"America is a CHRISTIAN state." No, it is not. Read the US Constitution.
32. How about this fugly woman keeping out
jason white ,   afula,israel   (08.25.10)
of our business? We do not belong to the eurabian union. Or do they prefer some arabs humps farming our land and there will be no fence? Perhaps she wants e.u.'s proxie Jew killers to kill more of us?
33. He's defending Israel's law, the Court must free him.

It's illegal whenever the demonstration is violate. The EU is not only unfair ALL the time, it is wrong as well. They have no point because the Arabs have no claim to the land. It's ours and that is exactly what international law states. The Arabs have lied so often that their lies about the land are believed even though they have no legal claim to the land.
35. where was this great human rights activist
walt kovacs ,   los angeles, califor   (08.25.10)
when his people were blowing up buses filled with children? let him rot in prison
36. Ms Ashton - the point is these are not peaceful protests.
rebecca ,   Modiin   (08.25.10)
Arabs demonstrate peacefully (well sort of) all the time in Israel. What's happening in Bilin is not peaceful.
37. #33- No, it's proper protocol
William ,   Israel   (08.26.10)
As the West Bank is currently disputed (not "occupied), and the area where the protests occur each week is a closed military zone, Israeli Court jurisdiction does not extend there, and it falls to the military court which acts as the administration until peace talks bring a final resolution.

Just how deep is that ideology which blinds a man? You rant about Palestinian violence, yet what was this man's violence? The photo seems to indicate he is the injured party. You prefer rockets and suicide bombers to protesters? It is a hate filled people who commit such egregious acts and it is a hate filled man who condones them. How would you react if somewhere in the western world a government unilaterally decided that a Jewish neighbourhood was a protected military zone ? If the Jews inside that zone were to protest such an injustice? Right, so the conclusion is ...you are all for laws as long as they are warped to your ideology.
39. # 37 How convinient ;) ,...
split ,   USA   (08.26.10)
"Israeli Court jurisdiction does not extend there"
