1. More left wing garbage!
(04.08.14)
2. Author out of contact with reality
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (04.08.14)
Is the author not aware of what happens to protesting settlers? Let Mr. Haber go and observe first hand rather than give us his unfounded opinion of what he thinks (therefore it is) happens. Settlers are subject to much physical force such as beatings, tasers, powerful water spray (sometimes with dye), and getting hit by horses (of the police). Sorry, this opinion should be withdrawn and the author should do a bit of investigative reporting before writing such perverted articles.
3. security forces won't lift a finger to prevent next...?
Eshkol Hakofer   (04.08.14)
shame on the state and it's government.
4. Settler Sicarii violence brings destruction to Israel, again
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (04.08.14)
"The Jewish Amoraim attributed the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem as punishment from God for the "baseless hatred" that pervaded Jewish society at the time."
5. lawless settler thugs above the law
Nancy ,   rEHOVOT   (04.08.14)
About time they raised that vipers nest known as Yitzhar to the ground. Better still let them become part of Palestine, hope they dont cry out for the IDF to come and protect them, sorry folks we got a flat tire. They are traitors and deserve no protection.
6. Actually: enough of this"price-tag" scam; time for real
tom ,   tel aviv   (04.08.14)
offensive resistance to Islamo-fascist advances on our Land. Scribbling graffiti/puncturing tires is juvenile & ridiculous!
7. History
Michael ,   Haifa   (04.08.14)
In the early 1930's the Brown Shirts attacked Jewish properties and Jews without fear of the Law punishing them.
8. Laughable
michael ,   Shomron   (04.08.14)
The only thing more laughable than this nonsensical dribble is the fact that just above there is an article about how the government carried out collective punishment against the ISRAELI CITIZENS who live in Yitzhar (yes, settlers are citizens too you discriminatory ba$****$.
9. Eitan Haber - known moronic quantity
Leon   (04.08.14)
Adds zero value in his ravings, forgets he's a Jewish settler too, self-hating leftie looney who's a real genuine moron.
10. Simply racism
Dan   (04.08.14)
One law for Jews, another for Arabs. This is the kind of thing that undermines Israeli legitimacy and support internationally, and places weapons in the hands of Hamas and the anti-Israel lobby. Suicidal idiocy.
11. Thugs
Jimmy ,   USA   (04.08.14)
these criminals have a political cover, but eventually they will turn against the state who is protecting them, and only then both will be sorry.
12. Let us really investigate price tag
Daniel ,   TA - Il   (04.08.14)
and probably we will have findings similar to those of the 'eyal' gang or ravishai aviv... ergo, a more than thick shabac involvement to demonize all who do to comply with the left's dictature
13. Eitan. Price Tag Attacks vs Terror Rockets
Netanya ,   Netanya   (04.08.14)
The news spends at least 10 times the amount of time reporting price tag attacks as it does terrorist rockets coming from all around Israel, Gaza, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria. Maybe you need to buy a tv or read the news online. Terror attacks are hardly mentioned, sometimes I need to look for a very long time to even find one paper, in Israel, who even reported an attack. Price tag attacks and the perpetrators are much more publicized and sought out for punishment, so I consider this article a piece of crap.
14. Are judges in Israel above the law? Absolutely not!
Danny   (04.08.14)
I mean Torah laws. As long as judges and the secular do not abide the law, they have no right to judge others and certainly not to throw Jews out of their legal Jewish homes in the Jewish homeland.
15. above the law
(04.08.14)
Some Jews are above the law, but they are not Right wing or Haredim. Amutot Barak: Israel's worst case of illegal election funding. All perpetrators are Leftists. no prosecution. Greek Island Affair: Israel's worst case of political bribes. All perpetrators are Leftists. no prosecution. Goldfarb Affair: Israel's most "in your face" case of political bribes. All perpetrators are Leftists. no prosecution. Amona: worst case of police ultraviolence against protestors, worst case of internal investigation cover up. worst case of police destroying evidence. All perpetrators worked under command of Leftists. No prosecution.
16. The mayor of Chelm speaks, yet again..
michael Pielet ,   israel   (04.08.14)
No one is above the law, except maybe the corrupt left who makes the law.
17. #7 so you weren't arrested then?
Izzy   (04.08.14)
18. no. 4 - violence doesn't stop Arabs from expanding in ME
(04.08.14)
19. #16 Michael i have an idea
Nancy   (04.08.14)
Well you could always leave the country- bon voyage
20. a brave call for law & decency - that will again go unheeded
Rafi ,   US   (04.08.14)
Of course the problem is not with police commanders... but with a feckless and sold-out government
21. what is terrorism?
Ephraim   (04.08.14)
Slashing tires of a military vehicle isn't terror. Destroying civilian homes in the middle of the night, is.
22. A Burp in a Hurricane
A Simple Jew ,   Tel Aviv   (04.09.14)
The Arabs have a 100 year history of violence against Jews. Abbas has threatened another wave of violence. The Shin Bet is not there to oppress Jews, they are there to prevent Arabs from murdering Jews. Jews are peaceful, unless of course the government wantonly destroys their homes.
