1. Israeli arabs have no loyalty to Israel, only danger.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (12.29.08)
2. Remember it, when there will be retaliation
YOEL ,   Israel   (12.29.08)
I am a bit disappointed by what's related, but then don't consider us as racists... There will be some increase in arab unemployment when we will stop engaging arabs for some jobs. I think we have enough (even if more expensive) unemployed jews who need to work. Arab workers take advantage of their permits for beeing involved in terror acts. we must avoid the arab manpower workers.
3. Terrorist attack
Shalom ,   Kiryat Sefer   (12.29.08)
I'm sitting in Kiryat Sefer - there's a siren telling people not to leave their homes. The dog bites the hand that feeds it!
4. You Reap What You Sow
mohamed ,   Gaza   (12.29.08)
this is the law of cause and effect
5. Arab Labour
Yitzchak Wahnon ,   Elazar   (12.29.08)
It is time to stop using cheap arab labour. It may cost more, but it is time to support our Jewish neighbours. Our Jewish neighbours/tradesmen also have a responsibility to be honest! If they want the work, they have to provide a honest, professional and timely service.
6. Expel the Arabs from all of Israel
Mike ,   Atlanta USA   (12.29.08)
7. Brave Islamic warrior
Ofer   (12.29.08)
Thyere are no lack of military targets in Israel and yet this brave Islamic warrior chooses to attack civilians who let him into their home. Some things never change.
8. Do Not Hire Arabs
Yishai Kohen ,   YeShA, Israel   (12.29.08)
How many times must people be warned?
9. #4
June ,   Ashkelon   (12.29.08)
Indeed you reap what you sow Mr. Mohamed of Gaza. You sowed and now look what you are reaping.
10. i told them so...
dovid ,   modiin illit   (12.29.08)
I live on the same street as the attack; yehuda hanasi; and I always warned people here of the dangers of hiring arabs, violating the advice of our sage Rav Haim Kaneivsky. Today we see the tragic results. No arab labor!
11. #4 Amazing Arab Mentality : "YOU reap what YOU sow?!"
Islamophobe   (12.29.08)
Another superb example of the feeble-minded arab... Hee.hee. :-) Its a reversed world to them. Black is white - white is black. The stuff of morons. This explains how outright defeats can be "glorious victories". Crazies.
12. American Jews would do the same
Candida ,   NYc   (12.29.08)
If we were bombing Israel and killing civilians by the scores.
13. #12: A scenario that would never happen.
Arty ,   ra'anana, Israel   (12.29.08)
Neither your hypothetical cause (US attack on Israel) or it's effect - Only an Islamist is capable of projecting such an evil of indiscriminate murder of civilians.
14. Jews Never Learn
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (12.29.08)
It is far too dangerous to employ arabs.This sort of thing happens time and time again.
15. Arab Handymen
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (12.29.08)
When asked what was "Handy " about these handymen the response was "Well they only live around the corner."
16. Israeli success
observer   (12.29.08)
strike, violence, riots that is exactly the image of Intifada, a third one.
17. #16
Surveryer   (12.29.08)
A third failure?
18. Why do we employ Palestinians?
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (12.29.08)
The Palestinians want it all. They want the whole country from Metula to Eilat. They support Hamas even if they are Fatah because of the Arab attitude that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The ludicrous situation is that Israelis in Judah and Samaria employ Palestinians and then are upset when they bite the hand that feeds! Stupid is as stupid does. Another fact that we will have to face in the very near future is the attitude of Israeli Arabs. In the past we have seen how each time there is a conflict they side with the enemy whose ultimate aim is to destroy Israel and the Jewish people. Israeli Arabs are full citizens of the State of Israel, vote and have all the rights that all citizens of a democratic country are entitled but they side with the enemy, incite hatred against Jews and, since the 2000 2nd Intifada, the Arabs in the Galilee have destroyed the good relations that have had existed for years. Our stores, malls are both staffed and patronized by our Arab citizens, but when we here calls by Israeli Arabs of "death to the Jews" then one must consider one's support of their business and professional services and whether we want to buy from supermarkets and stores who employ those who call for our demise. The Arab leadership in Israel has to make a decision. Yes, I can understand their distress and sympathy for those in Gaza. But they must also face the fact that those in Gaza elected Hamas knowing full well that it is a terrorist organization which feeds it people hatred. The people in Gaza made their bed. Now they must lie in it. They must understand that OUR people in Sderot and the Negev have being living in terror for 8 years and that is cannot continue. We cannot allow our children to continue to be terrorized. One can only hope that our Arab citizens will see the folly of their actions yesterday, in Akko and previously and realize. One day they might be called to choose.
19. #12 Candida
mark ,   israel   (12.29.08)
Isn't Candida a fungal infection of the unmentionable body part?
20. pshh those things makes me get nervous....
Paulina ,   Guatemala   (12.29.08)
We have to pray to God :) is the best thing we can do... and to forgive those people (the palastinians) I know how hard it is..-
21. all israel jews to bear arms
alexi   (12.29.08)
The haredi have to do military service and stop being such babies. Torah is no excuse because we wrote the book, not god.Defend yourselves, you babies.
22. If you are a Jew who prefers to live
Al   (12.29.08)
you would never ever employ Arabs. Let this be a wake up call. STOP BEING STUPID! The Arabs want us all dead....there can never be peace with them.
23. Economics 101
i ,   jerusalem   (12.29.08)
If we kicked all the arabs out today, the economy would freeze over, but this is not a reason not to start. Jews can fill the jobs of arabs, ( yes in construction and supermarket labor as well) and the tax system can be used contructively to move things in this direction. Yes, the labor will be more expensive, but the arab wages now are building the arab towns and villages quite nicely, and that money can stay " at home" just as well.
24. Stabbing
Susan Shiloni ,   Medford, USA   (12.29.08)
Was this person from the territories? Perhaps it's time not to hire these people, pay a little more and hire Israelis?
