31. Ironic
Michael Berg ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.22.08)
There are criminals in every sector of society. In the high-class group, you're more likely to find cases of business-related crimes, among the secular people in Israel you find a higher murder rate, and drug crimes, and among Chareidim, you'll find stuff like this, and living off the government, which should be considered a crime in itself. (Although its remarkable that even though the majority of people in Israel would like to see the laws changed, it will not happen because the absolute democracy in Israel is undemocratic i.e. unrepresentative of the demos, the people (lit. mob).) It is ironic that there is a immodesly dressed women in the JDate add on the left of the article.
32. And where are the Rabbis...
guy ,   los angeles   (08.23.08)
in Mea Shearim who will say it is a sin to beat up women, hire thugs, torch stores and riot to free criminals ? The silence is deafening .....
33. Will somebody please show me in Torah, or Chumash where this
was an ordained act? ,   This is pure bull.RB   (08.23.08)
34. #19...Gays?
Matan ,   Tel Aviv   (08.23.08)
...since when are their roving packs of Gays attacking women (defenseless or otherwise)?
35. 19: What do gays & attacking women have to do w/one another?
Global Citizen ,   Israel & USA   (08.23.08)
Why don't you complain about the drunk driving epidemic among jellyfish?
36. did I hear correctly?
observer   (08.24.08)
'A young and helpless woman, 'suspected' of socializing with married men...'? Is she perhaps on the game?
37. Why do Haredim get away with
Ilan ,   Tel Aviv   (08.24.08)
These constant violent protests... why are they never arrested, charged and imprisoned for criminal damage.... It sets a very worrying precident.... police please enforce the law, do not have a touble standard to sectors of the society which take the most and give the least.
38. #19 Petra show some intelligence dear
Simon ,   TA the free city   (08.24.08)
Would you please provide evidence of gays attacking women? As a gay man i can tell you that this is absolute rubbish and you know it. I would of expected more intelligence from you Petra. I think that you will find that the majority of Israels gay poplulation are peacefull people going about their daily lives, working ,paying taxes and serving our country yet still denied our basic human rights. hatred and violence has never been our style and we have always believed in peaceful protest. What a shame you had to spread such idiotic homophobia. Shame on you Petra.
39. What ever happened to free will?
moriah ,   sacramento,usa   (08.24.08)
I think there is a place for this kind of behaviour - it's in the TALIBAN!! The Arrogance the Chutzpah of these self appointed judges of morality! We will all be paid for our wrong doings by the ONE JUDGE. We do not need self righteous hypocrits measuring our skirts and monitoring our behaviour. Go ask G for forgivness and do time for your gangsterism!
40. To Tova
Voice of Reason ,   Here & Now   (08.25.08)
Tova is Rivka your sister? You self hating excuse for a human. If you are so into the Palis you will soon have your wish, the towel heads are taking over Europe and will have your Israeli -hating butt for dinner. May HK"BH give you what you deserve.
41. dina d'malkhuta dina!
tom ,   toronto, canada   (08.25.08)
this is a crime and a criminal organization deserving of a full police investigation. since when are jews permitted to take the law into their own hands? this is something that moshe rabbeinu himself hesitated to do! why do these thugs feel that they are above both torah and secular law? and those who protest "in support" of criminals should be punished to the full extent of the law. (but they won't be, due to "coalition considerations".) it is unacceptable that they should be able to fight the police and win - at least not in any normal society. the police should deal with these "protesters", with tear gas, rubber bullets, and water cannon!
42. Can't they just stick with little silver rings...
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (08.26.08)
...like the Christians do? Since they want to live by their own laws without secular intereference, I suggest that they the sanitation services allow the overturned trash bins to stay as they are, and the the fire fighers resist from putting out anything burned in the streets.
43. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (08.29.08)
JESUSALEN IS THE KINGDOM OF THE WORLD.
