31. Two Palestinian security gurads trained

by General Dayton (USA) have already been implicated for planning the murders and their names have been revealed. See www.wnd.com for the article. The actual perpetrators have either not been caught or have been but their names have not been revealed yet.
32. There are Jewish contractors who
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (03.17.11)
employ Arab construction workers but there are also Arab contractors building homes on the Yeshuvem while, in the meantime, there is not enough work for Jews, even for those who do construction work. The situation is very satisfactory for Arabs whose cost of living out in Shomrun and Yehuda are quite low but the same situation does not prevail for Jews. Furthermore, the government obstructs the establishment and implementation of businesses and other projects by Jews. The point is, there is a lak of consistent commitment towards those Jews who do live in the Yeshuvem, the lands where our ancient prophets resided and rove. Only the four National Union MKs have made full commitments in this respect. In the meantime, Ehud Barak has made it clear that he wishes to make life all the more furtive and insecure for us. Are Likud and Yisrael Beiteinu going to speak out and obstruct him? That is, in my estimation, the $64 question.
33. #8 If the killers were from Thailand,

where are they? Hiding in an Arab village in Thailand?
34. This is an attack on our settlement
David ,   Shiloh Israel   (03.17.11)
The Jewish security guard was attacked trying to defend them. That's just not acceptable, who ever the culprits are don't represent our yishuv & I certainly hope they don't represent the wider settlement movement. Let me say it clear 'nothing' justifies the horrific slaying in Itamar, and picking on Arab labourers under the 'protection' of an isshur allowing them to work in Shiloh is also not justifiable. The murderers will surely be 'fully' brought to justice. Remember 'Justice, justice you shall pursue' Our Torah uses the word justice twice to teach us that it must also be pursued in a just way. This last attack was cowardly.
35. Fogel family says NO to revenge
CK Tan ,   Singapore, Singapore   (03.17.11)
Despite the terrible loss, the surviving Fogel family says UNEQUIVOCALLY that they are "against any personal revenge or taking the law into civilian hands." (Arutz Sheva, 15 Mar). All who care for this family MUST respect their wish. Personally, I abhor UNPROVOKED violent acts against people who are NOT directly involved.
36. #26 Somebody, no need to assume
BENJABO ,   ISRAEL   (03.17.11)
One of YOUR groups boasted about doing it Post navigation← A sampling of recently proposed state legislation, part 2Must read piece on “Communications Management Units” in US federal prisons →“Imad Mughniyya Group”: A thing that makes you go “hmmmm…” Posted on Sat, 12 Mar 2011 by Andrew Ma’an News Agency, 12 Mar. 2011: An armed faction calling itself the “Imad Mughniyya Group” has claimed responsibility for stabbing to death an Israeli family of five in the illegal settlement of Itamar in the northern West Bank. Israeli authorities have dismissed statements from the group in the past, as it has claimed responsibility for other operations that may have been the work of others. It is believed to be linked to Fatah. Ma’an News Agency, 12 Mar. 2008: The group said to be responsible for last week’s shooting attack in Jerusalem has threatened to conduct “a sudden, huge operation” against an Israeli target soon. Ahrar Al-Jalil, or the “Galilee Freedom Battalion” sent the announcement to Ma’an News Agency on Tuesday evening, along with a photo of Ala’ Abu Dheim, who carried out the shooting in a Jewish school in Jerusalem to Ma’an news agency. Care to comment further ??
37. To #25: Does 99% Palestinians include those who celebrated
EST ,   Miami USA   (03.17.11)
...the slaughter of a Jewish 3 month old baby, the two older children and the parents? If as you claim 99% of Palestinians condemned the crime...why on earth haven't we heard them and seen them offer a token moment of silence for the souls of the slaughtered innocent people of Itamar? We hear plenty from the Palestinians when they have to say something, whether true or not....
38. Disgusting thugs
Ruth ,   Ramat Efal, Israel   (03.17.11)
These so-called settlers are no more than thugs and should be treated as such by the police. They are a disgrace to the settler movement, to the Israeli people and the memory of the thousands who died so that we could live in this country. How can anyone defend their actions - in this case attacking two innocent Palestinians who were just seeking to earn a decent wage. In addition they attacked the Jewish guard - who should have shot them on sight. The government must take action now against the Rabbis and their followers who are planning these attacks on innocents. They are as dangerous as the Arab terrorists because they are taking the law into their own hands, have NO respect for Israeli laws and are out of control. Just how long will our so-called Prime Minister and Defence Minister wait?
39. Observer - Egypt
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (03.18.11)
Have you Observed how your own Copts are being mistreated & killed ? We're eagerly waiting for the Arabs to create a Constitution that protects their minorities, we would use than at an example It seems that you’re doing a piss poor job of protecting the Christian Copt’s of Egypt, who are afraid to go to church, since the Muslims have fire-bombed the church while Congregant’s were at prayer You’re not doing too good a job in Iraq; Christian’s there have the same problems as those in Egypt Have you ever researched how Muslim’s treat their Dhimmi’s, my dog receives far better treatment, he can walk alongside, your Dhimmi’s have to step into the gutter http://archive.frontpagemag.com/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=20902 One more thing, Jews did flee all those Arab for no reason, they were used and abused & off the went, back home to Israel
40. to Fadi 20
john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (03.18.11)
She rode her donkey to the nearest Israeli hospital.Free treatment for Brain Intellect Deficiency.-Lying is her big problem.She claims to live in "Palestine" I can't find "Palestine" on the map of the Middle East-can you?
41. To Ruth - comment 38
Rach ,   UK   (03.18.11)
Bravo Ruth. This vile settler thuggery is a disgrace to the state of Israel and with the increasing popularity of the internet, there is little the Israeli government can do to hide this ongoing phenomenon from the rest of the world. Israelis need to be aware that many people from Europe and Australiasia now consider Israel morally on par with South Africa. Sooner or later, the unconditional support coming from the US will not be enough to stop the tidal wave of anger that the Israeli government is generating around the world.
42. One more comment from me
Rach ,   UK   (03.18.11)
Following on from my prior posting, I have something more complimentary to say - to the Jewish settler/security guard who tried to protect the Palestinian victims of the attack, thankyou for being such a decent human being and for showing such courage against these thugs.
43. #39 NON-OBSERVER - EGYPT
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (03.18.11)
Not every country has a Constituion, England doesn't neither does New Zealand It's not necessary to have one in the first place Saudi Arbia has one, it goes by the Sharia Law, which I don't think even you would be foolish enought to be Democratirc Here's a list who does and doesn't, you'll find that among those who do have Constituions, they function as dictatorships Enjoy the info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_national_constitutions
44. #39,43 You are right
observer ,   Egypt   (03.18.11)
in Judaism, there is only one or two verses to recite in time of illness, but there are hundred verses to recite on revenge.
45. #8 BULLSHIT!
18.03.11   (03.18.11)
46. # 30 and again I say Bullshit!
18.03.11   (03.18.11)
47. I FULLY AGREE
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (03.18.11)
Whatever the PA say's is pure, unadulterated BULLSHIT This like the story of the Arab Shepherd that Jews set his sheep on fire, he finally confessed he did it himself because he was carless with a fire he had started
