1. Aha.....
Neutral ,   Jerusalem   (05.02.06)
Those kinds of people must be stopped, they represent a face of terrorism in the country, they are against freedom and costs the state of Israel a lot..... Stop this kind of terror!
2. They do this in Arad also
Scott ,   Haifa   (05.02.06)
They try to intimidate believers in Yeshua who live in Arad, who are for this country, their children serve in the army. They encircle a house of a widow to try to intimidate her. Their community center has also been burned down in Arad.
3. Organized Crime Remedy
Joel Silber ,   NY   (05.02.06)
Arrest the suspects, prosecute them, and if found guilty put them in jail. Repeat this process over and over again until the criminal element gets it. No more coddling of criminals!
4. Scott
oren ,   rbs, israel   (05.02.06)
Whoever believes in yashka is going to burn in Hell! What do you think about that?
5. Cut them off the wellfare system
Nadav ,   Misgav   (05.02.06)
And you will see how nice they can get. Enough is enough, they do not work, now army...and do not respect anybody who is not like them. No more of our taxes for those guys!
6. A metal gate with a buzzer might be smart.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica, CA   (05.02.06)
7. #4
Nigel ,   Israel   (05.02.06)
Regardless of one's belief it doesn't give others the right to harrass and destroy property. As for those that believe in Yeshua going to burn in hell, that is your opinion and you are entitled to it but the Prophets of old foretold the coming of Yeshua, His death and resurrection - if you don't believe me, read them for yourself.
8. haredim
zznhl   (05.02.06)
They except our money but not our rules. At least be honest and decide which. If you consider Israel not valid, until the Mashiach comes, behave like you do in a foriegn country and respect the norms of that country. Hutzpah!
9. you are all a bunch of biggots!!!!
Gedaliah   (05.02.06)
15 people certainly do not constitute calling out on all Haradim. There are more soldiers on trial for raping a 14 year old girl. Did the headlines say "Soldiers are Rapists"? No, because inteligent people don't generalize. There is a problem with the people who comited these crimes and should be in jail. But to say "They also do this in Arad".... IGNORANCE IS A SHORTCUT TO THINKING!!!!
10. #7: wrong
Michael Steiner   (05.02.06)
haneviim told of the coming of the mashiakh, not anything about any so-called "jesus." BTW, this is no place to disseminate your Xian propaganda.
11. Scott et al.
Jeff ,   Herzliya   (05.02.06)
Scott's completely right. Oren's completely wrong, and his heart is filled with venom and hatred. Oren, what do you think about that? Ynet editors, why do you allow offensive, bigoted, totally off-subject comments like Oren's to be posted? Scott's makes sense, even if you don't like the message -- these mafia haredi do the same thing elsewhere, generally with impunity. Oren is just a hate monger.
12. bad neighbors
moish ,   israel   (05.02.06)
I suppose all the people attacking hareidim would gladly have houses of ill repute, massage parlors and crack houses for neighbors , so that in the spirit of freedom these establishments could entice their children and husbands?
14. # 12
yakov shani ,   afula   (05.02.06)
The people you mentioned in your post are in my opinion low lifes and unfit to be members of society and I most certainly do not want them as neighbors. To recount the list in your post. Houses of ill repute, massage parlors, crack houses and Haredim. None of these would be welcome as my neighbors and if any moved in I would move out.
15. Internet Cafes cause blindness / hair growth on palm of hand
alan ,   sa   (05.02.06)
16. Haredis Destroying Internet Cafe
Gerald Zang ,   Kfar Saba, Israel   (05.02.06)
This is yet another example of what those gangsters will do in the name of religion. It is worse than Hamas is some ways. Destroying the property of somewone else is a crime and against the tenets of Judaism. They are pushing Jews away form them and alienating themselves from the Jewish community. They are an unfuly bunch of hoodlums.
17. bad, BAD computer
michal ,   afula; israel   (05.02.06)
dear haredim, so it was a computer committing all these 'sins', not your very own people. when will you guys learn to take responsibility for these things and incidentally teach your young how to behave in public?
18. Is This Any Different From Taliban?
emanon ,   USA   (05.02.06)
19. Heredi Break into Internet Cafe
Steve G ,   New York, USA   (05.02.06)
Hmm, "rabbis of the community met and decided to escalate the fight and destroy onter internet cafes." -- I'm not an expert on Israeli criminal law, but that sure sounds like conspiracy to commit burglary -- a felony in the U.S. Why no arrests?
20. They remind me of Islamic Fundies
Chaya ,   Bat Yam   (05.02.06)
When Muslims don't like something, they go on a rampage, destroying everything in sight. They also remind me of the (I think they were called) Luddites, those that protested any new modern devices. Those arrested should be made to pay for the damages and should spend a long time in prison.
21. Mind-control
Kerry L. Winn ,   Las Vegas USA   (05.02.06)
What do thay want to do, brainwash their people, similar to how Arabs brainwash their people?
22. THOSE ULTRA ORTHODOX IDIOTS NEED TO CALM DOWN
Alex G. ,   Brooklyn, NY   (05.02.06)
IF THEY HAVE SO MUCH ANGER AND ENERGY IN THEM, LET THEM GO AND FIGHT IN IDF. BUT NO, WHEN IT GETS TO THE MILITARY SERVICE, EVERYONE IS SO NICE AND QUIET. CUT ALL OF THE GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE AND GIVE IT TO THE WORKING FAMILIES OF ISRAEL!!!
23. Bad Neighbors (Moishe)
Gerald Zang ,   Kfar Saba, Israel   (05.02.06)
Having massage parlors, etc., are not destructive to the property of others, and is not in any way hoolagism. I'd rather have the parlors.
24. Kerry's brainwashing
Rustum ,   London   (05.02.06)
"similar to how Arabs brainwash their people" - so you can bounce off a news item about the Haredim to add the cheapest of slurs and the most grotesque of generalisations about a few hundred million people. I don't suppose that you Americans in Las Vegas are brainwashed by the American system, are you? It's obviously only sub-human third-worldies who can be brainwashed and from your pillar of moral rectitude you can obviously see this very clearly. Scurrilous comment on your part.
25. Unacceptable
Daniel ,   Australia   (05.02.06)
They should follow the democratic laws of the land, regardless of whether they are ultra-orthodox or not.
26. TEMPTATION
ALAN ,   USA   (05.02.06)
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING PRAYER ABOUT BEING LED INTO TEMPTATION? WHAT ABOUT "ONE WHO IS STRONG IS MASTER OVER THEIR IMPULSES? i GUESS THESE HAREDI ARE NOT VERY STRONG. MY BIGGEST FEAR: CIVIL WAR-PEACE WITH THE ARABS, RELIGIOUS ATTACK SECULAR SPOTS; HAREDI=TERRORISM
27. haredi thugs
liami ,   los angeles usa   (05.02.06)
please when we make peace with the palestinians can we please give them bnei brak and meah shearim.and get rid of these worthless barbarian thugs they make me ashamed to be jewish-
28. Puhleeeeese
Aleka ,   Colorado, US   (05.02.06)
Burn computers vs Suicide bomb civilians... Burn computers vs Suicide bomb civilians.... Burn computers vs Suicide bomb civilians.... I'll take the burnt computers anyday over torn body parts
29. BAD COMPUTER...
ELOKIM ,   ISRAEL   (05.02.06)
I'M SURE THIS IS WHAT THE RABBI TELLS THE SERVANTS...ALSO KNOWN AS HAREDI. WHY NOT DETROY THE HAREDI PEOPLE THAT USE THESE BAD COMPUTERS? THE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE DAMAGES OF THE CAFE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND MADE TO PAY FOR THEIR ACTIONS. OR BETTER YET.....THE RABBIS!!! WHO INCITED THIS RIOT!!!!!! THE PEOPLE WHO ARE THIS OVER THE TOP INTO THIER RELIGION ARE NO BETTER THEN TERRORIST. ALAN #26 SAYS "RELIGIOUS ATTACK SECULAR SPOTS; HAREDI=TERRORISM" WELL SOME OF THESE THINGS HAVE ALREADY STARTED TO HAPPEN. NEXT UP.....HAREDI BOMBINGS...!!!!???? STATE FUNDED OR MAYBE RABBI FUNDED OF COURSE!!! WOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE HAMAS....OR FATAH ...OR BIN LADIN...OR ISLAMIC JIHAD!!!!!
30. Bias
Marcus Garvy ,   Kingston   (05.02.06)
if this happened in gaza or the west bank or jerusalem or any othe part of a arab/muslim STATE it would be in every newspaper in the country. i have not seen this in one american paper. this probably wont get posted.
