2. Good work
Michael ,   Israel   (02.04.10)
I am very proud that we are helping so much in Haiti. However, I have one problem. I have heard that Yad Sara branches in Israel lack equipment due to shortage of funds. We have to help our own too.
3. How can we help?
Sue ,   Los Angeles   (02.04.10)
Please provide a mailing address where to send school supplies. Will instruction be in French?
4. Any thought given to starting a "youth village"?
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (02.04.10)
Based on an Israeli model, Israelis years ago set up a "youth village" in Rwanda for many of the orphans after the violence of the 1990s. The quake in Haiti no doubt has orphaned thousands of children.. Any work being done on such a project?
5. Good work!
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (02.05.10)
This is really good news! So why is it hidden down on the bottom of the page w/o a headline? I am a retired teacher. Who can I contact to see if I can help?
6. Israel does this type of stuff often
William ,   Israel   (02.05.10)
They did the same thing in Gaza and West Bank. The difference is that while Haitian kids (known to be hardworking and eager to learn) rushed to find supplies to learn, the "palestinians" just attacked it and blew it up. So why does the world give their money to "pals" and not Haitians? It would definitely be a better Return on Investment.
7. great Job!
Kojo ,   Addis   (02.05.10)
wow, they don't even allow black Israeli kids to attend some of their schools and they are building schools outhere!!!
8. How about teaching Israeli kids?
jason white ,   afula,israel   (02.05.10)
The education system here is terrible and we want others to copy it? Our test scores are about as low as possible and may be worse than some third world countries.

11. Looking for appreciation?Start at home!
Keren ,   IL-BR   (02.07.10)
When Israel is going to be an example in education,justice,peace among ourselves,then,and only then,we will be able to truly help others.

please, learn the facts. all BLACK ETHIOP JEWS GO TO SCHOOL WITH ALL JEWISH KIDS ALL OVER ISRAEL. THEY HAVE FULL RIGHTS AS JEWS, FULL MEMBERSHIP IN ISRAELI SOCIETY AND ENJOY THE FREEDOM THEY HAVE IN THE JEWISH LAND AS OPPOSED TO THE PERSECUTION AND MERDER THEY EXPERIENCED IN ETHIOPIA. as well, IF YOU MEAN SUDANESE MIGRANT WORKERS THAT INFILTRATED ISRAEL FROM ERITHREA, EGYPT, SUDAN AND CHAD...THESE ARE NOT ISRAELI CITIZENS AND THEY ARE NOT JEWS, BUT MUSLIMS. THEY ENTERED ISRAEL ILLEGALLY THROUGH THE EGYPTIAN BORDER. THEY ARE INFILTRATORS WITHOUT ANY RIGHTS, WITHOUT ANY ISRAELI CITIZENSHIP, ETC... THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS TO ISRAEL AND TO EDUCATION IN ISRAEL. THEY DO NOT WORK, THEY DO NOT PAY TAXES AND THEY RIGHT NOW LIVE IN SHELTERS UNTIL ISRAEL FINDS THEM A PLACE TO GO TO. ISRAEL IS A JEWISH HOMELAND AS THE UN DECLARED IT IN 1948. THIS IS WHY ONLY JEWS CAN MIGRATE THERE. THIS IS NOT A RACIST COUNTRY. THIS COUNTRY IS BASED SOLELY ON JEWISH MIGRATION AND IMMIGRATION AND IS A SAFE HAVEN FOR JEWS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD... JUST LIKE SAUDI ARABIA, YEMEN, BAHRAIN, QATAR, EGYPT, LEBANON, SYRIA, JORDAN ARE ALL COUNTRY FOR MUSLIMS WHERE JEWS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ENTER, NOT ALLOWED TO LIVE IN, HAVE NO RIGHTS TO THOSE COUNTRIES' SERVICES, HAVE NO RIGHT TO BUY PROPERTY THERE AND... HAVE ZERO RIGHTS TO PRACTICE THEIR RELIGION. who is the racist now, ha???? while arabs, christian arabs, muslim arabs, druze, circasians, and others of other religions are full citizens of israel, enjoy education rights, jobs, freedom to vote, freedom to build homes and buy homes from jews without a death sentence on thier heads....and enjoy a quality of life and freedom they would never enjoy in any of the above muslim countries...and they know it. that is why they prefer to stay there rather than join thier brothers in other arab lands. israel respects all religions in its midst. those sudanese refugees are NOT ENTITLED TO RECEIVE ANYTHING FROM ISRAEL. ISRAEL OWES THEM NOTHING. THEY WERE NOT ALLOWED TO COME INTO ISRAEL. THEY SNUK IN ILLEGALLY. at the border between mexico and the usa, if mexican illegals are caught crossing the border, they are captured and returned into mexico right away. america owes them nothing. is america racist because it doesn't allow its country to be flooded with illegal immigrants??? no! no country will allow illegals in their country, especially when they sneak in which is against the law. these sudanese muslim black refugees refuse to stay in egypt because they know for sure that israel will treat them much more kindely than any egyptian muslim would. this is why they run to israel rather than stay in egypt or another muslim country. still israel owes them nothing, much less an education. hameed aboughaze, iranian

instead of just talking garbage and showing your ignorance, why don;t you try to phone an organization so that you can contribute something useful in terms of cash rather than your stupid comments. that will show that you at least care, noron. hameed aboughaze, iranian
16. Israeli school in Haiti
jackie zofe ,   Givataim, Israel   (02.11.10)
Wonderful thought but dont you think Israel needs to concentrate on the Education System here which is in urgent need of improvements. I suppose it looks good.
17. I hope

that Baroness Tonge is keeping an eye on this delegation because they really are "vampires" in disguise.
