Marco ,   Spain   (11.04.09)

6. #4 How much do you get paid for propaganda against Israel ?
rachel ,   usa   (11.04.09)
7. Reality hurts, Marco?
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (11.04.09)
What a bummer day for you - first reading about the captured weapons ship, now this from Guatemala, which represents a growing trend of enlightenment in the Latin world. Reality hurts heh?... Well, at least you still have the honorable human rights champion Hugo Chavez at your side.
8. United-What for clueless Marco?
Ben ,   London, UK   (11.04.09)
Marco get real! The UN is comprised of more dictatorships and corrupted regime members than democracies. The UN does not condemn, the crimes committed by musilm countries, by Sri Lanka against the Tamils, Soudan against christians, China against Tibet, Russia against Chechnya, US and England in Irak and Afghanistan, most African regimes ... and more! No, the UN found the oldest scapegoat in the world, the jews and there insolent country to divert everyone else awful behavior towards. Now for your education, Israel does not commit war crimes. Israel is fighting its enemies, Hamas and Co who are fighting a guerrila style war against Israel, putting their own population at risk. Israel warns civilians before attacking and offer all sorts of help to palestinians in those times. The kind of luxury jews cannot receive from the palestiians. Quite the opposite, Hamas and Co launche purposely missiles against Israeli civilians on an almost daily basis for eight years. Where were you and the UN to voice your concern at that time? No where, because bombing jews give too much of a hard on to people like you and the UN. Now let's face it, Spain's history is not much of a glorious one with the inquisition, the destruction of American civilizations, the civil war, the Franco years, ... I don't believe Spain and Spaniards have much moral lessons to give anybody and especially a country which is fighting for its existence (yep something you will never understand) and a country which share its knowledge and help developing countries more than what Spain can brag about. BTW - don't be condescending with Guatemala. Guate-who is definitely more forward thinking than most UN members. Get a life Marco.
9. To #4 At least ...
EST ,   Miami USA   (11.04.09)
Guatemala has their road sign in their own language ... not like Spain, where the road signs are in Arabic ... a sign of things to come or that have come to Spain???? Maybe that is why Marco keeps putting people down ... either he's an Arab or is dominated by them ... in thought, speech and action. Go Guatemala! Cultural exchanges are definitely a way to improve everyone's life as you and Israel have proven once again ... other nations should learn from you.
10. Marco the Poser
Marvin ,   Sunny Callifornia   (11.04.09)
Please quit giving Marco Machmood the honor of being anything Spanish. He is a discredit to the people of Spain and is for sure an Arab polluting the wonderful and benevolent people of Spain with his mere presence.,...He aint a Spaniard just another immigrant trouble maker. Needs a therapist too.....
11. #7 Tahl, Ashdod, occupied Palestine
Marco ,   Spain   (11.04.09)
The bummer day is yours Tahl. For every ship you sieze, do you have an idea how many get away? Are you aware that Hezbollah today has more than 200,000 missiles in stock? If Israel says that this ship had enough weapons to enable Hezbollah to fight for a month, what about the hundreds of ships that made it? How about the thousand or so flights that deliver weapons weekly to Hezbollah? Do you remember the confusion in Lebanon when Israel through the U.S embassy in Beirut, pressured Prime Minister Sanyora to relieve the security chief of Beirut international airport of his duties because he was on Hezbollah's side? Do you know that he is still the airport security chief? My post should give you some sleepless nights. Best solution is for you to seriously consider emigrating to Guatemala may be?
12. thanks to marco
Charles   (11.04.09)
We must thank Marco for giving us the opportunity to practice on a regular basis putting forward israel's position to counter his evil claims. However, the sun is setting on Marco and it's time for a more educated israel basher to take over to come forward. Marco is clearly Brainless and not too eloquent either. Hopefully Marco can introduce us to one like him with more brains and bring them onto Ynet to spar.. And by the way, Marco is a dimwit, as his own country is the reason why Guatemala speaks Spanish!!! Spain conquered, plundered and occupied every possible land including most parts of South and Central America, Mexico, southern and western portions of today's United States, the Philippines, Guam and the Mariana Islands in the Pacific, parts of northern Italy, southern Italy, Sicily, cities in Northern Africa which they still occupy (ceuta and Melilla), as well as parts of what are now France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands, all with the evil intent to bring back resources needed to make Spain a great place to live... (at the time anyway). shame on them and shame on you Marco The Jewish people continue to fight for its own survival throughout the ages, while yours was busy expanding its belly all over the globe for greed and evil intentions. Best change your name on your next posting, as Spanish critics are now exposed and have no moral standing to offload their own evils onto the Jewish nation.
13. To Mahmood from Spain
Ben ,   London, UK   (11.04.09)
The only ones with sleepless nights are the poor lebanese people which will have to pay the consequences of Hizballah. Hizballah will attack Israel, Israel will respond (basic equation) as hard or harder than before (with its millions of rockets) and Hizballah will hide behind civilians. The civilians will pay ... Hizballah does not care and round and round we go. And to finish, Marco or Mahmood, you can cry in front of Al jazeera as much as you can, because Israel will not disappear in your lifetime and neither the ones of your children and grand children; and round and round we go ...
14. Greetings from Guate-who
Guatemalan ,   Guatemala   (11.04.09)
Our small and poor country has always been friend of Israel and Jewish people in general, Guatemalans are very thankful for your valuable support. Lately many neo-communists supported by Chavez have been spewing antisemitic propaganda in our country but people here still support Israel And yeah, those Spaniards are a bunch of racists, they're mad because they're considered "el culo de Europa", just ignore them. Even small countries like mine were victorious against them.
15. Marco--1492
Miransky ,   al-Abama USA   (11.04.09)
An anti-Semite from Spain? Oh, my! They've hated the Jew since at least 1492. Now it is coated with the thinnest veneer of anti-Zionism or anti-Israel.
16. So let me get this straight, Marco #11...
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (11.04.09)
You cite the UN for supposedly calling Israel a "war criminal", and then you go on and on, boasting how Hizbullah makes a mockery of the UN, by smuggling in thousands of tons of weapons, in a flagrant violation of resolution 1701. Well, isn't it incredibly, ridiculously hypocritical on your part - on one hand to embrace and respect the UN when it suits your needs, while on the other hand completely ignore and belittle it, when it doesn't? Hardly surprising though. Flexible logic often comes in quite handy for dimwitted antisemites.
17. marco in Spain
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (11.05.09)
Listen marco , i suppose that you need some more blown up trains to understand what kind of people we are fighting . Regarding Guatemala , this is not the only country helped by Israel . Many African countries received our specialists in the same fields as the Guatemalan received . Thousands of their students came here to learn . Even now there is a group of ear and hearing Israeli specialists in a mostly Muslim country , Azerbadjan . We at least are bringing them developpement , your friends only terror
18. For Pete's sake! Israel honored + the posts are about Marco?
IGNORE HIM ALREADY! ,   HE"S A TROLL!!   (11.05.09)
