1. This law is a disgrace
Michael ,   Haifa   (08.08.18)
and the Knesset Speaker's response to a legitimate and well deserved protest is also disgraceful. Time to purge the swamp and get real representation in the Knesset. Elections now!
2. The Law and Administration Ordinance of May 21, 1948
Jake   (08.08.18)
retroactively gave the Provisional Government of Israel legislative, executive, and judicial powers starting from May 15, 1948.
The Israel government did NOT incorporate the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel (dated May 14) into Israeli law.
The Knesset and Supreme Court have since ruled that the Declaration of Independence should be used as an inspirational document and interpretive tool when new laws are being created, but it does not form part of Israel's legal code. In the event of a conflict between the two, the newly passed law stands.

The Jewish Nation-State Law, like Israel's Basic Laws which enshrine Israel as a democracy with equality under the law for all its citizens, was passed fully in accord with the principles of Israel's Declaration of Independence.
3. The Witch is back and the law states the obvious
judah ,   jerusalem   (08.08.18)
4. While Islam pisses on us, this idiot-bitch mops it up!
(08.08.18)
5. Whenever there's a "women's"& "peace" together, nothing good
(08.08.18)
will come out of it.
as a matter of fact nothing good can come out of a group differentiating itself by gender or race.

6. Livni is a worthless piece of human crap
Phoenix   (08.08.18)
She will never rule this country she’s a leftist scumbag
7. Livni HATES the Jewish state....She is a DISGRACE !!!!!
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (08.08.18)
8. Tzipora is out of her mind
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (08.09.18)
9. Princess Livni lacks morality
C   (08.09.18)
she denies the long suffering, persecuted, slaughtered jewish people their
right to national self determination.

she prefers to see the sole jewish state to be dismembered.

national self determination is part of sovereignty. it is not accorded
to minorities that do not have their own territory, their own
government, their unique people hood.

the druse are entitled to equality under the laws of the state of
israel, but they are not entitled to national self determination.
10. Watching Livni tear "Zionist Union" apart, Go Livni go!
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.09.18)
One can't say Livni hasn't done anything for Israel. She has done quite a lot for Israel; all unintentionally. She destroyed the loathsome Kadima Party. She destroyed her own horrible Hatnua Party. She destroyed despicable Herzog's bid to be P.M. Now she is hard at work tearing the awful "Zionist Union" apart. Go Livni go!
