1. "Moderates"
Carl   (03.26.12)
And this is from a "moderate" Arab country. BTW when will Morocco end its occupation of West Sahara?
2. I dedicate this article to Thomas Friedman
Nour ,   One-State   (03.26.12)
He did allege that the Arab revolutions "had nothing to do with Palestine or Arab foreign policy". Wake up everyone, Arabs have not and will never forget Palestine!
3. Ban Moroccans from entering Israel
Steve ,   London UK   (03.26.12)
4. Judea & Samaria were created by violence according to Torah
Michael ,   HK   (03.26.12)
Neturei Karta are nuts!
5. Nour no 2.
AL QUDS ALYAHUDI   (03.26.12)
Nour al Aswad, you will never have one state or two or three states. Islam have nothing to do with Israel. Your ancestors came to Israel from neighbouring countries to find work. Dont waste your breath, Arabs will never get one inch of our land. Get lost to your homeland where your ancestors came from.
6. Ban Naturei Karta from Israel
Ralph ,   Caesarea   (03.26.12)
7. You should use your head a little first, Nour
Serge ,   Montreal, Canada   (03.26.12)
Really? You think a big hate-fest organized by an Islamist organization is the same thing as the Arab revolutions? This is exactly the same kind of thing that was organized 10 years ago and 20 years ago and will be organized in another 10 years until Arabs become embarrassed at how their television and newspapers are vehicles of racist hate speech.
8. Why is Neturei Karta in Israel?
Susya Bar Dror ,   Israel   (03.26.12)
They live under the protection of Israel and its authorities, protected by the IDF, in our capital Jerusalem, with access to the Kotel, liberated by the IDF. Fed by Israelis, kept alive with Israeli health services. But they spit on Israel and throw stones at us.
9. Overwhelming
Jean-Pierre ,   Austria   (03.26.12)
The Call for Free Palestine or Al-Aqsa is just a codename of calling for the End of Jewish RIghts and Denial of their Heritage. This calls for the world to rise up against the Jews, The world does not care about this land, and never will, they only care about the fact that Jews are Alive and are Well and are living in their Heritage Homeland of their Forefathers, the world will do evil beyond my immaginations.. it breaks my heart, this week will be a week of sorrow for me, I yearn that all Jews to be stronger, better, and faster, and i yearn for your G-d to come and protect you. do not be against your Heritage, value for what G-d has given you. Therefore I would say outlaw Al-Aqsa and all other things, for they are nothing but built to be against you.
10. #5 Ottoman/Mandate census data begs to differ!
Nour ,   One-State Palestine   (03.26.12)
Listen up, repeating a lie a thousand times doesn't make it the truth. The truth is, 95% of "Israelis" today hail from foreign lands, and the vast majority of people here PRIOR to 1948 and certainly PRIOR to 1900 are the indigenous Arab population which thrived here for at least 2,000 years. Not to mention Christians/Muslims who are themselves the descendants of converted Jews. Nice try though. Why don't you pack up and go back - to you know where? I have nowhere to go back to. On the other hand, you know you do. Statistically, you are most likely to have a second citizenship. Fall-back plan for you in the event you reject the One Democratic State principal.
11. By the way, I am not Jewish
Israel David Weiss ,   Meah Shearim   (03.26.12)
my mother was the 1st girl in a house of pleasure in Vienna. My father was a german nazi officer. Therefore I fit for the sect of NK.
12. to #10 actually there is ashkenazy synagoug
ghostq   (03.26.12)
from the 16th century in Jerusalem called the Hurva. as for convertion you never bother to find out what it means in Judahism, cause it isn't like in Islam. sadly arabs thinks what they do is what everyone else do. arabs got no democracy, in the pali area there r elections but Abu Mazen still in the lead??? I reckon it is special democracy.
13. #10 Which foreign lands do you speak of?
Softwalker ,   Canada   (03.26.12)
I just love to see how you cover your Jew-hatred with pseudo statistics and "foreign lands" twaddle. The majority of Israelis today are descendants of Jews from Arab lands, all of whom were stripped of their property and citizenship and expelled for the crime of being Jewish. Those "foreign lands" would therefore be the same ones from which your parents immigrated -- during the 20th century -- in search of economic prosperity brought about by the Jews of British Mandate Palestine. In fact, when people spoke of Palestinians in the 1940s, they were referring to Jews. We can see EXACTLY how Palestinians respect democracy. First, get yourself elected. Next, throw your political opponents off the rooftops. Then cancel all future elections. And of course, your one-state democratic Palestine will be Judenrein -- just ask Mr. Abbas.
14. Take STING out=REMOVAL hostile MAGNET buildings Temple Mount
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (03.26.12)
15. Israel haters who PRETEND to be Jews
zionist forever   (03.26.12)
I remember seeling on BBC news during Iraq war protests NK people at a protest on a Saturday carrying banners and throwing their shoes just like the Muslims. How do religious men justify spending their Saturday mornings carrying banners ( in breach of Shabbat ) on a Saturday morning rather than going to pray? On both the memorial days for fallen soldiers and Holocaust memorial day these people start dancing and burning flags when the sirens ring for the two minute silence and their officiall ideology is for ALL of Israel to be dismantled and turned over to arab soverignty and they proudly believe in dhimitute rather than equality. There are only about 10,000 member of NK worldwide so do not represent the majority of haredi in or out of Israel but they are disgusting Israel haters who call themselves Jews but do not act like them. Its a shame our politicians don't have the courage to deport these evil people from Israel. They don't believe the country has a right to exist they have no business living in it and should be kicked out, let them move to Hamastan or Iran where they will be amongst or friends.
16. Canaanites & Philistines lived on land before Abraham
christiancanaanite ,   las vegas   (03.26.12)
This is a historical fact.
17. #16 True, but they argue their book is better...
Nour ,   One-State   (03.26.12)
They seam to think they are above everyone else (God's "Chosen People" propaganda). Truth is, their creation myth is no better than that of the African tribe which believes the world was created out of a bird's nest).
18. Playing footsie
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (03.26.12)
It is way past time that Morocco stopped playing footsie with the Zionist entity under the table.
19. #16: a Christian Canaanite from Las Vegas?
Arn ,   Yehud, Israel   (03.26.12)
Hilarious!!! This is one I'll remember.
20. Indigenous North Africans: NON-ARAB SPRING!!
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (03.26.12)
21. #2, #10 nour
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.26.12)
Listen up, repeating a lie a thousand times doesn't make it the truth. Arabs came in the 600’s AD/CE with the Moslem conquest. (Arabs came from Arabia, get it?). The Jews and Berbers (who already lived in the ME) fought them. Arabs insisted they were NOT “Palestinians” until the 1960's, when they needed propaganda to counter Israel. (In 1948, when you said Palestinian, you meant the Jews.) Nice try though.
22. #16 christian, #17 nour
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.26.12)
Yes, Canaanites lived in the ME when the Hebrews settled in the area (well before the Exodus). Not so the Philistines. So does this mean that you are Canaanites? You may as well say you are a Neanderthal, as both do not exist anymore. Saying you are Canaanites is a sure sign you are grasping at straws. “Chosen people” means to spread the 10 Commandments, not to be better than anyone else. Judging from practices in Islam, we haven’t done a very good job. Nour; You speak of a “creation myth”, yet Islam believes in that same “myth”. Careful; your imams are watching.
23. Neither Jerusalem or Palestine are mentioned in the Quran...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (03.26.12)
so why waste your time on it? Allah doesn't.
24. I can´t understand that either
Ben ,   Sweden   (03.26.12)
25. Weiss logic ???
Ezra ,   Sandiego california   (03.26.12)
He completely glosses over the fact that Arabs were killing Jews in mass during ww2. That Jews fled in mass to the newly created state of Israel because there were kicked out of their Arab lands. I agree Israel needs to cling to HaShem, but Weiss logic clings to Arab taskmasters.
26. we jews must stay in our countries.
jushua ,   Casablanca   (03.26.12)
we jews must stay in our countries. ten thousands moroccan jews had fled to palestine. howmany russians moved there! the aborigins of palestine had to flee their lans. their mistake is thatsome jews believe that there istheir homeland. no home land for religion. jewish, christian, muslm, budhist....
27. 16
zionist forever   (03.26.12)
In the Las Vegas facade Canaanites & Philistines lived on the land before Abraham but in the way things happened in the real word was not quite the same. True there were Canaanites before the Jews defeated them and drove them out and today the Canaanites are a long extinct tribe so they really don't matter anymore do they? The Philistines were not even native to this land their native lands were near around the Greece sort of area. Again though the Philistines today are long gone. The arabs who call themselves Palestinians are Arabs and all arabs have their roots in the Arabian Peninsula. The vast majority hadn't lived in the area much more than around 200 years, the majority of the arabs whom the arabs who call themselves were decsended from came from other parts of the region following the zionists who wanted to hire arabs to help build their settlements and these arabs created villages of their own. Before 1948 the arabs who were living here didn't even define themselves as palestiinians they called themselves arabs because there were no nation states as we know them today in the Middle East before WW1 and it was with the break up of the Turkish Empire when the British & French divided up the region between them and were eventually responsible for the creation of all the modern countries. Arab version of history rewritten to suit their current political cause. The palestinians are not descended from Philistines or Canaanites and they have not been living here for thousands of years.
28. 17 NOUR
tiki ,   belgium   (03.26.12)
Nour, I was worried already. No 'clever remark on the Muslim guide "a gift for married couples", where they teach Muslim man how to beat the hell out of their wives.
29. #13
Harold ,   USA   (03.26.12)
#10 is right. There were just few thousand Jews in Palestine before 1948 Theodor Herzl's plan is that all Jews of the world immigrate to Palestine and that's what happened after the creation of Israel in 1948. Those Jews who immigrated from Arab countries are the real Jews and those who immigrated from Europe, the Soviet Union, Latin America and the United States are not pure Jews and 33 percent of the Soviet immigrants are 100 percent not Jews as per a Soviet Jews I met in New York. Moreover millions of Jews refused to immigrate to Israel because they are wealthy and are happy where they are.
30. rabats demonstration
SOFYA AISSATI ,   Rabat,Morocco   (03.26.12)
I would vey much like to remind our friends in Israel that the islamists that demonstrated in Rabat do not represent the "thinking" of nowadays Morocco.We have thousands upon thousands of university students who cannot openly admit their admiration for what you have created in your new state previously called Palestine.It is very much the same as beiing gay here and not beiing able to admit it.Nevertheless we are well aware that Moroccan Jews who have emigrated to your new country are the ones who have secretly (via Athens,Istanbul) helped to cure hundreds of Moroccan moslim kids from Nador,Tetouan,Oujda,el Hoceima since 2002 in your hospitals for ailments that could not be treated here.The Amazigh people will forever feel gratitude towards you for those kind gestures.One day we will burn the flags of Hizbullah and Hamas here for their treacherous alliance whith shiite Iran.As for the islamists here we will not forget their bombings in Casa and Marrakech either.Everything in due time,insh'ALLAH.
