Israel is a Jewish state. Repeat, Jewish. Despite all Christians efforts to the contrary for millennia, Jews are still here. Don't look to us to apologize to you for that. I have a better idea. If I don't like the views presented on a particular television station, I stop watching. In other words -- I vote with my feet (or remote control, at any rate). Why don't you vote with your feet, Christians? If you don't like what an Israeli Jew says about your peculiar and nasty faith(s) in a JEWISH country called ISRAEL, you should DEFINITELY pack up and leave. You won't be missed. I PROMISE!

I hope the Israeli Christians who read the above posters comments realize that those of us who actually live here are not so prejudiced and xenophobic as she is. It's inappropriate to insult other people's beliefs, even if they are different from yours. Sarah, if anything - you can stay in New York, we don't want people like you to further the flames of hatred in this already troubled land.

Yo Sarah. When you get finished running your bigoted mouth why don't you pack up an leave New York Cirty.

Until the pope apolgizes for the church's hand in the Shoah and for the recent holocaust denial by a key bishop these guys can stuff their request.

Read the Pope's comments and you will not see an apology but an appeasement. The "Society of Pope Pius X" which advocates the eradication of Jews calling Jews the sons of the devil is being openly and completely returned "to the fold" of the Vatican without any requirements to change their core beliefs and theology that villifies Jews. That aside, be grateful you live in a democracy with free speech. In eurabia, Christians are murdered by islamonazis for comments less aggregious than those made by the "society" or Schlein; If the pope allowed ANY catholic group like the 'society' to make similar comments against muslims, the vatican would be subjected to mortars and homicide bombings. So spare us the self-righteous indignation. Clean your own house before attacking ours!

Given 2000 years of vatican pogroms,inquisitions,Shoahs,expulsions, and kidnappings! Schlein is openly calling you to task for that. He need apologize for nothing and Channel 10 will lose all our respect if they proceed in the manner which the vatican desires over Schlein's right to express his views!

When Don Imus was fired for making racial jokes on his talk show in the USA, blacks did not demand that President Bush apologize to the black community. Fire Mr. Shlein, if you like, but the Christian community only makes things worse by bringing political tensions into the equation.

....now recognise a bishop denying the holocaust. Who is insensitive, should jews simply let these actions pass? those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

And when are you going to start apologizing to Jews for the last 2000 years of HELL on earth, via your Popes, church and Lucifer's complicity.

G-d created the world over billions of years, not a week. Now stop worrying and get on with life.

how can you still live in this christian country ? it has to be frustrating to live with all those non Jews , with churches around you , with christmas trees everywhere .

it is better to have freedom of speech, even if it allows things which are not liked, than to have free speech restricted. obviously i do not like what this guy said, but i am thankful we live in a place where he can openly say what he likes and i can openly disagree with him and say what i think. this is why israel is, without question, better and also thousands of years ahead of any country here in the middle east, hands down.

Non-jews NEED NOT APPLY.Muslims and Christians can go live elsewhere,this country is for jews.

Alright and acceptable to insult the Jewish faith?

How long do we all still pretend not knowing the root causes of the ever increasing anti-Semitism the world over.Exactly because of outburst like that.You can say what you like,all others expressing similar opinions about the jewish faith are Anti-Semites. Intolerance is not the right way to endear yourself to others.

Mary was no virgin, etc. NO APOLOGY. Finally someone spoke the truth. The christians don't like it, it's your problem, lump it.

Please forgive my impulsive rudeness. When my Saviour Yeshua is insulted, I get a little upset. May He forgive me and may you find Him soon.

To reconsider HIS visit? Great..... It is with profond relief that I accept your suggestion. Hope you are successful in pulling it off.

Aren't we a little to quick to apologize, making comments in our own country . I have not seen anyone apolgize for attacking Jews, synagoges and other jewish institutions,since the Gaza war. And I am not even mentioning the pleasantries we received for the past 1900 years by many representetives from this same religion. And about the pope not coming here , we would be very pleased with that. Respect works two ways , maybey it is time for these same people to stop what they have been doing for so long and leave us the heck alone.

"how can you still live in this christian country ?" You claim to be from Petach Tikva, yet refer to Israel as "this christian country?" Freudian slip?

is the "New Testament" as defined by the vatican. For two thousand years, we have been accused of 'deicide', blood lust, child kidnappings,mass murder by magic,and financial control of the world. When Europe suffered the Black Plague, the vatican blamed the Jews;the inquisition;pogroms;and the Shoah, coupled with kidnappings and expulsions. You would have us all believe - as you claim - that we bring this on ourselves. FACE FACTS: Antisemitism is the foundation of the vatican. The beatification of Pius XII and Queen Isabella, followed by the return of the "Society oof Pius X" proves that. Spare us your righteous self-indignation.

Excuse me, sir. If you think that a Jew promoting the absolute right of the Jewish state to be Jewish is "bigoted," then there is nothing that I have to say to you. And nothing you have to say to me to which I am willing to listen. I do not suffer fools lightly, and you, sir, are the quintessential fool. Ciao, baby.

You have to look at the death toll. A number of years ago, a priest of the Roman Catholic Church wrote a book called "Constantine's Sword." In it, he acknowledged that had Jews been left alone and not persecuted through the centuries, the Jewish population of the world today would be 330 million. We're barely 12 million. The author also acknowledged that the chief responsibility for the murder of Jews for the past 2,000 years was the fault of Christians, chiefly the Roman Catholic Church, though not limited thereto. There are any number of Christian countries throughout the world. There is ONE JEWISH STATE. Now, you can call me bigoted if you like, Astral, and you can accuse me of whatever .... I don't care. I am not interested in "peaceful coexistence" with Christians, Moslems or any one else. I am interested in preserving the Jewish nature of the State of Israel. My feeling is, simply this: if Christians -- or anyone else -- is "offended" at something done by a Jew in the State of Israel, they can leave. No one invited them; no one is keeping them from departing, either. If you don't like it, tough. I won't lose any sleep over your disaffection; I ASSURE you.

Well, Charles, that is why I live in Israel six months of the year. But I ask you this: with all your apologizing for the bloody hands of the Roman Catholic Church when SO many people have first-hand experience of their evil .... why do you live in Israel? Why not move to Belgium?

And we thought only Muslims were so thin-skinned! Looks like these 'Christians' are having a hard time turning the other cheek! Oh my, what would Jesus say? Probably somehting like, "Who gives a crap!? Feed the hungry, cloth the poor, and get on with more important things!!" I think everyone in the region needs a Valium.

I remember a settler girl who went to jail for 2 years for a Mohammed cartoon. Will Schlein share the same fate? I find talkbacks here extremely ignorant and stupid, this is hardly freedom of speech, Israeli TV personalities are known for their loose tongues, I-know-it-all attitude and toilet-style humour. A very lame excuse that this is a Jewish country, as Jews Israelis give a good example of religious tolerance and respect to other faiths, it's ridiculous if somebody identifies rude, impolite, offensive remarks on a faith that millions of people hold dear with Judaism or Jewishness or Jewish state for that matter. This is hardly honourable. Leave Pope, Vatican and Inquisition alone. Israel has many friends and supporters among ordinary Christians, last Pope even called Jews - "our elder brothers". Finally imagine if O'Brien or Jay Leno show would make jokes like that about Rachel, Ruth or Esther, would the Jews be amuzed?

If Israel is a Jewish state, why don't you and all the other Jews in the US and all the Galut move here? What are you doing in a Christian state, which is what America really is? After all, only about 1 1/2% of Americans are Jews, but in Israel, the majority are Jewish. "Put your money where your mouth is"!!!

Then please tell to other Jews all around the world to start packing, because other countries are not Jewish at all and they're not welcomed. With comments like this, you'll achieve this. All the Jews will be banished over and over again. You want tolerance from others, while let's face the fact, you're the most anti-social race on the planet. That's a fact. You're causing your very own pain throughout your history, then you're screaming the most and the loudest. I'm wondering how these great "chosen ones" haven't extinct in the last thousand years...

bit of humor that someone, somewhere finds insulting, he would never finish. this is humor. get over it. if you don't like it, don't watch it. just don't make such a big deal about evey little statement. this whole thing is absurd. even christian comics make jokes about the virgin mary and waiking on water. please!
