31. Molotov cocktails? Arrest them for attempted murder!
Karen R ,   Maryland   (05.07.06)
Throwing a Molotov cocktail (gasoline bomb) at anyone is quite simply an attempt at murder. If these idiots were just throwing them to make an impression, that demonstrates their stupidity as well, since "accidents happen." No soldiers were killed or seriously injuried, but that's not the settlers' fault. Why are these people not being arrested, tried and jailed? Does the Israeli government have to wait until an IDF soldier or policeman is killed by some juvenile delinquent being incited by his/her elders before the law is enforced? They were breaking the law already simply by being in a closed military zone. Let's see PM Olmert get tough before it's too late and a soldier (or girl soldier) is killed.

Wrong Keren. Here I was born and here I will die. I will be buried next to my grand-parents and parents on our Kibbutz , all of them Sabra's and all of them were soldiers . I will never leave this country that I love . On that you are correct, the settlers are not my people . Most of them are Russian or American . How will I pay Keren ? Will the settlers God strike me down for speaking the truth ?????? How about sk's contempt for the State of Israel ?? That's okay I suppose ??? Well Keren , at least I have never thrown stones at little children, attacked a police officer or one of our soldiers or torched their cars . I have never called a fellow Jew a Nazi or used holocaust symbols for political gain or broken any of our Laws because I think I am above man's Laws and follow only God's word written 2000 years ago. And not to forget what started my contempt for these people , I have never assassinated a 73 year old Prime Minister of Israel by shooting him oh so bravely in the back !!!!!!

Well done Colin, could not have put it better myself. Ali. You are more than pathetic. You are narrow minded and stupid not to mention hateful and clueless.
34. HEBRON - The FIRST JEWISH CITY & SECOND IN JEWISH HOLINESS
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (05.07.06)
Respect is always given to Muslims! No one ever tries to steal Islamic land and Islamic sacred places! No one is trying to force Muslims out of Mecca and Medina! This CRUEL and FRIGHTENING IDEOLOGY that PUNISHES JEWS for NOT BEING MUSLIM MUST STOP! From: The Jerusalem Post, Nov 16, 2005 'The case for Mitzpe Shalhevet' by David Wilder "...The market was finally shut down following an attempted terrorist attack: Arabs placed a booby-trapped teddy bear in a plastic bag in the market near the entrance to the Jewish neighborhood, hoping a Jewish child, finding it, would play with it and be killed in the ensuing explosion. Despite numerous requests by our community to rent the structures, the site has been left vacant. On March 26, 2001, at the beginning of the Oslo War an Arab sniper shot and killed 10-month-old Shalhevet Pass. Following the murder, Hebron children began utilizing the abandoned Arab shuk as a place to play and take cover during shooting attacks from the overlooking Abu Sneneh Hills. Over a period of time, the Hebron community invested tens of thousands of dollars to convert the former fruit and vegetable stalls into livable apartments. Presently, the former market, renamed the Mitzpe Shalhevet neighborhood, houses Hebron families and a Torah study hall opened in Shalhevet's memory. Mitzpe Shalhevet is presently on the brink of obliteration, not by Arabs, but by the government..."

keren ,   sao paulo   (05.07.06)
You follow G´od ´s words,but Russians and American Jews are not your people...hummm. You call your self "secular" ;seculars despise religion... I am happy you are only a sad exception in Israel,and you will desapear soon,because you don´t make sense;Am Israel does.
36. Heed the words of Burke and Churchill
Kopel ,   Philadelphia   (05.07.06)
Movement must be established to overthrow the radical, extremist, ultra left wing (communist) government in Israel. Edmund Burke once said, "All that is necesary for evil to triumph is for enough good men to do nothing" and Churchill said that, "Apeasement only guarantees that the alligator will eat you last". Heed these words before it's too late!!!
37. Leftist set-up
Ben Avraham ,   Tel Aviv   (05.07.06)
The house was legally bought by Jews from an Arab and the police, the Ehud Shmartut govt. and Barak court of non-Zionists ignored the legality of the transaction to stick it to the 'monster' settlers. No wonder the Pals are just sitting by and waiting for us to self-destruct.
38. "SETTLERS"
joe   (05.07.06)
One of the soldiers' main tasks was to protect Hebron's settlers. However, "After half a year we realized we must protect the Palestinians from the Jews there," a soldier said. One settler was seen carrying an M-16 with a sticker on the magazine: "Kill 'em all. Let God sort 'em out." Someone scribbled on a wall, in English, "Arabs to the gas chambers." from: http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/20040614-094754-8513r.htm Just google: hebron+settlers+soldiers and one can see - ITS A PUBLIC RELATON DESASTER FOR ISRAEL! Good so.
39. Do Seculars, Anti Settlers only care about Darfur?!!
(05.07.06)
I see hundreds of thousands of Jews who protested for Darfur last weekend in Washington and many other protests, do you not care anything about your fellow Jew/Israeli that are being evicted from their homes? Or do you only care about Darfur. In reality, Jewish problems come first, in the end nobody will care about our problems except Jews and maybe some Righteous Gentiles.

Hilda ,   USA   (05.07.06)
Sure great push people out of their legally acquired homes. I guess you believe as the Muslims do--that anything tha the Arabs stole belongs to them forever. This was Jewish land for hundreds if not for thousands of years. Note the Mezuzzah holes on the doorposts. You don;t suppose the Arabs are now putting mezzuzot on their door posts. Besides, they bought the house back legitimately . This is just an effort of the Olmrt government to push Jews from Judea and Sameria and make a little ghetto arounfd Tel Aviv for Jews. Why do you suppose they are already deciding how to give away Jerusalem. Jews will no longer be able to pray at any of their shrines--like Joseph's tomb which was squandered away, so will the temb of the Patriarchs followed by the Wall. But what do you care, you are secular and don;t even consider yourself as Jewish except perhaps by accident of birth. Maybe or maybe not you enjoy eating your potato latkes on Chanukah. Wait until that too is banned by Sharia law.
41. #38 Those couldnt be the same lies and biased like this
(05.07.06)
when Bush or anyone calls Islam a "Religion of Peace" or when they call terrorists, freedom fighters or whatever PC title. Or they call Moe a real peaceful man or when they say Islam doesnt oppress woman. I could go on for years.
42. Hamas's Best Ally
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (05.07.06)
The present goverment seems to be the best ally of Hamas. Does nothing as far as the rockets are concerned. Want's to go back to the 67 borders to be within 9 miles of the ocean. Fights the settlers, flirts with Civil War. Supports Humanitarian aid to the Palis. Supports the Oslo 67 borders even though it did not work. Want's to talk with Abbas but not with the settlers. Cares only what Europe and America Israeli Leftist think?

I would like to believe that you are correct.
44. The dimwitted and subliterate Secular Sabra
sk ,   USA   (05.07.06)
SS, don't you have any Persian homework to do? Obviously English is hopelessly beyond you (;-)*&$#)). And you bet I admire the courage of Jews in Hevron. Would I have this courage? If I were as firmly religious as they, yes. But I am not. We will see your own courage when the US bombs your home in Teheran.
45. Reply # 35 Keren
Secular Sabra ,   Israel   (05.07.06)
No Keren wrong again , it is you who are confused. Secular's do not despise religion , they are just not religious . It is the settlers who " follow only God's word written 2000 years ago " and not our Laws. That's okay as long as they do not break our Laws and live within them but they do not. They think they are above our Laws. They are NOT. "" I am happy you are only a sad exception in Israel,and you will desapear soon,because you don´t make sense;Am Israel does "" Sorry to inform you that we are the majority over here , the settlers are less than 10% of the population. If " Am Israel " does then please explain to me why you live in Brazil ???????????

joe   (05.07.06)
"We will see your own courage when the US bombs your home in Teheran". The US-warcriminals like to bomb homes, don't they?? Like in Vietnam and Iraq.... Its not about the nuclear program, it is about destroying a whole people just to steal their resources.... Your mentally retarded "supreme Führer" is a candidate for De Hague!

Secular Sabra's home is directly above one of Iran's nuclear development sites.
48. Corrupted Government
Caroline ,   USA   (05.07.06)
Once again, the Israeli corrupted 'gang' is rewarding the Arabs (terrorists) by giving them land. Giving land for Peace?Don't they know that there is still NO peace in Gaza? Haven't they learned their lesson by what Sharon did to the people of Gush Katif, Amona, and now Hebron?They should be ashame for what they are doing to the people and to the Land of Israel!!Mr. Olmert, what side are you on, the State of Israel or the terrorists? Even the 'righties' are corrupted...Israeli government is run by crooks who just want money rather then trying to protect the Jewish people from harm.They are liars, just like the Bush administration. If the government is not on your side, they are the enemy!! It will be time to take it into your own hands and take back the land that was given to you! Stop being afraid, Hashem is on your side not the enemies!! (Standing with Israel)!! May G-d help you all!!
49. Nr. 47
joe   (05.07.06)
Oh... sorry, I couldn't know that! Quoting the Dimwit from Washington: Hm..... is it a socalled "safehouse" for "terrrrrorists" (with "rape-rooms" of course!) and lots of Anthrax and Yellow cake from Niger???? This fairy-tales-Jeff-Gannon-Hugger doesn't embarass You?
50. Hitler would be proud of the IDF and Olmert today.
Daisy ,   USA   (05.08.06)
Unbelievable! Israel is treating the Jews the way the Nazis did by taking their land, assaulting them. Israel is going to destroy itself.
51. Ali; Your land is in Arabia!

Go back there Arab occupier!
52. Sad but not hopeless god willing
Jack Brami ,   Montreal, Qc   (05.08.06)
Hebron is site where our patriarchs are burried. This site has significant historical importance to the jewish culture and must be preserved at all cost. The house may not be politically significant but the movement (of the house) is important. The world must not forget the significance of this holly site but in return, the settlers must cooperate with our leaders so that the strict essential (land) be kept at least for the price of peace. We've lost the Sinai, the gaza stript, and most of the west bank so far to buy peace at the cost of shrinking our minuscule country and endagering a security damper. Let's hope that god does not forget us again like he did during the shoa. behatslaha israel, niflaa
53. iron fist policy
irwin ,   nyc   (05.08.06)
can't wait until Friday to see the "IRON FIST" being used on leftists and arabs at Bel'im. Or maybe the police are immune to rocks and only need medical treatment for paint.
