1. WE WILL PERFORM THE STANFORD PLAY AT THEM - MOONING AT THEM
YITZAK BEN SHLOMO   (04.08.08)
WHEN THEY ARRIVE :- )))))))
2. Send 'em here to the Judean hills...
JPS ,   Efrat   (04.08.08)
Don't worry, the Peoples' Front of Judea won't moon them. Neither will the Judean Peoples' Front. But no choppers. Let's drive them out Hwy 60 towards Hebron, so they can see the Palestinian cars that share the roads with us "settlers". And they should turn off on lots of side highways too and see the Pal cars there. At least that lie might be put to rest. And yea, show them the ugly wall that we don't either. Then I'm happy to introduce them to survivors of suicide bombings... And take them to beaches frequented by Arabs, and make them look for the apartheid signs. And go on buses to look for the aparheid signs. And go to Haifa U and Hebrew U and look for the "no Arabs allowed" signs. Gosh, they don't exist! Then maybe they'll burn Jimmy Carter's book that has done nothing but incite hatred.
3. THE SELF LOATHING SCUM TOUR!
Semper Fi! ,   San Diego, USA   (04.08.08)
I don't understand: you deny the entry in Israel to the proarab scumbag Richard Falk, and you let or invite a group of filthy antiamerican, antijews and Israel selfloathing islamofascism sympathizers. Wise up!!!! This trash like Moveon.com and Daily Kos are managed, you won''t believe it, by Jews, yes the ones supporting Hussein Obama, and the article indicates this socalled progressive left, is a 5th column, a bunch of traitors, that will sell out their country or Israel for nothing. No just mooning them is not a solution, don't let those traitors dirt the ground of the country and handle them out to the barbarians that surround Israel.
4. Kos to visit Israel
Ger ,   Raanana, Israel`   (04.08.08)
What an utterly preposterous waste of time and money. Does anyone really believe these people will come here with open minds? Who's next on the list---Reverend Wright? David Irving?
5. do they have permission to drive on roads to settlements?
observer   (04.08.08)
I've almost forgotten!; they are air-born.
6. VISIT MAY HINDER PRACTICE OF ARM-CHAIR POLITICS FROM ABROAD
david p ,   usa   (04.08.08)
This visit will be devastating to those who live on the KOS relying on knee jerk liberal cliches and CNN, FOX, BBC, REUTERS, and AL JAZEERA for their impartial facts and opinions. Applied practical experience is not what motivates these people, they're running the risk of enlightenment by exposing them to real world activities.
7. The PaLIEs wouldn't dare fire kassams on their biggest allie
moonbat warning   (04.08.08)
the KOSsacs are comming!
8. Israel is getting crazier by the day
M ,   toronto   (04.08.08)
Just today I read that the Kos said Hitler was a Zionist!? Great visitors. Well what can one expect from Israelis people who have no idea of what's going in the world. Any enemy who comes is welcomed.
9. everyone visits sderot--no one ever stays.
debra ,   usa   (04.08.08)
10. Just Spies
Norm ,   USA   (04.08.08)
Looking for your weak spots.
11. oooh! progressives! press is all excited!
GH   (04.08.08)
hey, some progressives! let's give them lots of press, after all... they are our people!
12. Who is next?
James ,   US   (04.08.08)
Why won't Israel invite the Jew Haters from Rawstory.com?
13. Daily Kos in Sderot
Kate ,   USA   (04.08.08)
The "progressives" who will come to Israel for this tour do not want to see the truth of the Hamas attacks on Sderot. They do not want to see the truth of the pre-'67 borders. They do not want to see the truth of Israel's withdrawal from Gaza. They will not see and they will not hear anything contrary to what they already believe. The only words that will penetrate their already tightly closed minds are Saeb Erekat's words, and Saeb Erekat's words will only reinforce what the visitors already believe.
14. Kos immik
Yosi ,   Canada   (04.09.08)
15. A Joke?
3Foot Lizard ,   phoenix AZ   (04.09.08)
Waste of time. They will never support Isarel
16. From a former Daily Kos blogger
eileen fleming ,   Florida, USA   (04.09.08)
The Daily Kos is NOT "critical of Israeli policies" In fact, the Daily Kos banned me and many others who spoke up for equal human rights for Palestinians. I have been to Israel Palestine five times since June 2005, so I know what I am writing about. You can read all about my banning from the Daily Kos through my home page.

17. WHY TO GIVE THIS MORON THIS HONOR..WE DON'T CARE ABOUT HIM
(04.09.08)
18. Expand the tour
Tim Osman ,   hartford, USA   (04.09.08)
Why not take the phloggers to the giant outdoor prison in Gaza?
19. Israel enjoys relatively balanced coverage?
Moise   (04.09.08)
You mean an inconditional support in the "brainless" American mainstream media. BTW how much bribery moneys is the Zionist entity willing to pay to gain the blogger's support?
20. tikkun olam
Ypip ,   Canada   (04.09.08)
isn't simple, nor is it a theory.
21. It Would Be Great If ....
Christy ,   Boston, MA   (04.09.08)
.. these people came here with a willingness to learn and discover new things. This is what a great outcome would be. I wish I could believe such an outcome possible, but reading some of these bloggers screeds leads me to conclude the bloggers Will not change their minds. Still could try try. I've seen bloggers like this get into entrenched positions that no amount of facts to the contrary could move them from. Their political leanings resemble a religion more than anything else. In their religion, Israel is ALWAYS the agressor and the Palis. are ALWAYS the victims. Of course, it goes without saying that the US ranks up there with 'the great Satan'.
22. Kos.... Anti-Israel??
Richard ,   Charlotte, USA   (04.09.08)
You simply have to be kidding. You must have never visited KOS. The ADL is very much live and well on KOS. Sorry, but I just can't feel much sympathy for Israel. I can for many of the good citizens there who strive and work for justice and humanity. And the recognition that Israel has committed horrendous atrocities far in excess to anything done by the Palestinians. But the policies of the government? The behavior of the government? Despicable and the irony that the folks who suffered in WWII behave this way now. If I were a Jew I would not feel particularly proud about Israel as a nation. And many many Jews do not. Kudos to them. They appear to exemplify the sense of Justice Jews have been known for. But not Israel.
23. American/Jewish democrat generally "usefull idiot"
Tomas   (04.09.08)
A good American/Jewish Democrat a la Mr. Forman is a "usefull idiot" for the left. Most of the progresive left worldwide only love death Jews. A jew who will defend himself is hated by the progressive forces.
24. Gee #16 I'm so sorry Ellen...
shmulke ,   w coast, USA   (04.09.08)
...that you were too much of a nutball for the nutballs. My deepest sympathy. BTW WAWA is a great name for your organization. As in "WAAA! WAAA! How dare those evil Zionists shoot back at us when we fire our rockets of peace!" You'd be laughable if not for being so one-sidedly venomous.
25. Kos, Obama's base of support wants Israel destroyed
Dr. Dave ,   NYC   (04.09.08)
These far far left wackos want to see America & Israel destroyed. PERIOD.
26. Tour
LEE ,   Canada   (04.09.08)
Hey how about a trip in an F-18 on a bombing run over Gaza? Or how about some fun turning the power on and off. Their can be no justification for ethnic cleansing. How many more do you people need to kill until you are even?
27. Why don't you give the money to Holocaust survivors instead
Carrie ,   NYC   (04.09.08)
why are you inviting Israel/Jew hating so-called "progressives" instead of supporting elderly people who fought for the state?
28. How can this be bad?
Noah ,   New York, NY   (04.09.08)
There's everything to gain and nothing to lose by inviting them. It could definitely change their opinions. Why are so many of you so vehement in your hatred for them and disdain for this trip? If they're fortunate enough to avoid running into whack jobs like you, then maybe we'll get some good press out of this.
29. Ban them! Don't allow this anti-Israel group to enter Israel
MIRIAM ,   ISRAEL   (04.09.08)
30. Tripping on lies
Katz Freeman ,   NYC USA   (04.09.08)
The Kos has no cred, in the blogosphere, and this trip will cement his lack thereof. Israel is no longer viewed as a decent place to go, and anyone who goes there is viewed as a fascist war monger. So sorry for the demise of that state, but such is life, when you commit war crimes and crimes against humanity. Cry me a river, but keep away from hiding in my skirts, as those who do such things are not Jews. War criminals should not attempt to hide behind decent Jewish people, anymore. Keep the trip to Israel, the meet with Olmert and all the attempted lies.
