1. ARAB DEMOCRACY IN ACTION
stude ham   (03.05.13)
idiot western eurabians... they think the arabs will convert their lynch mobs into 'democratic' societies.
2. Not a very nice way of treating the people who
A ,   Belgium   (03.05.13)
love you the most. Maybe they can send Galloway next time to be disgraced by the future of "palestine".
3. mr fean Now You Can Go Back Usher
(03.05.13)

hipocrates ,   earth   (03.05.13)
barbarians
5. And the BBC News website...
Maurice ,   Montrol   (03.05.13)
...does not even mention this! Not surprising...
6. SIR whatch ma call it
David ,   On this planet   (03.05.13)
On his way back to England will find a way to blame the Israelis for the warm welcome he got from his friends in Ramallah
7. He wouldn't get a much better hearing
Get Real ,   UK   (03.05.13)
either from Palestinians if he tried to lecture at UK Universities.
8. Now UK Amb knows what its like for Israel Amb at UK Univ
Alan ,   SA   (03.05.13)
Bir Zeit Arab Students just as fierce as UK Arab (reinforced by UK Gents)Students
9. When Ynet publish such important vids
(03.05.13)
in this form, it is not possible to spread it in other global sites which deals with this conflict... Why don't you allow to download such vids and distribute them. The Arab news sites NEVER do this....!!!!!
10. Whgen will the Brits learn?
Spencer ,   Israel   (03.05.13)
Now the Brits know who their friends are. Instead of bending over backwards to fiss the backsides of those who support terror, perhaps the Brtis should see the truth once and for all and know exactly who is responsible for ALL the violence in the ME.....the arabs.
11. Ingratitude
Miche Norman ,   Hod Hasharon   (03.05.13)
After the British had done everything possible in clear contravention of their mandate to stop Jews immigrating,, even setting up its own concentration camps, while turning a blind eye to massive Arab immigration which accounted for over 50% of the Arab population by 1948, after Britain turned over every military instillation in the Country to the Arabs, abstained in the vote, was the driving force behind an arms embargo while arming and officering two of the invading Arab armies, this is just ingratitude. The depths to which Britain sank in its support of the Arab Cause can be put in a nutshell, less than 4 years after the holocaust the RAF was flyingfood in to feed Germans in Berlin and its fighter planes were flying in support of the Arab armies trying to destroy Israel at birth.
12. #6 David A "Whatch A Ma Call It"
(03.05.13)
Is a candy bar! Please don't Insult This Sweet Treat!
13. well...
k   (03.05.13)
"Britain's deep commitment to the creation of a Palestinian state"...perhaps he will thus understand what a "Palestinian state" would mean...
14. #5 Yes it is, and it is also on the mainstream UK media but
JR Ewing.   (03.05.13)
this isnt news.
15. Islamic Tolerance
Dan ,   Florida - Tel Aviv   (03.05.13)
This video is PRECISELY why the Palestinians do not deserve a state and should return to their homeland of Jordan or the enlightened Islamic seaside rule in Gaza where their protests may get further refined.
16. They do not even give the man a chance to speak
Arnold ,   Canada   (03.05.13)
At least they should have given him a chance to speak to listen to what he had to say. If then they did not like his speech they could always have booed and walked out. They are working on their own BDS "in house" on themselves.
17. But similar protests and demonstrations
Robert Haymond ,   Tekoa, Israel   (03.05.13)
take place on campuses in the USA when Israeli diplomats and speakers, usually Israeli, try to gain the podium and fail. It's not only Arabs at fault here. Perhaps it's a habit entrenched in leftist behaviour.
18. UK wake up
Ilana   (03.05.13)
UK and world: Wake up and smell the cof... well the odor of hatred and violence
19. HILARIOUS
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (03.05.13)
Cry me a river.....This arrogant brit got what he and Britain richly deserve. Perhaps they now have some inking / idea of how israelis feel .
20. No!
Abby ,   Palestine   (03.05.13)
Palestine belongs to the Palestinians, why would we allow him to enter our college and give a damn speech? He is being a hypocrite and we don't need to listen to propaganda and lies a,
21. 19, CAPTAIN OBVIOUS is always right
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (03.05.13)
the brits, however, will never learn from their mistakes.
22. And the arobs call for the end to british monarchy too !
Moshe ,   Usa   (03.05.13)
I guess the arobs just want to take over everywhere. moooslum uber alles ?
23. Britain's creation of Jordan was worst crime of all.
BUTSeriousy ,   Sydney   (03.05.13)
The corruption of the Balfour Mandate and the White Paper was the substantial cause of the Holocaust. Britain does it again with the transfer of the name Palestinian from Jews to Muslims.
24. violence produces results
tom ,   toronto, canada   (03.05.13)
instead of denouncing the assault on their consul's right to freedom of speech, the brits have chosen to make grovelling noises, proving yet again the effectiveness of arab intimidation and violence. "an appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile, hoping to be eaten last." - winston churchill.
25. The EU lets them drown in the Mediterranean Sea
Yael Schlichting ,   currently Munich   (03.05.13)
26. #20 Abby,A subtle lie.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (03.05.13)
The people that Abby calls Palestinians are named after the place where they currently are.Palestine is not named after them. Who Palestinians actually are is an open question.Arabs have no real reason to believe that they have exclusive title to the name.It's racist propaganda,pure and simple. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
27. If this is what they think of their close friends, think of
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.05.13)
that they think of those who refuse to appease their deadly aggression.....
28. Even if they succeeded and lynched him
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (03.05.13)
The BBC wouldn't say a word until they could figure out a way to blame it on the JOOOOOSSSSS!
29. A Kaffir is one who loves lies.
BUTSeriously ,   Sydney   (03.05.13)
Muslims are not Palestinians or Zionists. The name Palestine was applied by Rome to Judea - not any Islamic or Arab land.
30. #20 Yes, "palestine" belongs to the "palestinians"
A ,   Belgium   (03.05.13)
So you don't need British lecturers giving you "a damn speech"! Wow, how heroic of you! What if Great Britain would decide to withhold the `£80 MILLION of annual handouts it gives to the illegal PA? But for that you LOVE Britain, right? Now let's talk about hypocrites.
