1. Gazans elected Hamas and have chosen to suffer
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (03.30.18)
Change your leaders to change your lot
Stop blaming others for the choices you have made
2. I am ashamed of being Jewish when I see my government ....
Ursula Shmirling ,   Tel Aviv   (03.30.18)
torment 2 million Gazan this way. Gaza is the Warsaw Ghetto of our time, and Israel, not Abbas or Sissi, is responsible first and foremost.
It is true the Son of bitch in Ramallah, and the son of bitch in Cairo who grovels at our feet, are responsible. But our own sons of bitches at Hakirya in Tel Aviv and in Jerusalem are absolutely responsible for this huge scandal.

sorry. This is not the Israel I was told it would be. I am leaving this country for Netanyahu and Bennetter and their barbarian followers.
3. Undoubtedly, Israel a shameless and criminal state
Chaim Mizrahi ,   Beer Shiva, Israel   (03.30.18)
what else can be said about a country whose soldiers murder innocent and impoverished people hundreds of meters away and then claim the victim carried a suspicious object or ........!?
4. Hilarious: Gazans staging "civil rights protest". How insane

When you leave. If Gaza is the Warsaw Ghetto of our time then this time it is a ghetto of their own making. Israel forcibly removed every last Jewish settler from Gaza and left all the infrastructure and buildings. Gazans had a means to govern themselves and establish a homeland. They held elections and voted in Hamas. Hamas doesn't want peace or a homeland that doesn't wipe Israel off the map. This is proven by every action Hamas takes---including this protest march. That Israel hasn't shut it's borders totally to Gaza and allows trucks of supplies provides water and electricity is clearly out of compassion for the civilians suffering. No other country on earth allows rocket attacks and doesn't declare war and move towards the conquest and annihilation of those that attacked them. So I say to you goodbye. Enjoy your life as a non-Jew (who will be viewed as Jewish by all others) find a lovely country to live in and leave the rest of us to figure out how to solve our need for peace and security.
9. They have a homeland
Tova   (04.01.18)
It is not Gaza, It is not the west bank. It is not anywhere in the middle east.

These people are decendents of Mecedonia and Aegean. Go Back to your homeland.

The Egyptians conquered your over 4 thousands years ago and you still killing your own people and the Israeli.

Your leaders have no association with your kind. And you voted for Hamas.
You get what you vote for.
10. now we found a guilty one URSULA
tomer ,   jerusalem   (04.03.18)
i do not know Ursula,but i guess she is a german lady who choose to live in Israel.Now ursula found the courage to critize the israeli government for
handling the gaza march issue and this brought her a wave of anti-german
remarks. She will have to live with this. But it shows on which level of human
development we ,israelis , are stuck. We are are still at "tribal",mythical state and this will not change quickly .( our neighbours suffer from same problem). A european living in Israel ,with his democratic,enlightened,liberal
views,will be told : " you have to understand how things work in the Middle east,in Israel etc" . And if one does not understand we do exactly that what
europeans did 60-80 years ago to jews. ( we built ghettos, we attack people because of skin colour or religion, we try to get rid of refugees, we want to stay alone,no mixing, we do not want critical media , we prefer one opinion,
we do not like liberal,critical art and artist, we want loyal art and artist,we
love our king and queen and we do not care if they do wrong .All this and more you have to understand Ursula ,yes ,u have to . :) thats what we want
from u. (pls.do not listen )

11. return to your homeland Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Saudia
