1. What the hell about residents??
Yoel   (02.02.09)
I only understood it was spoken about palestinian residents when I read carefully the article. Why undermine there's some doubt? A rifle was found, and the scene is clearly described. All the evidences are given, it's just a matter of honesty...

3. Interesting insight
Avraham ,   Tel Aviv   (02.02.09)
I had an interesting insight now, worth sharing, I think. I believe we have 2 options when we read something in the newspaper: it can happen that the news conveyed be either true or false. Now I wonder: let's assume the palestinian side is the one who's right. That's marvelous, because that spares me of any further explanation - in a couple of minutes a bunch of details will probably be made available in any foreign newspaper, for instance, my brazilian ones. Now... what if... the israeli side is right ? I am really not entering the merit of judging who's right, for I have no access to facts, evidences, nothing besides what the 1st newspaper I read tells me. Now let's think about my last sentence, carefully. I am now living in Israel, and a citizen would often go to an israeli newspaper to check the news. In case the IDF says the truth, that is, in case it was indeed a gunmen firing at the troops - then the news is devoid of any professional journalistic taste. Much more important than that - I have just written some friends - what use is it to complain with the foreign press if we ourselves are not even capable of stating what happened ? If a foreign journalist from Brazil enters this newspaper to check the ISRAELI sources, he would never be able to write an article that reads "Palestinian gunman killed after firing at israeli soldiers". I hope the palestinian says the truth, this time.

9. Peace with Israel
Jim ,   Atlanta USA   (02.02.09)
Quit making war with Israel and support peace and maybe you will get work. Hamas only leads to death and starvation wake up bubba
10. Israel needs support
Rashad ,   United States   (02.02.09)
Who is gullible enough to believe Hamas or the palestinians? They've lied time and time again, they start the violence with Israel, kill their families, etc and no one seems to give a crap about that but as soon as Israel defends herself and inflict casualities its a crime... People are so bias and hateful of Israel its sickening. No one cares what casualities they suffer or what they have to go through everyday with the anti semitism from all sides, living surrounded by enemies. Well I say this, Israel deserves every right to defend herself, Hamas hide behind their women and children to fight and these are the people you want to support? I am disgusted by some of the comments I've seen here and other places.
11. israel kills palastinian neqr hebron
zoro ,   nyc/usa   (02.02.09)
if he was looking for work according to the palastinian why was a rifle found near his body. unless he was looking for a hunting job
12. "Tell the truth." (Eric Clapton)
mike ,   US   (02.03.09)
Yeah, I suggest everyone tell the truth. Now that I have engaged in that little trip to fantasyland, I will return to reality. Israel and Jews world-over have paid billions to finance the resettlement of Jews who had lived for thousands of years in Damascus, Bagdad, Tehran, Cairo, etc., after whom Muslims kicked them out since 1948. Arabs and Muslims have not lifted hardly a finger to resettle, educate, develop or train any of their brethren from Gaza or the West Bank camps, although Muslims control about 1/4 of the earth's surface. That is the explanation for why a Palestinian was even seeking a job in Israel, even if that were true. Look at history. The only way that the Palestinians got any schools or universities was AFTER 1967 when Israel defeated the Arabs who were blockading its ports and massed for war on it borders.
13. A "palestinian man" was killed ??
gary ,   jerusalem   (02.04.09)
The opening line says it all. Who is this reporter, anyway? A member of HAMAS? Instead of writing the bottom line first [an arab terrorist was killed trying to shoot soldiers], we read that a palestinian man was killed..... Oh yeah!, I like that line about the "religious village of Beit Yatir..". How about the "leftist, anti-religeous city or town of....." Give me a break! Self-hating Jews thinking that the world will love them by siding with our enemies.
