1. The Israelo-Arab conflict.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (04.04.09)
The Middle-East conflict is not just a regional conflict. We are all now in a much bigger game. All of us – the US, Israel and Europe are all conscripts in a war of ideas. If Israel, Heaven forbid, were to go down, then they would be next. But no one sees this. Israel doesn’t see this, preoccupied as it is with the military aspects of its struggle. Moreover, many people in the US and Europe sees Israel as the principle reason why the West is under attack – instead of, as it should - as the front line of the defense of the West as explained at : http://xrl.us/bjfox
2. Had this been this past Monday
Arie ,   BaGolan   (04.04.09)
The 1%ers would have still been in control, the Border police and Tzahal would still be under stand down orders, and Israelis would have been killed. A new dawn!
3. Mr Bernier
walt K ,   Sherbrooke, Canada   (04.04.09)
Ya, ya, and it is also in reason of Israel sel-defense politics that muslims commit political and ideological troubles in many African, asian and oceanian countries. Ultimately, the worst is that muslims will overpopulate the world and... that is the worst danger for the planet who will be getting back in dark ages.
4. Terror attacks
jeremy ,   hula valley kibbutz   (04.04.09)
This is the time of the seasons. Terror attacks along the border seem to start every Shabbat about this time of year. Great going IDF, keep up the body count
5. But UN sopps say "open the borders" - Who are they kidding?
(04.04.09)
"Let the aid come in" ....yeah right.
6. Pali's can't continually stock piling
Ypip ,   Canada   (04.04.09)
They need to use some of it to stimulate their 'economy' and keep up their journalistic integrity.
7. We spoke in Arabic, she did not reply ..!
Santa ,   North poll   (04.04.09)
Maybe she did not understand! Maybe she was not an Arab..was she wearing headscarf ? Borquo? Way are you jumping into conclusions? Israeli public is always like this..jumpy...is it always the bad day of the month for all of you!
8. Terrorist attacks border guard
Dany ,   Toronto, Can   (04.04.09)
What does it mean: "The guard at the entrance averted her arm, and..." , when the Heberew Y'net tells us that the Sheen Ghimel 1st TALKED to her , so she can drop the gun & so on! What kind of a soldier is this when he asks/begs 1st ? This soldier should be court marshaled FOR NOT OPENNING FIRE 1st ; There's no time for arguing here !
9. good thing she is dead at least
zorro ,   nyc   (04.04.09)
10. will she get 72 virgin men?
(04.04.09)
11. Destroy the terrorists.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (04.04.09)
The West should not be the only one to respect the Geneva convention. As has been proven since 60 years, unfortunately, peace is not an option in this part of the world. The Muslims in general and the Arabs in particular do not make a lasting peace. The maximum that Israel can aim for is a temporary limited ceasefire or an armistice. We should not accept a limited ceasefire or an armistice, but fight the terrorists, defeat them and destroy them. We should stop them with a clear cut victory as explained at : http://xrl.us/biz8x
12. To Santa of the north poll !!
muriel ,   israel   (04.04.09)
You are pathetic - what language do you think she would have understood ?
13. Well done, Israel
Cameron ,   USA   (04.04.09)
You handled the incidents quite correctly. When you encounter a wild dog, you grab your rifle. Just common sense.
14. terrorist wonders
observer   (04.04.09)
if she had attacked regular army soldiers, then Curiel would have called her super-terrorist.
15. question of uniform
observer   (04.04.09)
civilians were disguised as border guard officers, so she was terrorist. but, when soldiers shot to kill plain civilians, they were heroes.
16. she couldn't find a match from the IDF girls?
observer   (04.04.09)
17. #7, what exactly would it take to be conclusive?
Danny   (04.04.09)
She is a bedouin called Awad al-navari, this is not in dispute. You claiming her native tongue was chinese?
18. #1 Robert - The problem is that the west
Marcella   (04.04.09)
particularly the EU does not seem to have the desire to defend its values. They are surrendering a little more each day. They've lost the equivalent of the will to live. And if you add the demographic factor to that, Europe and what it represented in the post-war, is as good as lost. And as far as the US goes, they just want to be liked now. They are trying to show their gentle, multicultural side to the world, including to tyrants and murderers. And so Israel's foes are now the US government's friends. Think of all that money going to Gaza.... It's just sickening.
19. #7 Santa
truth ,   new york   (04.04.09)
Perhaps she was erudite in latin? Imbecile.
20. well done IDF
observer   (04.04.09)
now, you can't retract your words; she was armed, wasn't she.
21. This is the solution for a lack of Capital punishment by the
meir elazar   (04.04.09)
court. She will not be part of any prisoner exchanges which is what Olmert was infamous for letter murderer terrorists loose. In the last few incidents, they put 4 and 11 bullets into the head of the terrorist put an end to the attack. Terrorist should know that they have NO CHANCE. They will be killed in the act of their terror. Their bodies should also be held until we get Shalit back alive. The govt has moved to the right but not far enough.
22. had he shot first, those bastards would have said
observer   (04.04.09)
he killed a 16 Y girl, unprovoked.
23. DEAD RETURNED CREMATED ?
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (04.04.09)
THE DETERENCE OF FUTURE TERRORISTS NEEDS TO BE ASSESSED WITH REGARDS TO THEIR SPIRITUAL DERIVITIVES IN THEIR DESIRE FOR AN AFTER-LIFE .MOSLEM TRADITION I BELIEVE IS SIMILAR TO THE JEWISH ONE OF GIVING THE DECEASED A BURIAL WITH THE BODY INTACT AND NOT CREMATED.PERHAPS,FOR GOOD MEASURE "hARAM FOOD"SHOULD BE THROWN IN WITH THE ASHES .THIS ,INORDER TO SHOW HOW FAR WE ARE PREPARED TO GO TO STOP THEIR EVIL INCLINATIONS.
24. guns supplied by Israel
observer   (04.04.09)
Israel used to give bedouins arms to prevent infiltration and smuggling across the former Israeli-Jordan borders of the WB. The irony is that it might be a Bedouin Guard who shot dead Basma Nabari of Hura village.
25. She won't be giving birth to any terrorists!
Yonason Herschlag   (04.04.09)
26. Full facts not know yet.
winston ,   London   (04.04.09)
There is nothing to cheer about the death of a 16 yr old teenager. The full facts are not known yet why she did it. It is often the case that her family is receiving money from terrorists if they are prepared to sacrifice a family member. Yes, the soldiers had to defend themselves but no one should be happy what has happened.
27. More terror attacks from the West Bank after Gaza war.......
(04.05.09)
which indicates, once more, that Israel's harsh military campaign in Gaza was a total and complete failure. It made West Bank and Jerusalem Palestinians even more angry with Israel. Now, we even have Arab Israelis trying to blow up Haifa mall. God!
28. Arab women
Rachel ,   R. Eshkol,Jerusalem   (04.05.09)
Sometimes young Arab women do these terrorists attacks knowing they will get killed in the process. It is often their only way to escape a marriage that their family is forcing them into against their will.
29. Remove settlements between Beer Sheva and Dimona.
Daniel ,   Israel   (04.05.09)
Which mushroomed up after 1996.
30. to #15 you can't
ghostq   (04.05.09)
handle the fact that arabs send their women and kids to become shaid, well deal with itthis is the proff, cause that's what Hamas did in gaza.
