David ,   New York   (09.20.07)
Please, HaShem, let the people of Israel realize that the best of the best of the country are the Kipa Sruga and Hesder boys, from Gush Katif to Nov. May his family be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Yerushalayim. We are so sorry for the Henmen family.

ZIonist ,   America   (09.20.07)
5. Joy in his eyes while spking & snging abt Israel is beautful
Zionist ,   America   (09.20.07)
and heartbreaking.
6. The film looks to me like the IDF who looked in the rooms
Rivkah   (09.20.07)
first did not do his job since it appears the slain soldier went into the room after it was looked at by the first soldier. Checking rooms shoud include closets and behind bath curtains and under beds. Pointing a rifle in a room and coming out without a more thorough checking cost the life of a soldier. But if the first one who checked the rooms had been more thorough, he would have been the one killed.
7. Baruch Dayan Emet Blessed be his Memory
Norman   (09.20.07)
Why is israel pardonning PA gunmen ??? Why don't we send on the next operation all those who are willing to pardon our enemies, and those who are willing to tear parts of Israel and handing it to our enemies ???
8. i saw the video

10. No greater sacrifice for country than this
James ,   Alabama, USA   (09.20.07)
The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.
11. May His Blood Be Avenged
Adina Kutnicki ,   US   (09.20.07)
This is one of Peres's 'sacrifices for peace'. As the brave IDF boys go into battle, Israel's leaders have plans of their own - the handover of our homeland to the enemy. IF Olmert's progeny were 'sacrificed' I would be feeling alot better. My condolences to his bereaved family & may his blood be avenged SOON!
12. I want to cry... What a great group of soldiers!
Dan ,   USA   (09.20.07)
May G-d bless them all.
13. What was he doing
Kennedy ,   Croatia   (09.20.07)
..outside of Israel
14. No hero just the hand of a criminal policy
Al ,   Geneva   (09.20.07)
Maybe he was a young and naïve guy instrumentalised by his criminal governement but there is no need to cry for a guy who went to Nablus to kill Palestinian, The Gunmen who succeded to shoot him did a good and necessary job...
15. # 13 & 14
Ivri   (09.20.07)
You could only wish to have the courage,determination,love of country and its people,that these your soldiers have. But then again.... cowards like you have nothing to show for but your ignorant cowardice. Hashem inkom damo.Amen Now....Al...sitting pretty in the most Nazified country in Eurabia after Germany.....Switzerland that was built with Nazi money. And poor little Kennedy in Croatia...aftraid to ask his dad"what did you do in the great war pappa?" guard a death camp? whip people into lines during "selection" time at the gates of hell....or maybe whip jews into death marches. BOTH OF YOUR COUNTRIES HAVE BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS.
16. To #13: what was the Croat Nazi Ustasha scum...
Avraham ,   NYC   (09.20.07)
doing outside of Croatia' s borders other than carrying out acts of atrocities mostly against civilians?
17. 14 Hey Al, anyone that congratulates that is quite pathetic.
freedom ,   canada   (09.20.07)
You need to worry more about the christian oppression in the west bank, than a vital operation in the west bank. You are a christian are you not...???? have a nice day...
18. 14...God Bless Ben-Zion
(09.20.07)
and to you number 14, may you rot in hell...
19. #13 - Kennedy
Maurice ,   Montreal   (09.20.07)
He was trying to stop potential bloody terrorists planning to come into central Israel to kill scores of innocents. That is what he was doing you moron!
20. One of the saddest parts about this...
LEE ,   NY, USA   (09.20.07)
is that the terrorists that were caught on that day, will probably be release in a "gesture of goodwill" in the next "peace summit". May the mothers of these heroes not know from sorrow anymore. Baruch Dayan Ha'emet.
21. to #13 & 14
Richard S. ,   Miami Beach   (09.20.07)
The soldier was part of a group that were acting on intelligence that terrorists in Nablus were preparing to launch a terror attack on Israeli civilians during the Jewish High Holidays. They were acting to prevent that, and they did capture the explosives meant for the terror attack. Unfortunately #14 seems to be an anti-semite demagogue that drools at the fact that Jews will be killed by these savages but is disapointed that the IDF was able to foil this plan. This soldier gave his life so that others may live. The filthy terrorist was killed.
22. To Lee
Avraham ,   NYC   (09.21.07)
I read in the news that the terrorist who killed this Israeli soldier was killed by the troops in the exchange of fire. Other members of the cell were arrested.
23. Ben Zion
PG ,   USA   (09.21.07)
God bless you! You are a soldier of The Almighty, the King of Israel, and my hero! A Christian great-grandmother
24. Criticizing israeli actions is no antisemitism
Al ,   Switzerland   (09.21.07)
I don't care if this soldier was jew or not, this is not the point here...Israel is occupying Palestinian land for more than 40 years now, and the reason why violence is not ending is because Palestinian are resisting, they don't want to end up like native americans. Palestinian will soon win the battle of demography, they do many more children than the israeli...
25. #24
(09.21.07)
this coming from a swiss, yes, antisemite! whose country accepted the confiscation of millions of dollars in stolen jewish art and treasures by the nazis and who supported nazis to the last days of war and hid them very well. give us all a break here. i live in switzerland too in the jewish community of geneva and i know people like you. pure antisemitic.
26. Ani ohev otach
Al ,   Geneva   (09.21.07)
I'm not an antisemite. I was dating a jewish girl for 3 years and I was telling her often "Ani ohev otach"
27. what about the jews?
ariella ,   kansas   (09.25.07)
what about the jewish people, should they end up like the native americans? why is it that people don't see that as well as the palestinian view?
28. Dear Ariella...
Al ,   Geneva   (09.25.07)
The answer to your question is very simple...Worl opinion has bigger sympathy for palestinian because Israel is seen as the bad guy...Wether you like it or not Israel is the occupying power, Israel has a military might, is supported by the USA and uses it's power to opress the palestinian...Israel occupies palestinian land but at the same time palestinian don't have the same right as the jews...Imagine if Israel would occupy palestinian land and would give the same right to palestinians as any israeli citizen...Why palestinian have to be occupied and cannot vote, cannot go where they want in the Palestine-Israel entity....? Israel should just let the palestinian people live...leave the West Bank and let them have their own state...Hatred of Israel around the world will cease very soon, believe me...
29. #24 Baa, baa, black sheep
William ,   San Antonio, Texas   (10.30.07)
The Swiss are just realizing a small taste what the Jews are experiencing with their immigration problems. You have your own demographic problems with a hostile group in your midst. Deal with them first then criticize the Jews.
30. #13 and #14
William ,   San Antoio, Texas   (10.30.07)
#13 He was protecting his country - what you failed to do against Muslim invaders for centuries. #14 The Swiss are going to have to adopt some "criminal policies" too if they want to protect themselves from the rapidly growing, hostile minorities in their own back yards.
