1. To Commander Harel: "Thank You Sir!"
Ami Israel ,   Jerusalem   (04.26.08)
May the G-d of Israel gently receive your soul with the same lovingkindness you showed those Jews whom you brought home to Israel. May your family be comforted in the knowledge that your actions on behalf of your suffering brethern were great indeed! To all who had a hand in settling Jews in the land after the horrors of World War II Europe...May you be blessed by the Almighty!

3. British iniquity
leon ,   Grand Rapids USA   (04.26.08)
At least the Germans have acknowledged their crimes, and some have apologized. The British have done neither.Instead, they organize boycotts and other Jew-hating activities.
4. thank you...I am so proud that you were a Jew
truth strikes again   (04.26.08)
peace to all who loved you, especially your family...i wish we had a leader like you today...
5. May his soul rest in peace
Sheila ,   Jerusalem Israel   (04.26.08)
As a people we owe our existence to great people such as Commander Harel. We should never let their incredible bravery be taken for granted but rather hold it up as an example to a generation which takes this country's existence for granted
6. And what about the USA?
Sheila ,   Jerusalem Israel   (04.26.08)
I accept that the Brits tried to keep the Arabs quiet by keeping a quota of Jews allowed to come to Israel - 15,000 per annum but that is 15 times the number the USA allowed into the States during the War!!!! Unwilling to extend aid and increase the quota Jews who fled Europe to the USA were sent back to Europe!!!! Incidentally - yes there are very badly informed Brits who are trying to boycott Israel and it distresses me, but what about the Hate Fests on US campuses whereby students organise festival of hate against Jews in the name of free speech. I think the expression is "people in greenhouses"!

A great man and must always be remembered.As was then when the anti semetic Britsh bore no responsibility they to-day continue the filty policy's and still want to kill jews.Fortunately the british are now a bunch of broken half nation of Islam

Honour and respect to Yossi Harel
9. Man among Men
gliker ,   Israel/TX   (04.26.08)
Another loss for our people. His actions are the epitome of the State of Israel.
10. A true hero - RIP
Adam ,   Ramat-Gan   (04.26.08)
11. Harel a GIFT from G-D
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (04.26.08)
For 4,000 years Jews have had a continuous presence in Israel whilst other Jews were scattered around the world. Hero Harel served the living G-D and Jews. Harel and the Exodus will never be forgotten! G-D continues to fulfill His promise given thousands of years ago: Thus says the L-RD G-D, "Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land... Ezekiel 37 G-D's enemies make war against Israel - G-D will give great , eternal victory to Israel one future glorious day! Israel will be a light to the nations forever!
12. #1 Amen. Yehi Zichro Baruch Lanetzach!
