Hey, moron, this conflict has nothing to do with Israelis and "palestinians." This is purely an internecine Arab / Moslem conflict, pitting Sunni against Shi'a. What is wrong with you, anyway? Have you forgotten that the overwhelming majority of the Jewish community in Yemen had to be airlifted out of there in 1948? It isn't exactly as if the Jews of Yemen have enjoyed a happy existence since the Moslems came charging through there. You really are damaged goods.
2. Israel fears for remaining Jews, hmmm...
Moshe   (03.26.15)
All secular media believe that only religious, especially haredim Jews are real Jew. Ynet and other secular media who want to describe Jews would always put photos of religious Jews, especially haredim.
3. Clearly they do not understand the situation..
Beary White ,   Norway   (03.26.15)
..and the only destiny they are facing. Israel should go in and rescue those people while they still are alive, as we know islamic-cult-followers have a tendency of killing non-islamic-cult-followers

Sarah you are a well known spewer of bigoted racist bile and having read it so much I find it very banal and boring so with the greatest of respect I could not care less what you think. The fact that you called me a moron despite the fact I was only making a polite point, a correct point because most of the Mizrachim did flee Arab countries because of the resentment and hatred bred by the Israel-Palestine conflict, shows the level of discourse that you are capable of, when you learn some manners and politeness and can actually refute my points in a respectful, intellectual and calm manner maybe then ill take you seriously, till then good day.
5. they dont wanna leave so let them stay
jew ,   europe   (03.26.15)
they love yemen to the death what can israels state do? let them die for yemen .. their choise
6. # 2 , i know what you mean
jew ,   europe   (03.26.15)
and you right because I can imagine that those 100 jews in yemen are not hereidim, hereidim will come right away to Israel they are probably secular jews who intermarried and its why they wanna stay there even if it is dangerous
7. To #1, Sarah B
John ,   Europe   (03.26.15)
And you forget that it was 1948. Since then, there were much less antisemitic incidents than anywhere in the world. BTW, I still do not understand how come censors here allow your talkbacks. They are filled with insults ("moron", "you really are damaged goods"), with racism, slander, inappropriate language... Only solution is - you are the censor of YNET and abuse that position. Are you?
8. #5 They don't want to leave anf go to Israel only to lose
Kalman M ,   Ashdod   (03.26.15)
the remainder of their beautiful Yemenite community to secular Zionism or to have the Zionist government kidnap their children as they did to about 5,000 of them about 65 years ago. A terrible stain in Zionist that will never be forgotten or forgiven.
9. To: No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.26.15)
No, moron, the Jews in Arab and Moslem countries were largely massacred and expelled by their "hosts." Some had to be airlifted, their situation was so dire. Do you truly mean to suggest that this is an acceptable response to events that occur elsewhere? Did not the Arabs reject partition and go to war against the nascent Jewish state? Did they not lose? Are there not consequences that befall a conquered belligerent? Do you truly mean to suggest -- as you imply -- that should some much beloved Sunni leader get killed somewhere in the Sunni Moslem world, that is an excuse for the Moslems to start massacring Christians or rioting in Europe? You're a couple of puppies shy of a litter, moron. I don't find it mandatory to be polite to idiots. Have a nice day.
10. To: No. 7
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.26.15)
No, moron, I am not a YNet censor. Were I, do you think I would allow ridiculous posts such as the one you crafted? Hardly. By the way -- the term "moron" is not off-color or disrespectful. It's a statement of fact, based on the content of one's post.
11. An article better not written
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (03.27.15)
There's a situation of extreme danger in Yemen for everybody there and even more for the Jewish people there.This is not the time to draw attention to Yemen's Jewish people;it could put them in even greater danger. Maybe there are moves afoot to deal with this or maybe not.I know no more than anyone.My opinion is that the news media in Israel should exercise restraint and not make a bad situation worse by pointing out a hated minority to murderous Islamists. Or to put it another way,some Israelis should learn when to keep their mouths shut. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
12. Sarah, your posts great, but be polite
Benny ,   Iran   (03.28.15)
A lot of the people posting don't have enough education. They are not morons but they think they know & that is dangerous because they mime liberal media that twists everything & make it look like Pals are "the victims." Even his Royal Highness O. We, Jews of the Middle East experienced first-hand . We lived in fear before Israel was born because Jews ,Christians,etc are treated with disdain because the Koran says so & for 1,600 years, it has been the fate of Islam. Their cruelty & harsh behavior vs all infidels is well-documented. Hell , they are butchering their own on a daily basis. You can go to the internet and study this well. Dr. Mordechai Kedar, google him, is the best authority who explains, what is Islam! You will see why they are hopeless!

ralph   (03.28.15)
