1. It's DISGUSTING how YNet and most media automatically assume
Joshua ,   Jerusalem   (07.02.14)
it's always the JEWS fault. But even angry Jews don't kill for fun. I am sure they will discover that this kid was an Arab clan feud or honor killing... maybe he was homosexual or caught with someone's daughter. This has Arab "justice" written all over it.
2. who cares?
jew ,   europe   (07.02.14)
how many death israelies we have ... who cares about arab today look in irak iran 2,400 death and nobody even they dont care why we care about them?? till we wont care more about our people we will be victims all the responsability for this go to goverment who brought israel to the deepest level of fear and suffering burry 3 Inocent boys because goverment is sacrificing jewish people for the fake peace goverment has to bear responsability

4. The police reported his family is involved with
cmon   (07.02.14)
some conflicts with other arab families in the area. They kill each other on a regular basis and now they're trying to turn it into a Jewish terror...
5. Hey, Attwa in FB, it's more likely one of yours
(07.02.14)
A BLOOD LIBEL. Probably an Arab honor killing blaming Jews as Christians used to do when they wanted to blame Jews. Had it been Jews, they wouldn't have killed only one as revenge, but at least 3 or more.
6. Dangerous psychosis
Zechariah   (07.02.14)
it is only justified to find the murderes of the youth nd shoot them dead . ALL THIS psychotic activity against easy targets is cowardly and wastes time .THERE ARE MANY GUILTY NOT TOUCHED .they need to be found and dealt with . HOW COME SO MANY NAZI WAR CRIMINALS WHO GASSED JEWS ESCAPED .
7. Biased report, completely different than the hebrew version
Rotem ,   Israel   (07.02.14)
Dvir, Levy & Zitun are usually rushing to make conclusions and put the blame on Israel or Israelis. This is SICK! Who pay you guys?
8. possible revenge attack
mat ,   uk   (07.02.14)
to all we know it was most likely done by Arabs its it in their culture just look around how many Muslims kill Muslims they want to make it look bad for Israel
9. Killing the teen...Settlers are the cause for all..
ALI ,   Villanova -PA   (07.02.14)
These settlers do not represent Jews or decent Israelis..They are renegades and outlaws running around like Raid Dogs.. Hamas is juts as brutal..and who started this Hamas..Stupid Arafat was the cause of it.. and they are Cowards..Eventually ...and I hope not..It will be a Blood Bath..on both sides..and the Israeli society..will will eventually...NOT identify with them.. and we will have peace..
10. How irresponsible of Ynet..
The Kibitzer ,   Adelaide, Australia   (07.02.14)
.to speculate about the nationality and motivation of the culprit(s). Until there are arrests and convictions no-one should spread such dangerous and malicious gossip. There is already too much hatred. Please don't add to it.
11. This teen was beaten last week for wearing womens clothes
Check your facts   (07.02.14)
He was probably murdered for being gay, we need to wait for further info
12. If my math is correct
paulD ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.02.14)
and if Jews did this, than expect two more revenge killings. Advice: Arab Jihad Mothers, keep your kids at home, not the time to let them out to throw rocks, or you and your wonderful Jew-hating families are always welcomed to leave Jewish land. There are many who would pay you to take your cruelty to Sweden or France where they love to do kindness to their sister's rapist.
13. ynet or the hamas propaganda magazine?
Daniel ,   Ta - IL   (07.02.14)
how much money does the mozes family get from the eu to make ynet a blood libel propagand machine?
14. First of all: Blow up the houses of the suspects.
Albrecht ,   Eu   (07.02.14)
15. #2 "Why care about them?"
Albrecht ,   EU   (07.02.14)
"why we care about them?? till we wont care more about our people we will be victims." Does this statement also concern the Europeans during the WW2? Everyone in Europe had to care about the Jews in Europe during the WW2. Why?
16. Police say it was criminal... done by Arabs!!!!!!!!!!!!
No surprise   (07.02.14)
A senior retired police official argues that the abduction and murder of the Arab youth who was found dead Wednesday morning was a criminal act, rejecting the claim that Jewish "revenge" for the murdered Israeli teens lay behind it. The official noted that the family of the murdered 16-year-old was well known to police sources in Jerusalem, adding "it's a problematic family with internal clashes that have been ongoing for many years." "I have no doubt that as time passes it will be clarified that the murder was criminal and nothing more," declared the official, who spoke to Arutz Sheva on condition of anonymity. Several Israeli officials jumped to condemn the murder, including Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, who called it “a grave and barbaric act," adding "this is not our way of doing things." The senior official criticized Barkat sharply for jumping to conclusions and condemning the murder "as if the youth was killed by a Jew in response to the murder of the three Jews in Gush Etzion." When Knesset ministers ascribe the murder as being a "price tag" act, there is serious damage to the image of Israel in the eyes of the world, argued the official. "As a veteran resident of Jerusalem, I'm surprised that the mayor rushed to put out condemnations without clarifying all of the facts. I know the internal conflicts in that family, and we need to wait and not rush to connect the murder of the Arab youth with the abduction in Gush Etzion," added the official. During the ensuing riots in Beit Hanina and Shuafat since the announcement of the murder, several Arab residents reportedly attacked a young local Arab, possibly indicating the internal clashes the source spoke of. Police forces rescued the youth, who did not require medical treatment. The rioters were dispersed by the police force and the assaulted youth left the area.
17. Arabs always murdering each other and blaming Jews
Jhan   (07.02.14)
Only a ynet journoshmourno would drink this Arab koolaid.
18. Oggs - facebook
Robert ,   Australia   (07.02.14)
"I would be ashamed if Jews did that : Jews are not wanton murderers of innocent people". You can be confident that Jews did this. Not all Jews are savages but some of them are.
19. This is a result of Netanyahu's incitement
Raad ,   Jerusalem   (07.02.14)
Are Israelis happy now ? You got your revenge, you can go celebrate now !! Disgusting.. Condolences to the family of the murdered teen, this is very sad.
20. Jews dis price tags in Nablus? HAHAHAHAHAhaaaa
Rediculous!!!   (07.02.14)
NO JEW can even enter Nablus without losing his life.... NOOOOO WAY is was done by a Jew. Typical leftist and Arabs propaganda as usual.
21. #12 Jews already equalized the score in May
(07.02.14)
when two Palestinian teens on their way from school were shot dead. It was captured on a security camera.
22. Primitive and barbarian
Tomek ,   Poland   (07.02.14)
Will the homes of the people who killed this Arab boy be destroyed? Or this kind of nonsense applies only to Arab families?
23. Whoever did this hates Israel....
Truth Hertz ,   UK   (07.02.14)
If it was "revenge" then those who did it cared so little for Israel that they did not bother to consider that it would make us look no better that the moslem terrorists who murdered the 3 boys. Or, it was Hamas who realised that they had a PR disaster on their hands and that the media would rush to blame Israel for the death of this teenager. Either way, my condolences go to the boys family.
24. democratic country my foot
anton ,   istanbul   (07.02.14)
maybe only for jews, apartheid is really the correct term as for the incident, shows you how much problems settlers cause to israel and palestenians,unfortunately right wing nuts in israeli soceity is the roots of this problem
25. #1 history repeats itself
(07.02.14)
Chalchul 1992. An Arab was found murdered. Rabin and Yossi Sarid went to the press to blame the Jews. A few weeks later the truth came out. The Arab was murdered by Arab criminals. GSS agent Avishai Raviv (best friend of Yigal Amir) took responsibility for the murder, under Rabin's orders, to delegitimize the Jews.
26. #21 -oh, now the teens were just on the way home form school
William ,   Israel   (07.02.14)
and not taking part in the violent riots that the original story claimed, while noting it was a lull in violence at the time of the shooting. You're only fault? Not having the teens carry a cake or teddy bear for a terminally-ill relative while just innocently passing through a scene of major violence....with LOTS of other school kids who were involved in the violent events.
27. I can't believe that people here are trying to justify the
Jonathan ,   MN/US   (07.02.14)
Murder of a kid!
28. Racist apartheid Israel
Gail ,   USA Navarre   (07.02.14)
Now the world will wait to see demolished homes imprisoned Israeli children arrested official s now we wait with baited breath to see punishment meted out to the citizens of Israel that are Jewish recieve the same punishment meted out to Palestinians or do we die waiting for equal punishment
29. #22 - if it turns out to be an Arab who did this...
William ,   Israel   (07.02.14)
can we take up your suggestion and destroy his house, or is that just reserved for Jews?
30. what did you expect?
Allan ,   USA   (07.02.14)
For the past few days the Israeli government including prime minister Netanyaho and other politicians have been calling for revenge. Now when they are is "revenge" they pretend to call for calm. That reminds me of the right wing (along with Netanyaho at the time) incitement against Yetzhak Rabin during the 90s. He also condemned that at the time... innocents will pay for this short vision.
