1. The Israeli left
Mickey ,   Sydney, Australia   (07.27.14)
Fantastic analysis of the bankrupt Israeli 'left'
2. Now tell it to someone like Perski(not that he isn't "suppor
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.27.14)
ting" our army), but this ideological buffoon is willingly & knowingly sticking to his New Middle East guns, although we all know they're made out of plastic. As for the"leftists": it's a world-wide phenomenon of youthful rebellion against "the system" mutating into self destructive, self hating pathological behaviour without remedy in sight.... With us, it is particularly dangerous & disgusting.
3. I think you are giving too much credit.
Ron ,   Melbourne,Australia   (07.27.14)
Unfortunately most people will take the emotional route - I made up my mind do not confuse me with facts. Look at the lack of interest in any other suffering - the Ethnic cleansing of Christians from Arab lands, the persecution of minorities (Coptic, Bahai), etc ,etc - this does not phase them and they always find an excuse. For Decades the communist countries killed millions of people, subjugated many countries, etc - none of it mattered - the left still worry about American Imperialism. There are Gays persecuted in the PA - not a problem,..... - do you think this 'exposure' is so much worst then all the other failiings ??? -
4. extreme left and extreme right
jez ,   edinburgh, scotland   (07.27.14)
The Israeli left is fine the argument is against the extreme left and similarly disparaging criticism could definitely be made against the extreme right in Israel. The horseshoe of politics.
5. What are you trying to prove?
Harri ,   EU   (07.28.14)
You are so exited about your war that you forget to look around you. You are not 'winning'. Everybody is loosing and you dont have any exit strategy out of this war. Eventually you are waiting for UN and US to save your ass when you dont have any shekels left to continue. But this time you are right in one thing. There are much worse wars going on. You can keep killing and nobody cares. After few years of war you have killed 100 000 Palestinians, ruined your economy and still have 5 million Palestinians waiting for death or Israeli passport.
6. "Those who scream hatred" ...
Miron ,   UA   (07.28.14)
we got a blogger with loose lips in our nation government.
7. to 3

8. European Jews invaded Palestine, not other way around, Left
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.28.14)
...and Right Israeli Jews switched roles, Right and Left created Israel, right hijacked it, creating Greater Israel, perpetuating, expanding crisis in middle east. Who is paying for this crime? The entire world.
