Issawiya is in Jerusalem which, last I heard, is unified and has been designated the capital city of the State of Israel. Perhaps the best solution would be to kick all Arabs out of Jerusalem. No more stone-throwing, no more ambushes, no more death threats. Sounds like a plan.

Really? Have violent Moslem anarchists taken over North Philadelphia, too? Wow. No wonder the state went red.

if 4 people entered from mexico to California illegaly the border police wll catch them and might even shoot them.

Well, since it's under full Israeli control, there is nothing to stop Israel from kicking all of you out of the country as extremely undesirable aliens. You're all Jordanian citizens, anyway -- thanks to the 1954 Citizenship Law which granted all West Bank Arabs, and their progeny, Jordanian citizenship irrevocably. Good-bye. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out of the Jewish state. Thank you for confirming that.

Nice thought, but not likely. Allistair could never report back as he would be too busy being very, very dead.

lynching-this is the peace that israel gets today and tomorrow if it sets up a state or not for the pals. Arabs fear only strength, guns and cash. By the way, when the arabs get their state, they want to not only kick the jews out from their areas but rape lots of israel women, get drunk on killing thousands and then kick the rest out. Appeasers can stay-avinery, burg, oz, beilin. Olmert will get a portfolio under haniyeh, and become miinister of justice, beilin will become advisor to rabbo, ben ami will be in charge of the jewish minority, livni will be minster of women and so on. As lieberman said-no more concessions period.

Sheer and utter nonsense. Have you any idea how many Arabs are employed in the settlements? And have you forgotten the four people -- including a very pregnant woman -- who were murdered by Arab terrorists not too long ago? I assure you that the list of Arab terrorism and violence on Jewish civilians is far longer than anything you could compose along the lines of the example you provided. Home demolitions are not spur-of-the- moment things; there is ample notice given. Why any Arab would put an 18-month old child in harm's way is beyond me, but, then again, why anyone would sell their children to be suicide bombers is also beyond my ability to grasp. I give thanks daily that I do not understand the Arab mindset. I don't want to; no normal person would. "Give people a reason to live," you say? Have you any idea what the West Bank was like before Israel acquired it in 1967? Constant outbreaks of cholera because sewage ran raw in the streets. Only 30% of all homes had running water. Roughly the same percentage had electricity. There were almost no paved roads; those that were paved were poorly maintained. Unemployment consistently hovered around the 25% mark. There was no infrastructure. There was only one hospital. There were no universities, and nearly no secondary schools. Israel fixed all that, and more. Built hospitals, schools, universities, medical clinics, and created an infrastructure. Any Arab who wanted a well-paying job in Israel could have one. A great many people took advantage of that fact. "Oppression," indeed. Just what planet do you live on?

You sure live in the right "neighborhood."

After all these people have been raised (indoctrinated) with pure hatred. For them it is perfectly normal to ambush and murder strangers. Then of course celebrate the acts as "resistance" (the euphemism) for terrorism. Of course we have the anti-Israel or Pro-Palestinian writers excusing the sick actions as "understandable" and blaming the victims of these assaults. Yes it was those mean old Israeli's that caused it, yea right!

and the road signs are really poor in that area ,people who don't know the roads well enough, can find themselves easily in arab neighborhood .

This is what the arabs want to do to israel. Livni says we are losing the world's support like she had so much when she was foreign minister and sderot was being rockets, dead bodies were returned for kuntar, and the 2006 war was being botched by israel's prince of dumbbells olmert. The hell with the world. And what- the world will punish israel. Not in the crunch- the west needs israeli drones, knowhow for its own survival. Livni just confirms she is mentally challenged. While attractive, israelis do not yet fully appreciate how naiive this woman is. She is olmert's twin.

You know what happens when a Palestinian is lost in an Israeli city? Nothing!!! He drive safely back home. This is the main difference, regular ordinary people ready to kill in a heart beat, no provocation needed. Can you imagine, in your country, that for any reason your entire neighborhood will join together, kids, men, and women, to lynch someone they don't know, who accidently enter their neighborhood without any intention of hurting them? Do you know anyone in your immediate surrounding that is willing to kill someone in this way?

To alister of Scotland.. Visit the same spot in your klit and bottle of scotch.You what do expect will happen to you ? Enjoy but don't ask the Jews to save you. Unless your are a Scottish Muslim !!!

Sara--You should be able to make a point without basing it on falsehoods. "Fort Apache" ie. dangerous neighborhoods in the Bronx ( and most other places) haven't existed for over 15 years. There are very few "seriously dangerous places" in the US. AND even it there were, why are you granting permission to the Arab residents of Issawiya to, in essence, keep their neighborhood Judrein. Arabs freely pass in Jewish neighborhoods. I'm surprised at you!

In the past they went to war under the slogan "itbah al-jahud", slaughter the Jews, and now, when they think they have the opportunity to do so, they attempt just that, to slaughter the Jews!!

The fact that a lynch was so perfectly orchestrated seems almost suspicious. No one in the Middle East (Israelis or Arabs) are so coordinated that they have a plan in place to trap a lost Israeli car in an Arab village. This seems more like what we believe the Arabs are capable of doing and not what happens in real life- other real lynchings were spontaneous, violent and did not require coordinated efforts.. I would feel more comfortable believing this with other accounts including a police investigation.

Kick the whole town the hell out of Israel

The British, inter alia, occupy the Malvinas, Ireland and Gibraltar. Until recently they occupied Iraq and still occupy Afghanistan. They have killed countless thousands of innocents in various wars in recent years, wars in which Britain had no direct interest. According to your logic you would support acts of terror in the UK by Iraqis, Afghans, Serbs, Argentinians and the Spanish. And yes, I agree with you. It is a complete coincidence that the only country were you believe terror is justified just happens to be the Jewish state.

This article needs to be on U.S. news to show that the so-called moderate Muslims are quiet only until given the chance to kill Jews and Christians. I wouldn't trust a Muslim any farther than I can throw them.

Like here in Malmö, there are areas where the police does not patrol, just sitting outside looking. And the real strange thing is that the area here is ALSO full of Muslims????? Coincidence? Our government has been fanatical about importing more Muslims than any other EU country. And the media all support it.

I have good friends who live in French Hill just next to Issawiah. The population is and has always been very aggressive to their Jewish neighbors WITHOUT provocation. Walid remarks that this will change by giving Palestinians control of this area -- this just is not true. His representation of the experiences of Arab Jerusalemites is NOT TRUE. This population is and has always been aggressive. As to my Scottish friend Alistar. I happen to have some Scottish family from the area just south of Inverness. Why don't you share what is done with Orange marches where you live...the annual glorification of the slaughter of Catholics. When you justify the attack on innocent people you come across without any credibility. You should walk these streets and see how this local population treats you. You will be the first one to say, the only way to deal with this is by defending yourself or something more aggressive. If you do visit this area, I would bring your Claymore because you will need it. You will soon see how much admiration you have for the Israelis. You will soon appreciate how much restraint they show. You will soon realize that this "just give us land and we'll give you peace" will seem a wee bit out of touch with reality. Have a Craggenmore single malt, stay safe and get educated.

I think it's just common thugs trying to rip off suburban naifs who wander into the wrong neighborhood(s) looking to buy drugs.

what a joke, and they want to divide jerusalem.?the city would be worse then detroit

well, YOU dont expect much of them, alistair... of course, there is understanding to "resist" an occupation. but, the "palestinians" use to target civilians - for decades. i found it difficult to understand, how you - and other european "activists" - can sympathize with that... i sought a lot for explanations, and the conclusion is rather shocking : you, and the activists, dont take the "arabs" any serious, you dont consider - nor expect - them to behave like civilized people. from this, there comes YOUR conclusion, that attacking civilians is an acceptable, even "natural" thing to do. in european countries, we - and you - call this "terrorism". in europe, you and the activists would reject attacking civilians as a means of "resistence", wouldnt you ? however - from the arabs - you all "expect" this... oops, nothing wrong with "terrorism" anymore... is it possible, dear alistair & activists, that you in fact have a very racist view on people ? on arabs, jews, others probably too ? how comes, that you have such a low opinion of arabs, that you dont condemn them morally for committing terrorist attacks ? ...that you EXPECT them to perform them ? pls just look a moment inside yourself, dear alistair, and think about it...

implant in little Israel. The religious hate for Jews and other non-Muslims NEVER dies. To seek a Muslim state in Biblical Israel is to wickedly seek a Second Holocaust. The Muslim state would reduce tiny Israel at mid-section to 9 miles wide INDEFENSIBLE, Auschwitz borders, facilitating the planned Second Holocaust.

I am surprized ! You know as well as I do that Gibraltar has had two separate votes in recent times and elected to stay independent of spain, And as for the rest recognised soverign territory.Where do you compare Occupation with Soverign territory. These laws are to protect minoritys like Jews .You know that, We dont allow aquisition of territory through war for a very good reason

worship death and destruction instead of life and construction. Look at how Muslims mass murder their fellow Muslims; how Arabs massacre their fellow Arabs from Morocco in the West to Afghanistan and Pakistan in the East to appreciate what Islamism is about to bring to Europe, the Americas, Australia and beyond if not checked. Sadly, the one person who needs to understand it, Mr. B.H.Obama, refuses to see reality for what it is, thus it is only a matter of time before the American voter would tell him directly: Sir, you are only a one-term President.

I was first in Jerusalem in 1970-71. In those days, so soon after the Six Day War, the Arabs knew who was in charge. Neither the IDF nor the Police would have tolerated any attempts to lynch Jews, and the Arabs knew it. I walked frequently in and around the Old City, even alone, without fear. Now what we have is a Police that often fail to intervene because they "don't want to make things worse". Aggression has become "cost free" as the Arabs know the Israeli left and foreign meddlers will excuse whatever they do. Look too at how Israel's own AG opposed a challenge by Shurat Ha'Din against illegal excavations by the Waqf. Just whose side are they on? Hillel asked, "If I am not for myself, who will be for me?" Clearly, no one. If Israeli authorities won't defend their interests and assert their authority, they will in the end lose everything.
