1. Three reporters to write a four sentence article?
Besalel ,   Kew Gardens, NY   (05.12.09)
Did each guy write 1.3 sentences? Finally we have a story that the Jewish world is actually interested to hear about and these guys tell us about indigestion. What a joke!
2. Indigestion?
La Cumparsita ,   London UK   (05.12.09)
3. looks like pagans to me.
ghostq   (05.12.09)
4. My husband was one of the 400,000 last night and had a blast
(05.12.09)
bonfires, music & dancing, comradery. The indigestion was probably from all of the free food and drink booths everywhere. The fainting? He did say that it was crowded as a mosh-pit at some points and was somewhat reminiscent of crowd-surfing.
5. What were they all eating... fire/
bj ,   US   (05.12.09)
Just joking......
6. but silence over keeping G-D's day of firstfruits
all this excitement ,   keeping rabbis days   (05.12.09)
that day will fall on sunday may 31st when the aaronic/levitical priests would have served in the temple on that day if the usurpers would just get out of their way.
7. #6 this is the jewish world section...
ezra ,   canada   (05.13.09)
...not the karaite one.
8. #6 you need a jewish soul to understand
ezra ,   canada   (05.13.09)
what seems to be to idiots is not what is to for real
9. Besalel, it takes 10 Ynet reporters to screw in a lighbulb
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (05.13.09)
10. Couldn't find an article about that terrible accident...
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (05.13.09)

11. lag b-omer
meir ,   israel   (05.13.09)
400,000 jews turn up in meron and this is all you can produce? shame on y-net. you're anit-hardi bias is showing.
12. i believe Moses and Aaron;not these usurpers
korah/dathan/abiram ,   no not me   (05.13.09)
yes i follow the karaites.why would i want to follow rebels that can be proved wrong and have cursed us with troubles from the gentiles that would never had occurred at all if we had minded our own business and let Aaron's sons look after religion as the law says-exodus 28.
13. reminiscent of those....
Eshkol Hakofer   (05.15.09)
reminiscent of those celebrating the golden calf (Exod 32:6 And they rose ...offered burnt-offerings, ....and ....sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to make merry.) and others partaking of the quails and getting poisoned (numbers 11:33). except that our contemporary idolaters have no excuses, after 3,500 years or so, they would be expected to know better!
14. No. 13
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (05.17.09)
