I would like to wish a pox on all those who were part of this tragic story the "adult" that bought the alchohol for them those that taught these children to hate Jews as subhuman "monkeys & pigs"and the indifferent passersbys have become & desensitized by our media who saturize our youth from morning til night with sex and booze & an anything goes lifestyle. and lets not forget secular parents almost total abdication of parental authority, Ramadan and guilt for drinking may also have had a part as well,a lot of culprits here in this tragic story.

Oh, I suspect that had the teenagers been Jews and the victim Arab, you'd be all over the place with it. However, what with the perpetrators of this depraved and hideous act being Arab and the victim being Jewish, we get your pious and pithy statement that religiosity and ethnicity have no bearing on this crime. You are pathetically transparent; you fool no one.

"Care about their education and upbringing" You mean, like, don't sell them to be turned into suicide bombers, right? It's hopeless from the get-go, Patrick. Leopards cannot change their spots. Arabs cannot stop behaving like Arabs. And the children are the worst of them -- violent, vicious and without a soul. Sad.

THe passerbys should be arrested as well. Not doing anything while a man is laying there dying should be a crime. disgusting people. if he was part of my family, god forbid, i would kill those kids

This is what's happening day in and day out on German streets. Muslim "youth" or for that matter "teens" assaulting people. 8-2009, Cologne: Muslim stabs German beacause the request for a cigarette was turned down. 10-2009,Soest: Muslims assault and rob BLIND 15 year old German. 2-2010,Leipzig: Muslims stab German because he didn't give them a cigarette. 3-2010,Berlin: Muslims stab German police apprentice because he didn't give them a cigarette. Totally unrelated SINGLE incidents. Islam is peace! Say otherwise and be killed. Good news for Israel: Germans finally are about to understand what kind of people Israel is up against. I sincerely hope Israel's Intelligence is able and willing to fully exploit this new situation and turn Germans and other European nations into truly steadfast allies.

but there is ZERO words "Arab", "Israeli Arab" or so. So, WHERE you have seen, that two boys were Arabs???

For those of you confused by earlier talkbacks, please be aware that the original article was replaced after a short time to include the fact that the accused are Arabs. This was not mentioned in the original piece.

THESE BOYS ARE ARABS!!! the jewish values are still intact!

Throwing them in jail for the rest of their lives would be a waste of taxpayer money. A better alternative would be to either use them as crash test dummies or to clear mine fields. Then they would be of some use to society.

killed the American if he refused to buy them alcohol. But he was in error to buy alcohol for adolescents. Many adults do that thinking there is no harm in it. But there is a terrible price to pay if the alcohol causes the boys to become demon possessed as appears to have happened here. From the security film, it appears to be a deserted street, but the article says people passed by and did nothing. Maybe people in Israel don't have cell phones to call 911. In France, walking past a person who needs help makes the passersby guilty of a crime. The world is a cruel place and people who walk alone at night when they don't have to are foolish. The devils come out at night to prey on the unwary. I detest most children because they are so evil in most places because the parents do not teach the children the Torah and Tanakh or the Bible and demand obedience which is what children owe to parents. Parents who do not teach their children God's laws should not expect their souls to go to heaven when they die. They denied the faith in failing as parents and should be prosecuted along with they pervert children. I am sick of violent children. In Moses' day, disobedient children were put to death. That is what is needed now to stop the epidemic of thug and gangster and murderous children.

This is easy in an online publication.

You have been proven wrong. How about rethinking your bias against Israelis?

"The detectives have turned him into a killer" Actually,he turned himself into a killer,when he killed the guy. Typical arab thinking...never accept responsibilty for their actions.

The first paragraph states that they are Arabs. Had they been haredim it would have been plastered all over the article. But, unless the article has been updated, it says clearly they were Arabs, so why the attacks on the writer? Read the article through clearly. But I am surprised it doesn't say where the attack took place. That wuld have a bearing on the number of people passing by who ignored the victim.

... to be "lynched" means to be come dead by hanging. When someone hits you in the head with a plank it is called "boarding".

Truth be told, I wouldn't mind giving them a date with the hangman. And I am not the biggest fan of capital punishment .....

Where the hell do you get all this nonsense from? I've never seen any articles about even a crime as heinous as this one where the names of relatives and/or the addresses of the accused were given regardless of whether they were Jews or non-Jews. And now that it turns out you were wrong anyway, and it was Arabs who murdered that man, you should really feel stupid.

Murder is murder and terror is terror. But this was not a lynching. The entire Israeli press has misused this word for years. Check it up in a dictionary.

"The detectives have turned him into a killer,...The parents are staying up at night, crying. He's a good, sensitive," see, no matter what the arabs do, they will have an excuse even for the sin of killing. Sin is Sin period! So, the 60 yrs old US man has no relatives crying? why not report about the grief of the bereaved family, the children and the children? Faults lies in the parents for not teaching right value of life, allowing children to drink and smoke and wander late at night. Faults lies in the school for not teaching respect for other race, that the school even teach about Jews-hating. Faults lies in Abbas' government for not pocketing all the financial aids to store in their Europe banks instead of bringing up the living condition of the people. Faults lies in even most of the world Newspapers that refuse to report in headlines whevener a Jewish family lost a did, a youth, a father or a grandfather due to terrorism. the world news will only broadcast arabs mothers crying over boys accidentally killed by IDF. SAD!

"He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death... And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life... Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot." Exodus 21:12-24 G-D's law is perfect! Ynet, toda for posting.

i'm quite amazed that besides the misuse of the LYNCHING term, you have not found anything else to comment about. You'd probably be one of the passerby persons that would not bother to get involved or use your cell phone, hey ?

if the kids are arabs, and they are drinking vodka than 100% they are not religious! you should read the article again i guess. parents should be judged also. police should take all of those kids in the street, who are drinking, selling, or asking for money. it has started to be a common thing. shame on us

police in Jerusalem, and everywhere else should have acted long time ago. Its becoming a common thing to see kids in jerusalem and other places, asking for money, selling gums, cleaning windows or whatever, police should take all of those kids from the parents and judge the parents, its becoming a common problem. if the parents cant handle their kids the government should do that!

for other murderers. Hang the bastards.

This is a murder. Not a lynching..... sort out your english!

Alcohol is prohibited by Islam, but not by Christianity. The article did not specify whether these Arab youths are Moslem or Christian. Either way, it was a dreadful act and for teenagers to call a sixty-year old man "insolent" is completely beyond the Pale. Their acts are not a reflection upon Islam or Christianity, but it says a great deal about how they were raised.
