1. ahmed powers: yeah baby yeah
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (08.18.08)
what a loser. i'm sure he got some REALLY valuable information about israel for egypt, like how to get cheap vegetables from the market on friday afternoon.
2. egyptian ambasador
sad ,   israel   (08.18.08)
he even requested from Rabin to ask for his stay to be extended so that he could undergo open-heart surgery HERE and NOT in Egypt. What a disgusting person. I hope the present ambassador (if there is one anyone) gets treated like dirt.
3. Rabbi Ovadia Yosef a weird guy?
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (08.18.08)
Much as I dislike Shas, would anyone care to compare him with many Muslim clerics who preach hate, intolerence, incite to violence, praise suicide bombers, defend chopping off heads & hands, stoning adulterers, make anti-Semitic sermons, preach global jihad against non-believers, call for the death penalty for gays, the murder of apostates, an end to freedom of speech, praise wife-beating, & a host of other nasty views? Talk about weird .....
4. what our Ovadia weird ?
Simon ,   TA the free city   (08.18.08)
Maybe he got him mixed up with some other Ayatollah , easily done, you know the flowing robes , the purple glasses the strange hat, talks utter nonsense , its an easy mistake.
5. 3 - Agreed but for the average guy
(08.18.08)
Rav Yosef is weird. I would say his hugely expensive clothes alone separate him from the rest of the world never mind an Egyptian.
6. Bassiouni as prototypical Arab
jerry ,   New York, USA   (08.18.08)
Bassiouni is no different than the Palestinians who love to hate Israel until Israel rejects them. Then they seek Israeli identity cards to continue their connection with the liberal democracy that offers more than their own culture can manage. Bassiouni thus preserves his image of being anti-Israel, while retaining the most pleasant memories of his life as ambassador. The "minty" flavor of Israel experienced by Bassiouni belies Israel's reputation as a garden (or Middle East) nuisance. In short, he loved being in Israel.
7. No. 5
(08.18.08)
What about the outfits worn by the Pope? I guess the Catholics living in impoverished countries should be up in arms over the cost of the papal garments.
8. #7 ,#5 is gay and he's just pissed of cause God and rabbis
give him a pass on ,   his lifestyle.   (08.18.08)
9. Yosef Looks Like Jerry Garcia
Bill   (08.19.08)
with the colored sunglasses and the long white beard.
10. No. 5. Shas unashamedly take money
(08.19.08)
from anyone to ensure the continuance of a good lifestyle in the form of houses, clothes, cars and so on. Catholics the same but what do you expect. Jews should know better.
11. # 8 No, not gay, married with 5 kids.
(08.19.08)
12. #11 5 kids might make any sane person crazy
