1. Bahrain

The Bahraini response to the protests make Israel's response to riots at the security fence look tame. For that matter, the Libyan, Irani, Egyptian, Jordanian (and everyone else's) responses were ten times as harsh as Israel's, even though Israel faces far more violent and aggressive protests. I wonder what all the apologists for the ersatz "Palestinians" and their violent protests at the security fence have to say about that.
2. ***Sarah*** They have nothing to say, as

You don't seriously mean to say that because Bahrain is not a democracy it's perfectly okay to mow down sleeping people, do you? Because that is exactly what you are saying. They were not protesting violently, they were SLEEPING. Contrast the Bahraini response to sleeping people with Israel's measured response to violent riots. Democracy is not the issue here. Typically, you have missed the point by a mile.
6. One more reason why
Yakov   (02.17.11)
we are not like the others in the region. Israel with all the wars and the delicate situation is in still allows for freedom of its people to protest and to choose its leaders. This is something Israelis should be justly proud.

joel ,   usa   (02.18.11)
immoral & radical people "sleep" on the streets, not because they have no shelter or home, but the intention is to disturb others & molest them! they should be removed because the streets are made for passage and not for bed!
