no need to fight among ourselfs

The escalation of violence against home owners and their families in Judea and Samaria will only lead to violence Jew against Jew and to Civil War. The victors will be the Arabs and the rest of the world laughing their heads off at weakened Israel. When you go against your sons and daughters with a heavy hand you can almost expect negative consequences.

The fact is that the army cannot be used to destroy Jewish homes and families. If it is used for this it will cause bloodshed among brothers. The leftists may look forward to this but it is a terrible thing for the Jewish people. Keep politics out of the IDF Jewish peoples army

Attacking soldiers is a red line nobody in this country has a right to cross. If these idiots force the soldiers to retaliate and somebody is seriously injured or killed we really are going to have a civil war on our hand. If 8000 can be evacuated from Gush Katif an not raise a hand against soldiers then this lot should do the same and if they don't then arrest them and lock them up for a long time to set as an example to others, If they care about the rest of the Yeshe then they will end this now because the result will be the public will start to brand all of the Yeshe as trouble makers.

obey the law and build where your allowed result no demolition. Home owners are only refered to when they have legal title and not when they rent or steal a caravan and sneak into a vacant area and declare the land as there own. Obey the law in the country you live in otherwise as you stated only the arabs will win. If you dont want to obey then leave. Just because you call yourself Jews does not give you the right as you please.

The army should not be used to expel Jews. The Arabs want us all dead and they are laughing at Bibi and Barak. We need Donny Danon to lead the Likud. With Love of Israel David Jacobs

Eli, how about the settlers follow the law??? All of the responsibility is being put upon our soldiers, but what about our citizens? They have an obligation too. When the gov't tells them to leave, LEAVE!

Eretz Yisrael was conquered with weapons and will be defended with weapons. G-D is our source of energy and stamina. The IDF today are our main enemies because they will legitimize the division of the land with the Palestinians. We are at war and war does cannot be won inside the Parliament or in newspapers headlines, but on the battlefield

Do you work for a foreign goverment?

and that is why all his commandments not to kill,not to steal,not lie,do not raise false testimony,not worship images made by man to distract the mind,love the neighbor as one,God is the union,confidence,respect and loyalty among men for a living and existence in peace,and why God is the mind supernatural which is above all men,God is equality and solidarity,God is light on the miseries of men,the spell of the souls,God is the torah and the prophets:treat others as you want to be treated,God is simple and clear,all the rest comes from finite men and has nothing to do with the large infinite thought

This is one of the things that sets us apart from the Arabs. There have not been any instances of Jews killing police or soldiers or even trying. I don't think the Jew that threw the brick at the car intended to murder. Even so, he should get the maximum penalty. However it's unacceptable for generals to talk about targeting fellow Jews like they are the enemy just because their ideology is different from theirs.

Em , what about Yigal Amir?

Is not Sarah B's post.

Tell that to Prime Minister Rabin. Stones thrown by Jews at other Jews can kill, just as easily as those thrown by Pals. Jews are supposed to obey the law, too. Israel elects it's leaders. If you don't like the laws, elect new leaders and change those laws. These people are acting like criminals and should be treated as such.

to have two different rules of engagement with Jews and with Arabs?

There is a either a biblical mandate for the State of Israel, or there is no mandate at all. This observer supports the biblical Israel as the only basis for its existence. Make up your mind Benjamin Netanyahu or perhaps Israelis, if not Jews can be Jews anywhere - or just citizens!

Israeli beauty Esti Ginzburg lammed her fellow model Bar Refaeli for letting down their country by wangling her way out of the military service. Working at an IDF reception base, Ginzburg was explaining to new recruits why joining up is so important.

You are tough law and order guys, we all know it. Thankfully, Israel being a democracy, with an intelligent and ethical populace, knows that if there is such a law against settlers, it can be changed to the benefit of the settlers, Israel, and the IDF. You (IDF) are heroes to the Jewish people. Your image was tarnished in gaza, and with the exception of #7, #11, and other martinets, I can't believe the IDF would want to garner any further disgrace by kicking more Jews out of their homes

"Civil war" what planet are you in? 60 to 70 tenagers who are missinformed attack the IDF does not represent a majority of the settlers (300,000) who obey the law. Therefore calm down with your American day time type drama and get a grip of yourself. People like you will get these kids hurt. Afterall if you have access to Israeli chanel 2 news you would learn that the police carried away a box of "weapons" plastic toy weapons. Are these the weapons your refering to? Go back to watching Ellen or Anderson Cooper

Sarah Whilst the IDF are immorally being used to evacuate and destroy the settlements ( a job for private security & contractors who only care about the business ) its not the IDF who make those choices its the governments and the IDF are just ordered to do the dirty work. You want to blame somebody then look to Bibi because he makes the political decisions.

You can try to hide the truth from you, but we all know - and this is not on channel 2 or on ABC News - that the domestic consensus in Israel is being broken by liberal groups who want to divide the land. The IDF is here to ensure a solution of partition. Or you've never heard that they evacuate Jews from the Territories? They are obeying a law that is not the law of reason. The country is divided and if we don't act now, we'll risk to lose everything. Stop saying shtuyot and fight for your land.

At last, a smart contribution! Merry Hanuccah!

Im an IDF troop, I volountered for the army to protect Jews, not to confront my brothers and demolish Jewish homes!!! If any Jew commits a crime that's police business to deal with it not army's. Any commander that gives an order to fire at Jews is a criminal and has to be judged and dismissed, so as any soldier raising his weapon at Jew!

Yes, Birdi, i am afraid it is.
