1. If anyone had any doubts about the astuteness of artists
m   (02.09.09)
I don't need to write more, this article is enough proof. All the brain activity occurs in a very tiny part --the artistic one.
2. future with communists?
fish israel   (02.09.09)
This is the biggest joke of this election.
3. Article fails to note Hadash is Israel's *Communist* Party
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, DC USA   (02.09.09)
But they're in favor of the environment and "coexistence", so the rest doesn't matter. Good thing I don't take my political guidance from "artists". BTW, Mohammad Bakri is the Palestinian director of the libelous propaganda film, "Jenin Jenin".
4. My answer: "Vote Lieberman!"
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (02.09.09)
These so called "artists" are using classical Muslim double talk and sweet lips calling for "Peace" etc. while they mourn on Israel's Independence day (calling it "Nakbah"), publishing new blood libels with any occasion,bashing Israel with every ocasion (using lies and fabrications of course), calling Israel "apartheid", fraternizing with the most bloodthirsty enemies of Israel and acting to change the Jewishness of Israel (which is a Jewish State) and wipe us off the map either politically, or violently (preferably both). Their sweet talk does not work anymore. Israelis are fed up with Muslim words. Since October 2000 we are only reacting to ACTIONS, and their actions say plenty about their insidous plans for the destruction of Israel. So for now I'll pass: I won't vote for Hadash. My vote will go to a party which will make sure that these malicious plans fail.
5. If Israeli artists did voice an opinion...
William ,   Israel   (02.09.09)
one would hope it would be for a more centrist party with a desire for fairness and not an Arab party which has shown themselves to be anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, and in support of Israel's enemies. It's not surprising that Arab artists support Hadash, most of the world's artists live in a fantasy land outside of reality. And as #3 mentioned, Bakri is one of the most notorious Pal Directors and Actors who constantly show Jews as blood-thirsty aggressors and Pals as poor, naive victims. The only difference between him and Pallywood is the Israelis FUND him.
6. A nation is a historical heritage - not a "project" or
Alexander ,   Herzliya, Israel   (02.10.09)
..cultural entertainment like occasion. People that don't take Israel seriously and do not share our values must leave. That includes those 250 Arab artists that are disloyal to Israel. So Arabs having 22 Arabs states with an ARAB identity is their "human right" but Jews having ONE ETHNIC ISRAELITE/JEWISH nation state is suddenly "racist"? This clearly shows how biased and racist the Israeli Arabs are! Jews would get killed for questioning the Arab identity of Arab countries. I say: expel Arabs from Israel! Now!
7. Thanks for nothing you messianic peaceniks! http://www.iris.

http://www.iris.org.il/katyusha.htm please vote RIGHT OF CENTER. These guys gave us rockets in the South. You want them at the airport and in Tel Aviv, too? http://www.iris.org.il/katyusha.htm
8. The Communists' platform summarized
Jake   (02.10.09)
All pigs must fly, like birds. If pigs will not fly, for the sake of equality, the wings of all birds must be clipped.
9. The Right Will Destroy Zionism...
David ,   Los Angeles   (02.11.09)
and Hadash will be what is left in the end. On a good day, if we're lucky. Thanks Bibi (the lying sleazeball) thanks Lieberman (the child abuser), and thanks to all the cowards like Barak.
10. to Alexander
Hannane ,   Paris   (02.11.09)
I hope you'l find peace in your heart. Hate is not the solution.
