mike north ,   karmiel israel   (08.19.15)
Israell is depicted in the media due to one factor only-anti zionism is the new antisemitism
2. If only she would have expressed support for ISIS ........
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (08.19.15)
she would have been praised
3. Best way to learn about Israel is to visit
Scott ,   Ramat Gan   (08.19.15)
The biggest misconception people have about Israel is that Arabs & Jews are constantly at each others throats. This is not true, most Arabs & Jews co-exist peacefully, not only in Israel, but also in Judea & Samaria where Jewish & Arab villages are not far from each other. Whatever your opinion is, if you want to know what is really happening here, just visit, whether it's for a few days or a few weeks.

6. Carter - Now You Know Israel Is Wonderful
Tova ,   Canada   (08.19.15)
As a Canadian, I feel safer in Israel than in Canada. Most people don't understand what that means. I tell people go to Israel and see for yourself. Do not pay attention to the News. The media likes to scare people and constantly crticize Israel. Israel is much more advance than Canada. It is the Liberal minded people who are the most ignoranat when it comes to world affairs, especially when they talk about Israel.
7. nazi germany.
Sweetsocks ,   nyc   (08.19.15)
people always told me how horrible nazi germany was, so i built a time machine and spent 24 hours there. and i went to a lovly opera, enjoyed fine dining, it was totally different than what all horrible stuff i heard about. so i must presume that all the horrible stuff that i did not on my 24 hour tourist trip must be made up
8. Israel
Daniel Elman ,   Tarzana, CA USA   (08.19.15)
I frequently visit Israel and I have worked as an anesthesiologist many times, including caring for injured people, both Jewish and Arab. There is no different treatment for anyone. This is the only democracy in the Middle East. My wife and children love Israel and the people.
9. Slow news day, Ynet? An article about facebook comments?
David ,   Tel Aviv   (08.19.15)
You could have a job for life if you wanted to find facebook statuses about who likes/hates israel.
10. Emma Carter's facebook
Nahum Froumin ,   RamatHaSharon,Israel   (08.21.15)
Alex Deane, Colonel Kemp and the cast of Mama Mia will agree with Emma Carter. The ignorance or intended distortions of influential journalists and others must be confronted by the Israeli media.
11. Democracy?
TC ,   AZ, USA   (08.22.15)
Not for the 4 million living under a brutal occupation, with no right to self-determination, economic freedom, ability to travel etc.
12. Having to close FB acount because of a compliment to Israe
Tania ,   Argentina   (08.23.15)
First I din't ""LKKE" a comment from Arizon an it appears as if I did because I tried to make a comment.. Therere are a couple of people talking about apartheid and they eithr don't know what itmeans or haven't been to Israel. Israeli Arabs go to the same universities, the same classrooms, at the same time as Jewish students. Arabs go to the same hospitals and get the same treatment by the Arab and Jewish doctors and nurses. They share rooms as well. Churches and mosquesare attended at will by Christian and Muslim Arabs. Where these hateful seeapartheid I don't know. As far as occupaing I bet none of these haters get on Russian,czech, Polish or other sites tocall them occupayers. These countries ans others have lands that belonged to Germany or even to each other . That happened as a cosequence of wars. In thecaseof Israel, ithasbeen attackedevery time. Israelgave Gaza to the Arabs years ago, and all it s teachtheir kids, aall their citizens hate and to kill "the Jews". You see it in TV programs for kids and in schools. A partheid? Go to Saudi Arabia where you will have no Christian doctors, where you can wear no crosses or read a bible and whetre non Muslims are foorbidden to enter the city of Mecca. Haters go to Saudi sites and make comments!!!
13. Israel, the "Show Me" State
Jerod Hatch ,   Hemet, CA   (09.03.15)
Show us one country in the Middle East that affords women, children, minorities, homosexuals, and other religions the same rights that Israel affords it's citizens. Please, show us.
