Since then, 41 yrs, much has changed and the U.S. has a black President elect. How did they do it? Violence, attacks? No, mostly demonstrations and especially language, at which they excel. Argument and logic. They were determined and organized, at least in their goals. Israelis live in their own country and behave like second class citizens. They cower. They elect the wrong lineup, again and again, and they accept being tossed around by the U.S. policies. Israel should stand up to those indignities with dignity, a common goal and sense of their own entitlement. First order of the day is organization. The means are law, speech, demanding human respect and calling murder what it is murder, which is not allowed under any law, religion, even the Qu\'ran. Lies and dissembling unaccepta");

AddReply(362806,"to Assaf, #2 - Your comment makes no sense","Jeff","NYC","11/18/08","You begin by comparing the brutality experienced by the Federmans at the hands of the Yassam, a special police force ATTACHED TO THE ISRAELI ARMY, with Arabs being subjected to similar IDF raids. Besides the fact that you totally missed the point the author was trying to make; namely, the Yassam are ostensibely supposed to protect Jews, not brutalize them; the comparison itself is baseless. Were the Federmans hiding any weapons/terrorists under the convenient roof of their \"civilian\" home as your poor, victimized Arabs do? Don\'t think so. Then, you claim that the \"Feldmans\" are a notorious family of outlaws. Buddy, before trying to impress people with your exclusive background knowledge of this family, trying getting their name right. You\'ll have a better chance of people actually believing you then. Lastly, who said the Federmans ever asked for police/IDF protection? An idiotic comment ");

Is there a moral equivalency between Palestinians who overwhelmingly support terror as an alternative to living with Jews and Jews who just want to live in Israel? Your perception is so skewed.");

What a true disaster giving away land that belongs to God. May God grant a leader in Israel who will inquire of the LORD instead of acting like He doesn\'t even exist.");
AddReply(362711,"Israel is ruled by anti-Jews","Irwin Ruff","US","11/18/08","For elucidation on why this occurred, see \"Jewish Agency Center Prevents Jewish Learning\" on today\'s web page. Israel is controlled to a large extent by secular socialist Zionists, who have always been, and still are anti-Judaism. Any Jew who disagrees with them will find himself without a house and probably in the hospital. I\'m surprised that the Federman children weren\'t taken away, on the pretext that they were unfit to raise them. You see, they might raise them to be observant Jews.");

But your article is very clear, and should be sent to all newspapers here in Israel. I\'m definitely sympathetic to the Tor and Federman families and their cause, but it had already slipped from my mind while Beit HaShalom has taken center stage. The Federman & Tor families and what was done to them mustn\'t be allowed to be forgotten. The methods that were used are most likely illegal, and certainly immoral. Is legal action being taken? What else can/should be done?  ");
AddReply(362536,"Won\'t shed a tear. When Arabs are concerned, this strory is common place.","Assaf","NYC","11/18/08","The stories of horrendous treatment by the Israeli security forces is known to almost every Palestinian family who seldom finish the night with only a finger broken and some furniture destroyed. Inflicting terror is the tactic of choice for the Israeli army and settlers ever since the first Intifada. The Feldman\'s, a notorious family of outlaws, has finally tasted their own medicine. I do not condone house demolitions as a punitive measure though and I fully support their right to stay on their farm. However, they should not be assigned any protection from the Israeli army or police. If they wish to live in the midst of a hostile Arab population then they should bear the risk themselves. Maybe that way they will develop a kinder approach to their neighbors.");
