1. Any Jew who would engage in such activities doesn't deserve
Henry from New York ,   USA   (02.07.12)
to call themselves Jewish. It might be presumptuous of me, and I apologise, but if I were Israeli, I would want such people in my country either.
2. I dont Believe a word of this nonsense
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.07.12)
This is more anti semitic propoganda from banana republics trying to drag nice jewish boys into the mire. From my sources, they were being used as mules but the saddles wouldnt fit properly so they had to pack the baby powder into their socks. An obvious case of mistaken identity... This is so appalling. I demand Israel strike Colombia with at least 4 tactical nuclear missiles. And lets get the FARC out of here.
3. skanks! how could they?!

4. #2. Dear Sarah
Deena ,   Colombia/Israel   (02.07.12)
Dear Sarah, You have simple no idea of what you are talking about. Which sources do you mean??? Sad to say but what is being reported is true. The area where these men are is a highly touristic place, visited specially by israelies and some people made their business there. There are no innocent people here, they probably just turned to be very evident.
5. WOW! bet their families are beaming with pride - NOT!
Talula ,   Israel   (02.07.12)
6. Colombia la nuestra!
RM ,   SF-CA   (02.07.12)
Colombia is one of the most diverse countries in LA, and is very welcoming of foreigners if they bring progress, order and legitimate business. In fact, Colombia saved and welcomed many jews during WWII. Unfortunately, lately, many people from Israel have come to Colombia to cross the line of decency to try to do what would not be tolerated in their middle east desert tribes. Those persons should be in jail. Please stop messing with Colombia, and protecting criminals like Y Klein; have the dignity to deport him to Colombia to face his atrocities against Colombians.
7. Pretty disgusting if true
Ron ,   California   (02.07.12)
Leaving aside the non-essential of their ethnic background, this is a pretty disgusting allegation, if true. They should face a fair trial (and hopefully not be whisked away "somehow" as sometimes happens to avoid trial). What is definitely true is that Y. Klein is a criminal and needs to face justice in Colombia for what he's done. As far as Sarah B., I can't tell if she's joking or a lunatic. If it's a joke, not sure I see the humor or need for it.
8. Congratulations
Francis Cardenas ,   Vienna, USA   (02.08.12)

9. Honestly Deena
Paulb ,   Australia   (04.04.12)
Do you really think Sarah meant that to be taken seriously?
10. Mercenary.
AlbertE. ,   USA   (04.04.12)
This should surprise no one. It has long been reputed that Pablo Escobar employed the best mercenaries in the world English and Israeli. That special 120 Colombian police unit that finally killed Escobar had to fight and kill many of those mercenaries, and I would assume Israelis among them.
11. to interpret
bennie ,   Galil   (04.06.12)
