She openly flouts Israeli law -- the law she has taken an oath to uphold -- by traveling to Libya and kowtowing to Qaddafi and by sailing aboard the MAVI MARMARA whose stated purpose was to breach a fully legal and internationally recognized Israeli naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. She writes an enthusiastic and inflammatory foreword to a book authored by a well-known hater of Israel. Is that really your idea of someone possessed of a beautiful smile and a beautiful heart? She is my idea of someone who is a traitor to her country. It is people like Zoabi -- and like you -- that are the reason you will NEVER be integrated in the State of Israel. No worries, though, you can head up Zoabi's fan club from Amman or Gaza City. You can visit her there, too, because we're not far away from stripping her of her Parliamentary immunity. No room for treasonous individuals in Israel.

33. #3 sk USA: KNOW your ENEMY !
moshe ,   Tivon   (01.27.12)
#3 sk USA: Its important to KNOW your ENEMY its true that for the last 1,000 years the Arab world has NOT contributed to the advancement of knowledge. Individual Arabs living in the WEST, MDs, engineers, etc today make important contributions while the Arab societies they emmigrated do NOT. Knowledge was treasured 1,000 years ago, by Arab rulers (dictators) and their Arab advisors, in Arab countries: they encouraged and supported medicine, astronomy and mathematics. That (ancient) Arab culture kept alive the writings and work of the ancient Greeks too. Information that would have been lost to the backward Western world ! It's important to understand the enemy ! It's important to understand that 200 million Arabs reproduce x20 as many genuises as the 10 million Jews. Impoverished Jews dreamt their children would be Doctors...what do todays Arabs dream of ? They send their genuises to tend sheep. moshe
34. Embarrassingly weak
Ibrahim Ibn Yusuf ,   Rosario, Argentina   (01.27.12)
This article contains plenty of embarrassingly weak logic. If Israeli Arab leaders meeting Gaddhafi means support for that tyrant, what do you make of Apartheid South Africa's tyrant John Vorster having been hosted by the likes of Menachem Begin? If honoring the shahids is honoring terrorism, what can be said of Israel honoring the terrorist David Raziel, who claimed the lives of scores of Arabs with bombs in markets? Rosenfeld talks of "anti-Semitic British writer Ben White." Yet there's not a single line in White's production containing an antisemitic statement. Probably Rosenfeld thinks that White is a smart antisemite who knows how to disguise his hate, but in the real world, as opposed to converted audiences, you've got to present evidence to make a claim against someone. As for Arabs committing more crimes than Jews in Israel, it's the same as with blacks in the USA, or the Roma in Eastern Europe. Namely, that impoverished ethnic groups are more prone to crime than affluent ones: big discovery, Mr. Rosenfeld, but it's poverty, not ethnicity, that triggers crime. Once again, the victims of economic discrimination are being blamed for the results of such discrimination.

Have no fear. Those sorry days are rapidly drawing to a close. If the Arabs cannot be loyal to Israel, they have no business living in Israel. We have finally run out of patience. The Arabs are incapable of change.

37. Israelis are fools for expecting anything different.
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.28.12)
It is not the least bit surprising that many Israeli Arab leaders hate Israel and endorse terror against Israel. In fact, Israelis are fools for expecting anything different. Do we really expect most Israeli Arabs to love Israel more than their own brothers and sisters?

God has nothing to do with the Koran. It is a book of confusion that can't even measure up to what it says, because it constantly contradicts itself. Therefore, it doesn't matter what the Koran says. If you're going to thank someone for the Koran, thank "the deceiver", "the plotter", "the most proud one". You know, Heylal bin Sahar, Lucifer, Allah, Satan, the Devil which you worship. The Bible which does meet it's own standards of truth and consistency, says it is you who will have "bad" final days, as well as a worse eternity. Allah, your so called god, will be thrown into the lake of fire forever. However, you still have a chance to escape that fate through Jesus Christ, and ONLY through Jesus Christ. Don't choose poorly.

Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.28.12)
Nothing in Israeli law prohibited meeting with officials of the Republic of South Africa. On the other hand, travel to Libya -- at a time when Zoabi and Tibi went -- was a clear violation of the Israeli law which both Zoabi and Tibi took and oath to uphold. Oh, please. Thousands of Israelis died and thousands more maimed as a result of Arab suicide bombers and the like. So how do three dead Arabs rank against THAT? No, Ben White's vituperative attacks upon Israel are a matter of published record. Who is responsible for Arab poverty? Israeli Arabs do rather well. It is the Arabs living under the control of the ersatz "Palestine" Authority that have to cope with rampant inflation, 40% unemployment and hopelessness and despair. The blame for that lies squarely with the ersatz "Palestine" Authority. I note that Abbas, Erekat and the rest of that sordid bunch are multi-millionaires, principally as a result of their theft of money earmarked for the ordinary ersatz "Palestinians." How is that the fault of Israel? Finally -- there were a great many impoverished Jews throughout Europe, but they never turned to crime. There are a great many black people in the United States who live below the poverty line, but they do not turn to crime either. I'm sure the same holds true in other places as well. Degenerates are degenerates; economic status has nothing to do with it. You need to come up with a better and more realistic approach. Your so-called "argument" has more holes than Swiss cheese.
41. The arab victims? their children.allah's gift to the Devil
yossi   (01.28.12)
Israel's shameless arabs? NOT at all. I'll rather label our not so glorious lawmakers as shameless Jews. Someone has written " stupid " and I second it. -------------- And to you # 3, a muslim; Yes we do read about your vile and infamous koran. You and your evil ' phantom ' god will not live long enough to see our final days; but yours are written in the bible, a day to rejoice not by Jews alone, but by the whole of the civilized world.
42. @ #8 Scottish Muslim lover
Lenya ,   Australia   (01.29.12)
So you think Israel should stop complaining about the rock throwing at cars which killed and maimed many Jews? So you think Israel should listen to Arab MKs who call for anti-fadas against Israel and sides with Hamas and Fatah committing treason against a country that pays their wages allows them live peacful lives amongst Jews? No wonder you Scottish were ruled and over-lorded by the English for decades. It is people like you that Scotland lost their pride and identity. It wont be long before you will be ruled by the Islamic caliphate.
