The High Court is sick, sick, sick. May the justices who voted for Palestinian use of the road be treated to a few Palestinian road "tactics" (i.e. attacks!). Then let's see if they remain as liberal as they are now.

Beit Sira is part of the Palestine Authority. The town's about 10 miles west of Ramallah, right? I have a splendid thought. Let the PA use some of the billions of dollars and billions of euros in aid that have poured into the PA coffers to build their own road. Last week, an IED was found alongside the road on Route 443. Thankfully, it was discovered and dismantled before it could go off. This is not an issue of discrimination. This is an issue of safety and security. It belongs to the IDF, not the courts.

on the route 443. oh and the army has to deal with it? well that makes sense , so the army has to clean up the governments poop? ok , great country we're living in . this is great, i might aswell go and stab myself in the back. G-d bless Gilad.

The IDF applied to demolish a structure being used by terrorists in Gaza, becasue it coudl be used to ambush soldiers. The high court blocked the application, and the building was used to kill Shalit's colleagues and kidnap him - which will result in 1000 other terrorists being freed - and they will be using the Modiin highway.

When it comes to the settlement freeze (Agains Jews) they give all the power to the Defense Minister When it come to the issue of protecting Jews Highway 443 for use of the terrorist they side with the terrorist. Are these judges working for the Jews or the palestinians ???

let Palis drive on 443 2x - 3x daily in army accompanied convois

I suggest we have a proviso to the ruling that Dorit Beinish and Uzi Fogelman be charged when the next attack happens--and anyone with half a brain cell knows it will surely happen. We need to stop the high court from sticking their noses where they don't belong before even more Jews are killed and maimed.

Sure, "pals" can use road 443, after they go through several checkpoints and submit to extensive searches on their vehicles. Considering the terror attacks targeting Road 443, the idea of checkpoints is the least the security establishment can do. And after a while, "pals" will get the idea and find a more convenient way to get to Ramallah. Sad - Arabs forget how free our lives were in 1999 before they chose to launch a terror war against Jewish civilians.

Palestinians are not great drivers, but then neither are Israelis. What is lacking though is any oversight on mandatory insurance and on emission and safety standards for their vehicles. Bring 'em up to standards or keep them off the roads.

I applaud the courts decision although it is appalling that it took 2 years to rule on the matter. This court ruling only highlights the Apartheid system that Israel operates in the Palestinian WB. A network of roads and settlements for ‘Israelis only’ is nothing less than a form of Apartheid. Hopefully this courts ruling will be the start of the dismantling of this repugnant Apartheid system.

There is absolutely no checks and balances, and no accountability under the current system in Israel. The system is a holdover from the Ottoman Turks and the English. Both of these were colonial powers that needed to rule from afar, thereby necessatating an all powerful judiciary. Add on to this the reality that the supreme court has no constitution or document to interpret. There is only a loose collection of basic laws which are wide open to manipulation. This allows the justices to impose their own "morality" and NOT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. Israel is, in effect, a judicial dictatorship. The supreme court can rule that the government has the right to decide security matters (settlers can't build), and then turn around the next day (when it applies to Pals) and say the goverment must find another option. Take a lesson from Honduras. When a division of government tried to impose its will against the will of the people, they stood up and fought for what was right. Honduras did not face an existential threat. Israel does. Time to take action against the fifth column.

...she claimed in another thread yesterday that there are no Israeli only roads. Oh well, she was woefully wrong then and she'll be wrong again today.

its citizens religious identity documents that cause persecution of the ones who don't blend into the muslim society ,what are you going to do about that ?....Your typical racist rant against tiny Israel trying to protect itself shows what a bloodthirsty hypocrite your are ...

Egypt who are being persecuted and exterminated by the muslim majority

"Court rules army must find alternative solution for keeping peace on road between Modi'in, Jerusalem" Place an IDF checkpoint at the exit from every Arab village on 443 and thoroughly inspect each vehicle and occupant when leaving.

What you call an Apartheid system is the result of security and safety measures the Israelis were forced to put in place. It wasn't the Israelis who built separate roads initially - it was the "palestinians" who began drive by shootings on these roads, causing many deaths of both Jewish and Arab Israelis that led to the situation today. There is only one way to lift the separation of roads and checkpoints - a complete acceptance of peace by the "palestinians", without the right of return or E. Jerusalem - and a public announcement in Arabic and English that NO further aggression will come from their side. Until that happens - they must lie in the bed (or drive the poorly maintained road) they made.

that Jews do not rule. Despite the strict policies by some governments on movement, employment, education, even marriage based on either class, gender, or race.....neither BBS or Matty would consider these "Aparthied". In their minds - only Israel is "Aparthied" despite having to take a huge departure from the true definition and historical context in doing so. But their ilk usually don't deal with facts or laws very well - look at how they butcher Intl Law to fit their convoluted perspective of reality.

They work for the terrorists.If we had a p.m. with guts, he would close the high court,jail the "judges" and start over again with Jewish Zionist judges. If the court system is Israeli why do the palis have any right to petition them? Why are they involved in security matters?

Matty stated, "Israel’s subjugation of the Palestinians is a good example of Apartheid with ‘Jew-only’ roads and towns etc." I corrected Matty by stating there are no "Jew-only' roads.

...not Egypt. As far as questions go, do you believe that the IDF shooting civilians carrying white flags is a war crime? Yes or no.

Israel's High Court is part of the PA? Are you yet another insane wingnut? How do you think writing such malicious and untrue trash helps Israel?

Most of the roads are open to Israeli traffic also allow Palestinian traffic. The 443 became an exception after several terror incidents. However Israelis can't enter into any of area A and most of area B under the Oslo agreement. In addition the road from other roads have been closed to Israeli traffic. So if there is apartheid is directed against Israelis and not Palestinians.

Israel

"Beit Sira is part of the Palestine Authority. The town's about 10 miles west of Ramallah, right? I have a splendid thought. Let the PA use some of the billions of dollars and billions of euros in aid that have poured into the PA coffers to build their own road." If your geography is correct, how about Israelis stop using the PA's Highway 443? Now that would be splendid! But then, you don't even know what country you are from.

are you really ?

were you born that way?
