The Arabs not want the Peace, the Arabs want eliminate Israel. Yigal want the Peace, he love Israel
32. Jew killing Jew
Rami   (09.01.07)
A Jew killing another Jew is much worse, than a Palestinian killing a Jew, which can be seen as a resistance act, how bad it may be

before you post your leftist remarks the right-wingers, you punk, whose knowledge of english is so obviously limited to the words "suck" and "f**k", I suggest you brush your spelling, you give such a bad name to your left-wing, "liberal" ideas. You left idiots are on the same track - poorly educated, megalomaniac, know-it-all, and know-all-the-answers, and yes-the-right-wingers-are-fascists etc. You poor lot... You have a one-track mind... Oh I forgot, you are so clever guys, that you don't have time and wish to learn...

37. #32 your logic is wrong
anti Rami ,   sakhnin, Israel   (09.01.07)
if you follow your logic, you get to an opposite conclusion. You say that "resistance acts" deserve lenience. That would mean that Amir was justified in killing Rabin because he resisted Rabin's politics which were "democratic" only because Rabin bought two knesset members for money. On the other hand, the heroic Arab resistance fighters did not attack a soldier but RAPED and murdered a little boy. Later, upon advice of their lawyer, they became "resistance fighters". If Amir is being punished fairly, then the heros of Sakhnin get off lightly, but if justice requires that these rapists get released, then Amir should also go free.
38. Release of Rabin's murderer
John ,   Kansas City USA   (09.03.07)
I hope this never happens. Rabin was one of the worlds great leaders.
