31. Settling Yesha Destroys Zionism? What a Pile!!
Ruvy in Jerusalem ,   Israel   (06.10.07)
What has destroyed Zionism is the determined rejection of Judaism by these fools in Tel Aviv who buy Arab lies - and who demonstrate their contempt of their own culture by demonstrating on the Sabbath. This, and the descent into criminality by Israel's "governing class" has doomed the achievement of Zionism - the State.
32. perspective
simple observer   (06.10.07)
Looking from the outside, the Arab-Isreali slaughter house isn't much different than Rwanda. Except you guys have more money so you can afford F-16s& the Hutus & Tutsis had to settle for machetes (like Arabs). So much for Progress!
33. Streets were quiet
Russel ,   Tlv   (06.10.07)
I live near the kikar and all I can say is that life went on as normal. Usually if there's a big rally everything's cordoned off, throngs of people are crowding the streets etc, etc, but not this time.
34. Zionism cannot be saved
Mohammed   (06.10.07)
Zionism cannot be saved. Tel Aviv is no less occupied territory than Hebron. The refugees must be allowed to return to their homes and the apartheid regime if Zionism dismantled. Peace will come and zionism is done
35. to 16. the arabs in haifa didn't cheer each katuysha?
(06.10.07)
36. people with clean hearts and minds
(06.10.07)
Those are the future of Israel , those who knows that without peace Israel is digging it's grave by it's hands , those people knows that without peace Israel in great danger in the area , those people they think and they don't have blocked minds and they are looking for the future of at least their children ... but not the occupation who is killing zionism because the zionists who wanted this occupation and still ... but i hope those people can one day arrive to their peacful goals .
37. How To End Occupation.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (06.10.07)
Make the territories un-occupied.
38. What occupation?
freejay ,   Israel   (06.10.07)
This word was nade up by the Arafat camp and its totally incorrect. Pre 67 there was never any talk of occupation, but now it seems to be the medieas favourite word. How can israel be the occupiers when its their own bib;ical land?????? The only ones that are committing the occupation are all the arabs in west bank and gazza that arafat told to come over from egypt and jordan. QUIT THE PROPAGANDA LIES ABOUT OCUPATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
39. If it walks, talks and looks like a clown ...
redkmike ,   tel aviv and london   (06.10.07)
40. Peace good idea...too bad Palis don't want it.
Rachel ,   Tel Aviv   (06.10.07)
41. Give 'em ramat aviv jimmel FIRST.
Settler ,   TA   (06.10.07)
AND ALL settlers who live there.
42. good going Israelis.
USA ,   USA   (06.10.07)
we like to hear this kind of news coming from your nation. Of course the occupation must end. Of course the Palestinians must be treated well in order for peace to transpire. keep up the good work. the world applauds you.
43. Can these folks reuse their permit for the Gay Pride Parade?
(06.10.07)
44. Sad people , sad talk backs
charles ,   petach tikva   (06.10.07)
Here we have those "dreamers" again . They want peace ? wich Israeli do'nt want this ? but to have peace , you need two sides who want it . If on one side , we sing songs of peace , the other side , their songs only preach death and destruction . Before the "occupation" as they say , how many Israelis were killed by those "peace loving" fedayeen ? Who is to blame [ or to bless ] for this "occupation" [ i prefer liberation regarding at least Yeroushalaim ] Who attacked Israel , despite Israel begging him to stay out of this war ? Yes , the late king of Jordan . So dreamers , look at who we have on the other side . Wake up please . Sad tb's : do not mix Shabbat desecration with this manifestation , people who do not believe do not desecrate anything . Maybe they made an error , probably that Motsae Shabbat , religious Israelis would have joined them too . And remember this that i have said already many times : it were 6000 mostly secular , if not anti religious who gave their blood for this country , and not the praying people .
45. The reason Israelis are not allowed to enter the territories
JPS ,   Efrat   (06.10.07)
Bassam Aramin is quoted as saying "The reason Israelis are not allowed to enter the territories is that your politicians are afraid that the people would find out the truth about what's going on there..." While the Palestinians are indeed suffering, the actual reason for the ban is that many Israelis have been murdered after crossing into Palestinian territory. Ynet readers should learn that there is no simple "end to the occupation". The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is deep and complex. The end will only come after both sides sit down and hammer out a peace treaty. Unfortunately, neither side is ready for that right now. Leftists have to stop parrotting the term "occupation" and stop using the phony term "apartheid" - constantly shouting both will not bring peace.
46. To Isragirl
Ran ,   London   (06.10.07)
Valid point - I became a yored for economical reasons (I like to have food), but do plan to come back when I can.
47. But the gay community are not allowed
Talula ,   Israel   (06.10.07)
to have their peaceful, colourful gay parade? Something is very very wrong here.
48. Israel cannot afford this kind of manifestations!
Keren ,   SP-Israel   (06.10.07)
If Israel had an intelligent , dign and Jewish govern,it would forbidenn manifestations that strenghten the enemies. These leftists idiots,are idiots! They don't have any sight and vision, and are driven by anti Israel foreign intersts, like humble and stupid sheeps. Democracy is not, and can be not, IDIOCY!
49. Notice the idiots didn't call for an end to 60 years of war
David ,   Rehovot   (06.10.07)
They're poor education or too few synapses are preventing them from comprehending that '67 didn't happen in a void. The Arabs declared war and have been fighting it for 60 years. If the protesters were intelligent and honest, they'd be protesting for that to end.
50. zionism by definition: the occupation of zion by the jews
aaron ,   ra'anana   (06.10.07)
as a Jew, i'm proud to occupy the land of zion, given to my ancestor Abraham by the Lord over 4,000 years ago.
51. #32 I agree with your observation
RJ ,   Canada   (06.10.07)
I have just finished reading Barbara Coloroso's book called Extraordinary Evil; A brief history of Genocide. The contempt, the dehumanization of another people is all present in Israel's attitude towards and treatment of Palestinians. Coloroso describes several stages of genocide. In Act 5: Pinnacle of Pain, the "bullied slump further into depression and/or rage...... Robbed of ways to make a living or maintain healthy relationships, they begin to resemble the dehumanized caricature the bullies portrayed them as." In Act 6, Finale, "the bullied not trusting the international community to protect or help them, do whatever it takes to get rid of their pain. Their pent-up rage may explode into violent aggression against the bullies and all those who appear to have helped them, those who stood by and did nothing, and those who failed to protect them." It is sad how the bullied can become the bullies. Yes, so much for progress!
