Sorry Mike #24 :)

I don't know the Captain. You missed the point, my friend. One does not throw anything at someone who speaks. That is the rule of law and an unspoken law in a democratic country. Doesn't matter if he is idiotic or not. If you don't like what people say in public, you can leave. You DO NOT THROW ANYTHING. Cavemen throw things!

if shoe throwers got bullets instead of "dialogue",I bet they would'nt throw shoes!

be developed? It could pick up the shoes in flight and fire small rockets to knock them down to the floor.

So three thousand microbes were born in gaza? Sounds like they had the runs there. There is no G-d for the palis,they are heathens. And you must be one also!

you deserve it , shoeses is the new mode to show the anger started with Bush , the Israeli basketball team in Turky , the Israeli embassador in Sweden and now the IDF officer .... still more to come .

Adelheit got the well-deserved when speaking on behalf of an army and government that lost all sense of reason .... Unfortunately!

By both shooting rockets and sending bombers to playgrounds and by placing Pal kids in front of them to hide their actions. They are guilty on both counts, a true war crime for which no one has expressed doubt (except you). I'm surprised having your head up your arse in New York has kept you from seeing the NYT reports that previous Gazan claims of massive civilian deaths was in fact, a lie by Hamas.

1) The West will pick up its shoes and toss them at Muslims who condone violence and hatred. The result will be hundreds dead, a few embassies on fire, and a call to destroy the world by Muslims. 2) ALL shoes will be checked along with coats at the doors, with luggage searched for clandestine footwear.

Without the messiness of being a shahid, an Arab can throw a shoe and hope for the same riches and notoriety as their Iraqi counterpart - kudos from Arab despotic leaders, fame among the Arab street, the offer of a beautiful daughter as a bride from her Palestinian father, and several camels.

When someone refuses to allow someone to say something they feel they will disagree with--one wonders why they are scared of the message. could it be that the good Captain would have presented a rationale, clear explanation of what went on it Gaza. Did the shoe throwers feel threatened that maybe a newsperson present would have realized that the Arab press doesn't print the truth. Only one who is terrified of what someone else has to say prevents them from speaking. After all--actions DO speak louder than words!!

You're a foreigner, too, prob. Muslim Not from USA USA.

If you rude barbarians don't knock it off, you'll find yourselves going shoeless next time any Western guest speakers are scheduled to speak to you pathetic, Islamonazi sympathazing thugs. You have disgusting manners and behave like jackasses. Dialogue is wasted on you animals.

there is bright-side people. FREE SHOES!!!! if the shoes came from there own feet...then it is sweet justice. to be walking out shoeless in the winter in the Netherlands.

The computer you probably use now to send this message is powered by a chip designed in Israel you moron, not to mention the Windows OS...

And you are a stupid guy for a Japanese. Must have Jewish blood somewhere around your small brain.

The truth is that the Israeli government must face international justice for crimes against humanity. Just as Hitler would have had to face the very same crimes had he survived.

AND MORE THEN HALF THE PEOPLE IN GAZA RELY ON UN AID FOR YEARS.( ONLY 8% OF UN AID COMES FROM ARAB COUNTRIES) GAZANS HAVE BEAUTIFULL LIVES, AT SOMEONE ELSES EXPENSE, INSIDE HOUSES WERE NICE ONLY THE STREETS WERE UGLY. QURAN ORDERS TO INCREASE IN NUMBERS & ANTI ISRAELI IDEOLOGY & PROPAGANDA FOR WORLD TO SEE, CREATED A DELIBERATE DEMOGRAPHIC CRISIS PEOPLE OF GAZA INVOLVE THEMSELVES IN ALL SORTS OF CRIMES, SUCH AS MAKING BOMBS AT HOME INFRONT OF THEIR CHILDREN, AND BEING INVOLVED IN TERROR ACTIVITIES. IT IS A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY TO HAVE KIDS WITHOUT KNOWING HOW TO PROVIDE FOR THEM. ISLAM IS ALL FOR HOLLY WARS AND MARTYRS, WELL, I GUESS IT NEEDS PEOPLE OR CHILDREN, CAUSE SOMEONE HAS TO BE THE OCCASIONAL MARTYR CANNON FODDER WHEN PEOPLE SERIOUSLY WERE POOR FARMERS IN PALESTINE, AND WERE REALLY REFUGEES WHO CAME FROM SYRIA AND ARABIA, THEIR NUMBER HAS NEARLY DOUBLED IN 500 YEARS, TO BECOME 400,000 IN YEAR 1880. THAT IS THE AUTHENTIC GROWTH RATE FOR REAL POOR REFUGEES: DOUBLING THE POPULATION DURING 500 YEARS, THE WAY THINGS WERE IN PALESTINE, BEFORE GAZANS COULD LIVE ON BENEFITS.

US will also start moving in their direction to avoid trouble. Israel will have no friends just as the jews were abandoned to the nazis. israel's only hope is to to become food and energy self sufficient and have enough nukes and a missile delivery system that can target anywhere in the world. It can get energy by invading saudi arabia

if I see an IDF officer, even the ones which I used to win my 1500m/ 5000m Olympic gold medals.

Primitive, rude behavior imported into Europe. Resorting to shoe throwing to silence an Israeli speaker. So much for freedom of speech in Europe. Ron Edelheit filed charges against the dhimmis. Hope we get to see photos of them hauled into court with mummy and daddy hiding their faces. Emerging occupation in Europe....custom shoemaker of one shoe for throwing and pounding on head.

This shoed throwing just shows how utterly primitve and pathetic these people are. Lack of sophistication big time! At least they don't throw their underwear!!

are the marcos and Jalas so obsessed with Israel ynetnews??? It truly fascinates me. I cannot imagine being all into some Spain or Gaza online news talkbacks. Totally weird. AND these so called righteous people, claiming war crimes on the Israeli side ignore their own barbaric behavior completely, they exagerate greatly and only show up on ynetnews talkbacks when it is an article that can spew hatred on. If it is something like " Hamas shooting their own and torturing... they DISAPPEAR!!! They nevert show any human sympathy to any terror victim if they are Jewish. That is a crime in itself.

What a lie!! Israel has made so many contributions it is totally insane to claim otherwise- you make yourself look very foolsih and very difficult if not impossible to take seriously. Just google" Israeli inventions then google: Arab inventions Really really amusing.
