towards the situation caused by your initial irresponsibility to begin with.

Legally, only a country can try an individual for treason. Treason is an act against a nation-state. The Palestine Authority is scarcely that. They are a barely-constituted rabble, which is not the same thing as a country. Where is the international outcry against this clear violation of every known concept of law? Besides which -- free enterprise is free enterprise. If you own something, you can sell it. Again -- where is the international response to this clear and egregious violation of law and precedent?

who gave them arabs right to buy or sell the land ? not the ottomans, cause they had no land ownership according to ottoman tabu, then who? JORDAN? jordan's legal rights on the land don't apply anymore.

while wanting fellow brethern dead because land was sold to a Jew (which is a discriminatory law) they whine about a certain Israeli apartheid which is supposed to be there. (?) Well, Jews do not get killed by fellow Jews because they sold land to Arabs!

I'd like to know where all the 'human rights' people are right now... ...their 'friends' who they champion so much are about to murder a man because he sold the Jews some land. Can you believe that? That is just unbelievable. Preposterous. What a bunch of barbarians. Give them some more aid.

Talking about racism ... No matter whether it's wise for Jews to live in Hebron, this definitely smells.

It seems you rely on your own resourcefulness to justify or condemn what is going on as if others were still immature or quite retarded ! Plainly it is still a state of war between Arabs and Israel,and according to international law Israel is still occupying this land which the world community,on top of which is the USA the main supporter of Israel,still refuses to recognize as legitimate,legal part of post-1948 and pre-1967 Israel...! Certainly selling land to an occupier in time of war is indeed an act of high treason for which the perpetrator should be mercilessly executed so that others would most certainly be deterred from following him on the path of treason and collaboration with occupiers.Thus far it is still occupation by Israel and Palestinians still have the right to claim the land , but when a fifth columnist sells his land or home to occupiers the situation no longer remains occupation but rather legitimate,legal ownership by Jews. And if this process of treason keeps going on unchecked the Palestinians would be left with no land to claim rightfully...! You may talk about free enterprise when it is time of peace and mutual recognition.Until then selling real estate to Jews should definitely be punished with execution !

Should it will be via versa and Jews would be tried for treason for selling properties to Arabs?! What screams it will generate around the world? However it shows real face of "our partners" for peace! Best proposal as the answer for such Arab law is try for treason any Jewish employer that employed Arabs and it does not matter from Janin or Haifa.

Israel to treat them wrong they have themselves, mmm to humen right please speak louder cause noone can hear you!!!!!

..Jews selling land to Arabs....look at the law in Israel!! Jews cannot do it even if they want to do it...it is in the law and Same in Palestine..the dispute is on the land... Arrogant ignorants...(in one word Israelis)

And anyone caught selling land to Jews sentenced to death. Where are the riots outside the Palestinian General Delegations?

Occupation is not the issue and Palestinian statehood has never been the answer. Only when Arabs demonstrate acceptance of Israel as a Jewish state will negotiations produce peace, not bloodshed. Anyone who can claim that if Israel returns its re-claimed territory and in the process dangerously weakens itself that this will guarantee peace is a dreamer and completely out of touch with reality. The goal of the Arabs is Israel’s destruction and that is why nothing has worked and nothing will work as explained at : http://xrl.us/bmdnh

You people are the biggest racists in the world. In Jordan there's also a death penalty for selling land to Jews, in S. Arabaia people can't worship other relgions than Islam - do I need to go on? You lot live in middle ages, and you speak about freedom, justice, democracy, human rights - wake up! You Karim write an eloquent letter here, showing that you have education, but it doesn't change the fact that you're a peasant, as all your people are, and you barely handle shepherding sheep, so leave the global problems to somebody else. Seek consoltaion in the embrace of you mukhtar or mullah. Stalingrad, heh? Read a book or two? But as I said - you're still a peasant and will always be.

Rely on my own resourcefulness? No. I rely on the law. As a lawyer with a background in international affairs, I can do that, you see. It would seem the only solution, then, given Palestinian disregard for well-established international precedent and simple code of statute is to deport all the Arabs from the West Bank. Israel's acquisition of that territory is, after all, fully legal (see Hague Second and Third International Conventions). It would seem to me that Israel has an obligation to prevent and preclude the trial of this individual for treason. That is the greater good. If it takes deportation of all the Palestinian rabble from the West Bank -- well -- so be it. You made your bed; you have to lie in it. For the record, sir, Jordan attacked Israel in 1967. That's when they lost the land. Israel fought a defensive war, and the land she acquired as a result is HERS TO KEEP. If the Arabs living there cannot abide by recognized international law (and no, Sharia has no place here) -- well, those who violate the law have no place in a civilized country. Bye-bye. Have a nice life --- in some other country. We will not let you pervert the laws and statutes of Israel. Go defy someone else's laws.

the arabs in the village near Betar told me that when the relatives of the executed "traitor" bury their dead, they pour 10 cubic meters of concrete over the grave, and guard the site until it hardens, to protect the corpse from the revenge of the people who would dig it up and mutilate and degrade the corpse.

It is not worthy of treason. Hebron has ancient Jewish history as well as an Arab history. Both should respect each other. Unfortunately, all you get in Hebron are Jews who hate Arabs and Arabs who hate Jews and leftist you tell you how much of an oppressor you are. Now if we had Jews and Arabs who respected and cared about each other this could be a thriving and beautiful and prosperous city. A pity!

denying landsale to a purchaser due to his religion and origin is a criminal offence. 2 years ago, near Grenoble (France), a landowner was fined, sentenced to pay damages and forced to sell to an arab family. Palestine maintains an apartheid system against Jews, like most other arab countries.

While Israel is an occupying power and the settlers are by international law illegal The West Bank, all land transactions and changes in the demography of the occupied territories are illegal actions. Those who sell land to the enemy are traitors, Quislings, and deserve what's coming to them. PERIOD.
