2. to #1: where did that come from?
Adam ,   Ashdod, Israel   (01.26.12)
What does this story have to do with the conflict? It's a crazy, funny (because it ended well) story. That's all. Do people in galut realize there is a life here outside the conflict? Give it a rest for a few minutes, my friend. Relax and laugh a little.
3. #1, one can only hope!

5. That is one tough SOB!
William ,   Israel   (01.26.12)
Never underestimate the naivete and brute strength of toddlers! I know, I have two of them. Thank goodness the baby is ok. What a great story to share when they grow up.
6. Now,I want to understand how this became news!
Keren ,   IL-BR   (01.27.12)
Do they call Ynet?How was that? Many people go through bizarre things everyday and are not news. What is the key to become famous?
7. What a wonderful sign. Cutting off the head of the snake
Rivkah   (01.27.12)
(devil symbol) is something the Messiah will do. Scriptures says the devil wounds the heel of the seed of woman (Messiah has nail holes in his heels and wrists) and the seed of woman destroys the head of the snake. What a wonderful omen in the action of a child. When he is a little older, watch him grab a lion by the main and punch its nose like David did long ago.
8. Reminds me of the story from Greek mythology
usa   (01.27.12)
of the baby Hercules who strangled two snakes in his cradle. Maybe this kid's father should demand a paternity test to make sure the real dad ish't Zeus!

17. Genesis 3:15
Rica ,   Florida.USA   (01.27.12)
I know everything is possible. I am not saying the second coming of the Messiah is from an Arab decent. But I enjoy GOD' humor. I hope you do too.

US_Exceptionalist   (01.27.12)
Since the Meshiach is supposed to be a Jew, I guess you never picked up on the fact that the child in this story was not Jewish?
22. To 1-9
Eddy ,   Florida, USA   (01.27.12)
I don't know about the child, but we better investigate the father... He looks very very suspicious... Hmmm... VERY!!!
23. he is not arab but druze...
shlomi ,   Jerusalem   (01.27.12)
24. #6 - How did it become news?
Righteous Zionist ,   Israel   (01.27.12)
Proverbially 'man bites dog' makes the headlines, so why not this?
25. there is only 1 way to explain
zionist forever   (01.27.12)
It was obviously a Jewish snake and thats why the arab attacked it.
26. Druze
Nemr ,   Brasil   (01.27.12)
To all ignorant talkbackers: This boy is an Israeli druze, live in Schfaram(Israel), in the future, he will be enlisted to IDF, so why all this racist TB? Only 19 and 23 Tb are wright here.
27. it brings new meaning to the idea of a fatal snakbite
zionist forever   (01.27.12)
28. This is newsworthy
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.27.12)
Not necessarily because this one year old infant, without the full complement of teeth, bit of the head of a juvenile coin snake. It's a cautionary tale to parents, and people generally. For one thing, it could just as easily have been an adult coin snake, which is a constrictor and could have taken the life of this little boy. Worse still, it could have been a tsefa -- a viper -- which is highly venomous. I know it is very tempting to open all the doors and windows of a home to get the benefit of fresh air (at least until the weather gets prohibitively cold). Just be a little judicious -- leave doors shut -- and trim carefully shrubbery from which a slithering creature can gain access to a home through an open window. This incident could -- but thankfully did not -- have had a very different outcome. I, for one, am very glad that the baby is unharmed.
29. 12 little hercules.
lola ,   australia   (01.27.12)
