31. as far as warporn goes
sweeter than honey ,   far away   (08.17.10)
this is so mild as to be laughable. (which is again to be expected from an empowered stupid vain person). you should see what i've got. it'd probably make you vomit. real hard core. but israel is judged on different standards, which is one of israel's enemies' weaknesses. the hypocrasy is a fact. now dry your eyes, and learn to exploit the weakness.
32. Photos

Ashamed, - yes; sorry,- no.
34. #30; James, Oh I see your an expert
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (08.17.10)
So living in Canada, makes you an expert on Israeli society? Interesting.You state: "For years, Israeli society has dehumanized the Palestinians and treated them as sub-humans" First, I disagree with your premise, in fact, it's well known that Arabs, that live in Israel, have more rights and freedoms, than any Arab/Muslim living in other countries i.e. Syria, Lebanon, Iran etc.. Then, of course, you fail to mention, what I like to call context (you can look up the meaning of the word later) who is it that is dedicated to destroying Israel. Do you think, that suicide bombers, snipers, car bombers etc., basically the Palestinians, would treated differently, if they haven't been trying kill Israeli civilians for the last 60 years?
35. to no. 3. This is the norm in Israel!!!
Avi ,   Tel Aviv   (08.17.10)
so what if your fellow IDFs remove their photos, does this means that racist and criminal acts like those. Can't you face it, this is the VERY real face of Israel.
36. Remember the bus and cafe bombings? Don't feel sorry for
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (08.17.10)
terrorists who are handcuffed and blindfolded. They are not being killed as they killed.
37. Arabs prefer to see beheaded, hanged photos ...
aviG   (08.17.10)
small stuff for them, they want more reality show... but we have no more than that for them, sorry folks ! stay home, the theater is better for you.
38. Misplaced passion, Adom: Do you really
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (08.17.10)
think it's "peaceful" in Israel and difficult to live as a Jew in the UK? I think you've got things inside-out. You do not have to be searched (wanded) each time you step into a large grocery story, into a mall or into a railroad or bus station. You do not have to be wary of mortars and rockets launched from Gaza if you reside in the south or those launched by Hizbollah if you reside in the north. You do not have to be wary of bulldozers running amuck if you reside in Jerusalem nor of jagged rocks thrown at your automobile window if travelling to your village on highways east of the Green Line. No, life is comparatively sane in the UK where you reside, Adom. So, you're embarrassed to be a Jew because of the faults your neighbours find in Israel? This is the diaspora Jew's dilemma. Many are ashamed; some drop their Jewish identity and others attempt to go unrecognized so that they do not have to bear the brunt and stigma of being Jewish. As for yourself, I would suggest that you visit Israel for an extended period of time, perhaps make Aliyah and then judge the country while developing your own objective and experienced reaction to being a non-Israeli Jew. At that point, your posts would merit credibility. As it is now, all I pick up is your discomfort and shame. Hope this helps.
39. Ms. Meyer and others

It is curious how you seem to know that all "Arabs" are deserving of punishment. If a certain newspaper were to publish comments of a similar nature but changed the word Jewish for Arab, the cry of anti-semitism would be incessant. Maybe in L.A. it's fetish chic for the reform girls to get blindfolded, but for most people it is a degradation. I would accuse the lot of you of being racist pigs but I doubt the censor would permit that. Apparently it is permissable, however; to collectively judge people because they are Palestinian or Arab. I get it. They can't possibly be suffering. You have proprietary rights on that.

In response to "Israelis cannot win against those who wish not to see" : Your choice to condemn all Palestinians behooves the retort, "There is no sense throwing pearls before swine" The attitudes you expressed are similar to those of your southern countrymen in referring to arrested blacks until recently.
41. Sarah B. Which side of...
Persian CAT ,   US   (08.17.10)
your mouth are you using for your post, the American, the Israeli or both? Your attempt to justify this kind of shenanigans by the Zionist army and for trying to shame America by bringing up Abu Ghraib, clearly shows the state of your filthy treacherous mind. Two wrongs don't make right, in case you missed that one too. Get a clue and some tissues, will you?
42. if she was not super hot
roli ,   miami beach, USA   (08.17.10)
there would not be as many pictures of her while she was doing her job. I guess that no matter what the backdrop is, an attractive person will spark flashbulbs. The airforce will have to do better or border guard will take the miss Tzahal title next year also.

(08.17.10)
Not every Palestinian is the "enemy" and posting these humiliating pictures shows the mindset of Israelis. Of course they say they are going to punish her, but what is most likely to happen, she'll get a promotion to a higher rank, even though she's been discharged already. THAT is what is wrong with these pictures
44. "scandal-pictures"!
Asher Bar-Oni ,   FRANCE   (08.18.10)
I' have a same pictures! I' make a same pictures! And? this is just a Joke!!
45. no 6
hebrew prophet ,   israel   (08.18.10)
As usual Palestinian Matty Groves knows better than anyone else that these are,nt Palestinian actors looking for a propaganda coup,whatever ,wherever?
46. no 29
hebrew prophet ,   israel   (08.18.10)
Let the Palestinian hypocrite Mattty Groves plead, just as profusely as he does for his Palestinian ilk ,Gilad Shalit,s case of non-compliance by the Islamofascist Hamas who won,t allow any visits whatsoever from Israeli officials,family members ,the International Red Cross contrary to the Geneva Convention on prisoners rights whilst in detention ?
47. no 41
hebrew prophet ,   israel   (08.18.10)
Actually Persian CAT ,what a ridiculous name,in the Shiite culture two wrongs definitely make one right otherwise why would Shiites target Iraqi army recr uits standing in a recruitment line in Baghdad,any idea nutcase,because most of these recruits are Sunni,not so?
48. no 43
hebrew prophet ,   israel   (08.18.10)
One cannot be promoted to a higher rank in an organisation one doesn,t belong to anymore ,what are you talking about dumb Palestinian ?
49. #42
jj   (08.18.10)
Man, seriously... what are you talking about? the reason most of the pictures of her are blurred out is not to protect her identity, it's to protect our eyes. i wish they had left it on.
50. One sided again !
Philippe ,   Switzerland   (08.20.10)
Of course, this kind of pictures are not the finest way to polish Israel's image. But as Naro said, who knows if this is really the truth? and waht about the thausend of images which can be found on the Internet about what Palestinians do to other Palestiniens, or Arabs to other Arabs? As usual, nobody says a single owrd about them or show them on the Web !! Once again, all oportunities are just fine enough to blame Israel and glorifie all the terorists arround this planet. Just do not forget one thing: all muslims are not terrorist. But all terrorists are muslims !!!
51. Nonsense
Pepito Grillo ,   Spain   (08.26.10)
All terrorists are muslims? That's probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard. What about E.T.A? what about I.R.A? The word terrorist has been missused by righ-wing media and politicians, and people like you is easy to brainwash.
