1. That's Kidnapping: Like Ben Gurion Did W/ Yemenite Children
(06.07.05)
Don't ethnically cleanse Jews and don't steal Jewish children.
2. Parents may lose Children
Oskarf Prager ,   Petach Tikva   (06.07.05)
If it is true what the prosecution has in mind,then clearly we are living in a Fascist State. The identical situation took place in Stalin's Soviet Union who in turn learned this from the Nazis in Germany. Is this why Israel wants to be called a light unto Nations ?
3. This article ignores many practical issues in removing kids
David Ya'akov ,   Gush Etzion   (06.08.05)
The government is using psychological tactics to intimidate us, and this is their latest scare tactic. It's only bluff. This article didn't mention how difficult it is for children to be removed from their parent's care by the courts. It's so difficult that no one should worry that just because their child is arrested in a demonstration that this can happen. Truth is that a vast majority of serious youth offenders in Israel are not even considered for such removal by social workers or the courts except under the most severe cases, so why should they consider it seriously for demonstrators? Besides, where will they get a massive number of foster parents to take such kids protesting the Expulsion? It would take months and months to process these kids for fostering and where they gonna put them and how much money would it take to keep them under the State's care until suitable families would be found to take them? Not to worry, it's all a big bluff!
4. Skip the nonsense
Alex ,   Boston   (06.08.05)
Just jail the parents for failure to raise their children. Here in America, there's this nonsense about trying children in court as adults who commit hanus murders etc etc... How can you try a 14 yr old and execute her when her mother was a junkie who's boyfriend used to abuse the child? Parents need to be held accountable to some extent in situations like this. If your 14 yr old child think that burning tires in the city streets is okay, then his parents have obviously failed at some level and should have to answer in some form. Taking custody doesn't seem like the right answer, but criminal charges of some fashion are appropriate. These children scare me more than any group of Arabs I've ever encountered or even read about for that matter.
5. anyone refusing the retreat plan...
edward ,   las vegas   (06.08.05)
should not be jailed. they should be left in their illegal home on stolen land without idf protection. lets see how tough they talk then. i dont think a burning tire is going to stop or stifle the injustices they have purportrated for the past 4 decades
6. IS THE QUARTET GIVING THESE ORDERS???
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.08.05)
The Quartet: the United States, European Union, United Nations and Russia, don't want Jewish citizens loyal to Israel and the Jewish people. The Quartet want Jewish citizens whose loyalty and devotion is to the Quartet. The Quartet want IDF who are loyal to the Quartet - IDF who will obediently ethnically cleanse Jews from Judea, Samaria, Gaza and any other places the Quartet want Jews ethnically cleansed from. As Israelis know very well, road blocking is used all the time in Israel to protest student fee hikes, workers' unions, taxi and truck drivers, etc. None of them ever went to jail! They plan to deal severely wih Jewish citizens for their disloyalty to the Quartet.
7. Unbeliveable
eli Vardi ,   Israel   (06.08.05)
After all the fuss about the Palestinians using their children to throw stones and be at the front, we now see the setlers using the same tactics. This cynical use of children, is sickening. They would rather the children be traumatized than to help them face upto and adjust to the new reality. There is a Jewish State, thanks to the early Zionists, religious AND non-religious, and with it come statehood and the rule of Law. These New Zionists want to hijack the State and are willing to destroy it, and traumatize their own children rather than accept majority rule. Maybe we should set up a third independent state for these fanatics so that they rule and protect them selves without destrying the fabric of a Democratic State.
8. eli Vardi: YOU SLANDER THE JEWISH PEOPLE!
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.08.05)
Your lies are wicked! You accuse Yesha's Jews of using the same tactics as PA society Muslims. Jewish children are NOT taught to hate and to murder and to strap on bomb belts to murder as many innocents as possible. They are not taught to throw rocks. A precious IDF soldier in recent days lost his eye from a rock throwing Jew-hater. Jews do not engage in such evil behavior! Jews fear the One great G-D and teach their children to obey G-D's laws given to Moses. Some of those laws: "You shall not murder" "You shall not commit adultery" "You shall not steal" "You shall not bear false witness" "You shall not covet" The Road Map Islamic terror state reduces TINY Israel to a 9 MILE WIDE BORDER at its middle. No longer a viable country! Compacting little Israel into the world's most over-crowded Jewish ghetto WITH UTTERLY INDEFENSILE BORDERS! Enabling a second holocaust. These Jewish children are heroes in their attempts to stop the planned second holocaust of the Jewish people.
