1. Jewish State
Norman ,   Atlit   (05.01.14)
Israel is a Jewish state and Jerusalem Is the capital of the Jewish state. I Immigrated here 45 years ago because I am Jewish.The quicker the Jews admit their Jewishness the quicker our Problems will vanish. Be Jewish.Bravo Bibi. Norman Atlit
2. herzog
marv   (05.01.14)
herzog's father is rolling over in his grave at his son who boasted that abbas could be trusted. This ignoramus invites the destruction of israel by his weakness. Same goes for gal on and livni.
3. And the comedy continues
David ,   On this planet   (05.01.14)
Everyone wants for it to be a Jewish state but not exactly.A democracy with a Jewish flair devided land and shared buy enemies and anyone who claims historical roots.and claims.And they called this Zionism

DavidR ,   USA   (05.01.14)

tom ,   tel aviv   (05.01.14)
people to listen to, but hey, knock yourselves out....
9. Tzipi was infected in the "post-Zionism" illness
Don't elect her   (05.01.14)
Its probably Tzipi Livni's last term in the Knesset, and rightly so. She has proven to be a post-Zionist who forgot why the State of Israel was established. The State of Israel will always be the Jewish state, and its time to fix it in Israel's constitution.
10. If Israel is not a Jewish State, then what is it?!
CJK   (05.01.14)
livni is a confused, very fearful person who allows herself to be bullied by foreign interests. israel's decration of independence makes it crystal clear that the founders declared the indipendence of a jewish state. anyone who denies the fact that israel is a jewish state, also denies jewish historical, religious, spiritual and political ties to the land of israel. anyone who denies the fact that israel is a jewish state denies its very essence and reason for existence. such people adopt the narrative of the arabs and muslims who precisely deny jewish historical ties to the land of israel, including the existence of the jewish temples.
11. Israel needs more M.K.s of Bennett's quality..
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.01.14)
Compare Naftalie Bennett to leftist M.K.s. Bennett has achieved extraordinary success as a high tech entrepreneur and as a politician. Having Bennett in the Knesset is having a strong patriot with the proven world sense of a Bill Gates or Warren Buffet. On the other hand, Bennet's leftist opponents (Livni, Herzog etc.) are unaccomplished bureaucrats who've never succeeded at anything. They bring Israel nothing but disaster. Israel is a brilliant state which needs and deserves many more M.K.s of Bennett's quality.
12. AND THE WINNERS ARE:..........................
Israeli 2   (05.01.14)
Marv @ #2 and David R. @ #5
13. Abbas is clear he will never make peace
Mordechai   (05.02.14)
Abbas has made it clear he will never make peace as long as Israel exists. The demographic trends are in Israels favor so there is no reason to assume Israel will lose its Jewish majority with Judea and Samaria. That risk ended with the withdrawal from Gaza. Most of the Gulf Arab states have non Arab/Non Muslim majorities. The world has no problem with the government remaining in Arab Muslim hands in any of those countries. Perhaps the Israeli left should stop promoting immigration of non Jews from Africa and Russia if they are so concerned about democraphy however.
14. this bill is designed to save the country from the liberals
zionist forever   (05.02.14)
The post zionism liberals who like to consider themselves progressive looking are just uncomfortable with the idea of a JEWISH state, all sounds very apartheid an non politically correct so they want religion & state to make complete break. They want a modern politically correct, peace loving country that doesn't favour any group. The liberal left like Herzog, Livni and that mad woman Zehavia Gal-On all want to see an end to the Jewish state concept but they have been held back by their bigger priority which is the peace process. Once they create a palestinians state we can be 100% certain the next battleground will be the Jewish state idea itself with the arab world, the Israeli arabs and the liberals demanding the world put pressure on Israel to drop this Jewish state identity create a kinder more PC and welcoming Israel. The only way to protect the country from the reformers is to enshrine the Jewish state idea into Basic Law before these liberal ideas spread.
15. #9 not infected
(05.02.14)
Livni never knew anything about Israel. Livni's heroic daddy and mommy got her a job as a Likud MK because they were worried for the future of their talentless daughter. Sharon bribed her to leave Likud and join Kadima, a bribe she gladly accepted. After the "achievements" of propping up two hyper-corrupt PMs and engineering Israel's defeat in the Second Lebanon War she had a choice: fade into oblivion, or work for the State Departments as Obama's representative in the Israel government.
