1. They must be evacuated
Rivkah ,   New York   (07.19.09)
For their own good
2. where were these people in 2005?
Golan ,   SL   (07.19.09)
Ah! I get it. So its "wrong" to evacuate Arabs for the sake of "peace" but "right" to ethnically cleans Jews from their homes for the sake of "peace."
3. Good for Israel
Yaron ,   Sacto   (07.19.09)
Jews baught the land, it is theirs. Same tactic as the early pioneers. Worked then IY"H it will work again.
4. east Jerusalem
ajs ,   ashdod   (07.20.09)
Go for it. Evict them all. Should have been done sooner
5. I DON'T UNDERSTAND
Iranian Jew ,   CA   (07.20.09)
Has the land been bought from the owner by the developer? I wish ynet wrote the complete for everyone to understand. If the land owner got paid for the land then why publish this story and if not then evacuating by force is a terrible thing to do.
6. eviction
David ,   USA, exile   (07.20.09)
I am sorry for any man to be evicted from the home he was born in, BUT, when you say any part of Yerushalayim is "OCCUPIED" by Jews it makes my blood boil. I loose all sympathy. I would suggest building him a home in the the SO CALLED west bank but with the attitude being shown against Jews in this article, I say boot them all into gaza and tell obama he is not welcome in Eretz Israel.
7. Hmm, I seem to remember obaama was running for pres. of the
USA, NOT East ,   Jerusalem.   (07.20.09)
8. Jews should Bibi's picture throughout E.Jerusalem saying
"Bibi--Real change ,   you can beleive in"!   (07.20.09)
9. Part of the Israeli peace plan?
James Hovland ,   USA   (07.20.09)
The world is watching. Does this action promote peace? Or incite hostility? Just to be clear. East Jerusalem is not within Israel's recognized borders. That area is occupied territory and has been recognized as the capital of the future state of Palestine. Israel needs to understand that they can not be allowed to expand their borders by military force. It sends the wrong message. Israel's "land for peace" mindset is like a thief steeling a car and expecting a reward for returning the tires.
10. Move "Em Out!
Heather Czerniak ,   Milwaukee, USA   (07.20.09)
Jerusalem and all of Israel belongs to Jews and Jews only! Don't like it? Tough! Go find some Arab country that cares about you so much! Jerusalem is ours!
11. illegal homes
Ellen ,   Israel/USA   (07.20.09)
Let me try to get it. It appears the Arabs feel that if they can illegally live in a place that tthey don't own, if the land that place is on is not theirs than it becomes theirs forever!!! NO WAY--this land is Jewish land, the ownership is Jewish, even the leftist Supreme Court has agreed. It is time to let the property owners due as they wish with their property. Fools, if a Jew Squatted in an Arab owned property he would have been evicted years ago--without nary a word of support from anyone.
12. G-d gave that land to the Jews for all eternity. Jews living
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (07.20.09)
in Jerusalem is as normal as ice cubes melting on a hot stove.
13. to # 1 Rivka
erik ,   Prague   (07.20.09)
I hope that the same will not happen to you .
14. nobama can't tell Israel wereto built in her own state.
ghostq   (07.20.09)
that lot is a praivat land and the american guy can built what ever he wants on his soil. nothing they can do about it really.
15. #9
Alison Yadan ,   hod hasharon, israel   (07.20.09)
Get your facts right before you spout BS. All of Jerusalem is the recognized capital of Israel. There is no such thing as the State of Palestine!!! We are not expanding our borders; we are within them! If you don't understand Israeli politics, then mind your own business!
16. to #9 wong the east part belong to Israel
ghostq   (07.20.09)
Israel gives them health services and other civic services, their jobs r in Israel once you cut them out, you cut their income source, witch means you make them much poorer, not long ago the protested cause they wanted services like west of jerusalem but not all of them pay for thos the live in fear of being in the dead end teritory knowing it won't give them bread on the table. but yet again you can't have it all.
17. No. 2 are you serious?
Martin Christodolou ,   New York   (07.22.09)
From a unbiased point of view I just want to add you really have the nerve to talk about ethnic cleansing when your people are the only ones on the planet ethnically cleansing arabs lets be honest the whole world see's it only the rose tinted glasses of israelis and jews can not seem to see it guess they need to go to specsavers
18. So is it,,
tino tinel ,   east river park   (11.01.09)
