1. trash
RobertK ,   Jerusalem   (01.27.09)
Unfortunately we, too, have our trash people. Punish them so hard they'll be deterred from ever doing crap like that again.
2. Imprison them
Marcia ,   Tel Aviv   (01.27.09)
This is a shame. These kids have to pay. This country cannot allow such horrible acts. Law enforcement is what we're waiting for. The arabs must be protected as the jews.
3. Defying reality
Paul ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (01.27.09)
Unfortunately this is the result of forcing a hostile Arab population to 'co-exist' and threaten Jewish lives. Co-existence does not work with a population that truly believes they are the true owners of the land, while their relatives are few km away plotting our deaths. Transferring of a hostile population is not ethnic-cleansing it is the ultimate act of mercy when faced with a population that cannot allow itself to recognize the existence of Jews.
4. just nationalistically motivated, not criminal one!

5. Can I be sarcastic?
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.27.09)
The youths were angry over grievances, their behavior is understandable because of missile fire from Gaza, they are protesting the racism in Arab countries against Jews, maybe it's because of poverty, right? What are the other excuses the looney liberal bleeding hearts use to excuse Arab violence? I'm not condoning this behavior, I'm just being sarcastic & pointing out the different treatment incidents like this receive in the media. If this had been Arab violence against a Jew, it would not have been a headline.
6. Garbage amongst the Youth !
Moshe Israel ,   Tivon, Israel   (01.27.09)
Garbage amongst the Youth ! Left, Right, religious , secularists ; WE can NOT tolerate a gang physically assaulting a peaceful man ...Arab or not ! Moshe
7. #5 Thanks Terry,Straight to the point
Trumpeldor ,   eurabia   (01.27.09)
I could not agree more.
8. The root of the problem:
Keren ,   Israel-SP   (01.27.09)
Arabs do not want to live with us;we don't want to live with them. It is as simple as that.
9. Dog bites man - that's news
Lila ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (01.27.09)
The usual, every day fear which Israelis walk around with, of attacks from Arab citizens who hate the country they live in and the people they live with, isn't news. Girls are beaten and nearly raped walking from Kiryat Arba to Hebron - not news at all. But this - ah, newsworthy. Innocent Arabs should feel just like innocent Jews, no? Why should Jews be the only ones living in fear in Israel?
10. Arabs throw stones & get killed
Futura ,   Sweden   (01.27.09)
When arabs throw a stone at a Israeli car, they are shot and killed by the IDF. Then the talkbackers scream "terrorists", "racists", "well done IDF". And now? What is the difference? It seems to me the "hasbara" is the same as brain-wash.
11. he is crowd
mark ,   suilmaniya,iq   (01.27.09)
Mohammed u r really crowd man,you should fight back and beat them man,if i were in your posstion i could eat them by my teeth,they are just tenn,
12. Animals!!!
Liora ,   Tel Aviv   (01.27.09)
I hope they get along time in prison!!!
13. to Muhammad
Gregg ,   Haifa   (01.27.09)
I wish you a good recovering. And I hope those kids will get what they diserved. Everybody in this country has to be treated equally. No matter where they come from or their religion. Shame on those kids. Shame on their parents and shame on everyone here who thinks that they are not responsible for it. We live in a democracy and in a democraty everybody has the same rights. Muhammad, you ll stand up again and be proud of who you are. You are the hero here. (and you're cute!!) Gregg
14. Jewish youths inspired by their Arab peers?
Cameron ,   USA   (01.27.09)
Bad shit coming full circle?
15. #13 The root of the problem:
Keren ,   Israel-SP   (01.27.09)
"Arabs do not want to live with us;we don't want to live with them. It is as simple as that. " AND: Certain christians want to live with us and we don't want them to live with us. Conclusion:Time to "greggs"and "mohammeds"to get out and go to live in Rome(Europe)and in Arabia. Israel is for Jews(and ,at most,for our REAL few friends! )
16. A JEW WOULD BE SKINNED ALIVE IF HE TRAVELED AN ARAB TOWN,
.......DACON9   (01.27.09)
STOP YOUR CRYING MEASURE FOR MEASURE MAYBE NOW YOU CAN SPEAK DEFENDING JEWS THAT ARE ATTACKED, RAPED OR KILLED FROM YOUR OWN PERSONALY EXPERIENCE DACON9
17. #5 It Is Because Of The Occupation
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (01.27.09)
Of Jewish land by the Arabs.
18. disgusting
Ilana   (01.27.09)
I am ashamed our youth do such things. I realize they are angry at "arabs" But they need to obide by the law and realize that not all arabs are hamas! And they cannot take the law into their own hands.
19. Knowing the difference between right and wrong
(01.27.09)
There are people doing inexcusable things on both sides and this is evidence of that. However, while the Israelis condemn such behavior the Palestinians celebrate it; that is one of the fundamental differences between the two sides. I'm waiting for the day when a Palestinian speaks out against violence towards a Jew. Until then may the Israelis continue to be a truly moral People.
20. 19 , you are RIGHT , 100 %
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.28.09)
