1. and the murder continues
edward ,   las vegas   (08.25.05)
yep, no difference. israeli occupation forces continue their illegal and extra-judicious killing. i'm SURE they really want peace. you people are just plain sick. you murder in the name of 'god' which obviously puts you on the moral low ground. disgusting people you are, condoning continuous murder
2. "Some of the IDF forces have returned to dealing terror"
edward ,   las vegas   (08.25.05)
oh and dealing out terror is what yor occupation army does best. congratulations on more extra judicial murder.
3. edward
Mark ,   Canada   (08.25.05)
Edward, People who access this page are too busy looking at the other news where one person was killed. 4 people killed is not too important since they are Palestinians. The "IDF" is known for terror acts like this one. It is just another day for them.
4. Sharon , Mofaz & Halutz Ruined the IDF's fabric
Adina Kutnicki ,   NJ, US   (08.25.05)
Big deal. What do they want, a cookie? Isn't it their sworn mission to confront the enemies? The last sentence says it all - "this, from now on,(emphasis placed) is the IDF's central mission". Now that they have finished tackling the "Jewish problem", they are onto business as usual, and they feel this needs to be announced to the world. The terror groups are not too afraid anymore. All they have to do is ramp it up a notch, and the Jews will pay the blackmail. Stupid Mofaz, stupid Halutz, you helped Sharon ruin the once vaunted IDF.
5. And the two kids were also armed?
Salameh ,   Gaza   (08.25.05)
Your reporting lacks integrity as you fail to mention that two kids, 14 year old and a 15 year old were also shot and killed. I wonder why you and your hypocrite westren freinds come out crying when a fanatic Goyim-hater God-claimer settlers are evicted out of stolen lands while you and your messed up westren freinds sit there with yellow smiles looking at our kids being murdered for NO REASON except being Palestinian !! Now you tell me who is breaching the ceasefire !! our Blood shedding won't even make any of you even blink, SHAME ON YOU
6. murder, edward?
Howard ,   Pacific Coast, USA   (08.25.05)
Murder is when someone blows up a night club. Eliminating senior members of Islamic Jihad is preventive medicine. Do you listen to the Islamic Jihad people at all? Did you pay any attention to the bombs Islamic Jihad tried to plant during the disengagement? Obviously not. The group continues to carry out terror attacks, and since the PA is unwilling to arrest them for murdering civilians and planning the murder of more civilians, it is perfectly reasonable for the IDF to stop them instead. Islamic Jihad never bothered to maintain any kind of calm anyway. The bomb in Netanya (which was intended to kill innocent civilians) happened during the supposed calm, specifically in order to disrupt said calm.
7. edward, you misunderstand - they were terrorists...
mike ,   usa   (08.25.05)
..so it is completely justified.
8. Do not respond to Edward!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cal ,   Brooklyn,NY   (08.25.05)
all he wants is attention, something he doesn't deserve because of these and past posts that he has posted. Do not respond.
9. END TERROR
SAMUEL BLAIR ,   BOCA RATON USA   (08.25.05)
PEACE WILL COME ONLY WHEN THE ISRAELI ARMY ATTACKS AND ELIMINATES ALL THE TERROR GROUPS. INCLUDING HEZBOLLAH. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY. THE TERRORISTS HAVE DECLARED WAR ON ISRAELIS. ISRAEL MUST ATTACK AND END THE KILLING. STOP PLAYING GAMES. ISRAELIS CAN NOT BELIEVE ARABS. ALWAYS REMEMBER YOM KIPPUR! SHALOM.
10. BAN ANTI-SEMITES!
SAMUEL BLAIR ,   BOCA RATON USA   (08.25.05)
WHY DO U PRINT ITEMS FROM ANTI-SEMITES? THAT IS NOT THER "OTHER SIDE" IT IS PURE ROT! PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THOSE JEW HATERS PUBLICITY. SHALOM
11. What is it with you?
New York Gal   (08.25.05)
Do you hate Jews that much? Israeli's want peace but not at the expense of there lives. They've made a bold step towards peace and the Palestinians have done zilch! Quit blaming the Israeli's for defending themselves....it makes you look stupid!
12. Anti terror operation...
J. Eisner ,   Hackensack, N.J.   (08.25.05)
Congratulations are in order to the IDF - continue to remove the terrorist scum. This action should be done daily till thse terrorist are all eliminated. GREAT JOB !!!!
13. But they're now with their 72 virgins now Edward
Jared ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.25.05)
Edward u cry for them but they're truly ecstatic that they died in combat. Now they get to have their 72 virgins in heaven that they believe they're owed. Oh what a world you live in! Besides if they're armed and they're shooting at the IDF why wouldn't the IDF shoot back. It's not like they walked up to them and summarily shot them point blank in the head like the Saddam loyalists are doing to their own people in Iraq. That's extra-judicial look up in the dictionary and see if a gun fight between parties is considered extra-judicial.
14. Killing terrorists saves lives
Dani ,   Tel Aviv   (08.25.05)
This is why it was generally quiet here for the past 3 years. Ethnically cleansing Jews and rewarding terror only leads to more terror.
15. Odd definition of "terror" (1 and 2)
Shai ,   Israel   (08.25.05)
Would your definition of "terror" include all wars, such as American actions in WWII? How do the IDF's actions differ from those actions? The people killed were combatants, and under all the relevant conventions combatants do not have the right to a trial, and thus, "judicial" procedures aren't relevant. The conflict with these Palestinians is not a civil dispute that is resolved in the courts or by arbitrators, but is rather a war. Give your definition of "terrorism", and tell us how it's different from the usual definitions utilized by the US courts that govern the district you live in. You'll find, I strongly suspect, that Israel's actions were completely legal if you look into it.
16. thank you lDF :) go on
Mıhael ,   lstanbul   (08.25.05)
thank you very much to lDf klll all terrorlsts no glvlng peace to terror cells and thelr devlL Leaders l want to hear 100 terrorlst klll ın one day destroy hamas bastards
17. salameh, why say goyim negatively
AP ,   USA   (08.25.05)
Salameh and others who treat the word "goyim" as if it's a supposed racist connotation of nonjews. For your information, goyim simply means "nations" in hebrew. so in Jewish texts, when referencing the nonJews they were called the other nations - hence the usage of Goyim. so it only means non-Jews and thats it. it just became part of Jewish vocabulary like the hebrew word chutzpa - the word though has ZERO negative connotation, so stop treating it like it does.
18. please educate us edwards...........
dave ,   jerusalem   (08.25.05)
the world is lacking ignorance....by all means keep spewing out your lies. You know the ones that have been fabricated by all the vermin in the world as yourself. It's amazing how after constantly repeating thier own lie one can even start believing it be true. Actually conciously believing it! tell me oh wise one. You are most likely a christian...what do you think the arabs would do to you here if they got the chance? Now how many Jews do you actually know....not met but know. probably not too many huh? If you took the time to open your eyes and intake some of the world you may find out that you have been living a lie. Your choice to make up facts and violently spit them out at Jews goes to show your level of stupidity. Do you know any Israeli soldiers? doubt it. If you did you may actually understand what humanity is. THere is NO OTHER military in the world with the morals of Israel.......it does not exist. you on the other hand are a perfect example of the evil infecting the world. Be carefull what you say it may come back to bite you in the butt!
19. GET out of the WEST BANK
(08.25.05)
Hello? you are on occupied land. Even the US admits so. GET out of there,like you are suppossed to do. WE know you are building and confiscating land as I type, and it is WRONG. STOP killing poeple that are defending their LAND. You are in the wrong.
20. 10
usa   (08.25.05)
You kitty kat, other wise known as a pussy. this debate and full perspective of peoples opinions HAS to be indulged, whether you agree or not. Peace and lives are at stake. All mentalities have to be understood. Dont SILENCE people!!!
21. They had a chance to surrender and they chose to go to hell
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica, CA   (08.25.05)
with 72 virgin pigs to service. The terrorist pig that just killed one man and stabbed another did not give them a chance to surrender. The "palestinians" have less morals than a pig.
22. After Gaza, Time to move the battle to the west bank
Lina ,   East jerusalem   (08.25.05)
23. "The "palestinians" have less morals than a pig."
Salameh ,   Gaza   (08.25.05)
You won;t censor this, but censor me calling him a ***? ah well, those who go down to this level of extremism and hatred are low enough to expose their venom racism to all, and their education and upbringing is daily reflected in their actions and words, SHAME ON THEM.
24. So the IDF did what everyone says they should..
John ,   West Bank, Israel   (08.25.05)
They went in undercover and attempted to arrest the people who where responsible for terrorist acts. The IDF could have dropped a bomb, sprayed the whole scene with machine gun fire, or whatever. They didn't, they did what all of the 'shouldniks' said they ought. The bad guys resisted arrest, others on the scene start a gunfight, and the IDF defended themselves. The IDF did their best to do the right thing,at great risk to their own lives. People died. The IDF didn't fire the first shot. Can you hear this?
25. Sewer talk, as always , Bunnie
(08.25.05)
26. Go ahead
Fadi ,   Miami, USA   (08.25.05)
Keep on killing, the Palestinians will retaliate harshly.
27. shame
Nabulsi   (08.25.05)
Its a shame when elite israeli forces are used to catch and kill Palestinian kids under 15 yrs old. This merely muscel flexing that won't work. Shame on you Israel!
28. 17 - AP: "goyim" is USED as a slur among certain Jews
(08.25.05)
The technical definition of a word doesn't make any difference as to how it is used. Think of some curse words you know that, according to the dictionary, have a certain meaning, but are derogatory if used in a different context.
29. #10
steven ,   france   (08.25.05)
Shame on a country that wishes to defend i'ts citizens???Grow up,These palestinian kids as you say are always put in the front lines,by your coward"freedom fighters",who stay well away from these lines,so when a kid under 15 is killed ,you scream murder.These kids should not be mingling with these terrorists,they should be at school or at home.But unfortunately;your so called "martyrs"prefer to use these kids ,to gain International pity for their cause,but it does'nt work any more.So it's not shame on Israel it's shame on the Palestinian people for letting these murderes do what they please ,with your chidren.and last but not least,the way the IDF dealt with the withdrawal,is a lesson that all arab nations should take in and acquire,when dealing with their own citizens.,then maybe the world will be a better place to live in.and there would be less children under 15 killed during conflict.
30. Shame
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (08.25.05)
It's a shame when Arabs give their children weapons and promises of 72 virgins for murdering Jews. Shame on you Arabs!
