18 Talkbacks for this article
1. How ironic for a settelment built on stolen Palestinian land
Salma ,   Palestine   (11.03.10)
Stop the Racist War, Don't dream it, there will be no second Nakba for Palestinians (citizens of "Israel" ).
2. Racist idiots
Israeli   (11.03.10)
"We need to prevent unnecessary conflict between Jews and Arabs" - so stop causing conflict by saying living together is negative. An Arab who buys a house in Carmiel understands they will be surrounded by Jews. They are living co-existence. Those against it are primitive racists.
3. Tolerance should be reciprocal
Raphael ,   Netanya   (11.03.10)
Ever heard about the Pekiin or Akko pogroms? Or the Karp lynching in TA?Do you want the same scheme in Carmiel?
4. To #1: Fakestinian
Frank ,   Canada   (11.03.10)
You are the typical Arab squatter: anti-Semite, hatrous, venimous and pathological liar. Go back to your homeland of Arabia.
5. to #1 the Galeli was never pali area
ghostq   (11.03.10)
and the nakbe is just a term for the war arab started, I can even tell you where and when, there is a mark on the area.
6. Arab Culture of Dominance- from Arabia to Israel/NorthAfrica
Yehoshua ,   Galilee Israel   (11.03.10)
and the Levant. Israel the only sovereign Jewish country in world for people who have been oppressed for longer (2000 years) and more quality oppression (you name it its been done to us- who else has been tunred into lampshades and bars of soap?) than anyone in the world. Understandably we arent about to let a largely hostile even traitorous population take over with their 8 kids per family and culture of steady dominance...
7. 1 - possession is 9/10 of the law
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (11.03.10)
besides, it was once possession of rome and they have as much right to it as you do.
8. 3,4,5,6,7
phil   (11.03.10)
Your vitriol only serves to prove the point that you are as small-minded and racist as the anonymous emailer.. And before you go harping on about anti-semites blahblah.. note that this individual also circulated a call for people not to rent to eastern european and ethiopian jews
9. Pali Law: Death Sentence for Selling Land to Jews
Frankie Littlehammer ,   New Herstal, TX, USA   (11.03.10)
Don't the Palestinians have a law that ordered a death sentence for selling land to Jews? Of course that's different, like the Muslim laws that forbid building new churches or synagogues, or the Muslim law that says that the walls of infidels' houses can't be higher than Muslim houses.
10. What would happen to a Jew ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.03.10)
.... who tried to buy a home in Umm al Fahm? Or Tulqarem? Just askin'.
11. To: No. 1
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.03.10)
Stolen? Do you live in a different universe? You were squatters, far away from your home in Arabia. And then you actually declared war on Israel and lost. Did it five more times, too -- and lost again. Germany, following World War II, lost approximately 25% of its land because it lost the war. Millions of German speakers from Poland and Czechoslavakia were forcibly uprooted and resettled in Germany following the war, too. Why should you be treated any differently than any other country? And you have the damned nerve to make demands and issue ultimata! Don't you realize that you lost six wars .... and nearly seventy years of terror? Why should you have any say in what happens to you at all? You are a vanquished people. Deal with it.
12. to #8 I been called worse,
ghostq   (11.03.10)
and I don't see how my tb connect with your statment, go reread it, you hot headed door knob. I didn't make any mark on his policy, but he you really want to devalue apartment go to Nis in Frence, the slamdog neighbourhood can open your eyes.
13. Salma - If a Palestinian sells his house to a Jew
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (11.03.10)
He gets the death sentence. How do you figure that all the land was "stolen" when Jews either owned it or purchased it? I live just down the street from Kfar Etzion, which was legally bought and owned by Jews before 1948. Then along came the war, and the Arabs overran Kfar Etzion and murdered the prisoners of war. Because the Jews legally owned the land, that means from '48 to '67 you "Palestinians" were sitting on stolen land. Even worse, you congratulated the war criminals who "bravely" murdered unarmed prisoners of war. The Palestinians seem to be content with Nakba #1. I haven't met an Israeli Arab yet who wants to move to the new "Palestine" or have his home on the other side of the new border (if there will ever be one).
14. It is alway safer when they live outside Israel with family
Moshe ,   Usa   (11.03.10)
Jews are safer, the Israeli economy is also better. And no hand out to those who don't pay taxes. Oh my G-d. How simple can it get.Moshe
15. #12
phil   (11.03.10)
Please learn how to conduct yourself on talkback without stooping to abusive comments.. If I didn;t understand your talkback as you intended it to be read then perhaps that is a result of your lingustic shortcomings This is an english language site so if you with to be understood then I recommedn you take a course of english (as well as good manners)
16. No Bones About It
Katherine ,   Canada   (11.03.10)
Make no bones about it, Israel is transforming into a Jewish fascist state. And it runs from the leaders all the way down.
17. Unfortunately there's not telling apart
Ze'ev ,   Ramat HaGolan   (11.03.10)
those Arabs who want to live among Jews peacefully, and those who seek to destroy the Jewish character of the country. As long as we refuse to expel those who hate Israel, separation will serve as a temporary solution. It is not racism, it is survival.
18. How much hypocrisy can we stand?
John Mohammad ,   USA   (11.05.10)
Image if someone had said "We already have 1,000 Jews living here; pretty soon they'll want a synagogue"- I daresay you couldn't get a word in edgewise for the clamor that would ensue. Or, more likely, the sound of bulldozers would be the problem, with construction commencing on the synagogue whether it was wanted or not.
