1. He quits because the wealthy Jews will not buy from Dior.
(03.02.11)
2. BIGGER FISH TO FRY
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (03.02.11)
Galliano seems to have issues ,it is for him to solve ,he has been punished by Dior so I hope this matter is over ,done and dusted. I have eaten bigger things than him.
3. Would you drop subject already. Puke gets too much attention
leo ,   usa   (03.02.11)
4. Goodness, gracious me,...
Gideon Reader ,   USA   (03.02.11)
.. all that in one smarmy weasel looking package with the fashion taste of an oily Dennis the Peasant. Dior ought to be delighted to get shed of this gusano, Village People screamer. This Pee Yellow Galiano makes the late Queen Freddie Mercury look like a lumberjack, after a added quart of testostarone.
5. Yrah! Now that there is irrefutable evidence of guilt
(03.02.11)
he's been fired, and has ZERO cause of action. PIG!
6. Regrets - only when there's a price to pay
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, DC USA   (03.02.11)
Anyone think we would be hearing his regrets if he hadn't been fired and held up to ridicule? I think it was Aristotle who used the metaphor of the ball that has been thrown - it has already left your hand. Galliano has shown himself to be a piece of moral trash, and the damage has been done. Now he'll have to find a real job.
7. so he apolgized, big deal
citizen   (03.02.11)
so did Helen Thomas. Unfortunately, these apologies are not sincere.
8. Antisemite? Never during season!
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (03.02.11)
9. alcohol is the truth serum of celebreties
moishe ,   usa   (03.02.11)
Secretly, many harbor these views, just like the rest of society. When someone is ripped off or low-balled in bargaining, they say they were jewed. They dont even notice it is a slur.
10. Reminds me of
David ,   Zichron, IL   (03.02.11)
This whole rotten episode reminds me of Cohen's skits as BrĂ¼no: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2lKq794fII&feature=related
11. Losing a high paying prestiguous job should make him sorry.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (03.02.11)
12. Of course he's sorry - He just ended his career!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (03.02.11)
Ever heard of in vino veritas? Just like Mel Gibson. He tried to hide his rabid anti-Semitism behind booze!
13. Hes about as sorry as hitler his idol!
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (03.02.11)
too late.
14. now we know. hitler gay.
sweeter than honey ,   far away   (03.02.11)
15. He's only sorry because he lost his job
Falafelis ,   Montreal, Canada   (03.02.11)
16. Being sorry because you got busted doesn't count.
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (03.03.11)
I'm also sorry, sorry I wasn't there when he said it.
17. oy vey! what am i going to wear now ?
gays4israel ,   toronto   (03.03.11)

18. #17 try Prada honey you cant go wrong
Haim ,   Tel Aviv   (03.03.11)
Im a model on the catwalk if you know what i mean
19. You said separate the artist from the man?!
Joseph   (03.03.11)
It's like separating the soul from the body and what do you get? A corpse!!
20. to #14 Hitler was gay, during his military
ghostq   (03.03.11)
service he hang with the boys in the biblical sense, Eva was just a cover. everyone knows about it. they never had children not because he got partlal genatelia, but because he never touched Eva.
21. No. 17
NYC Girl   (03.03.11)
Who knew the Japanese were such big John Galliano fans? But, seriously, some of the worst co-called JAPs I've ever known weren't even Jewish. In fact, maybe it's time to expunge that insulting acronym from the lexicon because it's almost as demeaning as certain other epithets I'll refrain from mentioning.
22. I am against what he said.
noa ,   israel   (03.03.11)
But he was having a private conversation with somebody; he did not publicly state it. As heinous as it is, there are other issues here, such as invasion of privacy. And those people, why didn't they answer back right away, and say, "Well, you would go before us, because Hitler hated homosexuals." Please let us not let the law take the place of our own ability to answer back.
23. Galliano who?
Yaniv ,   Israel   (03.03.11)
24. Reply to 1
M. Gera ,   Skokie Illinois. US   (03.03.11)
Reply to number one. You are an idiot.
25. When people drink, the truth comes out.
(03.03.11)
He's only sorry because he wants his job back. He's another Helen Thomas, but I don't think she apologized.
26. Apologies my foot
Shalom ,   Ashdod, Israel   (03.03.11)
Lock up the bastard and throw away the keys. This way we can really prove that there is no place for people like him among us
27. Proportion and Pity
EM ,   Ra'anana   (03.03.11)
There's a huge difference between world leaders and politicians like Ahmadnejihad claiming admiration for Hitler and a sad, drunken fashion designer...sitting in a bar in a Jewish section of Paris or for historians spurning off against the Jews. Who among us has never denigrated another group of people (Blacks, Arabs, Gays, Left Wing, Right Wing..etc)...so that they can so sanctimoniously enjoy Galliano's disgrace! A little bit of proportion and pity would do all of us a lot of good.
28. GALLIANO IS DIRTY SCUM
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (03.03.11)
This scums' apology is worthless.
29. Silly stupid bastard
Talula ,   Israel   (03.03.11)
"I love Hitler?' he's obviously clueless that Hitler murdered thousands and thousands of gay men. Well done to the house of Dior for kicking his anti-Semetic ass out the door. The man, just like Mel Gibson, is history. Good job to! He's a F**k-wit!
30. What is #17 going to wear?
Joseph   (03.04.11)
Try wearing the coat of truth.
