1. Two of bibis biggest mistakes were ehud
jason white ,   afula, israel   (01.19.12)
buraq and weinstein.
2. Kach is banned but this slime is allowed?
David ,   Montreal   (01.19.12)
Zoabi herself confirmed the meeting, saying she saw nothing wrong with her actions: "The entire world recognizes Hamas now and I think it's time Israel did so as well. We don't consider Hamas to be a terror organization," Why because they "only" want to kill Jews?
3. Weinstein & Barak should be fired!
Reuven   (01.19.12)
Zoabi & Tibi are dangerousa traitors. They belong in jail...not the Knesset!
4. Enough is enough.
Sami ,   New York, USA   (01.19.12)
Enough is enough. She must really think that Jews are idiots.
5. she keeps contradicting herself
zionist forever   (01.19.12)
" The entire world recognizes Hamas now I think it's the time Israel did " Outside the islamic world most countries who care either way about the Israel / arab conflict don't recognize Hamas. " We don't consider Hamas to be a terror organization " who is we, Israel prehaps? I would also like to know whats her definition of a terror organization, isn't suicide bombings an the firing of rockets into Israeli towns considered terror? If it is terror then doesn't that make Hamas a terrorist organization? Her & Tibi should be stripped of their citizenship, have their assets seized and then be given a one way ticket to Hamastan.
6. zoabi should not be tried
mohson   (01.19.12)
zoabi motivates israelis to defend themselves in all spheres. Allowijng her to speak freely even across red lines is a good safety valve for arabs who hate israel while taking its benefits. More dangerous to israel than zoabi is tsipi livni who runs to an multidindicted winograd deemed failure in security olmert for approval, even as lapid did the same t hing. i told ynet that lapid;s father enabled olmert and wined and dined with him. And lapid is cut from the same cloth as olmert. A man who is good with words but at his core a dumb ignoramus. And after all israel has suffered under olmert, livni runs to him still. She is incredibly stupid,r eally dumb.
7. she's hot ;) mmm yummy
(01.19.12)
8. Sure, just like Cantor et al
Nina ,   NYC   (01.19.12)
who promise Netanyahu they will do his bidding in Congress against US Foreign policy.
9. An enemy agent sits in the Knesset
Spencer ,   Israel   (01.19.12)
Tibi in the knesset is bad enough but that Zoabi is still allowed to sit there is a disgrace. She should be behind bars.
10. thank you ynet
cristian ,   argentina   (01.20.12)
for 4 or 5 years i have been preaching with freedom of speech throught the written word,i got the possibility of sowing the good seed without censure and you published my messages,i think sometimes you were angry or me and other times you were happy or me or why not both together the same feeling and thought, but i understand that it works like this to us humans ,with many contradictions which hurts deep inside but at last to know what is wrong -being outside the commandments-and right-being inside the commandments- shalom my friends and blessings
11. Zoabi should be tried for treason
David ,   Montreal, Canada   (01.20.12)
She is a spy paid by Israel for the Pals!
12. Indict, Try, Prosecute, and Incarcerate
Noah Lev ,   LosAngelesUSA   (01.20.12)
Its obvious that Israel's ethics laws an procedures in the Knesset, need a thorough review. What would the US Congress do if, for example, a legislator were to meet with Al Qqeda, the head of the Taliban, or a No. Korean leader, w/o explicit permission? This is the govt of Israel's fault, as well as the fact it has no constituion. If a Knesset member meets with an enemy of Israel (declared), there should be repercussions. She gets away with the flotilla, and now this...are Israel's afraid of the backlash I wonder? If her, why not Koch, as one poster comments? Why was M. Kahane banned? Why are Jewish leaders being investigated, and indicted, AND incarcerated, so frequently and while in office, while she is free to meet with a group designed to kill every Jew, in Israel and the Diaspora? I would go further, and try her for treason..with criminal punihment. Think about our legislator who was too close to a lobbyist..and others with nefarious behavior.
13. # 7
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (01.19.12)
You need to get out more. Then again, perhaps not.
14. Mature democratic countries...
Max Merbaum ,   Los Angeles   (01.20.12)
Mature democratic countries find ways to break their own rules. Israel is not a social experiment in democracy, it is the territorial representation of the Jews. These MK's are without a doubt a fifth column and must be regarded as such. What more do wee need?
15. #8 Nina, you heard them make promises?
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (01.20.12)
Until you can said you did, button your lip
16. She is not haredi--it will never happen
m   (01.20.12)
17. Zoabi you're a fool
Daniel ,   Canada   (01.20.12)
"The entire world recognizes Hamas now and I think it's time Israel did so as well." Really? Last time I checked the US regards them as terrorists, so does Canada, so does the entire EU. Even Russia has distanced itself from them. And they're not a terrorist organization? Tell that to over 500 Israeli civilians who were killed in suicide bombings on buses, cafes, night clubs that were perpetrated by the Hamas. Zoabi you should surrender your passport and identity card and get the hell out! You're pushing all the wrong buttons and one day, my dear, you'll end up paying for it dearly.
18. Israel's stupidity goes over the limits...
Phoenix ,   Israel   (01.20.12)
Which other country in the world would have enemies in their parlament? NO one!!! What other country in the world would let a traitor not just to be un punished but to keep working at the parlament with earning amazing amounts of money while dealing with terrorists? NO other country but Israel. The arabs watch Israel as a country of idiots and fools and that's what it is. It's a shame to be that stupid. It's a shame to let these parasites in our knesset. What the hell is wrong with this country why the stupid Israeli politicians don't open their eyes. We are being betrayed by arabs, invaded by africans, used by haredim and no one cares!
19. Why waist tax payers money on a trial.
Mike ,   Raanana Israel   (01.20.12)
Strip her of Israeli citizenship and give her the same trial as her buddys in Gaza would if she would of been a memeber of there goverment visitin Israel.
20. no, not behind bars....
Dana Rothschild ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (01.19.12)
you don't want , Spencer, make out of her a "martyr", don't you? she has to be expelled at once to PA or to Gaza.... it will be enoughj bad.... only imagine her in hijab....
21. zoabi and hamas
joel ,   usa   (01.20.12)
zoabi must be tried of treason and be removed from the israeli parliament, she is violating israel's laws!
22. # 13
Birdi ,   Israel   (01.20.12)
Not.
23. Incarceration not enough
Lawrence ,   South Africa   (01.20.12)
If it is proved that she in any way aided Hamas in any type of terror activity, the following steps would be prudent and just: 1. Revocation of Israeli citizenship. 2. Execution. Treason combined with aiding murderers in planning murders would warrant such punishment. This woman does these audacious things because she is convinced she can get away with it. Its time for Israel to make an example. This will tell the Arab citizens that their nonsense will not be tolerated forever.
24.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ,
UNCLE JOE ,   CT USA   (01.20.12)
IT is like having members of congress here , supporting ,and even meeting with al qaida leaders ,and saying ,they do not consider osama bin shit [excuse my language] ,to be a terrorist . WAY WAY beyond unacceptable .WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU ISRAEL.
25. since you are doing it to yourself,ISRAEL,
UNCLE JOE ,   CT USA   (01.20.12)
then why don't you also invite mahmood zahar ,khaled masaal ,and even hassan nasrallah ,to be part of your kenesset ,AND have immunity too ..mind as well . and why don't you let them also bring their weapons and explosives with them come on ISRAEL be nice .it is ''freedom of cheese'' .
26. To Everyone
Vlad   (01.20.12)
Nothing will be done unless the people take action. Everyone, petition the Attorney-General and State Prosecutor's Office, encourage your friends to do the same, form Facebook groups, etc. Enough despising and doing nothing, now is the time for ACTION. This has gone on far enough.
27. Arabs&apologists routinely abuse freedoms including press in
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (01.20.12)
Israel They go to Israeli websites and spread their lies, pollemics,distortions, half truths and antisemitic outbursts knowing they can get away with it. Imagine if sister Zoabi tried on her antics in any of the neighborhood versions of Islamic Paradise.
28. Yesterday it was Tibi, while today Zoabi. It is high time
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (01.20.12)
The Knesset came up with a way to ensure traitors of the nation-state of the Jewish people, Israel, and collaborators with its mortal enemies can enter the house of representatives, the parliament, of our people and national home. Enough!! Day!!
29. The real issue: Most Israeli Arabs agree with Zoabi.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.20.12)
It is true, as many posters note, that Zoabi should be tried for treason. It is also true the treacherous Arab parties should be banned. Obscenely, the patriotic Kach Party was banned but Arab parties aren't. However, the real issue that we must ultimately deal with is that most Israeli Arabs agree with Zoabi.
30. did any of you expect different? from balad?
