1. Senseless Jewish thugs
larry butler ,   kibbutz Israel   (10.04.11)
I't amazing that you can write a story with no information ,no back ground check up.no anything. you say "Senseless Jewish thugs" and how do you know they are jewish,even before the police know .. bad reporting "!! at the least
2. Any proof arsonists Jewish ? As if arabs haven't been
ab   (10.04.11)
bombing their own mosques in Iraq and Gaza during their infighting. Catch the perp and condemn afterwards
3. #2
Salma ,   Palestine   (10.04.11)
You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
4. Check your sources
Raphael ,   Netanya   (10.04.11)
I would like to recommend you to read Ynet's article written by Hassan Shaalan this morning at 09:17, before spreading your antisemitic prejudice. You found out the culprits before any investigation: that is not professional journalism, but hate mongering.
5. Ignorant Salma again
Israeli grandma   (10.04.11)
We do not yet know who did this vile act, it could just have easily been Arab provocateurs (look up the dictionary if you dont know this word) and framing young Israeli hotheads by daubing poorly written Hebrew slogans on the walls.
6. #1- yeh yeh right Palestinians burned their own mosque !!
(10.04.11)
what BS !
7. The Perps haven't even been caught
Rod ,   Fargo N.Dakota   (10.04.11)
and yet you're sure it's right wing Jews.I remember some Gay Center was attacked by stabber or shooter immediately it was said it was done by right wing Orthodox Jews.Has the suspect ever been caught? if he or they have been caught it's never been in the newspapers. This is why people are losing confidence in Newspapers and all other Media.
8. Back to the USSR (or Nazi Germany)
Arthur ,   SF, CA   (10.04.11)
Guilty... unless you can prove otherwise.... Maybe the journalist (if you can call him one) will kindly provide us with the name of the thug?
9. Once again arabs cause a fire and Jews get blamed
Miriam ,   Israel   (10.04.11)
10. Hagai, You Too?
Yoni ,   Shomron   (10.04.11)
Et tu, Hagai? Was this article written by Hagai Segal or Yoel Meltzer? Don't rush to blame till we know the facts.
11. Larry Butler @ 1 - senseless Jewish Thugs.
Moragh USA   (10.04.11)
..... and how do you feel Larry about the Fogel family killers?
12. Senseless
Robert ,   Bet Shemesh   (10.04.11)
This is typical leftist BS - let's convict the Jews before we know who did it... if it turns out that Arabs from Hebron did it to cast aspersions on Jews, will the author issue an apology? Probably not.
13. #3 salma the expressionist!
jo moor   (10.04.11)
Well done. You got it right! Maybe more people should learn and use your expression to solve the BS Pal problem.
14. Isn't it interesting?
m   (10.04.11)
When Jews that take the wrong turn are being lynched, how have all these 'vandalists' have succeeded in years of attacks without being lynched, or discovered by the Shaback? Logic anyone?
15. Crime
michaelpielet ,   boca raton, Israel   (10.05.11)
a better idea would be to find the perpetrator of the crime. Maybe is Israel is one of those countries where guilt assigned before the crime is solved. Of course all arabs who desecrate Jewish places will be apprehended and sentenced to long jail terms?
16. Mosque badly burned
Elizabeth   (10.05.11)
At arabs could be guilty of burning their own mosque, wouldn't surprise me in the least. These murderous thugs certainly know how to stoke a red-hot fire aleady against Israel. These palestinians are very conniving and will do anything for a war against Israel. I have never known such jealousy of any country as what the so-called palestinians have against Israel. Where would these mish-mash arabs go if Israel tossed them out on their thug asses? There's not country on the face of this Planet that would offer them a roof over their heads. It would be back to the beginning, namely, the arabian deserts. The burning sun would be the roof over their heads and their lazy thug asses would suffer the heat during the nights. Get real Palis, lose yourselves or suffer the consequences when you're all back to wandering the deserts wondering where you can lay your heads down.
17. Why Haven't They Been Apprehended
Gordon ,   Bronx, USA   (10.05.11)
Let's not be so blase about the work of the "price tag". They have been setting fires in mosques for quite a long time. I would bet that if they were not Jews, they would have been apprehended and tried months ago.
18. #6 yes they have
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (10.05.11)
It is VERY COMMON for Arabs to attack and destroy mosques. In fact the Arabs have destroyed more mosques in their internal wars than from all other causes combined.
19. Mosque Arson
Gene Graczyk ,   Santa Rosa, CA USA   (10.05.11)
Wouldn't it simply be wiser for all concerned to condemn ANYONE who seeks to make a political point by destroying another's house of worship? Some comments here imply that it would only be logical to assume Muslims destroyed their own mosque because it has happened before in sectarian attacks. Honesty requires the admission that some Israelis have seen fit to attack in this manner as well. When the arsonists are found, what will you say if they are Jews? Will you condemn them, fall silent or refuse to believe that truth?
20. Strange
Steve B. ,   USA   (10.06.11)
I don't understand how the Palestinians are given so much leeway to express their displeasure/s: killing families while they sleep; killing a father and son innocently driving down a road; desecrating holy sites while residing on land that doesn't even belong to them. Yet, so-called rightest, finally, decide enough-is-enough and they're labeled terrorists for defending their own on land that was rightly given to them by G-d. Now, you tell me: what type of ill-logic sense is that? I'm stupified. G-d bless Israel and her eternal land. Praying for Israel's Jerusalem...the home of G-d's true Chosen People. We true Christians love and support you always! A Christian Zionist
21. ignorant
k ,   planet earth   (10.07.11)
It must really suck to be so brainwashed.. Just dont do it in the name of my religion.. Jesus Christ is innocent of your hate and ignorance.
22. Burning the Mosque
scott cowie ,   Usk Canada   (10.07.11)
People strap nails and explosives to themselves to blow up school buses or kids at an ice cream parlor...sneak into homes late at night and decapitate infants...stone a man and his infant son...set fire to their own sheep and blame it on the Jews... And I'm supposed to believe that a culture like that, that celebrates these acts within its communities rather than condemn them would stoop so low as to set fire to their own Mosque to elicit world sympathy ? I may be Goy but that don't make me stupid...and even if by some chance this is the work of Yeshaleem yesh calbah its hardly proportional justice. Books and a building compared to the lives of little children.
23. pathetic Talk backers
Phil ,   the free world   (10.08.11)
24. @ 20 Steve
Harmen ,   Leiden, Netherlands   (10.07.11)
Dear Steve, You assume the G-d has given the land to the Jews. From that perspective you will indeed find the Palestinian actions ill-logic. I do not believe that God has given the land to the Jews. I believe that both, Israelis and Palestinians, have claim. I hope that both will find a way to live in peace and recognize each other. From my perspective, the settlers do not have as many rights as you claim, and the Palestinians have more rights than you claim. I am not stupified by your opinion, though I do believe that it is just that, an opinion. I hope that you will accept that others also have opinions, who may well be different from yours, and still they can be respectable. Let us be honest, both sides have done terrible things, but most people on both sides have not done such things and want to live in peace. Let us hope it gets there. Yours, Harmen
25. to #24 Abu mazen in UN assembly sworn
ghostq   (10.09.11)
he will never recognize Israel, on the other hand BIBI say Israel will recognize palis only if all mesures of hostility by palis will stop, I reckond palis do not want to share and that was also the case in the partision plan in 1947 in which they refused, sound like they care not for peace. and it comes from the leaders themselves, as for palis the hostility btween arabs and jews begane long before 1973, Hebron isn't a setelment btw it wasn't created in 1973, how you r going to solve that problem? considering the racist stance that no jew by law can enter the area, Israel got no laws that limit arabs. go check it.
