1. It is the Israeli Football Association
Mark B. ,   Amsterdam / Holland   (06.03.15)
Stop calling football soccer for a start if you want some goodwill on this.
2. think how bad it would have been under labor, left. bibi bes

3. Israel needs much more Churchillian "arrogance"!
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.03.15)
It can't escape the notice of any rational person that every single Israeli retreat leads to disaster. Yet leftists, like the author, have only one answer to every problem. Kissing butt. In leftist parlance, standing up for our rights is "arrogance". Israel needs much more Churchillian "arrogance". Bibi is not the real solution. However, his government has many good ministers such as Shaked and Hotovely. Bibi's government is infinitely better than a lunatic Labor government would be. Heaven forbid!
4. Too obvious to ignore
Jdk ,   new York U.S.   (06.03.15)
There is a concept in Judaism called hashgacha pratit, or detailed divine providence. The Palestinians,, or anybody else may want to try to do to us whatever they think, but the one above is so openly on our side that you need to be very blind not to recognise it. FIFA for most of its 111 years had been an organization with corruption and when do they get exposed, when they entertained the idea of lending a hand to this trial at isolating the Jewish state, doesn't it tell you that Go-D is watching over us? Relax HE is driving and HE is a good one. עוצו עצה ותופר, דברו דבר ולא יקום כי עמנו א-ל
5. hrzog is a pathetic wimp
hy   (06.03.15)
obama who was wrong about morsi, about libya, about erdogan and abbas, now has his jewish friend herzog kiss his rear end and attack bibi who by the way stood up to him but not sufficiently in my opinion.' Herzog is a pathetic wimp who doesn't even know it. And israelis are wimps for votiing for herzog. How coulld any self respecting israeli even consider herzog who is one of the weakest israelis to ever hit the land. That ehud barak gave herzog his blessing shows how disconnected barak is. By the way, barak now warns us about hezbollah missiles. What the hell did he do as defense minister? Why didn't he do something about it then? What a bs hippocrite he is!
6. Looks like FIFA is the one falling apart, not Israel.
Jake   (06.03.15)
As usual, the editorials here are about as observant of reality and the big picture as a microscope is to the surface of Jupiter.
7. humility against any form of anti-semitism
Avram Goldsmith ,   Canada   (06.03.15)
iSRAEL has to lose humility which in its neighberhood is suicidale. Israel has to lose humility which brought 6 milions Jews die. Israel humility during 6 days war given up Jerusalem and holy sites to Arabs. And now if you give up easly your right on base of political rightness , you loosing your status and everything is coming against you. FIFA show to be a very corrupt organization anyhow, politization of sport is forbiden , so whtat the heck is your analysis taking about?????
8. YNET, you definitely have a pronounced distaste for Net
Cameron ,   USA   (06.03.15)
He never catches a break here.
9. NEVER cower to Anti-Semites!
Benny ,   Iran   (06.03.15)
The Jewish Nation answers to a "higher authority" . You see how Hashem has disabled & destroyed the anti-Semites in the countries all around Israel. All the leaders and their countries are destroyed 1 by 1. You cannot fight God's will! Europe gave us the Holocaust. Muslims kicked the Jews of the Middle East out. They hanged Jews in the square in Iraq. Muslim Nations are paying back for the "EVIL" they perpetrated on God's Children. Obama also will fail miserably in his daily "sneaky" diatribes vs. Israel.
10. 1
Birdi ,   Israel   (06.04.15)
Stop telling us what to say & what to do. Put a huge sock in it.
11. NONSENSE! The world has reacted harsher against Israel
Dan   (06.04.15)
when leftists were leading. The world wants Israel to show they're a sovereign country and have power like other countries.
12. BDS
Michael ,   Haifa   (06.05.15)
It will only affect Israelis, when it hits them in their pockets. Ask any white South African.
