1. Does he get 72 virgins?
David ,   Rhode Island   (03.20.10)
2. to #1 - he gets a 72 years old virgin
hermin ,   haifa,israel   (03.20.10)
there is a small Koran translation error...he gets a 72 years old virgin, not 72 virgins...
3. When you play with fire and attack police officers, expect
Geulah ,   Bar Giora, Israel   (03.20.10)
to pay the price, which sometimes it is death. I have no sympathy for those thugs who would murder those police officers if they only could, no sympathy what so ever.
4. Why the double standard?
David ,   Rhode Island   (03.20.10)
We are supposed to feel bad because a kid got killed by accident rioting because he'd been brainwashed to hate Jews, while sickos who kill a pregnant Jewish woman and her daughters are called 'heroic martyrs' by the apartheid Palestinian Authority?
5. #1 David
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.20.10)
What a crass question you ask, don’t you care that another Palestinian kid has been killed by the IDF and we will lose further respect and standing among the world community? If you had any Jewish spirit and humanity you would be expressing sorrow that we have killed another kid for apparently no good reason.
6. war crimes
(03.20.10)
i hope the israeli government will pursue war crime prosecutions against the idf soldier who targeted this child. my sympathy goes out to the family of the child killed as well as the people and children who have been psychologically wounded by this terrible assault. hameed aboughaze, iranian
7. To the family
zionist forever   (03.20.10)
Please accept my sympathy for the death of your beloved brave son. may his memory keep you strong in these times of trouble. may hashem help your family in this difficult period, and may your son's memory live in eternity
8. To No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.20.10)
What proof do you have that this poor innocent child was brainwashed to hate Jews? Are you just saying this piece of unsubstantiated drivel to in some way justify his needless death? Can you not bring yourself to sympathize with the family who lost their son?
9. This is the Obama Intifada
Juan ,   Spain   (03.20.10)
Stirred up by the idiots in the American government. Israel, continue building in Jerusalem, and enjoy the Hurva synagogue. Don't stop for America, they have turned into your enemy. They are calling this the Obama Intifada - how true it is, what a dangerous Nobel Peace prize winner he is.
10. #6 Eitan, Why do you worry about world respect?
Eitan ,   Jerusalem   (03.20.10)
Don't you know Europe is using arabs as a proxy form to kill Jews like us. They use the terms "Settlers", "Zionists", and "Israeli's" as a replacement for Jew. Read history, do you think that HaShoah stopped Jew killing in Europe? For centuries they developed an ingrained need to kill Jews now they have found that arabs can kill us so they denigrate Jews for defending themselves. You have fallen for the propaganda. You suffer from self hate and deny Jews our rightful homeland like Europe is trying to force upon us with a twenty two state solution. We don't like to see anyone die but better our enemies than our women and children. The arab fifth column is our enemy and should be driven from our borders into Jordan, the real Palestinian state.
11. About that Picture of the Boy...?
The Dude   (03.20.10)
Why are they only standing on his one side to give the photographer a clear shot? If he was gravely wounded and close to death why wouldn't all the medical staff be rushing and trying to everything to help keep him alive? Live adrenaline injection to the heart? Preparing a crash cart and etc? This picture is obviously faked...
12. Shooting a 16-year old is regrettable, Eitan,
Robert Haymond ,   Ashdod, Israel   (03.20.10)
but the boy was putting our own troops in danger. Adolescents are often reckless and, at the same time, a danger to those whom they target. Nonetheless, we do not applaud this death and it makes it all the more evident that we need to find a solution so that neither the Palestinian people nor the Jewish people are continually put at risk. And, by the way, our own troops are barely over the age of eighteen.
13. Yet more ammo for the Pals and their leftist supporters
Jacob ,   UK   (03.20.10)
No doubt leftists and sympathizers alike will use this incident to enrage and encourage more Palestinian teenagers to challenge Israeli security forces whilst standing on the sidelines. I do not condone the death of the teenager but in heated clashes like this people must understand that fatalities will happen and should the Palestinian masses rise up then Israel is perfectly at liberty to use the necessary methods to disperse such trouble. The Palestinans and the leftists supporting these riots must also accept some responsibility for the death of the teenager for encouraging him to take part in such 'peaceful' demonstrations and should the current clashes intensify then the IDF should arrest those responisble for encouraging such incidents, even if this means arresting foreign supporters. I am not attempting to exonerate Israel from blame but the Palestinians and their supporters are just as responsible for encouraging such incidents and then malicously exploiting them to further their twisted aims.
14. throwing rocks
megs ,   amsterdam   (03.20.10)
Ofcourse we already know that when jewish people (like the orthodox) riot, that the response is comepleteley difference. One word I can think of: Untermensch. that's what jews think of the arabs.
15. injured
Conrad ,   US   (03.20.10)
So sad. One man shot in stomach, yet this photo does not show any stomach wound nor any blood nor damage to the area. Another man sustained head injury, but again this photo does not show that at all. Medical helpers always on both sides rendering help. This photo looks poised. Very doubtful religious members violate the sabbath go to another village to ransack it
16. Zionist Forever
Chris ,   USA   (03.20.10)
Zionist Forever Very noble and heartfelt post. This is the Judaism that I know and wish to see more of. Unfortunately, I see way too many like #1 and #2
17. Peace Now demands investigation of Thai civilian killed
Christopher ,   Boston, MASS   (03.20.10)
by Islamo-terrorists. Me make funny!
18. Youth killed
Cags ,   UK   (03.20.10)
#11&15 -Dude & Conrad Shameful -both of you. Imagine the furore if someone suggested the same of a picture of a Jewish youth in the same circumstances?? But of course Palestinian lives are not worh a gnat's fart to people like you.
19. To # 1 & #2
Dave ,   Bs.Aires-Argentina   (03.20.10)
Both your posts are disgusting, they don't represent the ethics of the Jewish traditions. This youth death is very sad indeed. My condolences to the family of this boy, for sure G-d wil put consolation in their life. It´s very ironic and sad too that the age of the IDF's soldiers is nearly the same as of the Palestinian youths that were rioting. However, if it's true that the Palestinians were hurling stones to the israeli Security Forces, (one know that it´s very dangerous and sometimes lethal), it is a fault of them. They should know that they put in danger themselves, because is expected some kind of reaction from the people that was attacked.
20. that picture looks suspicious , who lets a cameraman in an
rachel ,   usa   (03.20.10)
emergency situation.This looks like a Pallywood picture to me !!!!!!!!!!
21. Just remember how they set you up in the past
Harry Wright ,   UK   (03.20.10)
Don't be in a hurry to admit anything without a THOROUGH investigation. They kill their own for the specific purpose of blaming Israel. And don't forget PALYWOOD. Release your story first. If you know they plan a riot somewhere, put out the story FIRST with pictures of the rioters. Don't wait for them to put you on the defence. Get cracking.

"What proof do you have that this poor innocent child was brainwashed to hate Jews?" He was hurling rocks at our forces.
23. Chris
zionist forever   (03.20.10)
Thank you for your kind words. I agree with you (and Dave @ #19) that some of the posts here (#1 & 2 for example) are vile hatefilled comments and do not reflect true Judaism. The sad fact is that these posters are the first to rant and rave about antisemetism even when it doesn't exist yet they cannot see their own hate filled hearts. I just that there are more or us than these bigots otherwise we will never know peace in our time.
24. Stone carving is far better than stone throwing
Joe   (03.20.10)
sadly, these are the results of continuous prodding, inflammatory speeches, and education provided to muslim kids by their teachers, mullahs, imams, parents. HATE ! To # 11 Dude; I am not a medical expert but, like Dura, the exposure to the media is more important to them than the lives of their own kids.
25. Sarah B # 8
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.20.10)
David probably has the same proof that you do calling the rock thrower a poor innocent child. Who knows what really happened? I see no stomach wound on the person in the picture. I don't know who got killed, how, or who actually killed them. I think David raises a good point. There is nothing wrong with feeling sympathy for the family of the boy but I suspect that if their child had killed a Jew they might be passing out candy right now.
26. #15 Conrad. By George, you are right. Lovely, clear picture
Harry Wright ,   UK   (03.21.10)
though. Great angle with everyone nicely positioned facing the camera. I wonder how old it is...maybe 3 years, give or take a year on either side
27. Where is the rest of the story?
Concerned Canadian ,   Toronto, Canada   (03.21.10)
Does YNetNews pretend to be a responsible media source? How can this story be told without a historical context of the recent conflicts between the village of Burin and the settlement of Bracha? Claims of violence from settlers on a WEEKLY basis, including uninvestigated claims of arson, livestock theft, and vandalism has led to constant riots and protests. Why is it that only one side of the story is being reported? It makes it seems that the Palestinians were just rioting "as usual" and the IDF regrettably had to shoot them... What irresponsible journalism!
28. Israel OUT of West Bank
Katherine ,   Australia   (03.21.10)
Israel get out of the West Bank. Leave the Palestinians alone.
29. My condolences
Palestinian ,   haifa/Palestine   (03.21.10)
to the Family of the teenager . I am certain that his family are reading those talkbacks and getting enraged with their blood boiling . as usual the nastiest comments are coming from the american jews who don't live here and sell us bravery for free from their comfortable couch ..like the Rhode-Island pig and the new-york mistress . retaliation is a matter of time if you know the Mideast cousins ,or happen to visit ,read about us palestinians ,i don't want you to cry when that family take an eye for an eye . .. and when that happen David ,you are absolutely right ..they will be giving candy in public even if you whole army is standing there ,, we have seen that a million times . the secret is that God had removed the fear from jews from our hearts . i don't think you understand that ,since you come across as too dump though .
30. #6 is an impostor
(03.21.10)
i would have never written this kind of post at all. STOP POSTING IN MY NAME. IT IS AN INSULT. hameed aboughaze, iranian
