lovlygirl1996 Hey, moron, everyone has a right to comment -- especially against hate-filled idiots like you who come here to post nasty comments. You are too hateful and stupid to enjoy this video. You don't appreciate the music or dancing. You just want to spit out ugly, dirty insults. You seem to be a warped religious fanatic who likes to condemn other people. Fuck you. You don't know shit about religion, music, clothes or other people -- so shut the fuck up, you intolerant jackass.
lovlygirl1996 You didn't come here to watch the video. You came here just to post a nasty, hateful comment. How childish. You think you're better than her -- just because of her clothes! HA. How stupid. How superficial. Your only understanding of religion seems to be your hatred and judgment of other people -- people who you don't even know! Mind your own business. If you don't like Haifa, don't watch her videos. You don't need to run around posting hateful, stupid comments. Get lost, nitwit.
lovlygirl1996, You are mean and hateful. You have no respect for other people. Your REAL religion is hatred. name-calling and condemnation of other people. You want her to go to hell just because of the clothes she wears. What a stupid, horrible comment. You are vicious. Why do you care what kind of clothes she wears. Is that YOUR business? NO. Mind your own business! Stop judging other people. Look at your own faults (disrespect, hate, etc.), instead of attacking her. YOU are the "disgrace."

Yes, freedom and modernity is much more than wearing bikinis. Did someone say it wasn't?
