"How can you take these words out of context?"

With a great deal of denial and backpedalling.

[azureline**]

not only "taken out of context" but she stands by what she said?

Time she hung up her comedy hat because she is no longer funny.

[icyfroth]

She never really was IMO

[azureline**]

I don't find her funny either but lots of people do, apparently

[channys_mum]

Was she ever funny?  I never thought so.  I would rather turn off the tv than watch her anyway.

Only murderers deserve to be dead, and those that give the orders for murder of course.

She actually said: "They were told to get out, and they did not, so it is their fault, they deserve to be dead"  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Some people got as little as 15 minutes notice before their neighborhood was flattened.  I would like to know why would anybody think that to make hundreds of thousands of people homeless is OK.  Not to mention, where exactly did they suppose to go?  UN schools maybe?

I know that if I as told to get out, and when I came back there was nothing left, I would have this strange urge to lob some rockets back.  And I am normally rather non aggressive person.

 her comedy hat is in being restretched to get rid of the wrinkles

Oh the double standard is unbelievable.  Look at whats happening to people that dare to criticise Israelis ie; Mike Carlton

How come people like her get away with saying such horrendous and shameful things? 

She should be forced to publically apologise and made to travel to Gaza to do 100 hours community service...

Yeah, I just watched her on Israeli television, she's a shocker.

Mike Carlton got out of hospital this morning 'Pneumonia' someone with a Jewish surname tweeted that it was a shame it didn't finish him off. He's copped terrible abuse for speaking his mind.
