1. CHEAP SHOT
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (03.07.08)
Our herzilist Israelis will never get it. The harder they try to convince the world in their desperate assimilated ways, the more hatred will come towards us. With Purim coming up,it is pretty easy to find out how to deal with the Haman's and Amalek's among us. This a cheap and disgusting way trying to sway a already known negative public opinoin and only gives our haters more reason to celebrate. Olmert and Livini are taking "ADVANTAGE" as usual to accomplish nothing over the backs of the same people they sell out for their own short lived CONVOLUTED aspirations. Their lack of any decency is getting worse every day.
2. Act like a victim, be treated as a victim.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (03.07.08)
We will get no sympathy nor support - those that hate us, hate us, period. They will always find some twisted justification for terrorism & violence against us. This attempt to elicit sympathy only shows us as a weak victim unable to defend ourselves, that we are a bunch of helpless losers, exactly the image of the powerless "ghetto Jew" .... This is not why the State of Israel was established. Jews needed a country so that we could defend ourselves. We don't need the world's pity - no one respects a loser. Quite the contrary, when we were perceived as winners after the 1967 war, that is when we had the most support. As usual, this gov't. of losers has things backwards.
3. HAS HANIYA GOT SOME KIND OF PROTECTIA ?
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (03.07.08)
WHEN IT COMES TO JUSTICE,THERE CANNOT BE ANY PLEA BARGAININNG,! NO DISTINCTION SHOULD BE MADE FOR TARGETTINNG,. HANIYA HAS BEEN GIVEN SOME KIND OF PROTECTIA FAR TOO LONG TOO LONG.... PLEASE "HASHEM"..LET THIS EVIL MAN BE ELLIMINATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE ,
4. Hamas should stop Attacking about innocent people
sam ,   tehran,iran   (03.07.08)
All Iranian is with Israelis people, just we don't have power at the moment because of our fascism regime in Iran ,if Iranian people had power at the moment then be sure that they were in Israel to defend from Israelis ,just I want tell to Israelis that all Iranians are with you you are not alone although our fascism regime in Iran torture us at the moment
5. Yeshiva massacre
Philip ,   London, UK   (03.07.08)
Lets hope Israel gets it's PR right this time. It rarely does. Perhaps Israel should put the scenario to the world of what would happen if a Jew deliberately targeted a Muslim Madrassa (seminary) and Israel celebrated it the way the Palestinians had. There would be calls for Jihad worldwide. Of couse, no one would stand for Israel in the same way.
6. U(as)N
Sam ,   Jerusalem   (03.07.08)
UNITED(anti-semitic)NATIONS
7. Exploiting the dead.
Sean ,   Derry/Ireland   (03.07.08)
Why dont you show pictures of the dismembered gaza babies, that might garner some sympathy.
8. worthless PR
Marcel ,   Florida   (03.07.08)
all of this PR is worthless if faithless ,beggardly,cowardly leaders will not defeat their enemy but wait for good PR. You are more worried about what the corrupt nations think than what God has told you to do with the Palestinian's. Exodus 23;27-33. You seek the blessing of everyone and everything but Hashem. How insane you have become Israel because you have ignored the command of God. http://averyheavystone.blogspot.com/
9. sam in tehran
kobi ,   australia   (03.07.08)
thank you for your kind words. you are right about the iran government (who am I to tell you about what you experience every day!) - that the iranian regime is fascist. once you overthrow them and replace them with a democratic, secular government which does not finance murderers like hamas, hizbullah and islamic jihad, then there'll be peace. i hope. peace to you and those like you who oppose the iranian regime.
10. Uri ur Israel! Uri ur!
Harissa ,   Israel   (03.07.08)
It is about time we understand the power of media. Is not with one action but consecutive actions and perseverance. When we build a wall, when we close the gates... we are the nazis... Show the world the celebration of the killing, show the blood, show the cuted life of a 16 year old student of the Torah. Show until the last drop...Wake up Israel...this battle is not only yours...dont choose to be left alone.
11. The response - build in East Jerusalem
S Judah ,   London   (03.07.08)
The government should immediately approve massive building prolects in East Jerusalem and along the Ma'aleh Adumin corridor. That's a real response. Kick them where it really hurts.
12. Not the time for PR
Shimshon ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (03.07.08)
This is not the time for a PR campaign! It's time to act with force and to show them that tis won't pass by unpunished! http://www.shimshon9.com
13. Swedish media don`t publish!
Britt ,   Gothenburg Sweden   (03.07.08)
I have looked around in swedish web-sites, and as usual they don´t publish any negative stuff about the palistinians. About this massacre is you will just know that 8 israelies died when a man from the eastern suburbs to Jerusalem open fire, nothing about celebrations in Gaza. This is the pattern we always see, and we who follows the news from Israel is the only one who got to know the whole truth, it´s frustrating.
14. Wrong Type Of Agressive Campaign
emanon ,   USA   (03.07.08)
Terrorists only understand one tyupe of campaign: military. While it is admirable that Israel wants as many people in the owrkd to know what happened to these innocent students, what will showing the pictures accomplish? Not much, really. In fact, in the Arab world, this will only serve to encourage MORE physical aggression against Israel. No. I am not an overly aggressive person, but there is only one aggressive campaign these terrorists will understand: a massive military campaign to throw them out of power everywhere they exist.
15. Good
augustine e johnson ,   birmingham-usa   (03.07.08)
yes - the world needs to see israels enemies deeds =========augustine-usa.
16. Good. Let the World Be WITNESS to Our Slaughter
YS ,   Yehudah   (03.07.08)
Let it be seen in all its gore. Let them see.
17. Pictures
Elianah   (03.07.08)
Plastering pictures of dead and wounded everywhere is what our enemies do. Showing pictures of the dead is against Jewish law out of respect for the dead. With that in mind, why are we sending pictures of blood and destruction all over the world before we've even had a day to mourn and before the victims have even been buried?
18. only one solution
joseph ,   Israel   (03.07.08)
Pictures of bloody talit and Jewish books will only make Israel's enemy and encourage them There is one solution. Rebuild Homesh, Sanur, Ganim, Kadim and the villages of Gaza.
19. They ignored 6 million. What's another 8?
LEE ,   NY, USA   (03.07.08)
20. One Picture Speaks Louder Than 1000 Words
YS ,   Eretz Yisrael   (03.07.08)
Let the images seep into the mass unconsciousness of the world. Let their consciousness begin to twinge. Let history come alive - every progrom, every burning, every murder, every blood libel, every act of torture - let it NOW come alive for them.
21. That's MY Blood in Those Pictures
JSherri ,   Israel   (03.07.08)
and that's the blood of every single Jew on earth. That is US. Now it's time that the world witness our suffering. Full front.
22. did israel had it coming?
Henry Ling ,   L.A. US   (03.07.08)
Honestly, I think this project is a bit over the top. For every small, non-lethal 'missile' (mostly inaccurate and non-lethal) some moron in Gaza fires off, Israel kills the equivalent of 4 families in Gaza. Yet, their body parts and bloody cloths don't get to go on a word tour. I am not a fan of the Arabs, nor do I hate Isarelis, since I have had positive experiences working in Haifa, but I believe Israel had been applying disproportionate force over the last few weeks and (forgive me for saying it in such a blunt way) had this kind of act of terrorism coming. I do feel sorry for the relatives of the students who lost their lives BTW.
23. Massacre images
Chrisona ,   Chicago.IL   (03.07.08)
This is a valid tactic. I would only suggest that photos of Palestinians celebrating the massacre be included in the exhibit.
24. SHOW away
USA ,   USA   (03.07.08)
but the GAzas will show their photos of the babies the IDF killed last week, and the homes you demolished and the toddlers you blew up. tit for tat and I bet the photos are worse of the PALESTINIANS. so good luck trying to capitalize on this awful event. it may backfire a little.
25. to #22
Ruven ,   Haifa, Bolder CO.   (03.07.08)
you wrote: "Israel kills the equivalent of 4 families in Gaza..." 4 families of terrorists run by terrorists who have no respect for human life for they use their very own families as human shields. Killers who hide behind the skirts of woman and the innocence of little children!!!! There is never been one time when Israel has gone into a civilian area with the intent to kills civilians!! Furthermore, the IDF have sacrificed their own time and time again to prevent it. From pizza parlors to the bus to a place of worship to Passover Seder are the targets of those who wish to slaughter Jews where they know the impact will be to their alter of virgins. You should be ashamed. This is not a matter of an eye sir and you know it. Those who count, count with one eye closed. Those who do not use capital 'I' when writing the word Israel show their true selves.
26. I agree with #22
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.07.08)
We should be more even handed in our responses. For EVERY rocket missile or mortar fired into Israel from the terrorist areas, we should fire one rocket into Gaza City, using the same level of guidance and accuracy as the qassams and grads
27. about time
rafi   (03.07.08)
should of done it for all the attacks
28. #20
boris ,   nyc, ny   (03.07.08)
no amount of pictures will speak for jews, did you fogot 2000 year history, ever heard of anti-semitism? accordin your twisted government logic the more jews killed the better PR, only solution is to remove all arabs(no such thing as palestinians) from territory of israel, including gaza, judea and samaria.
29. Let the world see
Tony ,   Dublin, Ireland   (03.08.08)
Show the shocking images and let the world see the savagery Israel faces on a continual basis. Let the world see the holy books with blood and bullet holes that the victims were studying when they were shot. I just saw some of the images on SKY news and images of the funerals of the eight students who were killed and it was heart breaking to see. My prayers and thoughts go out to all who died in this massacre and my condolences to their families and friends and to the students who were injured in the attack too.
30. TO TERRY # 2
Mike Cato ,   USA   (03.08.08)
A GREAT LETTER. YOU SAID IT ALL, TERRY.Thank you.
