1. MK crap
Benny ,   USA   (06.04.07)
If I smuggled in 1 ecstacy pill into Israel, I'd be in jail for longer, and certainly not at Sharon prison, and would not have my sentence knocked down 19 months. This is a legitimate reason why the government of Israel should be ashamed of themselves.
2. "JAIL HOUSE(KNESSET)ROCK
papi   (06.04.07)
ok, so now wich post we are going to give him, in the new goverment ?
3. Godd behaviour
ben ,   singapore   (06.04.07)
OK !
4. 32,000 Ecstacy Pills.
colin ,   sheffield.uk.   (06.04.07)
What happened to them?I think they must have been distributed to the AUTHORITIES who have been high on them for years.That must explain a lot of things.I suppose they must be on downers now,which explains even more things.
5. GONEN YOU'RE AN IDIOT , EMMIGRATE & DON'T COME BACK !
MOSHE ,   US   (06.04.07)
6. What a disgrace!
Talula ,   Israel   (06.04.07)
32,000 Ecstasy pills destined to be used by children and this filthy dirty lowlife gets released? Why not release Rosenstein as well? At least he is what he is and didn't use status to do so. I'm repulsed by the decisions made in the courts, and they call it justice? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaa!
7. They Should Appoint Him As Judge.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (06.04.07)
That way, the next time he gets caught, he can let himself out. Our MK's are really an inspiration to all of us by their high moral character, intellectual prowess, & spirit of self-sacrifice.
8. Israel going down the drain
Yianis Kareklas ,   Athens , Greece   (06.04.07)
Of course with MKs like him and a pitiful government arabs don't need to fight Israel , it is going to them naturally. Just a matter of time. Have the israelis heard about Sodoma and Gomhora by the way? History repeating itself.
9. Why condemn Segev?
yosef ,   tel aviv   (06.04.07)
YNet has forgotten to give some important background information about Segev's contributions to Israel. Before he was a drug dealer, Segev was an knesset member who Rabin bought (by making him a minister) in order to pass the Oslo agreements. I'd think Oslo supporters would be happy that a person of Segev's moral fiber was in the Knesset. Without him we might not have had the peace we are all enjoying.
10. That is 19 month off plus only half time.
Ilan ,   Ariel   (06.04.07)
And that is our justice system. Taking a bribe to pass the Oslo agreement is considered a "mediating factor" resulting in an easy sentence. I guess he can now move to Haifa and associate with the other prominent dealers.
11. This is a disgrace- Ecstasy is Murder!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (06.04.07)
People who smuggle or sell drugs are basically committing murder and total family destruction. 32,000 counts of attempted murder and he is out after 19 months! This man is or was a doctor. How dare he use the "I didn't know they were not M&M's" excuse? The Criminal Justice system was and is a total and utter disgrace! What kind of a Chief Justice is Dorit Beinash to allow this sort of thing to happen? How can a judicial system that sentences drug smugglers, who are potential murderers to 5 years and lets them out after a 19 month stay at a five star prison? In the USA this would have been 15 years and maybe parole after 8! When is someone in the "regime" going to yell “enough” and impeach our Judiciary?
12. ynet dishonesty in reporting; YNET = PRAVDA
Moshe ,   Beit Shemesh   (06.04.07)
NOTHING about the fact that he is the MK whose bought vote gave us Oslo. leaving it out is DISHONEST. imagine - if this guy would have been a haredi or settler, not only would it have been in the article - IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE HEADLINE.
13. Moshe, it matters not anymore
שילוה   (06.04.07)
Moshe, it does not matter anymore. I know settlers and Haredi who are as corrupt as the day is long. I know secular who are genuine tzadikim. Of course before you get too excited, I know religious who are tzadikim too. Moshe, it's the soul of the person that we have to look at. Tricks for the most part do not change the soul, sometimes BH they do. What is sad here is the amount of corruption, anti-Israel and anti-Jewish feelings here in Israel. G-d gave us this land and we are pissing it away. We have no one currently in the pipeline to replace them who will care for it's people. We are about to hit rock bottom, and maybe that is what we need finally, then maybe, just maybe haShem will have mercy on us and repair this mess finally after 3500 years.
