61. PR to pre-empt Operation clean up
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (01.19.12)
Like doctored photos of Muhammed Durra, this picture plays on kids and bars. Smart PR to suggest to the world how hard done by are the terror gangs in GAZA. If we shut down the electric supply, whever terror fire rockets at civilians Sarkozy, Clegg Cameron will shout disproportional
62. William....LOL
(01.19.12)
63. #41 Yes Harold, sanction the Palestinians
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.19.12)
For thousands of terror attacks against Israel, abusing foreign aid and conning the world with lies.
64. "Poor Hamas-Poor PLO"
(01.19.12)
The "poor" innocents of Hamas and Fatah/PLO funded by Arab League. Always the perpetual "Victims", always claiming to be the "partners" for Peace until the worthless one sided UN isn't looking at which time they fire thousands of missiles into the truly innocent victims of Israeli society. IRAN'S pawns act out in a shameless, and brutal war of attrition aimed at only one purpose: Destruction of the only Democratic Country in the region. This aggression by Hamas, Iran, PLO, Hezbollah would not be tolerated anywhere else in the world. Democratic people of the world: Don't let them double down on their lies. Reject them for what they are. Shameless and useless waste of office space at UN.Truth is obviously in short supply at UN. End US Aid to UN, and only allow Democratic governments into newly formed Association of Democratic Countries. No Dictators Allowed!
65. The poison festering mother earth - islam
Yossi   (01.19.12)
Mr. Graczek # 5 - Can you please tell us when will New York, the US, and the rest of the world be delivered from the yoke of this damned UN usurpation?, from the arab yoke pulling the strings of their marionettes that occupy this den of vultures feasting on the Billions $$$ allocated to them instead of relieving misery and butchery of their " beloved brothers " in Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Egypt and countless more? What happen to the fat mamas, papas, overstuffed kids shown throughout the world in the media?; the luxury hotels, restaurants, pools, Malls, etc. that must accomodate UN hyenas. Today, Haniyeh, like all potentates travel around the world, cup in hand, in order to replenish their bank accounts. When will the civilized world put an end to the islamination of their countries; or when will this den of islamic deviants cease to exist in the new world -- we all know that the ' old world ' is a lost cause gone forever.
66. Gaza blockade
JOE ,   UK   (01.19.12)
THE PICTURE (THE CHILDREN BEHIND BARS) THEY WERE WATCHING SOMTHING NOTHING TO DO WITH BLOCKADE AND AS FOR THE FOOD THEIR MARKETS ARE FULL OF IT NONE OF THE PALESTINES LOOK SKINNY ITS ALL PACK OF LIES
67. To: No. 12 -- SECOND ATTEMPT
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.19.12)
Basically, I don't care. I'd shut off the power for good, and put an immediate stop to tens of thousands of metric tons of humanitarian aid trucked into the Gaza Strip by Israel every day. Let the mealy-mouthed international community pick up the slack. (Hint: They won't.) What do you think about THAT idea?
68. To: No. 41
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.19.12)
Why don't you ask native Americans living in incredible poverty on reservations what they think about "open air huge prisons?" Hmm? Gaza is run by terrorists. Terrorists deserve their fate. Got a problem with that? Do you also think that the United States was wrong in executing bin Laden (may his name be cursed throughout eternity)? Multiply what he did against what Israel has had to endure for seven decades, and do the math. You are one sorry loser, Harold.
69. They collectivly voted for Hamas.
rebecca ,   Modiin   (01.19.12)
70. Gaza, an open prison......
tiki ,   belgium   (01.19.12)
Absolutely and the prisonwards who are holding the keys.....Hamas! **Ask the Arab population of Jerusalem changing their Israeli pasport/ID to a ''Pal/Jordanian one and see what answer you will get.....NO! **Illegal houses are torn down in every civilized country....... including israel! It's about time the countries of the UN stop the policy of ""Ruling by lie"", for untill this ends, there won't be peace in the ME!
71. A bunch of bs not worth the paper it was done up on
Ypip ,   Canada   (01.19.12)
72. THE GAZAN-SRIP AND SO ON...
A WONDER-SJ. R. ,   MULTIVERSE   (01.19.12)
VIVA TO THE GAZAN/PALESTINIAN PEOPLE AND TO EVERY PEOPLE A.S.O....
73. UN Report on human rights
Spencer ,   Israel   (01.19.12)
I have one word for the UN report...BULL**IT! Every cent spent of maintaining this worthless organisation is a waste of good money that could be better spent on helping those in real need. Did the UN report show photographs of the Five start hotel and supermarkets in Gaza? No, because this would have shown exactly what the worth of their report was.
74. A question to the Sec General :
jeremy eliot   (01.19.12)
Firing missiles into Israeli cities, thus targeting civilians by the thousands ... why is that not collective punishment ?
75. It'sTime to Shut Down the UN
(01.19.12)
The UN which came about as a responible body to deal with the aftermath of the Holocaust is not worth the electricity it takes to light the halls. It's mission has succumbed to darkness, and falseness. It is nothing more than a forum for promoting the opposite of it's original purpose.
76. # 54
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.20.12)
Solomon, you forgot to mention the brand new Gaza country club where all the rich & famous Gazans spend their free time & money!!
