61. #59 swab jockey, not so simple
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
The girl STOLE from her father because the BOY conned her into doing it Only a simpleton and anti-semite such as yourrslef would attempt to portray it as if it were Romeo & Juleit in love
62. #57 Ameridane - There's a difference
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
This fellow didn't have a dime of his own, much less a BMW, he used the girl to steal money from her father so het could get a phone She was fortunate that her father found out, she could have wound up in a massage parlor
63. Lebanon's Shame DO THE MATH
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
Learn to read and COMPREHEND, pay particular attention to the last line "The two agreed that every month, Moussa would give B. NIS 200 ($60) in cash to deposit in her father's bank account.” But something went wrong along the way" Back to school you go, this time take a reading comprehension course You may now partake of your Humble Pie
64. #59 Swab Jockey
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.30.11)
What would you do if you didn't have Jews to blame for your problems? The facts are plain & simple, he conned the girl into stealing her fathers credit card so he could get a phone It's theft by deception She was punished; she lost her job and had to stay home As for the Palestinian he was now required to work by the rules of the employer, which is the same for anyone that works, he ran away in preference to paying his debt to the girl You’re fortunate that you have this forum to vent your feelings, it’s every so much cheaper than seeing the shrink that you really need I have a great way for you to show you’re sincere, come on over and express your opinions in person
65. For Jaberwacky # 61...What con?
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (07.30.11)
You must be projecting your own intentions onto this story. There is no statement that the boy was ever involved in the theft of the card, nor that he did anything wrong. Apparently you are thinking that if YOU were in the position of the boy, that is what you would do. Its almost too funny reading the posts of these talkbackers who deplore the 'Arab' boys. Is your masculinity so threatened that you would be afraid to compete with Arab males for the affections of Jewish girls? Face it, you are not angry to protect the women, you are angry and threatened because, apparently, a Jewish girl was friendly with an Arab boy, and preferred his company and friendship over Shmucks like you. Grow Up.
66. Hello, anyone awake out there?
Ayelet HaShachar ,   Maale Adummim   (07.30.11)
Smart guy got the not so smart girl to buy a smart phone for him--that we know for sure. Perhaps he was using her to get stuff for him. Before you cry racism: please keep in mind that the free mingling of men and women is not accepted in Islamic society, that a western woman's friendly "hello" may be misinterpreted (or maybe in this case, correctly interpreted) as a come on, that enough Jewish women have disappeared into Arab villages unable to leave that there is now an organization devoted to helping Jewish women get out, and that there have been calls across the Arab world to use rape against Jewish women as a form of "resistance." My teenage daughter was approached by an Arab worker at Kef Tzuba and he invited her to go to Russia with him. Maybe it was teenage banter, but in light of the differences in culture, gender relationships and the overall security situation, it is better to air on the side of caution if not suspicion to keep our daughters safe.
67. Jews and Racism - @ Eli #26
M. Martin ,   NYC/Tel-Aviv   (07.30.11)
It sickens me when Jews openly adopt racism. You obviously think of yourself as a white person. Problem is that most "real" white people disagree. Know this: what goes around comes around. It's as if racism against Blacks or Arabs is OK but racism against, say, Jews, is not. The thing is that they are really all part of the same complex. If some racism is OK then all of it is OK. LIkewise if some racism is not OK then ALL of it is not OK. Some Neo-Nazi can easily come around and say that if it's OK to hate Blacks and Arabs it's just as OK to hate the Jews. By what logic will you say that they are wrong? If you say Blacks and Arabs are criminals but Jews are not, they will come out and say that Jews are bigger criminals because they control the media, banks, the US government and are oppressing the Palestinians. If Jews are also openly racist, they will have no defense against anti-Semites who already believe that Jews are racist against everyone who is not Jewish. Watch. Your. Step.
68. fOR 2000 YEARS WE HAVE BEEN SEGREGATED
Leslie ,   Jerusalem   (07.31.11)
We did not return to Eretz Yisrael to abandon our way of live as Am Segula. With all the unempolyment in Israel why arn't Jews being employed in preference to Arabs in the Zionist Homeland?
69. Racist Gaza/Hamas always???
Ya'akov ,   Jerusalem   (07.31.11)
I cringe everytime some ignoramus says something to the effect of, "If Rami or you are such 'racists' then go to Gaza/Hamas and join them!" Has everybody gone mad and swallowed the far-left propaganda that The PA arabs of Judea and Samaria are not racists and Jew-haters? Let me remind you that both the PLO/PA and Hamas wish to eradicate us, COMPLETELY! nor has the PLO/PA removed the destroy Israel clause from their charter. The only difference between the PLO/PA is the level of Islamic observance regarding their own people.
70. Ynet news has Already convicted Rami Levy
ranjan ,   la, usa   (07.31.11)
Editor of Ynetnews Your headline, "Supermarket adopts racist policy?" is not a question but direct statement making Rami Levy guilty of crime without the proof or a trial. You have put a question mark to save your skin. Are you self hating Jews?
71. Reverse the situation
BEN JABO ,   USA   (07.31.11)
The Arab girl steals the credit card from her father to buy a gift for her Jewish male friend Her father catches on that his card was used for an unauthorized purchase, Next step, they kill her for bring shame on the family Fraternizing between Female Arabs and Jewish Males is totally out of the question
72. #1 Tamir - Kulam b'yachad
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (07.31.11)
I don't think so Are you trying to say that all the Jewish girls that work there steal their fathers credit cards so they can buy gifts for their arab friiends ? Smoking is one thing, stealing is quite another
73. Something many seem to forget as a possibility
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (07.31.11)
LOVE IS BLIND . Maybe that this boy was the first one showing some interest at her ? And she fell in love ? Maybe that he too sincerely loved her , without some ulterior motive ? Who knows ? When a woman fall's in love , don't tell her to think about some possible consequences . "this will not happen with this boy , i'm sure" , will be her reaction. This is not meant to defend someone , but can't this be true
74. Rami Levy hired as many Arabs as Jews
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (07.31.11)
in his supermarket in Gush Etzion. there were as many Arab supervisors as Jewish ones. In a region once noted for Arab terrorism, the situation became quiet and relatively peaceful. Rami Levy should be congratulated for his part in all this. On the other hand, we have had enough of Arab men taking in niave Jewish females. It's been going on for a long time. We even have an organization, one which has been active for decades, which helps Jewish females, kept and guarded in Arab villages, towns and homes, these Jewish girls are often physically and mentally abused, their children used as objects of blackmail. One more item: Who ever heard of a Jewish male having a love relationship with an Arab Muslim female? You haven't because even if such a relationship were to occur, the "offending" Arab female would be murdered by her own family. It's called "honour killing", in case you haven't heard of the term.
75. Rami Levi
Nechama ,   Jerusalem   (07.31.11)
Ayelet 1 I could not agree with you more ! As an occasional shopper at Rami Levy at the Gush and have, myself, experienced either over familiar Arab males trying to 'chit - chat' or on the other hand almost aggressive behavior from others. I do belief that all men should be kept at a cordial distance at any work place, it has nothing to do with race or religion, but for your own self protection !!!
76. Shameful racist!
Appalled ,   tel aviv   (07.31.11)
How disgusting. This man's forefathers absolutely hated being a shunned nation all over the world. One thing is clear: RELIGION - all of it - has created more division and hatred than anything else on this planet. Don't buy at Rami Levi. We won't miss you.
