magav, border guard, it's a police unit, not army

The police went in to legally apprehend a know terrorist and the population mobs them. This is when the IDF needs to target the terrorist with a missile strike and to hell with the "civilian" casualties. If they're protecting a known terrorist, then they get what they deserve.

IT'S TIME FOR ISRAEL TO PROTECT IT'S WARRIORS...police, IDF, all need support against the PERPETUAL RAGE of the JEW despising crazies, squatters, beggars and thieves. Where is the electronic CROWD CONTROL???

The PLO is behind this no doubt, especially now that they have EU backing! Israel should support the Basques and Corsicans for their LEGITIMATE fight for independence!

but I need a Jewish Home/Strong Israel voter to explain to me how this is going to be prevented by annexing area C...I know this is our land, I know we are not invaders, but I am also a pragmatist, please help me understand your view.

to use life ammunition, IDF is much too civilzed still for that rogues!

Three?Four? Is this the army that his government has supported? An army that flees the enemy? What´s going on ,please???

someone has to be kidding this would NEVER happen here, if cops would go to arrest some murderer, and a bunch of thugs would beat them back!

But Americans are using drones to fight terrorism in Aghanistan and Pakistan with large civilian casuatlies in the very nose of ICC, EU and the UN. Any difference?

evidently they are not equipped with weapons, so any bunch of kids can chase them away with stones. and they are thinking of attacking iran, just too funny to contemplate.

The IDF troops were ''seeking to arrest a top (Palestinian) terrorist operative." Drones cannot arrest a person!

So in an effort to prevent an escalation of violence in the West Bank, the decision was made to increase arrests, done in broad daylight. Sounds to like the government is trying to stir up a little violence to show the world why their settlement expansion policy is justified. After all, who can negotiate with these violent people?

....that IDF went seeking to arrest a top (Palestinian) terrorist operative BUT... encountered 500! Should´t a drones be utilized?

Will you still be laughing when the powers that be unleash the IDF? I suspect not.

dealing with the palislimians!

most Canadians have something intelligent to say. What happened to you?

i think you are swallowing leftist propaganda. the left tries to brainwash people by claiming that somehow by giving up land to the arabs we will have a stronger jewish majority in the rest of israel. nothing could be further from the truth and it is on its basis completely illogical: the arabs will be there one way of another, having them as part of an enemy state certainly does not make us safer. in any case our demographics are fine: both haredim and settlers have really high birth rates and arab rates are dropping: dont smoke the leftist dope!

you are truly a grotesque troll..

the S.A.R. on automatic and firing into the rioters. Riot shot guns with 00 shot and grenades. It is either the terrorists and their supporters or us. I prefer to rid the world of these terrorist scum. bibi and buraq are not the people we need to lead us in a war against terrorism or just to defend Israel. Neither is shelly, zippy the pin head or moo-fass. W need new people in the knesset and we need to remove old man peres from public life.

Would you rather the IDF shoot into the crowd? Oh, that will disperse them quickly enough -- they are, after all, nothing but cowards -- you cannot have it both ways. So, what's your preference? Warning: I'm setting you up. Heads I win; tails you lose.

The IDF is trying to civil in the face serious life taking violence, which is not done anywhere, not even in USA, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Russia, France, Germany, Britain, to avoid world outrage, the EU, the UN, and the threat of filing charges at the ICC. But the Americans are using both arms and drones to fight terrorism in Aghanistan and Pakistan with large civilian casualties in the very nose of ICC, without protest from EU - Ashton - that lonely woman, and the UN. Any difference? Look at how violent they are in the pictures and videos, yet the western press, the EU, the UN are silent.

The IDF should use the same methods as used by the Syrian Army as the Palestinians have no objection to such methods.

''Should'nt drones be used?" If the intention of the IDF was to kill the 500 Palestinians, then yes, drones should have been used. The IDF were not prepared for 500 rioting Palestinians & they sure as hell did'nt think to use a drone.

Judea and Samaria...ON THE SPOT !

WELL SAID. SEND THEM TO JORDAN IMMEDIATELY. YEHUDA, SHOMRON/JUDEA, SAMARIA BELONG TO ISRAEL. A UNITED JERUSALEM IS THE CAPITAL OF ISRAEL FOR EVER.
