I was definitely there. Despite the fact that I am christian, I was told by the counter-protestors that I was going to hell. I don't see how respecting the sanctity of all human life condemns one to hell. Whatever, it was fun.

seeing the pictures from this event stunt me completely.
I'm an isreali peace activist (and was born jewish), and you would never ever see that kind of demo here. ultra orthodox jews and muslims?? the only time they united was when they denounced the world pride parade in jerusalem. but that union was because of hate.
here orthodox jews wouldn't even protest along with non-religious jews.

The only war crime that Israel commits is that Israel defends herself.
Israel embarrasses her neighbors in the fact that she not only survives but thrives.
Israel does not hide behind women and children. She does hide in hospitals or schools.
Where are the nations that have stood against Israel in the past.
They no longer exist!
This will pass and there will be peace and Israel will continue to thrive.
Golda Myer once said there will only be peace when they love their children more than they hate us.
But, as you know the rights of women and children are non existent in every country in the Middle east with the exception of Israel.
Real Jews think ! They don't let themselves get caught up in the current wave of stupidly.

"But, as you know the rights of women and children are non existent in every country in the Middle east with the exception of Israel."
That is the most retarded thing I have ever heard in my life! Knowing from your ignorant comment, you obviously have never been to any of those "Middle Eastern Countries" except for Israel.
shulamit0903 (58 months ago | reply)
Retarded!
We are using developmentally delayed these day but, then you are probably not in the medical field!
You are right I have only been In Israel it would be difficult, if not dangerous, for an American Jewish Woman to travel in the Middle east outside of Israel.
My information comes from Arabic and Muslim women in America.
Such as Asra Nomani for one Have you read any of her books? You should!
I understand that the Arabic and Muslim countries are still having a problem with HONER KILLINGS, FGM, CHILD BRIDES, In some country's women and children are starving to death because there widowed mothers are not allowed to work and what about the deplorable health care that is provided to the majority of women in the middle east.
This is not what Islam is about.
Maybe I should have said ALMOST NO RIGHTS. Would you have liked that better?

Most of the people responding here (including the photographer) are hypocrites. Israel behaves much better than the Palestinians and Lebanese. Our only crime is defending ourselves from Muslim slaughter.

Jews admitting that their country is wrong ??? I'm actually impressed. Now it's time for our government to admit that they need to get out of middle eastern affairs.

"Steel flame", I'm sorry to inform you, but we are here to stay for the right reasons. Maybe you'll get out and mind your own Detroit business, how about that?
Gareth Harper (53 months ago | reply)
Jews admitting that their country is wrong ?
Strange comment steel. Jews no more have their own country than those of other faiths. But yes it's a shame people today don't seem able to distinguish between Jews and Zionist Jews.
It's not that unusual, thankfully, to see Jewish people protest against the abhorrent daily crimes of Israel.
shulamit0903 (52 months ago | reply)
Once again the only crime Israel commits is defending herself !
I guess it it a abhorrent crime and embarrassment (to some) that ISRAEL has been able to survive ( as a country) for the past 60 years!
Get over it though because once again Israel is here to stay!
To all the self hating Jews out there with all your negitive B/S about Israel~~~get a enema!!!!

Defending from Israel's perspective:
by demolishing & destroying, bombing & shelling, killing, attacking & injuring innocent civilians women, children, elders, public infrastructures, schools, homes, building Berlin walls all over Palestinian territory, set up obstacles & checkpoints all over Palestinian territory, set a blockade over electricity, fuels, foods, water, sanitation, economic activities, traveling ban in & out, violating & ignoring United Nation's resolutions, International Court of Justice decisions, International Humanitarian laws, International Human Rights, Geneva Conventions & more
Dun make a joke! You actually not defending or retaliating but in reality actually committing unjustified, indiscriminate, inhumane, immoral, illegal, actions & policies.
They actually live by law of e jungle aka survival e fittest which only animal subscribe they dun deserved to be called civilized people or human. They live in a state of fantasy which they claimed e "chosen land" surrounded by walls, military installations, state-of-e-art military technologies & arsenals, including jets, weapon of mass destruction, naval ships, spy drones, merkava, etc
But still in reality they actually live feeds by fear, suspicions & hatred
to e extent denying e truth & prescribed to Machiavelli's doctrine of end justified e means. All of those actions stated earlier is nothing but to them important to maintain their superiority, survival of state of fantasy they lived. Israel is a state who accept no peace but war since it's creation.

read the Bible... Israel is for the Jews.. and also if you read the Bible you will read where God tells the Jews to cross the Jordan and kill everyone there for the land is theirs.. well the palestinians were spared.. now they have to deal with the problem. Israel has the right to defend herself
Gareth Harper (50 months ago | reply)
I need to correct my previous comment. I now understand that many Zionist Jews as well as non-Zionist Jews oppose Israel's abhorrent current policies regarding the West Bank, Gaza strip and the daily abuse of Palestinian human rights.
This is just one of the many Jewish organisations campaigning for peace and Palestinian human rights. www.jfjfp.org/about.htm
Again great photo Danny.
shulamit0903 (49 months ago | reply)
The human rights of the Palestinian people are violated by their own fellow Arabs.
The leaders of the Palestinian people have stole just about every cent of international aid ever given to the Palestinian people and in doing so have enforced poverty.
Daily, and without fail violence through propaganda is promoted.
The Arab nations have isolated the Palestinian people and have made them a pariah.
The Palestinian people are lied to and made pawns in their deadly and evil game.
There have been many times that I have wished that we could have been less harsh towards the Palestinian people but,
What can be done ?
What can be expected.
We will defend ourselfs!
The violence towards Israel needs to stop.
The Palestinian people living in Israel have a far greater standered of living than anywhere else in the middle east.
Since 1996, Palestinians have been asked in polls which democracy and governments they most admire, Israel came in top in every survey (at times receiving over 80% approval ratings)
Gee why is that???
The Palestinian people are given and ACTUALLY recive more aid from Israel than any other country in the world.
Truly I believe most Israelis would give up every inch of disputed lands for a lasting and enduring peace.
Hopefully some day the Arab nations will allow that to happen.

"israel" = occupied palestine, palestine belong to palestinians, israel had been created on the massacres and exile of palestinians, there is no "israely" city where wasnt an arab city before, sionist only changed the names...
justice will come, and justice for all oppressed, no mather who they are, and sionist will pay their crimes...

Stupid people give silly and unreasonable comment.
The only crime that Israel did is to attack Muslims country over and over again intentionally.
What have the Muslims done to make the Jews furious.
Jews did it with full hatred and abhorrence. Israel got all the best weapons and tanks to start war and Palestian use small stones to hurled them.
Jews is nothing more than a menacing country who blames every Muslim country for their mistakes and terrible blunder.
Whoever believe a shit from 'shulamit0903', I think its better to ask yourself, how reliable is she making such comment.
To brush up the History, Israel has no country. They stole it from Palestine. Innocent-looking people with a bad heart.
Next time, before reading any newspaper article, be sure where does the source came from. I've read an article today and it came from an Israel ambassador of my country. Innocent-looking person with a bad heart has motive.
SAY NO TO DISCRIMINATION

"REAL JEWS DENOUNCE ISRAEL'S CRIMES"
What does it mean REAL JEW in that context ???
Does it mean those Jews who are circumcised ??? Those who don't eat pork ???
DECENT PEOPLE ( NOT ONLY JEWS) DENOUNCE EVERY CRIME THAT IS AGAINST INNOCENT CIVILIANS WHETHER IT IS AGAINST PALESTINIANS OR JEWS. THAT INCLUDES THE CRIMES OF THE HAMMAS AS WELL !!!

Why does no one protest the constant terror attacks by the Arabs? Are they special? There is no Palestine. Arabs were kicked out of their true home land - Jordan - and no other Arab country will have the Arabs from the Israeli homeland. Take the oil from muslims and you find they are still living in the 8th century.

The current so-called Jews in Israel now are imposters they take away the land from the original Jews from bible days are black people with woolly hair which are now scattered in Ethiopia, America, Egypt and the Caribbean these are the true Jews which came from the lineage of Abraham, Isaac ,Jacob ,King David and King Solomon who are all black people...........
Jamrock14 (3 weeks ago | reply)
These imposters are the red neck warriors from Europe who conquer the true Jews and take their land, wealth, customs and culture and now calling them self Jews. this is why so much blood shed in the land and the fighting will not stop until Yahweh return to mother earth!!!.........
Jamrock14 (3 weeks ago | reply)
Now the Catholics and a few other churches presenting the world with a image of a white man and call him Jesus, King David and King Solomon are black Jews from bible days and if Jesus Christ came straight from the lineage of King David which are the true black Jews of Israeli how comes they showing the world a portrait of a white Jesus??? and deceiving the people go back thru history and the true will come out....
