1. Pride?
Goliath   (06.22.09)
People say publicly they are pride as gays and lesbians? And what are next - there will be people who are pride as nudists, pedophiles, and other various forms of social and sexual deviances?
2. why are you all so threatened!!!
a b-d ,   the far north   (06.22.09)
I just don't understand all this opposition to Gay Parades. Maybe it all goes back to that old jingle I remember from Back Home: "We are your worst fear AND BEST FANTASY" ???
3. Rightists need to protest in the Gay neighborhoods.
Rich ,   Torotnto, Canada   (06.22.09)
4. I am starting to be paranoid,
ghostq   (06.22.09)
ynet keep filtering my TB, anyway right wingers should parade in city similar to san francisco.
5. #3we don't have gay communities
vashDi ,   israel   (06.22.09)
but personally i think ben arie has a good point. he should march though arab (israel) towns. he should be allowed to show his opinion in a parade. good luck ben.
6. You Don't Tell People How To Live... !
Abdel Karim Salim ,   Jerusalem - ISRAEL   (06.22.09)
It is the citizen's & the human's private life which is none of the business of others.When people willingly & without being coerced or blackmailed want to be gay or lesbian or bisexual then let them have it their own way as long as they do not harass others & do not violate any article of law... Remember that some of the most famous ancient Greek philosophers were homosexual as much as the late British economist John Maynard Keynes was ! What if a gay person later became another Einstein or Marie Curie or Florence Nightingale ? Would you in such circumstances, consider getting rid of him despite the immense benefits the humanity would be getting from such a person ??? By contrast forcing someone to perform sex by coercion or intimidation is certainly against his will & is definitely against the law.Such cases include rape,child molestation, & pedophilia, to cite only a few ... ! Don't tell people how to live as long as they do not harass you especially sexually speaking ... ! Abdel Karim Salim Sharif Jerusalem - ISRAEL
7. Abdel Karim
Steven Dill ,   USA   (06.22.09)
You sir should read your Torah. It says to stone all such rebels of G*D.
8. Why not?
Ethan ,   Eilat   (06.22.09)
The American Nazi Party got a permit to march in Skokie. Our crazy extremest have the right to march among those they hate too.
9. Oh, not this abomination parade AGAIN!?!
Ken Quinn ,   Amsterdam   (06.22.09)
Le 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Le 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
10. Gays will never win friends in Jerusalem by P'ing in the
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (06.22.09)
face of the religious Jews, they only hurt their own cause. Everyone expects them to parade in Tel Aviv, but when they DEMAND to parade in Jerusalem, they just anger people who would otherwise leave them alone and not cause them any trouble. Such NEGATIVE energy.
11. to #6 you missed the point, your
ghostq   (06.22.09)
claim is true, but we r not talking about greek we r talking about extreem rightwingers try to connect two populations that r not related to one another. sure they got the right to march but where is the logic behind it you think that will make the Gay community annoyed? some secular will even support their march throw arab cities.
12. #6 Things done is Sodom were thought to be done in private--
until Hashem publi- ,   cized it for all 2C!   (06.22.09)
13. To: #4 - You are right! Mine too!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (06.22.09)
It appears that YnetNews has a censorship board which doesn't like to publish anti-right wing talkbacks! It seems you cannot criticize Bibi too much and the religious are off limits. It should be called YnetBigotryNews! As for Gay rights they have the same place as religious rights. Freedom of how to worship and how to live your life, The Ultra-Orthodox have usurped this country particularly with Netanyahu at the helm. 6% of the population is telling 94% how to live their lives! Long live Gay Rights. Long live the right to choose and freedom of choice.. Long live animal rights that the Haredim abuse in making their shteimels! Now MK Ben Ari, no doubt with Shas support, consorts with those who call Yom Ha'Atzmaut the Nakba and mourn the creation of our country! He is in bed with those who work for our destruction. If is was not for people like MK Ben Ari and MK Nissim Ze'ev there would be no reason to hold Gay Pride Parades! Their attitudes are not very different from those now been expressed in Europe, the USA, the UK, South Africa, Russia and many other places against Jews! Think about it. What goes around comes around!
14. These parades are about shaking thier fists in Hashems face
to say "I WILL"to do ,   it my way,not yours.   (06.22.09)
15. What a title
ora   (06.22.09)
Isn't this supposed to be a news item, not an editorial?
16. #4, #13 ...
ben Ish   (06.22.09)
It is not only the anti-right wing tb that go unpublished. I don't think anyone can accuse me of that, yet some of mine are censored as well. back to the rightist parade... WHERE DO I SIGN UP?
17. Right wing Jews are racists
Sammy from Jordan ,   Amman Jordan   (06.22.09)
I'm not shocked to see those right wing Jews behave like White supremacists. Those ‎right wing Jews are filled with hate. They have no tolerance toward anyone weather they ‎are Gays, Arabs or Christians. Those people are the Jewish version of Taliban. Those ‎are the same people who complain about the way were treated by Hitler. They hate anybody who is not like them. They ‎think God is only for them. Those petty fools are going straight to hill. God is for ‎everyone. God if for the peaceful people weather they were Jews, Moslems or Christians ‎or weather they were Gays or Straight.‎ After all, he created them. They are all his children.
18. To #4 and David, you're not alone.
Lenny ,   Carmiel, Israel   (06.22.09)
19. Ban the Gay Parade! Ban Freedom!
Liberal Rightist ,   The Galilee   (06.22.09)
While watching the "Ma Koreh" ("What's Happening") program on Israel Channel 2 TV, Li-Noi bar Geffen remarked that 60% the Talkbacks reviewed (Hebrew ones or course) called for the cancellation or banning of the Gay Pride Parades because they are "provocative"! If we must do this to all things which provoke then we must ban all of the following: Ban criticism of the Government and the Prime Minister. Ban criticism of the Knesset and the Supreme Court. Ban swimming on Shabbat and close all the shopping centers on that hallowed day! Ban the wearing of "immodest clothing" by women and girls! Ban the Internet and the "non-kosher" Cellphone Networks. After these are all highly provocative aren't they? In fact, lets ban the the most "provocative" thing of all - The State of Israel which is a symbol freedom and liberty which many of the non-Zionist's find offensive! Or may we should just ban Judaism as it provokes the world!
20. Love out of a pure heart
1 Timothy 1:5-11 ,   New Testament   (06.22.09)
"But the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and a good conscience, and faith unfeigned, from which some, having swerved, have turned aside to foolish talking, desiring to be teachers of the law, neither understanding what they say nor that which they affirm. But we know that the law is good if a man uses it lawfully, knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous one, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and anything else that is contrary to sound doctrine, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God".
21. #17 - Sammy - How many gays in Amman?
William ,   Israel   (06.22.09)
I'll bet plenty. When will be your first gay pride parade there? I'll be never. Why? Because after being beaten, they will be slaughtered in order to drive such activity underground. Then you can claim as Iran's president did "no gays are in Iran". You just won't be able to be criticized as racists because your majority will support such actions, especially under Islam...so in your world, it's considered "protection of Islam", in our world it's considered "racism". Get it?
