1. Tzahal well done
CJK   (06.17.14)
the orders of netanyahu and his commanders are very appropriate. no stone must be left unturned in the attempt to find the boys and at the same time to destroy hamas. regardless of how many arrests are made, hamas must be destroyed.
2. Do NOT release them until the boys are returned
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.17.14)
even if they're not guilty. Let the Arabs help in the search if they want these arrested back.
3. Art Tsonis "arrest and try ...suspects"
Stan ,   Israel   (06.17.14)
For your information, many Palestinians are never brought to trial and simply held in detention for years. (Sometimes more than 5 years) The occupation has destroyed the morality and humanity of the Israeli people, as well as that of many of their Jewish supporters overseas.
4. We cannot permit Hamas to control East Palestine
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (06.17.14)
And they are attempting to FORCE Abbas hand by creating these crises inside the West Bank Any shadow of support for Hamas in the West Bank..with these and other developments has completely evaporated because Hamas can be seen for what they are..Extremist, Fanatics, Murderers and CORRUPT TO THE CORE And having pulled the wool over Abbas eyes are emboldened to declare now that the struggle after all is for 'Islamic Republic of Greater Palestine from Jordan to the West Bank to Israel Gaza and Sinai' Be warned
5. One question....one result.
Nora Tel Aviv   (06.17.14)
How many Hamasniks are there in the West Bank compared to the number of Fatahniks in Gaza ? Result: Hamas will invade the West Bank. It`s only a question of time.
6. 200 arrested?
Dani ,   NZ   (06.17.14)
Good starting point.
7. the day after....
Shai ,   Ramat Gan   (06.17.14)
  We the Judeans must start preparing ourselves mentally to reunite with our ancestral homeland, Judea & Samaria, by envisioning hundreds of thousands of our people coming from Europe, America and other places and making the major cities of Shechem, Hebron, Beit El and Jericho, their homes. Within a timeframe of 15-25 years, we can have the Arabs leave those cities for a better future for themselves elsewhere with a solid financial aid of for example some $100,000 per family. Those who worry about the money should know that every family who will come to live in Israel from Europe and America will bring on average around $100,000 in capital and asset so it will balance each other out. 
8. Is Abbas on drugs?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.17.14)
"Abbas' stance is that the Palestinians must continue working incessantly to bring to the release of Palestinian prisoners, whose release was agreed upon in every signing of a permanent accord with Israel." That ship has sailed. Hamas may have been the thugs that carried out the kidnapping of the three Jewish boys, but Abbas engineered it. He needed leverage against Israel to get his precious terrorist prisoners in Israel released, especially since the hunger strike was producing nothing but a lot of really skinny prisoners. But his thinking is way off base. Israel is not going to release "palestinian" terrorists and murderers. There is not going to be a "permanent accord with Israel." Abbas wants to have his cake, and eat it, too. All that he has achieved is that Israel will annex Judea and Samaria, and Israel will deport all West Bank "palestinians" to Gaza. That Israel has discovered weapons caches and incriminating information foolishly stored on computers and laptops is nice -- we've set back terrorist efforts against Israel considerably. But make no mistake -- the boys must be released unharmed, no bargaining, no exchanges -- or things will grow worse for the "palestinians." Very much worse.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. We're cleaning out the cesspool, to make it fit for Jewish habitation once we annex Judea and Samaria and deport the illegal "palestinian" squatters to Gaza, where they can all work together to refine their unity government and build a thriving state. We should have done it in 1967 -- it would have saved the lives of several thousand innocent Jews -- but at least it will happen now. The "palestinians" have been a cancer in our midst for far too long. Everyone knows what needs to be done to cancers -- they must be excised. There's a poetic justice to it, too -- one million Jews were expelled from their homes in Arab and Moslem lands with little more than the clothes on their backs. We are going to return the favor, measure for measure. We're finally going to exact payback, and you know what? Machiavelli was right. Revenge REALLY is a dish best served cold. How do you like us now, sluggo?
10. Kidnapping = zionist dirty tricks
John ,   CT SA   (06.17.14)
These kidnappings are the work of the zionist israeli government in order to discredit the new Palestinian Unity government. The international community has recognised this new Palestinian government therefore the zionist government wants to play victim like it always does. Hamas cannot be behind these kidnappings as they will have a lot to lose. This is definitely the dirty tricks of the zionist israeli government, nothing else
11. Proud of our Army
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.17.14)
Our enemies can suck it...
12. Keep on...
Beary White ,   Norway   (06.17.14)
Those teens must be found alive. If no result during search, start deporting member og the PA and hamass to Jordan with NO RIGHTS TO RETURN
13. nablus,jenin,qualqya . .they're all terrorist towns & should
Moshe ,   Usa   (06.17.14)
be deleted,bombed & leveled into dust.
14. Kidnapping organised by RELEASED GESTURE/SWAP prisoners
Alan ,   SA   (06.17.14)
15. Free Our Brothers
Z. Taff, Y. Buchris ,   K. Vradim, M. Hila   (06.17.14)
Less than three years have passed since Gilad Shalit was liberated after spending five years in captivity. The slogans, posters and yellow ribbons which still remain fresh in our minds were used to demonstrate to the world that we, as Israelis, value the life of each and every citizen as if he or she were a member of our own family. It is with this in mind, that all Israelis come together today united as one people in support of the immediate return of Eyal Yifrach, Gil-Ad Shaer and Naftali Frenkel who were abducted by a group of terrorists whose sole function is to play on the fears of innocent men, women and children. We support our dear soldiers of the IDF who have been working diligently day and night searching for the whereabouts of our 3 boys. In addition, we give our unconditional support to the families of Eyal, Gil-Ad and Naftali and ask you to be strong and keep your faith with the hope that your children will, G-d willing, be returned home safely and in good health immediately
16. Netanyahu
(06.17.14)
Everyone knows that the Hamas people do not care about a stint in an Israeli jail. Unpleasant? Maybe. Insufferable? No. It is likely that the kidnapping wasn't ordered from above, but was a local initiative that would receive support from Hamas if successful. It seems Netanyahu is less focused on releasing the boys, and more in using the kidnapping as an excuse to intervene in internal Palestinian politics: strengthening the hand of Fatah at the expense of Hamas.
17. Arrest them all!
Albrecht ,   EU   (06.17.14)
And then wonder about a "tarrorism". You have a huge weaponry and an almost defenceless "enemy". How can you resist this temptation?
18. To: No. 17
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.17.14)
Oh, I imagine it's rather like the Allies were unable to resist bombing defenseless German civilians to hell and gone during World War II. Kind of took the air out of the German people's sails, you know? They grew somewhat less fond of their fuhrer, you know after the complete destruction of Dresden and the bombing of Hamburg. Koln, too. Even bombed the cathedral. But the Allies did it because the Germans needed to be shown who's in charge.. Well, the "palestinians" are experiencing a similar need. For now, Israel's in charge. Once we deport them all to Gaza, they'll be in charge of themselves ... and then you will see them tear into one another. They won't be able to resist the temptation, you know? Terrorist scum remain terrorist scum.
19. I wouldn't put it past Israel....
Robert ,   Australia   (06.17.14)
.....to stage a fake abduction in an attempt to garner international sympathy. It's par for the course.
20. To: Facebook Art Tsonis
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.17.14)
What a disgusting comment you made to Marco Singer. And decidedly untrue. You're Greek, after all, aren't you? Pure filth is what you are. I take a great deal of satisfaction in knowing that you cannot stand the thought of Israel asserting itself and reaming the asses of the terrorist 'palestinian" rabble. It's only going to get worse for them, culminating in what we should have done in June 1967 -- throw them the hell out of the Jewish State.
21. To: Facebook Frederick Cross
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.17.14)
Don't worry. Israel will annex Judea and Samaria, and send the illegal Arab squatters therein to Gaza, where they can build their fictitious state .... just as soon as they stop killing one another, that is. Judea and Samaria are Israel's heartland. We will NEVER give it up. Especially since Judea and Samaria are nonsovereign territories, reacquired by Israel in the course of fighting -- and winning -- a DEFENSIVE war against Jordan. Under all known precepts of international law and the rules which govern military engagements, the land is Israel's to settle, retain and even annex. We will annex the land, and send the "palestinians" to Gaza.
22. teens?
observer ,   Egypt   (06.17.14)
are the abducted persons settlers or soldiers?
23. #17 Albrecht
Max M ,   Israel   (06.17.14)
We appreciate your support, but we can't just "arrest them all" That's what the nazi's did, and nazi's we are not. Don't worry we are arresting the relevant ones!
24. Strange Israel is so sure the teens won't be harmed
lydia ,   Brisbane   (06.17.14)
How come the IOFs are so sure the kidnappers won't kill their victims or torture them at least in retaliation for IOFs brutal crack down
25. Kidnapping because of gays
Heshy ,   Brooklyn ny usa   (06.17.14)
We must never forget that it was the 16 annual gay parade that caused the kidnapping of the 16 year old boys. You rebel against heaven you lose your Divine protection. As this shameful parade kicked off that Friday morning the public became aware of the three boys being kidnapped. No coincidence.
26. One mistake: Sarah B and others:
Robert Haymond ,   Teko'a, Israel   (06.17.14)
There is no such modern entity called "Palestinians". This is a false nomenclature. There are only Israeli Arabs, Gaza Arabs and Westbank Arabs.
27. #4 Hamas does not control "east palestine",
A ,   Belgium   (06.17.14)
Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein does. If you have issues, you should take them up with him. After all, unless you prefer living in gaza, he will eventually be your king, too.
28. Time for recycling
Harry Wright ,   UK   (06.17.14)
Re-arrest all those who were released in the Schalit exchange and incarcerate them. Recycle them if there is to be another deal. Arrest other ringleaders too. No freedom until the kidnapped boys are freed. Use this situation to the maximum to search, seize and destroy. Blast away some houses too. Deal with Gaza with full force.
29. Heshy 25
gays4Israel   (06.17.14)
you are a moron !
30. Deport the arrested to Gaza
Ron ,   oc us   (06.17.14)
If the courts will protect Jews. Bibi wants the arab rabble out.
