1. He has o much in common with muslums in Canada.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (12.25.09)
Anti-Antisemitism, paranoia, pathological hatred. Yup I think he should be a Canadian muslum, he is no use to Israel or the rest of the world.
2. Not the way to go
Shalom Hartman   (12.25.09)
The case of the missing yemenite children is a big, black stain in Israel's history which needs to be admitted to and reparations made. HOWEVER - this is NOT the way to do it!
3. To #1. Bunnie Meyer - I guess you're not a Yemenite Jew
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.25.09)
... and have no desire to uphold any kind of justice either. Not everyone that has a case against the government of Israel is an anti-Semite, anti-Zionist or a self hating Jew. Trying to bury your shame in denial doesn't make it go away, it only makes you look that much more guilty and less credible. JUSTICE, JUSTICE SHALL YOU PERSUE... Judges and officers shall you appoint in all your gates, which the Lord your God gives you, throughout your tribes; and they shall judge the people with just judgment. You shall not pervert judgment; you shall not respect persons, nor take a bribe; for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous. Justice, justice shall you pursue, that you may live, and inherit the land which the Lord your God gives you. (Torah - Deut. 16:18-20) KOL HAKAVOD to all of the whistle blowers out there.
4. Cover up
Susan ,   Kfar saba   (12.25.09)
I think some powerful people in Israel are still covering it up because there are people who are still alive who would go to jail if the whole truth ever came out. I have talked to Yeminite Israelis about this. Almost every family had a small child who went missing.
5. #1
Ram ,   London   (12.25.09)
You obviously know nothing about this; hopefully because you are young. This is a very delicate matter in Israel's history which the israeli government dealt with very badly. Uzi Meshulam has paid dearly and suffered tremendously (phisically)due to the Israeli government's urgency to bury this case. This is not the way for a democracy to act. Yes it sounds bad that Uzi should come to this but we have not suffered like he did so who are we to judge?
6. Ynet embarasses Israel
Yoni ,   Tel Aviv   (12.25.09)
Where are the reports about the terror attack that happened yesterday? Ynet couldnt care less about the real issues they just push forward their own agenda and propoganda
7. He's just a loon -- the Yemeni kids story is a dumb myth.
Scott ,   USA   (12.25.09)
8. sue in the ICC? yeah right.
Big Moe ,   Jerusalem   (12.25.09)
I am so tired of all these fakers claiming they will sue someone in the ICC. First a bunch of Israelis claimed they were suing Iran in the ICC. Then the Pallies claimed they were suing Israel and now this stupidity. I will bet $25,000 no lawsuit ever gets filed and YNET never bothers to follow up. Only states can sue in the ICC! I'll repeat that - ONLY STATES CAN SUE ANOTHER STATE IN THE ICC. Individuals HAVE NO STANDING! Go read the Rome Treaty. So unless Canada sues Israel in the ICC nothing will become of this except this fake misleading uninformed headline written for naive dummies. Stop printing lies.
9. its about time !!! and maybe the only way
justice will come ou   (12.25.09)
to force the Israeli government to admit in those crimes.
10. refugee status
Lisa   (12.25.09)
too many people are claiming refugee status- better make sure your claim is accepted- if Canada rejects- which is more than likely in this case- you might end up between a rock and a hard place. Every nut ans his cousin is sueing for something- the ICC is NOT the place for this. Get real! Some shyster lawyer is getting rich on this one.
11. as kuntar, he has innocent blood on his hands
observer   (12.25.09)
Kuntar said: ‘If I had wanted to kill Danny and his daughter, I would have shot them in the house. I took them to the boat because I wanted hostages. I had no interest in hurting them. After I got them into the boat, wild gunfire started and I went back to help my squad on the shore. Danny, the father, kept shouting, “Stop firing, you crazy people.” He and his daughter were found shot in the boat. I was on a small rise, shooting at your forces, and the boat was 20 meters away in the water, with Danny and the girl.’ ((During a police raid on the house one of his followers was killed in a fire exchange.)). no comment except that Ami received an ordinary court trial, but for Kuntar a top secret one delivered.
12. Jews are the most virulent anti-Semites
alan ,   texas   (12.25.09)
another damaging nut casefrom the nurai karta
13. To: Scott at No. 7
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (12.25.09)
Sadly, the story is quite true. The only item I quibble with is that the article states that the abscondings occurred in the late 1950s. I believe it was the late 1940s, possibly the early 1950s as well. Newborn infants of Yemeni heritage were given mostly to Ashkenazi women who were concentration camp survivors and could not conceive children; the birth mother – who was sedated during the delivery (very unusual in Israel, even to this day, therefore impliedly quite a deliberate act) – was told that the baby was stillborn. Jewish people do not sit shiva for a stillborn child, and a formal burial is generally up to the family. It would have been relatively easy to talk a newly-emigrated woman out of any need to see the baby or to hold a funeral. Some people claim that toddlers were also taken away, but that is not true. One sits shiva for a child who lives for a month; one buries a child who lives for a month. The parents would have asked to have the bodies for the funeral, and would not have relented on this point –Yemeni Jews (at least in the late 1940s) were quite orthodox. In any event – I think that the policy meant well. I also think that it is one of the cruelest things I can imagine. It is anything but a "dumb myth," Scott. I wish it were only that. And it needs to see the light of day.
14. yamenite babies
mical ,   usa   (06.22.13)
How dare you deny what has already,in many ways, known to be the truth? The Ashlenazi Jews scream from the roof tops when anyone,anywhere denies the Holocaust! This is the Yamenites Holocaust done by Ashkenazi Jewish Government for the benefit of Ashlenazi Jews. Go to hell.
15. denial
mical ,   usa   (06.22.13)
How dare of you to deny! You who most likely pained when someone denies your Holocaust! Well, from now on l will voice my doubt. Thanks for opening my eyes to see that we do not belong to the same group.l felt it in the past,but seeing it in writing made it real. Thank you! lsraeli Yamenite.
16. Ahh! Sue Israel in the ICC?
Dee Bee ,   Israel   (06.22.13)
But Israel is NOT ratified the Rome Treaty as haven't 31 other countries including the USA!.
