1. G-d giveth and the anti-semitic gov't takes it away
Leah ,   Haifa ISRAEL   (12.04.08)
For this they will burn in hell - if not sooner. Where is King David? What would he say?
2. Time to Leave
Debbie ,   Israel   (12.04.08)
I think it's time that the Leftists admit that they don't like living in this country, that they feel no connection to it anymore, that they'd much rather be in Australia where the populace loves ex-Israelis. Their sons and daughters won't have to fight in the army, they can live in true peace. Why don't you all start your own settlement in Brisbane? I think you'd be a lot happier there. Seriously. Leave Israel for people who truly love every inch of this land.
3. Daniela Weis, you ain't no friend of mine

5. Why don't you discuss the legal status of the property?
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (12.04.08)
Why not discuss the logic of evicting people from a property of undetermined status? Why not discuss the immoral abuse of the IDF for purely political motivations? Don't you think that it is undermining the authority of the State to use the IDF for political motivations? Have you asked yourself why there is such an urgent need to evict them before a court determines the legal ownership of the property? Could it possibly be because elections are approaching? Have you wondered why there is such disrespect for authority when the best example of disrespect for the State is the sitting PM? Could it be because you're a hypocrite?
6. #5 TERRY EILAT CORRECT
DAVID ,   HASMONAIM   (12.04.08)
7. Thank you Daniela Weiss, we won't forget it
A Jew ,   on OUR occupied teri   (12.04.08)
8. Logic dictates the response required
Nissan ,   Europe   (12.04.08)
There is a simple answer to this. This is Palestinian Territory the LAw of the Palestinian Authority should prevail. Remove the Israeli Security Forces and let the PA enfosrce the law of the land and in doing so also international law. The dispute will be resolved by dusk and the settlers will learn the lesson that they have earned a thousand time over. Not a single Israeli Soldier harmed.

14. #5 Agree with Terry - Hypocrisy
(12.04.08)
15. The District Psychiatrist
Michael ,   Haifa   (12.04.08)
Ms. Weiss, who is dangerous to others and to herself, should be committed by the District Psychiatrist to the "closed ward" of a lunatic asylum.
16. #9 - #13
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (12.04.08)
You're actually quite funny and maybe you should take your show to the streets. It's hard to riot or go after those who do while you're laughing off your a--.
17. Gentle?! Did u see the number of stones on the roof?!
(12.04.08)
Did you see the large amounts of glass?! Did you see the fast action of the IDF!!!! We are gentle and human!!! We don't insult soldiers of the IDF!!! We don't hurl stones at soldiers of the IDF!!!!! This woman singlehandedly along with her ruffians has begun the downfall of the settler movement!!!! She is nothing but a pariah!!!!! BeGone!!!!
18. #1 What Would King David Say?
Lawrence Tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.04.08)
"Life's not worth a damn 'til you can say I am what I am"....
19. a prison cell awaits Daniela Weiss
Avi ,   Ramat Gan   (12.04.08)
and lets hope this time they throw away the key, at the very least give her the help this mentally unstable women needs.
20. What exactly has this writer done for Israel?
rebecca ,   modiin   (12.04.08)
bubkas. Thank you Daniella for doing SOMETHING for Eretz Israel.
21. # 16 Why Thank You M.Hartley
Lawrence Tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.04.08)
Donations always gratefully accepted (joke),living here demands a sense of humour in order not to go under,best wishes.
22. Daniela Weiss
Ellen Minaker ,   NY & Netanya, Israel   (12.04.08)
Ms. Hoffman denies the Jewish connection to Israel, to Hebron and to Yesha in her castigation of Ms. Weiss. Israel is a land of immigrants--yet Ms. Hoffman bemoans that some of the right wing are foreign born. Does she also wax negative on left wing foreign born? Is her family tree one that has been in Israel for hundreds of years.? Israel was formed in 1948 with the blood sweat and tears of those who knew what they had to do. Isael will continue the same way. As the world seeks to eliminate us--(see Durban II and India) the Daniela Weiss's of the world are working for our survival. They are NOT looking to win a world popularity contest by being politically correct.
23. EH....MACARENA
Lawrence Tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.04.08)
THAT'S what King David would say.
24. thank Hashem for Daniella Weiss
Michael ,   usa   (12.04.08)
the leftist idiot who penned this article should be thankful that not all Israeli Jews are leftist cowards.
25. Daniella and the rest of the Jewish People who fight
Shira ,   NYB"H YERUSHALAYIM   (12.04.08)
ARE THE HEROES OF THE LAND OF ISRAEL. What the hell is wrong with all of you? We need more of Daniella and passionate settlers like the ones who fight and fight hard to keep what is ours. If there were more of them out there and less leftists and selfhating jews/israelis, we would have ALL the Land of Israel which belongs to US which Gd gave us not to the world or the MuSlimes. You leftists and self hating jews/israelis are the real unstable kookoos who have a death wish....Giving up on Jewish property and giving it to murderous MuSlimes will only get you killed. When will you learn? I guess you don't remember Gush Katif...I didn't expect you to. "Those who are kind to the evil will be cruel to the kind"-----This is what the Israeli government is.
26. A good advice!!!!!
Sua ,   Gaza   (12.04.08)
they want to stay in Hebron !!!!! let it be. Give the town to the palestinian Authority and as a bonus all the settlers with it.
27. Ariela - You Rosh Katan!
Shlomo Silverstein ,   Maale Adumim   (12.04.08)
You are a Rosh Katan. If you had any independant thought in your body you would realise that our government is totally corrupt and is not acting in Israel's and the Jewish people's best wishes. They send orders to our army and police that are totally immoral. Zionism is not about holding up corrupt governments and judges, it is about doing what's best for the Jewish people. Think about it!
28. RE#1: "For this they will burn in hell".
Jake   (12.04.08)
This is an innovation I had not heard of before in Judaism. I was not aware that Dante's Inferno had been canonized as part of the Tanach.
29. Daniela Weis is like the 'Palin' effect
lydia ,   Brisbane   (12.05.08)
Her stamp is guaranteed to turn the stomach of the moderates. guaranteed to sabotage her 'cause' and guarantees that her losing is no loner and option but a certainty. Talk Peace.
30. Daniella Weiss
Jeff ,   Philadelphia, USA   (12.05.08)
Ms Weiss shows courage and love for all the land of Israel. I applaud her actions. Olmert and Barak chose to bring on a confrontation. If the Peace House title is under dispute, let it be decided in district court... not by evicting Jews from their home.
