Sarah, Sarah, we have enough Arabs polluting our wonderful country!! wow what a mouthful,suggestion, if you don"t like it here, please return to the states and be as mean and spiteful as you like there,that way we can live in peace in our wonderful country,without having to read threats about blowing up the world just because you are unhappy here, so have a good trip back.

You are quite delusional. Do I need to recount to you the seven decades of terror visited upon Israel -- and Jews everywhere -- by the ersatz "Palestinians?" What depraved family raised you that the words "Never Again" mean absolutely nothing to you? Perhaps you should move to Ramallah or Gaza City where you can doubtless live in peace and eternal happiness with your "friends." You don't seem to be too well-grounded in reality to begin with. The Samson Option is quite real. Jews are NEVER AGAIN going to be without our country. Should that prove unsustainable, we are not going to go alone. That's just a fact.

There are also a real world. This is your life. I guarantee that there will be and hard times, but don't cry. Everybody's afraid of something. Find time for your family, meet friends, do not stay at your computer for a long. After all, tomorrow is another (good) day. Save youself in everyway a person can be saved. First change your nickname

#32, Sarah, Sarah,perhaps being delusional for wanting peace is too much for you ,but you seem to forget that it was'nt the Palestines who cause the Holocaust,it was the Europeans that during hundreds of years cause the Jewish suffering, that is why in this day and age, we want peace not war, is this too much to asks for, I refuse to become a bitter person that would go to the extreme by cheerfully blowing up the world just to make a point, Ialso have lost love ones in war, but i still want peace ,for you ,me and the world.

Elsie is from Gush Halav, I assume an Israeli Arab. She is a good citizen and her place is in Israel. Remember, most Arabs (whether living in Israel or outside) are victims of primitive violent regimes as much or more than we are. Just like us, they are victims of big-power machinations and local corrupt leaders. Like most Israeli Arabs, Elsie is not the enemy. She is one facet of the real Israel. Do not drive her away by nasty and thoughtless comments.

Sarah u r wonderful, I admire every talk back u post, please keep on

do your best and let evry one to judge you

not alone iam travelling to evry where through the air

Freedom of Speech Stupid. To write or speek against Christians, Jews, Muslims and other religions is freedom of speech.

no no ..... as god says -till the end of the time there woud be catastrofic events on bad people or hear their home ... iam near israil iam a good one so no strike will be on head of israil this is the sigh of relief

..inciting people to hatred, lies, racism and genocide, land theft, imperialism and the destruction of an entire country because it happens to belong to a certain ethnic group of people - meaning the Jews. Hating people, demonizing people, instigating hateful and violent acts and racist comments and supporting violence against Israel and/or supporting the idea of erasing Israel from the map by denying or stealing Israel's history is not freedom of speech - it is a hate crime.

You always post rants. Why complain when you think others are doing the same? Or are you jealous that they make sense when you never do?

Why not name an Arab country that allows more freedom of speech than Israel Your right to Freedom of Speech, ends at the tiip of nose

Guenter Grass once wore a death's mask on his Waffen SS headgear. No longer does he wear a death mask, pinned to a Nazi uniform headdress, but from the tone of his so called poem and his machinations in defending himself against his detractors, he still appears to be wearing the death mask pinned to his heart and soul.

Grass can smooze with the likes of Barack Obama, who got the award for doing nothing: Arafat, now thankfully dead, for being a terrorist: Al Gore for pimping his Global Warming charade, Me thinks these "honors" are now worthless.

It applies to us to Moron. We too have the right to be critical of people - don't like it TFB. We have the right to tell racists that they are racist and that they have no rights whatsoever in our country. Herr Grass is also banned from travel to the US - American law forbids Nazis from entry.

Israel erred in overeacing to Grass is the op-ed. After all, he only wants Israel destroyed and is blaming it for the world's problems, (and the West). Funny, but Israel never threatened to destroy Iran in 9 minutes or 6 days...and its people. All they say is: we dont trust Iran with a nuke..it wants to kill all of us. so we might take out their sites (not bomb their cities). I mean, a former WAffen SS touring Israel and giving speeches, come on! The Arab/Muslm world is always denying individuals entry..for this reason or that. The US has restrictions on who can get a passport..and people are on watch lists. Brings to mind Daniel Barenboim..who is not liked in Israel playing Wagner, a rabid anti-Semite whose operas were used as backdrops for the guy Grass worked for. But for no other reason, had he been permitted, I would have arrested and prosecuted him for belonging to a criminal enterprise.(not the regular German army), whose activities ended prematurely the lives of tens of millions of innocent people, who NEVER HURT GERMANY..including millions of children and infants. They had the game, the SS did. They took babies and stretched them til dath..and poured gasoline on hapless adults..watching them burn to death. These were the SS Volk. No, Israel finally showed some spunk. It is learning albeit slowly.

I looked under Wikipedia to get the low down on this dirt bag, excuse for a leftist. He, like the NAZIs, which he aided during WW2 by making the MISTAKE of thinking that SS Division was just the ordinary SS (found out it was the Waffan SS guys). As far I know, he remained during the war, until captured. His father was of German stock, his mother Polish, both of whose people were violently anti-Semitic as we know. I mean 6m deaths in 4years..that aint chopped liver. Germany lost 7m to murder their Jews 250,000), aided elsewhere by "others" in the 6m. Most of the SS were killed or wounded or missing, ultimately. Thank G-d. They were constantly increased in numbers..and given elite training and schooling ( didn't like Jews BTW). The Einsatzgruppen were SS affiliated. (Killed 1.2m Russian Jews), going from town to town to village...many of these hapless people never made the stats however.( Klaus Barbi was an SS man.) He was an SS member..but fired only artillery? Thats like the KKK member who deep down loved blacks, but aided the lynchings in other ways by providing the noose. The SS were being trained to administer occupied Europe and Russia after victory..AND the US and England. 2 Waffen SS divisions were being formed to link up with Rommel to invade Palestine..and take on Moshe Dayans boys in the north. Never happened. You know the one one about changing stripes or spots. This guy is blatantly a Jew hater through and through, Its in his marrow. No one was forced to be in the SS from my readings. I have suggested he be allowed in Israel, then arrested for belonging to a criminal enterprise..war crimes and genocide. His activities permitted the slaughter of millions of people...who never set foot in Germany. As one former inmate said, "He wore grays, and I wore stripes". They would love him in Syria/Argentina, where he can join his other SS buddies. Israel gets a sub, while Arabia gets 80b in arms....Iran makes 20% uranium for peaceful purposes...Egypt calls for no treaty with Israel, and Turkey is playing the Islamic card. BTW Iran has 10m organized soldiers in its military, alone. Does Israel have the bomb..hopefully they do from where I sit. Justification not needed, after all, the Holocaust never happened according to Ahmad., those bodies were German soldiers, according to the deniers. I mean come on. I have a Brooklyn Bridge to sell you.

Grass (rhymes with ...) reminded us of the villain he was and still is.He got the hate virus from their mother's milk.

I haven't commented this Grass issue yet, because I think he is worth nothing. He was in the SS, a volunteer most fanatic and cruel unit of the Nazis. That says all, he should be happy and thank God every day that he did not get into Russian prison and he should be very silent with this past. I wish he had been caught by the Russians!

After France was liberated, (my uncles fought in Belgium, France and in the Rhineland), the traitors had their heads shaven and marched through Paris. Yet, of 5,000 SS men in Auschwitz, only 900 were ever prosecuted, most of them freed. The SS numered over 500,000with 38 Waffen SS divisions, each a self-contained unit and well trained and schooled. Germany does deny them certain benefits afforded other regular army members (even Germany knows the difference). Every US soldier who recalls Malmady, should be furious at this guy. People were injected with chemicals in the camps to determine vulnerability., besides other experiments. Twins were tested by SS doctors. Like the former German leader, whose army WW2 experiences were revealed, an investigation must be launched about this thug. Why should he get away with belonging to a murder inc group which enabled Germany its goals, to divide the world (New World Order). Would he have fought in the USA had they won? Would he have rounded up Jews and others? (Germany had plans to administer the USA and use local police similar to France AND THE SS). Why is he being allowed to say what he pleases? I have an idea, bring him to the USA. and walk him down Williamsburg, Queens Blvd or Long Island City. Get it. And let him autograph his books and poems.

who pays the piper calls the tune.Lahnstein knows what he has to say in order to stay as a head of the university

what a pompous ridiculous response. if this is a defense of Israel, I wonder what would constitute an attack? cleary this guy despite being at U of Haifa doesn't have a clue about civil liberties, like most politicians for whom the revolving door of the state and academia unfortunately keeps them going in and out of each, making a mockery of universities as something other than an arm of government.
