  6. Here come the suicide bombs again

  7. Zionist Fascist Netanyahu needs to go.

  8. The govt is simply not cool

  9. IMHOTEP! IMHOTEP! IMHOTEP!

  10. This is the result of the US blindly supporting Israel's apartheid. One day, our kids and our grandkids, will wonder how we, as human beings allowed the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians to go on for so long. Wrong is wrong, doesn't matter who is doing it. Shame on your ignorance, US, UK, UN.

  11. This isn't even headline news in L.A. which has millions of Israeli residents

  12. The promised land belongs to the people of Israel. It is written in the TORAH,new bible, quran.If you don't believe in GOD than i will let you know that jews were in this land way before any other nation or religion.
    I spotted many Americans commenters in here. I suggest you to look at the closest mirror to see your ugly face with your double standard and remind yourself how you took over the land from the Indigenous peoples by slaughtering them.

  13. Our judicial system is lazy and the legislature is made up of 120 loudmouths. Israel is not turning into a dictatorship – we are not organized or disciplined enough as a nation to run a dictatorship. Our laws are written in an amateurish way that allows for too much interpretation and this regularly causes problems. Israel's Human Dignity and Liberty foundational law of 1992, was written so poorly, it didn't bother to specify basic rights like freedom of speech, Association and religion and just encapsulated all of these rights under the term "dignity". With time "dignity" became so vague that anything could be put under it and the courts were the only one who could interpret what does "dignity" mean. A few years ago there was a crisis of immegrants from Eritreat who overwhelmed the south of Tel aviv (the # of immegrants was equal to 13% of tel aviv's population). Any action to deport them was blocked because "dignity" . With the government paralyzed by the courts many Israelis were left to deal with the crisis by themselves. This and many more cases created a lot of negative feelings toward the Judiciary System, the results of which you're seeing now.

  14. Free Israel 🇮🇱

  15. Please help us! Jews and Arabs wants to go exist!!!! Help us stay a democracy and escape Netanyahu !

  16. Always western countries are blind on Israel government crimes even on its people

  17. Same fascist government in place in sri lanka.
    Junta government scoundrel.
    Democracy is insane

  18. Please protect Palestinians

  19. An Israeli politician saying something that the Nazis would have said about the Jews in a bygone era, NOW we really have seen everything 🥲

  20. That unfair law could make jews fair targets worldwide 🙂

  21. US should stayy out of Israel! Just wipe out villages in zone C! all the US wasted money!
