Ned ,   Amman   (04.13.07)
Hey terry. slow down, you cannot have transition to complete dictatorship so soon. Don't worry Israel is already on the process, jsut give it some time.
32. USA Tax dollars won't support government MADE OF JEWS
Tupac ,   NY, USA   (04.13.07)
FOR THE JEWS in the JEWISH STATE. Especially since we are demanding the Arabs become secular; ie Iraq. So face the facts of 2007 and stop using the bible as a legal document for the land. It doesn't hold up in any court.
33. The Arab "facts" are based on fantasies
Roger ,   USA   (04.13.07)
When did they tell the truth? NEVER!

leon ,   Grand Rapids USA   (04.13.07)
Any day now, Arabs will declare Dearborn, Michigan to be sacred Moslem ground.

Israel Zwick ,   nyc   (04.13.07)
It's absolutely shocking that such a person is a member of the Israeli Knesset. What other country would allow an enemy of the State to serve in their Parliament? Perhaps it's time to consider an alternative governmental arrangement.
37. By the way Azmi, how are your melons? Safe, I hope.

No, my grandma has heard about Deir Yassin massacre http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deir_Yassin_massacre and decided to leave being afraid that should would be a victim of the genocide that what taking place at this time. No, Mr Bishara doesn't believe in seperation it is israel who has built an 8 meter long wall to seperate us from the rest of the residents of the palestinian occupied territories. I hate leaving in this apartheid system. Yet, I am not ready to leave Jerusalem, bc i believe jerusalem is MINE! :) :)
42. " he is considering returning to Israel " ? of course...
stephane ,   france   (04.13.07)
this hyppocrit arab always criticize israel,but don't worry,he knows how lucky he is to be an arab living in the only democracy of the middle-east! he play words like he love palis,syrians etc...but he will never go to live there.israel it's too good for this ennemi.
43. he is right about there being occupatiion
zionist forever   (04.13.07)
There is occupation and the arabs must resist it. The occupation is arabs living on jewish land and they must resist the tolerance that the Israeli government shows towards them. The arabs should certainly be thrown out the knesset and Peretz should get rid of the arab he isnisted Olmert give a cabinet posting to. ARABS MUST WORK TO END THE OCCUPTION
44. if its arabs land
zionist forever   (04.13.07)
Then why is he serving in a government that runs a jewish state and whose national symbols are jewish. If this is arab land then shouldnt he stop betraying his ideals by serving in a jewish government and start his own alternative government could it be because he likes the imuinty he gets in the knesset and life is better in the jewish state than it would be if Israel became the 23rd arab state.
45. the more i read khaled's posts...
bernard ,   faransa   (04.13.07)

very good, please don't forget the "right of return", 1947 borders, throw in some http://www.memritv.org/search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=1398 Pali Jew hate TV and your "state" moves further away than you can imagine...
48. #41 Jerusalem was repeatedly bombed by the Arab terrorists
Bill ,   USA   (04.13.07)
that is what you do to take over other people's property. Your culture is based on twisting the facts. You only want Jerusalem because it is Jewish. You always want everything that is owned by the Jews.
49. Khaled and Bishara state of mind

"How Many Jews Did Mama Kill?" Interviewer: "Let's talk with the two children of the jihad-fighting martyrdom-seeker Rim Al-Riyashi, Dhoha and Muhammad. Dhoha, you love Mama, right? Where did Mama go?" Dhoha: "To Paradise." Interviewer: "What did Mama do?" Dhoha: "She committed martyrdom." Interviewer: "She killed Jews, right?" Interviewer: "How many did she kill, Muhammad?" Muhammad: "Huh?" Interviewer: "How many Jews did Mama kill?" Muhammad: "This many... " Interviewer: "How many is that?" Muhammad: "Five." Interviewer: "Do you love Mama? Do you miss Mama? "Where is Mama, Muhammad?" Muhammad: "In Paradise." Interviewer: "Dhoha, what would you like to recite for us?" Dhoha: "In the name of Allah the Merciful the Compassionate: 'When comes the help of Allah, and victory, and you see people entering the religion of Allah in troops, then celebrate the praise of your Lord, and ask His forgiveness, for He is ever ready to show mercy.'" Interviewer: "What else would you like to recite? You have read the surah, 'When comes the help of Allah, and victory.' What would you like to recite for us now?" Dhoha: "'Mama Rim.'"

51. #15; Point taken!!
Doc Holliday ,   Detroit   (04.13.07)
You make a excellent point. I apoligize if it came across as bigoted. I simply meant that when people are guilty they suddenly fall back on the race card.

53. ISRAEL REALLY BELONGS TO......

TO WHOM EVER TAKES BETTER CARE OF HER AND IT'S WILDLIFE AND NATURE, NOW TELL US WHO DOES PLEASE.
54. #21 What do you contribute Layla?
Lina ,   USA   (04.14.07)
Israeli Arabs have their own leaders, schools, newspapers. They have a better standard of living and more rights than Muslims in Arab lands. Israeli Arabs tend to have large families with many of their financial needs subsidized by the Israeli government. They can get a university education, don't need to serve in the military and are free to succeed. Since many Israeli Arabs are college educated and have professional jobs, I wonder why good old Layla is cleaning toilets? Could it be she's not smart? Maybe she's too lazy to look for work or sits back like an ofendi waiting to be taken care of. Better yet, she doesn't live in Israel and only knows what she reads in the anti-Israel media.

Edithann ,   USA   (04.14.07)
You missed her point...but it seems you all do...and that's why he is having second thoughts about coming back...he'd be risking his life..and everyone knows that...
56. To MK Azmi Bishara. Get On - Or Move Out !!!
Maansingh ,   The Netherlands   (04.14.07)
You said :"... we (i.e. the Arabs) are the original owners of this land (i.e. Israel)". Bishara, WHEN did your history start -- in 70 AD, or in 1320 B.Chr. ?? ISRAEL, which includes Judea and Samaria, nowadays known as the West Bank, is given to the Jewish People as THEIR homeland by Yahweh (i.e. the Supreme Lord) since 1320 B.Chr. -- as revealed by Moses the Law Giver. SO, Bishara, whether your history starts after 70 AD or before 1320 B.Chr. -- the whole of Israel BELONGS to the Jewish People. WHETHER you like it or not !!! SO, get on with your job as M.K. for the benefit of the Jewish State of Israel -- OR move out !!!
57. #55 I was hoping Layla would respond
Lina ,   USA   (04.14.07)
Her points are nothing you can't find on anti-Zionist websites which I suspect you frequent. Bashara's life is not in danger but his political career is. He ran away from Israel and obviously has something to hide.
58. Lee , usa
charles ,   petach tikva   (04.14.07)
You are such a extreme rightist Jewish fascist , but live easyly in the USA . It's easy for you to come with this kahana fascist racist . Better shut up if you are not living here . This kahana remembers us of the same theory that killed 6 million of our brethren .
59. caveman #50
Keren ,   SP-now in Israel   (04.15.07)
Your comment is very interesting... I enjoyed...
60. like i said, it just keeps getting better
Layla ,   Nazareth   (04.15.07)
First off, props to Edithann for seeing Lina's comments for what they are: further evidence of the racism and ignorance in Jewish Israeli society towards their Palestinian Arab counterparts. I don't clean toilets for a living. Having graduated magna cum laude from a MA program at a North American university, I have been more fortunate than other Palestinians living in Nazareth in terms of securing work, largely because my English skills are much better than those of most Israeli Jews. Funny though, no Jew has ever hired me for anything - Arabs are my only clientele. Friends of mine who were educated in Israel and whose Hebrew is much better than that of the many recent Jewish immigrants to Israel, still struggle to make a living. Many of them can't even get their foot in the door, particularly if they dare to express political opinions. Most avoid such discussions with potential Jewish employers like the plague and it's no wonder when we have to deal with people like Lina.
