1. Shameful attempt to humanize the inhuman
Carl ,   USA   (04.11.12)
"Photographs portraying Hamas's military activity against Israel are noticeably absent from the exhibition." Therefore the scenes of destruction or Palestinian suffering become entirely the fault of that wicked Israeli nation, to most observers already brainwashed by the same techniques in the press. And this coming only weeks after a Muslim terrorist massacre in France. How about showing photos of children blown apart on school buses in Sderot by Hamas rockets, or kids running in terror for a bomb shelter? How about photos of carnage in a pizzeria or a family slain in their beds by these same Hamas monsters? No, Israel does not act in a vaccum out of callousness as they are usually portrayed.
2. 'exhibition'
Sam M ,   UK   (04.11.12)
'Izz ad Din-al Qassam Brigades guard the Israeli border' Against what? Jewish terrorists sneaking across the border to kidnap gazans or perhaps preventing Jewish aslyum seekers moving to a land famed for it's human rights! Pathetic propoganda! Only in europe would this kind of trash merit an exhibition!
3. Frédéric Sautereau's views on Hamas
Spencer ,   Israel   (04.11.12)
It's not difficult to understand or explain Hamas's ideology. They are a terrorist organisation bent on destroying Israel, and thereafter, converting the whole world to Islam and those that refuse must be killed..
4. Izz ad Din-al Qassam Brigades guard Israeli border?!? WTF!!!
tf ,   herzliya il   (04.11.12)
Kind of like saying a pedophile watching a school yard is there to 'guard' the kids.
5. Hamas paid apologlst
Ben Eli ,   USA   (04.11.12)
Nothing more than a filthy portrayal of a murderous organization whose attempts at good PR only serve to further their ideological goal of elimination of Israel and all Jews and Christians in the Holy Land. He should be boycotted.
6. Oh BOO HOO 4 U gooozans. How many of your kids were suicide
Moshe ,   Usa   (04.11.12)
martyrs today. And did they get their virgins. Oh Boo Hoo 4 U
7. Missing Pictures
ACortez ,   Anaheim, CA, USA   (04.11.12)
Where are the pictures of hamas members firing weapons from under the skirts of their women? How about the pictures of bombs being strapped to their infants? Should anybody be shocked that a frenchman would be involved. They are big fans of anti-semitism, have yellow spines and apparently already surrendered to the arabs living amongst them. Jews should leave all of europe before they get trapped in another holocaust.
8. too many european journalists are doing this in Gaza
Gaza Israel   (04.11.12)
9. it must be difficult
pierre ,   fr   (04.11.12)
for Israelis who run the biggest open air prison in the world and shooting gallery for its brave soldiers to see photos of folks trying to survive.
10. #9
EZ   (04.11.12)
Border with Egypt is open. There is a blockade on certain materials since Gazans have a strange obsession with turning all spare parts and metal into explosive projectiles they can launch at Israel. But you bring up a great point. These photos make it clear that Gaza is far from a "prison".
11. Gaza ghetto, Warsaw ghetto, examples of ethnic cleansing
Steven Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.11.12)
12. "Izz ad Din-al Qassam" brigades
EZ   (04.11.12)
Izz ad Din-al Qassam was a Syrian Arab (that's right SYRIAN) who was partially responsible for 1929 massacre of Jewish civilians. So the Palestinian Hamas choose a Syrian for their namesake. Kind of tosses that whole "indigenous people" story out. The whole conflict is due to Arab Muslim dominance trying to assert itself over Jewish self-determination, and, thankfully, failing.
13. #11 You know Steve...
Avi Ohana ,   Ramat Gan   (04.11.12)
It must be nice to live in Never Land where one need not think critically or have any functioning moral compass to live as a responsible human being. I'll have to come visit you sometime when I need a break from reality. The Warsaw Ghetto wasn't ethnic cleansing, it was genocide. You know? The wiping out of an entire people? The only people ethnically cleansed from Gaza in recent history were 10,000 Jews who were forced out in a futile attempt at making "peace" with people who don't view us as deserving of life for the simple crime of being Jews.
14. #9 and #11
Edwin ,   Canada   (04.11.12)
Why would you guys make such comments when they are so demonstratively wrong? The only explanation is, I believe, you do it for ulterior motives. Believe me, you will find that such behavior is not free of consequences.
15. Humans who hate......
DOV ,   USA   (04.11.12)
16. Gaza photo exhibition
Antonie Bakhuijsen ,   London, Amsterdam UK   (04.11.12)
J'accuse (Emil Zola) so soon forgotten, typical French
17. Pierre mon meck #9
David Israel ,   New York, USA   (04.11.12)
What kind of an open air prison that the prisoners can launch hundreds of rockets at a given time to Israel targeting civilians at any given time? As you can see in the pictures the men are very well armed. How do these arms get in if Gaza is an open air prison?
18. France an islamic country
Arik A ,   Hadera Israel   (04.11.12)
so no surprise , pierre will be called mohamed soon.and they deserve it! They are disgusting after Toulouse...but that's the french, to hate the Jews they are champs! (for unemployment and number of muslims too). Boycott the frunch!
19. Censorship again, 2nd try
Gabor Fränkl ,   Budapest, Hungary   (04.11.12)
My original comment was a short sentence: "The French Leni Riefenstahl". That's all.
20. PAST,YESTERDAY,EXIST NO MORE
sick mind ,   from mental hospital   (04.11.12)
21. Something is missing
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (04.11.12)
I know, it's the Human Wall Shield that Hamas hides behind
22. #11 Steve Benassi
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (04.11.12)
To entirely different Ghetto's, no comparison whatever The Warsaw Ghetto was built by the Nazi's The one in Hamas, you have to thank your brothers for constructing it, to hide behind while they were firing rockets into Israel You had the key to the one in Gaza, you only had to stop shooting at Israel
23. Hamas photos
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (04.11.12)
Photographer Sautereau shows nothing but the unvarnished truth. Makes the Zionists and their sympathizers squirm a bit, doesn't it? I wish we could have an exhibit like that here in the USA. I would gladly pay to see it for myself and my friends.
24. So what?
OJ ,   Canada   (04.11.12)
Is this against the law in France? Dear "Israeli's", if you don't like the pictures, just don't look. Then you won't get so worked up about an artist doing his job. By the way, humans do not label other humans as animals, animals do.
25. Let's face it, Gazan Arabs don't deserve much better.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (04.12.12)

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (04.12.12)
I bet you would pay. A fool and his money are soon parted.
27. graczek #23
David Israel ,   New York, USA   (04.12.12)
Around Maryland there are more than enough KKK members with tattoos of hatred tattooed all over their body. To see the picture of hatred, bigotry and Antisemitism you don't need Photographer Sautereau.
28. Why isn't Israel proud of their work?
Edithann ,   USA   (04.12.12)
They don't seem to appreciate the truth or the reality of their handy work on slow genocide..and they don't want others to see it either...WHY? What's the problemo guys...you did it..you continually do it...and you're not proud of it...Have I missed somthing? TATA
29. #28 Just because you're proud...
(04.12.12)
30. (Photo: Frédéric Sautereau)
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (04.12.12)
Looks like he's been plied with Tramadol, courtesy of Haniyeh. I'd like to see his snaps of Fatah members being thrown off Gaza roofs by Hamas thugs and published by world media. Then he can call himself a 'photo journalist.
