1. When is the world in trouble?
tiki ,   belgium   (03.26.12)
When the masses have nothing better to do than to send 100 000 protesting against ONE Israeli diplomat, because of some fake cause by fake Palestinians, while their 'Muslim brothers in Syria are being killed every day.
2. Just like old times of Morocco: Jew vs a Mob
tf ,   herzliya il   (03.26.12)
A story as old Islam in Morocco. Luckily he had a place to.go. Far too many Jews were never that lucky.
3. Arab Spring, or Jew-hating Islamic Winter?
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (03.26.12)
It's no wonder the Arab world can't move forward. Their hate leaves them "stuck on stupid".
4. So these guys are going tto talk peace if we just sit at the "table"

5. Hypocrites
Haze   (03.26.12)
Arabs are hypocrites. While their governments are licking US officials a..., they try to take revenge on individuals. This is also the case of Gulf countries.
6. jews vs israelis
Bouchra ,   Morocco   (03.26.12)
Moroccans dont' hate jews but they hate the israelis cz they're racist and they're colonizing palestine. they tend to establish a system similar to apartheid in palestine. But the real reason for those who took to the streets this sunday to support qods, was to antagonize the king M6 who's a big supporter of israel.
7. Moderates?
MarcV ,   Miami, FL USA   (03.26.12)
I thought there were "moderate" Arab Muslim countries? Wasn't Morocco supposed to be one?
8. @6: vocabulary
al-kafir al-yahudi ,   usa   (03.26.12)
Israel is not racist, imperialist, genocidal, apartheid, or any other stupid word on your new-speak list. The sooner you people learn this, the sooner the world can be repaired.
9. #6 Moroccan's don't hate the Jews????
GZLives   (03.26.12)
Pleeease ... the cat is now out of the bag. Show me an Islamist and I'll show you a Jew hating Islamic fascist. Even the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem only a few weeks ago said publicly it was the destiny of the Muslims to kill the Jews and then used the Quran to justify his hate. And its this hate that is pushing all of these countries back to war hoping they can kill all the Jews and all that will happen is tens of thousands of Muslims will die once again trying to act out their mindless hate ...
10. Israeli diplomat saved in marocco
Steven   (03.26.12)

11. #6 liar
Arik A ,   Hadera ISRAEL   (03.26.12)
You are full of lies, a Jewish man was murdered in Marocco today, he was living in your racist country. Israel is the best country in the world you are jealous of us!
12. #6 Tell us about the Kings closest advisor, and Jerusalem ..
michael redbourn ,   arad Israel   (03.26.12)
Tell us that he was Jewish .. It looks like Morocco is heading back to the 6th century now. None of this nonsense threatens Israel which is in the 21st century. 6th century Muslims use stones to kill people ;-) "During the march, demonstrators waved Palestinian flags and chanted "The people want to free al-Aqsa". Brainwashed people! There is NOTHING in the Koran about Jerusalem so the marchers don't even know the Koran - sad but true :-( And no nonsense please about Mohammed's horse taking him to a place not called Jerusalem.

solomon ,   bklyn   (03.26.12)
The Jewish area in many cities, including the capital, is next to the King’s palace. This is to show that the Jews are under his protection. They were moved there a few hundred years ago when they felt threatened by what was happening in the ME. Read some history.
15. THE ARABS JUST LEARNT A NEW WORD APARTEID
TRIPP ,   LA PAZ, BOLIVIA   (03.27.12)
THE MOROCCANS ,ALGERIANS,TUNISIANS ETC. JUST DON'T GET IT,THEY ARE STILL SICK TO THEIR STOMACH THAT JEWS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY CAN FIGHT BACK WITH A FIST .THE TIME IS OVER THAT ARAB MOBS CAN RAMPAGE THROUGH JEWISH NEIGHBORHOOD SPILLING JEWISH BLOOD.
16. Jews & Zionists
Husam ,   Tangier, Morocco   (03.27.12)
In Morocco we love Jews and hate Zionists...

solomon ,   bklyn   (03.27.12)
Read some of Morocco's history. You will find it was not all rosy and peachy keen. And it was worst when there was no Israel. Morocco has been comparatively safe for Jews (emphasis on the word 'comparatively') and I respect your people for it. But like most things, it is not black and white, but grey.
18. Jews Vs Israelis
DANIEL DUBNO ,   New York   (03.27.12)
Nice try. Today a Jew in Morocco was killed by a fellow with a hammer. Not an Israeli. You persecuted your Jewish population and those lucky enough to flee with their lives went...many to Israel. Jews and Israelis... they are one and the same... and treated and mistreated the same by the hypocritical Arab world. The Arab world continues to keep the Palestinian refugee problem alive for political ends... Jewish refugees (the lucky ones) were embraced in Israel. Now the brief shining moment of phony Arab democracy is unmasked again as a staging ground for religious extremist and the intolerant. You deserve your self inflicted misery.
19. Zionist-Israeli vs Jews
Moroccan ,   Casablanca, Morocco   (03.28.12)
I hope this last encounter with the Israeli diplomat (probably a former member of the IDF and abuser of Palestinian civilians) shows the Zionists and their apologists that the so-called "Moderate" Morocco will not bow down to the Apartheid state of the Middle East. In fact, the more democratic Morocco become the more hostile it will become towards the apartheid regime, as it should until its ends its occupation. The only true friends of apartheid Israel are dictators and few imperialist western nations. As to any anti-Jewish feeling that may exists in Morocco (which does exist), well we condemn it as much as we condemn the state of Israel. That however we can fix by educating people so they clearly see the difference between the outlaw state of Israel and Jews as a people that shouldn't be associated with this immoral state founded on stolen lands. Morocco needs to enforce a ban against any Zionist who served in the IDF. Period. Zionists need to know that serving the occupation will cost them something.
20. #19 moroccan
solomon ,   bklyn   (03.28.12)
Apartheid?! Where Israeli arabs and Jews go to the same hospitals, see the same doctors? Where arabs vote, are represented in the knesset and sit on the Supreme Court? Even South African blacks have condemned the use of the word apartheid in relation to Israel as it detracts from what they went through in SA; Israel pales (to the extreme) in comparison. You should educate yourself to clearly see what apartheid is. Start by looking in a dictionary. Then read about your compatriot arabs. Your accusation is accurate, but is directed towards your fellow arabs. PS: there can be no stolen land from erzats “Palestinians” that declared themselves a ‘nation’ in the 1960’s as a political ploy to counter Israel (and admitted as such). This, after years insisting they are not “Palestinians” but Syrian arabs, Iraqi arabs, etc. Read some history; then post. Even better; learn how to read.
