Muslim Arabs slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Black African Christians in Darfur but I guess the 15 deaths of bat and knife-wielding "peace activists" is far worse. hmmm...

i work as head manager of a big PR firm, we will make sure no one buys your book, idiot, u think u do us a favor? lowlife

Then Steimatzky should stop selling his books.

We don't want your books in Israel. There are plenty of authors who are better than you.

Keep his crud out of our country. Please send hundreds of boats next year. I would personally participate, if I could, in sinking them one by one....

We'll just have to read his books in English or use them for doorstops.

In any langauge.

Well he does write fiction for a living...

coming back with 100's of ships? try docking in malmo first http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wg9D4uHjCXI

it is either only one crazy guy is writing all these talkbaks or you guys have gone coocoo

Let him do it. He is just another moron.

You work as a manager with the money that are in your banks, dirty with blood of dictators of all the world and you think that you are something big ? look how your are being humiliated like animals in Ghedaffi's Libya

THe Antisemites are now in hysteria.

Two languages used by the biggest human rights violators with the most blood on their hands...in the word. Are Swedes really this self-righteous or just plain stupid??

I do not understand the logic of depriving all Hebrew readers of access to the important Inspector Wallander. But, of course, that is Herr Mankel's prerogative.

not that we would want to after this, anyway...

Mr Mankell,I threw all your books in the trashcan the minute I heard you were on board that ship. And for your information, some of your books are gloomy,miserable and boring to read.Not exactly literature!

Banning Hebrew because you are protesting Israel? Hebrew is used by others than Israelis and outside the country of Israel. I know it's the cool thing to jump on the ban wagon, but seriously that's not protesting, that's just plain racism.

Mr. Mankell is free to voice his opposition about Israel's right to defend its borders against an entity, Iran sponsored Hamas, which has unabashedly proclaimed its intent to destroy Israel. Mr. Mankell does not suggest that he should stop selling books in Egypt, which also has blockaded Hamas controlled Gaza. Mr. Mankell is pathetically and immorally silent about the 12,000 missiles that the entity he supports has launched into israel with the sole intent to kill or main innocent men, women and children. Perhaps, because those men, women, and children are Jews, their lives don't matter. So while Mr. Mankell supports the killing of people he has never met, an israeli and American boycott of Mr. Mankell's book would not hurt innocent Swedish men, women, and children. Instead, a boycott of this moral hypocrits books would hurt and place blame where it belongs, on Mr. Mankell.

Guess what, Hypocrite, as Americans we are not going to read your book in English either !

This ignorant goy thinks Jews would throw an atomic bomb on boats trying to crash the blocade. The utter stupidity of his comment astounds even a mind with the intellectual acuity of a hard-boiled egg....which this idiot seems to lack.

Never heard of him anyway.

a traitor anyway. Keep your sh*t books in Sweden and watch as the arabushim take over Sweden.

remind me who are you and what you wrote?

...that nobody bothers commenting

that he will not stop the translation of his books into Arabic, but Arabs don't read as much as jews do. Facts

The objective of the current anti-Israel campaign is to enlarge the circle of animus against Israel. Anti-Israel campaigners can count on the Islamists, the traditional antisemites and the extreme left. They want to expand anti-Jewish attitudes to the wider population. Although the absence of a particular crime writer from the Israeli market is insignificant in itself, it is a worrying example of the degree to which Europe as a whole is falling prey to the new antisemitism.
