68. Indeed, it must be confronted and be described as is:
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (07.23.12)
An amalgamation of classic anti-Semitism; "progressive" anti-Jewish racism; and, 7th century-based Islamism. These three elements, together, make the UNHOLY TRINITY.
69. How can we contact you?

71. Skit to Gaza and Dror Failure
Helena ,   stockhollm, Sweden   (07.23.12)
Göran Rosenberg as well as Dror Failure from Skit to Gaza are self hating Jews hoping to get fame (and money) due to their anti-Israeli activities. Dror Failure is a complete failure in his profession (his music was defined as hazardous for the musicians' hearing capacity and an orchestra in Germany thus refused to perform his "masterpieces"). So, how can Dror Failure support himself? - By cashing on his hate to towards the State of Israel! Believe me, there is plenty of money waiting him...
72. #42 opinionated, immoral, and simple
Steve   (07.23.12)
That is correct, the same way you are willing to be one of the 3 people who "embarrass" themselves on this predominantly pro Israel site with the need to attack Israel.
73. Tobias I'm here in sweden

Alan Bly ,   Somers NY USA   (07.23.12)
You have courage...and class.
75. Beautiful action by Tobias.
j-p vihko ,   Hartola, Finland   (07.23.12)
This was the best piece of news from Sweden in a long time! We have several pro-Israel NGO:s in Finland. Maybe we could cooperate in one way or another... You will remain in our prayers!!!
76. Pathetic !!! ,...

77. This is what bravery is
Justin ,   Canada   (07.23.12)
78. Thank you Sir! You are a great man
Esteban ,   Argentina   (07.23.12)
79. The Brave around the world
RC ,   USA   (07.24.12)
That gathering might look pathetic in size, but then look at a map. Tiny Israel surrounded by much larger Muslim nations which have tried to annihilate it but have been unable to, they and their supporters are the pathetic. I see Tobias and Annika as being truly courageous. If the Muslim nations truly loved the so called Palestinians they would have taken them in and made them citizens of their own countries. They are only used as a political weapon against Israel, and as an excuse to claim Israel as theirs.
80. #6 Foolish Mary
Louis Fried ,   Toronto Canada   (07.24.12)
Only a deluded fool like Mary would try to link this heroic Swede to a murderer like Brevjik.
81. God Bless You Tobias Petersson
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.24.12)
I lost my hope in the Swedish people due to the intense uber hostile political climate against Jews and Israel. But I'm glad to see that there are good, decent, moral, ethical and honest Swedes too that speak the truth and tell it like it is. God Bless you Tobias and your family.
82. #80+46 Open your eyes!
Mary   (07.24.12)
Don't give me names, but ask who and why someone supports the occupation of territories and the suppression of people through the state of Israel led by a right wing coalition = Israelwashing by islamophobic, right-wing, and hawkish Scandinavians.
83. Mary: Even Arab Israelis saying thanks for supporting Israel
טוביאס ,   שוודיה   (07.24.12)
via in emails sent to me via my blog...so stop repeating the lies of ship to Gaza Please Stop making up lies about me me and everyone who supports Israel. We who supports Israel are diverse There are people supporting Israel from many backgrounds as my article shows you! /the Author of this article
84. When Israelwashing doesn't work try Arabwashing!

be active and be a soldier sharing the legal blockade or realy stop these activists . the one can be what he believes
86. To nr 82 Mary - What "Palestinians" are you talking about?
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.24.12)
And what "occupation" are you talking about? Occupation according to International Law means that State A has conquered State B as a result of war. No "Palestinian" state existed in 1967, 1949, 1948, 1947, or 100, 200, 500, 1000, 5000, 10.000 or 100.000 years ago. You use the invented "Palestinian" people as an excuse to hate and destroy Israel. You care nothing for the "Palestinians". 1) Why is "Palestine" a Roman/Latin name? 2) Why is there no letter "p" in Arabic? 3) Nationalism is alien to Arabs who have, for 1400 years, lived as nomads and Beduins in multi-ethnic and multi-racial "Arab" empires whose majority population - locals, subjects, soldiers, mercenaries, scientists, mathematicians, physicians and merchants, were no ethnic Arabs, merely Arab speaking Persians, Kurds, Turks, Jews, Berbers and Africans. Why is that? 4) There is no "Palestine" in the Bible or the Koran. Why? 5) The Bible and the Koran BOTH admit that Israel is the Jewish homeland. How come? 6) Jewish/Israelite history started 2000 B.C.E in Israel - 4000 years ago. Arab history of the original Arabians, started in the 7th century C.E. 1400 years ago, in the southwestern corner of the Arabian peninsula, hundreds of kilometers away from Israel, 2600 years AFTER the start of Jewish civilization. How can Arabs be the "natives" of Israel? 7) Most Arabs arrived in Israel as recently as the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. How is that ancient history and how does that make "Palestinians" the "natives"? 8) When and where exactly did a "Palestinian" state, republic, nation state, kingdom, city state, duchy, principality or empire exist in recorded history, what are the names of kings and dynasties, cities, towns, villages and currency and why is there not a single ancient civilization mentioning anywhere any "Palestinian" state, civilization, nation or people? Our government is democratically elected, enjoys high popularity figures and our country has historical and legal rights to claim Judea, Samaria and Gaza and to expel the Arabs which I hope will happen sooner or later. Israel enjoys much support among the majority of Americans, Canadians, Australians, Indians and Chinese. That's well over 2.5 billion people. Our country's claims to Judea, Samaria and Gaza doesn't make our government more right wing than your country's government when they claim independence and sovereignty in their land. "Palestinians" are as native to Israel as Europeans are to Australia.
87. A Blessing Upon You
Tobias ,   USA   (07.24.12)
"I will bless those who bless you" Genesis 12:3
88. # 82 I love Israel!
Mary   (07.24.12)
However, saying there have never been Palestinians is like closing eyes in a dark room and singing and dreaming that the sun is shining. God Bless you all!
