1. take Tel Aviv out of Gaza....
Simon ,   London   (07.29.09)
LOL this is going to be a real sticking point to Palestinian unity, there is no way the Ramallah guys are going to allow this
2. Is this the freedom Obama seeks in the West Bank...??
Amihai ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.29.09)
3. Mohamed enjoyed walking around in the nude....
david ,   Hartford USA   (07.29.09)
so what's the big deal, Hamas? A little flesh and you nutcases fall to pieces? Why is it that every culture in the world enjoys the ocean wearing as little as possible and civilization hasn't come crashing down? Do you take your morning showers fully clothed? Do you make love fully clothed? Why do you let some old geezers tell you what is proper to wear? Have you no minds of your own? Haniyeh and Mashaal go to the finest beaches with their wives (and girlfriends) wearing the latest bikinis from France, and you idiots walk around in tents! Who's the chump? YOU ARE!
4. Radical Islam should not be allowed

6. Have'nt we heard this from some rabbis too ?
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (07.29.09)
Those separate places for women and men , those modesty squads ?. Sad for you "religious" people that you did'nt take a copyrighy on your ideas , at least a HONEST way to make money .
7. inevitable, yes
jerusalem   (07.29.09)
gaza has been known for awile of its conservativeness. we'll see how this turns out, i really do hope that things will really be runned islamicly with no soudi arabia's no female driving and females mandatory wearing of veils and abayas. or afghanistan's "morality squad" which coincidentally has upkeep of females while disregarding wetback looking, UNISLAMIC acting men.. religion comes from the heart; it will be more effective if religion is not forced. silver (and woven bracelets) is permitted for men to wear in the islamic point of view. yes, i know people are trying to go lengths to not copy the West, but come on, we all have our lives to live, damn! the religion comes first before worrying if we're copying off of the West. and eventually., things unfold by themselves without the use of force. it would be nice to have separation at wedding parties; and keep the debka! that pop music better be arabic and not english music that they are talking about. because all arabic music talks about either love, women or men with love connotations. it wouldnt kill the arab singers to sing about separating, their car, their rims...their pets or any other f****** thing, I swear that if i didnt get used to the theme for songs here (and avoid them whenever i can), i'd go mad... good that offenders are being beaten (lol at 3 young men). hope the teachers being told to pressure girls to wear headscarves dont go far, this isnt soudi arabia or afghanistan. not to mention this might have negative results in the people's perception of hamas in the future, so dont rock that boat, hamas. invest money conferences, debates, and lessons if a good start is really intended. we'll see how this all ends up.
8. Don't you dare compare the West Bank to Gaza
Sam ,   ME   (07.29.09)
Plus when you put people in a big prison and drive them crazy they tend to seek refuge in religion. This is an answer to ahole #2 if you are wondering. By the way It is not my twisted Palestinain mentality or my anti semetic motives it is Humans 101.

13. How about Pal culture? We refuse Taliban-inspired crap
Nour ,   Palestine   (07.29.09)
The dogs in Hamas including Zahhar and others should just immigrate to Afghanistan, because Palestinian culture will not and will never be shoved into the closet in favor of medieval rules!!!
14. Embracing the future by retreating into the past

19. #8, where is the prison you talk about in Iran, F. Arbia?
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (07.29.09)
or Afghanistan Taliban prior to 2003, or Yemen or Somalia or Gattar or Sudan, or current Turkey going back to Islam The truth is that Islam drives true followers to madness and mad people join Islam
20. So Palestinian Dabka is un-islamic? lol @ those idiots
Nour ,   Palestine   (07.29.09)
Cut off all PA transfers to Gaza until the Hamas emirate surrenders to Palestinian general concensus and STOP whoring around Islam for political reasons.
21. Patience, Marco, patience
Cameron ,   USA   (07.30.09)
There will always be an Islamic sandbag for you to throw over your shoulder. Even now I can see her squatting in your rathole, reading murder & mayhem verses from the Koran, and batting her peepers at you, as you wait for that govt. dole check.
