31. WHY IS A MEMBER IS ISRAELS GOVT ON THAT SHIP TO BEGIN WITH?
Andrew ,   Miami,FL   (06.01.10)
32. And of course, the video footage is fake.
Roman ,   Lod, Israel   (06.01.10)
Has to be. What else would make sense, eh? Self-identified Palestinian MK's of Israel see all, hear all, and *never* lie!
33. @ nr 11. Brian from Tel Aviv
Bar ,   All around the world   (06.01.10)
People are allowed to express their opinion since Israel is a democracy. Are you blind? Israel is not perfect, which is normal because no country is. If citizens of Israel cannot even criticise their own country anymore than what will happen to the world? Never forget that people who are not allowed to express their opinion will feel supressed and this will only increase hate towards Israel. To cover up every criticism towards Israel, is only going to destroy Israel.
34. Evidence on video show the opposite.
JO   (06.01.10)
peace activists that want no confrontation they were not. This group did not even let the soldiers on the boat- they began immediately with violence. Predicable politics from this MK who is not knowing for loving Israel. I just wish some Arab MKs had the guts to say it as the evidence is- but no. They use politics and Israeli immunity ( and taxmoney) to rattle their stuff. She is following Tibi's footsteps easily. Sad
35. she is an MK? Still?! Traitor should be her title.
Debbie ,   Israel   (06.01.10)
36. THIS IS WHAT ZOABI HAD HOPED FOR...
stude ham   (06.01.10)
and oh how she relishes the deaths of those who had been suckered into this ill conceived mission. her knesset privileges must be rescinded shredded and deleted. we cannot have internal enemies at our highest levels of government.
37. Wanted deaths
Rivkah ,   Israel   (06.01.10)
That's why the IDF boarded the boat with paintball guns, unlike when the Arabs board anything Israeli with bombs, guns and what ever else they can. www.yeshabulletin.com
38. If that was true we would have killed all passengers!
ARIK   (06.01.10)
One bomb is sufficient for that. And none of the soldier woukd have died
39. Not single, 30 of them!
(06.01.10)
40. you really think the woman is THAT dense and so disconnected
Nadia   (06.01.10)
you really think the woman is THAT dense and so disconnected from technology and the news that she hadn't seen the Israel-released video that is splattered over every news article concerning this incident? there is an explanation for this aspect of her account not lining up with the 'videos' released by Israeli government, absolutely, it's just a matter of time before a thorough unbiased investigation reveals what it is.
41. Liar liar pants on fire
Shaul R ,   USA   (06.01.10)
42. the woman has delegitimized herself as a witness
zionist forever   (06.01.10)
There was not a single passenger who raised a club. We put on our life vests. There were no clubs or anything of the sort. This speech of hers makes her look like a fool who we shouldn't believe because we have video evidence of the soldiers being lynched with iron bars. We saw a soldier being thrown over the side by the mob ( passengers ). " We are part of the palestinian people " Thats probably the only true thing she says in her little speech and we should let her into Gaza and never let her back If she is a palestinian she will be happy living amongst her own in Hamastan rather than amongst nasty jews who hate arabs.
43. WE WANT JUSTICE
Eddie ,   K Ata   (06.01.10)
I dont want Betrayors in my goverment as like as thousands like me.MUST STOP this .Put those fanatic arabs to jail,or depart those from our beloved country.we are tired from disjustice.those who didnt come to work today as a participation in islamic protest MUST GET THEMSELF FIRED-there was no any law not to come at work.No was a day of griev that i noticed...WE WANT SOME F..n JUSTICE at ISRAEL.
44. #'s 28 and 33
Brian ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (06.01.10)
#28 why would I have hard feelings, I have no idea what your even talking about, and I doubt yo do either, I could care less if Egypt opened it's border with gaza, why is everyone always attacking Israel, and not Egypt? That's the question. #33 She is a member of this government, who was taking part in actions against our government, not to mention a propagandist, and a traitor. Lying is not an expression of opinion, there is only one truth, and she is obviously not repressed(not supressed dummy) she is an MK in our government. We don't try and cover up criticism of our government, the post of mine your responding to is a criticism I made towards our government, she is not anything but an enemy of our state openly working towards our destruction, admits this openly and should be removed from her position, and you probably have no idea who she even is. Your just plain silly.
45. Thanks Hanin Zoabi
David ,   Syracuse, NY   (06.01.10)
...for trying to break the illegal siege/occupation, and for speaking truth to power.
46. insanity
hannah ,   nyc, usa   (06.01.10)
Just how many MK's were in the flotilla? How can that not be considered a treasonous act, and those involved not imprisoned and tried? Why does Israel allow this?
47. BRAKING A SIEGE=PROVOCATION
SY ,   NY, NY   (06.01.10)
I know that you have limited intellect Ms. Zoabi, but by breaking a siege, you are entering a war zone and are causing provocation. Why don't you ride a boat into Yemen and help your slaughtered brothern there?! You should be stripped of your MK title and thrown in a Gazan jail.
48. Why am I paying her salary?
Simon ,   Poleg   (06.01.10)
Why am I paying this woman's salary. She's a MK. She has committed treason and should be tried and punished. How can a criminal hold public office?
49. knesset
ami ,   israel   (06.01.10)
All the arab knesset members are full of hatred and only want the defeat of israel when will the knesset stop to let them go to arabcountrys tell lies about us and through them out
50. Lies and deception
Jo ,   Ramat Gan   (06.01.10)
we we're crucified even before the truth came out... and showing complete disregard to the facts. Our soldiers could had died back there, it was not a peacfull opposition , they actually tried to kill our men! Shame on the blood-thirsty lying arab world, not one decent enough to even to relate the attack on our soldiers (or even admitting that for more than an hour, our ships were in constant communications with the turkish ships) Turky, you just publicly enterd the most hated-blood-thirsty-impervious club in the world - extrimist muslam nations and united army. For a war, Do your worst. We have faith in our god and our freedom. May there be a time when your eyes be free from your religion-leaders to see how wrong was of them to twist such a humble and ancient religion as the Islam to an unstopping blood raged cult.
51. shes liar
go ,   united state   (06.01.10)
send her to gaza and let hamas eat her ------
52. deport her to gazza
gadi ,   israel   (06.01.10)
Deport her to gazza,what is she still doing here in Israel.she don't belong here.
53. IDF videos look fake
Noel   (06.01.10)
54. The soldiers were hardly ambushed
Noel   (06.01.10)
The videos raise more questions than they answer. The soldiers could clearly see the people on the deck, and yet they kept coming down their ropes. Why were no IDF soldiers killed in what looked like brutal attacks? or were the attacks staged for the video cameras? Why did they attackers stop so quickly? Why did the attackers not use the guns on the soldiers? These attackers had ample opportunity to cause alot of harm to the soldiers, yet no soldiers were even seriously injured. These videos look like the Israeli propaganda machine in action. Where is the independent footage of the IDF storming of the boats? Why was all communication blocked during the IDF storming? Independent verification would have supported the Israeli story, but of course there is no verfication.
55. THE TRUTH: EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHE IS SAYING
Scott   (06.01.10)
This woman is a liar , just one of many that even after the evidence is now seen around the world - of 'peace activists' belting the life out of others with iron bars - still wants us to believe the opposite. Quite frankly, there must be limits to democracy and this MK should be thrown out of the Knesset. She is a 100% traitor and a subversive - actively working against the State.
56. They are trying to break us.
Joe Dempsey ,   Portland, Or.   (06.01.10)
And broken you shall be, sweetheart !
57. And the Knesset of Israel pays for such an enemy to seat in
Keren ,   IL-BR   (06.01.10)
its Parliament?? Isn't this an absurd? If Palestinians are her people and not Israelis(including Jews of course-(sarcasm)),what is she sitting and being payed by Jews,mainly? She MUST be deported to Gaza,where live the people to whom her complete loyalty stands. Please,Israel,take her house,put it to be auctioned and deport her to Gaza.This is the right thing to do. Do the same with all arab traitors living in Israel.Let in only loyal ones ! Give them just one example and we will see them calm down ,not to be kicked out as well. And,give the chance to arab MK's to struggle in the means to put and end in terrorist Gaza by distributing that people to one of their brothers coutries.They could be sent to Dubai for example,an already known place to shelter terrorists.If they keep in our Knesset fighting for a people who is not the Israeli people,kick them out!
58. What an absolute idiot!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.01.10)
If Israel wanted to maximize casualties, the flotilla would have been torpedoed. Not hard.
59. LIAR
Brenda ,   Canada   (06.01.10)
THe proof is in the videos! Remove her from her position as MK.
60. #40, not disconncted just a viscious liar.
Brian ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (06.01.10)
The Arabs have learned they can say what ever they want, and people like you will eat it up with a spoon, and go around regurgitating it all over the place without even checking if any of it is true at all, they change history, they lie about current affairs, lie about deaths and brutality, everything imaginable. I have lived in Isreal for about a year and a half, prior to that I lived in the US, I was also a US Marine in Iraq, I promise you the IDF is the most moral military in the world, and at the expense of their own people. Israelis are incredibly liberal to the point where the will feed shelter and protect, those wishing them dead, hell they will even put people wishing to destroy this nation in the government.
