Peeping into your neighbors party is no problem but his use of a flag for a table cloth is!? Crazy world we live in...
2. Fools! You should feel proud that they're using
(12.31.15)
your flag as tablecloth looking at it throughout the entire meal.
3. Who cares?
Brad ,   USA   (12.31.15)
Muslims are always photographed burning American flags and Israeli flags. I can think of even better ways to use Muslim flags. They would be offended at that also, but that's ok. It fits right in with me not giving a damn.
4. Crazy voyeuristic jungle island

They should be glad their ancestors weren't so patriotic, otherwise they'd still be stuck in South China or Tamil Nadu.
5. for once, an appropriate response by the Foreign Ministry.
Rafi ,   US   (12.31.15)
good job Dore Gold! as to the neighbor's vile behavior & comments - that's a whole separate issue - and also deserving of rebuke. But the guard's an idiot and his behavior inexcusable.
6. Xenophobic reaction

Just imagine for a moment the following sentence uttered by some European national "These people have no respect for our country and flag. They come to our country in order to steal jobs, women, and they even think they can step on us and insult our sovereignty," The police would have arrested the person and the attorney general prosecuted for a smattering of "hate crime" / "Thought crime". "Oh, wonder! How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in ’t!"

i'll bet you've never even been in Singapore. The Singaporean government eats a lot more domestic political costs with its Malay population (to maintain its VERY close military ties with IDF) than any 5000 American Obama-loving Jews combined.

I've never been in Singapore, which is irrelevant, but I have read the Koran, which is not. You can't separate the Koran from Islam, or Islam from Muslims. The Koran is crystal clear about what Muslims should do. Therefore I despise Islam and use its own words (the Koran) against it and against Muslims. As for "Obama loving Jews", you're absolutely right, but they're not Israelis, they're just more liberal American useful idiots. By the way, anyone who stands against Gods chosen people (that's Israel) is also a useful idiot.
9. wow the head of security was there & neighbors took photos
(01.01.16)
can you say "gaping hole in the security protocols in Singapore?" (and also to our friends in Singapore...our sincere apologies...our child misbehaved.)
