31. Majority of arab students care less..
Rami ,   Nazareth, Israel   (05.15.08)
This protest is politically motivated. Majority of israeli-arab students are there to study, not use every opportunity to protest and raise the irrelivant palestinian flag. I do not think it made much difference to them whether Student Day was held on may 15 or any other day
32. Can Jewish students in an Islamic country celebrate Israel's
independence day?!   (05.15.08)
The leftists turned Israel into a hell that breeds its own destroyers. Arab Israelis should never be allowed to announce their hatred of Israel. no country would allow this. If they hate Israel today, tomorrow they will destsroy it from within, meaning as soon as other Arabs in Israel's neighboring countries order them to. In Arabic countries they didn't let even one Jew to stay but Israel is letting these people to destroy it. Nakba is the day that Palestinians and all over Arab world mourns the fact that they were not able to kill all Jews and throw them into the sea. May they mourn this failure forever.
33. Happy Nakba Day

34. Why are these Arab students enrolled at all
Mordechai   (05.15.08)
If they consider the establishment of Israel of which they are a citizen of a tragedy then they should boycott zionist institutions like Tel Aviv University. I thin the school should enforce a boycott against it by Arab students and expel them all.
35. If the Israeli Arabs celebrate
Haim   (05.15.08)
Independence Day with us, we will celebrate the naqba day with them
36. Why Don't They Attend Birzeit U.?
(05.15.08)
I imagine the students at TAU will acknowledge Nakba day when the Hamas government bows its heads on Yom Hashoa.
37. Nakba Day?
m.dona ,   Bs. Aires, Argentina   (05.16.08)
Several questions to Noa Levy: 1. How many jewish populations were left in Arab land (including present Jordan) since 1948? 2. How many jews could live in Transjordan before 1948? 3. In every land partition between different ethnias, normally there happen massive people movements. So why do you not let the arabs feel sorry for their Nakba Day in territories that are favourable to their afflictions instead of doing so in a country that respect them indeed as citizens but does not share their feelings that go against the very existence of the State of Israel? Is this so difficult to understand? 4. And last, why do you not try, Noa Levy, to apply to an Arab University as a jew and see what happens? Remember that the best understood charity begins by our own home.
38. only in israel?
emily ,   United States   (05.16.08)
what would happen if native americans wanted to commemorate their expulsion form the land in the united states?
