It makes no difference.The result and the punishment are the same.

Jewish Terrorist or Charaidi ... So why don't you mention Arab Teen Terrorist !!! Ynet is need of Psychiatric Care.

Yes, it has be confirmed that the two boys were Arabs. What is the difference? It still happened and it is a terrible thing. It is also terrible however that many people who read the article will assume that it was Jewish Israelis. Not to say that it could not have been Jews We must educate everyoe regardless of their religion.

but since they're Arabs, neither their religion and not even the word "terrorist" would be included. This is the first sign for you to know whether they are Jews or non-Jews. On the other hand, if a religious Jew would think of killing some terrorist, he’d automatically be called a terrorist by the Left bias media even if he didn’t actually kill anyone. It's about time you know that fairness and accuracy in the Left media cannot be expected.

Talk about depraved indifference. These murderous animals should be thrown in jail for the rest of their lives. If they would kill someone for a cigarette, imagine what they might do if someone refuses to give them a shekel. Disgusting.

It clearly states, in the opening sentance of this report, that the murderers are ARAB. So to all the talkbackers blaming Jewish teens, I guess you should all learn to read English first before you go shooting your mouths off against Jewish Teens (although some of them are not much better - but it is wrong to generalise).

We are only fooling ourselves by thinking we have some input to Israeli society as our English language emails are not translated into the Israeli Hebrew site which is the one that counts and their comments are never seen by us. We are just YNETs useful idiots talking to ourselves a small community with no real effect.Reply in Hebrew if your serious.

It's sad.

boys were Arabs. Although I admire Ynet, in respect to naming names and ethnic groups, I have found that whenever a Jew is accused, Ynet identifies his/her Jewishness, i.e., "Jewish terrorist". On the other hand, whenever the ethnicity is not identified, as in the case of the two boys, it is likely to be because the accused are not Jewish and most likely Arabs. The editorial policy is erratic and should become consistent. One of the strenths of Ynet is that it is not "politically correct". The current policy is one which I would expect from Haaretz, not Ynet.

Even if they are young, they better be justly punished and learn the lesson. Otherwise, other teens will continue the same.

SHAME on them! Indirectly, they were helping the murderers. And this really reflect badly on this society, not just the parents and the boys.

we are all guilty.

You demanding everyone chatter away in Hebrew for some supposed beneficial effect? English is the "lingua franca" of the world. You would be wise to make your peace with that reality.

Israelis who speak Hebrew are the ones who change facts not the small English speaking email community and Israelis dont read our emails .Im sorry if your bubble was busted but thats reality here.We have as much effect as emailers to a Hungarian English site, We are talking to ourselves.

IT SAYS IT UNDER THE TITLE OF THE ARTICLE.

To Arabs, that behavior humiliates them, particularly when directed from a Jew, and is therefore punishable by death. Their drunkness merely released them from their inhibitions so they could act on their true feelings.

Murder is murder. I would also expect a Jewish person guilty of murdering a Palestinian to go to gaol too.

Would world media stay quiet if it were 2 young jewish boys killing an elderly ARAB???????

I think the article makes it clear these were Arab teens. Not that it matters - teens drunk can do all kinds of damage, whether Arab or Jew. As a mother of teens who have not exactly followed my path, please don't be too harsh on the parents. Sometimes things really are out of our control. That said, they definitely need to be punished for their crime.

But if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbor, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.

The difference is equality in reporting! When a religious person commits a crime, Ynet points it out. When they are non religious, or in this case, Ynet did not mention at first that they were Arabs, only later they changed and added the words due to readers prodding. Ynet, does Y=yellow?

Is there a disease going around in Israel which causes blindness when reading Y-Net? The very first words of the article identify the boys as Arabs. Why don't you and many others of these talkbackers read the article and pay attention?

Unfortunately, Israeli Jewish hooligans also murder and set upon innocent victims. There should be no inequality in the punishment, whether they are arab, christian, jewish, or whatever.

the occupation of palistine made them do it. ya right. they"ll walk cause they're kids so don't get to upset. what's really sick is that nobody came to help either during or after the murder. how sick is that?

While Jpost and Arutz Sheva correctly identified the murderers as Arab boys, Ynet didn't. ONLY AFTER COMPLAINS from readers. Ynet you can fool many people many times but not all the people all the time.
