31. # 17 What racism?
Thomas ,   US   (03.21.11)
I see posts by people calling this act disgraceful and others asking where the wounds on his head are. Where's the racism in those remarks? I hope you're not an example of an educated Candaian. If you want to read a racist post see # 21.
32. God bless the Christians of the Holy Land
Jennifer ,   USA   (03.21.11)
May God bless the remaining few brave Christians who live in the Holy Land where Jesus walked. Between extremist Muslims on one side and extremist Israeli Jews on the other (like the ones who attacked this man), the dwindling Christian community of the Holy Land will need Gods help just to survive. The Israeli occupation of the lands along with the radicalization of Muslims across the region has been a devastating blow to the Christians of the Holy Land like this victim.
33. Whoever...
aline silverman ,   Israel   (03.21.11)
committed this attack will certainly be caught and punished since WE LIVE IN A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY !!! N 11...What do you mean by :" Sephardic punks, Russians or Blacks"???? As an Israeli and a Jew, I am ashamed by your RACIST remarks !!!!
34. Probably Fellow " Cousins" Warning Him
El-Nakam ,   TA, Israel   (03.21.11)
Hanging around with a girl in the forest? Haram! (Forbidden in Arabic). Where are his friends to corroborate the story?
35. #32 and #33
Israeli 2   (03.21.11)
Jennifer #32: Israel is a land given to the Jewish people by God. God did not say for you to live there. It is is not yours anyway. Do not talk about Israeli occupation when there is none to talk about. The only occupation is the presence of those who want to make Israel democratic. #33: Aline: Drop your higher than thou attitude. Your post is disgusting. I agree with #11. Sephardic and Russian mentalities can be very dangerous.
36. Hmm What did they say
Shalom ,   Ashdod, Israel   (03.21.11)
Did they shout Allah Akbar before they stabbed him? Sounds like an attack by some Moslem "Friends" who do not like him
37. Was it plastic knife?
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (03.21.11)
Where is the wound to his head and neck? It looks like he got stabbed on the lower bottom. Is he messing around wit soemone's girlfriend? How stupid are these talkbackers to accuse Haradim of this? This guy looks as healthy as a horse to me.
38. Christian Arab stabbed,
Elsie. ,   gush halav   (03.21.11)
Whatever the motives for this attack and who ever did, leave it to the police to find out what really happen!! what cannot happen is all this bad mouthing on the talkbacks, i live in Gush Halav and all the years i have lived here i have never seen problems with the jewish, moslim or christian groups, so people, instead of crawling out of the woodwork, leave it up to the police.
39. #21 YOU HAVE N CLUE WHO HAREDIM
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (03.21.11)
ARE? The story says that they attacked with stun grenade!!! You think anyone in Israel can get grenades? Are you that naive? I say Haredim also have fire coming out of their behinds? Would you beleive that too?
40. extremist rabbis are guilty of encitment
Avi ,   Israel   (03.21.11)
As we all know these so called harideem cant actually think for themselves and have been encouraged by their rabbis who regualry encite hatred and violence. In our region we all know words can kill these so called rabbis are guilty of incitement and should be charged. Naturayy they use "freedom of speach" as a means to shrug their resposibility.
41. Orthodox jews
sama ,   canada   (03.21.11)
Orthpdox jews are becoming very dangerous . teaching hatred toward others. is that what the Holy book says to do? God bless palestinians and give them the courage to live in their land that was stolen from them.
42. Stabbed 10 times in the head? Where is the blood?
Babishka ,   USA/Mea Shearim   (03.21.11)
Scalp wound bleed like crazy. There would be BLOOD EVERYWHERE! and his head would be completely wrapped in a pressure bandage. Instead, he is pointing to a little scratch on his behind.
43. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.21.11)
His are unsubstantiated accusations; the perpetrators are in all likelihood Arab. Religious Jews would have been far too busy celebrating Purim. That said -- how would you characterize the murderous thug(s) who slaughtered the Fogel family in Itamar? You're really quick to throw out the word "animals" where it does not apply, and very slow to use it where it does.
44. #41 the real palestinians were jews
rachel ,   usa   (03.21.11)
45. #40 Avi is guilty of incitement
Kyle ,   Southpark, CO, USA   (03.21.11)
There is NO EVIDENCE that this guy was "stabbed in the head 10 times" let alone that "haredim" were the ones who did it. YNet is inciting (as usual), and everyone who claims "haredim are monsters!" based on this totally bogus story are reacting to the incitement based on their own prejudices, without any regard to the facts.
46. Jewish hospital saves him
israelisgood ,   Austin, USA   (03.21.11)
He claims 8 men had stun grenades, threatened to shoot him, then stabbed him. Is he dreaming? Why wouldn't they shoot him dead if they were so evil? Can he describe the masks they wore? Also ask the girl he says he protected to describe the masks. Who thinks they can come up with the same story?
47. Michael 17
Rachel   (03.21.11)
I don't know why I or others try to reason with people like you,but here it goes anyway. 1. You accuse Israelis of racism? Maybe there are some anti Arab comments by talkbackers here,and some racism in Israeli society,and that's ashame, but it is nothing compared to the racism, and antisemitism which infects the Palestinian society. 2. Palestinian religious leaders, politicians have referred to the Jews as cancer and aids, Palestinian society makes heroes out of people who mass murder Jews. Just last week,after the stabbing murders of an Israeli family the Palestinian government, paid tribute to an Arab terrorist who murdered 40 Israelis. And that's just the tip of the iceberg, schools, mosques, and even sporting events have been named after suicide bombers,and other terrorists who have murdered Israelis. Why don't people like you who condemn racism from the Israeli side ever condemn the more broad and worse racism by the Palestinian and Arab side?
48. #9 Jews do not do something like this
LibertyRising ,   USA   (03.21.11)
Love your sense of humor! You DO know how the country got started, right?
49. no visible bruises, no visible scratches?
violet ,   Houston, USA   (03.22.11)
Why does anyone believe this guy? If he had been attcked by eight men, shouldn't there be some visible damage?
50. Look at the picture
Uri ,   Brussels, Belgium   (03.22.11)
This man was supposedly stabbed 10 times in the face. I don't see any cuts. Story doesn't seem too legit, to be honest.
51. sounds fishy but isn't necessarily
kay ,   usa   (03.25.11)
it says he got stabbed in the back and legs as well. there is blood starting to seep through the bandage on his side, if his back and legs were injured, it follows that his head woulds could be on the back of his head as well. the reason it sounds fishy to me is that it's too pat, but that could just be the author of the article...
52. Read Story Again...
peggy ,   USA   (05.09.11)
The article said that the man received blows to the HEAD. I read nothing which said "face". Amazing that people read that which they wish was written, not what actually was.
53. Haredim
Glezele Vayne ,   Tzfat   (04.14.14)
I'm sorry this man has suffered so much. My he heal up completely and be well. However, before we go slandering the haredi community, we have to keep in mind how easy it is to purchase ultra-orthodox clothes and fake a Yiddish accent.
