61. To Brian Nr 44
Bar ,   All around the world   (06.01.10)
To Brian: You think she Is lying. I do not think she is. I truly believe that most (note not all but most) of the people on board did not have violent intentions but just wanted to give aid to gaza. There is not one truth, this is obviously not a black and white situation, not all the facts are stated and not all the people involved are heard yet. Most of the time when people criticize Israel you are either antisemetic or a self-hating Jew and I think that's just ridiculious. Zoabi is not an enemy of the state, she just does not have an Israel is the greatest loving nation that does not ever do anything wrong opinion. Furthermore, you can call me silly anytime but it does look really childish on you, we're only having a discussion.
62. What I think happened
Noel   (06.01.10)
The IDF shot people on the deck of the ship, and probably more prior. Then those bozos with the clubs came out of the helicopter, and the IDF cameraman started the video camera rolling. Then the bozos and the soldiers pretend to do a bit of fighting, they stop fighting, and then the camera stops. The IDF had already stopped any contradictory footage, or any other reports, from coming out of the flotilla. Israels scores the first impression in the media, and spreads its propaganda. Simple, and all you fools think it is real because it is a video released by the IDF.
63. #28 Opening Rafah crossing is alright..
Janice Cohen ,   ירושלים   (06.01.10)
with us. Unfortunately Egypt will soon tire of these creatures and close it back up. No hard feelings.
64. Revoke Zoabi's citizenship
Eitan ,   Chicago   (06.01.10)
If she wants to consort with terrorist groups, let her do it with a passport of the country set aside as a Palestinian Arab homeland (Jordan), or with "permanent refugee" status.
65. Withdraw from Peace Process
Ralph Levy ,   USA   (06.01.10)
It may be time for Israel to reconsider the peace process and withdraw from it. If Israel cannot be treated fairly by the world community then there is no point to further negotiations. Past appeasement and weakness by Olmert, Livni, Barak, Peres, and Rabin and others have destroyed our deterrance. Israel must develop a real policy of Mutual Assured Destruction the type of policy the US had during the cold war against any country that would seek to destroy Israel both physically and economically. Normal rules of diplomatic behavior does not seem to work. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com
66. WE LOVE HANIN
Marwan ,   Amman, Jordan   (06.01.10)
her testimony today proves that the zionists are the worst kind of terrorists.
67. The best response to her would be to
jason white ,   afula,israel   (06.01.10)
pass a law that takes away the right of citizens that did not serve in the I.D.F. to serve in the knesset, vote, go to institutes of higher education, have drivers' licenses, weapons permits, form political groups, work in government or have business licenses and receive building permits or receive child allowances. Ban all arab political parties and make ,Kach and Kahane Hai legal. In the meantime take this liar and put her on a leash and take her to prison.
68. Barra ......

70. @Brian, Tel Aviv, Israel
Elaa ,   germany   (06.01.10)
i just cant understand what are u trying to defend! the one truth that u cant deny is that israel just won't stop killing innocent people. and that thing that israel says '' we are only trying to defend our country'' we got sick and bored of it , everybody knows what kind of government there is in Israel. and its really funny how each and every person who shows any kind of Objection would be called ''a propagandist, and a traitor. '' the whole world is condemning what Israel this time has done ..that tells u something
71. hAHA AT THE IGNORANCE OF U ALL HAHAHHAHAH
Naila ,   birmingham, uk   (06.01.10)
i CANNOT BELIVE THE ignorance of you people who blindly follow the government and IDF allowing them to brainwash you into hating people. Its hilarious how even when a member of your own society condems these acts you are so ignorant that you then belive them to be a liar
72. #28 - which just proves Egypt was not under Israel's yoke
William ,   Israel   (06.01.10)
And Mubarak was fully in charge of that border crossing, as we all stated. Now watch how quick it closes after this incident becomes yesterday's news. I give it...1 week at most. The trick is in his language. He will open it to allow "humanitarian aid through", yet most of it, including the crap from the flotilla, are coming through Israel. He's just an opportunist.
73. #30 - though elected, all MKs must adhere to certain decorum
William ,   Israel   (06.01.10)
and supporting enemies of the State clearly crosses that line. Though she's not as bad as A-Sana or Tibi, the intent is clearly there.
74. Zoasbi is a liar, it was set up by erdogan intentionally
bernard ross ,   st anns bay jamaica   (06.01.10)
75. #1 Eyal
Marco ,   Spain   (06.01.10)
Vidoes as usual are tampered with in Judaya-woodstan. She is not lying. You people are.
76. Why is Treason not against the law in Israel?
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.01.10)
Why are Israeli taxpayers forced to finance this wicked traitor's big fat salary and many perks?
77. revoke her immunity!
OZ   (06.01.10)
and her citizienship at once! the hutzpa she ad other"israeli- arabs" is way beyond anything any normal country should tolerate... when you provoke a dog , you'll get bitten. it's a simple rule.
78. To nr 28 - Chris
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (06.01.10)
I've noticed you have a natural talent and inclination for twisting facts and turning black into white and white into black. Israel has accepted hundreds of thousands of tons, millions of tons, of food, medicine, clothes, water and so on 6 days a week for months ever since 2009. Typically, a large and very long convoy of trucks enter Gaza on a daily basis from Israel. The life expectancy in Gaza is 73, which is almost as high as in the western world. It is considerably higher than China, Russia, and many African and Arab countries. About 70% of the Gazans have TV:s and radios and about 20% of them have personal computers. If they are really starving than how is it that their population is growing? Egypt on the contrary did not let trucks with food, medicine and water into their Arab brothers and sisters in Gaza, yet no protests neither from you Chris, the EU, the Arab world, Russia or the anti-Semitic terrorists on those ships. Here is your logic: you say Israel is blocking Gaza but as Egypt is opening the Rafah crossing it means Israel has lost. Excuse me? Israel has opened its crossing into Gaza for months! And you are praising Egypt for opening it now! And you show a complete disregard for the fact that Israeli cities of Ashdod and Asqelon daily supply the Gazans, God knows why, with electricity. Are you asleep, are you on drugs or just plain stupid? Another question: who are you, what do you want, what country do you come from, why is your opinion so "important", who and what do you represent, who made you the judge of us or anyone for that matter in this world and who made you the judge of this world? Where does your legitimacy and authority come from? I guess you don't particularly care that Jews/Israelis are the natives and historical population and original/historical owners of the land of Israel which includes Gaza, Judea and Samaria? And I suppose you don't particularly care that Arabs are newcomers, illegal immigrants, occupiers and imperialists trying to Arabize Israel and the entire Middle East from Morocco in the west to Iraq in the east? And I suppose you don't care about the fact that 10 million Moslems in total have been killed by other Moslems since 1945? And I suppose you don't care that most of the Arabs of Gaza, Judea and Samaria are killed by their Arab brothers and sisters? And I suppose you don't care that the Arab population of Gaza, Judea and Samaria has multiplied by 1000% meaning 10 times since 1948? Just minor details huh?
79. This Woman Is Crazy
LynneElizabeth ,   Austin, Texas   (06.01.10)
If Israel wanted fatalities they would not have descended to the boat singly on ropes in the most vulnerable position possible! This woman is immoral and crazy! Had they wanted fatalities, easily accomplished---but they did NOT do that.
80. Correction - hamas wanted fatalites like it always does ...
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (06.01.10)
at Israel's expense. Israel what are playing at having 'people' like these in YOUR govt? Get rid of all arab MK's. They mean you harm just like hamas and al qaida.
81. #71 ok dummy keep laughing
Brian ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (06.01.10)
She does not identify herself as a member of our society, she identifies herself as Palestinian, have you ever even heard of her before today? Is there anyone against us with half a brain? No? Well that's comforting.
82. To: No. 71
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.01.10)
There are some thirty-odd organizations each purporting to be the sole true representative of the Palestinian people. What each of these organizations have in common is their core charters, each of which call for the destruction of the State of Israel and the extermination and/or expulsion of the Jewish people. If that is not exemplary of hating people, I'm not sure what is.
83. #54 you lie 2 soldiers were seriously injured
Ze'ev ,   Lod   (06.01.10)
Check your facts before writing lies
84. If the goal was to kill...
Shu ,   Ariel, Israel   (06.01.10)
as many activist as possible, how could so many soldiers get on the boat and open fire on the poor innocent people and only kill between 9-20 of them, depending on who you ask, out of 600?

The whole world saw the video of the Muslims lynching the Jewish soldiers on board her vessel.
88. RE: Why is she still an MK?????
Tim ,   USA   (06.01.10)
You said: "Israel needs a law to deal with those associating themselves with people who call for the destruction of the state of Israel!!! " What, something like Germany's old Enabling Act?
