1. OBVIOUS SOLUTION :
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED OBVIOUS   (01.18.18)
Build a few Kibbutzim for these poor immigrants to live and work in ,preferably right next to the palestianian towns.
2. IT IS GOOD TO HELP
CAPTAIN SENSIBLE ,   SAFED HONESTY   (01.18.18)
It is kind and loving to help poor immigrants from all backgrounds, the only trouble is Israel is limited in its capacity if it wishes to remain a Jewish state, that is reality, like it....or not.
3. ISRAEL DOES NOT HAVE REFUGEE PROBLEM
CAPTAIN REALITY ,   SAFED HONESTY   (01.18.18)
Want to bet ??
4. CONFUCIUS SAYS :
CONFUCIUS ,   SAFED CHINA   (01.18.18)
Sometimes, in the real world, you must be cruel to be kind.....( but leftists have difficulty grasping this concept )
5. A Jewish State
(01.18.18)
If Israel is to be a country for all refugees, it eventually will end the Jewish state. Israel is a refugee state only for the Jewish people.


6. MESSAGE TO ISRAELI WRITERS
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (01.18.18)
To Amos Oz, David Grossman ,AB Yehoshua, Orly Castel-Bloom ,Meir Shalev ,Etgar Keret ,Zeruya Shalev , Agi Mishol, you are of course entitled to your opinion. I too feel sorry for refugees ,who doesn't feel sorry for them . But I also appreciate and understand that NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED. Please meditate on that fact and contemplate it.
7. Lunatics who need a decent job.
olim hadashim ,   Tel Aviv   (01.18.18)
8. Who cares,,,
Julius ,   Baltimore, USA   (01.18.18)
Do what you do best Isael. Put them black negroes bar non. Send them black negro "Fake Jew" Ethiopians back to Gandar or what ever. Israel most be kept white, light and might,,,,. T.
9. The Hypocrisy Of These Self-righteous Writers
Reuven   (01.18.18)
It's a safe bet that these writers don't live in South Tel Aviv.
10. no to deportation
Joe Wyse ,   Hadera   (01.18.18)
These people from Africa are ready, willing and able to work.There is a shortage of workers in this country in any case. All that they need is a modicum of understanding, respect and compassion and they will eventually become among this country's most loyal citizens.I am sure that some will even convert to Judaism, and sincerely at that, coming from a spiritual culture as most of them do. They harbour no hatred in their hearts for Israel or the Jewish people,and they are not asking for handouts . Let them stay, and let them work and let them live in dignity. Do not allow Miri Regev and her ilk to incite Israelis against the Africans to divert attention from our governments failures and corruption.
11. Filthy leftists
Phoenix   (01.18.18)
Defending these dirty parasites destroying our peace. Israel has no place for these abusive criminals from
Africa. Non should stay in the land of Israel.
12. An idea
BBB   (01.18.18)
wouldn't it be better to follow the example of Israel's democracy and have these same failed states begin to make their nations better than they are now?
13. A SUGGESTION:
CAPTAIN OBVIOUS ,   SAFED CYNIC HOUSE   (01.18.18)
These well-meaning writers should offer to house ,feed and generally to take care of these poor immigrants, in other words these writers should put their money where there mouths are.
14. Amos Oz feels better in Germany than Israel,disregard this p
ab   (01.18.18)
-osturer.
And what kind of argument is "Europe..." Is Israel obliged to follow Europe ,like in the Ghetto times ?!
15. Only 0.5%
Jojo ,   Jerusalem   (01.18.18)
Imagine that, only 0.5% and see what suffrage and balagan they cause in Southern Tel Aviv and several other area's in Israeli cities. No thank you, following the suicidal European approach of 'rachamim' on everybody but ourselves.
16. The state of Israel must forbid the practice of any religion
(01.18.18)
The state of Israel must forbid the practice of any religion other than Judaism in the Land of Israel, because it is written in the Torah, in Exodus 22:19 (in the Christian Bibles it is 22:20) that God commanded that, if a man sacrifices to other god, he be killed, and the Christians sacrifice to other god, because they say that Jesus the Nazarene is God, so that their god is Jesus the Nazarene, and the Muslims sacrifice to other god, because their god, in the Quran, spoke words that conflict with the words that the true God had spoken before, that are written in the Tanakh. So, the persons who practice other religions will not stay in Israel, unless they want to convert to Judaism. So, there will not be illegal infiltrators in Israel anymore.
17. Illegals must not be allowed to stay in Israel. Period
Chaim ,   Israel   (01.18.18)
Nobody has the right to Israeli residency or citizenship. You either come to Israeli legally or go home. Illegals must not be allowed to stay in Israel. Period. It is no surprise Israeli leftists are on the wrong side of this issue. They are on the wrong side of every major issue from Oslo to Disengagement to Arafat to the Golan to...everything.
18. Those who forget their refugee history ...
Bertram ,   London, UK.   (01.18.18)
....are condemned to relive it. But don't worry, Pesach is a long way off, so you don't have to be bothered yet by all that do-gooding 'when you were strangers in a strange land'.
19. Repatriate
Michael ,   raanana   (01.18.18)
Deport all illegal African migrants back to Africa.

Send all the leftists with them.

Let the leftists aid the illegals in their native homelands.
20. "authors and poets" are ready to shelter themin their homes,
Salomon S Mizrahi ,   Sao Carlos   (01.18.18)
How many "refugees" these "authors and poets" are ready to shelter in their homes, in the fancy districts of Tel-Aviv? They want that all taxpayers to sustain invaders?
These "authors and poets" or are dreamers, or smoke a lot of pot or are scoundrels!
21. Any group that keeps Amos Oz company are Quislings/
(01.19.18)
lemmings.
'Nuff said.
22. Complexites beyond the expertise of poets?
Lea ,   Hadera   (01.19.18)
The fact that somebody is a writer or poet does not ensure understanding of complex political situations.
