1. WAKE UP - ARABS DO NOT RENT TO JEWS
Elianana ,   Jerusalem   (12.09.10)
More than 30 years Arab leaders have stopped the rental of apartments to Jews. Where was your protest all these years? Are you so one sided that you only judge Jews?
2. So what does that say about Arabs that do not rent to Jews?
Elianana ,   Jerusalem   (12.09.10)
3. Straightforfard halacha
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (12.09.10)
B"H This campaign, not so much against some (few) courageous rabbis, but against halacha, Jewish Law, must stop! The prohibition to buy from or to sell or to lend or lease anything to Arabs is a straightforward halachic matter and the State should keep out of it. If it does not, it’ll lose, as G-d and our Sages are a higher source of law than the men in the knesset. Those who go by universal human values misrepresent Jewish values and should go and live with the nations in the galut.
4. Survivors
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (12.09.10)
B"H Survivors would do better not to let themselves be used for political campaigns not so much against a few courageous rabbis, but against Judaism and G-d.
5. hmm
pini   (12.09.10)
You guys think the arabs have arab haters the way us jews have jewhaters? Hey u think he'd mind if a nazi moved in next door?
6. Completely and Absurdly 110% DIFFERENT
Jae ,   Lynn US   (12.09.10)
The Nazis didnt have a 20% Muslim minority, activley assisting or supporting foreign countries' vows of gencoide of the German people, and the Nazis didnt have to deal with thousands of Mulism suicide bombings, millies launched, etc. The nazis didnt have to deal with Germans not being allowed to live in Muslim towns. The Rabbis are aware that Saudi Arabia and other wealthy arab states have an active goal of buying up as much Jewish land as possible for their nationalistic purposes and Islamic purposes. This is not about Jew and non Jew, this is about preventing the steady erosion and decay of the Jewish states by selling lands to those who wish us only harm As for those non Jews who are on our side there needs to be a difference, and the Rabbis should not negllect to state this.
7. Pure compassion comepaed to DEATH PENALTY Arabs impose for
Jae ,   Lynn US   (12.09.10)
sale to Jews. An arab who sells land ot Jews is gen the DEATHHHHHHH penalty. Dont believe me look it up! For REAL! The rabbis dont want arab oil monye buying up Israel, nor those who wish the jewish state harm. Good for them in these regards.
8. I thought nazi was a forbidden word
observer   (12.09.10)
no matter to whom, no matter what they do. Oh, it's OK this time, they're only haredim.
9. Try moving to a Druze village
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (12.09.10)
I have many good friends amoung the Druze in the Golan yet the would never let me move into their village or date one of their daughters. Are they racist too???
10. Israel huge religious problem
Jonatan ,   Ramat Gan   (12.09.10)
As a non Jew living and loving Israel, it makes me very sad to see where we are heading to. Some people never learn the lesson. If we don't stop these rabbis Israel will be a place only for fanatic. Israel should be a country supporting the Jewish religion, but not a place where crabs are being treated like garbage.
11. no 9 Judah
JUDAH THE LION   (12.09.10)
Dear JUdah, According to yobo leftist,the Arabs are not racist for not allow A Jew to date one of their daughters or to move into their village,but a Jewish who do the same thing will be called racist
12. German jews were loyal, law abiding citizens.
tanya ,   tel aviv israel   (12.09.10)
13. if this is true
jj   (12.09.10)
does it make you satisfied to be like them? people like you are exactly why this region will never be at peace. and save your "its the arabs' fault". maybe they dont help it/exacerbate it but it takes two to tango, and israel is enjoying the dance.
14. As I don't stop to say
Yossef   (12.09.10)
The racism anti-Arab I see on a regular basis on this talkback makes me sick!! There is no excuse to racism, even not, and certainly not, the terrorism. Think different! These rabbis must be separated from the jewish people, they do not represent Judaism. Read Rambam, read Einstein, read the great jewish philosophers and not these stubborn bigots. They are a shame for the whole people of Israel. Congratulations to Noah Flug, and you know what you are talking about כל הכבוד
15. It pains me to say it but...
Talula ,   Israel   (12.09.10)
There is a very fine, almost invisible line, between the Haredi rabbis and the Nazis and any extremist.
16. Why is there always comparisons...
Adam ,   Carmiel, Israel   (12.09.10)
In issues of rascism or segregation you often hear the whiney defense of "The Arabs do it, so why can't we?" It's "Arab this" and "Arab that", whine, whine, whine... Don't compare yourselves to others. Compare yourselves to what's right, and what's ideal. Strive to lead by good examples, instead of hiding behind bad ones. We should all condemn this blatant, ugly, and un-godly rascism. Period.
17. Apples & Oranges.
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (12.09.10)
This is just more of the pernicious moral equivalency mentality, an inappropriate comparison, totally different circumstances. Comparisons like this only show the moral bankruptcy so common today. Were Jews an hostile minority in Germany or anywhere else in Europe? Were Jews trying to destroy Europe? Were Jews trying to put an end to any European country? Did Jews commit acts of terrorism? This man is a fool, evidently he learned nothing from his experience.
18. #11 Judah the Lion (?)
Yossef   (12.09.10)
and because Nazis decided to eliminate all the Jews we must, on our side, eliminate all the Germans ? This is your logic ? It's insane. Judah, go and read the Torah, read Hillel, take a break. To the pagan who came to Hillel, asking him to explain the Torah, Hillel answered : "What you don't want the other does to you, don't do it to him, this is the law, everything else is commentaries,go and study".
19. ARABS have no houses to live in
Survivor ,   Jerusalem   (12.09.10)
The arabs have no houses to live in, how can they rent to others, while most settelment are empty houses, just to occupye the land, the arabs are facing real genocide.
20. Wake up...
josh ,   T.A.   (12.09.10)
so, if the arabs dont rent to jews??? So what? Do we need to get all the time eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. That is soooo childish. In the end we are all toothless and blind. So that s the goal? We need to stop that foolish, "look what they do"-reflexes! So, be human and stop all that things. Arabs, you too!
21. What Does This Mean?!
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.09.10)
the Jews are acting like Nazis ! Or have I misunderstood, Y net?!! Don't Think So : (
22. History shows that our beloved survivors are mistaken...
Roy Doliner ,   Rome, Italy   (12.09.10)
I am so proud that our Jewish survivors of the worst expression of racism in human history have not become racists themselves. HOWEVER - the two situations could not be more opposite. In Germany, the Jews were loyal citizens who contributed greatly to the nation, as soldiers, artists, writers, doctors, etc. They were not trying to destroy or take over the host country. In Israel, on the other hand, we have the Islamic imperialists whose openly declared, clearly written goal is the destruction of the Jewish state of Israel (see the official charters of both Fatah - the so-called "moderate" rulers of the PA - and Hamas). The Arab Islamists do not contribute to Israel, do not serve in the military, do not pay taxes and do not wish to be loyal citizens of the host country. I repeat, their only goal is to destroy the state from without and definitely from within, by using Saudi oil money to buy Jewish homes and land. Another historical fact is that nobody in the 1930's believed Hitler's clearly outlined goals in Mein Kampf - the liberals said he was just exaggerating for political purposes. Guess what the so-called liberals and apologists for Islamic imperialism are saying today about the jihadists rants and the official charters of the PA and Hamas?
23. Better Title; Arabs wont rent to Jews, Arabs wont let Jews
Yoqhanan ,   Hod Hasharon Israel   (12.09.10)
live in Arab towns. Arabs will MURDER-Legally- Arabs who sell property or land to Jews. Its public knowledge and in the legal courts of the PA and among most Israeli Arabs of the north. Or try this on for size. Saudi Arabia doesnt let Jews live in their country, same for most Arab countries. Now whose the racist x10000? This has been going on years before those brave rabbis said this.
24. shame on the Rabbis
Naomi ,   Jerusalem Israel   (12.09.10)
A quote from Israel's Declaration of Independence: ".. will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture" Noah Flug - good for you for speaking up. Kol Hakavod it is clear now - the nail in the coffin for any respect that remained for Israel's rabbinic leadership
25. playing the Nazi card
Marcel ,   FLORIDA   (12.09.10)
Why is it that the liberal Jew always ignores the new Nazis of the 21 st century and their end goal for Jews and Israel and their long history of evil deeds? Why do they ALWAYS come to the rescue of the new Nazi's and always demonize their fellow Jewish 'settlers' ? Could it have to do with (evil) 'Birds of a feather flock together' ? It's OK for Jews to not rent to those intent on the destruction of Israel and their jihad clans.
26. Yossef
JUDAH THE LION   (12.09.10)
What this subject to do with the Nazis? Why we Jews not allowed to do the same thing as the Arabs doing? Simple:Arabs are against Jews to live with them,or dating their daughters,and we are just doing the same. Yossef you are talking nonsense.
27. People, remember it is only Rabbis who say this
Lawrence ,   Or Yehuda   (12.09.10)
The Rabbis are the most corrupt element of society and few people listen to them anymore
28. Jews didn't kill Nazis. End of Story!
Robert ,   New Jersey, USA   (12.09.10)
29. JEWS DID NOT TRY TO TAKE OVER GERMANY!!!!!!!!!!!
ARABS WANT TO ,   DESTROY ISRAEL!!!!!!   (12.09.10)
30. Yossef
JUDAH THE LION   (12.09.10)
What this subject to do with the Nazis? Why we Jews not allowed to do the same thing as the Arabs doing? Simple:Arabs are against Jews to live with them,or dating their daughters,and we are just doing the same. Yossef you are talking nonsense.
