1. I'd really like to comment on this ....
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (10.01.10)
But everything I have to say is very politically incorrect. After all, we wouldn't want to offend anyone by telling the truth.
2. Persecute?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.01.10)
Palestinians have persecuted Jews enough already. If you intend to prosecute Jews for defending themselves against rampaging Palestinian rioters .... well, good luck with that one. The Palestinians are one sickening bunch of whiners. Evidently, they think that it is perfectly acceptable for them to murder and maim, but when victims of Palestinian terror defend themselves, they scream "persecution!"
3. Unfortunately for Israeli Jews...
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (10.01.10)
The Arabs are speaking the truth. The level of racism has increased as Israelis find the little Ghetto they have made for themselves in the Middle East is being circumscribed. Look at the recent polling of Israeli Jewish students about their vies of Israeli Arabs and you will find that a large percentage not only don't want to study with Israeli Arabs but wish to deny their fellow citizens civil rights. So much for the 'light unto nations', the candle, if it ever existed, has been extinguished.
4. Tibi: Level of racism has increased - (yeah, thanks to you)
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.01.10)
tibi single-handedly increases the level of racism with his every speech on the subject. the man has no shame.
5. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.01.10)
You, on the other hand, would just embrace everyone that has subjected you to six wars and nearly seventy years of unrelenting terror on a global scale, is that right? Can you try walking in the Jewish people's shoes, just once? Don't forget to include the part about 2,000 years of persecution -- you know -- the Romans, the Christians, the Inquisition, the Holocaust, the PLO .... Are you always so stupid? What part of "we do not want them polluting our country" do you NOT understand?
6. Torah HaMelech
observer   (10.01.10)
"Jews have the right to kill non-Jews in just about any circumstance." "If we kill a gentile who has sinned or has violated one of the seven commandments … there is nothing wrong with the murder" . The permission to kill is given on the basis of the Sheva mitzvot B'nei Noach (the seven Noachian Laws), which, according to the Talmud, should be followed by all mankind. The sefer adds that killing a non-Jew who has violated the Seven Mitzvos given to non-Jews because we care about torah and mitzvos, then this is acceptable. It stresses the importance of Eretz Yisrael, the halachic requirements of the land, and living within a torah framework". Similarly, the book justifies the killing of "non-Jews who demand the land for themselves". The Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel : "We must expel Arabs and take their places"
7. Level of racism is up when the Jewish people is denied its
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (10.01.10)
right of national self-determination and independence in its historic homeland, the cradle of the Jewish people and its civilization!! It is high time the Muslim-Arab world used some introspection and examined the level of racism and the way this racism manifests itself not only towards the Jewish people and its nation state of Israel but also towards other peoples!!! And when the Muslim-Arabs, local and regional, start doing some soul searching - a concept which doesn't exist in Arabic - they would realize how much evil they have brought to the world...!!
8. Level of racism HAS increased
(10.01.10)
in the israeli arab sector.
9. 3 mikesailor speaks a lot about what he doesn't know
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.01.10)
as someone who, unlike you, spends a lot of time among both jews and arabs i can say that racism is definitely higher among muslim arabs, not just for jews but about everyone else that's not a muslim. of course we'd never hear an unqualified negative word (like your screeds against jews) from the likes of you about that, would we?
10. level of racism?
moron ,   galut   (10.01.10)
you mean level of antagonism-this can be culture religion race or the land is too small or even resentment of one man's head being higher than another-jews who disliked dhimmi status were not racists--of course it could just be more arabs encouraged left
11. It is time Arabs checked their anti-Jewish racism!
Geulah ,   Bar Giora, Israel   (10.01.10)
12. I am ill
Ernst ,   Amsterdam, NL   (10.01.10)
it's a widespread disease in my country: tiredness of Arabs
13. 5 - You have irrational and twisted thinking.
Barry   (10.01.10)
The history of the Jews are not the Palestinans fault and they should not be paying for it. If you a grivences with the Romans, Germans and Turks go and take it out on them the Pals. have nothing to do with it. Unlike you they were born in Palestine and are entitled to live free in their own land.
14. Ignorant Pal nomads
Ken Copla ,   Toronto Canada   (10.01.10)
Just another show of display of Pal violent nature in a daily show of violent protest to show the World that there is no such thing as PEACE in the nomad Pal_Arab World. They are so bent on destroying any chance of peace, but then it seems as though the more they act like animals the more funding that they get; hmmmm. Millions of children starving in Africa, please FEED THEM instead of feeding these INGRATES
15. Sixty years ago Jews wanted to live in peace with arabs. Now
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (10.01.10)
that the arabs have PROVED they will not live in peace, THEY need to find a new homeland that has no Jews. I suggest Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan or any of twenty other ARAB countries where a tiny few Jews may or may not live but are not welcome in any case.
16. Racism against israeli arabs
Potash Katiftof ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (10.01.10)
They cheered everytime a bus blew up, did they expect that israeli's would love them for that?
17. You Get Me Sick, Stop Pulling My Chain
Dav Lev ,   Burbank.CAUSA   (10.01.10)
Racism? Its too bad that most Israels dont have the mentality of our Tea Parties. But lets go deeper, what about Louis Farrakhan/David Duke types? You Arabs dont know what racism is. I met GermanAmerican Bundists years ago..they were racist. You Arabs brought this on yourselves by those riots..now you blame the police for protecting and serving? Like Deir Yassin, you never forget hum? You started every war with the jEWISH STATE. and look for sympathy. If I were P.M, of Israel, that crowd would have been dispersed wtihin 10 minuts..using water canyon, then rubber bullets..then stun guns, then tethal weapons. You are Israeli Arab s, and must obey the laws applied equally. Dont like it,move out and fast. Get it. You get me sick and I know millions who feel equally.
18. The level of racism in Israel has increased
Gene ,   USA   (10.01.10)
among Israeli Arabs. They always considered themselves to be superior over Jewish citizens of Israel (like Mr. Lieberman) by having exclusive rights on that land. Their recent remarks show that Arab chauvinism has increased dramatically.
19. So they wave enemy flags, throw stones, attack people
William ,   Israel   (10.01.10)
Isn't this the same situation Arabs started in riots that caused it to escalate in 2000 in the first place? Never underestimate the value of Arab tenacity - the ability to do the exact same thing every time and expect (hell - DEMAND) different results.
20. Not a single flag of the state in which they are citizens,
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (10.01.10)
equal before the law, Israel. How can they expect to receive respect if they don't respect the people with whom they share a state and the state in which they are citizens...??!!
21. "The level of racism in Israel has increased past 10 years"
William ,   Israel   (10.01.10)
MK Tibi is correct. The increase in racism in Israel comes directly from the Arab MKs and Arab population. Since the 2nd failed intifada, Arabs have become more anti-State, more anti-Jewish, more anti-democratic, and more in support of our murderous enemies. It's clear that while the benefits to Arab Israelis have not changed, their attitude towards fellow citizens and increase in feelings of entitlement has. Though they complain of "racism" despite having equal rights with every other citizen, any amateur socialist would see that Arabs who wave enemy flags, call for more violent attacks against your families, and basically wish for a take over of the the majority y the minority, would bring about some suspicion of them as a group.
22. #12 Ernst: It's Not A Disease But A Logical Reaction
Frankie Littlehammer ,   New Herstal, TX, USA   (10.01.10)
The people in the West don't like Muslims because Muslims expect us to be tolerant towards them, but they themselves are not tolerant towards us. 15 million Muslim immigrants live in Europe, and millions in the US, but they cannot accept the Jewish people ruling their own homeland. 900.000 Jews left the Arab world but it doesn't matter. Muslims cannot give up one inch of land they conquered.
23. Meir Kahane.
Ardella B. ,   Belem,PA.,Brasil   (10.01.10)
Meir Kahane. That's all we need to know. Meir Kahane.
24. Remeber the riot by starting another riot
Rehavam ,   Israel   (10.01.10)
Muslim logic... nuf sad.
25. The British Have Left India, The French Left Algeria
Frankie Littlehammer ,   New Herstal, TX, USA   (10.01.10)
The British have left India, the French have left Algeria, European colonialism is gone, even the white people no longer rule South Africa ('Apartheid' was very much like Muslim rule) but Muslims cannot give up the 1% or 2% of the land they conquered where there is still an original population left to claim it.

Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (10.01.10)
Harking back to my previous question which you may have overlooked: “It has been my experience that Ynuts can only belittle sources that don’t fit their bias yet they can never cite what they would consider ‘reliable sources’ - William what would you consider reliable and trustworthy sources?” So tell me William what would you consider reliable and trustworthy sources?
27. To: No. 13
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.01.10)
Talk about twisted .... Of course the history of the Jews is not the fault of the "Palestinians." Until the Jews arrived en masse to their homeland. Then it became very much the fault of the "Palestinians," whom, by the way, come from the Hejaz in Western Arabia. Israel is NOT their land. They had their chance to opt for a two-state solution in 1947. But no, they rejected it. Went to war against the Jewish state instead ..... AND LOST. Gosh, golly, gee. Despite having LOST the war, they have had two more opportunities since to accept a two-state solution. What have they done? Rejected both. Six wars. Nearly seventy years of terror on an unparalleled scale. The "Palestinians" are fresh out of chances, boychik. And how do you know where I was born, idiot child?
28. To: William
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.01.10)
Just ignore crack (and I do mean "crack") pot "Matty Groves" (a folk song by the Fairport Convention). She is a deluded, dyed-in-the-wool Jew hater; certainly not worthy of your attention. She has never been to Israel and has, therefore, absolutely no business disserting upon ANYTHING involving Israel. Ignore her. If we're lucky enough, she'll just go away and ply her trade on Al Jazeera. Please do not waste your valuable time on this ignorant and deluded anti-Semite.
29. to # 20: Israeli flag should be present as well
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (10.01.10)
Eventhough the Jewish policy since 1948 was to exclude arabs from the collective Israeli society, still Israeli-arabs see their furute in Israel and the Israeli flag should have been raised as weel even though the demonstation commemorates the unjust killing or Israeli -arabs by government forces
30. Arab iots of 2000
Simcha ,   So.Cal.Usa   (10.01.10)
Let's face it,even if there was no matter of borders there would still be strife between the two peoples. Islam insists they convert others or subjugate them. They cannot live peacefuly. with people who refuse,their tennants. Only death is left there is no comprimise. So of course they want the Jew gone, and no amount of "Peace Talks" is going to change things.
