u r disgusting. to accept money from israel you are willing. to represent them..............YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOUR BEHAVIOR. I HOPE N PRAY YOUR FILM NEVER MAKES IT. Mrs. Livnat - you "okayed" the money... WHY???????RESIGN!!!!!!!!

He's creating a controversy before the Academy Awards hoping to use the movie for his political agenda. He obviously forgot this movie would not be possible without funding from the Israeli film industry, artistic direction from his Israeli co-director and that he owes respect to the Jewish and Arab actors hoping for recognition on their own merit from this film. Selfish, short-sighted move on his part. His moment in the sun casts a dark cloud.

Ajami is an Israeli film.. It's true we are discriminated against and rejected by the state.. however, it is thanks to the state he got to work on this movie and convey his message to the world

Bummer how bending over for terrorists isn't a sure thing in Jewish Hollywood. Get your buddies out of the weapon's business and make your own system instead of sucking off ours and then biting our hand.

since hollywood is mostly jewish, at least the big shots...they sure showed you the door. you lost. so did your propaganda lying movie about israel. since most americans, 80% of them support israel and love it, your images in ajami were lies and they know it. you lost because your propaganda movie was not only disgusting, but also a lie to the extreme. now, since you do not represent israel and visa versa, please return all the jewish israeli money that uspported your disgusting lying project and movie. if you think that america and hollywood buys your propaganda, you are mistaken...as evidenced by your loss. loser!

We do not need people like Copti going on a world podium to debase Israel. After he said what he said I was praying that the film not win the award. Israel's democracy needs some readjustments - why do we support or employ Israel haters?

This individual has received a lot of money from the taxpayers of the State of Israel, and now he is bitting the hand that gave he the $$$. I think that he don´t deserve the right to return to Eretz Israel, he must go to any Arab country.... By the way, don´t worry with that movie Ajami, BECAUSE a movie produced in my country, "El secreto de sus ojos", won the award of "Better movie in a foreign language" :-) Regards from Argentina. . .

is bandied about by Arabs in the mideast, in Europe and North America, as if there is no doubting the truth of it. It has also been an effective propaganda tool amongst the left leaning non-Arab population as well as a bevy of niave students. But let's look at the term, "apartheid": Gender discrimination and horrible penalties for homosexual sexual orientation are common in the Arabic countries of the mideast but not in Israel. No one but Arab Muslims are allowed to immigrate to Arab countries and become citizens but not so in Israel. Laws against non-Muslims owning property are prevalent in Arab countries but in Israel all people, Jews, Muslims and Christians alike, may own property. In Israel, all education and medical services are available to the 20% Muslim population just as these services are available to all the rest of the population. Is that evidence of "apartheid"? Hopefully, Nour, you will make an opportunity for yourself to visit Jerusalem, Haifa and Acre, Israeli cities with proportionately large Arab populations. You will find Jews and Arabs eating in the same restaurants, attending the same recreational and cultural centres and sometimes, surprise, actually socializing with one another. I don't mean to state that integration of the two largest ethnic elements which comprise Israel, Arabs and Jews, is what we'd like it to be but it's such a far cry from "apartheid" that the term has no sensible bearing of life in Israel. For more information, I would invite you to proceed to the website of Alan Dershowitz who has written a fine article on the subject.
