1. Why is it only right-wing protests that are "provocative"?
(04.21.10)
But left-wingers and Arabs can protest against Jews in Sheikh Jarrah every week.
2. But when the left + arabs +palestinian flag march in Tel Avi
m   (04.21.10)
during the war in Gaza last year it's not "provocative"????
3. Why? why allow them to do this?
Talula ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
When all hell lets loose, it won't be them or their children trying to restore order. They make me sick!
4. LET THEM MARCH INTO THE LANDS INVADED BY THE FOREIGNERS
stude ham   (04.21.10)
there is no east jerusalem... there is only jerusalem... the berlinized geographical fantasy vanished years ago and is now one united and undivided city. let the foreign invaders know this.

7. Mohammedan Arab Occupation and Aggression over finally?
ArabOccupation ,   NorthAfrica, Levant   (04.21.10)
End the Arab occupation of non Arabian lands: Berber lands: Morrocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya Black African lands: Sudan, Nigeria, Kenya, Chad, Jewish land: Israel Kurdish land: Syria, northern Iraq, northwest Iran, eastern Turkey Phoenician, Christian land: Lebanon Assyrian land: Syria End the Arab occupation of others' historic lands!
8. "Maybe" a provocation, but still a right
William ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
I believe the "Nakba" protests and calls to dismantle the State are more of a provocation, against all its 7.5 million people.
9. Hagit Ofran, spinning lies again?
William ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
"The (rightists) want to turn Jerusalem into Hebron, where a handful of Jewish extremists force their will on the local population," First, the Rightists in Hebron did not force out Arab residents. There are many Arabs who still live in the city, own businesses, and worship at the Cave of the Patriarchs without incident. Jews were ethnically cleansed from Hebron, and parts of E. Jerusalem, which is a war crime, human rights crime, and needs to be reversed. If you can't even be slightly honest, Hagit, should you really be in the public eye promoting inequality?? Making a city or region population homogeneous is akin to Apartheid and should be banned. NO Arab-only cities!
10. Rights
Ricardo Macher ,   Karnei Shomron IL   (04.21.10)
Every citizen should be allowed to march through the streets of Jerusalem! I would really ask Peace Now and other self haters why it's OK the gay parade that is opposed by 90% of the city inhabitants but it's wrong for Jews who are not leftists to do the same! Nice kind of democracy you are proposing! All the rights to the people who think like me, nothing to whoever dares defy the powerful left! Luckily, every election you are less and less, and the old people who rule the country are naturally dissapearing, some day we will be again a Jewish State proud of being Jewish!!!
11. stop the arab occupation of israel
merfy   (04.21.10)
enough is enough. israeli's everwhere in israel is going to be the new reality
12. Yemenite Jews founded Kfar Shiloakh 1873; Arabized to Silwan
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (04.21.10)
Photo from 1886 shows it was a bare, uninhabited hillside still being founded by Yemenite Jews. Kfar Shiloakh is part of Ir David. See http://www.netzarim.co.il/Museum/Sukkah02/Sukkah02.htm#Silwan and www.cityofdavid.org.il/timeline_eng.asp Paqid Yirmeyahu Paqid 16, The Netzarim, Ra'anana, Israel Israeli Torah-reverer (& Orthodox Jew) Advocate for Logic as Hermeneutic Halakhic Authority Welcoming All Torah-reverers (Jews & non-Jews)
13. agree with #8. provacation yes, but a legal right- also yes.
(04.21.10)
14. #7 - You forgot the great Persian land
William ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
which was invaded and is still occupied by Arabs, who routinely destroy parts of the Persian culture and cities, and oppress the non-Muslim population, especially the B'hais.
15. #10 - This isn't just Peace Now, it's a "Left" disease
William ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
ALL Leftists abide by this mis-guided notion that they are superior and need to "think" for everyone else on the planet. They firmly believe that their ideals are absolute and only they should be given rights (making the rest of us out to be racists, oppressors, homophobes, and haters). It happens throughout Europe, and has taken a huge uptick in the US. This isn't just Peace Now but a true "Leftist" disease crawling across the globe...dividing people up by race, religion, sexual orientation, even education, and supporting despotic, often brutal, leaders.
16. #12 - THANK YOU Paqid
William ,   Israel   (04.21.10)
Share these types of facts more. We need the world to know the truth, not the doctored history by Arabs and Leftists with a hateful agenda. Kudos!
