1. Part of Never Again
Common Sense ,   BH   (02.27.14)
There are tow parts to "Never Again" 1. Israel gov to make sure it never happens again by doing what they do best, intel, security 2. Humans to get out of areas that have problems and not wait and wait, AS hard as it is the other options are harder God bless the jews there and everywhere but god also demands we do what it takes to avoid problems, if possible Jews of Ukraine should try to relocate to Israel
2. It's time to come home
Dima ,   Baltimore, Israel   (02.27.14)
Ukraine is not a country fit for Jews. Come to Israel my brothers.
3. When will they learn
Mark ,   Kenya   (02.27.14)
to fight back. Typical response from Eastern Jews... help us. Well first help yourselves and fight back. If that fails, no doubt Israel will help.
4. "Stalin's Jews" murdered millions of Ukrainians in Holodomor
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (02.27.14)
5. Jews in Ukraine must leave
CJK   (02.27.14)
no jew should live in this cursed country. 80% who survived the shoa had left already and it is time now for others to leave however difficult that might be.
6. They can come to Israel

7. waaa boo hoo we want help
k ,   US   (02.27.14)
what cowards, why don't they fight for themselves? There is a Jewish country in the world and that is the country that EVERYONE should support, all these anti semetic countries should be cleansed of their Jews and all Jews should hope to see their destruction
8. #4
k ,   US   (02.27.14)
it was not millions, however it would be nice if it was in the millions considering the Ukranians and those eastern Europeans are all animals
9. Send Them Suitcases
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (02.27.14)
And tell them it's time to come home to Israel.
10. How about send the harideem there?
Miri ,   Holon   (02.27.14)
Send our Security forces? In other words his royal holiness is expecting Israel to send Israeli soldiers on to foreign turf? Even a two year old would understand how ridiculous that sounds. Unfortunately our security services are to busy dealing with the rioting harideem in Israel. How about drafting in the harideem to take care of their own? Lets face it they are experts in rioting as we have seen here in Israel.
11. Israeli troops on Ukrainian Soil?! That's not good.
all y'all come home ,   now you hear?   (02.27.14)
12. STEVE BENASSI
JB ,   JHB, SA   (02.27.14)
You really are an odious fellow. Are "Stalin's Jews" the same Jews that purge from the Communist ranks and had murdered and who were at all times a small minority of the Party and outnumbered by Ukranian members?? Are you saying all Jews in the Ukraine deserve to be persecuted now because some of the founding members of Bolshevism (eliminated by Stalin) were Jewish? C'mon man ,explain yourself with facts and a process of logic , instead of spewing hate.
13. #4 China support Khmer Rouge and kill.....
Calibi ,   Sydney Aust   (02.27.14)
China support Khmer Rouge and kill 33.35% of her population. Pol Pot speak Chinese and China is his big brother so did he killed 95% of the Cambodian Chinese intellectual and businessman! Why must innocent man pay the penalty of another evil man? (end)
14. Israel is the only hope...........!
Calibi ,   Sydney Aust   (02.27.14)
If I'm a Jew Israel will be my first home and I must accept the fact that the world is evil everywhere. Israel is THE PROMISE LAND and the only chance for Jews in the event of wars in the 21st Century. Is better to fight and die than to be slaughter helplessly. In Israel you will be fighting, survive and thrive well. Your enemies fight because of evil and lust to destroy you but they are scare and nervous fighting you. SURVIVAL in a gift of GOD! The lust to killed and destroy do not have the energy and they are not sharp in IQ intelligence. If Jews survive beyond Babylon........ and the Romans and.......21st Century Jews in Israel will thrive well and be strong! Go home.......Israel The land of your forefathers given by GOD. God bless you all (end)
15. #8, 12, Google "Stalin's Jews"
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (02.27.14)
"In 1934, according to published statistics, 38.5 percent of those holding the most senior posts in the Soviet security apparatuses were of Jewish origin. They too, of course, were gradually eliminated in the next purges. In a fascinating lecture at a Tel Aviv University convention this week, Dr. Halfin described the waves of soviet terror as a "carnival of mass murder," "fantasy of purges", and "essianism of evil." Turns out that Jews too, when they become captivated by messianic ideology, can become great murderers, among the greatest known by modern history" -- Sever Plocker, Ynetnews
16. how about...
Hannah ,   Holon   (02.27.14)
How about sending your children there? It is such a pity if they are so narrow minded and selfish like you. How about to think that we are ONE PEOPLE, doesn't matter if religious or not?
17. Benassi obscures true colors
JB ,   JHB,SA   (02.28.14)
What point are you making??Many of these issues are complex and controversial. But lets assume that a minority of evil (atheist mind you) Jews assisted many evil Communists to do evil things to Ukrainians .How does JUSTIFY random rampant violence against any Jew in Ukraine today?
18. My role models are famous Antisemites Mearsheimer and Walt
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (02.28.14)

J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (02.28.14)
percent ?.given the hatred in your heart,you could have easily qualified as a member in stalin's killing machine.
20. Beware of Russia,Russia has a history
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (02.28.14)

Dudik Fischer ,   NY, USA   (02.28.14)

24. Benassi's role models
JB,JHB ,   JHB,SA   (03.04.14)
Great to know-convert to Judaism then-lets see how you like racial stereotyping and baseless hatred.
25. Benassi admires the authors of "The Israel Lobby"
JB ,   JHB,SA   (03.04.14)
read:To look back on The Israel Lobby’s reception today is to see a remarkable unanimity of rejection, from the New York Times (“mostly wrong … dangerously misleading”) and Foreign Affairs (“written in haste, the book will be repented at leisure”) to The Nation (“serious methodological deficiencies … a mess”). There was also a general recognition that in their insinuations about secret Jewish power, Mearsheimer and Walt—professors at the University of Chicago and Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, respectively—had given a respectable imprimatur to old and sinister anti-Semitic tropes. Michael Gerson, an evangelical Christian adviser to President George W. Bush, wrote in the Washington Post: “Every generation has seen accusations that Jews have dual loyalties, promote war, and secretly control political structures. These academics might not follow their claims all the way to anti-Semitism. But this is how it begins. This is how it always begins.” And Mr Benassi goes on...
26. Ex Soviet Jews are harassed in Israel, too
Gabriel ,   Akron OH   (03.20.14)
In Israel, many ex Soviet Jews are called "rusi" and are often harassed and discriminated against. Some have been beatedn and told to go back to "Russia". Women have been called prostitutes, kids harassed at school. Jews from Morocco who are in the police even beat them up and called them stinking Russians and "Rasputins". Israel is not safe at all. And noSabra girl would marry a Jews from such a country. They might as well just stay in Ukraine and assimilate.
27. No.26, not enough love in the House of Israel.
