1. Yuli Tamir
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron Israel   (09.23.09)
Not only she believes that it's OK to impose her views (no matter how unpopular) she also did her best to destroy the education system and is always promoting arab positions. Wouldn't she feel better in Balaad instead of Labor?
2. Going against the consensus of Peace Now only
zionist forever   (09.23.09)
Yuli Tamir one of the founders of Peace Now. The woman who wanted to add Nakba to the school curriculum and change things so that the children grow up indoctrinated with Peace Now values & removing some zionist & jewish issues. Yuli Tamir is thankfully no longer a government minister so what she says doesn't make a difference.
3. Whose consensus ?
Marcel ,   Florida   (09.23.09)
The consensus of corrupt, failed losers who serve their idols in Washington or God's consensus which is to build,build,build on the land He gave them ? The consensus of the losers is ; We are tired of resisting evil and surrender is what we do,and all we want is to be good dhimmi's for our masters.
4. #3 Marcel
Shlomo Kamra   (09.23.09)
Marcel, I believe in a different God to you. I do not believe in your writings that tell you to exapropriate land that does not belong to you, and build on it. Most of the world thinks this way too, and we believe in International law. So are you telling me that I can go and build a house on your land in Florida, because my God told me I can, and there is nothing you can do to stop me? Time to give up your fairytales, Marcel, and accept the 21st century!
5. advice for Yuli Tamir
(09.23.09)
Israel can go for elections and the voters will decide who is going against the stream and who is going with the stream. Wait! We did have elections and Yuli Tamir was defeated!

Just what G-d do you believe in, Shlomo ? Because if you believe in the same G-d our Forefathers believed in or in historical facts, you would know about the living history of the Jewish people in the ground in Shomron, filled with the archeological proof, that the Jewish people owned it,cultivated it, build on it and burried their dead in it. So it is our Jewish land, concord and populated by my Jewish people to keep and charish. We have no right to give it away. And because we have gotten into habit to give up our land for a so-called peace, we are only getting more war, more terror and more demands of land from our enemies.. Just refresh your hisorical facts of the past 30 years of Israel...Can you or your International orgs.present legal deeds or documents, justifying the frantic land grabbings of palis for building in the West Bank now ? It seems to me, you are another self hating Jew, who is a bigger threat to our survival, then the enemy, who openly hates us and wants our innihilation. Shame on You and your kind !!
8. FYI TAMIR 85% of Jewish pop VOTED RIGHT less than a year ago
CLEAR ENOUGH?   (09.23.09)
9. As Education Minister, Tamir went against conensus
William ,   Israel   (09.23.09)
and royally screwed up the Israeli education system. Despite the lacking of real political vision of Yossi Sarid, he was hands down the best Education Minister the country had in a long time, and Tamir, based on her own political agenda, ruined a good deal of it.
10. #4 - "we believe in intl law"
William ,   Israel   (09.23.09)
Really? Intl law claims Israel has the right to defend herself against terrorist attacks AND has used correctly the amunitions she has during the Gaza War. Yet your ilk still refuses to believe this and calls for war crimes against Israel despite proof otherwise. Intl law DOES allow Israel to build on land in West Bank and Gaza because: 1) no existing populations are moved as a result (based on Geneva convention) and 2) the land is considered "disputed" not "occupied". Again, you ignore this intl law because it doesn't suit your argument. Intl law dictates that boycotts are ILLEGAL against WTO members yet the Arab world continues to push a 60 year boycott against Israel. Intl law has dictated that the Red Cross MUST be afforded access to ALL POWs, yet Hamas and Hizbullah equally ignore this. Intl law also requires intl aid funds to have transparency and since 1948, the Pals have received, smuggled, and pissed away billions of dollars without one ounce of transparency. Intl law also states that ownership of land, if private, must be proven, yet Arabs make claims of ownership despite any forms of proof. Further, they deny Jewish ownership even when Jews DO have deeds for millions of acres. Further, Intl law supports the transfer of public land from one govt to another, in the event of war. In other words - when Brits had the Mandate, they could do with it what they wished. Further, when Israel won the war, they won rights over the public land - which is where settlements are placed now. So according to Intl law, you don't have a falafel to stand on.
11. #7 - "Shlomo Kamra" is not Jewish, he's an Arab hiding
William ,   Israel   (09.23.09)
under a Jewish pseudonym. Is it any surprise that Leftists and Arabs who come here to spill filth must hide their identity?
