9. Stabbing of American Tourist
Cal Richmond Jr. ,   Portage, Mi USA   (12.18.10)
I am glad she was able to get medical help and will be ok. Tourism should and will continue. I pray the police find who did this and bring them to justice
10. Even I realize these actions don't contribute to peace
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.18.10)
11. by now: approached by youth, stabbed, then bound(?), escape?
eporue ,   europe   (12.18.10)
12. a Jewish modesty squad has just taken law in its hand
observer   (12.18.10)
A 31-year-old Jerusalem woman was cruelly beaten and threatened with death by members of the 'modesty squad' who took it upon themselves to interrogate her about her relationships with men. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3582713,00.html that is charm of Israel which attracts American Jewish women to probe that chasteness experience.
13. did she know that half the Jews in Israel are Arab Mizrahi?
observer   (12.18.10)
14. Cameron, you thinks?
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (12.18.10)
Duh. Cameron it's very easy to research this one from wikipedia: In U.S. cities with populations greater than 250,000, the mean homicide rate for 2005 was 12.1 per 100,000 In Israel the national homicide rate in 2009 was 1.8 killed per 100,000. Look for yourself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate This, of course, has absolutely zero correlation with tourism and immigration to America. Ditto for Israel.
15. So, Salma. Why don't you talk to your fellow Palestinians?
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (12.18.10)
Strange, Salma, but there are a lot of Palestinians who think that this is "resistance to the occupation". If you Palestinians want peace, why do these attacks continue? Why shoot up cars of Israeli civilians and kill pregnant women? All the signs are that some Palestinians want peace, but most of you vote for Hamas or Fatah and both of them support armed attacks against civilians.
16. Johnny #3 - Remember 1938?
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.18.10)
I'm very much afraid that you are wrong. Sadly, today is very much like 1938... Remember Neville Chamberlain? What is the difference between those days and the political apologists of our times? Just yesterday the American envoy to N. Korea told the S. Koreans to slow down because N. Korea is ready to attack. Is that the answer?
17. Arabs kill Jews get the headlines, Arabs killed, two lines
Israeli   (12.18.10)
The naming of the background of the stabbers/kidnappers as Arab is incredibly irresponsible journalism. If it was motivated by nationalism, then it makes some sense. But if criminal, it is just fanning inter-ethnic hatred. Also the mentioning in two lines an Arab getting killed at the bottom (by a Jew?) seems like Ynet does not care about Arab lives. Bad journalism.
18. loylaty oath
marcel   (12.18.10)
Liberman is dead right. Execute an oath of loyalty. if israeli arabs don't swear one, then citizenship removed and expelled from the country, fast. Charter boats and ship them to jordan, cypres or tunisia. This should be enacted in the next 60 days. of the 1.25 million arabs, I estimate at least 300,000 would be kicked out including big mouth zoabi and sheik raed.
19. still anything possible...
eporue ,   europe   (12.18.10)
"she will not require surgery, though her doctors say she is still not talking." (ynet) there have been cases, where the murderer inflicted injuries to themselves, blaming a third party of attack later. or - that another person was secretly involved, injuring their friend only slightly (not life threatening), while murdering the other, and then things were blamed by the moderate injured onto third-party-attack (e.g. sect etc etc)... ...not good, that she doesnt talk. every second (would) count, to find her friend. was the womens hands bound in front or in back ?
20. Salma #10: Peace
Steve   (12.18.10)
How do you define peace? What would your vision of peace (in the land) look like?
21. Carmalla@hotmail.com
Carmalla ,   GBritan   (12.18.10)
More cards top play with, too bad for the Yanks though but I'm sure all Arabs are truly sorry. These women should be extremely grateful to the skilled hands of the Israelies for if they went to no mad land they surly would of perished and never found again
22. @#12: What the HELL does your two-yr-old article have to do
SETTHERECORDSTRAIGHT   (12.18.10)
with this article?
23. observer: what's your point? that the woman wasn't stabbed
by Arabs?   (12.18.10)
24. No 17 Israeli
Alf Red ,   Londonistan-Israel   (12.18.10)
You are just THAT kind of politically correct MORON, thanks to whom we can all get murdered by our "piece partners". Get some brain, dude!
25. woman says
debbie ,   israel   (12.18.10)
TO CAMERON, The homicide rate in the U.S. is much much higher than in Israel, and I don't see that this has affected tourism or immigration to the U.S. Why should it do so here?
26. Woman "says" stabbed by Arabs
Hezy ,   Jerusalem   (12.18.10)
obviously she's lying
27. #12 - how about leaving in the context next time
William ,   Israel   (12.18.10)
Like, this women was specifically targeted because she left the Ultra-Orthodox way of life. A "modesty squad" isn't a common thing in Israel nor in Jerusalem. It was a guise for an attack on someone who dared to exit their way of life. As I recall, the penalty for doing the same in the Muslim world is death, so even this isolated incident still makes Jews more humane than Muslims.
28. #13 Beit Shemesh has the qualification of Haredi & Arab Jews
observer   (12.18.10)
In 1952, Jews from Iran, Iraq and Morocco settled in Beit Shemesh (Arab village of Beit Natif) which now has a large Haredi sector.
29. so what
james ,   San Diego   (12.18.10)
who cares, people die everyday in Africa so what if two or 2000 people die in Israeli its not their land and thats what they get DEATH
30. We don't know who did it...
Alexander ,   NJ USA/Israel   (12.18.10)
She can claim whatever she wants, but until the cops catch them we won't know for sure. I just hope the criminals will be brought to justice and I wish this woman a speedy recovery.
