31. Terry from Chicago -- what are Israelis doing to Gazans?
AK   (12.26.08)
gazans shoot rockets into israel and israeli idiotic govt gives them free water, electricity money, help. Gee, such a bad people those Jews -- they just won't open their border so the Arab terrorists have an easy time setting bombs on Israeli busses. Such a uncooperative people those Jews are -- too slow committing national suicide. Terry, dear, get a brain.

Terry, Jews have been in Yemen 2,000 years give or take. Just how long do they have to be there according to you before they are no longer foreigners? If you are threatened, the police will hopefully go after those threatening you, not lock you up in your own home for "protection." Now do you get it?
33. The Yemen president may mean well
(12.27.08)
by concentrating the Jews in one area where they can be defended. What is incomprehensible is why Jews should wish to live this way, when there is an alternative of leaving. What kind of life can they have in Yemen and what kind of future will their children have? This is only an extreme example of the familiar scenario in which Jews prefer to live in countries where they are hated. Inexplicable.

#26 Gee and I suppose most of the Palestinians in the Gaza strip got locked and imprisoned and quarantined because they didn't pay their bills. "Or better yet, let them leave. Most of them...Mothers, working fathers, children with no defense. My take on this is the timing. You see it's a political pas du dous' They are saying, "we just caught onto the game plan for the Palestinians in Gaza......and Israel you are getting very close to accomplishing a 'plan that was set in stone' since the early 90's. That plan was to strategically wall the Palestinians into areas of annihilation without taking lives of the Jewish. Nearly accomplished , woulnd't you say; and recent talk of ground war against them. God forbid the spilling of innocent blood...no matter the race. Wonder what motivation the Yemen govt. has? Is everyone gone crazy. It's not the poor jews. It's a world gone mad, using humans as fodder and chattle and for gain, and to satisfy hatred in the heart.
35. #27, Hinda, you are dellusional
Ynet reader ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.27.08)
The majority of airlifts were made to create a population in Israel because they had virtually 0 population on Palestinian land. And this is no Ghetto! People can chose to live there and they are getting $10,000 for moving there. It's sad to see how ignorant and intolerable Israelis have become over the years - Now I understand why they call each other Nazis.
36. Jewish Ghetto In Yemen
Walter ,   Beverly Hills, USA   (12.27.08)
Anybody remember the Warsaw Ghetto? Isolating a people is a great way to control them and to starve them and to kill them. The Jews remember this well, I hope.
37. Yemen to build ghetto for Jews
Al Barrs ,   Greenwood, USA   (12.27.08)
'PLAY IT AGAIN SAM!' We have seen this before, in Germany. Then the Jews were rounded up and put in concentration camps and then into the gas houses and then into the Nazi ovens.
38. #15 Poor IDIOTANN,never been to gaza,never talked to gazans,
would be shot if she ,   came2gaza-COME NOW.   (12.27.08)
39. Israel is for Jews
Abidan ,   Batesville, AR, USA   (12.27.08)
Israel is for Jews. You're either one of us, or you're simply a foreigner passing through. G-d gave Eretz Israel to us - that's the truth, no matter if you choose to acknowledge. (Unbelief has no effect on the actions of G-d) That's why we all should work toward making aliyah and helping those who can't do it on their own... we need to go home, do a bit of cleaning up of our own, and ensure the perpetual safety and security of our people.
40. Boy are they tough in Yemen ...
Moriah ,   sacramento, CA   (12.29.08)
Kill a Jew -- get a medical checkup! Wow.. Plus now it will be easier than roundfing up and killing Jews. The practitioners of the religion of peece can just go to the ghetto and all the Jews will be there. How convenient and considerate of the Prez.
41. To No39
Roy ,   UK   (12.29.08)
Why can't you spell GOD will he smit you?
42. Yemeni People are the best.
Maged ,   Yemen-USA   (01.11.09)
Jews have been living in our lands for many centuries. They lived with us Yemenies and still live until today. Yemeni People are good Muslims. They respect others. True there are some Crazy ALqaida people. We are sorry for the incident to this Jewish Yemeni.. I hope you Israelies are sorry for our brothers and sisters being killed in Palestine with your Israili army. THE YEMENI MUSLIM PRESIDENT PROTECTS JEWISH PEOPLE.. BUT THE ISRAELIE PRESIDENT KILLS MUSLIMS IN PALESTINE.. YOU SHOULD BED ASHAMED OF YOUR SELFS ANS STOP BEING SO IGNORANT.
43. YEMENIES HAVE BEEN LIVING WITH JEWS
MAGED ,   YEMEN-USA   (01.11.09)
YEMEN IS A CONSERVATIVE MUSLIM SOCIETY AND RESPECTS ALL PEOPLE. JEWS HAVE BEEN LIVING IN YEMEN FOR AGES.. SO THIS INCIDENT IS VERY VERY RARE.. MY PARENTS REMEMBER LIVING WITH JEWISH FAMILIES AND THEY ARE JUST PEOPLE LIKE US.. US YEMENIES ARE GOOD MUSLIMS AND PROTECT THOSE PEOPLE ALL THROGH THE AGES.. WHERE THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT IS KILLLING OUR BROHTERS AND SISTERS IN PALESTINE AND TAKES THIER LAND AND SO ON...... THOSE JEWS HAVE THE OPTION TO LIVE IN ISREAIL BUT I THINK THEY DO NOT WANT TO BASE THIER HAPPINESS OVER STOLEN LAND OF PALESTINE.. THEY STILL HAVE SOME YEMENI MUSLIM VALUES.. THAT IS ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS US YEMENIES RESPECT OUR YEMENI JEWS..
44. HOW IGNORANT ARE YOU
MAGED ,   Yemen-USA   (01.11.09)
IF YEMENIES WANTED TO KILL JEWS THEY WOULD HAVE WIPPED THEM OUT. BUT OUR RELIGIOUN AND THE WAY WE ARE RAISED TELLS US TO LIVE WITH JEWS.. THAT IS WHY THEY STILL LIVE IN YEMEN... JEWS HAVE NEVER BEEEN BOTHERED IN YEMEN AND THIS IS JUST AN INCIDENT.. TRUST ME.. IF YEMENIES PEOPLE WANT TO KILL JEWS.. YOU WONT STOP THEM.. BUT THOSE JEWS ARE CITIZENS OF THE COUNTRY AND WE HAVE GOOD RELATIONSHIPS WITH THEM...YEMEN AND YEMENIES ARE VRY GOOD MUSLIMS AND PEACEFULL BECAUSE THEY FOLLOW ISLAM.. THIS INCIDENT IS VERY SAD BUT THERE IS ALWAYS ODD THINKERS AND CURRUPTERS IN EVERY PLACE.. YOU KNOW THE PROBLEM IS WHEN A GOVERNMENT IS KILLING THE PEOPLE LIKE ISRAEL..
