1. March of the morons
Ran ,   London   (06.10.07)
2. Sad delusional fools
Drumgoole ,   Newark NJ   (06.10.07)
I can certainly empathize with the participents in the parade who have had loved ones killed in the ongoing war of terrorism launched against Israel. However, these people along with other well-meaning and naive people are in denial about the causes of the Palestinian terrorism against Israel. They just cannot get past their delusional beliefs that Israel is able to make peace if they only bring all of the settlers from the territories that were won during the 6 Day War. The reason for their delusions is that attributing the cause of the conflict to themselves means they have control and can end the war. To look at the fact that Israeli withdrawal from territories has not helped peace and caused more conflict wouold be to acknowledge the fact that Israel has no control over ending a war that the other side wants to continue fighting. One thing I have to give the left credit for is their use of slogans. So whether they call themselves "Peace Now" or declare that the occupation is the end of Zionism, theyare able to attract those whose hearts are in the right place ( and whose brains are in lock-down) as well as the assorted misfits like Pollack of the nuts who belong to anarchists against the wall. They are just like the abused spouse who fantasize that the abuse would end if only they stopped burning the toast or had dinner ready on time or............
3. Keep it going!
Semper Fi! ,   San Diego, USA   (06.09.07)
And the self loathing renegade Jew saga continues... Was Soros, the New York Times, the CNN bureau and the jewish news producers of CBS, ABC, NBC present, otherwise I'm sure the other renegades were missing them a lot !!
4. Isn't Gaza telling these folks something?
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (06.10.07)
Make video's, take names, numbers and addresses, and when their ideas turn into nightmares for the entire country, conscript every last one into the military and put 'em on the front lines.
5. Leftists - you do not deserve this country
Howard   (06.10.07)
6. The occupation's problems are due to
Howard   (06.10.07)
the lack of vision by 1967 leaders. There should have been measures put into effect to solidify the Jewish presence in the reconquered land. The "soft-hearted" or rather self-destructive Left sabotaged this victory and made sure that these gains would be eroded with time. There is just a very tiny chance of correcting this situation. I just keep hoping for a miracle in the political arena. Something that will make a drastic turn to avoid the current spiraling into the unravelling of Israel.
7. Victims of occupation
Margaret   (06.10.07)
I wonder if Mrs.Peled thinks the 11 people murdered on that bus in Tel Aviv in 1954 were victims of the "occupation", or if the 5 children shot and killed outside their kindergarten in 1956 in Sharfir , were victims of the "occupation",or the countless other Israelis killed and injured before 1967. If so they were victims of occupied Tel Aviv or occupied Haifa, because the so called "occupation" had not even happened yet. Some people will do anything to hold on to their delusions. I sympathize with her over the loss of her beautiful child but I still think she is dangerously naive if she thinks giving away land is the only way to bring peace between Israelis and Arabs. The Arabs first must recognize that Israel even has a right to exist which tragically most of them still stubbornly refuse to do.
8. A Laughably Weak Protest
Adam Rosen ,   Lafayette Hill, USA   (06.10.07)
lefty retards too busy with shameful gay parade
9. occupation killing zionism
Dovidl ,   New York   (06.10.07)
Does anyone reading this think the spoiled liberal zfonim who participate in this march have any clue what zionism is? If you want to know what kills zionism, go talk to the kids aged 14-21 who were evacuated from Gush Katif in '05.
10. Only thousands?
Mary ,   Jerusalem   (06.10.07)
I thought the "people of G.D" would have gathered in the hundreds of thousands for such a peaceful cause. Blood over peace? Come now, does that seem like the image Israel wants to portray? Guess so. Careful who we call the terrorists now.
11. I wish they realized that "Occupation" as defined....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (06.10.07)
by the Palestinians includes Tel Aviv. Lets ditch that stupid word once and for all. If you mean Judea and Smaria or the West Bank or whatever you want to call it say it. "Occupation" is a meaningless term in and of itself.
12. SO THEY NOW DESICRATE SHABBAT TO FURTHER THEIR ANTI RELIGIOU
The people's voice   (06.10.07)
STANCE AS SHOWN BY YOUR PHOTOGRAPH - WHAT MORE EVIDENCE IS NEEDED THAT THERE WILL SOON BE AN IMPLOSION OF THE STATE.
13. Be careful, now!!!
enzo ,   london,uk   (06.10.07)
Yes, be careful now. Enough playing this game...! There comes a point in life when you have to sit down and ponder! Now it's the time! You have bloody enemies all around you. If you can't see the enemies around you, all you have to do is to look a bit farther: you'll see other enemies who want your end and destruction! You can't even see those ones? Too bad!!! Then get a bloody history book and start studying and count with one of your precious little hands how many friends you have in this world!!! Why am I telling you this? It's rather simple! As if your enemies were not enough, you and your mates are doing your part in destroying the Country that your ancestors built with their blood and sweat! You are now the added enemy. You are the enemy "within" which is eroding the only democracy in the M.E. Don't do it! Stop messing around with History, Politics and G-d!!! Work with Israel. Work for Israel. It's getting dark...!!!
14. DEAD OF ZIONISM
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (06.10.07)
is the result of its socialist,atheist roots. Ynet is full of socalled israelis that have no connection with their original past nor ancestors. This is evident in the media,education and all government institutions, were there is this constant brainwashing and molding of the israeli mindset. Because of this there is no connection to the land and there is a lod of lemming behavior going on. Zionism has turned on itself and just by reading Ynet ,one can see the level of insanity increasing daily.
15. was it before or after the gay parade?
israeli ,   israel   (06.10.07)
16. # 1-3 - monstrous warmongers
Isragirl ,   Qiryat Yam, Israel   (06.10.07)
Why don't you come and fight in Gaza, or sit out during the rocket attacks with your kids. Or live in Haifa and try to appreciate the mutual need of Jews and Arabs in each other. People of Israel deserve peaceful existence. So do the people of Gaza and the West Bank. Passing judgement from the safety of your distant homes - how brave and how wise...
17. #8
john ,   bethlehem   (06.10.07)
Dovidl, what in your post has any relevance to your title? What do you speak of to justify the term 'laughably weak protest'? Lefty retards? Better than a right-wing retard with no idea of what he is talking about, better than some absentee judge, sitting safe at home in America and having no real clue about what is happeninig here or what happened on the demonstration this evening.
18. Yeah, end the occupation.
New York, USA   (06.10.07)
Get out of Tel Aviv too. When a Palestinian talks about "occupation" he is talking about all of Israel. Ther's no differeance for him between Jerusalem, Hebron and Tel Aviv and Haifa all of Israel is "occupied" land according to a Palestinian. Basically these morons are marching to become homeless and stateless and they don't even realize it.
19. Curious????
Matthew ,   U.S. and Israel   (06.10.07)
Okay, you leftists. Do you realize that Israel would not exist if it had not been for The Right? You lefties think the whole World can negotiate it's way through anything. It doesn't work that way with arabs. Show me where any arab country has given Israel peace. Why is it that even arab countries that do not border Israel calls for the destruction of Israel? You leftists need to study Torah. You should be ashamed. God gave the land of Israel to the Jews and the Jews need to fight for every inch of land that is rightfully theirs. Leftists are self-hating and blame the World's problems on themselves. It is the leftists that will ultimately destroy Israel if the Right does nothing to stop them.
20. $16
Hans ,   USA   (06.10.07)
Isragirl, You are rather naive to think that the Arabs even WANT or DESIRE peace with Israel. I tell you, THEY DON'T. Give up more of your land and you'll have the same problems you have now, except all of you will be huddled into a 5 square kilometer piece of land so they can easily pick you off with rockets like fishing in a fish bowl. In support of Israel, Hans/USA
21. To #18
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (06.10.07)
What do you and/or I know about any of that, sitting safely over here? Ahmadinejad can't say often enough that he wants to destroy Israel, Hamas refuses to grant Israel even the right to exist, they're lobbing Qassams into Israel just about every day, but we, obviously, don't understand any of it. Maybe those threats are only verbal billets doux in code between the Palis, Mahmoud and Israel. And maybe freedom is free, after all, and we're just too dumb to realize it. It's sad to see people willing to give away - piece by little piece and for no more than what's been shown to be empty promises - what cost them so much in blood to get.
22. # 21 is correct...please read, people.
Matthew ,   U.S. and Israel   (06.10.07)
23. zionism
avi ,   ny   (06.10.07)
The post-zionist JINO's that march on Shabbat are killing zionism
24. The logic of the illogical
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (06.10.07)
There's a ynet article that states that Pali gunmen broke through the border fortifications at the Kissufim crossing with the probable intentions to kidnap an Israeli soldier. According to the logic of the anti-occupation marchers, this would not have happened, had there not been any fortifications or soldiers. I just bet that the Jihadists would have come across with a marching band, playing HaTikva until they found those soldiers, all for no reasons other than to throw flowers and blow kisses at them. Whatever those people are smoking, I want some of it.
25. Ending The Occupation
Not Jewish ,   USA   (06.10.07)
The Arabs should vacate the Jewish homelands, thus ending Arab occupation of Israeli soil. They can leave now peacefully or be thrown off later.
26. IF ISREAL WANTES TO END OCCUPATION WITHDRAWE TO PRE 1948 .
SAMED ,   USA   (06.10.07)
WITHDRAWEL TO THE PRE 1948 BORDER IS THE ONLY WAY TO END OCCUPATION.1967 BORDER WILL ONLY CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS.
27. EU Agents
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (06.10.07)
28. "peace now" marks end of humanity
Ilan ,   Ariel   (06.10.07)
That would be a much more accurate headline. These are people who have taken a communist talking point and made into their only ideology. It isn't peace they want, but the destruction of their fellow citizens. It should be obvious that getting Jews to live in the Land of Israel is the definition of Zionism. So Peace Now is both post-Zionist, post-truth, and post-morality.
29. End the REAL Occupation NOW!
Dr. Reuven Bar-On ,   (Occupied) Tel Aviv   (06.10.07)
When will we get things politically and historically correct? When will we end the REAL occupation of Israel? We should focus on the Muslim occupation that began as early as the 7th and 8th century up until the British occupation of Israel. This has led to many years of injustice, discrimination and violence. End the occupation NOW!
30. occupation
isiaiah   (06.10.07)
the people are occupied but the land is liberated for free jewish refuge especially around jerusalem . if the arabs and islamic world had just accepted a partition of palestine in 1937 and the salvation of european jewry into an humanitarian islamic califate this mess would not have occured . denounce the qassam revolts 0 islam .
