1. Life sentence is a joke
Jhan   (06.19.14)
They love it, 3 square meals, cable tv etc. It should be 1) Life sentence of hard labour and if they won't work then go on to 2) death sentence by burning the terrorists AND their clan members to a crisp. Israelis are such pussies it's sickening.
2. #1: For the things you propose we have the followers of
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.19.14)
Religion of Peace all over the world, showing us what life in the 7th Century Arabia will be like (for Europe of 21st Century). they are so skilled at this, why don't we leave it in their domain. Just look how they "dispose" of their fellow Arabs in Iraq....
3. #1: It's called being humane
Bart ,   NL   (06.19.14)
Do you really want to lower yourself to the level of terrorists? A society that treats it's prisoners like arab countries do isn't one worth fighting for.
4. Only one punishment
(06.19.14)
Their societies are failed and destructive. They have a huge percentage of youth that have no future thanks to their society. They do not mind jail. They do not mind death. There is only one thing they mind: Jewish homes. Look at how Abbas smiles as the IDF does the dirty work of arresting and damaging his political opponents. Now imagine Abbas' face if Israel imposed the only punishment that will hurt the Arabs: building Jewish homes. Netanyahu: history will remember you very poorly.
5. Don't say that Arabs aren't smarter than Zionists
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.19.14)
While the Zionists are firing at empty buildings after warning the terrorists in advance by dropping leaflets to leave the area, the Arabs are firing at civilians without warning. The joke is on Israel who foolishly think they can get rid of the enemies this way.
6. keep squeezing the vice
arieh   (06.19.14)
squeeze the pals until they give up the location of the 3 boys. As for other israeli hitchhikers, don't. In any case, crry firearms and shoot anyonone who attempts abduction.
7. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.19.14)
Excuse me, but why would you think it would be a good thing to allow terrorists to live in our midst? To keep them in a revolving door prison, so that they can be released to ply their despicable trade again? I am not generally a fan of capital punishment, but I think that terrorism should be a capital crime in Israel. An executed terrorist will never murder again. And ten feet of hemp is a lot less expensive than keeping a terrorist in an Israeli prison for twenty years. There are better ways to spend that money.
8. Fourth Geneva Convention
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.19.14)
The Fourth Geneva Convention applies exclusively to sovereign territories under occupation. Judea and Samaria are NON-SOVEREIGN, hence the Fourth Geneva Convention does not apply. Please keep in mind that the Hague Convention is very clear on the status of nonsovereign territories acquired in the course of fighting a defensive war: the victor may settle, retain and even annex the nonsovereign territories thus acquired. There never was a nation-state called "Palestine," and the only chances the Arabs had to create one were rejected -- in 1947 they opted for war over partition; in 1987 they walked away from an agreement which would have awarded them 90 percent of the West Bank and East Jerusalem as a capital, choosing instead to start the First Intifada; and in 2000, they walked away from the identical offer, opting instead to launch the second intifada. Well, those offers are no longer on the table, and Judea and Samaria have been settled, have been retained and will be annexed. The Arabs in Judea and Samaria are not stateless -- they are Jordanian citizens -- and while Israel has every right to repatriate them to Jordan, there is now a preferable option: deportation to Gaza, where they can join their brother "palestinians" to breathe life into the new "unity agreement." A word of caution: if you don't know jack about the Hague and the Geneva Conventions, it's probably better that you not address the topic. That would apply to Shuman and O'Diomasaigh in the instant case. Consider yourselves schooled.
9. it may be that the kidnapper need an unthreatening way
riva ,   israel   (06.19.14)
to return the youths. because almost anything they do will expose them.

When you encounter a mad dog, you don't show it kindness but rather , you put it down.
