1. fighting for one rights
Jake ,   Jerusalem   (07.28.15)
it is important to fight for one's rights especially if you are Jewish in Israel, the land of abusive anti-Jewish discrimination. Whereas the police and army ignore rock throwers and illegal building bu Arabs, they beat Jews unmercifully. So we have a court of justice that is totally blind and liberal to blame.
2. Then secular Israel wonders why there's so much antiSemitism
Chaim   (07.28.15)
in the world. When will secular Jews wake up and realize that the world treats Israel the way they, secular Jews, treat their Jewish brothers in Israel?
3. Destroying Settlements
Phllip A Nagle ,   United States   (07.28.15)
Have you noticed how the world wide media gets upset when Israel destroys Arab settlements for not having proper permits but is silent when the same thing happens to Jewish settlements.
4. Alot of empty spaces
Zechariah   (07.28.15)
The settlement movement proves how much refugee space was available for the six million Jews of Europe to escape the Shoah but blocked by Islam and in a small area .
5. @#3 Philip - Don't Worry, Phillip. I am Sure
Doug ,   Rochester, USA   (07.28.15)
the world wide media would get upset with the Palestinians if they illegally occupied another nation, illegally colonized it, stole the land and water from those that lived there for thousands of years, then tore down their settlements. Especially if the victims were Jews.
6. lapid -a snivelling olmert and bibi is finished
geroge   (07.28.15)
lapid likes to act tough and have everyone else do thefighting while this coward only did press duties in the idf. on the other hand, israelis are dumb enough to have votedfor him. \bibi is now finished, nothingwill save him. \israelis detest his lack of spine the same way they hated olmert.
7. To No.1.
Bertram ,   London, UK.   (07.29.15)
"... Israel, the land of abusive anti-Jewish discrimination." Glad to see you are keeping up the tradition of Jew as victim - even in the Jewish state! If victimhood was taken from us it would threaten our very identity and existence..
8. call him what he really is
marv   (07.29.15)
lapid, an elitist snob ex journalist whose arrogance is legendary is one of th emost useless israelis around. \he herzog and livni danced around obama-oh he will save us-lets follow him.h\e and livni along with bibi limited and slowed down the 2014 gaza operation. Now he backs the soldiers in bet al just like olmert did in amona.\well lapid- do israel a big favour and jump off a cliff or relocated to amman jordan.\take useless livni with you along with the gutless herzog who would not endorse bar's 2 state planwhich of course stinks cause herzog wants to test the waters.\what a weakling.\ Nasrollah has great reason todoubt thezionist project when he looks at this collection of feint hearted pacifists.
9. the court is harming israel
jerold   (07.29.15)
while goingeasy on olmert and arab squatters,thecourt takes pleasure in haring israelis and their claims. After the holocaust, the court now is harming israelisphysically and rendering israeli claims in doubt, thereby encouraging arab terrorism. Agaiin we see the idf and border police harming civilians. Why not leave israle to the arabs and move to new york you bunch of jackasses.
10. yaalon continues with hismistakes
jerzy   (07.29.15)
yaalon has been a good general especially in cleaning out the west bank. But since he hooked up with netanyahu, he has become political and less effective. The gaza campaign was slow and hesitant made worse by lapid and livni. The calm for calm doesnot remove the threat ofhamasor hezbollah so that policy stinks. Bibi adopted calm for calm because he has a yellow streak that is big. Yaalon should disconnect from bibi and help israelis in his administration of the idf, not hurt them.
11. Well done to our security forces
Miri   (07.29.15)
Well done to our security forces in dealing with these lawless thugs who seem to think they are above the law.
12. # 3 Most are professional anti semites.
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (07.29.15)
They know nothing of Israel's history for they are ignorant and many also are not interested in facts just some hyperbole from Arabs ILLEGAL squatting on ancient Jewish land. Don't worry, G-d is on our side. KEEP BUILDING !!!
13. # 5 Doug LOL Really?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (07.29.15)
The pals did just that, squatted on Israel's land while the Jews were scattered by Rome. The "world' could care less about the pals now, everyone is focusing on the 'pals' heirs, ISIS. The media never won a war, their supposed to report the facts, not make them up as they go. LOVE BUILDING ANCIENT JEWISH ISRAEL!!!
14. # 6 Americans LOVE Bibi wanna trade for weakling obama?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (07.29.15)
BUILDING IS WINNING !!!! obama can't win any argument. Bibi is highly respected in America- obama is not. ALWAYS BUILDING !!!
15. Maybe not so wise fight that they've picked. One can under-
(07.29.15)
stand the timing, but the cause is totally "off"....
16. Arab illegal structures , YES
jake ,   Petach Tikva   (07.29.15)
To destroy a structure is a Jewish neighborhood because of some technicality is simply wicked. The Jewish people did not choose these judges.
17. #5
attie   (07.29.15)
but that is what they have done I dont hear any complaints
18. Why don't we ever see illegal Arab homes being destroyed?
Sam   (07.29.15)
even though the self-made high court ordered their destruction? Why are only Jewish homes destroyed in the own JEWISH LAND?
19. Time to use bulldozers against the High Court
Moti Yogev ,   JH   (07.29.15)
What a blessing that would be for Israel.
20. Beth El
Abe Benjamin ,   Migdal HaEmek,Israel   (07.29.15)
Bibi !!! I foolishly voted for you, time and again. You are the mirror image of Shimon Peres. Why don't you deal with the rioters on Har Ha Baith? Because you are an impotent leader, and choose to bully us Jews. Your father will be turning in his grave to see you at your best / worst. Shame on you !!!
