1. Some common sense advice for the IDF
Brad ,   USA   (08.29.15)
Stones are projectiles, whether they're thrown or launched from a sling. When you're attacked with stones or anything else, you shoot the attackers. That's the only thing those people understand. And don't sweat what the rest of the world thinks about it. The rest of the world is brain dead and they hate Israel already, so you've got nothing to lose. Shoot them, and God bless Israel.
2. Arabs sending their kids again to do their dirty work
Jake   (08.29.15)
"They do mention that these protests often involve Palestinian youths and children throwing stones at security forces." Strange how the parents always stay away while sending their kids out to throw rocks and firebombs at soldiers.
3. arabs spit on israeli weakness
hy   (08.29.15)
threatening protestors should be shot with riot gear after escorting the press out. Yaalons order to not fire may keep things calm for now but not in the long run. \and the europeans condemn israel for whatever it does. \\its time for israel to act like a country and not some dish rag which runs to obama every 1 minute. otherwise, give the keys to the arabs and move to the US and poland.
4. Then these pal hags and their spawn come to Israeli hospital
ab   (08.29.15)
for free treatment for their boils,acne,cancer,whatever-and Israel meekly accepts them.
5. Israel puts IDF IN HARMs WAY! IDF,use riot control microwave
Mighty Jew Young ,   America is beautiful   (08.29.15)
Where is the demonstrated MICROWAVE RIOT CONTROL that heats the skin without burning but makes the rioters VERY UNCOMFORTABLE- we have all seen these machines and where the hell are they instead of the IDF exposed to the violent SAVAGES who bite and kick and throw stones and gasoline bombs... Separate the IDF from the arab sphincters and don't allow the IDF to become victims of the rat mobs anymore. Cook the rabble!
6. The girl in the pink is none other than...
David ,   Haifa   (08.29.15)
...the little girl in the Youtube videos who 'provokes' the soldiers to be photoed in ways that make Israel to look like the aggressor...she is the darling of the cameramen...see: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ax-Jk2iJL0k or do a search: "Palestinian girl provokes soldiers"
7. Brave IDF attack 12 yo with a broken arm.
Purity of Ars   (08.29.15)
8. The lawless Palestians make me sick. May they go to hell.
rivkah   (08.29.15)
9. A bit of context would help
Jay   (08.29.15)
It should be noted that the blonde haired girl on the far left of the image is a regular in other Reuters photos: http://www.israellycool.com/2015/06/15/amnesty-international-shirley-biased-against-israel/ http://www.israellycool.com/2015/06/03/shirley-temper-tries-getting-herself-red-carded/ http://www.israellycool.com/2015/02/07/shirley-temper-on-the-good-ship-throw-a-rock/ http://www.israellycool.com/2014/11/24/pallywood-presents-shirley-temper-starring-in-mommy-dearest/
10. IDF soldiers should have come to his rescue and
barbara ,   Haifa   (08.29.15)
arrest the whole lot - women and children. If you attack a soldier, it is a crime that is meant to be punished.
11. I want to emphasize - rocks are weapons !
barbara ,   Haifa   (08.29.15)
12. Where are the other soldiers
Rivkah ,   Israel   (08.29.15)
Why is this soldier alone and being attacked by many Arabs?
13. Pallywood at its best!
Rivkah ,   Israel   (08.29.15)
Somethings never change
14. Context Hmmmmm1
Rivkah ,   Israel   (08.29.15)
You mean the real facts? OR at least the full picture of what really happened. That would not sell the news though.
15. It is a long article
Erica van Beek ,   AMSTERDAM,Netherland   (08.29.15)
But we in Holland think it is a fake film, Palliwood. The young girl is ofter seen in palliwoodfilms The Video posted shows a solo operating soldier. .There are no IDF soldiers in Gaza. IDF soldiers do not operate solo because of security. The blond girl appears in many Palliwood video's. So please, Ynetpeople, be more critical in explaining palliwood films. Please! .
16. Are people retarded?
Z   (08.29.15)
Are people retarded? I have seen that girl in resistance photos all over the west bank she gets around they use a blondish girl ln purpose to get western sympathy. I think I rmeber reading her father is palestinian and mother Swedish.. Which means what you see in the photos is planned they plan for whatever makes the best photos and then instigate to that goal.
17. FB Harold Neale
A ,   Belgium   (08.29.15)
Why don't you drag your phony American immigrant kont back to where you brought it from and "imposs" your "palestinian" state there. Judea and Samaria is already called for.
18. Israeli Response
steve Gure ,   coconut creek USA   (08.29.15)
It is troubling there appears very little back up for the lone soldier doing his duty.
19. Get out of Palestine!
Carol ,   NYC   (08.29.15)
Until Israel withdraws its population and soldiers from Palestinian lands, they will be portrayed as barbaric monsters to the entire world. West Bank and Gaza are NOT yours. Stop stealing from others and making the people miserable. Enough!
20. Violent photos from West Bank protest go viral
sylvia beck ,   jerusale,   (08.30.15)
shame on you to publish such garbage soldier is not one and it is all fake it is shameful to hurt the image of our kids fighting arabs daily with this kind of picture shame on you
21. bibi and yaalon's restrictive response stinks
james   (08.30.15)
idf needs smart rules of engagemeng. \eisencott has to weigh in. \\the idf soldier in question clearly could have stood up but was hanging onto the kid. first protect yourself. Then see if you if its worth making an arrest. d\ispersal may just be the better way. on the other hand, arabs watching are encouraged to attack as idf soldiers appear like weaklings. Yaalon,straigten out this mess or bloody well resign since you are turning out to be bibi #2, a do nothing weakling like herzog.
22. are you serious ?
Dor ,   holon   (08.30.15)
gaza is not part of israeli terretories . stop listenning to bloody propoganda of arabs .
23. # 1 I agree however first REPATRIATE THE ARAB pals
BUILD BABY BUILD!!   (08.30.15)
back to Arabia. Paliwood is now as real as the old MGM studio and, the publicity is free. Acting sux and no men at all..... KEEP BUILDING !!
24. you are very observant
Jochair Thyssen ,   kfar saba Israel   (08.30.15)
absolutely, it is the same girl, she makes a career of it.
25. # 19 Carol Oh, I don't know about that
BUILD BABY BUILD!!   (08.30.15)
There is NO palestine and there is NO west bank but, there IS Judea and Samaria that King David united with Israel over 3,000 years ago. Maybe you read about it? We have. Try and stay up with the class. Only Muslims steal and still lose wars and lives plus treasure. Maybe ISIS will make a house call on you in New York City?
26. And, obama's inviting them to the Rose Garden.
BUILD BABY BUILD!!   (08.30.15)
Like Sgt. Bergdahl's folks.
27.  # 5 Erica THANK YOU!!
(08.30.15)
28. #19, native Manhattan tribe demands you give back their isle
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (08.30.15)
29. EU media anti Jewish & pro Arab terror
bob k ,   orlando usa   (08.31.15)
The Daily Mail twice referred to the Israeli soldier t in these quotes as "the gunman". Portraying the Israeli soldier trying to arrest a young rock thrower as a 'gunman' makes him no different than the Palestinian terrorist gunmen who target Israelis for death. Meanwhile the EU continues its political and economic war on the settlements while excusing the PA which supports and encourages Palestinian terror and violence such as the rock throwing and firebombing terror attacks against Israelis. The EU cannot target its Jews but it can champion Arab terror against Jews. This political and media war will go on for generations.
30. Honest reporting please
howiej ,   njusa   (08.31.15)
There is a photo of the youth throwing a rock. He belongs to a family of terrorists. The girl biting the soldier looks like the girl seen in previous videos harassing and assaulting members of the IDF. Would love to read more reports by journalists instead of editorial writers
