1. When Jews show weakness anti-Semitism heightens.
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.07.14)
Israeli leaders are showing tremendous weakness bringing about danger not only in Israel but in the entire world.
2. I live in Australia - the media here are 2 blame
Hila ,   Australia   (08.07.14)
The people here are inundated with one sided false reporting about the situation in Gaza. People normally here are I would say quite suspicious of Muslims and Muslim immigrants here. Particularly after 9/11. Most people know they come here and many do cause trouble particularly young Lebanese men. Who seem to have no respect for Australian women. Maybe they feel braver from all the fake reporting going on here and feel they can get away pulling crap like that.
3. George Galloway and Roger Waters are to blame
k ,   US   (08.07.14)
they are making it acceptable to attacks Jews in the western world, any attack on any Jew or any Israeli in the West should be met with a response on the George Galloways and the Roger Waters of the western world
4. Shame on Sydney Morning Herald
Benji ,   US   (08.07.14)
For printing anti-Semitic cartoons and fueling hateful sentiment. These juveniles need to be charged as adults for this hate crime.
5. Criminals in a prison take hostages. Would the world demand
Adi ,   Israel   (08.07.14)
Criminals in a prison take hostages. Would the world demand borders opened and free trade. I have never seen an administration make so many mistakes. Hamas is terror. They kidnapped, fired rockets mortars and bullets aimed to kill. They dug tunnels designed to raid murder and kidnap. The responses of world leaders is tragic. They pass on to the terrorists a message. The more you terrorise. The more we will recognise you and submit to your demands.
6. A remark to the mother
(08.07.14)
As much as I understand that you would like to distance yourself from the Middle East - you cannot distance yourself from being Jewish. We in Israel suffer daily from attacks; missiles and rockets - and we fight back. You need to fight back as well and be proud of who you are, which I am sure you are. You may not live in Israel - but you are Jewish. And for the mom that said her kids need therapy - I can understand that. Can you imagine what kids in Israel have been going through with sirens, terror etc.? I condemn all these attacks and just hope that you can do what you can for your kids and also for the State of Israel. We all need to go hand in hand to wipe out terror, wherever it is.
7. Typical . .
Mike ,   NZ   (08.07.14)
Lydia from Brisbane would be so proud !
8. One famous export of "Palestine".
Robert Busika ,   Kampala, Uganda   (08.07.14)
One famous export of "Palestine".
9. Bus
Joe   (08.07.14)
Arab descendants youngster threatened jewish kids. How long do we have to except this. Jail this bastards and throw away the key.
10. #3 you aim too low
(08.07.14)
For Hamas, civilian casualties were a strategic victory: no blame and one-sided condemnation of Israel. Remember, Egypt wanted to stop the war early on by forcing Hamas to accept surrender conditions, but someone nixed the idea and force a few more weeks of fighting with lots more dead Arabs. It wasn't nobodies like Galloway and Waters who did these, it was far more important politicians .
11. #3 k,
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (08.07.14)
12. #3 k, Update your list.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (08.07.14)
K,you'd better add to your list one Nick Clegg,leader of the UK Liberal Democrat Party. This 'liberal' is shielding and encouraging genocidal Islamo-fascist terrorists,Hamas and Islamic Jihad,that attack democratic Israel. He now proposes that democratic Israel be subjected to a cessation of arms sales by the UK to prevent democratic Israel from defending itself when attacked by terrorists. Some Liberal Democrat,eh? How about spreading his name about a bit in your neck of the world? THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
13. #2 Hila,You do have an alternative.
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (08.07.14)
If you find the local media unbalanced and distasteful,try tuning in to the BBC World Service. Then you'll really want to vomit. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
14. ld n"the conflict in the Middle East shouot be imported here
Albrecht ,   EU   (08.08.14)
How do they dare to disturb the vacations of these children while their parents are so busy with killing of the Palestinian children in Gaza?
15. what about the bus driver's collusion?
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (08.08.14)
It seems that the bus driver should be investigated for collusion. If he let these young terrorists on the bus and did nothing to stop them; then he has a hand in this affair. Why have the police not questioned him?
16. I found ... !
libi4ever ,   Libya   (08.08.14)
A quick and easy solution, send them all to their beloved promised land Israel and everyone will be happy!
