1. Haaretz is clearly less interested in the security of Israel
Eitan ,   Givatayim, Israel   (04.09.10)
and much more in the well being of a journalist who has been using classified stolen information and then violated his agreement to return the data to Israel's security authorities. I have therefore cancelled my subscription to Haaretz - a Hebrew newspaper - and I would hope all would do the same if the safety and security of Israel, its citizens and soldiers is important to them. Haaretz has refused time and again to publish this post, and this is by a newspaper/site claiming to be liberal and open minded, and one designed for "thinking people".
2. Haaretz Is A Palestinian Arab Media Outlet
Armchair General ,   Wisconsin, USA   (04.09.10)
If you want to locate the source of the problem, it is not a case of following the money. In this case it is a matter of following Blau to his hideout, London. You can be sure MI6 has all the information on those CDs. Possibly other nations have it, too.
3. THE TOLLING BELL!
HERCULE SAVINIEN ,   EL CAJON SD CA USA   (04.09.10)
THE TOLLING BELL! [PART ONE] [All for One and One for All] Now, lets set the record straight as to how far any [State] will go to protect itself and the answer to that has been, is and always will be to whatever lengths are need, there are no limits that any [State] will take to ensure its survival. But, and there is always a But or and If contained in anything of real importance, so [BUT] those who are going to engage knowingly and willingly in illegal activities such as Water-boarding, today, the rape and Zippo of South Vietnamese Villages, yesterday, and the list goes on, those involved must be criminals cut from the same cloth, all for one and one for all, what we have done here stays here, and that is a matter that those running such criminal activities have to ensure are understood and all those involved in such criminal behavior must understand. [THE GREATER GOOD] So, just what happened with Anat Kamm, a reported from an Israeli newspaper, on [national duty leave] serving her [2] Two-Year military call up with the [IDF] Israeli Defense Force, and civilian reporter Uri Blau. There is no simple version of this, it is either they are guilt of espionage, against the State of Israel, or they are individuals who were at the wrong place at the wrong time, put between the choice of right and wrong, the rock and the hot place, having to choose between which served the greater good, both at a young age, in a very Gray Area, when the Supreme Court of Israeli says Thou Shall Not, and the [IDF] says Oh Yes We Shall, and then does what they shall, when they shall, as they shall, with the proof of their actions in the hands of one who didn’t sign on to breaking the Laws Of The State, for the Greater Good, at [23] Twenty-Three years old, do Uri and Anat close their eyes, like Sgt. Shultz of Hogan Hero’s I See Nothing, I Know Nothing, I Hear Nothing, and I’m Not Going To the Eastern Front? Or do these Israeli-Jewish Kids, act to the moral dictates they were raised to believe at [23] Twenty-Three? HERCULE TRIATHLON SAVINIEN
4. THE TOLLING BELL! [END PART]
HERCULE SAVINIEN ,   EL CAJON SD CA USA   (04.09.10)
THE TOLLING BELL! [END PART] [WHISTLE BLOWING OR ESPIONAGE] The Term Whistle Blowing and a person is a whistle blower is like watching the [BBC] British Broadcasting Company, and old movies were they pull out the only the most uniquely sound whistle in the word from a Bobby’s pocket as an alert to a criminal activity in progress, sounding the call for immediate assistance, Or, Deep Throat of the Richard Nixon [Smoking Gun]. Are these kids guilty of Whistle Blowing on Criminal Activity, or Espionage, how can you be a criminal if your reporting the activities of a criminal nature, or is it criminal to report it do to slipping it under a National Security Blanket. Now, we can buy have covert illegal activities, that break every law of civilized man, the [CIA] Central Intelligence Agency, [MI-6], and Mossad, every intelligence community are State Sanctioned Criminal Center of Operations, but those involved knowingly sign on to the jobs, but Anat Kamm, was not an enlistee but a draftee, into criminal activities, there was no choice, but once in a moral person should do what at [23] Twenty-Three, become a Sgt. Schultz of the State and lose a peace of themselves their youth, no longer basing decisions on a right vs wrong scale but one of necessity, [The Ends Justify The Means] is this the future the [21st] Century Dreamers, Thinkers, Workers, [NetCitizens], Israeli Jews and Non-Israeli Jews, [J] Street Jews, and the Omer Goldman Shministim members, are to be the care takers of, were not a Deist [We don’t believe in God], so we can only wish them good luck in a future world of Dog Eat Dog Existence, where the End Justifies the Means, the termination of men with extreme prejudice or [400] Four-Hundred Gaza innocent children, more interested in their toys than what anyone else is doing, so they won’t grow up to be terrorist, did anyone hear a Whistle or a Bell Tolling, Ask Not For Whome The Bell Tolls, It Tolls For Thee! HERCULE TRIATHLON SAVINIEN
5. He will be hiding under a rock like nastyrallah.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (04.09.10)
Both of them will be taken out of action, just wait and see.
6. however long it lasts, exradite him!
Marina Oliver ,   Tel Aviv   (04.09.10)
and then charge him with treason.
7. Extradite him and then try both him
(04.09.10)
and Anat Kam for treason, put them in jail, try the people who did not secure the documents for ineptitude, stupidity, carelessness and irresponsibility and put them in jail as well
8. TREASON
Daniel ,   Israel   (04.09.10)
Anat Kam, Uri Blau and Ha'aretz should be charged with treason under the laws of national security Haaretz should be boycotted.
9. At the same time, Haaretz ought to
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (04.09.10)
be banned from Israel and none of its journalists allowed to touch our ground! I don't think permitting sabotage in the name of liberty has much to be said for it.
10. In the meantime, close down Haaretz!
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (04.09.10)
11. Lots of Ways
Tony ,   Brooklyn, NY   (04.09.10)
to get him back to Israel. Just arrest some British reporters-most are MI6 agents anyway & throw them into some whole until the UK sends Blau home.
12. Left Wing Prosecution jails nationalistic 13-year-old girls
Jae ,   Lynn US   (04.09.10)
13-year-old girls from the nationalist camp into prison until the end of the proceedings, but traitors like blau & kam get soft pats on the head and absolved by the meretz cloned supreme court. Just watch you will see
13. Clearly this "journalist" is
Hertzel ,   Tveriah   (04.09.10)
advocating the theft of secret IDF documents by making it a part of his job to go after female soldiers (of weaker nature) that are working in the IDF "offfices" in order to harm Israel's security. This "reporter" is a spy, no more no less and he and his employer MUST BE STOPED NOW! CLOSE HAARETZ NOW!!!!!
14. put him in jail for life !!!
robert cohen ,   jerusalem   (04.09.10)
15. Give them to Syria and get support from International Public
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (04.09.10)
You cannot return a journalist for having classified material especially from Israel. Nobody in this world would depart him to Israel unless Israel operates to capute him.
16. Can't come home
Susan ,   Kfar Saba   (04.09.10)
I they don't manage to extradite him, he will never be able to come home again. That is punishment enough.
17. Ha'aretz, Jstreet, PLO, PLA,
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (04.09.10)
It seems that they are all against us. The Left and liberal factions seemed to have joined with our enemies to bring about our defeat whether in war or in peace.
18. Look what happens
plus ca change   (04.09.10)
to an insecure girl looking for love and attention....
19. Thank them!
Elisabeth ,   NL   (04.09.10)
It is not as if Kam and Blau provided information on the IDF that could get IDF soldiers killed: They revealed that your army is corrupt and no longer obeys the High Court. I would think that would be something to worry about. Don't attack Kam and Blau; thank them and make sure the IDF gets its act cleaned up. Or would you like to wake up in a full-blown police state one of these days?
20. #19
Madeleine ,   Israel   (04.09.10)
British and U.S. military are no better, and probably far worse. How many "mistaken" bombings have they executed in Afghanistan with a mere "oh sorry", afterwards. You hear of any international ruckus after those? thanks to our enemise who surround us on eveyr front, Israel is in a perpetual state of war and has been since the end of the British Mandate in 1948. Security considerations are much more stringent in such times as I'm sure you will find out if you take a look at U.S. and British archives from the time of the Second World War.
21. #16 Not so sure
ich wayss nisht   (04.09.10)
Family connections ....
22. It's time to put HaAretz out of its misery
redbourn ,   Arad, Israel   (04.09.10)
HaAretz has for years done Israel international damage, not just by its extreme left wing articles but by highly censoring its talk-backs thereby giving the impression that Israelis almost unanimously supported its sick and treacherous views. This latest episode exposes it for what it is! If you have a subscription to HaAretz then cancel it. Don't ever buy a hardcopy. And don't ever visit it website which will causes it to lose advertising revenue. The treasonous rag called HaAretz is on its knees, and we can now give it the final coup de grace. Mike
23. #20 Armed forces do not rule, they serve
Elisabeth ,   NL   (04.09.10)
If an army starts taking the law into its own hands, that is cause for serious worry in a democracy. I fail to see what bombings in Afganistan or the US and British WW2 archives have to do with that.
24. If he ends up like Tennenbaum with Hezbollah ,don't exchange
ab   (04.09.10)
him for terrorists! He chose his own way ,just like narco-dealer Tennebaum did.
25. who finances his stay abroad?who finances Kam`s lawyers?
Halxa Hamedina ,   Israel   (04.09.10)
26. I have sent a fax to Ha'aretz, cancelling my sub.
Nina ,   Tel-Aviv   (04.09.10)
27. Passing on information can be patriotic
Elisabeth ,   NL   (04.09.10)
Everything published in Israel is checked by a military censor. (Kam gave the information to a journalist from an Israeli newspaper, not a foreign newspaper.) You have enough security checks in place. And it is not for nothing that Kam's materials were considered OK for publication by the military censor, as they revealed corruption. It is in the interest of the country that such behavior in the army gets punished.
28. #26 - Better late than never! Well done!
redbourn ,   Arad, Israel   (04.09.10)
29. Don't bother bringing him home, treat him like al-Mahbhou
Nemesis   (04.09.10)
30. I am sure that many of the furious, incensed "talkbackers"
Erastus CoupeDeVille ,   Ong's Hat, NJ USA   (04.09.10)
on this and other media are, curiously, supportive of J. Pollard's release. Just sayin'.
