1. :: ...and the British police...
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (04.29.10)

Michael Hess ,   Charlotte, NC   (04.29.10)

(04.29.10)
5. prosor said
bandora etrog ,   london   (04.29.10)
presumably mr prosor was speaking about the rampaging settlers when he remarked: "This is a lawlessness whose damaging effects are already being felt in the short term, and whose effects in the long term may be irreversible"
6. The UK is an arab nation
Morris ,   USA   (04.29.10)
The UK apparently encourages virulent anti-Semitism and violence towards Israelis and Jews, especially at its universities. It is no longer a civilized nation and deserves to boycotted by all Jews worldwide.
7. Horrible security
David Zimbalist ,   NJ USA   (04.29.10)
How does the Israeli government send its diplomats out unprotected
8. disgusting
Duchess   (04.29.10)
Such primitive behavior. What would they have done if not stopped? They are wild, reckless, hateful and dumb. It hurts their image more than it hurts anyone else. They should live in a jungle and not in Britain.
9. British protesters...
Prof. Dr. Ekkehard Stegemann ,   Basel, Switzerland   (04.29.10)
What a shame! What a hystery! May Brits get rid of this shameful anti-Semitism-/anti--Israelism.
10. Europe Will be majority Mid Eastern and Paki
Rod ,   Fargo N.Dakota   (04.29.10)
In 40 Yrs, see German bureau of statistics report.In many cities of Europe the under 20 populous is already none European Muslim
11. B"H We want Jewish looking, Jewish thinking diplomats! Not
thes goy looking ,   ones with ties   (04.29.10)
12. To #1
Ben ,   London   (04.29.10)
Are you serious? Managed to handle? You call this managed? These savages jumped on the car and brutally attacked diplomat, for such crime they had to be arrested. The British police are cowards and they afraid of being called a racist so much so they dont touch these savage criminals. If they these people were from BNP or EDL the police would beat the shit out of them.
13. To the protesters: It must be difficult
shrinkDave ,   Miami USA   (04.29.10)
for you to watch the Egyptians barricade fellow Arabs in the Gaza and then kill 4 of them yesterday. Do you plan to boycot Egyptian academics? Of course not. Why? Well, one thing for certain, the Egyptians aren't Jews. Secondly, Egyptians don't deal well with freedom of speech, and you could very well find yourself in deep trouble. Your attempts to interupt freedom of speech just show the world what you are really about. Hypocritical, tyranical, antisemitic, anti-free speech rabble rousers who have no influence on anything but the impotent British.
14. Not a word about this
Linichka ,   Gdynia, Poland   (04.29.10)
on BBC - unsurprisingly. Guess they are saving face? The region's sole story on the website is something touchy-feely about the UN providing Gaza urchins with laptops. Hope they don't launch the batteries.at us.
15. #2 rewritting hx
uas   (04.29.10)
You forget history. The arabs attacked Israel in 1967 threatening to drive Israel into the sea. The arabs lost creating the “Disputed” territories. The arabs remain at war with Israel. Article 12 of the “moderate” Abbas’ Fatah Party charter states their goal of “Complete liberation of Palestine, and eradication of Zionist economic, political, military and cultural existence.” Article 19 states: “….this struggle will not cease unless the Zionist state is demolished and Palestine is completely liberated.” An olive branch has been presented with vile as the response.
16. how do you like thoes potatoes-here's reality
yakov ,   jer is   (04.29.10)
after years of israeli' try and beat us if you can or just shut up we dont care we're stronger' heres a dose of reality for you and its going to keep happening no matter if you cry to daddy its not fair as all bullies do when they get a taste of their own medicine.
17. Matty Groves
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (04.29.10)
It's to bad you couldn't have been in that car to see what it feels like. I'm sure if you had been, you would have wanted to peacefully sit there and see what would happen. We must not hurt the poor violent unarmed protesters must we?
18. Just Another Day...
Erich ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (04.29.10)
...in Londonstan, Eurabia.
19. what was she expecting?
(04.29.10)
20. Their acts reveal their nature
RayS ,   USA   (04.29.10)
Pro-Palestinian demonstrators ,as well as Palastinians in Gaza, Israel and the "west bank", demonstrate by their behavior that they are not to be trusted as neighbors, Israel can't abide a State of such people in close proximity.. When they can learn to behave as civilized human beings, THEN will be a time to reconsider. Perhaps 50 or 100 years from now.
21. I'm sure that these people..
Paul ,   USA   (04.29.10)
lunged at Lador - Fresher, merely because they wanted shake her hand, and congratulate her for her speech. What a bunch of uncivilized barbarians ! Too bad the British police officers were afraid to knock a few skulls together - the only language they understand.
22. Re #14
RayS ,   USA   (04.29.10)
The BBC has no time available to discuss "incidents" like this. They are to busy will normal anti-Israel, anti-USA programing. What a sad waste of what could be a great educational plus for free speech and civilized behavior.
23. Off to English class with you, yakov.
Cameron ,   USA   (04.29.10)
24. #13 Well said
factsconfuse   (04.29.10)
Islamic anti-democratic protesters fair best in democratic settings. Arab nations, including the Palestinians, have a very effective way of dealing with protest: they open fire on students, break the legs of Fatah supporters in Gaza and throw them of buildings and so on and so on.
25. The Attackers
Brod ,   USA   (04.29.10)
are Islamist-Jihadist thugs. It is time for the Free World to disinfect themselves from this scourge.
26. It is obvious
Chris Linthwaite   (04.29.10)
that the safety of Israel's diplomats in London can no longer be guaranteed. The Israeli Embassy should be closed aod it's staff evacuated immediately, and all ties should be severed. It is obvious that London is now an Islamic Republic.
27. Yes, thats how they manipulate democracy
Jane   (04.29.10)
for fascist acts.
28. Protests
Norm ,   Golden Valley, MN   (04.29.10)
Democracy took a hit by these protests. Apparently some people think that freedom of speech means freedom to agree with them. The people of Britain should take note of what's in store for them if people like these protestors get their way. They have a lot in common with the Nazi thugs of the thirties.
29. shouldnt these people be arrested???
noam ,   israel   (04.29.10)
30. US College Irvine has this all time, no American talkbacks?
Adam ,   Tel Aviv   (04.29.10)
denial or what?? In fact I read the story and there was 3 comments, 1 was from an American. I dont understand the obsession with what the Brits do, yet ignore the anti Israeli on your door step.. Didnt the Jewish agency last week choose UK over America to home a few hundred Yemen Jews, because they feared their safety in the USA..
Next talkbacks
