2. When Jews will learn to handle guns and learn to shoot
Al   (10.29.09)
this bastard would have been sucking dead. As it stands Jews are sitting ducks waiting to be taken down.
3. The latest symptom of the anti-Jewish blood libels spread by
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (10.29.09)
the Swedish press, Turkish TV, and the UN. Jews, come home to Israel, NOW!!!
4. #2 Is right. Jews should buy weapons
jason white ,   afula,israel   (10.29.09)
and learn how to use them. I always carry one of my pistols with me. Even on Yom Kippur. There is nothing wrong with buying,learning how to use weapons and gun safety and practice.
5. It is 1939 All Over Again
Dan ,   Titusville, FL USA   (10.29.09)
If we do not take forceful and positive actions the events of 1939 and subsequent actions will be repeated except this time we will see a NUCLEAR Holocaust. We must settle our own land absent the Arabs and tell the world that the compliant Jew who walks willingly into the ovens is no more.
6. This has nothing
(10.29.09)
to do with Obama's support for the Saudi and Iranian regimes, and blaming the Jews and Israel for preventing world peace.
7. Why Don't Extreme Right Talkback Posters Wait For Info?
David ,   Los Angeles   (10.29.09)
The answer: Because reality isn't important to them, only their fanatical beliefs. There is no information this has anything to do with Israel or politics. It might, but what kind of person shoots off his mouth without knowing anything. I guess we know the answer to that question too!
8. Horrific. Just Horrific!
Christy ,   Boston, US   (10.29.09)
I pray that those who committed such an act are identified and brought to justice. Shooting, and killing, people in churches is also on the rise in the US.

(10.29.09)
That's great Dan, when are you coming?? Or is life better on the Space Coast? BTW, we don't like racists like you here, most here CAN live with Arabs as our neighbours.
12. @Ahi Al, I say the same about Muslims in West Bank
Hasan ,   Казань, RUSSIA   (10.29.09)
When they will learn to shoot at American-Jewish settlers who cut their olive's tries?
13. Too Close to Home
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (10.29.09)
A few months, I was talking to a German-American. He was angry that Germany has laws remaining about advocating Hitler's policies. He made references to US Jews. I am armed with pepper spray and a taser. If attacked, I will use them in a NY minute. Buford Furrow is not an aberration...there are hundreds of Muslim and Aryan cells in America. Sometimes they join forces. I also own a weapon, which uses real shells for home defense. Jews loathe owning, carrying or knowing how to use a weapon., while gun shows in gentile neighborhoods are thriving. What if, what if, a suicide bomber blew the entire shul up, as in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq? What would the timid, naive Jews do then? What does JSt think of all this happening right here? Is their advocacy for peace, causing war? in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943, 500,000 Jews (Reform to Orthodox), had less than 200 guns and a machine pistol. They improvised finally with Molotov Coctails against an SS Division..withn a few days, it was all over. A survivor recently said that they knew they would never win..had no chance at all., but they tried. Folks, 6m Jews in the USA need 6m guns. Learn to shoot. Bar Mitsvah and Bas Mitsvah students of Torah..need also learn the fundamentals. In Mumbai, the rabbi and his wife were murdered. He was emasculated. Shalit is still captive. Iran is playing for time..NYCity is alerted should war break out in the M.E. My bet....Jews will cower, run for cover, expect miracles..like the ghettos of Europe. My fellow Jews, wake up..as Israel goes, so shall we. This incident is a warning, if we dither.
14. 500,000 Jews, 300 Guns
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (10.29.09)
To David: when someone is shooting at you, you don't ask questions who? You shoot back buddy boy. Buford Furrow killed one, and wanted to kill 5 Jews, who are still suffering from their wounds. Recall the incident at LAX years ago. It was obviously against Israel (at the ticket counter). Finally, the FBI admitted same. Wowowo, such a revelation. The Congress passed another provision to the hate crimes legislation, against gays. Attacks against Jews worldwide are increasing. What do you want, a suicide bombing of an entire shul, community center, neighborhood, economic interest, before you get it? To my fellow Jews..on the left to the right, arm yourselves. Pepper spray and tasers are legal. Learn the laws. Every Jewish family must own 3 guns..a 22, 12 gauge and a semi-automatic. Have emergency provisions..on hand. End the NYCity ban on weapons..the gangs have them. Others access to them. Teach basic weaponry to your children. There are thousands of terrorist cells right here..quiet now, waiting. Don't believe me. ask the NYCity police. Why does the LAPD have cars near synagogues on Jewish holidays to eat chopped liver? 250m guns owned by non-Jews. Every captured terrorist targeted Jews, read up on it. 300 guns in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943 for 500,000 Jews., of which 499,000 were murdered. 500,000 Hungarian Jews were gassed at Treblinka,,,while Jews negotiated. Get it! Iran boasts 40,000 suicide bombers..ready and willing. We are their primary targets. Ask Ahmad.
15. Wake Up Jew, Vote Right
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (10.29.09)
While J St berates Israeli policy, religious Jews are shot, with intent to kill. Buford Furrow's goal was to kill as many Jewish children as possible in Granada Hills. He murdered a Philipino. He is in jail, and has discovered Jesus. Wowow. Irv Rubin fell off a ledge in prison..fell? M. Kahane was killed by an Arab for saying and writing what later came true. The Arabs have a boycott (illegal) against Israel. Arabia wants no part of Israel..until Israel surrenders. Iran's Shihab Missiles have targeted Tel Aviv. We are engaging with it's leaders..while Ahmad says the Holocaust is a myth. Myth, ask Germany. Hamas and Hez have fatwas against every Zionist (Jew). Iran has 40,000 suicide bombers..ready to attack. They say, Tel Aviv will burn, if the US attacks their missile sites. Get it, burn, be incinerated. J Street says it wants peace between Jew and Arab, and does everything to insure war instead. We are paying for the self-loathing Jewish liberal types. Does anyone think that an attack against Israel will be limited to the M.E.? I don't. That's why I am a Republican.who voted for McCain. Wake up Jew.
16. "Maybe it was a Jew. We don't know."
Marco ,   Spain   (10.30.09)
17. Kol hakavod! ... but, only two
observer   (10.30.09)
18. #11 ,correction
palestinian ,   Jerusalem ,Palestine   (10.30.09)
occupiers ,not neighbors .. big difference .
19. are they Americans or Israelis?; no-one asked the question
observer   (10.30.09)
20. #17 Is that what you teach in your mosque?
(10.30.09)
21. At the local glatt kosher market, Cambridge Farms, they have
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (10.30.09)
batches of high definition video cameras that could read a lapel pin on anyone in the store. Why on earth would someone buy a poor quality video camera to protect a shul? If a grocery store can afford the best video equipment for protection, surely the shul can find the money so IF there is a next time, they can count the hairs on the shooter's beard (should he be a male shooter.)
22. Nothing to do w/ this story but look at #11, #12 & #18
(10.30.09)
Therein lies the naivety of J-Street and other liberal Israelis/Jews. You can want peace with all your heart, but if it doesn't go both ways (just face it, it really really doesn't) it won't work. Takes two hands to make a clap.
23. #18 Jerusalem is the eternal & indivisible capital of Israel
Yerach ,   Jerusalem,Israel   (10.30.09)
and the Jewish people not some mythical entity called "Palestine"!!! No other nation besides the Jews has ever had a capital here & Jerusalem is mentioned a few hundred times in Tanach but not once in your fairy tale Quran!!!! Archeology bears out that this is Jewish land as does written history. You want a "Palestine" go live in the 80 % of former British Mandatorial Palestine which is today called Jordan. Jordan is Palestine & Amman is it's capital!!!!
24. Chazak V'Amatz to R' Gabay and his shul. Hashem protect them

(10.30.09)
gee, you are incenst??? mad???? because all the facts have not come out yet??? what say you to all the european newspapers and swedish newspapers that post and write articles on a daily basis against israel and idf and create blood libels lies about the idf and stealing of body parts????? why is this information in these papers not create outrage in you???? considering they are all unproven and lies to boot. one never heard you being incensed by these reports, now, dod one??? when they were reported, you, if i recall correctly, jumped immediately to prove they were right, despite them being written without any verification of anything on the ground and them purely being based on heresay by "palestinian sources". you immediatelly jumped and said these blood libels are the truth and didn;t cry and how about the need to proove these accusations after complete investigation and proof. hameed aboughaze, iranian

Sarah B ,   New York / Saviyon   (10.30.09)
Los Angeles police are looking for a black man in a hoodie sweatshirt. I don't know many Jews who fit the description.
