1. Peace Now should evacuate itself from existence...
Joe ,   Ramat Gan   (05.27.08)
2. I dont get it. British/Arabs forced Jews from Hebron in 20s
David ,   Boston, USA   (05.27.08)
Now Israel is doing it? I dont get it. After it was liberated Jews should be reclaiming land stolen by Arabs. While I understand there were Jewish land owners and Arab landowners, what definitiions is the court looking at for ownership? There are centuries of laws governing the land. Which takes precedence?
3. War Now On Peace Now!
Andras Bereny ,   Kfar Tapuah, Ephraim   (05.27.08)
Foreign financed "Peace Now" should really be declaired an openly anti-Semitic hate group and outlawed. That market is Jewish owned and the Hebron Jewish Comunity have demonstrated it time and again.
4. rent & renters
(05.27.08)
the original property owners are Arabs (whom the comitee declined to call them families). The committee members also decreed that the Arab renters do not currently have any right to the property because the walls and land was stolen from ancient Jewish families (other than those contemporary), 4000 years ago. The Jewish families were allowed 60 days to file an appeal to rent the property in an organized manner: they have to review the property record book (bible) to come with something that support their clam. So, what is news in all this story?
5. Toda raba!
Maks ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (05.27.08)
We don't gain anything if we spend money and risk the life of soldiers for protecting these settlers! Keep the big settlements block like Ariel but no one needs those guys....
6. to the ignorant #5
YOEL ,   Raanana   (05.27.08)
These "settlers" live in our holiest place in Judaism, where our ancesters Abraham, Isaac and Jacob's graves are located. They are the eye-keepers of Mearat Hamakhpela. Unfortunately, jews were victims of a Pogrom in 1929 and sent away cowardly by British authorities. Now, I'm thankful to those courageous people who risk their lives every day by living there. For me it's unacceptable that people become a target, ONLY because they are Jews, and that they MUST be protected by the army. I meet arabs in Tel Aviv, Raanana, Kfar Saba... and I never saw any of them feeling unsecure because they get stones from us. In summary, you shouldn't condemn them because they are in danger. You should condemn arabs who throw stones, and want to kill jews. The army MUST protect israeli citizens, because this is its JOB.
7. I will tell you the news!
John ,   Washington, DC   (05.27.08)
The gangs called in the articles families will not dare to stay one night between 150000 Hebronite Arabs without protection of the Israel Offence Forces IOF, but who brought these criminals there from US to live between the Arabs? These racists, fanatics supported by American Zionists Christians fanatic’s money will continue to cause problems for Arabs and Israel occupied forces
8. "peace now",machson watch,olmerd,kadima and cia
Keren ,   Israel-SP   (05.28.08)
are all PIGS! They must be slaughtered for christmas in a goy country. Their meat must be as tasty as the fatest pig can be.
9. To #8
Noah ,   New York, NY   (05.28.08)
With inflammatory rhetoric like that, you should consider signing up with Osama. You would fit right in.
10. AT LIST IN SINGAPORE WE JEWS ARE TREATED WITH DIGNITY...
YITZAK BEN SHLOMO ,   SINGAPORE   (05.28.08)
ISRAEL has a lot to learn form THE PRIME MINITER LEE HSIEN LOONG AND HIS TEAM OF PAP MINISTERS on how to TREAT HUMAN BEINGs as PEOPLE ! IT IS A SHAME TO SEE JEWS GET THROWN OUT OF THEIR OWN HOMELAND.
11. This article avoids the facts
Adam Eliyahu Berkowi   (05.28.08)
The reason the legal process was so drawn out was that thae arabs had no legal claim to the land. The Jews had a long chain of proof substantiated by JORDANIAN and Ottoman documents.
12. Now get the rest of the Jews out of Hebron
Citizen X ,   TA   (05.28.08)
About time the authoirties clamped down on the lunatic right wing settlers. They are an obsatcle to peace and do not represent Israeli public opinion.
13. # 12 from TA
YOEL ,   Raanana   (06.02.08)
Once Pals will come closer, and when you will get missiles on TA, maybe you will think in another way. You're too far from reality. And you don't even know about the story of those people from Hebrom. Some of them handle property contracts that last from the jordanian period. Israeli state doesn't recognize them; and this is THE real scandal. חברון מאז ולתמיד
