31. Duplicity
Michael ,   USA   (11.18.10)
Israel is about to begin another round of peace talks while the Arabs are plotting their next moves to destroy and deligitimize Israel. There is a grass roots movement in Palestinian society to sow hatred against Israel, as this new web site shows. Does Israel have a death wish?
32. social boycott to israelis!
ivan ,   haifa   (11.18.10)
33. #6 We will stop at nothing either...
IDF ,   Central Command   (11.18.10)
Until the "Palestinians" and Muslims are a brand standing for murder, lies, racism, hatred, genocide, intolerance, apartheid, destruction, corruption and theft. As a matter of fact, the "palestinians" are doing our work quite well! As for Muslims, they are already a brand for the above. Thank you Al Qaeda and the likes of "BSD Command Central" (sic!) " AKA "Salma", for making the word "Muslim" synonym to "Terrorist".
34. #4 IDF has the list and it is getting shorter each day ;)

"hollow words" Your a hollow head, doorMatt
37. "bear upon the physical" should be applied on the writrs
Freedom of speach is ,   not of incitement   (11.18.10)
The writers should be traced, found and punished. It is unbearable that people will take the liberty to publish details and photos and call them criminals. Their source of information on names, addresses, phones and pictures is most probably stolen data from IDF computer. It should also be investigated and people should be brought to trial.
38. Proud of our sons
Micha ,   Rehovot ISRAEL   (11.18.10)
If you were to treat these heroes as " war criminals" all the Brittish army R.A.F and the allied forces in WW2 should be considered " war criminals" . Show me one !! just one country anywhwere on earth waiting 8 ( yes eight ) whole years until it strikes back !!! WE ARE PROUD that this are our sons and thanks to them we will survive if you like it or not.

40. The site has been removed as of today
Israel ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
the site has now been taken down due to the violation of terms of service of the website host...
41. Oh dear, Matty... website gone...

42. GUILTY TO PROVEN INNOCENT
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (11.18.10)
Why not put a bulls-eye on there backs. Those responsible for this should be arrested if any harm comes to anyone listed on this site. This is the same as inciting violence against these innocent people. That's why we have courts of law, not mob rule. So those who did this are immediately guilty of liable, this crass move is outrageous. Sadly, it is one of the drawbacks of the internet, when people misuse its power to defame people without proper proof. It does put these people lives at risk, as I said earlier if any are killed, those who put this out should be charge with murder.
43. #13 jj Since you addressed me....
Mark ,   Lodz, Poland   (11.18.10)
If you don't care whether they're criminals or not....why do you care whether they're brave or not? Personally, I don't think they are criminals, deem them brave by default and yet funnily, don't care what you think.
44. Ex-website.......Good riddance
Spencer ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
Well, the website has been removed. Those behind it should be flushed down the toilet ...They feel at home there amongst their own kind.
45. #10 observer
(11.18.10)
None of the direct quotes from the website posted by Ynet support your allusion that Ynet quoted anything incorrectly. The "article" on the website doesnt have to say anything about war or crime. The url of the website says it all: Three words made into one for url purposes. Israeli War Criminals. The whole purpose is to brand the people listed as Israeli War Criminals. Nothing more, nothing less. And if their purpose was altruistic, without bias, etc., why not one Hamas operative listed ? For one reason - again: pure anti-Israel focus.
46. under the heading of 'war criminals'
observer   (11.18.10)
the heading should have been: 'believed not war criminals by Israel'. thousands rocket story lives, freedom of speech fulfilled!
47. It is the Neturei Karta people
naro ,   nyc   (11.18.10)
Their rabbi put them up to it.
48. #45 it is all over there under various titles
observer   (11.18.10)
I would have provided you with a couple other links, but I don't have to. Please, read #46
49. Out of curiosity...
Jeremy ,   Michigan USA   (11.18.10)
Does anyone know of a list of all of the people who have been killed or injured by the wars, bombs or suicide bombers? Lets publish this list to the world and ask them why it is ok that these people are no longer with us.. and btw this list does not just include Jews! While we are at it, lets add to that list all of the innocent Arabs who have died at the hands of their own "governments". And then we can also put out a list of all of the people who are living in "camps" because the wealthy governments in those countries refuse to take them in even though they have been there for decades (some born their and still have no rights). I sometimes feel that Israel really needs a better "PR department" either that or the world needs a brain transplant... Its as though no one is paying attention!!!
50. Everyone on the list IS A HERO OF ISRAEL!
David ,   Hartford USA   (11.18.10)
Did anyone get the names and photos of the American and British pilots that bombed Dresden in WWII? (Where tens of thousands of innocent people were killed?) NOPE! Because people get killed in war- civilians and soldiers. I would consider the website an HONOR ROLL of Israel's finest. And if the psychopaths in Gaza send more rockets into Israel, the men on this list have my blessings and approval to repeat their heroism.
51. Time to publish a list on Hamas.
DR ,   UK   (11.18.10)
After Israel ceded Gaza for peace they received in return the election of a terrorist entity sworn to destroy it, by a populace fully aware of what Hamas stood for. Israel also saw Gaza turned into a terrorist training camp and a launching pad for thousands of missiles against neighbouring Jewish civilians. After years of these attacks only then did Israel eventually respond. Sidestepping the acts of Hamas which led to the Gaza conflict those responsible for these 'war crimes' allegations isolate the Israelis who subsequently responded in self defence. Reading the comments of those here who support such allegations it is clear that any reason, or no reason, is grounds enough to launch into such a tirade. The denigration and delegitimization of the state of Israel, together with its right to exist and defend itself, is at the heart of the Arab/Islamic war against the Jewish state. Those behind the website concerned clearly have such an agenda at heart. Prior to and throughout the Gaza conflict, as Hamas used civilian areas and civilians from which to fire behind, they continued to emphasize and promote the religious ideology that death for Allah is an ideal to be actively pursued. Their goal being to convince Palestinians, including women and children, not to fear death but even to face it at the front to protect Hamas fighters. Hamas's placement of its military installations and fighters among civilians reflects this ideology, and senior Hamas representatives have expressed pride that the Palestinians "desire death" with the same intensity that Israelis "desire life." The following is the full text of the comments by Hamas representative Fathi Hamad: - "For the Palestinian people death became an industry, at which women excel and so do all people on this land: the elderly excel, the Jihad fighters excel, and the children excel. Accordingly [Palestinians] created a human shield of women, children, the elderly and the Jihad fighters against the Zionist bombing machine, as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: We desire death as you desire life." It is clear who the war criminals are. It is those in Hamas and their minions who abuse their own people and use them as a cover to hide behind as they endeavour to kill Jewish civilians on the other side.
52. #46 Observer
Solomon ,   Bklyn   (11.18.10)
The heading should have been "Defenders of Israel from Thousands of Rockets, believed war criminals by those who are dumb and blind"
53. Didn't do enough research to see Hamas admissions
William ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
that most of those killed in Cast Lead were actually their fighters and not the civilians they, and Leftists pushing war crimes accusations, claim. I tend to go with Hamas' admission and not the racist hate camp that fuel this region's fire.
54. #13 - untrained? They were trained by Iran
William ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
Apparently you missed that tidbit of information that is, as these soldier's photos, so readily on the Internet. For "undertrained boys", not bad to have advanced IEDs planted all along civilian venues and advanced tunnel systems with rocket launchers, and snipers. It really doesn't matter what you think, but it does matter what Hamas and Army of Islam thinks....and they know us very well.
55. #14 - can I accuse you of something and get ICJ charges?
William ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
because that's essentially what they're doing at this site. Rather than present evidence on individuals, this is full conjecture, collective punishment, and holes in the legal argument. That's the main reason why ICJ doesn't bother despite your *emotional* demand that they do. I believe Goldstone said it best when he admitted that his report had NO facts that would stand up in any court of law. I guess that would include the ICJ.
56. #32 - we'll remember your post when Hiz strikes Haifa
William ,   Israel   (11.18.10)
boycotts work both ways.
57. What for
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (11.18.10)
why post this site, israelis are brave strong soldiers and did a great job in cast lead!
58. # 40 & 44: yes but there are copies.
Norwegian Citizen ,   Oslo, Norway   (11.18.10)
Yes, the site has been shutdown, but there are already 2 copies of the site: One on a pro-palestinian blog, and another on an internet cache site. I see no reason to provide liks to these disgusting sites, but they do excists.
59. A website for Jewish heroes?
Michael (UK) ,   Oxford   (11.18.10)
Quite often in the last 100 years or so Jewish heroes have been terrorists, indeed I believe there are streets in Tel Aviv named after some of those that committed acts of terrorism against the British. The list and photographs of these war criminals is now available on many websites
60. #24, 43, and 54
jj   (11.18.10)
24,. i dont see which side are the bad ones., i can tell you on the facts which side is braver. given the choice, id take the tank over a foxhole an AK and a keffiya. absolutely no problem. you seem to make it as though these guys were going in solo in their tanks with "thousands of terrorists crawling around them". they werent. they had the backing of a well trained, well equipped and well funded army behind them. stop talking about the hamas guys as if they are some sort of mega-soldiers. theyre not. they managed to get a handful of kills. the IDF are the schoolyard bullies. and the firing out of schools etc? still using that one to justify indiscriminate fire? hey, whatever makes you sleep at night. 43, you dont care what i think, yet took the time to respond. funny that. 54 - see comment re mega-soldiers above. undertrained boys that can put a crappy bomb together (of which not one killed a soldier, but of course thats coz the IDF are just sooooo good, right? yeah), can dig a tunnel and are able to figure out which end of the gun the bullets come out of. go IDF! why its like david killing goliath all over again! those poor guys with all their heavy armour, artillery, close air support, un-manned drones, satellites, smart bombs, phosphorous, infa-red, mortar crews, heavy machine guns, guided rockets etc. why its a wonder they survived that ordeal at all!
