbers, then settle in their livingrooms in Ramat Aviv. They wont even notice. They have the highest number of rooms per capita, these good for nothing
4. So we are Jews living in the land of Israel, yah so what?
j ,   jerusalem, israel   (02.21.07)
You can give is cute little propaganda labels like "settler" but the fact still remains we are Jews living in the land of Israel. Why don't you call residents of South Jerusalem Settlers? They are living in land captured in '67? Stop with the hypocrisy and political spin already. All Israeli's are "settlers" fool.
5. STOP CALLING THEM "SETTLERS" - THEY ARE RECLAIMERS
Andrew ,   Miami, FL USA   (02.21.07)
6. Judea and Samaria are part of Israel, not settlers, NATIVES
David ,   Boston, USA   (02.21.07)
Its good to see Jewish growth in Israeli citizens. Considering the British and Arabs kicked Jews out of our native Judea and Samaria in the 20s through 67 after centuries if not longer of living there with invader after invaders. The natives are home to stay. Good for Yesha. I do understand that unfortunately, there will be a division of Judea and Samaria between Israel and Jordan Palestine, but Jews MUST be in Israel for there to be any possible peace. No Jews in Judea and Samaria means no peace possible.
7. Foreign Agents
Sam WEinstein ,   USA   (02.21.07)
These people are traitors and foreign agents why give them mention. These people need to be arrested and tried for treason
8. Soon we will be 200,000
stephanie ,   Israel   (02.21.07)
Soon we will be 200,000 then 2,000,000. We are not illegals because we were given this land by Hashem
9. Nothing New; And G-d Willing, It Will Continue
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (02.21.07)
We have MANY kids- and MANY grow up to remain or found new communities. Also, MANY young families have been coming. It's a great environment for families. All the Arab violence in the world won't stop it either. Allah wills it.
10. Wonderful News!
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (02.21.07)
"Settlers' birth rate three times higher than other Israelis Peace Now report reveals number of settlements has not grown, but settlement themselves have, despite court orders."
11. USE OF WORDS YNET
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (02.21.07)
are very important. I know that for herzelists like yourself it is very hard to get your facts right. In hebrew we are called inheritors,because that is what we do ,we inherit the land. Now i understand that as a herzelist this is unacceptable,against your believes. But if you would dare to investigate a little more,then you would see that JUDEA and SHOMRON have been mentioned for the past 3000 years. So the word settler is incorrect. Knowing you guys, there is a fifty % change this will make it past your censorship. If you do, we can sit back and wait for the michael steiners ,to unload their poison.
12. Follow the money
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (02.21.07)
"Peace Nut" receives funds from the EU in order to promote a "GET RID OF THE JEWS" agenda. "Peace Nut" should be prosecuted as a subversive foreign organization.
13. Peace Now Would Stop Jews from Having Babies if they could
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (02.21.07)
14. silver lining thought
Michael ,   Haifa   (02.21.07)
the more of the bastards who move into the West Bank, the less of them we'll have on this side of the Green Line when we move the IDF back behind recognized borders
15. Ynet...
Ivri   (02.21.07)
Finds an opportunity to slam jews for commiting the Mitzva of PRU U RVU. ERETZ GDOLA LE AM GADOL.
16. Congratulations Jews on your Healthy Birth Rate!
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (02.21.07)
17. Michael from Haifa- WE are the IDF
Yesha Golanchik ,   Israel   (02.21.07)
My pluga has far more Yesha Jews than anything else, and the same goes with my friends in the paratroopers, Givati, and other combat soldiers. Half of my officers are also Yesha Jews (and almost all are religious). And don't forget the Nachal HaChariedi. You leftists are the past. We Jews are the Jewish future. Move over, Rover, and let the Jews take over.
18. I'm frustrated !
leon ,   Grand Rapids USA   (02.21.07)
I wanted to berate Ynet for publishing this story using PeaceNow's propagandistic rhetoric, and reminding this august publication that these are Jews living in their homeland : Judea and Samaria, not the "West Bank", whatever that is. However countless others beat me to it. Grrrrr.
19. BARUCH HASHEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ben Avraham ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.21.07)
20. This is our future - NO GALUT MENTALITY
David ,   Holon, SpringHill,IL   (02.21.07)
These are our maccabees who will lead to our victory. Strength and Honour to Your Heritage and To Your People AM YISRAEL CHAI
21. Judenrein?
Michael ,   Baltimore   (02.21.07)
The fantasy of a Palestinian state living peacfully side by side to Israel within the Green Line is exposed by the insistence of the Arabs and their leftist Jewish supporters that a Palestinian state must be Judenrein. However, the suggestion that the Jewish state be "Arabrein" is considered racist. A settlement of two countries could only work if Jews have a right to live anywhere in their homeland, as Arab Israeli citizens now have in Israel. Given the Palestinian and Islamic educationaly system is educating their poplulation to hate and kill Jews anywhere we live, I think we should put this fantasy to bed once and for all. That Jews can live in Baltimore or anywhere else on earth (except Saudia Arabia and other Moslem countries) but would be banned from their homeland is ridiculous! Let's keep having Jewish babies and expanding the Yishuvim.
22. INDEED! Congrats on the healthy birthrate !!!
John ,   Amsterdam, Holland   (02.21.07)
23. #14 Please Read
David ,   Holon, SpringHill,IL   (02.21.07)
Why do you complain about the birthrates of Arabs in Jerusalem but now you are upset that Jews your own brethren are allowing you to remain the majority. What do you want, less Arabs but as well less Jews? Do you think your atheist friends in the government have done such a splendid job? Don' you think its time for change, every sector is filled with "elitists" that just look out for themselves. Where is your complaints about what the governemnt is doing about Sderot? WHERE ARE YOU?!?!? Why don't you care about your own brethren? We don't have time for this, we are at war. Why cant you wake up and see whats going on, we are entering World War 3 whether you like it or not. You ask, if there is a G-d where was He during the Holocaust. But the real question, where are you, what are you doing to prevent another one. We Jews believe in a Almighty that fights when we fight, action and we will prevail. Start doing something, save your brethren from another Holocaust. Help us redeem and glorify this country. Help us get rid of this corruption.
24. "Peace Now" - Orwellian nonsense
Rob ,   UK   (02.21.07)
Another far-left extremist organisation intent on destroying Israel from the inside. That they call themselves "Peace Now" is a crime in itself, a more accurate moniker would be "Appeasement Right Now Please." Oh and it's called Judea & Samaria not the "West Bank."
25. Duh
Dan ,   USA   (02.21.07)
26. Ridiculous
Jayzee ,   World Citizen   (02.21.07)
Now Peace Now is concerned with the birthrates of Jews in Judea and Samaria? I keep waiting for the punchline.
27. peace now and gaza
mimi ,   n.y.   (02.21.07)
i suggest p.n. move to gaza,get captured by the peaceful and tollerant,negotiate with there captives and live there in that oasis that they helped to create along with the degenerate olmert governmant.
28. They just should not forget
(02.21.07)
That they will have leave this places one day , hope they will not cry and scream like the others did when they had to leave , they are living on volcano which can get active any time , they only should not forget this or not to say later that they didn't know .
29. Natural Selection
David ,   Israel   (02.21.07)
Settlers: Having Children. Peace Now: Not Having Children. Draw your own demographic and electoral conclusions about what is to come...
