1. ahahahahah yeeea of course the yeshiva guys
Ester   (10.10.11)

2. Ester- what does it matter????
cohen ,   Israel   (10.10.11)
If they were from the Yeshiva or not- It is matter this ugly hate crime was done by ugly people living here in Israel- such people must kicked out of Israel, or at list sit in jail 6-7 years. This is the only way to calm them down.
3. the country is to small for arabs and Jews
zionist forever   (10.10.11)
Whats happening now is the tip of the iceberg. The Jews & arabs always have and probably always will hate each other governments have just tried to cover it up for 63 years because this kind of thing is not good for PR. The arabs support Israel's enemies and the Jews see them as a fifth collum and they are enemies. Then you have the arab politicians like Tibi & Zoubi who carry out all kind of stunts and proudly let us all know their loyalty lies with the arab world and the only thing they want from Israel is the freedoms they are entitled to which they would not get anywhere in the arab world. If Zouabi was in Saudi Arabia she would probably be spending the next 20 years in jail for the stunts she has been pulling. The Jews & arabs mix just about as well as fire and water and the country is to small for both to ever live together in peace. If the tit for tat desecration of places of worship and graves doesn't stop then we risk sparing a civl war between Jews & arabs which will only damage Israel's image abroad and streghen the liberals who hate the idea of a Jewish state.
4. jaffa cemeteruies
Richard ,   Chapala Mexico   (10.11.11)
Whoever did this committed an act of racist heat. If, in fact, it was my fellow Jews who did it, they should be ashamed of themselves. For years, our cemeteries, synagogues, and all institutions have been vandalized. this was usually only the beginning of worse atrocities. How can we possibly do this to other people? What message does it send, other than hate? Shame on whoever did this.
5. Jaffan's desecrated their pwm cemeteries
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (10.11.11)
The most modern Suq in Jaffa which was built on Jaffa's "old cemetery". ... 'Irsheed, Located south of al-Manshyyah, which was founded by Egyptians ... The school carries the name of its founder, a wealthy merchant by the name ... The mosque* is still standing, but it is abandoned and need serious renovations *(HASAN BEK) Arabs don't respect their own dead
6. #1 Ester - Don't cast stones
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (10.11.11)
You didn't see anything for yourself, did you ? Have you bothered to consider that it was Arabs wanting to create an incident, as they have so many times in the past ?
7. Little timeline problem with Jews committing this vandalism
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (10.11.11)
CIFWatch points out: ... the attacks are reported to have taken place at 4PM on Friday, the eve of Yom Kippur, any religious Jew would have been eating the final meal before the fast. (For those observing Yom Kippur in Israel, the final meal was to be finished at 4:38, 20 minutes before candle lighting on Oct. 7). The closest Israeli settlements are around 25 km east of Jaffa. So, we are to believe that religious settlers violated the prohibition against driving on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar in order to vandalize Arab graves in Jaffa? Maybe it was Michelle Dor or Uri Misgav since they are the only 2 Israelis who don't keep Yom Kippur?

Those Arabs that did it, have no shame They built a Souk (Market) on top of one of their old cemeteries FYI- They also destroyed more than 50,000 Jewish graves that were on the Mount of Olives, after Jordan took control of the Old City of Jerusalem in 1948, they also burned Joseph's tomb a few times, last time time they desecrated it by painting Swastikas on it READ MY #5 WHICH APPEARS RGITH AFTER YOUR LETTER
