israel will not allow millions of enemy civilians to flood her territories. like all sovereigns, israel determines her own immigration laws.
32. # 23 So brave spoken from Seattle
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (12.26.14)
Occupy? Forever? America and countless other nations have "Occupied forever' and have been quite successful at it. I do believe however it is a consequence of WINNING wars which BTW no Arab has done in eons. Hard to win a war while in retreat. Harder to win hearts while beheading innocent people. Perhaps it is YOU that needs to become more educated? ISRAEL HAS NEVER LOST A WAR, THE pals NEVER WON A WAR ( Neither has their boy obama.)
33. # 29 Stan So, what are you doing LIVING IN ISRAEL???
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (12.26.14)
No one in Europe pre 1948 supported one live Jew. I assume your one of the dinosaurs that believes that by living in Israel you'll somehow become a pal 'liberator' soon? LOL Delusional hypocrite. The pals/ muslims/arabs/ love murdering one another. ( so, their numbers are reduced via 'self abortion." All approved by their mullahs. Love it!!! )
34. # 29 Human rights?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (12.26.14)
No pal has any human rights UNLESS living in Israel, like you Stan. For that matter no Muslim female enjoys any human rights in any Muslim nation. Silly, ignorant boy. KEEPING BUSY BUILDING ISRAEL!! there is NO palestine.

"it's hard to shake off the feeling that the State of Israel, and its different branches, as well as the Jewish organizations which are active on the campuses (sometimes in an outrageous lack of coordination), are failing to provide a real response to the anti-Israel wave."
36. It's not an anti-Israeli wave
John ,   Toronto   (12.27.14)
"it's hard to shake off the feeling that the State of Israel..... failing to provide a real response to the anti-Israel wave." It's anti-Israeli TSUNAMI brought on by your own belief that you can do whatever you want whenever you want. A spoiled brat enabled by the US congress.
37. Israel on US Campuses - Peretz Lavie
Jerry ,   Highland Park, USA   (12.30.14)
Dr. Lavie's comments are sad. His conclusion that the Israeli government should take this more seriously is correct. However, a major failure of the Netanyahu govt is that it has failed to project any vision for a resolution: if not the 2-state solution, then what? Americans increasingly see this as unending occupation, followed by resistance and war, and that there will be no end. To change the tenor on campus (or in Europe, etc.), the Israeli govt must put forward some goal of ending the current situation, and not simply respond to each upsurge in violence by the Palestinians.
38. The Muslims of France have the answer.
Naro ,   nyc   (01.07.15)
Violence works.

Is this the reason that so many Jews are leaving Israel and moving to Germany. Israel can not sell anything with out going through the USA. I think you need to rethink your view point.
40. OBAMA

Why donĀ“t you request that Israel give back American tax money that Obama approved of.

The article in the "Sud Deutsche Zeitung" about Israelis living in Germany has only in the last few days been demolished as a hoax, a lie, and an exaggeration in the deepest tradition of Yellow Journalism. There are no more than 11,000 Israelis in Berlin, a large proportion of whom are only temporary residents. In fact, the Israeli leader of the social protests who had moved to Germany and made waves about cost of living, has in fact returned to Israel. What does that say about the rest of your claim? And "Israel cannot sell anything without goingt though the USA"? Seriously? Most of Israel's exports are to the EU. A growing number are to Asia. Get a clue.
42. To Nadya #9, this is not a "grass roots movement"
Jake   (01.09.15)
The anti-Israel propaganda movmements on campus are the works of Arab, Moslem, pro-palestinian, and extreme lefttist/fascist pressure groups which represent but a tiny proportion of the student body. Most students are there to get an education and a degree. They are subjected to crippling student loans, and their parents are saddled with vast expenses to put them through college. A lot of students and parents resent university campuses being turned into centers of propaganda and indocrination and a battle ground for the Arab-Israeli conflict.
43. #9 Nadya lets make a deal
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (01.21.15)
Ask America to end her 'settlements'.. LOL Their now called cities. That BDS movement is constipated and rightfully so. Too many inventions of necessity to keep people from beating a path to Israel's door. Other than terror, what have the 'fictitious pals' to offer? The only 'occupying' people are the Arabs in Israel. ARABS GO HOME !!! ISRAEL KEEP BUILDING !!!
44. #39 Not so fast
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (01.21.15)
Israel HAS sold many of her inventions to many nation without any aid from pro arab obama. Germany wouldn't be the first choice for Jews. Muslims maybe Jews no. Don't worry about Israel worry about your own nation and your own Muslims, Jews don't commit acts of terror, beheadings, and assassinations. SAVE A JEW BUILD A HOME!!!
