1. Jewish teens indicted, but no arab rioters, WHY ? ? ? ? ? ?
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (12.27.12)
2. 1 Perhaps because they set several cars ablaze..
Avi   (12.27.12)
If this is too difficult for you to comprehend let me know ill refer you you to some help. Take care.
3. "price tag"
David ,   Germany   (12.27.12)
The difference is that in Israel they are charged for crimes. In Arab areas they get streets named after them!
4. Cowboys (Jews w/guns) and Indians (Palestinians) land theft
Steven Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (12.27.12)
5. Dazzler laser
Todd ,   Tot   (12.27.12)
Safe the dazzler laser will repelle any hooligans mount it with a tracker could work
6. Israeli Snipers Needed
emanon ,   USA   (12.27.12)
Imagine a sharpshooter / sniper shooting the Molotov cocktail while it is still in the hands of the terrorist. A few crispy critters created that way and I think even the terrorstinians will realize that throwing fire bombs at Israelis is not a wise idea.
7. riot control gear
Lucy ,   UK   (12.27.12)
Riot control gear doesn't seem to control these rioters very well. I think a few live bullets would be much more effective.
8. To: No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (12.27.12)
Is Poland guilty of land theft when Germany was forced to cede East Prussia following World War II? When Italy was forced to cede the province of Istria to then-Yugoslavia, were the Yugoslavians guilty of land theft? And let's not forget Japan -- was the United States guilty of land theft when Japan was forced to cede 90% of Okinawa? Or seven islands to Russia -- was that land theft, too? And ALL of the land aforedescribed were sovereign territories. Judea and Samaria are nonsovereign. The Arabs have waged six wars of aggression -- do you really expect Israel to compensate them for their violence? Or for their decades of terror? Israel has already given back the Sinai and Gaza -- which has proven to be a huge mistake. There is no reason to think that giving the ersatz "Palestinians" more land will make them change their ways. And since Israel was the victor in all six wars -- well, sic fratur crustulum.
9. Tough response required
Get Real ,   UK   (12.27.12)
All these incidents of rioting and attacks. Rocks and bombs being thrown. Only 2 arrests? Do Israelis have to die before the IDF be allowed to respond with tougher methods? Inaction just generates more violence from the Palestinians.
10. #4 Well, look who is talking about stealing land from
A ,   Belgium   (12.27.12)
Indians, or to be more respectful, Native Americans. Care to remind us what MN means, in the language of its displaced owners...hypocrite?
11. Price Tag operation reeks of False Flag
Tracy W   (12.27.12)
No way Jewish kids would risk life and limb to enter an Arab village, much less to vandalize cars. The blurb on this article says a lot. Arabs throw bombs, Jewish kids get arrested and indicted for alleged vandalism. While Arabs are allowed to riot and attack soldiers and civilians (don't forget all those daily atatcks on motorists) - the only ones who seem to get arrested with a lot of publicity are Jews accused without evidence of Price Tag operations.
12. Sarah B #8 is back...
Alex   (12.28.12)
With the background of 85-90 % of the Palis having direct ancestry to the Jews and other Hebrews, forcibly being converted to Islam in 1012 AD (el-Hakim Edict), and thus being entitled to the divine promise to Jacob from G-d almighty, yes then it is landtheft far beyond any international law. If you, Sarah B, deny any of Jacobs seed his or her right to reside in the Holy land and if you deny the Moslem and Christian Hebrews their divine rights, then please deal with G-d Almighty in this specific question. The Tanach does NOT specify that the land SPECIFICALLY belongs to Rabbinical Jews, but solely to "the seed of Jacob", that means anybody in direct bloodline to Jacob, Rabbinical Jews, Samaritans, Karaites, Moslem Hebrews, Christian Hebrews and so forth. If you donĀ“t accept that, please send some of your overheated postings directly to the Almighty....

I see the similarity.. When Jews get their guns, only then the palis run away with theirs... The Indians too, are good people, who obide the law and take care of what is theirs... Don't you insult them, benassi.... And thanks for the compliment though..."Cowboys" know best, how and why to defend what is theirs...
14. Stop calling it West Bank...
Nachman ,   California, US   (12.28.12)
Stop calling it "West Bank". It is Judea and Samaria.
15. Figured why no Intifada in Syria ?
Mamamia   (12.28.12)
learn from the Russian and Iranian not the EU or US

Jennie ,   Israel/US   (12.28.12)
I have never read such a bunch of lies and insane tirades...The people, who actually Jordanians, who call themselves palestinians, have decided to innihilate the Jewish state..This makes them our enemies...We know exactly where they come from...They a not of our seed, Alex and are not entitled to anything...Havind "said" that, you need to know an important fact :they were refugees from Jordan, who fled to Gaza around 1984..They became palestinians pnly when arafat became their chief terrorists... Israel is providing these people with water, electricity, medication, hospital treatments, food, etc...In reply, they are bombing our schools and homes, causing savage terror acts...Your theory and your whole post is only a wishful thinking... Islam was born around the year 870AD ...These people have no historical link with the ancient Hebrews...
17. To 16, Sorry to say, but you are...
Alex   (12.28.12)
...so brainwashed with your own propaganda. Eminent Jewish Zionists like Israel Belkind, David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Ben Zvi were all into this concept. None of them were insane and none of them were liars. You just look up the facts in a correct manner without blowing your mind in that uncontrolled fashion. It is a very well known fact all around of the world, that there are a number of crypto-Jews. This is a part of European history, especially in Spain and Portugal. The same goes with the Moslem world and especially with Pali Moslems. Go get the facts instead of denying the seed of Jacob their divine inheritence (if you dare to mess with G-d Almighty ?)
18. to 17
Jennie ,   Israel/US   (12.28.12)
The brainwashing belongs to you, Alex...Could you oblige and "tell" me, what was the concept of the "eminent" Zionists? Because I think, you trying to say, that some of the Jewish Zionists believed, that we are genetiaclly linked to Muslims ? Then, you must inform me what is the source of your knowledge. We can't be linked in any way..Judaism is about 4000 years old...Islam is about 800...I am not brainwashed..I lived the events, I am "talking" and writing about, right there, on the border with Egypt and Jordan, during the "birth" of the so-called Palestinian People"..What hapened was, that in 1984 in Gaza, Yassir arafat organized the then Jordanian refugees (future palestinians) and many of gazans into the first terror organization (fattach), became their leader and proclaimed themselves as the palestinian people...That has become their excuse to try to innihilate the Jewish State...And the rest is history in the making...
19. To Jennie 18
Alex   (12.28.12)
Did I ever talk about a "Palestinian" people? When and where ? Now that you have calmed down a bit, I can explain to you: Jews and other Hebrews living in the Holy land in that time (1012 AD) were by the el-Hakim edict forced to convert to Islam or leave the place. The overwhelming majority loved their G-d-given land so much so that they converted and thus remained. A small minority refused to convert and were either put to the sword, went on living in the hiding or were thrown out. Many years later after the death a minority of them reconverted to their original religion, BUT the majority remained within Islam. Thus a substantial amount of people living in the Holy land had direct blood-links to Jacob, but being Islamic in their official religion. To make it easy: Those we call "Palis" today are in 85-90 % the descendants of these ethnically Hebrew Moslems. What is the problem with that? Forget about Arafat. Has nothing to do with this at all, acutally his balblabla about Philistines (an extinct nation) is nothing more than crap. And YES the three Zionists I mentioned in my previous postings were on this line too. Have you never heard of Crypto-Jews in Spain and Portugal ? These are equivalent Crypto-Jews (or Crypto-Hebrews, because many were Samaritans) of the Arab world. If YNET allows it, I could even post a good link for you to read in my next talkback ?
20. 19 Alex,People who rejected..
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (12.29.12)
Judaism,willingly or not, can t claim for the Jewish heritage,Israel. If they want to do so,they have first to convert to Judaism.
21. to 20
Alex   (12.29.12)
Sure, they at least have to accept the existence of the state of Israel and not attempting to wipe it out. Still, the divine promise to Jacob, found in the Tanach, does not define only Rabbinical Jews (which per definition were non-existent at that time). It is explicitly directed to his seed. That includes Jews, Samaritans, Karaites and other Hebrews in direct bloodline - even if they today happen to be Moslem or Christian. To me Israel is the "Israelite" or "Jacobian" heritage -as defined very clearly in the divine promise. It is weird to see people looking for "lost tribes" in China, India and Africa - while at your doorstep there is an abundance of Arabic speeking Hebrews, who also definitely are included in the eternal promise given to Jacob. What human being is prepared to deny them their divine rights?
