I have noticed a lot of this lately and it is really starting to bother me.
Even if the person asking the question demonstrates a complete lack of Derech Eretz It is not necessary to respond in kind.
And if you find it too difficult to respond without being rude and demeaning, just pass the question up.
Please, let us not lower ourselves to those wishing to those who wish to stir up hate.

It is people such as yourself that need to be removed.

I completely agree with you, but boys will be boys, and Israelis will be Israelis (oh, and anti semites will be anti semites). People simply want to express their feelings and thoughts, but I would say they probably do it too often and too with too much unnecessary schmutz...
I say we either ignore them if it bothers us (as it sometimes does to me), or at other times if you have a good arguement against it, tell them off and let them realize how foolish they really are. It's bad enough that they create a Chilul Hashem, and we have to "help" them out as much as we can so as to stop them.
Other than that, most people who write these posts probably won't be looking at this, so it helps to send them an email and see if they're just plain immature and will be babies about it, or if they'll actually listen and realize their foolishness. =D

Dear, this is the ISRAEL section. Since when are Israelis noted for their Derech Eretz? Not that I don't love Israelis, I'm one myself, but Chutzpa is one of our main character traits. Words like "sorry" "excuse me" and "please" don't exist in our lexicon. That's why we're Sabras - thorny and hard on the outside, soft and sweet on the inside.

let's try to ignore questions like that. i also get pizzed off when they appear, but here, on Y!, unlike at home, i have the choice to ignore them.
this section is supposed to be about travel to israel and deal with information about the country.

I usually don't answer those questions. If they don't get any answers by the time expired they get deleted by Yahoo. If they are disrespectful and offensive they should be reported and they will eventually go somewhere else. The best way is by not answering them.

Totally agree, it is not to our honor to go to the level of these people.

Derech Eretz? A proper way to conduct yourself would be to make the saying "Mavet le aravim" come true. How is my Hebrew?

I see. Sort of like "Turn the other cheek."
It is a practice that the Xtians have abandoned, so Gravtol advocates it for the rest of us?
How so?
