1. what happened?
(01.18.15)
For month the extreme-Left has been called "Center Left", why are they suddenly called "Zionist Camp"? How many are draft dodgers or called others to refuse to serve? (Merav...) How many held jobs funded by foreign NGO's that consider Zionism a crime? (Stav...) How many condemned Likud for supporting Aliyah? (Zippy...) How many publicly declared for support for IDF soldiers falsely accused of war crimes? (NONE).
2. Labour-Hatuna is a "zionist camp"
Dan   (01.18.15)
Is it 1984 again?
3. The Anti-Zionist camp wants to deceive voters
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.18.15)
It is hilarious what they call themselves.
4. To Dan, Steve and the anonymous hack
Eldar ,   Haifa   (01.18.15)
Dear right-wing incessant babblers that have nothing to do but stir up bald-face lies (but hey, if you repeat it enough it becomes truth). The left-wing in Israel contributed as much if not more to the army and the security of the state as your hill-top living, flag-waving, sloganeering, public-funds stealing Likud/Shas/BayitHayehudi representatives. You'd have to be blind to miss the fact that most of the top-tier generals, intelligence chiefs and diplomats are on the left end of the spectrum. Why? Because they're (we're) Zionists who believe that Israel's security is more than holding on to a grave, spray painting slogans on cars or beating up a Palestinian farmers.
5. Labor/Hatmua is far left. Not Zionist
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.19.15)
Do the destructive far leftists of Labor/Hatnua think they can fool Israelis by calling themselves the "Zionist camp"?
6. #4
(01.19.15)
Did Merav Michaeli call for draft dodging, yes or no? Who employed Stav Shaffir before she joined Labor? What was Livni's reaction when Netanyahu called for Jews to immigrate after the Hyper Cacher massacre? When has Herzog defended IDF against Abbas war crimes accusations?
7. the token russian oleh
Scott ,   Ramat Gan   (01.19.15)
Labor's not fooling anyone. These people came to escape socialism. Labor is anti-Zionist & anti-capitalist.
8. chaim you're confused
Non Jewish immigrant ,   haifa   (01.19.15)
you are confused between Zionism and Neo-Zionism. You and your friends are definitely part of the last one.
9. To Eldar #4
Jake   (01.19.15)
How many "top-tier generals and intelligence chiefs" have actually sitting in the Knesset or the government lately? There is not a lot of data to back up your claim. Of those who did enter political life, e.g. Moshe Ya'alon and Avi Dichter, there has been a notable rightward shift from their Labor-Zionist background. As for Shaul Mofaz, though in the opposition, he has been actively demonized by the Left for most of his political life. Now, who are the high ranking former military and intelligence personnel in the Labor-Hatnua list? Your attempt to paint those who call the bluff on the claim that Labor-Hatnua represent the "Zionist camp", as some kind small coterie of extremists and price-tag attackers is deceptive, desperate, and demonizing.
10. Eldar #4, furthermore...
Jake   (01.19.15)
Instead of launching a cheap ad-hominem attack on #1 ("the anonymous hack"), why don't ya try answering some of the questions he raised?
11. To #8
Jake   (01.19.15)
I think it's pretty obvious, even to you, that this article's use of the term "Zionist camp" to described the Livni-Herzog leftist coalition is a highly partisan and deliberately misleading attempt by the author to engage in pre-election sloganeering on behalf of the opposition. This paper's utter contempt for Netanyahu is hardly a secret, and it is feverishly working to discredit him in the eyes of the voters in the lead-up to the election...even if that means using deception.
