31. Those are not refugees but work immigrants
Israeli   (03.06.09)
thousands fled to Israel (only few of them are real muslim refugees), they're uneducated and cause troubles and bring crime and violence. we cannot be the home of thousand of muslim refugees, this is not a solution. we've got enough troubles of our own.
32. Sammy: Number of Jews in Jordan?
Sam   (03.06.09)
=0 Talk about racism.
33. #29 You are wrong
Sammy from Jordan ,   Amman, Jordan   (03.06.09)
If it were not for secular Jewish Americans, Israel would never brought back the Ethiopian Jews to Israel. I saw this on CBS 60 minutes show which was done by a Jewish reporter called Mike Wallace while I was visiting the US. I really have no problem with secular Jews. I have a problem with religious Jews who in my opinion are very racist. Religious Jews have complex of superiority due the fact they think they are the chosen people. We know this belief is rubbish due to the fact Jews suffered persecutions by others through their history. Example would be the Inquisition, the holocaust…etc.
34. I wonder what the mayor and the
jason white ,   afula,israel   (03.06.09)
neighbors ever did to defend Israel like the S.LA.?
35. GOOD...
Avi ,   Tel Aviv   (03.06.09)
...keep them OUT...they are not Jewish. This is a Jewish state for the Jews. All others may leave.
36. Shlomi mayor
evakatz ,   Israel   (03.06.09)
I find this behavior insulting; disgusting and entirely unacceptable. He should not be able to get away with it. What have we Jews learned about cecency; rascism...!
37. Time to end this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arie ,   BaGolan   (03.06.09)
While our 1% government has no issue with building EXCLUSIVELY 5th column Israeli arab (oxymoron) cities, and kowtowing to the repeated mercenary demands of the 5th column leadership, they routinely avoid putting an end to this sort of incendiary and discriminatory practices! The SLA were our allies and were offered our hospitality. The Sudanese refugees have suffered enough. There is no reason, nor should there be any allowance, for racists and bigots to be allowed this continued hatred. We should act quickly to end this. The Mayor should be removed and the AG has an obligation and moral duty to intercede. I would much prefer having either sets of these families as my neighbours than any 5th columnite or any member of the 1% government that has all but destroyed the State. Let them be!
38. To avi #16: Perhaps YOU should go elsewhere!
Arie ,   BaGolan   (03.06.09)
The SLA have been our allies when no one else gave a damn. We OWE them! The Sudanese are suffering genocide, an experience we know all too well. It is our moral duty to aide and assist them. We are a phoenix arisen from the ashes of genocide mass murder and racism. would personally prefer either of them as neighbours than the likes of you! Your mentality is more in line with the Germans of the 30s than any true Israeli of today.
39. Ashamed to be Israeli
Daniel Temkin ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (03.06.09)
Aside from being racist and just plain wrong, we owe these people, the SLA families, a lot of gratitude and support for what they did. In addition, we, as a Jewish people, have a duty to protect the innocent Darfuri people who come to our country seeking sanctuary and shelter. I hope this mayor is punished and severely reprimanded.
40. People that hold discriminatory attitudes need to...
psalms 83 ,   Selah   (03.06.09)
look over thier shoulder ...simply put your blessings from Hashem will dry up.....
41. Send them back to where they came from
Moshe ,   telaviv   (03.06.09)
42. Mayor of Shlomi..You are not GOD.
Ruby Asuleen ,   Coral Springs FL USA   (03.06.09)
The Mayor of shlomi Should give up his JOB. Bring The SLA family back.. and give them support & Love.
43. Thanks for bringing to Israeli public's attention
Serge ,   Montreal, Canada   (03.06.09)
Sunlight is the best disinfectant. The public will not stand for this mayor's actions. Hope he is planning his next job, because this one has not long left.
44. Re:
L ,   USA   (03.06.09)
Same in Saudia Arabia. It is segregated into Muslim and Non Muslim. What's your point?
45. #39 and all Jew haters
Moshe ,   telaviv   (03.06.09)
I am proud to be a Zionist Jew. I am proud to be Israeli. Israel belongs to Jews only. Every one else including and not limited to our neighbors from up north, get the hell back to where you came from. If you were not such cowards, you would have fought Hezbollah, but it took you less than 24 hours to pack and run. Even though we left in your possesion weapons that were enough to equip a whole army.
46. Sammy you misunderstand
Hannah ,   NY   (03.06.09)
Chosen doesnt mean better. It just means chosen to live a different way,a more difficult way. It's hard being ' chosen', and jealousy based on this understanding is the reason for the holocaust/inquisition etc. Religious Jews are no more rascist than religious Muslims- why can ME Muslims all go live in Europe etc but none can swop with their home? You expect everyone else to share their homes but not you.No French/Belgians living next to you I guess. Or anywhere else except Israel. I disagree with these ignorants who objected- but there are plenty of people like that everywhere.
47. I agree with Avi...#16
Malone   (03.06.09)
You guys are doing your best to give Israel to the pals,so why not give it the sudanese as well. Pretty soon,if all the bleeding hearts/self righteous/don't fart in public peopleget their way..there will be no more Israel. I completely understand the Mayors point of view and agree. Call it what you will..and I know all the bleaters will scream "racism" cause thats the latest trendy word along with "apartheid" and "fascist",but the fact is that Israel is slowly but surely being taken over by outsiders,who go there not to contribute ,but to benefit.
48. No go whine..
IRAN#1   (03.06.09)
..when the rest of the world discriminates against jews!
49. # 47 Macho Malone
URI ,   Israel   (03.06.09)
Outsiders include you Macho Malone! Dont you get it? Israel belongs to Israeli Jews, and you are not one of them.
50. men and dogs
walter ,   tel aviv   (03.06.09)
the more I know men, more I admire the dogs...
51. Real Jews
Naor ,   USA   (03.06.09)
Real Jews, who follow their religion truly, know that you must love your neighbor as you love yourself. Hating another person because they are not Jewish goes against Judaism. It borders on the fascist thinking of Nazi Germany. Germany only for Germans? Remember that? Israel is a Jewish state, yes. But it is also open to all people who share in its love and struggle. That is what the founding fathers of our nation wanted. Remove this governor immediately!
52. To Bill (CAN) and the rest of the Anti Israel mob
Mark ,   New York, USA   (03.07.09)
You all disgust me!! You justify Anti Semitism based on one stupid politican in Israel. That's the same logic the Nazis used: "If one Jew is bad they all must be"...in this case its: "If one Israeli is racist they all must be"!! This is how you justify terrorism against Israel. PLEASE NOTE THAT EVERY NATION HAS INDIVIDUALS OF POOR MORALS, its doesn't make all Israelis racist!! 99.9% of Israelis are disgusted with this guy so why are you blaming an entire nation for one man's racism? Especially those of you from Romania, Poland, Germany etc...please look in the mirror for gods sake!! I can't watch a soccer match from E. Europe w/out hearing monkey chants at black players...does that make the entire nation racist because of a group of idiots??? Your attacks are pure Hypocrisy !!
53. To #20
Joseph ,   Beirut   (03.07.09)
May be you need to learn a little more history. These SLA member have betrayed their own people, their own country, and their own religion. As a proud lebanese maronite, I condone these members, and oviously they get what they deserve. You can live next to them, but here in Lebanon, they are unwanted and no one want to live next to traitors. You can keep them in your country who left them running to your boraders....Life is funny!!! Birds of the same feather fluck together....hahahaha
54. #13, if it was apartheid then it wouldn't be news
Danny   (03.07.09)
and would you like to show me a developed country where people are allowed to build houses anywhere with no planning permission?
55. #53 Joseph, Beirut, Lebanon
Marco ,   Spain   (03.07.09)
Well said Joseph!
56. To #16 and #47 Where to start?
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (03.07.09)
First and because they’re easily spotted, we’ll run off the Chinese living across the street. Next, those Lebanese on the corner have to go, taking the Sikhs and their turbans with them. Not that they've ever done anything to anybody, but we’ll do some vile things to those gay guys two houses up. As for the Christians, we’ll only harass the Catholics, especially those black ones. Oh, and then there are the Jews. We all know that they try to run the whole world and do strange things with matzo balls, ergo, out with ‘em right away!! We'll keep going until we’re down to mostly white Baptists. Yours truly, not subscribing to any religion and having this peculiar and not exactly Aryan background, is probably knee-deep in s--t right about now, with my chickens coming home to roost. Since I’ve been living next door to a Jewish family for 20 years and - can the White Baptists ever forgive me - have occasionally taken a swim in their pool, I’m probably “contaminated” by association and maybe I had best start to pack and look for a neighborhood full of people exactly like me. So far, the only viable places I’ve come up with are Mars and the moon, and though I know for a fact that my kids wish me there now and then, neither location is too inviting and would bore me to tears. Oh, lest anyone should think that I'm some sort of Pollyanna, I totally dislike the guy living in the house on the other side of me. I couldn't care less what his religion, sexual preference or national origin is. He's just a one-size-fits-all d—head whom I would only wish on the worst, radical Muslim as a neighbor, preferably one living somewhere on the far side of Outer Mongolia. All sarcasm aside, it is so very sad to read about discrimination against anybody by Jews, who, more than anybody on the planet, should know how that sort of thing starts and how it can end up. The exceptions are those people, who have the destruction of Israel and everybody in it as their prime goal in life. Thats not discrimination. That's self-defense. I had the honor of having been invited by a Jewish friend to see a Purim Spiel last night and though these Jews didn't throw me out, Gabi Naaman probably would have had me sitting in the parking lot-----at some grocery store---in Outer Mongolia. For those of you who say that Israel is for Jews only, here's a little item from the not too distant past: <(September 15, 1935) Entirely convinced that the purity of German blood is essential to the further existence of the German people, and inspired by the uncompromising determination to safeguard the future of the German nation, the Reichstag has unanimously resolved upon the following law: Section 1 1.Marriages between Jews and citizens of German or kindred blood are forbidden. Marriages concluded in defiance of this law are void, even if, for the purpose of evading this law, they were concluded abroad.> That was just for openers. In the end it didn't matter on which side of the mixture you were reared or that you simply forgot and called someone meschugge instead of verrueckt. You were lucky to get out alive and that mostly because the madness was finally over. And it all started with Germany for Germans. Oh, and the "US for white Anglos only" didn't work out too well, either.
57. IF THIS ISNT RACISM AND APPARTHEID, WHAT IS??
I F ,   USA   (03.07.09)
THIS IS SOMETHIMG I DID NOT DREAM OF BACK IN THE 80S WHEN ISRAEL WAS ISRAEL, NOT ZIOISRAEL..
58. JOSEPH FROM BEIRUT..
IF ,   USA   (03.07.09)
HOW OLD WERE YOU IN THE 70S WHEN THE PLO SLAUGHTERED US MARONITES AND THE ONLY ONE THAT WAS WILLING AND READY TO HELP US STAY IN LEBANON WAS ISRAEL- NOT FRANCE NOT US NOT RUSSIA.... YES IT WAS ISRAEL.. CANNT THANK ISRAEL ENOUGH FOR WHAT IT DID BACK IN THE DAY. BUT THIS ISRAEL IS DIFFERENT THAN THE ONE I KNOW.. HOPE THIS RACIST MAYOR GETS WHAT HE DESERVES AND THAT IS NOT TO GET REELECTED. THATS HOW DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES WORK. NOT BY BLOWING HIM AND HIS FAMILY UP, NOT BY PROTESTING AND DAMAGING PUBLIC PROPERTY LIKE MOST OF OUR NATION DOES!!
59. THANK YOU ISRAEL!!
Arie ,   BaGolan   (03.07.09)
The VAST majority (other than perhaps 2) Israelis vehemently condemn the conduct of the racist mayor! The foreigners like to condemn us (as always, but they willfully overlook the simple fact of overwhelming condemnation of racism on our part). I am proud of the Israelis that have stepped up. And I do thank the foreign condemnations of Israel as a whole for this. It once again proves quite clearly that anti-Zionism is naught but a thinly disguised synonym for anti-Semitism.
60. fools
Elie ,   batroun, lebanon   (03.07.09)
LET THE SLA COME BACK!! Let them meet their mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers once again and live as lebanese! Israel, you're losing all of your christian allies in lebanon. and if hezbollah wins the june 7 elections, don't be surprised!!! fools...
