91. #31 U say palestine has a right to
jerome ,   basalt, co   (03.06.07)
exsist. they do not have a right to blow up woman, children and any body else to get there virgins or there point across. they don't have a right to exsist when there charter still calls for the destruction of the Jewish state. They do not have the right to there own state when they teach there own children hate, lies and deception. They are responsible for there own hardship and don't mind as long as there long term goal is achieve in destoying the Jews. YOU ARE ARROGANT WITH A STRONG OPINION!
92. Clearly Antisemites. Distort history
Semsem ,   New York, USA   (03.06.07)
We know that the German Church collaborated with the Nazis and that they were antisemites. To compare the treatment of Palestinians to be the same as the treatment of Jjews by the Nazis shows that the German church are blatant antisemites who distort history.
93. #12. Far from Lucid!
Ram ,   london   (03.06.07)
Firstly the emphasis is on the fact that these Cardinals belong to the Chuch. The fact they are German compounds their problem. The wall serves its purpose by keeping out murderers. There was no wall until these "martyrs" sought their virgins by blowing up israelis on their way to cuckooland.
94. The Germans discovered the moral values
Ron ,   USA   (03.06.07)
by comparing themselves to the Jews. Nasty creatures will stay nasty. Don't expect anything from those who gassed 6000000 Jews. No wonder they sympathize with the Palestinian Arab terrorists and want more Jews dead.
95. Chief Rabbinate Shlomo Amar !
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
Send the Vatican the LOVE LETTER !
96. Mr. OLMERT send a LOVE LETTER TO THE VATICAN CITY!
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
IT IS TIME THE VATICAN APOLOGIZE TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE !
97. THE ISRAEL DIPLOMAT IN ITALY AND ROME
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
SEND A PROTEST NOTE to THE VATICAN -POPE BENEDICT 16
98. Wake up call
(03.06.07)
True, the Israelis aren't like the Nazis who killed off their victims quickly. Instead they are doing it slowly with covert and overt methods. If they did it like the Nazis there would be a bigger outcry from the world so Israel is resorting to apartheid-like conditions to try to control, and perhaps even to kill or expel the Palestinians. So when will Israel recognize Palestinians right to exist in their own separate Palestine next to Israel? When will Israel show good faith in their peace talks (like not build settlements on Palestinian land when talking about peace)? Time to wake up, Israel, stop the occupation and start talking WITH the Palestinians before it's too late.
99. They have it wrong it's the other way around
prisner#34pasport#34   (03.06.07)
We have caged ourselves in and it's them who want to hurt us! We just make the best of it.
100. Bishops and Cardinals
Ram ,   London   (03.06.07)
These two faced high ranking members of the Church make a mockery of common sense. I wonder who is the equivalent of Mengele in all this. These useless historic inventors of cruelty and the "jewish sacrificial lamb" are nothing but widbags that know no bounds when committing their heinous crimes. Their contribution to humankind is not only soaked in blood but comes deceptively packaged as loving-kindness. Ask some of their child victims in the headlines in recent years.
101. #98. Wake up no name!
Ram ,   London   (03.06.07)
Where have you been while Oslo and Sharm Al Sheikh took place? Talk to whom? Those who are not prepered to recognise you? Those that want to exterminate you? Maybe you bring the Palestinians to the table, I will guarantee to bring the Israelis. Get real and get the facts not the propaganda and the hate.
102. German Bishops
Brod ,   USA   (03.06.07)
They are antisemites. They should not be allowed to step foot in Israel to enable them to spew their crap against Israel. As antisemites, they are fake christians.
103. Germany should Charge these Bishops of Germany
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
for their anti-sematic Remarks made outside Germany in Israel against the Israeli People ! The Bishops of the Catholic Currch in Germany are not above the LAW !
104. #84
Chana ,   USA   (03.06.07)
You are either a self hating Jew or a Arab. I am Israeli living in the USA. I think you should go live with your beloved Pali's since you seem to hate Israel so much
105. The church in Europe created the background
Bill ,   USA   (03.06.07)
for exterminating 6 Mln Jews. If Israel had not been created the Germans would not have been reminded of their worst crimes in the human history.
106. Bishops and tablemanners
Cyclops ,   greater Gaza   (03.06.07)
I am quite sure that their eminences have considered their verdict with appreciable gravity.We need only peruse the pages of history to learn how it really should be done.
107. Holocaust - the Land on which the Camp was operated...
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
was owned by the Catholic Church of Germany !The Church conspired with the Nazi Germans now Modern Germany of the European Union !
108. German bishops
Avraham ,   NYC   (03.06.07)
Stop molesting young boys.
109. which reminds me ...
chris ,   canada   (03.06.07)
i wonder if this is related to a pic in a forwarded email i saw the other day ... a nazi flag, except that instead of a swastika in the middle, there was a star of david ...
110. Antisemitic from craddle to grave
A Guest ,   Canada   (03.06.07)
Germans bishops? Color me surprised! Europe's antisemitisim is breast-fed. And such nazi references to Israel by "German" bishops are rather ironic.
111. The German virus of hate toward the Jews
John ,   USA   (03.06.07)
is alive and well! The very existence of Israel is a reminder to the nation of Germany and the rest of Europe how low they fell. No wonder they smear the state of Israel. If Israel is taken over by the Arabs the Yad Vashem museum and other reminders of their atrocities will not exist.
112. Comparing the Nazi atrocities to Israel's defense measures
Danny ,   USA   (03.06.07)
is like comparing the actions of the serial German murderers to a cop who is trying to save the lives of the innocent Israeli civilians.
113. They should look to their own behavior again with a double s
art ,   jc usa   (03.06.07)
These bishops are is such fear for Christians under Muslim rule that they think that condeming Israel will protect them. They are wrong, ask the Christians Arabs who have flee PA areas or the Copts in Egypt. Tyey would better serve their flocks to support Israel and fight the evils of Jihad.
114. Israel has the records. Expose the enemies NOW!
Michael ,   USA   (03.06.07)
Expose the German bishops who participated in the slaughter of 6000000 Jews. The only way to fight the enemies like the German bishops is to expose them and the historical facts of their German church.
115. Nazi Rhetoric
Ed ,   USA   (03.06.07)
The German bishops show their mastery of Nazi rhetoric. Hitler also succeeded in painting the Jews as a threat. That's why the Germans were willing to round up Jews and send them to concentration camps. The Bishops are carrying on the long established tradition of German anti-semitism. They should fool no one.
116. #84 i will tell you one thing JERK!
michal 16 years old ,   girl from Israel   (03.06.07)
GOOO and live with ur friends that u love so much (palestinians)... you have to understand that the people who is runing the "bad show" is the "HAMAS" because of them we have no moment of peace! if they will drop it ,the middle east would be a great peacefull place!!!
117. to all bishops
(03.06.07)
walk into any arab country, egypt, lebanon, jordan, syria, etc...and into persian iran and you'll be appaled at the way people live. the repression, the fear of expression, the jails full of opposers, the torture, the killing, stoning, hanging and torture, the poverty which is unbelievable, the economy and infrastructure, the poor uneducated masses, the religious fear and opression, the inability to attain jobs, severe unemployment, dirt on streets and dilapitated homes, the poor quality water and markets, the filth on neighborhood streets, etc.... the dissatisfaction of the masses with crooked leaders who deliver nothing in terms of progress, jobs, education, economic aid!!!! sounds familiar? yes, i have seen it in many of these countries with my own eyes....where moms and dads are blind and cannot work because of poor medical care and so the children have to support their families. from what i know israel doesn't own these countries and territories. how come they look like concentration camps with human filth and dirt and poor living conditions nowadays? the answer in their governments, not israel. their governments who deo not give a shit about the masses and treat them like subhuman animals. it's not israel!
118. In fact all the land owned by the Catholic Church..
ben ,   singapore   (03.06.07)
where the Nazi camps operated , were land subject to the Nazi Germany garrison dominate occupied terrotaries, the church authorities conspired with the Nazi.That includes POLAND ! The Vatican is tained by the BLOOD OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE. For sins they commit against G-d they may seek forgiveness form G-d but for the sins they commited against the Jews will not be forgiven.The dead are no longer there to forgive the sin of the Germans ! No Sacrament of Confession of the catholic apostolic church could absolve the sins commited against the Jews of the Holocaust ! This is Divine Justice !
119. Israel is a decaying pariah state
Hani ,   Palestine   (03.06.07)
120. #19 michael steiner
vt   (03.06.07)
tell me michael....enlighten me! if israel withdraws to the pre 1967 borders, how do you think the palestinian issue will solve itself. as all can see, israel did leave gaza to the palestinians and evacuated....still, suicide bombers and katyoushas eminate from there towards and inside israel. how can one explain this? if israel were to also leave the west bank, what do you think the situation will be there? not much different than gaza itself today. barak, in 2000-2001 in the taqba agreement, offered arafat 97% of the land israel won and occupied after the 1967 war, and he totally refused. why is that???? do you think he would have returned alive to the palestinian territories had he accepted this wonderful offer???? the only offer that was fair and "humane" for the palestinians to finally create their own state. he also offered jerusalem except for the jewish and armenian quarters to arafat and he refused. how is that offer different than what the palestinians insist on now???? arafat and supporters of peace would have been assasinated on the spot had they accepted the israeli offer in 2000-2001. and that is the truth. arafat left the table without even a counter offer, angering clinton and prince bandar from saudi arabia who insisted that the offer was exceptional to build a palestinian state on the land israel was willing to concede to the palestinians. even that offer was not accepted. why? is it because the palestinians were interested in peace and a nation, or is it because they won't accept anything short of having israel nonexistant in their midst? you tell me. all the billions of dollars poured into the territories have never come to fruition in terms of building an adequate infrastructure and a prosperous economy. this aid, did however, reach the muslim militias with their doctrine and charter of wiping israel out and finishing off the jews in the middle east. you know it, i do, and the rest of the world does too. the only reason israel keeps the palestinians away and under military watch is to protect israelis and citizens from murder and bombings. the wall israel built was a last resort to deflect incoming terrorists from gaza and the west bank. believe me, israel would have rather spent its hard earned moneies inside its country rather than spend it on walls and check points! what we americans are naive about and do not ever understand is arab mentality and the centuries of anti jewish education, filled with hate and violence that the children and entire arab generations werfe fed.....precicely by those militia factions and government leaders that were never interested in peace and co-existance. they simply refuse to accept a jewish state in their midst, 1967 borders or not. israel can give it all to the arab palestinians. this will not quiet them down. it will, instead, embolden them to ask for more until there is nothing left of us but ashes. you don't live in israel and probably never did and never will. the situation on the ground is quite different than what you propose and how you see and analyze it. live there and see.
