1. I am bursting into tears!
Mira ,   Vienna   (04.17.14)
"The Israeli forces treated us with aggression and without mercy. They threatened us and took all of us off the ship." So what? Why should they show any mercy with rogues like you? If you coudl do as you want, you would not show any mercy with us either. Best proof is to hang on with terrorists like Hamas determined to destroy Israel. Shut up, idiot!
2. Civilized societies obey the law

Or else they go to jail. This man's culture lets him think he doess not have to obey the law.

4. "Dear mother"
Ginette Golden ,   Toronto, Canada   (04.17.14)
You just can't fool us with your fake drama stories. If a Jewish reporter entered Lebanon or Syria as you say, he would be shot to death first, then interrogated later. That's the Arab way of doing things. As for this article, it could not be more left oriented if they tried...Why does YNet allow this crap mostly in the wake of the Hebron murderous shooting?
5. OK
Hertzel ,   Tveria   (04.17.14)
He like his brothers so much, move him to Gaza. We will all see him squeeling like a mouse at that point and begging us to let him live in Haifa, I have names for scum like this but not on this "respectable" paper.... He is a spy for Hezbullah.
6. Move him to Gaza he will be happy

7. expel him.Why do arobs deserve rights in Israel.
Moshe ,   Usa   (04.17.14)
They are a 5th column trying to overthrow Israel as a Jewish State. Even irun refers to itself as the islooomic state of irun. Why can't arobs go there ?
8. Oh and one more thing...
Moshino ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (04.17.14)
Regarding the mess the Shin Bet left - mmm... Let's see... A man visits an enemy country (and not just about any country - Hezbollah's playground!) that has hundreds if not thousands of rockets and missiles pointed at Israel. Do they expect security forces to run a search in the house and then tidy up the house or order cleaning services!? Sorry, but this would not happen NOT in Europe, NOT in America and my guess is in Lebanon and Syria they would do much more than just leave a little mess in the bedroom and/or living room... But yes, by all means, keep playing the victim... it seems to work - up to a certain extent, and then reality hits and people realize there is a price to pay for when they wake up feeling "heroic."
9. Cant yet rush to judgement
Tim ,   Brighton   (04.17.14)
Until we are told all the facts Though clearly his history and past actions do raise concerns about his loyalties But reading his journalistic statements you begin to get the distinct impression - Philosophy Graduate besides...one big mixed up kid living in a James Bond fantasy world and completely out of his depth A complete contrast to the hundreds if not thousands of Israeli Arabs trying to formalise Israeli Arab National Service in the name of National Unity and to protect their values, their families, their communities, their country and their way of life
10. journalism doesn't give you a right to break the law
zionist forever   (04.17.14)
Journalists seem to think if they shout and scream free press or journalism then laws do not apply to them and they have a right to do what the hell they like. This guy went to an enemy state without a permit which is illegal, he illegally took part in the cruise to Gaza and he met with Hezbollah people without permission and he may have been recruited. This guy has a long list of breaking the law and belongs in jail and if his family want to be with him so badly let them join him in prison. Traitors belong in jail
11. According to international law
Moshino ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (04.17.14)
you are free to RENOUNCE your citizenship when acquiring a new one if you wish. Also according to international law, one can be arrested and punished severely for breaking the law by visiting an enemy state is a CRIMINAL OFFENSE. The nerve of this woman and her progeny! He should be punished for breaking the law and his mother should be arrested for being a horrible parent. What parent in his/her right mind would encourage his/her child to break the law and commit a criminal offense. By the way, if he did pass any sensitive information to an enemy country, he could see himself in jail for MANY, MANY years to come no matter how much you "keep fighting." With parents like these, who needs enemies!? Oh and by the way, when I was younger than him, I spent a year in Russia visiting friends, learning the language, studying the culture. Every country I went to after that, I would pulled aside and questioned why I was there, what is was doing and Russia was not an enemy country to any European countries or to the US 12 years ago. In the US this guy would not wait in jail for a few days or weeks, he would be waiting in jail for months or maybe years waiting for trial.

15. it's a lie that poverty and oppression beget terror
mary_of_Bethany ,   Singapore   (04.18.14)
" who has a BA's degree in philosophy and political sciences, is considered one of the leading figures in the protest against the Prawer Plan for Bedouin settlement in the Negev."... its just defeat all myths that it's Israeli presence and oppression that generate terrors... this guy has a BA degree, an education that many in Africa or India or cambodia don't have... is educated, financially well, respectable leading figures...(not the famous theory that terrorists are poor refugees with family members killed by IDF.)
