1. Remove this racist mayor!
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (02.07.10)
Nir Barkat should be removed from office, we don’t need a racist like him in Jerusalem, there is one law for Israeli Jews and Israeli Arabs and Barkat is making a mockery of this law. Why demand of Arabs and Arabs Jews to freeze life yet to expect that Jews may continue to build at will? Expecting of Arabs not to reside in certain towns, villages and even neighborhoods of Jerusalem, and only of Arabs, and not doing so of Jews is pure and simple racism, anti-Israeli racism!
2. Disgusting and disgraceful
Cynthia ,   USA   (02.07.10)
How can the mayor act like this? Shame on Barkat for launching his own private operation pricetag against the Arabs in Jerusalem. This racist mentality just makes me sick!!
3. #1 and #2
(02.07.10)
Let us say it is proven that there are thousands of illegal Arab homes built and the government does nothing, while enforcing the law against Jews. Would you say the same? And let us say that the Havilio is proven wrong and there are thousands of illegal Arab homes near Bet Yonathan that should be destroyed first, will you say Havilio is a racist and that he should be fired? Just asking.
4. Remove this leftist Havilio
Edel   (02.07.10)
5. Bet Yonaton is supposedly "illegal" because the height is
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (02.07.10)
one and a half stories too tall. So seal the top too floors, destroy the 200 illegal arab structures simultaneously with all the bulldozers acting at the same time. No special treatment for arabs who build illegally.
6. Can't destroy arab homes - too busy destroying Jewish homes
marlene ,   Philadelphia, USA   (02.07.10)
SO GIVE HIM THE D__N AUTHORITY, FOOL!
7. send Jose Havilio back to Puerto Rico
Mendl ,   Givat Zev   (02.07.10)
This man does not have a single Jewish quality in him, he has no love for Jews or our Medina Thank you Hasidei Gur for supporting Barkat, Thank you Pindrus for playing soccer in your short pants with this man. I bet Rav Eliyashuv has much nachas from your behavior
8. No discrimination?
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (02.07.10)
"There is no discrimination, contrary to the mayor's claims." Destruction = Sealing ?
9. #1 Eitan
Benny ,   Gush Etzion   (02.08.10)
No problem we will transfer ALL Arabs to Qatrin and make you their Mukhtar That should solve your problem. We will also arrange a special tzedaka fund to pay the dowry for your daughters to marry Arab men. And to top it all off we will have Saudi Arabia build the world's largest mosque next to your house with 30 muezzins using the world's most powerful loudspeakers
10. To #2 Cynthia
Yitzchak ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.08.10)
You know what makes me sick? People who live in other countries and refuse to live here feel they have a right to decide our fate and what is rascist. I moved here 22 years ago to have the right to express my opinion on internal Israeli matters. Until YOU move here you have no right to express an opinion. That you do "just makes me sick".
