Israel will get a phone call from masta bush and immediately fold under pressure and go back to the status quo of accpetabel number of dead Jews for this phony peace. Weak leaders who appease the enemy rather than defeat them always capitulate .

The last paragraph in this horrid article speaks to the ineffectual and disaster of a policy that Israel has regarding the terror groups. Hey Pals, don't worry your terror heads too much. In a few days time all your killing will be forgiven, and the "harsh" measures will be lifted. Afterall, "concessions" are the order of the diplomatic day. Who cares about a few dead Jewish bodies anyway? Certainly not this corrupt Israeli gov't.

the time has come and , palestinians should live free or all die , if you band there cars they will walk or use donkeys when some one is ready to die for freedom of his people nothing matters to him , may allah give them victory soon .

I live with my wife and baby son in Gush Etzion. I'm genuinely worried that once again residents of the Gush will become sitting ducks for Arab terrorism. The route of the fence will decrease our security (esp between the tunnels) and i'm scared for my life and the lives of my family and neigbours. What can we do? I feel helpless knowing that this is only the beginning. The simple journey to work or the supermarket will become a game of Russian Roulette - there are many lives to be lost and we feel sickened by that reality. What can we do? What should we do? Is there no oneone that will help us? Are we to be the next Gush Katif? Isolated cut off settlements with a wall that does nothing to prevent attacks. The concrete by the tunnels becoming Kissufim - Ghettoising 40,000 plus people? And for what end? Sigh.

NO MORE DEFENCE. Organuze and attack.

WHATEVER MEASURES THAT NEED TO BE TAKEN TO PROTECT JEWISH LIVES MUST BE TAKEN. TAKE BACK JEWISH GAZA AND NORTHERN SAMARIA IMMEDIATELY. Rewarding murderers of Jews with Jewish land is evil. My condolences to the families. The following is part of a news report by Michael Widlanski: PALESTINIAN MEDIA AND OFFICIALS SAY ABBAS'S OWN FATAH KILLED 'SETTLERS' BY MICHAEL WIDLANSKI 16 October 2005 Voice of Palestine Radio, the official voice of Mahmoud Abbas's Palestinian Authority, declared Sunday night that both of today's attacks on Israelis were carried out by members of the Fatah organization headed by PLO leader Abbas. "Both armed attacks were carried out by the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades which are part of the Fatah Movement," asserted Voice of Palestine, which, along with the other Palestinian media stressed that the attacks were on "mustawtaneen"-the Arabic word for settlers. The murders were not condemned by the official Palestinian media or any Palestinian officials who have generally called such previous attacks on "settlers" a legitimate form "resistance" to occupation. Dr. Abbas and his aides also did not condemn the kidnap murder three weeks ago of a Jerusalem man, Sasson Nuriel, who was tortured by Palestinian terrorists from the Hamas organization and then made to read a "confession" that was filmed and distributed on Hamas websites. The attacks have occurred during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan which is often a time set aside not only for penitence but also for jihad, holy war."

Let the terrorists come on a burro (donkey). The terrorists can not escape fast enough. They do not want to die, just kill as many innocent Jews as possible.

wanted list. Those who don't surrender at the first call, shoot, shoot, shoot.

this measures of war crimes of collective punishment against illegaly occupied Palestinian people have been in practice for the past five years and yeilded nothing but more hate and resentment to the fascist Zionists and their herds of settlers...more will mkae us more determind to fight back. you only hurting the weak and innocent, exactly like any tyrant cowardish regime to get back the resistance. Shame and more shame on israel

“We demand that the Palestinian Authority move from the talking phase and actively work against the terror organizations.” This statement may be attributed to either (1) a broken record or (2) a parrot.

I'm so sorry that you are now living in fear. I will pray that you and your family members stay safe.

Of course, my heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims(HY"D) but I hope (in vain, of course) that this tragedy will not be used as an excuse by various "generals" from the US to go to town on Palestinian- and Islam-bashing. I also hope that the Palestinian people will lose the patience with the terrorists as happened in Aza a few weeks ago because THEY are the ones making their lives difficult, not we or our Army.

The same stupid and primitive Israeli response- collective punishement- which will only harm the ordinary hard working Palestinians and fuel more Palestinian anger!

Israel should understand that this killing exists due to it’s occupation of West Bank. Palestinians had been occupied since 57 years and its time for Israel to understand that it should go back to the 1967 borders. The Palestinians had tried with Israel all kinds of peace talks to free themselves to no success. I believe that they have been left with no other alternatives. See what happened in Gaza, finally and after 57 years Israel recognized that its occupation was wrong and withdrew from there. There will soon be no more killing in Gaza from neither side. Israel should do the same thing in Palestine and let the Palestinians live their life free of its military occupation.

i agree totally with michael. i have a novel, far reaching idea...why dont the palestinians amongst themselves stop the terrorism and then there would be no need for road blocks,etc. pre-first intifada the palestinians had complete freedom of movement, even to enter israel and work all over. there was a flow of arabs into israel and jews could go to palestinian areas and spend money there, thus helping the economy. but the palestinian right to freedom of movement has to be lower than a persons right to life. its just sheer stupidity as well as evil to expect to let a person be killed and suffer no reprocussions. the terrorists do not have a mark tattooed on them, so noone can tell who they are. what the hell are the israeli government supposed to do, and dont give me 'end the occupation rubbish'? also, everyone talking about jew only roads, what will they say when there is a road from gaza to the west bank when it is only for arabs???? we're not allowed to use the term security!!

Israel jumps to collective punishment on Palestinians living in their own land and not in Israel. All this is going to frustrate and encourage more people to resist and therefore more israelis and palestinians will get killed. Stupid Israel

You are pethetic and a thief. I have no sympathy for people like you. Stop steeling more land and go home. Then you will be safe and we can build peace. GO HOME and stop steeling

When a West Bank settler shot and killed several Palestinians during the disengagement, there were no restrictions placed on Jewish settlers from driving their cars or moving around the West Bank.

Israel must take back Jewish Gaza and northern Samaria immediately. Israel is on the frontlines in global jihad and is our first defense against global jihadists. Michael Widlanski, March 29, 2005, reported: "official Palestinian media said that Mahmoud Abbas's PLO, Hamas and Islamic Jihad had agreed in principal to full unification with all sides recognizing the PLO's 1974 "Strategy of Stages" document that sets out a phased program for Israel's destruction through a combination of diplomacy and violence." Abbas was Arafat's partner for over 40 years. Arafat explained the peace process on Jordanian TV shortly after Oslo. The PLO strategy adopted in 1974: "Since we cannot defeat Israel in war, we do this in stages. We take any and every territory we can of Palestine, and establish sovereignty there, and we use it as a springboard to take more. When the time comes, WE CAN GET THE ARAB NATIONS TO JOIN US FOR THE FINAL BLOW AGAINST ISRAEL." Shortly after the 1967 Six Day War, the American Joint Chiefs of Staff submitted their report requested by the U.S. government. Their report stated ISRAEL CAN ONLY BE DEFENSIBLE IF IT RETAINS JUDEA, SAMARIA, GAZA AND THE GOLAN.

Global jihad is empowered as Islamofascists receive amazing help in the jihad against Israel from the international community. The entire world will pay the price of an Islamic terror state in Israel. THERE NEVER WAS AN ARAB COUNTRY OF PALESTINE. Jerusalem was NEVER the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. JERUSALEM IS MENTIONED OVER 800 TIMES IN THE BIBLE, not once in the Koran. Around 1948, Arabs violently ETHNICALLY CLEANSED about one million Jews from Arab countries. Arab governments seized the land, homes, bank accounts, businesses and assets of the Jews. Most of the Jewish refugees fled to Israel. THERE MUST NOW BE A JUST SETTLEMENT FOR THE JEWISH REFUGEES AND THEIR DESCENDANTS-COMPENSATION IN LAND AND FINANCES. In 1922, Britain illegally gave MOST OF PALESTINE-80% TO THE ARABS. The area became Jordan, giving the Arabs an Arab Palestinian state on JEWISH land. IT WAS ETHNICALLY CLEANSED OF JEWS. This area is part of ancient, Biblical Israel, and along with present-day Israel, including Judea, Samaria, Gaza and the Golan was recognized by the League of Nations as the Jewish homeland. In 1948, Egypt invaded Gaza and ethnically cleansed ALL Jews. In 1948, Jordan invaded Judea-Samaria (West Bank) and east Jerusalem and ETHNICALLY CLEANSED ALL JEWS. Jordan, opposing G-D DESTROYED 58 synagogues in Jerusalem. In 1967 when Israel won Islam's religious war of aggression against it, Jews returned to the areas of their homeland they had been ethnically cleansed from for 19 years. Islamofascists DECEITFULLY call this return "occupation". Under international law, territories are considered "occupied" only when taken in an act of aggression which does not apply to Israel. Judea, Samaria and Gaza are not 'occupied territories' according to international law because they were not taken from any foreign sovereign. ALL of the Jewish land, homes, properties and businesses stolen from the Jews in the 1948 Islamic invasion must be returned to the Jews IMMEDIATELY
