1. The problem of neighbour pedophiles is
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.08.10)
international in character and includes European countries, Canada and the USA. The authorities hands are tied for those who have served their time. The risk remains, however, for those who have not been successfully treated while incarcerated and for those who have refused treatment and have served their time. From a psychological perspective, success rates in terms of treatment are very very low as pedophiles remain pedophiles. Pedophilia is inherent in their personality make-up and hard to comprehend for non-pedophiles. There are degrees of pedophilia, however, but regarding those for whom this errant characteristic is core, there is no cure, just risk management. Obviously they remain at risk to the neighbourhood children as seen by their behaviour, i.e., giving money to a child and bringing him on by allowing him to play with their animals. I wouldn't blame the father whose son was chased if he were to wreck havoc on these brothers. With all the children in the neighbourhood, the brothers constitute a very obvious threat. It is an international problem, not only one faced by Israel.
2. Legalisation Would Alleviate Problem
Abdel Karim Salim ,   Jerusalem - ISRAEL   (02.09.10)
Just like legalising marijuana is meant to keep marijuana smoking within normal levels legalising pedophilia acts on condition of parent's & kid's approval would make child molestation quite normal & acceptable & legal, & would keep molestation of minors within normal limits. I seriously doubt any kid on earth has totally escaped from sexual molestation if at least only once in a lifetime ... ! Let us be reasonable, realistic, practical, and wise... !!! If it becomes legal there would no more be left any reason to resort to harmful sexual violence ... !!!
3. Agreed
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.09.10)
It is an interntional problem. If they must be released, please do not release them to a hostel located near an elementary school. Rather like putting the fox in charge of the henhouse, you know?

Did n't you once reveal in a comment of yours that you are a lesbo and that you are proud of it ? But yes you certainly did , and I still vividly remember learning that private matter that you divulged about yourself . But the point is that lesbians , just like gays , could be much interested in having sex pleasure with minors.Am I not right?
5. Children and teenagers, both boys and
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.09.10)
girls, become psychologically devastated when they are not protected by adults and forced into sexual relations before they are ready. As a practicing psycholigst (now retired), I can't tell you how many adults abused as children and adolescents end up in the criminal justice system. Many become borderline personalities, fading in an out of reality. As a general rule, sexually abused boys become violent adults with very low self-images and some become homosexuals, often prostituting themselves. Girls become self-abusers and, not infrequently, prostitutes. I can't imagine what it would do to a whole society where pedophilia became legalized. With all do respect, Mr. Salim (and I am familiar and value your infrequent posts), I must wholly and utterly disagree with your perspective on this issue.
6. It would be a shame
Jan ,   Jerusalem Israel   (02.09.10)
for Israel to end up like America where children learn Never to talk to strangers. It would erode so much of our openess and sense of community. In N.Y and all across America children know this from early awareness. Chances are if these offenders approached them to pet their dogsin L.A. they would run home and tell their parents. Sadly, right now the children of Hadar need this awareness.
7. the protest
jan again ,   Jerusalem Israel   (02.09.10)
actually the citizens in Hadar are being fairly patient and compassionate. They know the guys are sick and are asking the government to get them the proper help before someone gets hurt-
8. ABDEL KARIM
Gaby ,   Central Israel   (02.09.10)
IT IS CLEAR THAT THE YNET FORUM MODERATORS ARE ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL!!...OR DO YOU ACCEPT THE POSTINGS OF A SICK INDIVIDUALS WHO PROMOTES THE RAPE OF CHILDREN?? CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT BUT ANYONE WHO RATIONALIZES THE VICITIMIZATION OF CHILDREN SHOULD BE CENSORED!! YNET YOU HAVE SUNK TO SUCH A LOW LEVEL TO PERMIT THE POSTINGS OF A PERVERTED CRETIN BE VIEWED.
9. to #2 you do aware that many of the cases
ghostq   (02.09.10)
r done by relatives of the children you do not need to look for out side source, I do hope they we legislate against sex offenders in the community keep those sickos from society for good.
10. These two posts signed with Mr. Salim's
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.09.10)
name (#2 and #4) are totally unlike anything else he has ever written. I believe the impostor has struck again. I think Mr. Salim would feel very ashamed if he were of these false postings.
11.  gabby where is the police?
(02.09.10)
i think ynet, the internet server, the police should track down the ip adress of abdel karim and make inquiries and or at least profile him as a candidate for weirdo. this isnt yemen!
12. Regarding pedophilia, how many Readers
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.09.10)
are aware of the mass marriage of Hamas men with child brides, about 450 of them. Each girl is dressed in white, with make-up and eye shadow, next to the man to whom she was bethrothed. The men are equally dressed in formal attire. Not one girl was over the age of ten, some as young as seven! You can view this on UTube: thelast crusade.org/2009/08/07/hamas-plays-host-to-pedophilia. For a write-up on the event, you can simply go to thelastcrusade.org/2009/08/07. It is disgusting beyond belief.

No parent of sound mind would approve any act of pedophilia on his child.Abdel Karim you are one very sick man. I pity your children.

Birdi ,   Israel   (02.09.10)
Abdel Karim you are way out of line here.

Yeah, parents are really going to go for the idea of their children as being viewed as worth nothing more than playthings for some really, really messed up individuals. It is part of the reason that we had a big Catholic scandal. It was not just because of what was done to them, but also because of the horrible messages that was said to these people about their worth and like they weren't worth protecting or fighting for. After everything, some sense of healing and forgiveness perhaps, but it comes at quite a price.
