1. Here's a thought
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.22.14)
The United States Embassy in Tel Aviv is United States soil. Israel does not have the death penalty for terrorism. The United States does, and capital punishment is in order even when plans are thwarted. Israel should extradite these three terrorists to the United States. At the very least, it will be three fewer potential releasees from prison in those ridiculous mass releases that the United States shoves down Israel's throat, even though I doubt that any American president would be caught dead pushing for the release of terrorists who plot against the United States. Israel -- that's a different story, though, isn't it? Hypocrisy is alive and well at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
2. al-Qaeda attack
Bar-Chama ,   Santa Fe   (01.22.14)
We capture them only to release them again soon after. Hang them by their cojones...

Peace talks should be stopped Dead in it tracks per abu mazen Stated if Jerusalem isn't capital Then Piece Talks are OFF!!! Maybe Israeli's Should All Stand on their Roof Tops And End This Farse Already!!! Baruch Ha Shem
4. Give them a fair trial...........
Ben ,   USA   (01.22.14)
Then upon conviction HANG THEM. No need to worry about releasing them later.
5. TODAH RABAH
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (01.22.14)
Will this swift action prompt a "Thank you" from Kerry and Obama? On behalf of myself, and the thousands of Israel supporters of America, I say "Thank You, Shin Bet." AM YISRAEL CHAI.
6. Now these terrorists can be dropped off at home..
Ivan ,   South Africa   (01.22.14)
from a helicopter at 3000 foot...
7. Question
Handala ,   Jerusalem. Palestine   (01.22.14)
why would a Palestinian chose to act according to Al Qaeda ideology, meanwhile he has all the reasons to act against israel based on the daily torture, humiliation, racism, seperation, crimes etc. he faces?! the israeli government should investigate what the Shin Bet is smoking these days. the story above cannot happen in Bollywood!

9. Let Them Go!
Barry O. Bamaaa ,   Hawaii and DC   (01.22.14)
These activists should be released as a gesture----that will bring peace. Besides, they are not al Qaida---I beat them already, remember?
10. Cut all funds to Pals
Observer ,   Canada   (01.22.14)
Handouts from EU, US, Canada and others it's about time they start to work and stop the money transfers to them.!They have money for Grads in Gaza and what we see is that the only things they can produce is terror.

Devorah   (01.22.14)
I like your idea, and in a healthy U.S. administration, action would be taken against them. But this is the Hussein administration, the one that didn't give a flying flip about the U.S. embassy, nor its personnel, in Benghazi. So, if these three clowns were extradited to the U.S., they would probably be invited to a celebration in their honour at the White House where Hussein, Eric Holder and John Kerry would fight to take selfies with them and Hitlery Clinton would run around the room screaming, "What difference did it make? They were just planning. They didn't hurt anybody!".
12. Turn them into Collaborators
AG ,   Queens New York   (01.22.14)
Turn them into collaborators and use them to fry bigger fish within Hamas. Cut off their heads.
13. Five foreign operatives apprehended
yosef eytan ,   Eilat   (01.22.14)
Israel has every right to eliminate these terrorists as they breach the border. I hope whatever they can provide through interrogation is worth their eventual release and further crimes in the future. But they really need to be tried, convicted and hung in the town square in Ramallah.
14. Let Them Go!
Barry O. Bamaaa ,   Hawaii and DC   (01.22.14)
These activists should be released as a gesture----that will bring peace. Besides, they are not al Qaida---I beat them already, remember?
15. #7, 8, Al Taqqyia, how nice of Muslims deceiving Infidels!

17. Terminate 100,000 Arabs in retaliation
Leon   (01.22.14)
and the terror will stop.
18. #17, right on!
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.22.14)
19. Obama's "core Al Qaeda"
CJK   (01.22.14)
here we have obama's "core al qaeda," allegedly decimated, planning attacks inside israel and on the united states embassy in tel aviv.
20. Shin Bet
Debbie ,   Israel   (01.22.14)
No need to worry. They'll be out of Israeli prison in no time at all, in the next prisoner release. They'll be welcomed home as great heroes.

You might have plenty of fools who think that you can hurt us, but you will never defeat us
24. Death Penalty sounding pretty good, eh?
Cameron ,   USA   (01.22.14)
25. #21:NO! Please don't send them here!
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (01.22.14)
They'll be treated like royalty: sent to a fine federal prison where they'll be fed 3 nourishing meals a day; sleep like lords in cozy cells; play basketball and attend "hypnotherapy" provided by some NY quack. Leave them b'Eretz, under the tender loving care of SHIN BET - those men [and women] with BAYTZIM!
