that Jews supposedly attacked a church. Why? Jews don't have any beef with Christinas. We are the closest community. Forget about Muslims. But what also disturbs me very much, that the crowd prevented ambulances from reaching the injured. Now that really makes me mad! Throwing detonators are no reason to let people bleed to death!! There must be some more to the story. It is too fishy!

they were, in fact Jews, this is unacceptable and beyond stupid.

First of all this is a detestable act. I am completely bewildered as to why these people did what they did. What was the motive? Why would any Jew attack people in a place of worship? This is not the Jewish way at all. Could there be more going on than meets the eye? I can't believe this was religiously motivated, as Jews have never been taught hatred of other religions {those which recognize the lord Hashem}. As much as I can't understand Xtianity, I could never attempt to harm any xtian. Hashem, please shine your wisdom on this situation, don't let your servants stumble in the darkness... Baruch Hashem...

First;This is not the picture of the annuciation church... second; why do u mean to show the worst act of the Arabs in everything even if they are the ones attacked?? It is not the whole story.. check more and give more better details...

i'm jew,so i know how jews behave,and i'm very surprised if,really these 3 people attacked the church.i don't understand what would be their interest in doing that??but,if they are really jews,so it's the stupidest jews i've ever heard in my life about...(i'm very zionist,but there is dumbs everywhere).but i hope that jews didn't behave like thousands of goyim around the world who did worst to our synaguogues....the police must inquire,maybe these 3 crazy are muslims disguised like pilgrims who wants the christians to think that they are jews,to put the mess between us and the christians...we'll see later.

We shouldn’t be surprised that the madness and fanaticism that exists in the Moslem world, is among us as well; as we always news. In our situation it far less grave, but grave enough. This particular case is also incredibly stupid.

If you look at the dozens of other sites and papers that have reported this article, all state that the identity of the attackers is unknown. Except of course ynet which, in typical self hating fashion, blames the the "jooos". Could it be that the writer of the article, ALI WAKED knows something the rest of the world doesn't?

What Christian and Muslim they are stupid Palestinians let them all burn in hell. I support those three very much just like I supported baruch goldstein. Israel is for the Jews only and the rest must be burned

It was crazy, man.

now , the israeli media will call them unstable people, or blame it on the moslems. where is the christians to defend their church.

why support a 'self hating' site by posting here then? i agree, the details are murky and i'm sure there's a bigger story buried within, but how does it serve the truth by immediately denying the fact that jews may've been responsible? that's reflexively paranoid.. i'd suggest you wait for more information.

these people need to be punished severely for this act. It is no different then when a muslim does it to Israelis. These people were obviously sick in the head.

If they are, I srongly condemn this idiotic attack. I hope they are severely punished. The last thing we need is for us to drop down to the level of terrorists.

Whoever committed this barbaric, crazy act, MK Barakeh's reaction is also criminal-- “This act proves that terror groups of settlers and the extreme Right feel free to commit their crimes in the occupied territories and against the Arab population in Israel." Mentioning "settlers" is a bigoted statement against the 200,000 Jews who live Judea and Samaria and the Golan and are mainly a law-abiding community that includes many outstanding individuals. If Barakeh was not an Arab making a bigoted statement against a group of Jews, the bigotry would be noticed and he would not get away with it.

Listen to yourselves, you are all a bunch of either jews or jew appologists. Why are you so shocked about Jewish Terrorism? Havnt they been doing this and far worse to Palestinians for 50 years now ? JEWS INVENTED TERRORISM, we muslims just got the media against us. Just becasue you dont hear what these people do, doesnot mean they dont do it. One of the dumbest comments was by one of the jews who claims may be these were mulsims disguised as jews well may be the Jews were disguised as muslims in 9/11 as well ? How stupid.

"maybe these 3 crazy are muslims disguised like pilgrims who wants the christians to think that they are jews,to put the mess between us and the christians..." Oh please stephane, are you so blind that you think jews can do no wrong? The mossad motto is "by way of deception, make war". It is the jewish way to imitate others to create animosity towards them, stop trying to project your way of thinking onto other nationalities.

Jews don't have any beef with Christians? Well they killed 6 million jews... I wouldnt be surrprised if the jewsih right-wing starts this onslought once they wipe out the Muslim Arab population.

How can you be so surprised at this? I suggest you also read ancient history, particularly of Alexandria and of Palestine. The Romans didn't exile the diaspora for no reason.

Israeli TV reports two people: a nutty Jewish guy and his nutty Christian wife.

the husband is a jew they are well known to the the police

Well I'm surprised that you're surprised. Actually, you are misinformed, and I'm especially not surprised that those who express shock and disbelief on this form are NOT from Israel (Stephane, france; J, london; Jane, probably not Israel). If you lived in our Christian community you would not be shocked or the least bit surprised. Jewish soldiers treat us as badly as they treat the Palestinian Muslims. The checkpoints are set up for Christians too, the street raids come in Christian streets, the Apaches and F-16's fly over Christian homes, all the devastation of the occupation comes down hard on us Christians as well, just because we are Arab and Palestinian. Please Jews of the outside world, you should know these facts.

When the Palestinian moslems invaded the 'christian' church in Bethlehem they took hostages and defecated and urinated and trashed this church.They also took their weapons in and showed no respect. So ,if the provication in Nazereth is just some forecrackers ,lets keep things in prespective. The Arab Christian's and Moslems will find any reason to riot and blow things out of context for reason to attack Israel and the Jews .Their hate and evil intent is clear as their first words were 'kill the Jews" for something much less offensive than the Bethlehem church attack was.

Watch for revelations that the Shabak was involved. Isn't it a coincidence that 3 weeks before the election that "crazy right wingers" decide to attack a Church, of all places?? Isn't it another coincidence that Ezra was right nearby to vilify/crucify these "crazy right wingers"??

The Church should be a Jewish shrine and not a heretic Christian monument.

Sources are now saying that the two women were Christian while the man was a Jew. Still, Yedioth continues to print that all of them were Jewish. Not that it makes much of a difference, terrorists are terrorists no matter what but Yedioth should be better than that.

All of you write while showing doubt that Jews can do this ! How about the Bolsheviks (remember Lenin & Trotsky, both Jews) and they murdered millions of Christians...or the instigation of the Ottomans towards the Armenians, etc. Wake up...to reality

I agree that it is bewildering that any Jewish person would do this thing. I, as a Christian, believe that my Lord was Jewish and have always felt a bond of faith with those who are Jewish. I realize that our shared faith ends with the Christian's belief in Christ. The only hope for us all is to share our faith with each other in love and not hatred. Each one choosing to hear and believe as his own heart dictates, not forcing our faith on anyone. One thing that would contribute to less hurt and hatred is not disrespecting anothers faith with pictures or words that humiliate or hurt. As a Christian, I would like not to see Christ replaced with an X as others would not want me to represent his faith in a hurtful way. I believe anyone who attacks others with words or actions is not following any true faith, but being led by evil

Riots after Jewish man throws firecrackers in Nazareth church A Jewish man accompanied by his Christian wife and their daughter detonated fireworks inside the Basilica of the Annunciation in the northern Israeli Arab city of Nazareth on Friday evening, triggering riots that led to the wounding of five police officers, witnesses said. Police said the man has a history of mental illness.
