31. Yair once received a "coveted" award
Arthur ,   SF, CA   (06.18.14)
from Rabbi Meir Kahane, H"D - "swine of the month". Quite a few years passed - but Yair continues to wear his award with pride.
32. #2
(06.18.14)
You, islamists and ultrafascists always have the same chorus "What did she expect? She shouldn't have walked there / dressed like that if she did not want to be raped". The fact is that small Arab children can walk anywhere in Israel, including Judea and Samaria and nothing will happen to them. Your combination of racism (Jews in ghettos, Arabs live free) and blaming the victim is really no different that Oppenheimer's.
33. A successful treatment of sickness as experienced by this
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.18.14)
Author (and quite many others) has not yet been discovered, so there is not much point in "arguing" with his views. It's just like trying to convince a haredi that there's no God. I wish though, that they could find an asylum outside of this country: Gaza or Egypt comes to mind.
34. Yariv Oppenheimer
Tomi Weiss ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
Yariv Oppenheimer is a paid agent. Paid by Anti-Zionist and Anti-Semitic circles of power from outside, in order to harm Israel and the Jewish people. Entire Israel knows this and entire Israel is fed up with his lies.
35. Investigate Pieces Now for treason.
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
Oppenheimer is plain despicable. "Palestinian hopes" are for Israel to be destroyed. Every one of their covenants shout this loud and clear. "Palestinians" respond to the kidnapping of Jewish teens by mass celebrations. "Palestinians" are Israel's mortal foes and must be treated as such. As for Oppenheimer and Pieces Now; they constantly collaborate with Israel's genocidal "Palestinian" foes and should be vigourously investigated for treason.
36.  please now is wrong!
oded ,   usa   (06.18.14)
yarif ,tinofet, when will you stop your dillisional diatribe and realize the arabs don;t want jews in thier midst, and you kapo jews will be led to their ovens first?
37. Shrapnel . . bleeding.
connie mack ,   camden   (06.18.14)
Hello Israel, Israel, comment #2, You wrote ".Man up already take responsibility for your beliefs and actions and hitchhiking! " Since reaching adulthood, I opposed the contention that well dressed, attractively made up women who walk on urban streets after nightfall are partners, initiators, and primarily responsible if they are sexually assaulted. How about you, learned Israel, Israel?
38. . take responsibility for your beliefs
connie mack ,   camden   (06.18.14)
To #2, Israel, Israel Hello Israel, Israel: you wrote: "Man up already take responsibility for your beliefs and actions and hitchhiking!" Since reaching adulthood I have opposed the attitude that well dressed women who make up in order to enhance their appearance are partners, initiators and criminally negligent if they walk after dark in urban neighborhoods. I vehemently disagree with the defense or indictment that they bear responsibility if they are sexually assaulted. Israel, Israel: Do you join the voices which condemn the victims? Respectfully, Connie Mack
39. Yariv Oppenheimer another terrorist apologist
Volvi   (06.18.14)
I am pleased you came out with this perfidious article because it will show all Israel what a piece of work you are. You are an enemy of Israel no less then Hanin Zoabi and you both should pack up and move to Gaza even if you are a jew.
40. Arrest Oppenheimer for treason
Mordechai   (06.18.14)
Its clear like Zoabi he is endorsing the kidnapping of these children and sees it as helping his agenda. He should be arrested for treason and interrogated to see if he knows the boys location. It is likely he is involved in the kidnapping as he is advocating Hamas's position
41. O put a sock in it you blind ignoramus!
fed up Jew ,   Israel   (06.18.14)
42. Trying to sinsterly justify them won't change facts.
Eli ,   London   (06.18.14)
Throughout history we always have a Einstein or someone who wants to be one. In this case you recommend not to extract pressure, it seems operationally necessary in order to free the teenagers. It's time to open your eyes and see reality for what it really is. There is no peace and never will be, so stop wasting time on compromise and return the deterrence to our 1 and ONLY land.
43. Pretty stupid article. "Blame the Jews"
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (06.18.14)
Lefty claptrap - no commonsense.
44. Oppenheimer
michael ,   seattle, WA USA   (06.18.14)
Sadly, this guy continues the pathetic tradition of Jews blaming themselves for the acts of those who want to destroy them. He is basically saying that we Jews bring Palestinian acts of terrorism, murder, missiles and suicide bombings on ourselves, and that it is our fault that they want to kill us. No doubt there were Jews in Europe during the Holocaust that felt the same way. I think they were called Kapos. He thinks that if only Israel would totally withdraw from the West Bank, peace and harmony would reign in the region, because the "Occupation" is the reason the Arabs hate us. This is demonstrably false. The PLO was created in 1964, three years before Israel captured the West Bank and Gaza. There were dozens of terrorist attacks killing Jews prior to from 1948-1967. Somehow the author ignores these facts. The author would rather Jews allow themselves to be killed to avoid aggravating those who want to kill them. As long as the Arab definition of Oppression is the inability to kill Jews and destroy Israel as they wish, I am afraid there will be no peace. And this is not the fault of the Jews who would prefer not to die.
45. What is the Palestinian offer for peace?
Sam ,   Canada   (06.18.14)
The Palestinians will offer a short term truce (hudna) for the West Bank and Jerusalem but that's about it. They try to get the West to destroy Israel by diplomacy or to get the Arabs to destroy it by force. They reject peace but try to pull on the world's heartstrings and Oppenheimer and the like fall for it.
46. Not only does this guy look like a mongoloid
Yerach ,   Jerusalem,Israel   (06.18.14)
He sounds like one too!!!!
47. Re: #15 Bertram
Dan Calic   (06.18.14)
The reason residents hitch hike in this area is simple. The public transportation is very limited. btw, there is no holy book which states Harlem or Watts was given to the blacks by divine authority. On the other hand Jews have one which does indeed say the land was given to them. You ought to read it sometime.
48. Shrapnels in our Backside
Bluma ,   Kibbutz Tel Izchak   (06.18.14)
Mr. Bleeding Heart O. I think that the bleeding in our back comes from you and your simpelminded thinking and if there is some schrapnel ,it is not because of our way of thinking. Beeing of the w.w 2 generation, the schrapnels we got in our back came because we were also naive.
49. he is right
Abel Halame El Hamon ,   Isratina   (06.18.14)
It is Israel's fault. Everything is Israel's fault, from winning the war to grant autonomy to the arabs in Judea, Samaria and Gaza. It world have been better if Israel had lost the war, so the "palestinians" wouldn't be frustrated. BTW of Israel had lost the war,the "palestinians" would be jordanians and not independent "palestinians".
50. Yariv, where is the Palestinian "Shalom Achshav"?
Nethanel ,   Jerusalem   (06.18.14)
What is the Palestinian counter organization you are working with? A group which speaks out against ALL violence on its OWN side, an organization criticizing its OWN government?? There is None! The problem is there is no Palestinian Yariv out there (someone like Mohamed Zoabi), and certainly the few individuals who act like you, are not embraced by you!!
51. Yariv...
chaim   (06.18.14)
As dumb as they come. At what point will you admit that you are a complete and utter failure? That all that you stand for and believe is nothing more than pure crap? It's people like you that have weakened this nation and people like you that cause Israelis to despair. No matter how wrong you are, you will never admit it and continue to with the same naive stupidity.
52. Is Muhammad Oppenheimer Jewish or one of those IDF converts?
Danny   (06.18.14)
He has all the qualifications to head an Arab state - in Jordan, that is.
53. Tax all illegal funding of piss niow by the eu
Daniel ,   TA - IL   (06.18.14)
these broken record judenrats better go to the eu and play with their jewhating friends
54. Well Spoken Sir!
World Citizen ,   the world   (06.19.14)
55. Naturally
chutia ,   new delhi, india   (06.19.14)
Few Israelis will like what mr Oppenheimer has said because he spoke the truth. Anyways, lets pray for the three teenagers to return home safe and soon. Also, pls put in a few words of prayer for the Pals languishing in israeli jails
56. You don't kidnap children because you lose hope
Vered, Israel   (06.19.14)
You kidnap children because you gave been indoctrinated not to see the humanity in Israelis, and because you are under the decision that the losers of a war should dictate the terms of victory. They could have had a state. Maybe not the ideal one they dreamed of, but then again, if you get to pick and choose the terms of victory, even if you lose, then there is no incentive not to start a war.
57. I call for the safety and protection of Yariv Oppenheimer!
Wendy Davis   (06.19.14)
Oh, wait, I don't have to. This is Israel where we can say what we want, no matter how left- or right-wing it is, without fear of personal harm.
58. To No. 47.
Bertram ,   London, UK   (06.19.14)
Well, all one can say is beware of divine authority bearing gifts. Your remarks are nonsensical. In an era of persecution and genocide Jewish people fought hard for a homeland in Palestine, they were not given it. In so doing, as even Jabotinsky pointed out, they had to contend with the fact that Palestine was already inhabited by an Arab population. Only wishful thinking - rationalised by 'divine authority' - designated it a 'land without a people' waiting for a 'people without a land'.
59. Mr.Yariv should stop preaching to us
James Stroud ,   Jerusalem   (06.19.14)
We don't need his advice,he has a very negative and defeatist attitude...
60. descpicable... my parents when in the concentratio camps
Daniel ,   TA - IL   (06.19.14)
never even thought of harming the kids of monsters. The facts that this eu funded fakester justifies this, is scary and says a lot about him and his supporters.
