1. Today are stones, tomorrow he'll be shooting bullets
Uzi ,   Beit Shemesh   (11.15.09)
Ali wacko, don't you have anything else better to do than to try to feed us this paliwood crap. he is a terrorist in training, good that he got his ass whooped for messing with Israel.
2. what does his age have to do with anything?
svietka ,   Eli   (11.15.09)
in africa they r trained killers by 7-8, in usa they r in violent gangs by 10 and r used as mules-so whats the big deal about this terrorist in the making being 10? when a soldier or a settler or anybody else is KILLED by a rock(and u all know it happened more then once) does it make a difference how old the murderer was?
3. #1: so better to kill it now: crazy approach!!!!!!!
Eric ,   Hina   (11.15.09)
4. maybe it will teach the lawbreaker a lesson
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (11.15.09)
even a child can break the law, therefore there is punishment. excuse me while i get my microscope to see the scratches (scratches from beatings?) on the little criminal. just another example of bad palestinian parenting. stupid is as stupid does.
5. Despite
Amitai ,   Jerusalem   (11.15.09)
Despite the fact that i'm a rightist pro-settlement and so on, this time, I can fully believe this story. Sad to say, but yeah, there are isrealis who don't have any moral senses, having seen what they did on a friend of mine, himself a non-violent children at the time. I hope the investigations will make things right.
6. In shock?
AJ - Raalte   (11.15.09)
Good! Hopefully, he got such a shock that he'll never throw rocks again! It's never too early to learn that your actions have consequences! Nice sympathetic article there, Ali, with that little criminal.
7. They gave him pita and lebana-
Israelit ,   Israel   (11.15.09)
they should have given him makot and beytot, little terrorist in training .
8. Yeah, right
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (11.15.09)
Beat him in the legs with a club? I think not. All I see are two scratches, probably made by brambles. He was held for eleven hours, and claims that the soldiers who detained him were the ones who allegedly beat him with clubs. He's lying. Had he been beaten in the legs with clubs, he'd have some pretty impressive bruises after an eleven hour wait. Returned in shock? Are his parents qualified physicians? Do they know the symptoms of shock? Did they report an erratic (sometimes weak, sometimes racing) pulse? Clammy skin? Rapid breathing? Confusion? Lethargy? No. Did they take him to the hospital? No. Trust me -- if you have ever seen someone exhibiting the symptoms of shock, you race to the hospital. They're scary. Lies, lies and more lies. Do they get it with their mother's milk?
9. When playing wth fire, expect to get hurt!
Anat   (11.15.09)
10. & what of the Jewish stonethrowers @ Intel?
will they b arrested   (11.15.09)
11. "Just because"
Ellen Minaker ,   Israel/USA   (11.15.09)
When asked why he threw stones he replied, "just because", have to agree that this is an example of bad parenting. Loudspeakers encouraging residents to participate in a demo. At that point parents need to decide where their children are. AND if they are going to go--see what they are planning to do. If the right wing in Israel had loudspeakers encouraging people to go demonstrate those on the speakers would all be arrested for "incitement" The double standard is again alive!! Re: the beating on the legs--I can't even see the scratches mentioned by another talkbacker. Who are you kidding. Beating leaves marks, bruises, etc. He was no more beaten than you or I.
12. #8 You are expert in everythink but the justice and truth.
Abousamra ,   Lebanon   (11.15.09)

14. Same treatment for Jewish stone throwers?
David ,   Jerusalem   (11.15.09)
And what about our stone throwing terrorists from Meah Shearim? Are all of you on this talk back willing for them to recieve the same treatment?
15. THE ARAB KID IS LUCKY HIS FATHER DIDNT STRAP A SUICIDE VEST

16. Lions
British ,   UK   (11.15.09)
Does the bravery of the Israelis know no bounds?
17. #10 reply - no they wont
Avi ,   Israel   (11.15.09)
No let me explain , the stone throwers outside Intel are ultra orthdox and operate outside the law, not only that but they are so holy they dont have to work, pay taxes or serve in the IDF , all clear now ?
18. At Sarah B.
Efraim ,   Baltimore   (11.15.09)
"An erratic (sometimes weak, sometimes racing) pulse? Clammy skin? Rapid breathing? Confusion? Lethargy?" This is what they should all get in due time. Amen.
19. confess to beating the child
to # 12 ,   Il   (11.15.09)
yourself- Abousmara abdulala
20. 10 year old terrorist
frank ,   Israel   (11.15.09)
If he isn't punished, how does he know he was doing wrong. Or if he doesn't think he did wrong maybe it is time to realize that not everyone thinks the same way. Again an excellent example of the children fighting an adult battle. If his parents are so insistent that he get hurt for their cause, then fine with me. Where were his parents and why aren't they there to Share the responsibility. He will be praised as a hero. I say slap the crap out of the kid, and maybe, just maybe, he will learn not to put his finger in the fire. If not, next time I hope he isn't as lucky to find sympathic israeli hands. personally I would not have been so generous.
21. # 8 is what zionizim is all about !!!!
Dafer ,   haifa   (11.15.09)

23. stop whining sending a child to throw rocks
ghostq   (11.15.09)
is pathetic where r his parents, and their responsibility for his safe being, disgusting, they know the child will get hurt cause after all it's violent demonstration and they did nothing. oh the women and children speack is obsolete.
24. to #17 Avi your right those orthodoxs
ghostq   (11.15.09)
should be in jail as well.
25. to #21 your people send children
ghostq   (11.15.09)
to do adult work, and than cry with the women and children famous speach. sorry but no sympathy.
26. to #10 actually according to the news
ghostq   (11.15.09)
Israeli police arrest some orthodoxes that demonstrated near the parking lot thing.
27. Only 11 hrs? Weren't little Jewish girls arrested FOR DAYS
Who can forget?   (11.15.09)
and WEEKS then, before the expulsion? And they weren't even throwing stones, just blocking traffic, the same the left have been doing all the time.
28. me? no it was #8 who woke up that way!
#10   (11.15.09)
29. This is insanity. The boy had
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (11.15.09)
to be stopped but, on the other hand, between our soldiers and the craziness of Palestinian parents and leaders, we are creating hatred and future terrorism. Nothing good will come of this. Of course, we may be misled. It's altogether possible that the boy was treated in a kind manner and then, subsequently, his parents and other village elders convinced him to lie and deliberately twisted his mind.
30. More on Age....
Iceman ,   Toronto, Canada   (11.15.09)
" Despite his young age, Muhana was arrested." So what shouldve been done to him? Sent home with a smiley face?!?!? You throw stones you get arrested and it should go on his record. As in any other part of the world.
