Alan has been hearing the voices for a very long time... from nail holes in walls, passing dogs, fallen tree branches, cracks in the sidewalk... they whisper to him all the time, especially in the dark as he lays on his bed, after wetting it.

How very easy to be an armchair zionist sitting in the comfort of the US dictating to others on the other side of the world how to run their lives, Making descisions that affect our lives not his. Yet where was he when the bombs were dropping? He cant even commit to making aliah.

a man of truth, as for Ynet useing a pictur of lil girl to get cheap sympathy is lame, especialy when it's for propeganda use, sound like the blood liable of someone I won't mention who, children shouldn't be political punching bag, this article isn't on the children of gaza and even than their picture will be bluerd the very fact that you connect it make me vomit. care to do the women and children artikle.

The projection of Israeli weakness under the false peace Roafd Map has done great damage and not brought Israel closer to peace. All the goodwill gestures,begging,retreat, surrender and crawling for peace has had the opposite of the intended result. Israel has made itself the target because cowards will never attack threatening,brutal,repressive Islam for fear of losing their heads. They will attack Israel ,it's less costly and much easier to do.

you r talking from experience right. :P

i for one am very grateful for the work of Dershowitz and his willingness to stand up for Israel. his advice is right on and i too have thought that israel does not di enough to fight back from all the slander hurled against by slef hating Jews like chomsky and finklestein. I simply do not understand how these so called jews, like goldstone, can use their being Jewsih tohurt Israel. These are sick dangerous people who clearly have emotional issues that preclude them operating nirmally. Go alan Go, keep up the good work and the good fight .. we are all with you.

I suppose it was convenient for Hamas and Hezbollah that Israel was willing to supply them with those dead children.

It is very tiresome to be bombarded continuously by those in our community with a pathological need for media attention (e.g. the Dershowitz's and Foxmans and Weisels and their like.) Hasnt Dershowitz's "sell by" date long since passed?

The guy is a nutcase and loosing steam big time. The more he speaks, the more he validates the case against Israel with his nonsense. No matter what Israel does; legal, illegal, kill, destroy and steal; according to Dershowitz it's ok, why: because it's Israel. Anyone dares to criticize Israel will be labeled as a self hating Jew by this nutcase Dershowitz

Many Left Wing organizations are funded by the EU and UK and indirectly or clandestinely by the United States Government aka state department and possibly CIA . Until that is exposed and investigated anti Israel paranoia will continue. Also many universities are getting more and more money from the Arab world. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com

eager to demonize Israel, to de-legitimize it, to demand of it to live by standards not expected of any other country under similar circumstances. And thanks to those parts of the American Jewish community who sustain such an organization, as they do of the so called Americans for Peace Now and Rabbis for Human Rights, all of which organizations add daily fuel to the Islamist and "Progressive" machinery that works overtime in pushing for the day on which Israel will be a thing of the past... So, thank you "friends"...

It is amazing to find among the talkbackers here people who insult this great man and denigrate his work in loving defense of Israel. What are you people? Have you no shame? Why do you hate your own country and people so much? Look into your sick souls and find some way to cure yourselves. Stop your self-destructive self-hatred.

A Jew may live wherever he wishes. In that huge tangle of streets called Jerusalem, that artistic city Hebron, or that Tel Aviv on Steroids called New York. A zionist is not defined by where he lives but by what he does. And Dershowitz is a great ambassador. As for the photo, funny how you did not show pictures of wounded Israelis in Sderot or homes pierced by rockets from Gaza. Shame on the editor. That is like talking about the holocaust but showing pictures of Dresden.

they dont whisper because finkelstein might hear it, they do, because - in the meantime - most people connect "israel" with "occupation" ! seriously: how do you expect an american, french, german etc to "defend" the occupation, when not even BIBI can ! ("...its like building in tel aviv", "..not a settlement"... and mitchell still travels forth and back to solve the "problem"...) sadly, mr dershowitz didnt understand the reason of their "whispers"... just to put things into an relation (in my opinion), so fictive numbers: when 50 % in the whole world "support" israel (and that is much, who does "support" switzerland ?), it would be 90 % when the occupation thing was resolved... good that bibis zigzag hasnt hit the world news so far, because then the 50 % would decrease to 30 %. also, mr dershowitz accuses the extreme leftists of one-eyed-criticism. he does do the same: he fully leaves out valid criticisim of the extreme right. so he is an extreme rightist ?

How refreshing to hear reasoned and truthful comments on Israel. Yes it is true - it has become unfashionable to say so , but it is true. Tthe Jewish haters of Israel are the children of he rabble who left with the Jews from Egypt during the Exodus. Their fathers caused Moshe unbelievable trouble then and their children do so to us day. They hide themselves as Jewish liberals and do gooders and those with a Conscience. They are pork eaters and none associate with the jewish comunity abroad. They only do good for our enemies. It is they who our are real enemies. Thank you Alan for exposing them in public again. We need to wake up and fight them all the way , exposing their shamefulness again and again. Chomsky and the others of his kind.

Let's not forget the massive Arab aid that is out there also going to international groups against Israel and Israel's own leaders such as Barak Livni and Peres who rush to criticize Israel and beg for peace with appeasement. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com

One thing though: we don't read YNET (kol filistin) to find the truth about Israel. Keep you friends close and your enemies closer

Dershowitz has gone completely off the rails. Instead of rationally thinking thorough the issue, he now rails against alll who disagree with him as 'antisemitic'. He even wishes to blame academia when their historical findings disagree with the hoary myths he espouses. He is 'praised' by unknown 'staff members'. Free speech advocates are awful people because their free speech rights protect them against the ad hominem attacks made by people who advocate for a different vision for Israel and deplore the racist state Israel has become. Finkelstein, Chomsky, Atzmon are the enemy. I suppose so is Levy, Hass, Eldar and anyone else who states that Israel shoul,ld be treated as any other counttry, that it should not get special dispensation merely because it holds itself out as a 'Jewish' state. Actually, Dershowitz has beecome a master of promoting himself and failed ideas. Since his arguments are so unpersuasive, he has resorted to paranoid fantasies of persecution. Its a pity when a Harcard law professor becomes a pathetic buffoon.

Jewish terror in the 3-week onslaught on Gaza (2008-09) is equivalent to more than 100 nine elevens (9/11) in a matter of 2 weeks, that is one 9/11 in Gaza every 6 hours.

To #1. Hey Rastus, a real constructive comment! You and # 2 are level-headed guys devoted to clear understanding of the issue (not).

Nobody can say that what Jewish comedians have done for a hundred years with their Jewish version of the "blackf face" was and is not anti semitism. Mel Brooks is a lasting reminder of such slander, of making the Jew a joke. Read Englander's short story of a group of Jews running to escape the Nazis and end up performing as a traveling acrobatic troupe in front of the Nazis elite, they were so bad they were not thought to be Jews but to be making fun of the Jews, right up the Nazi's alley.

A message to mr dershowitz,please keep exposing the criminal double speak against the state of israel > People only use the negative stuff because it gets good press and the arabs have manipulated this so much that people like the negative stuff and keep on reading it. But we need to change the information comeing across, what about the good stuff, the 7.5 million stories each day that emanate from the holy land, do we,or must we speak of the poor palestines and blame the state of israel for all there suffering each day,of cause we dont, they bring more suffering to themselves via there own dictators who have railroaded them especially the terrorist parasites in gaza. One day when this ends , the palestines will have lots of explaining to do especially the criminals who killed jews for the purpose of makeing a mere statement, if jews were not supposed to take there land back from the arab world, why are they back there now, are the palestines completly blinded by there beleifs.

roundabout way... Dershowitz's self inflated ego makes him believe that his Israel-first opinions are legally bullet-proof and politically unquestionable by the great unwashed gentile masses. I see him as someone who needs deflation... he needs to pull that large kosher cork out of his anus.

But there is no excuse for Arab mothers to love seeing their children die. It just does'nt serve my somewhat perverted idea of peace.

on his own expence you say thank you, you should learn manners.

but gaza was war, 11/9 was murder one, you see in war 2 need to fight, as the reality showed Hamas shoot rocket Israel retaliated :) but since than we heard on other terror attacks in the usa, like the texas. and two weeks ago car bomb.

Israel didn't created the refugee camps, or the situation, they had too many oppertunities to make peace, but since all te initiative for peace r from the Israeli side while palis refuse it and even colaborated with the natzi regim in europe than they diserve to be in this miserable situation.

"bagel and lox" Jews who bow down even to his hostile attitude and actions against the Jewish state.

Amazing how many left wing groupies are hogging this talkback. Wonder which groups some of these left wing anti Israel talk-backers are working for?
