There are huge red signs all over Judea and Samaria prohibiting Jews from traveling on roads that pass Arab villages, while Arabs are allowed to drive freely on all the roads in the area. In fact, I face such a sign each time I exit Efrat, prohibiting me to drive to Bet Lechem pointing out that the Arabs will kill us if we do.

They claim to hate the violence, but they feed the violence. They claim they want justice, but they create injustice. They claim to hate terrorism and are shocked when it happens, but in fact they are supporting terrorism with their words. So long as they continue with their self righteous indignation, there will be hatred and violence not only in Israel, but wherever people live. People, get your own houses in order so that we can get ours in order without the constant bombardment of hatred and violence, sometimes resulting in murderous attacks.

And never looked back. By the way, did you happen to bring The Panama Canal with you? We could sure use that here.

I just got here too and I'm not a religious Jew either. But, like you, I love Israel and I'm finally home! We need more Jews from everywhere and every kind to come home! Glad you are here to add your "dos centavos."

Ii took photos in Jaffa Rd of the new lgiht rail as we stood shoulder to shoulder with women in burkas. we saw the tram approach and I was so impressed that the signage changed on it every few seconds to announce its destination in Hebrew, Arabic and English! So which part of that is apartheid exactly? especially considering that there have already been several incidents perpetrated by arab youth and they are still given freedom to ride the rails and not checked as they get on.They walk around the cities of Israel as freely as the rest of the international world and no one bats an eye! Let alone throw stones. Only they throw stones and get aaway with. Wrote our car off once in a cememtery no less….no respect!
