Women's groups hail Katsav indictment    Yael Branovsky
1. kastav

2. "clear message to men"
I am happy for all the women of Yisra'el, however I would like to say that "all men" do not need this message. A man would not do this. He is a piece of slime if he is guilty. A true man does not behave this way toward women. A man treats a lady with respect and offers protection, not abuse.

3. rape is a crime. Instigating a crime is also a crime
rape is a crime. Instigating rape should also be a crime. And no I am not saying "women ask for it." (that is stupid and disgusting) But how about taking on personal responsibility? How about not acting like a frecha? How about not wearing clothes which send the wrong message (that the "victim" is sexually available to) men? This is why we tell young girls be careful of what you wear/act.

4. If King David had been indicted for raping Uriah's wife,
BatSheva, Israel would have lost their greatest King since David was a man after God's own heart. Instead, the Lord slayed David's first child by BatSheva and took from David his closeness to the Lord for many years. Better for Mr. Katsav to face a trial than for him to lose a child like David did. David's sin in numbering the people resulted in a plague that killed a third of the people of Israel. When leaders sin, they need to consider the consequences to the whole nation. Was the Second Lebanon War a result of the sins of the leaders? Is the shelling of Southern Israel the consequence of sins of the leaders or the people? God hates sodomy and wanton eyes. Put the homos back into the closet and adorn the women with modest eyes, and maybe the Lord will stop the shelling from enemies.

6. DO NOT INCLUDE "ALL" MEN
why speak to ALL men in general. this is an individual case, so treat it as so. i as a real man amquite offended by your insinuations.

7. #3 some questions
How about not having an affair with the man you accuse of "rape"? How about not inviting your "rapist" to your son's Bar Mizvah? How about only remembering you were "raped" after the "rapist" refused to give you a cushy job?

Rape is a hate crime and an assault. It is not a sexual crime only. If women ran around stark naked it still is no excuse to assault them. REAL MEN TREAT WOMEN WITH HONOR AND RESPECT. Only a pig would do this crime.

9. dressing immodestly isn't asking to be raped
women particulary teens all over the world do this unfortunately.Why can't 'some' men-not all control those vile desires treat women respectfully? Israel thankfully doesn't live under Islamic rule where women if not covered will be killed by so called honour killings! Not ultra Orthodox but agree with some seperation of women from men to a certain extent only! Definately not all their restrictive rulings.. Modestly dressed Jew. Shalom & Happy Purim

10. there is something called blindness that strikes a society
when its always looking inward. the world will see this in a diferent way than our preception here.an aqutial could be worse that a conviction /its society on trial something hard for any people to do /my heart goes out to the people of israel .this is much more related to the days of purim than to womans international day.
