2. Equality?
Adam ,   Golan Heights Israel   (05.26.11)
Throw them into the prison block with the most violent Israeli psychos. Let them "cure" these terrorists.
3. The pride of Palestine!!! PA will be paying them pensions
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (05.26.11)
These "heroes" will be receiving the standard treatment the Palestinian Authority gives other killers of Israeli civilians - reward money and pensions for their families. Look at their faces, folks, and recognize them for what they represent: Palestinian culture at its finest. Yes, Palestinian policy remains in place - kill Israeli civilians.
4. Aren't Western police shows aired on PA TV?
William ,   Israel   (05.26.11)
Someone needs to tell them that... First - you deny everything, Then - you cave under pressure and re-enact the crime you're guilty for. Not the other way around.

Shin Bet interrogations don't exactly follow the Law & Order model.
6. Evidence?
Alice ,   Oceana   (05.27.11)
More evidence is needed in this case. The various versions of the crime story all have contradictions and lacuna - for instance the shooting of the mother with a M16 from a neighbours house in that settlement. Apparently the intruders just happened to find the loaded gun ... what are the odds on that? And no one, in a closely built community, heard the deafening report of an assault weapon. The entire story is puzzling. The original story we were told is that the mother was stabbed during a struggle. That, at least, makes some sense. The question of how the intruders got into the settlement needs to be answered, and the provision of security camera footage would usually be considered essential for the prosecution. Instead, we are left with confessions - not the most convincing type of evidence.
7. the real killers are still out there... out... free...

The IDF said the military prosecutor has solid forensic evidence against these two young men, including DNA, and their fingerprints all linked to the crime scene. They slaughtered a family in coldblood. People they didn't even know for no other reason then hatred. They held down a little three year old boy and stabbed him to death,and cut the throat of a infant. They confessed and said they had no remorse. Please don't make any excuses for them,or try and justify these brutal murderers in anyway because what they did was just pure evil. God forgive those boys for what they did.

The statement that the Prosecution will present forensic evidence is encouraging, but one waits to see what it is. For instance, if they had clear footprints, then why, during the investigation, did they not state that there were two assailants? This might have helped when seeking information from the public. Vaguely, until the arrests, the authorities said that they believed there was more than one. Then they put a gag order, so that no one could comment on the investigation in the israeli media. Most unusual. Again, the failure to present any security camera footage - in a settlement constantly monitored in every perimeter and corner - is unusual. My questions here are not to excuse any crime, but to point out that we have not seen any evidence. The suspects confessed, then retracted this confession. They have been allowed to meet once, briefly, with a lawyer. That will it until they appear in court. If there is more evidence, one will have to evaluate it when it appears. But the military courts in the west bank don't have to allow additional evidence.
