Does anyone understand why a suicidal person is normally thought to be mentally ill, except if they are Palestinian? And if he is not mentally ill does he think his demise will stop a conference by his "enemies". I mean would an Arab group cancel a meeting if an Israeli threatened suicide? So if this guy isn't mentally ill then he must be pretty stupid, or the story is not true.

and it certainly does not speak to the fact that these ridiculous extortion tactics by one crazy desperate fool deserve no attention from reasonable people.

What was Ya'alon going to say that this idiot was willing to die to try and silence? Something TRUE, no doubt.

I as an American, was/ am appalled at this last administrations 'tactics' to get info out of our 'suspects' BUT it was FRONT PAGE NEWS- this 'torture controversy. in fact many USA soldiers/people involved are IN JAIL or on TRIAL. THE USA differs from the jewish state because we try to hold our troops accountable. whereas ISrael just lies about it- and accusses others of WAR crimes . you make us sick.

ISrael has Killed FAR more Foreign workers ,and civlilians over the years compared to the /palestinian; side. WHY DONT YOU QUIT THE OCCUPATION AND STOP BUDILING SETTLEMENTS? HUH?

You make us sick , you , not the Americans . What war crimes can you accuse Israel of ? killing terrorists ? obtaining life saving informations by , sometimes , rude ways ? Innocent civilians are not targeted by the IDF , they let terrorist hide amongst them , so they are'nt innocent at all when they are hurt . But you are deaf and blind , you see only one side .

For this i fully agree with you , let him jump , so we got rid of him . And if it was a Jewish protestor ? Any biaised anti Israeli may jump , the more that do it , the better it is .

and an ugly one at that, with an ugly mouthful of hateful prejudice. The fact that Ynet continues to publish such claptrap but often allows honest rebuttals to go unpublished speaks to their selective censorship and biases also. Shame on you, AMERICAN, who has the gall to come on a Jewish newspaper forum to spread anti-Jewish propaganda and present lies and misinformation as the truth. Go find a different website to unload your poisonous spittle, you TOAD.
