1. Israel is either a Jewish National State
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (08.13.18)
under which democracy for all its inhabitants is a viable option or it is a Democratic state that currently is an apartheid state
2. Why is it...........
DSM ,   USA   (08.13.18)
that Israel is one of the few, if not the only country, that takes heat from most countries in the UN and many world leaders for just trying to defend it's borders. The same applies when the government announces Israel is a Jewish state. It isn't really hard to understand why...is it.
3. And who/what exactly is prohibiting these fabled Arabs to
(08.13.18)
"integrate"?
The new (and ultra necessary) law?!
4. Why does yet always try to frame story evntly tells truth?
(08.13.18)
5. Israeli Arabs complains
Gene   (08.13.18)
I can understand Arabs" frustration with the new law: "this is a Jewish state and who are you? What are you doing here?'" However, why Arabs demand respect from the state if they themselves don't respect the state? Isn't it weird? There are 13 their representatives in the Knesset and every one of them (EVERY ONE!) showed just open contempt to the state from which they demand equal treatment. They say: the new law is unfair to them. But I think if the new law would treat as equal those who risk their lives to protect it and defend ALL its citizens and those who do opposite - such law would be very unfair to first group of people, the majority of population.
6. After 2000 years you've got a State-and want to "listen"
ab   (08.13.18)
to those that want to take it away from you...
7. All these parasites can go to hell
Phoenix   (08.13.18)
You Ben Dror are an idiot! We don’t owe nothing to this parasites
8. Integration = Bi National State End Of Israel
Israel@Crossroads ,   Jerusalem   (08.13.18)
Only solution is autonomy then link to Palestinian autonomous state any other option will lead to the end of the Jewish Homeland and the end of support by World Jewry and massive exodus of majority of Israeli Jews all this coujd happen as at least half of Israeli Jews are completely secularized with little Jewish sentiments and Post Zionist Left controls Media and powerful financial institutions This is a very discussed possibility among many Israeli Jews
Palestinians have been planning this for a long time
“Allah is the master of Patience “
9. Integration & equality into society
tiki ,   belgium   (08.13.18)
Comes with rights & duties......also for minorities.

10. Yemini's back with his "stupid-period". You were doing OK!
(08.13.18)
11. I disagree - Arabs have more rights + options to succeed
barbara ,   Haifa   (08.13.18)
in Israel than in any other Arab country. A lot of my specialist doctors are Arabs and the plus point in these people is that the subject "Arab" is not relevant in their careers. We (I and they) feel equal to the sense that they use their profession to help others. I am sure that there are a lot more 'Arab' people in careers that are equal to Israelis.

I don't think this new law will change things.
12. Yemini paid to confuse Israeli Public ?
TheDestructiveMedia ,   Jerusalem   (08.13.18)
Is it any wonder so much of the Israeli and other public is confused as to what Israel is all about with “writers “ like this and most of the Post Zionist Media “stars”
13. Time for a patriotic revolution in Israel!
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.13.18)
Underneath all the B.S. of the Israeli left (sometimes expressed in articles like this one by Yemini) lies the sick fact that deep down inside, leftist Jews feel guilty about Israel existing. It took us 2,000 years to reestablish our sole tiny Jewish Homeland, but dumb leftist Jews still feel guilty about it. That is their problem. Not ours. Time for a patriotic revolution in Israel!
14. "She's dead. You killed her." "Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked
Steve Benassi ,   Duluth, MN USA   (08.13.18)
"She's dead. You killed her." "Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked Witch is dead!"
15. Started with professors on Israeli unis just like in west
(08.14.18)
These songs to destroy Israel have been sung on most Israeli campuses to a long time with profs supporting bds nd justifying terrorism. Now its cached streets. Calling for the annihilation of Israel waving terrorist flags is not free speech but illegal by the law.
16. Muslim liars.
Brad ,   Usa   (08.14.18)
Since Muslims lie for a living, it's pointless to talk to them, or deal with them.
17. Shooting themselves in the flag
George Weiss ,   Teaneck, N.J., USA   (08.15.18)
Yes, there may be moderate Muslims bu they are not Isarel's friends and they really do not count because they are so few and their voices are drowned out by those who preach hatred and destruction for Jews.
18. Israeli Arab MK Tibi honors Israeli Arab terrorist
Mordechai   (08.22.18)
When we see Tibi speaking at the funeral of an Israeli Arab terrorist condemning the police for killing the terrorist in the midst of a terror attack, it makes it hard to believe there is a moderate majority.
