5. UN: Appoint Israel as Top Security Council Voter.
BUTSeriously ,   Sydney   (12.13.13)
Israel is a 4,000 year nation with knowledge from all nations. Why have 4 of 5 SC voters as Christian and 60 Islamic Gen Council voters - this leads to great corruption.
6. Israel, you make my heart proud :-)
Beary White ,   Norway   (12.13.13)
7. No surprise there because
Rich ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.13.13)
the Cern Council in Geneva as well as the Nobel awards are controlled by the Jewish banking elite.
8. CERN $50M annual membership cost too much for Turkey (TEAK)
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (12.13.13)
...withdrew their application in 2012.
9. it's only logical
shloime ,   toronto, canada   (12.13.13)
israel has the highest number of academics per capita in the world so this is only logical, and in the interests of cern and european science. and it is only a matter of time before the arab anti-israel campaign will try to vilify israel and screw this up.
10. To #3: The EuroChristians
joyce fraser ,   USA   (12.13.13)
organised UnHoly Crusades for the purpose of slaughtering both Jewish and Muslim residents in Israel and other Mideast countries. Later, they permitted centuries of mass-murder of the Jewish minority in their own Euro countries. Then the Europeans wanted the oil, so they courted the Arabs. Now, after some thousand years of causing hell to the world, and as Europe is on the decline, these unconscionable EuroBarbarians want Israel to participate ... towards improving something for Europe. DOES EUROPE DESERVE HELP FROM ITS FORMER VICTIMS? The problems and stench that the Brits alone created by artificially carving the world map for their self-purposes, are hardly temporary. Nations of the Mideast should cooperate with Mideast Nations, and Europe should stay where it is.
11. Great news
REK ,   Virginia, US   (12.13.13)
Thank G. the 20 members do not vote like the UN.
12. thank you Fad. you are a true friend.
(12.13.13)
You are unlike so many phonies in the Egyptian revolution opposing Muslim Brotherhood/Salafis but consider Israel an enemy. The test for a true democrat in the Middle East is a person who accepts Israel unconditionally regardless of any current or past conflicts. Until the majority of people in the Middle East become like you there is no chance for either democracy or Peace in the region. You are a true friend and more importantly a true human being.
13. As a born cynic I'd say they need "Yiddishe kopf"!
tom ,   tel aviv   (12.13.13)
14. Congratulations Israel!
Zyx ,   USA   (12.13.13)
15. @ 8 - too much? depends on your priorities
Israella   (12.13.13)
16. Excuse me for raining on your moods but
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (12.13.13)
Israel has been contributing to CERN's research and development for at least 20 years already.. And only now we are taken in as a member ? I wouldn't be surprised to learn that a large part of the inventors and scientists working in CERN, come from the Technion.
17. # 10 re; An Egyptian man congratulates Israel as the best
BUILD BABY BUILD ,   United States   (12.13.13)
nation on earth and sends his best wishes and your tirade seems highly inappropriate. While I don't argue with what you say, you neglected to give Protestant Christians their separate credit by not defining Catholic Crusades as the 'Christian' culprit. The two are not even close to being similar. Example, the Arab Muslims traded African slaves via the African tribal Chiefs and it was the American Protestant's that fought a civil war costing 600,000 American lives to end that slavery. Also, it was our premise in building our nation that we would not be a 'colony' of the Brits, that's why our forefathers left Britain, (and more European nations as well) and why we also fought the "Revolutionary War" and, thank G-d won our independence. Yes, Middle East nations should cooperate with each other but, so, far, that hasn't worked out very well, has it?maybe when Muslims end murdering Muslims....? KEEP BUILDING !!!!

Philip   (12.13.13)
And were do you think your average fellow american ancestors were at the time of the crusades? They weren't cruisin' the Hudson river, let me assure you. How would you envision Israƫli cooperation with the surrounding Arab world, presently? Just curious.
22. #16. They do...
Beary White ,   Norway   (12.14.13)
..my teacher, coming from CERN, teaching in math, chem and phys, told me so.
