9. She should have been handcuffed

and thrown in the sea. Too many mentally ill people are free and causing death and destruction to others. They should be locked up in clean and safe institutions tiil there is a cure or they pass away
10. "He was a burden"--Sounds like abortion
Matthew   (08.29.08)
We should all be outraged by this woman's callouness. However, why is it that so many people in both Israel and the USA are okay with abortion? The sad fact is that probably 95% or more of the millions of abortions done every year have nothing to do with rape, incest, etc. It is because "I am to young to have a baby," or "we don't have the finances to have a baby," or "I need to finish college" etc. etc. They all boil down to this: "the baby would be a burden." Millions of children are murdered every year simply because their parents would be too inconvienced by having a child. The hand's of societies are dripping with blood, and as nations we are just as guilty as this woman.
11. Sick witch
Talula ,   Israel   (08.29.08)
If the husband knew she was mentally ill what the fuck was he doing allowing her to take him out alone to the beach?!?!?!?! What the hell is going on here! What a terrible terrible thing - I feel sick.
12. #10 don't compare abortion and a 4 year old child
rachel ,   usa   (08.30.08)
Abortion in the first or second month is a woman's choice , NO ONE ELSE!......You don't believe in that simple ....don't have one ,but don't dictate to everyone what YOU believe ..... the earth is overpopulated with uncared children . Until you can take care of all of them keep quiet .....
13. #11 Well, if I had such a righteous potty mouth as you, I'd
feel sick too. Must ,   b that love thing.   (08.30.08)
14. #11 Many people are mentally ill and are with their kids
s ,   Tel aviv   (08.30.08)
Many abusive and mentally ill people are allowed to be with their kids and nobody cares.
15. So many good people desire to have children, and this crazy.
shneerhere ,   usa   (08.30.08)
And this crazy throws away her child. What are they putting in the water and air in Israel lately? Are the pesticides or cell phone emissions making everyone nuts?! Gut in Himmel!!!!!

Choice? Nearly 50 million abortions since 1973...that is your precious "choice"? More babies aborted in the last 35 years than the entire population of California or Canada. Close your eyes imagine that: all of San Francisco, LA, San Diego, empty. The streets, parks, stores, and schools all ghost towns. 50 million people: gone. That is your disgusting "choice". Here is a choice for you and men and woman like yourself: if you are too selfish, busy, poor, etc. to raise and care for a child then you should choose to leave your pants on and not make any children. Since people like you are the ones wanting to abort children then YOU should have to prove that a baby, at any point during a pregnancy, is not a LIVING child. I don't have to prove anything. I hope you are proud of yourself: 50 million dead babies.
17. Why women have abortions
Matthew   (08.30.08)
Look at this: Reasons women have abortions In 2000, cases of rape or incest accounted for 1% of abortions.[8] Another study, in 1998, revealed that women reported the following reasons for choosing an abortion:[9] 25.5% Want to postpone childbearing 21.3% Cannot afford a baby 14.1% Has relationship problem or partner does not want pregnancy 12.2% Too young; parent(s) or other(s) object to pregnancy 10.8% Having a child will disrupt education or job 7.9% Want no (more) children 3.3% Risk to fetal health 2.8% Risk to maternal health 2.1% Other http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_the_United_States Now tell me that this does not sounds exactly like the woman who just murdered her son because he was "a burden." "want to postpone having children"--burden "cannot afford a baby"--burden "relationship problem" "partner does not what a baby"--burden "too young"--burden "will interupt school"--burden Abortion has nothing to do with a woman's "choice." It is about irresponsible, selfish people being unwilling to take responsibility for their actions. Children die so their "parents" can finish college, buy that second car, or keep their loser boyfriend. Such people are no different, morally, than this woman who murdered her son.
18. #17 Very well put.
Jan ,   Texas   (08.30.08)
19. #12 About that choice thing. Yes we all have a right to
pj   (08.30.08)
choose what we do and how we live our lives. And NO ONE, not even God can or will take that right away from us. That's one of the things I like about God. So if women want to abort their babies do you know God will back up their right to do that? Why? Because he gave us all a free will. And he will not take that away from us. However, Adam had a right to choose as well. And he chose wrong. Yet God did not destroy him, or kill him. But what he did do was to put him out of one of the greatest places he ever had planned for man. And with that one choice from Adam, the whole human race was flung into a lifestyle so far below from what God intended us to have of which you and I are a part of. So yes, keep your choice, but by no means think that it just ends with you and an aborted baby. Consequences ALWAYS follow decisions.
20. #18 like I said if you don't like abortion , don't have one
rachel ,   usa   (08.30.08)
matthew ......Who gives you the right to dictate what any woman can do with her body ......Whatever one woman 's decision is none of your business . You can believe in Santa claus if you want .....it doesn't change the fact that its not your body ....until you become a woman , mind you own business .
21. #17 Who says that an fertilized egg is a child ?
rachel ,   usa   (08.30.08)
who are you to moralize to the world what is a human being ?. I think you people have a lot of nerve ..Show me what you are doing to help abused children all over the world ?
22. Rachel
Matthew   (08.30.08)
Santa Claus? Since when is belief in Santa equivalent to murdering a baby? You call it a "choice" I call it murder. I think the 50 million dead babies would agree with me. Like I said, you have a choice: don't get pregnant.
23. #21 Sorry, but that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
Jan ,   Texas   (08.30.08)
If the fertilized egg was NOT a child, why, oh why, would you choose to terminate the pregnancy? And just the very fact that a woman is pregnant is evidence that there is another human being growing inside of her. We don't give birth to dog, elephants,lizards, or alligators. We humans give birth to other humans. To terminate a pregnancy is to cut off the life source of the human growing inside of her. Which by the way, if you terminate the life source of your neighbor, what are you charged with? Oh I know, the charge is MURDER
24. 17 - what's your point exactly?
Talula ,   Israel   (08.30.08)
25. bat yam:mother suspected of
debbie ,   israel   (08.30.08)
To Shneerhere, # 15: Your question is absurd. And from the U.S. of all places, where mothers have drowned multiple children, and then declared them missing. This kind of thing, tragic as it is, happens all over the world. Why should Israel be any different?
26. #23 just has I suspected .....the marbles are not all there
rachel ,   usa   (08.31.08)
27. #26 Marbles? For sure I have none. Brains and common sense.
ABOUNDING! Not so ,   much 4 you though J   (08.31.08)
