1. The same dream!!!
~~Lengualima~~ ,   I   (01.30.11)
Fight for freedom?. Mullah said the same thing in Iran and ended on the opposite side of the road. less freedom, less prosperity, more religious radicalism, more oppression. Some members of the Israeli left, are capable of binding with the devil so to see his dream fulfilled. The same dream of Ahmadinejad, wipe Israel off the map.
2. 5th column? TRY outright traitors
Justice Please ,   5th column Haifa   (01.30.11)
Former Knesset Member Issam Makhoul took part in the protest, which he said was meant to "show solidarity with the uprising of Arab nations in general, and with the Egyptians in particular." "Now, a new Middle East had truly been born.... "We are not indifferent to this struggle and we aren't neutral. We urge the Egyptian people to resist the weak regime, which was associated with American imperialism and its regional (Israel) interests." Former MK Makhoul added that while he does not expect a Cairo revolution to affect the peace treaty with Israel, "popular uprisings that weaken America's hold on the region will clearly affect Israel (weakening it) too." He estimated that the Egyptian uprising has already succeeded, and that Mubarak is a "dead horse" even if he remains in power for a few more months. 'Mubarak and Sadat – American dogs' In Tel Aviv, some 20 people, both Jewish and Arab, protested outside the Egyptian embassy in Tel Aviv. Some of them held up signs slamming the Egyptian government, whole others waved small flags to show their solidarity with the protests. Some of the demonstrators arrived directly from the rally against "Jewish settlement" in Jaffa held earlier Saturday.

(01.30.11)
Those are islamic extremists living in Israel. They want the dark era and rule of sharia.
4. egyptians are not arabs
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (01.30.11)
that is unless the ancient pharaohs and the ancient egyptian people were arab (which they weren't).
5. Rape and Looting. This is what they call democracy!
Cynic ,   USA   (01.30.11)
6. why is merkava not in suetz?
Miron ,   USA   (01.30.11)
coward netaneyahoo should be dismissed. Merkava in suetz today or Hezbollah in Ierushalaim tomorrow.
7. here we come
wind of change   (01.30.11)
we are coming sooner or later , injustice can't stay for long
8. They cheer for the revolution, because it's bad for Israel.
Tahl ,   Ashdod   (01.30.11)
Chaos in Egypt equals great uncertainty and concern for Israel, and would require the IDF to stretch its resources to the max, to stay on alert on this new front. We would no longer have the peace of mind that the peace with Egypt has been giving us, even as cold as it is. Israeli-Arabs would cheer for anything which undermines Israel's interests. The people in this rally are simply traitors.
9. not only arab
ivan ,   haifa   (01.30.11)
evolutionist jews too.
10. To #4 Modern Egyptians are Arabs
Ivan B ,   San Jose, CA USA   (01.30.11)
Arabs long ago displaced the Egyptians of history.
11. Suicide bombers support Theives
Ethiojegna ,   Addis Ababa Ethiopia   (01.30.11)
Wow how interesting, As if i didn't see this comming. Ethiopia pledges full support of Israel preemptive attacks against Egyptian targets. We also suggest ANNEXATION of the SINAI PENINSULA so it will not be a launching pad for terrorists.
12. #7 The problem is that you dont know what justice is otherwi
Yaawqove ,   Israel   (01.30.11)
otherwise you wouldnt threaten the jewish people in their homeland for 4000 years, and millenium before even Mohammed wrote in the Koran that the Jews will return to their homeland from the exile. read you koran and chirp down. you have 22 countries. the problem is not others its really your lack of accountability and tolerance, among other things.
13. Israeli Arabs
DBC   (01.30.11)
When did Israel care about what there Arab citizens think? As the Domino's topple, eventually Israel will be in the mix.
14. Israeli Arabs want Egypt to attack Israel so that they can
occupy the country   (01.30.11)
Arabs living in Israel want other Arab countries to attack Israel so that they can kill all Jews and occupy Israel and turn it into another Arab and Isalmic country where only Arabs and Moslems will have the right to live. sooner or later that should be sent to Egypt to joing other Arabs where they will be happier.
15. Talk is cheap
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.30.11)
Let the Israeli Arabs that are expressing solidarity with their Egyptian brothers, show their sincerity in person by heading South, crossing over into Egypt, join the dissident population, never to return That would show that they mean what they say
16. #7 WIND - Yes you are, all Wind
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.30.11)
The Arab world will always be the same, one despot replacing anothers So it was, so it is, and so it will be You just might care to learn about the changes, for the worse, that have taken place www.the religionofpeace.com is a good place to start with
17. To #7 you may be going rather than coming
David M.   (01.30.11)
Wind of change will send you to Jordan, your independent Palestine where you belong. We don't plan to play your games on your terms.
18. re: Arabs in israel supporting protest
joel ,   usa   (01.30.11)
THIS A "SHOW OF COWARDICE" BY THESE SYMPATHIZERS, OTHERWISE THEY SHOULD "JOINED" THEIR COUNTERPARTS IMMEDIATELY IN CAIRO, EGYPT AND DO WHAT THEY'RE DOING, SINCE SYMPATHIZERS SHOULD FEEL THE WAY THOSE PROTESTORS DO, OR ONLY DOING IT AS HYPOCRITES!
19. Lefists and Arabs support only terror
Golan ,   Modiin   (01.30.11)
What does Netenyahu have to do with this? These people support all violence no matter what it will lead to, no matter what its about. I am more disgusted with the Leftists than the Arabs since I do not expect any better from the Arabs.
20. you cannot build democracy through violence
Golan ,   Modiin   (01.30.11)
these people only support violence.
21. Democracy is not compatible with islam
vendaval ,   Victoria, BC, Canada   (01.30.11)
... and vice versa. The real culprit is not Mubarak and Ben-Ali but "the religion of peace" keeping the region in obscurity and backwardness for centuries. The real danger is another Homeini...
22. Ivan from "Haifa"
David ,   Haifa, Israel   (01.30.11)
you dont like my country... GET OUT!!! somethng tells me you are either a russian thug who is not jewish or really an arab named mohammad or salma . either way go home... russia or jordan
23. Look at the pics of all the Israel-haters in Haifa
avraham ,   nyc   (01.30.11)
24. the arabs love the rights Israel gives them but they hate Is
zionist forever   (01.30.11)
This is not going to lead to regional change because there are to many factors involved and you need all of them to be in place for there to be change but the arabs don't appreciate just how good they have it. In Egypt when they don't like the government they go out and riot and people get killed. In Israel when the arabs don't like the government they go out and vote on election day. When the arabs want to protest about government policy they are allowed t go out and demonstrate as long as its peaceful and they wont be met with riot police and soldiers. The arabs living here hate the country and they ally themselves with Israel's enemies but then they have all these freedoms that the enemies they support do not have.
25. Useful and useless idiots
Ilan ,   Ariel   (01.30.11)
They are anti the US, Egypt and Israel, but god forbid someone try to take away their Israeli social benefits.
26. 10 - no
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (01.30.11)
egyptians are distinct from arabs. you don't know what you're talking about.
27. Whatever is bad for Israel these 'citizens' favor
Shalom Freedman ,   Jerusalem Israel   (01.30.11)
The fall of the Mubarak regime might well lead to the end of 'peace' with Israel. This would be a major setback for us. Thus it is not surprising that the haters of Israel from within, want this.
28. #9 Ivan in Haifa
Madeleine ,   Rehovot Israel   (01.30.11)
Your posts are always ful lof hatred for Israel, so what the hell are you doing here? Whether you were born here to immigrant Russians or are an immigrant yourself, just get out and leave the rest of us alone. No-one forced you to come here; you are just poison. As David no. 22 said - there are plenty of Russian thugs and criminalsmany of whom adopt the Nazi's attitude to Jews adn Israel. I sure as hell hope you don't serve in the army because I'd hate to think what you'd do with a gun. You and your ilk are a h uge blot on our beautiful country.
29. This kind of thinking is what makes people to be againts Jew
Felix ,   Spain   (01.30.11)
30. #28
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.30.11)
Madeleine, Ivan is from Argentina,so he told us here some weeks ago. He came here with is elderly father. The less notice we take of his rants, the better.
