2. Israel Won't Protect Palestinian Civilians
Adam ,   Canada   (06.10.09)
Since Israel won't protect Palestinian civilians against attacks by its Jewish extremist settlers in the West Bank...it is time for the UN to send in an armed force to protect them.
3. YESH SIN and NR1
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (06.10.09)
Knowing who bankrolls these kind of jerks, with there one sided false claims, they do not warrant any serious response. And to our classic hater Lydia who is so far down under, were she has her head up so far, were the sun ain't shining, get a life and stop writing like a twit.
4. Only Guaranteed Protection is Unconditional Evacuation
Nour ,   Palestine   (06.10.09)
5. Funny isn't it?
Nour ,   Palestine   (06.10.09)
How the settler invaders are exempt of the most basic criminal laws of the state of israel, yet israel acts and annexes territory at will. If this is not violent and agressive apartheid I don't know what is. This is all while the world sits back in silence. Grotesque.
6. Uprooting trees = violence!?!?!?
(06.10.09)
Meanwhile "paleostinians" and Muslims world wide savagely and brutally murder PEOPLE. Suicide bombings, honor killings, beheadings, jihad, etc... but we never hear an article on that.
7. YNET, waiting for my TB from this morning, stop censorship!

8. 3Netanyahu is propposing joint US/Israel monitoringr
lydia ,   Brisbane   (06.10.09)
Knowing Israel penchant for blowing up UN envoys and that the settlers need for restraint, perhaps a better suggestion might be that the Muslims form their own contingency force to monitor the progress and protect the hapless Palestinians . Why should the onus be on the UN and the Americans. If Israel wants to behave like a thug let Gadaffi send some, King Abdullah, Pakistan send some Afghanistan send some etc. Throw in some Hamas and Hezbollah for good measure. That should put the cat amongst the pigeon.
9. 6You jest right? Already forgotten the KingDavid,
lydia ,   Brisbane   (06.10.09)
the Lavon, the USS Liberty, SS Patria etc, and the daily slaughter of innocent Palestinians.
10. Disgraceful!
Monitor ,   UK   (06.10.09)
A Jew was moderately wounded by a pack of stone-throwers and they report this rubbish? Ein Din more like.
11. just came in
fish ,   tel-aviv   (06.10.09)
13:05 Israeli moderately hurt as stones hurled at his car near Hebron (Army Radio) This is a daily routine. But Ynet boldly claim that uprooting trees is becoming more dangerous... Lydia from Brisbaine must be some kind of a communist... aren't you?
12. UNIFIL should be allowed to protect Aborigines
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (06.10.09)
They don't do a good job with Arb terrorism but since they are so highly esteemed by #1 and #8,9 she can take them to repent for her sins against true Natives
13. All the more reason to hasten their removal for good.
Johan Odin ,   Oslo, Norway   (06.10.09)
This is precisely why President Obama is working to end settlement expansion in preparation for the removal of settlers from the occupied West Bank and defining final borders. The settlers continue to prove they are a detriment to peace that if not removed will only exacerbate tensions that could lead to a regional war. As Condi Rice said, Israel's future lies in the Negev where there is plenty of room to build homes for them where they can be an internal Israeli problem rather than a problem for the entire world.
14. Censorship
Ricardo Macher ,   KarneiShomron-Israel   (06.10.09)
Why do you censor any TB saying that Mr. Sfard is a traitor?
15. UN/NATO troops May have to replace the IDF
Joseph Blough ,   NY, USA   (06.10.09)
This is precisely why the IV Geneva Convention prohibits the occupying power from transferring parts of its own civilian population onto land it holds under belligerent occupation, and another reason that UN/NATO troops need to be deployed in the occupied territories to help provide security for the Palestinians and oversee t enforcement of international law..
16. WHO needs Al-Qaeda?! We have Ynet !
Avi ,   Neve Yaakov   (06.10.09)
17. #1, #2, #4, #13, #15
Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (06.10.09)
The article presented no evidence, but hearsay from some private organization. In fact, there is no proof because no trees were not destroyed. But let us say that there was proof that Arabs destroyed Jewish trees and orchards. Would you agree to transfer the Arabs?
18. Hec I thought the UN protecting Palestinians is a great idea
Rebecca ,   Modiin   (06.10.09)
They're doing such a great job making sure Hisbala is not getting weapons, and that Hamas is not smuggling in rockets, they'd be a sinch protecting those poor discriminated-against dagga smoking, woman beating, child suicide condoning Paliis. Just so long as Jews can handle their own defence.
19. uprooting trees = terrorism ???
ezra ,   canada   (06.10.09)
I think hilltop youths are still not acting like terrorists but like desesperate kids who feel betrayed by their state. Wait for a police attempt to destroy outposts or wait for a new intifada. Then this generation which grew up amid arab violence and attended burials of so many friends and family killed by terrorism will become really violent.
20. Rightist thugs in action
Giora Me'ir ,   USA   (06.10.09)
21. This issue
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim,   (06.10.09)
B"H This issue is an obvious fabrication. The Torah prohibits Jews dameging the enemy's trees. Maybe secular Jews did it or Arabs
22. 16 Still trying to shoot the messenger, mate
