2. In this part of the world it is race that counts!!!
Asem ,   ME   (12.13.08)
like the middle ages you know. You can call it modified democracy or selective democracy. If you are lucky enough to be born a Jew your life will be totally diffrent than the one born 50 meters across the street to a non Jewish family.
3. The loyalty of the settlers.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.13.08)
Settlers are among the most devoted and patriotic citizens of the Jewish state, and their children command IDF fighting units out of proportion to their numbers. Unlike their most vocal detractors, many of whom regard the land as inconsequential plots of real estate, the settler community not only sees the land as sacred - as indeed it is - but inculcates its children with a profound commitment to the Jewish people. As to legitimacy and the rights of the settlers : http://xrl.us/bj5ng
4. #2 CAll yourself Israeli and have the benefits
Freejew ,   Israel   (12.13.08)
I know plenty of Isreali Arabs that make more than i do and live a much better life than most other Arabs in the middle east. You choose to call yourself a Palastinian, which calls for ISraels death, then you deserve nothing from Israel.! You are no more Palastinian then any other Jew or Christian living in this area! Quit the charade and show you want peace.
5. #2 You are wrong, Israel and Singapore equally a
YITZAK BEN SHLOMO ,   singapore   (12.13.08)
a multi- racial nation that is fair to all her people. I know Israel and I know Singapore. I speak up Jews a free everywhere other than in Muslim nations. i was born in Malaysia a Muslim nation. I was discriminated and my land taken away. Now I am a free man in Singapore. It is the ME that practices the modified or selective dramacrazy NOT ISRAEL PLEASE !
6. # 3 ROBERT NOT ONLY IN ISRAEL
Petra ,   USA   (12.13.08)
MANY OF US CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY ISRAEL DOES NOT KEEP THE LAND THAT IS HOLY TO HERSELF?
7. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.13.08)
the accuser is constantly before G-D in order to recount and seek retribution for the sins of people,and to demand judgment against them however when the person enumerates each and every one of his sins beforehand,he does not leave any pretext to the accuser to exploit and the accuser can not demand any judgment against him,for he always demands judgment first,and afterwards enumerates and accuses,therefore the person should take his own initiative before the accuser and enumerate his own sins as soon as the accuser sees this,he has no pretext to complain against him and then takes leave from him entirely.
8. Hevron.
David ,   USA   (12.13.08)
100% of people with Jewish nefesh consider Hevron 100% Jewish and 100% Holy.
9. It's all a matter of adjectives
Arielush ,   Ramat Ha Golan   (12.14.08)
Hebron is a part of our history. But that does not excuse the behavior of the settlers. You describe them as patriots. I see them as pathetic, bullying thugs. If we want a future, we must learn to live with our neighbors.
10. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.14.08)
three emerge from one,one exists in three,before jesus ascended to understanding,jesus is called a lad,and in the end,after jesus is crowned with the brain of understanding,jesus is called tzadik,jesus was fair on both sides,which are right and left,on two levels,which are wisdom and chassadim,above in understanding and below in male and female,for after jesus mediates between male and female jesus´brain of understanding is called holiness and JESUSALEN is called the complete kingdom of heaven.
11. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.15.08)
the holy spirit is speaking to this generation that jesus circumcised and in whom jesus revealed the holy imprint of the name of JESUSALEN,you are worthy to inherit the land,as is written your people also shall be all righteous they shall inherit the land forever (yeshayah 60:21) because everyone who is circumcised and in whom the holy marking has been revealed,and who observes it,is called tzadik,therefore you shall inherit the land forever,JESUSALEN brings down the supernal dweller,which is the divine presence,to the inhabitants of below,human beings.
12. The new Jewish ethic
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (12.15.08)
I have continually wondered how Israel has devolved into a non-apologetic racist state. This poll provides some answers. The acts of vengeance against innocent Palestinians were decried by only 52% percent of Jews while only 33% claimed such actions were antithetical to Judaism. Therefore, 48% of Jews either condoned or remained silent as to the actions of the Jewish mob. And 67% feel that the activities were NOT antithetical to Judaism. And among your youth 29% claimd that such a pogrom IS an important "value in Judaism'. So what exactly does this say about the 'light unto nations'? That the light is nothing more than a Jewish match in a sea of gasoline? You have taught your children well.
13. hevron
dr mostrel daniel ,   paris france   (12.15.08)
how can a jew said feeling nothing about Hevron? and for jerusalem?i think we 'll have the same answers David was king in Hevron before Jerusalem ;maarat hamachpela is so holy ;can we imagine it will be forbidden to go ther like to joseph 's tomb in shechem? the arab city can stay an arab city but we must keep our right to go to the machpela

Invicta ,   Europa   (12.15.08)
Also what is interesting is that the settlers 'resisted' eviction, yet when the palestinians resist eviction from their entire land they are rountinely branded as 'terrorists'. The double standards are so pernicious and blatant that it beggers belief. Israel, keep you US/EU sponsored patch of desert but forever you will be surrounded by enemies and the opinion of the world will forever condemn you.
15. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.15.08)
jesus the supernal king,splendor,is over yisrael and they connect with him therefore whoever enters these two,foundation and JESUSALEN,by means of circumcision and uncovering and guards them,is connected to two others,eternity and glory,and enters them,and then reaches jesus the holy king,which is splendor,the righteous,which is foundation,merits eternity and glory,because foundation includes eternity and glory and they´re three with which the congregation of yisrael,which is JESUSALEN,is blessed and merits also jesus the holy king,that is splendor,and attains all four emanations,splendor,eternity,glory, foundation and JESUSALEN.
16. What a shame
moriah ,   sacramento, calif   (12.15.08)
none of those who support Hebron are in the Israeli government or apparently in the police dept.
17. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.17.08)
jesus,blessed be he,is seen around the world,and this memory will never cease from yisrael for generations and generations,if not for the strength and power of jesus,blessed be he,none the kings odf the nations and all the sorcerers of the world´d be able to deliver yisrael from sin.
