Drop him in the center of Tel Aviv, we'll take care of him.

Why Israel tolerates these treasonous outcasts is beyond me. Deport them to Iran where they will be welcome.

these individuals do not deserve to be able to go the Kotel or any other religous site because they are traitors to the state and actively act against Israel's best interests. We should not tolerate their violation of the moment of silance for the individuals wh gave their life to give them freedom of speech. Its time for the government to shut these people down .. they are entitled to free speech but when they act agains the interst of the State, as they did in this instance then deportation is the answer for those who act out. That will put the rest of these animals back in line.

While I don't advocate burning the Israeli flag, still it appears that his arrest (if it is only for burning the Israeli flag) is a flagrant violation of his rights to free speech. Where are the human rights groups here? Do the liberals only support their own kin or can they see that this is a free speech issue?

Neuturei Karta cause most of the problems. Please print this article... Memorial Day Ceremony Held in Bnei Brak http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/184681

I am a bit shocked that they let these non-Jews demonstrate like this in Jerusalem. Where are all the chachchachim, arsim to defend the criminal demonstration? If I was walking in Jerusalem and I saw this in front of my eyes, I don't know what I would do, but I'm sure I'll be arrested for torching one of them in flames. A lot of them are not even Israelis, so send the ones that are not back home to where they came from.

Just a bunch of crazy lunatics.

This man did something offensive, but is he the only one? Leftists and Arab Israelis burn flags, but they are not arrested. In any case, is what he did really that bad? What about Walla journalist Anat Kam stealing and selling state secrets that can lead to the deaths of soldiers? Or Haaretz journalist Blau's keeping these documents? Or Walla journalist Sahar Vardi demanding to use Memorial Day to honor the Arab terrorists who murdered Jews? Or Haaretz journalist Uri Tuval who mocked hero Eliraz Peretz Z"L and his grieving mother less than a week after his death in battle? Give me Neturei Karta any day.

not Jews.Kick them out from Israel and send them to Gaza or Afghanistan.Shame on them

It is only in the USA that burning a flag is considered "free speech". As for Israel, here almost anybody knows somebody who has died defending the country. The flag represents the country therefore they symbolize the burning of Israel. I know that it is difficult for you to understand coming as you do from LA-LA land....

Stop support those parasites trough Bituch Leumi. Why only one was arested?

I'd love to see what would happen to you if you burnt the American flag then stamped on it in public. Let's see where free speech will get you. Asswipe.

only the neturei karta are more dangerous.

I study in a Haredi yeshiva. My rabbi cried when he read this. Utter violation of Torah law. What ever happened to love your fellow as yourself? It is a sin to disrespect someone in their morning. Rabbenu Avraham talks so much about this in his Sefer HaMaspik (part 4 chapter 5). These people need to learn Torah and I pray to God they realize their sins.

the 22,684 that died. What a tosser you are. All the others should be locked up until they die.

"Also on Memorial Day eve, a group of about 20 haredi Jews celebrated a birthday at Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park"

talk about callous. remembering the deaths of fellow jews, for whatever reason, is not even worthy of respect. even israeli muslims do better than this on days like these.

Send them to Iran and the mad mullah will find virgins wives.

You must comdenm Naturei Karta when they make attacks on gay community or such things,but for burning a flag?, that´s not violence against people.

Lary , dont be naive . I would like to see u byrning american flaf in your free speech country. u will probably rot in a jail , not finishing PhD degree or MSc like all those terrorists in Israeli jail. (see the murder Barguti finishing Ph D degree in Cairo University in Israeli jail.)

I am completely agree with you. I am wondering why didn't anyone stop him doin this.

your statement doesn't address the underlying issue. Just because there may be an idiot or two or two million who would do something stupid doesn't change the fact that everyone has the right to practice free speech. Because it doesn't conform t your idea of right and wrong doesn't mean he can't or shouldn't say it.

Comparing haaretz, blau, kam and these jerks is a difference without distinction. There is no difference except that Haaretz, blau and kam try to hide behind freedom of the press. They think they can decide what is a war crime or state secret and if they disagree then they are free to expose the State. Ita apathetic rationalization that suits elites liberals who alwyas know what is right and wrong. Haaretz's editorial policy is vile and their attempt to portray themsleves as loyal Israelis who want to help the state by tearing it down is about a sick a philosophy as i can imagine. All of these jokes are just tools for arabs and Israeli bashers to further their efforts to deligimatize Israel as a state. And when the next war comes they will be extolling the virtues of the IDF until afterwards when they go back into attack mode. Haaretz, Blau, Kam, Neturei .. have you no shame?

If they want to recognize Israels right to exist and want to burn flags fine do it on Yom Hatzmaut not Yom Hazikaron. When the arabs decide to blow up busses or try and invade and destroy Israel do these people think they would say well your NK you don't believe in Israels right to exist so we won't blow you up? If it hadn't been for the IDF soldiers whose deaths they can't even show a little respect for these NK people & members of their families might be dead. At the very least they should look on these men & women who gave their lives to protect them as dead jews and as jews they deserve respect. Nobody asks them to light a candle or attend memorial services, we don't even ask them to stand when the sirens ring but we have a right to DEMAND they do not start clapping and burning flags when the sirens ring celebrating the deaths of JEWS. Celebrating the fact that jews have died and going to Gaza for Shabbat to make a political statement are not the actions of a God fearing jew. Any Torah observent jew would do any of these things no matter what their political views. Just 1 secular jewish soldier who didn't observe any of the rules is worth more than all of these so called orthodox NK scum put together. Since they love the palestinians in Gaza so much then deport them. They belong with muslim terrorists rather than jews.

Israel, and many other (democratic and liberal) countries don't. There's always a shaky balance between upholding the nation-state as part of collective identity and values and the freedoms of the individual. In our case, we consider flag-burning as something that crosses the line between personal freedom and harming the rest of society - there are better ways to express yourself and your opinions.

If i am not mistaken the US supreme court ruled that burning a flag is considered free speach,the irony is that the neturey shikra (the false guardians)and the satmars base their oppossision to a Jewish state on a Talmudic ruling,that the Jews swore 3 vows,#1 not to rebel against the nations of the world #,2 not to ascend the wall,which means to emigarate on mass and rebuild the land of Israel, # 3 not to rush the redemtion,the Talmud is basing the ruling on a verse from the song of songs written by king Solomon an idol woshiper,who had many gentile vives,and had a poetic soul, and this is the script:I conjure you daughters of Jerusalem by the gazelles of the field (who know a thing or two about love) do not avaken love before it's time,this ruling was written at a time when many hot heads wished to retake the land of Israel by force,so the sages realized the danger of such a rebelion and came up with the idea of the 3 vows, but a loophole was openned,that the nations of the world also took a vow,not to preasure the Jews to hard, unfortunately it is obvious that the nations of the world did not keep their part of the the deal,so,a Jewish state was already justified during the crusades when hundreds of Jewish communities were desrtoyed in Franco Germany,poland 1648,Petlura,during the civl war in Russia,and certainly after Germany exterminated the Jews of Europe,but there are some people who adhere to another script: I love my master and will not go free,and they have plenty of time to demonstrate against the state of Israel and burn the flag ,because they don't work,who is helping them and who is financing them ?.

If you feel the need, maybe go back to where you came and burn your country's flag there. Our flag represents over 23,000 people who died and for a State that has a right to exist. You thick Loser.
