1. Stupid girls
Joel ,   NY USA   (06.15.06)
Israelis are warned against hitchhiking in the West Bank as the Arabs have proclaimed their ntention of kidnapping them. Yet they still think that they are invulnerable.
2. JEWS TO JUDEA, ARABS TO ARABIA

4. Amazement
Ails ,   Rehovot Israel   (06.15.06)
It never ceases to amaze me that people of all ages and both sexes think it's ok to hitch a ride in Israel - how STUPID do you need to be??? It's always the 'it'll never happen to me!' attitude - some basic commen sense - and why the hell do the parents not STOP these kids from hiking a ride??? don't they care about their kids????? Is it SO much of an inconvenience to arrange a life for them or to give them fare for a bus????
5. #1, #4
yaakov ,   jUDEA   (06.15.06)

6. "palestinians"
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.06)
Why they don't call them "a gang of Arab terrorists" or at leat "left-wing palestinians"?

10. they are stupid but NOT the stupidest
Moshe ,   Beit Shemesh   (06.15.06)
that honor belongs to the morons who voted for Kadima and other left-wing parties. these girls were dumb enough to endanger themselves. the moron lefties endanger EVERYONE including themselves (what, idiot - you think the Arabs hate the "good Israelis" any less?)
11. hitchhiking a no no
leora   (06.15.06)

15. Ooooo..."Brave" Pali men beating up girls...Cowards!
Yonatan ,   USA   (06.15.06)
16. Don't blame the victims
Jenny   (06.15.06)
Hitchiking has been popular in Israel since its beginning. The fact is Palesitnians won't let the Israelis live in peace. It's not the fault of the girls who are young and naive. B/c of Israel's vicious neighbors Israeli youngsters are not allowed to act like young people and have to grow up before their time. Look at the poor kids in Sderot. The Israelis elected Kadima, it is obvious they had no intention to stop the terrorism.
17. Sam , London, UK

the Arab bomber
18. To #6 whoever you are
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.06)
You're a spineless little thing. Either use your own name, or shut up, but stop writing nonsense under my name. Grow up and be a man.
19. Why shouldnt they be able to hitch
(06.15.06)
Why should we be able to be safe in our own land. Stop putting imposes and defeatist coward acts, we all know who the enemy is what makes us scared out at night. Its the Arabs, enforce the rules on them and there will be more security and peace. NO MORE BEING A DEFEATIST AND COWARD
20. #18 You grow up and grow a spine
(06.15.06)
Until you can label your enemy and stop being a coward and do what is right, then you will always be in a fear for your lives. Show no mercy
21. what ellen means for peace
jason ,   usa   (06.15.06)
Three Palestinians try to force teens into car at gunpoint at West Bank bus station; girls resist abduction, one teen sustains light injuries in incident. Gunmen apprehended following pursuit carried out by IDF forces
22. Thank God the girls are safe!!!
Andy   (06.15.06)
23. #18
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.06)
I didn't write #6, but do you really think you're the only guy named Josh living in Jerusalem? Blame your parents for not being original. Blame yourself for taking Ynet talkbacks WAY too seriously.
24. More benifits of the Road Map peace process.
Marcel ,   Florida   (06.15.06)
Israel continues down the same slipperty path .Nothing awakens them to the dangerous pit they are about to fall into under the leading of the false peacemaker. This is just more of what is coming to Israel with her partner in peace. Israel's covenant with death (Raod Map) will bring much death and destruction and not peace.
25. I agree with you Ben Avraham #2
keren ,   sao paulo   (06.15.06)
It is most that about the time to already transfer these arabs to their right places. A good campaign and a good diplomacy towards foreign powers and arab countries is a good start in the way to implement this. Why not start this already??????
26. WHY BLAMING THE VICTIMS????
HaDaR ,   Q4H   (06.15.06)
WHY BLAMING THE VICTIMS???? # 1 SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSLEF! Hitch-hicking is THE MAIN means of transport for TENS OF THOUSANDS of Jews EVERY DAY, especially in areas where the government does not provide - ON PURPOSE! - public transportation! We travel like that EVERY DAY! If the army and the police were busy ELIMINATING terrorists raher than persecuting patriot Jews those trhings would not happen. Whoever accused the girls, like the local government radio did, accuses the victims. KILL THE WOLVES, don't blame the sheep. The radio did the same with a woman who is in hunger strike because of the government's INACTION in the face of EIGHTY missiles that fell on Sderot and asked if she is not considering moving somewhere else so that she'll be in peace. WHY NOT ASK ANY VICTIM OIF VIOLENT CRIME AND TERRORISM WHY THEY DON'T MOVE TO THE SEYCHELLES?
27. Stone The Animals!
Yehuda Benvenisti   (06.15.06)
28. To #18
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.06)
If you didn't write #6, then who did? Another Josh in Jerusalem probably. Weird.
29. send all palestinians to uganda!
Josh ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.06)
30. G-D GIVES the DEATH SENTENCE for KIDNAPPING
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (06.15.06)
Bible, Exodus 21:16 "He who kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or he is found in his possession, shall surely be put to death." The most merciful G-D protects innocents. G-D does not want any more victims!
