61. Vatican foreign minister
baruch ,   Israel   (01.08.09)
the greatest antisemites are found in the vatican
62. Cardinal Renato Martino
Irv Bressel ,   San Diego - USA   (01.08.09)
Cardinal Renato Martino does not acknowledge the fact that since 1948 the Palestinian Arabs in Gaza have lived in squalor with no attempt by Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Fattah , Hamas to emancipate and integrate them into their lands. The Arabs are using Gaza to alienate the world against Israel. There is no peace partner for Israel. Hamas is not concerned with Gazans. Their sole purpose is to destroy Israel
63. Vatican will be finished by Islam

How come now Vatican is so worried? What happen during II World War thay where not worried about the Jews, and now they want to snatified Pope Pios XII a jew hater ???? nothing is new since over 2000 years ago they would like us eliminated !!!
65. Those who work in the Vatican
Pete ,   Bat Yam   (01.08.09)
are experts in Nazism, the Vatican is teeming with ex-nazis whom they have hidden there and the Pope himself was a member of Hitler youth and served in the Luftwaffe!

Ed ,   Israel   (01.08.09)
During the Shoah when our people were being slaughtered Monasteries in Poland looted grave stones from Jewish cemeteries to be crushed because concrete was in short demand. The long driveways leading to their monasteries were in need of paving. Just one horror of many. We see deep hate never dies not even in 2009. It is just recycled.
67. To number48
Leah ,   Haifa   (01.08.09)
Many have come to admit Antisemitism is inherent. Tell me, how can a world take a victim and turn them into the victimizer, hence becoming the pariah of the world........while at the same time the real pariah's are coddled and embraced. Time we all admit Antisemitism is inherent.
68. Vatican Cardinal and Nazis
fotune khadjazadeh ,   new york, new york   (01.08.09)
To make a remark like this can mean only one thing -- the Cardinal is a Jew hater. Upon information and belief, just like the Pope, the Cardinal must also have once been a Nazi. The Cardinal should have known better because you can't compare Nazis to israelis. Only Hamas can be compared to Nazis with respect to its intentions -- to murder all Jews. Fortune Khadjazadeh, NYC
69. Supporting the so-called "Palestinian cause" is fashion item

70. comparison
karl ,   berlin   (01.08.09)

71. #10
Madeleine ,   Israel   (01.08.09)
Detained - by their own people - we left 3 years ago, remember?? Harsh conditions? Well of course, all the money donated by the misguided nations of the world has been used to build the tunnels, buy weapons, arms and generally to keep their people in misery. Not one improvement has been m ade for the people of Gaza since Israel left. So easy for people like you to pick up cliches and mouth them Go read some history books.
72. The same as the British
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.08.09)
The British reward the muslim bus murderers with boycott of Israel , the Vatican those who burn christian bookshops by condeming Israel . Israel where the christian can FREELY follow their faith .
73. No 10, Ray, how convenient, you
(01.08.09)
forgot to mention the keepers of this big concentration camp: H A M A S !!!
74. #71 #73
Ray ,   US   (01.08.09)
Israel never left Gaza - it controls every aspect of Palestinian life there. Food, water, fuel, medical supplies, people entering and leaving. You must be stupid to believe this not a concentration camp.
75. Ray , # 74 , why do we control it ?
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.08.09)
Why was there NO control for years ? will you allow would be suicide bombers into your country ? They can have enough food . The gush Katif settlements procured tons of food to Israel . What have the gazans done with the greenhouses ? Why should we allow our truckers in the crossings where they can be murdered by gazans ? And don't forget , where is Egypt ? they have a border with Gaza , no ?
76. #75
Ray ,   US   (01.08.09)
As you well know, Gaza has been under israeli control continuously since 1967. Despite withdrawal in 2005, they have total control over eveything and everyone who goes in and out. I am sure Palestinians would love to sell their produce to those outside, but israel does not allow this. Most Gazans do not want to live there, they were forcibly put there by israel after their land and property was taken in 1967. You seem to not know where egypt is - I am sorry for your ignorance - perhaps I can suggest that you check a map.
77. Peace
Mannstein ,   USA   (01.08.09)
will come when the US Government stops handing US taxpayer money to the tune of $5 billion a year with no strings attached to that Sh_ty little country in the Middle East..
78. Religion
Frances ,   Texas, USA   (01.09.09)
Religion, whether it is Christian, Jewish, or Muslim, is used to control people and by the posting here it is evidently not too difficult to brainwash people into these cults. Obviously, anyone who knows of the many "ghetto's" jews were kept in during WWII (there were many), it is quite clear they are doing just what was done to them. Time to stop tax money and sale of weapons. Even if they get them from somewhere else, at least the innocent bloodshed would not be on our hands.
