1. the west loves terrorists?
joker ,   sydney australia   (11.01.11)
thats a pretty insulting headline. governments and leftists may love terrorists, we the people however hate them and have no choice but to live with them due to mass forced immigration
2. Anyone who kills a Jew becomes a "hero"
jason white ,   afula, israel   (11.01.11)
to this neo nazi world. Israel should have spread terror against those in eurabia that work against our survival. Killing reporters or politicians or bombing news organizations. Killing foreign correspondents that publicize the arab propaganda. Banning from our news media any arab terrorist or politician. Banning n.g.o.s that support the arabs and arresting and imprisoning foreign agitators as well as domestic ones.
3. Evil is Evil!
Taz Man ,   USA   (11.01.11)
There's only one thing that one can do about pure evil--kill it! God bless Israel and His Jerusalem (Muslim free)! A Christian Zionist
4. Bring in the death penalty and they will be forgotten!
Jayjay ,   Israel   (11.01.11)
5. thank you for the piece
Elio Cohen   (11.01.11)
Barghouti and the others have been supported by the media in their crimes
6. Giulio Meotti, live long and prosper
citizen   (11.01.11)
and thanks for your devotion to Israel, and the truth. Your articles are always spot on. Fighting terrorism, historical distortions and plain lies is an up-hill battle. Mainstream media outlets and their journalists no longer investigate, no longer seem know the difference between facts and lies, no longer dare to call a spade a spade. It's as if the whole lot of them (especially the ones writing about Israel) have been brainwashed by the constant, and relentless, emotional and psychological manipulations put forth by the Palestinians and their supporters. So, once again, thank you for all your efforts to present factual evidence against the lies and deceits perpetrated by the enemies of the Jewish people and Israel.
7. The west doesn't love terrorists
Talula ,   Israel   (11.01.11)
It just doesn't like us
8. If Hamas couldn't free him recently in the Shalit deal...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (11.01.11)
it's fairly safe to say Mr. Barghouti and his cherubic face won't be seeing the light of day for quite a good while.
9. The West loves terrorists?
tiki ,   belgium   (11.01.11)
Absolutely. As long as it is 'against Jews/Israeli's and 'not on their soil! Ira=terrorists, Basks=terrorists, Baader/Meinhof=terrorists, PKK=terrorists, al Qaeda=terrorists, Arafat=activist,, Barghouti=Activist, Yassin= activist in a wheelchair, Abbas=President of the activists, etc.etc. etc.
10. Barghouti should be treatet very well.......
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (11.01.11)
exactly like bin Laden !
11. "The West" The saga of the monster under the bed.
Josh   (11.01.11)
Understand that everytime you see one of these scare articles meant to drive fear in the hearts of Israelis that there is a monster under the bed and therefore, it is about oppressing you. To get Jews to accept the leadership's (religious and non religious) green light for oppression of the native Jews lest they go to leave for Liberty's sake and get bit by the monster under the bed. The "West" by no means support Palestinians. Most of the West can't stand these mooks. Only groups that brainwash followers into some "for the good" social cause sell hero Palestinians and these groups oddly find themselves with close ties and funding from the same oppressors in the land. For example Noam Chomsky helps support groups that are willing to play the monster under the bed. Mind games that help oppress the Jewish people. Articles like these are only about oppressing native Jews and not really about any sentiment in the "west" for terrorist Palestinians. The headline is for fear not FYI. Most could care less about a nothing country that has virtually no GNP or natural resources. Most don;t even know this man's name. What was it again?
12. Mr. Meotti

BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (11.01.11)
When the World Trade Center was destroyed, killing three thousand people in the process Additional cheers, when the Pentagon was hit & flight 93 was driven into the ground in Pennsylvania
14. ABSOLUTELY MOST STUPID ARTICLE EVER
Jewbilation ,   NYC, USA   (11.01.11)
MORONIC! Go take a creative writing course. Bargooti is a killer, no hero. Agrandizing this pile of garbage is so far below current reading standards, as to be embarrassing.
15. #9 spot on
mickey pieterkosky ,   RSA   (11.01.11)
except you forgot one other western comparison ISRAEL= terrorist state
16. Talula @ 7 The West etc.
Moragh USA   (11.01.11)
I hope you are not shedding a tear for the West, Talula, for it is exactly them that help the yellow-bellied arabs to get their throne!
17. Noodles @ 8

19. #14
Jonno ,   Jerusalem   (11.01.11)
And you may be the most stupid reader ever; in fact I am not even sure that you can read. If you had read (and understood) the article you would be hanging your head in shame at your comment.
20. Magisterial
David Portnoy   (11.01.11)
Meotti
21. To no.1
Johnny ,   Nazareth   (11.01.11)

22. I have always said! Support
Jew Lover   (11.01.11)

24. Israel dont you fear ! God loves YOU !
Ben Zion   (11.01.11)
The west is acting foolish and seldestructive ! The west will pay a heavy price like all those who hate Israel! God is faithful to Israel !
25. Where is Europe's intelectual power
Avram Goldsmith ,   Toronto, Canada   (11.01.11)
Is it Europe so violence adictedand try to preach to Israel to stop defend ita self? As economical situation evolve seems that you will enjoy from a very hot to explosive situation with domestical terorism base on anarchism or Arab revenge because what's going around is coming around,
26. Meotti is right
Brod ,   USA   (11.01.11)
Meotti's treatise is brilliant. He is absolutely right. His book is a Must Read. The dark forces-Islamist-Jihadists and AntiSemites are unrelenting in their destruction of Israel. Israel needs to be strong, united and resolute in defending itself against these evil forces.
27. Barghouti will make Jordan to Palestinian State.
E,M Jordan is Pales ,   SF   (11.01.11)
28. (15) mickey
tiki ,   belgium   (11.01.11)
micky pieterkosky, you're a certified dimwit.
29. Yes, the West loves dictators, too
berlonski ,   berlin   (11.01.11)
... like Italian's prime minister who was/is good friends with the dictators Gaddaffi and Putin ... and Meotti is one of the strongest supporters of Berlusconi in the Italian Media ...
30. He is considered to be an intellectual in FRG
chantalle.ezer ,   Frankfurt Germany   (11.02.11)
Barghouti is considered as a dove, as an intellectual. Needless to say, it is the idea of the ultra-left that is openly anti-semitic. Barghouti is also an option for many university teachers in Heidelberg and Frankfurt. Ch. ezer
