Palestinians: Settler hit teen over snowball    Ali Waked and Efrat Weiss
1. And you still say it's democratic country
The settler, if that's ture, was his by a snowball!! and then he goes and beat the hell out of the teen and get him hospitalized and injured and then how goes to jail.... it's the Palestinian ...

2. What a delight
Even if, and it's a big IF the settler was hit by a snow ball does that justify a beating? More brutalising of Palestinians by Isrealis. Look at all the evidence. It's everywhere. In the newspapers, on the internet, the TV, books, magazines on Youtube even! It's everywhere, evidence of israeli crimes and cruelty. Even this site puts out videos of grown men in uniform hitting young people so imagine the stuff the world doesn't get to see.

4. I thought that'd happen...
Be careful of snowballs. They sting. Start working on keeping the graters clear of melting ice now as well, or they'll clog. You have to watch out for flood patches during this unpredictable time of year.

5. THE JEWS THROW SNOWBALLS, ARABS CARRY SUICIDE BELTS
SETTLERS GET SHOT IN THEIR CAR, CLUBS AND RESTARAUNTS GET BLOWN UP AND WHAT MAKES NEWS IS A SNOWBALL THROWN BY AN ISRAELI, WHAT A SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS,THE AUTHORITIES SHOULD LOCK THIS MAN UP FOR 20 YEARS FOR A SNOWBALL. DOESN'T YNET HAVE ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT TO REPORT

6. I call on the Jewish residents of Hevron to respond in force
and stone every "Palestinian" in Hevron with snow balls!

Yes, what the media doesn't see. Like Pal kids throwing stones? Like Hamas pretending there's a blackout? Like children being brainwashed by their parents to hate Israel more than they love life? And even IF the kid's story is true (threw a snowball), then I still wouldn't be surprised by the settler's reaction. Imagining living life every day afraid that that same kid (or his parents, or some other brainwashed Palestinian) is gonna blow himself up, or shoot a rocket. And that assumes the settler's story (the kids throwing rocks) isn't true, which is another big IF. So get off your high horse, and realize that although you might fool France and the UN, you can't fool yourselves. Israel wants peace, and peace is the best thing that could ever happen to the Palestinians. Not to the other Arab countries, which use Palestinian suffering as a way to distract their own people from their own suffering and dictatorial governments, but to the Palestinians.

8. 5- you ddint read it
the story is the settelr beat up the child when he was playing with his freinds claiming the palestinian child hit him with a snowball. THIS IS CRIMINAL and the jew should be held in jail.

9. And what was in that snowball - a rock?
Wouldn't be too surprised. The only thing I am surprised at is that the police actually did something. Most of the time they are supporting the terrorists

10. #1 Democratic Country
Hebron boys, from personal experience, have special snowballs for Jews - rocks surrounded by snow. In a snow-covered back street in Hebron my car was once battered at both ends by these deadly toys as I drove through, and I might be dead were it not for my protective glass windows. I would call this very undemocratic behaviour which could be construed as attempted murder. "Settler" is a racist slur coming from you, implying that the man is a criminal by definition.

But then you would say that, depending on what side you stand and it's quite clear which side you're on. If you would have been standing there, the snow ball would have hit you too and then what would you have said? Unless you belong to the same tribe.

14. #1 a democratic country
The palestinian goes to Jail...What a wwwonderfullll country..

15. Story about man bites dog.
So a Settler finally struck back a palestian AFTER he was hit by a snowball. That IS News. Now A palestinian killing a settler for no other reason than him being a Jew is not news. It is an almost everyday occurance.
Gordon ,   USA   (02.01.08)
16. Well we do control the weather world wide
And the banks and the media. We make it snow. So snow itself is a warcrime.

17. 13- STOP JUST STOP
this was an awful crime. the kid was playing in the snow. how do you think this will affect him and his relationship to jews and settlers and Israelis beyond the actually terror of getting beat up by a middle aged man? It must be traumatic. and It appears to be a very racist hate crime actually. Please try to find some humanity in you. tHIS WAS WRONG. just admit it.
American ,   USA   (02.01.08)
18. Yes, she's a democratic country...
Look at what most Israelis are like. Don't judge a country based on one. Unlike the crap the arabs have turned gaza into...most of those idiots voted for a thugocracy...so yes, we'll judge them based on the many morons there. West bank? arabs occupying Jewish lands. So what else is new?
