Does the bill apply only to Mosques or to Synagogues too? ...the bill should apply equally.

SKA-REW that!

Israel is the Jewish homeland, "The Promised Land". They don't need any filthy murdering moslems and their hideous, raucous mosks.

What do you think this is...the USA?

That's about the only thing one can agree on with regards to the Middle East.

fairness is always relevant.

I'm glad you think so. Now let's hear your thoughts on the fact that churches are banned in many Muslim countries (including Saudi Arabia). Not just a call to prayer... the whole other religion. Would you consider that "fair"?

Not at all. So if Muslim countries are unfair to their citizens then that somehow gives Israel the right to be unfair its citizens? That's some kind of logic.

One of the comments on the article said:

This article is in error. The bill relates only to the first and last calls to prayer, which can be as early as 4:30 in the morning and 10:00 in the evening during the summer.

During the day, when the ambient noise is greater, the calls to prayer aren't a problem. In recent months, a number of mosques upgraded their sound systems to a level that the noisiest discotheques would be proud of, and play the call to prayer at full volume.

Holding others to a higher standard for the sake of principle(at least that’s supposedly the reason, there is more than enough reason to suspect otherwise) is what has gotten the West to its pretty pass in dealing with Islam, because Islam doesn’t play by the same rules. Just as they use American democratic means to chip away at democracy.

I daresay the Israelis, having much longer experience of this than we have, understand that their survival is more important than upholding this particular abstract principle, because it’s suicidal when only one side does it.

Should the Israelis commit suicide to satisy the liberal West’s demand for “fairness”?

And applying noise laws fairly is committing suicide? That's some kind of logic.

America was fighting muslims 150 years before modern Israel existed.

Israeli President Shimon Peres has said he is ashamed of the bill and others like it. “This is simply a march of folly … I am personally ashamed there are attempts being made to pass such laws.” Israel doesn’t “have to raise the ire of all the Muslims in the Arab world against us”, Peres said.

In the early 1930's with Hitler seeking election in the waning days of the Weimar Republic, there existed a now nearly forgotten, obscure political entity known as "Jews for Hitler" (I kid you not.).

"Jews for Hitler" afflicted with the same self-deluding left-wing liberal mindset we have today as practiced by the DemoRats, supported the Nazi political plank in so far as it related to the national, economic, demographic policies the Nazis vowed to implement, considering the genocidal vehemence against Jews as mere political boisterousness. Well, we all know how that turned out.

Regarding the unbridled revulsion I have towards the mentally-deranged Shimon Peres and those of his eternally-damned ilk, I've always felt them to be the political heirs of those like "Jews for Hitler", who in embracing their enemy only serve to expedite their very own demise, self-destruction.

By the way, Hillary is buying into the lie of “women for peace” as negociators. A communist loophole to disarm women while making them believe they are worth it amongst democrates.

She is obviously a hater of women much as islamics who call themselves pro-christianity as they disarm them and call them erroneous.

i’m speaking of the principle of fairness, as you are. How far should they go with this? They seem to believe it’s in their best interests to be “unfair”, and I think they’re the best judges of that.

Yes, I know about Tripoli, enslavement, etc. It’s not the same thing that the Israelis are dealing with, since their resumption as a nation.

As do the muzzies. Like I said, two sides of the same coin.

Hardly. The Israelis aren’t sending suicide bombers , including the mentally retarded, amongst civilians in order to kill them. They’re not getting the world’s support (including a sickening Nobel “Peace” prize for a terrorist murderer) as they promise repeatedly to annihilate a whole people. The Israelis aren’t sending men to American flight schols where they don’t need to learn to land a plane because they intend to kill themselves and every innocent passenger and 3000 innocent civilians.

Are you for real?

Clowns should be thankful the Isrealis don’t blow the mosques up.

You really see moral equivalency between what the Israelis and the Muslims are doing? You truly equate the power of one tiny nation surrounded by an ocean of those fanatically desiring their destruction, no less so than Hitler and his Nazis did?
