61. "According to Hindawi"
BaGolan   (03.22.07)
Another palestinian that we know NEVER lie! They are not terrorists, they are holy people - saints even - simply honoring edicts required by the Quran. hindawi obviously told the truth. So what if he failed to listen to an order to stop in a hostile region. So what if the tape doesn't show what led up to the arrest. It's the Jews fault always - we all know that!

63. MIke #37 and Chris #40
john ,   denver, CO   (03.22.07)
Well Mike, those soldiers have been brought to court and several sentenced. What else do you want, or are you just venting some general anti-US anger? Chris, if you really ARE from the US, your use of the English language is embarrassing. Further, the Palentinians don't cause much damage because of that big wall Isreal built to keep out suicide bombers. Isreal isn't in these areas for "fun", when they pull back, Hamas and Fatah step in and start shooting rockets. Get your facts straight
64. #39 Daneille
John ,   denver, CO   (03.22.07)
Oh please. You were on the Isreali side and one video turned your mind? That is laughable. Isreal is the biggest troublemaker ever? The last war they weren't baited into it by Hezbollah (who wouldn't allow civilians to flee the fighting)? What about Iran and their peaceful uranium enrichment? I'm sure you support Iran in that as well. Here's what really gave you away "you don’t need to give me any site from jews' sites to feel sorry for jews". Yeah, it's *all* about the *JEWS*. I mean c'mon. There is not way someone could read one story like this and ignore the volumes describing the vitrol directed towards Isreal by Palestine and other neighbors even to the point of putting it into childrens textbooks!

why are you posting me some jewish source. i don't need them. i'm not going to change my mind for anything anymore. enough....if want to post something please be polite.....
66. SELFHATE !!!!!!!!!!
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (03.22.07)
Ynet will not condem what happens in gaza or other acts of violence that happen every day here. Like stonings,shootings,stabbings,molotov cocktails,just to mention a few things that happen here on a daily basis. Selfhate is a sickness of the soul, which is also evident in the people who run this state. In their zealous political correctness they will only attack their own. And then they are surprised that the world hates us. Their whole style of reporting is so unbalanced and unproffesional. Confusion is evident in every level of the state and the media are part of that.
67. It's a NON EVENT. ISRAELI POLICE IS GREAT
(03.22.07)
68. I have to admit compared to the other videos Ynet put
BUSH ,   USA   (03.22.07)
out on settlers versus Palestinians where not the world but rather the lefty israeli groups made a big stink about when a 2 yr old through a pebble at someone. Well this tops all those videos. Like I said thousands of times it is the govt idf and army that ignites hatred of Jews worldwide. They have no clue how to lead. All corrupted. Its time for a new Israel with G-d fearing Jews leading it. Throw out the secular big boys greedy for money and fame. I don't want to hear anymore blame on settlers or Yeshiva boys learning Gemara all day. You seculars said you were good people and you know how to run a country. How by beating up the religious and the Palestinians? In Iran they run it this way. Do not ever lift your hand at anybody because it will come back to haunt you. Now lets bring in the real Jews to run it
69. Jews lynched in a Ramallah police station
Avraham ,   NYC   (03.22.07)
So, these kids got a few punches. Do you remember what the savages did to two Jews in a RAMALLAH POLICE STATION? Their remains were unrecognizable. That's the "Palestinian" police and upholding of the law in the "Palestinian" society for you.
70. to Chris#65
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.22.07)
Sorry, woldn't wish to befuddle your bigotry with the truth. You know how them Jews are! By the way - some of the sources posted were Christian, but by your comments, you are oviously opposed to Christians a well.
71. disappoinment with Ynetnews
Marcelo ,   World   (03.22.07)
First of all, I am completely against this beating. However, this is not the most important fact that happens in our nation. I can not understand why Ynet places this stuff on its headlines, while Kassam misslies, suicide killers, and many murderous acts by our enemies are hitting us. You guys should be ashamed of your anti-nationalistic attitude. What do you want to accomplish? More hate and anti-sionism? It is not ok to beat a guy, but it is even worse to see an israeli newspaper hitting our country like this. You are the true troublemakers of our nation. Go to learn some hasbara and feel ashamed at least.
72. the beating
felix ,   toronto, canada   (03.23.07)
this is a clear result of the vicious cycle that the Israel v. Palestine conflict has become. Kids with guns, kids with rocks, power trips, frustration, humiliation, revenge, etc. They do outrageus acts, we do outrageous acts. No point in saying "theirs are worse than ours". it is not a game, unfortunately. It is hard to pass judgment while living in cosy Toronto, but we must not become a brutal army, we just can't, as it will just fuel more hatred for the next generation. It is easy to treat with respect someone that is not invloved in a conflict with you. Now, if you could treat with respect (and yet be firm) with those that you war with, chances are the cycle could eventually diminish......shalom/salam
73. Oh please.
Yonatan Neff ,   United States   (03.23.07)
You've got to be kidding me. That video shows the Palestinian kid getting a very slight beating and he should consider himself lucky. I counted 8 little strikes by the soldiers against him. Isn't it also interesting how the video seems to skip around. We have no idea what really happened because the cameraman just turned on the camera when he saw the soldiers act against the kid. It seems obvious to me that he provoked the attack with his violent stone throwing.It doesn't take a genius to understand that a rock can be a very effective weapon and can easily kill someone. But the larger thing is this video is completely out of context and I am sure these soldiers have a very different account of what happened there.
74. That's terrible
akin ,   Turkey   (03.22.07)
That's İsraeli soldier who likes to beat people without gun.Why you don't try peace way.You İsraeli and Palestinians people.We hate to see everyday violence on tv.That's a enough big world that to live here for us.
75. Daneille #39
israeli ,   israel   (03.22.07)
OMG yourself. What EVER gave you the idea that I wanted you to feel sorry for Jews? The story I recommended is from this site, this Jews' site you are posting on right now. Nice catholic like you... Besides, why post anyway if you are not willing to exchage ideas? Or are you so enraged that you think a little Jew-bashing might do you good and solve the problem also? I take it Maracco is Marocco?
76. disgraceful article
Leo ,   Australia   (03.23.07)
what a disgraceful, one sided article. We don't even know the facts on the ground, the investigation is not even over and yet as always the fifth column newspaper, Al-Ynet publishes all the one-sided arab allegations as undisputed 'fact.' What did the boys do to get slapped in the first place? In any case, the Jews of Yesha get treated worse than this And forget about slapping...Arab children get killed every day in Fatah vs Hamas voilence (a baby girl was just killed today) - and none of this gets the same attention or recieves the same amount of condemnation. Ynet you are an absolute disgrace - you're editors should be in jail for treasonous incitement and for spreading enemy propaganda
77. 17 year old youth?
Gordon ,   Brooklyn, USA   (03.23.07)
A 17 year old youth, you would think would be wise enough not to throw stones at armed men. He's lucky he only got away with a bitch slapping instead of being shot and killed. Which I think should have been the consequence.
78. police&students
read ,   concord-california   (03.23.07)
all innocent students must have safety, those who attack a innocent student should go to jail!
79. to 42
(03.23.07)
Do you love eachother ?? no you don't , you are eating eachother inside Israel ... look at the treatment you treat to your people according to from where they came , you are racists even with your people .... Mr. Rabin have been killed on the hands of one or more of his people but the point is here is that you asked the Palitinians to stop teaching the Palistinian children in the school how to hate Israel .... how you ask them this when you treat those children like this ...... this boy can be after few days a suicid bomber hand made by the IDF and you will call him terrorist later whenever you made him like this .... now we know that the IDF is a suicide bombers factory and not because of Hamas or others ... it's because of you ... because you treated those people like animals for more than 60 years ... stop cheating your self ... the world you can not cheat anymore we all knows you well like an open book ... we know how snacky you are ... change your self before you will destroy your selfs by your hands .

84. The day Israel had their PATRIOTIC MKs ATTACKED by POLICE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (03.23.07)
Three MKs were attacked at Amona: Aryeh Eldad, Effie Eitam, and Benny Elon. The faces of the three patriotic Jewish MKs are very well known. The police knew exactly who they were attacking. Arab MK Bishara has called several times for an intifada against Israel. Other Arab MKs support the violent overthrow of Israel. Can Israel's government explain why the government allows Arab MKs to commit TREASON and hate incitement to a second Holocaust of Jews, and patriotic Jewish MKs, Ministers of Israel's government are viciously attacked by Israel's police? Peaceful Jewish protesters including many children, were savagely attacked by police hitting protesters repeatedly with metal batons. Jewish victims suffered broken jaws, ribs and limbs and multiple, serious head wounds. February 1, 2006, the infamous day recorded in history when Israeli police went to war against Jewish innocents instead of waging war against Israel's barbaric enemies. Video of Attack on Jews http://www.israelnn.com/special.php?id=amona STOP Inciting Children to Kill ! http://www.teachkidspeace.com/flash.php http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/pictures/PalestinianChildAbuse
85. OMG

ben ,   singapore   (03.23.07)
SHOULD MAKE PRESS RELASE bY NOW ALREADY . ACCOUNTABILITY TIME. JUSTICE is JUSTICE. By now the complain should have been brought to the AG's OFFICE and the The Magistrate - Let the Police defend their position if there is one. Ynet / Ali Wakid should PROBE ! Justice must manifest it self !
89. He fights like a girl.
Zion   (03.23.07)
90. Open handed slap not as bad as rocks
Scott ,   Haifa   (03.23.07)
If this kid was throwing rocks, then he deserves slaps on the head. You can tell he had an attitude at the beginning of the video clip. They were being easy on him. This is such a liberally sick article.
