1. there is a problem
fad egypt   (11.13.11)
what i understand that these legalizations are attemps made by the national camp to delegtimize and to weaken the left to stop its suicidal policies but there is a problem here , is that if the right is fighting to preserve the rights of israel to control judea and samaria and to build there against the will of the leftist NGOs like peace now so in that case israel must annex judea and samaria , in order that it becomes a part of israel like tel aviv so when a leftist movement comes against building in judea and samaria so it will be illegetimate , so it will be dissolved because it is calling to stop building in a part of israel which is recognized by the israeli government and by the system , but now any one spoke against peace now will be slamed as anti democratic because judea and samaria is a disputed land , and the government of israel doesnt consider it a part of israel like tel aviv , so here the leftists will be defended as people who have their own opinion which can be negotiated later and can be compromised so israel must annex judea and samaria and say no to land for peace talks so in that case the leftist NGOs who defend the palestinians claims will be dissolved shalom
2. Not the Man....
Gideon Reader   (11.13.11)
...your father was. Too bad. some "advances" are retreats/ Worse. Moral routs.
3. To Mr. Rivlin
Abraham Nachmias ,   Petach Tikva IL   (11.13.11)
If you feel that "the princes are isolated" it's probably because you are isolated from Am Israel, you Meridor, Begin and others who forgot your principles so to be able to clinch to power, shame on you!
4. Rivlin you will not God willing be in the next knesset. we
Ron ,   Israel   (11.14.11)
don't need to elect leftist pretending to be likudniks. join labor or kadima and go away.
5. The US
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (11.14.11)
The only rational case against these laws is that the NGOs would be able to avoid prosecution, either by legal means or by a sympathetic court. On the other hand, this would further expose these NGOs for what they are. Instead of attacking the Likud, Rivlin should demand that Israel copy the US "foreign agents registration act" to expose anyone who actually works in support of Hamas.
6. Ron
AMD ,   Tel Aviv   (11.14.11)
...and when they come for you one day Ron because your views are no longer sufficiently "loyal", what will you say then? Despite the supposedly "left wing" judiciary, TV, newspaper, army and police, the right wing has still dominate Israeli politics and policy for the last 30 + years. It seems that the right still managed to get its message across pretty well despite all these "forces" ranged against it. Maybe they weren't quite so "left" or so bad and actually allowed for freedom of expression and a rule of law that protected all equally. Maybe one day when your grandchildren put you in jail for your "old-fashioned moderate" views will you understand how dangerous the path is that you currently support.
