I wonder why he didn't stop, but hopefully he can recover from this seemingly terrible mistake. God bless him with a speedy recovery.

you dash quickly at the checkpoint.

as I casually stroll on the "Tel Aviv" seaside promenade.

Respect the law of the land,and no one will harm you,but do somthing naughty against the Jewish state,then you are in trouble.

I cant walk down any beach in Gaza.....

They only problem here is the space occupied by this "person"on the hospital. If he didnt see the checkpoint, better for society that this person is not driving again, and If he saw it and as a "MACHO" primitive Arab tried to go with his tunned ugly car to kill the soldiers, well done IDF soldiers who risk their life from these "human"garbage that pollute the world.

Salma, love the way you deliberately stir all the time it’s like you invite confrontation and run away. This leads me to believe you are educated and have an IQ. However wish you knew how to use this gift constructively, and instead of enjoying the way you spark anger in people on talkbacks, find another medium that solves something or brings us closer to peace. We are all tired of the Middle East crises and all want peace and quiet- think about it…

watch yourself, no one else will.They could turn to stone.

Just imagine an Israeli Jew driving inside Nablus...your nice fellow Palestinians would kill him even if he drives slowly...So please stop with your stupid meaningless talkbacks Salma from Jordan. And anyway why you post on ynet and drive to tel aviv, if you are so worried...The Truth is that you should thank Allah every day that you are allowed to live next to a developed country like israel...and instead of writing nonsense...stay in your refugee camp like you did for the last 60 years...it's all you are able to do and you know it!

Even if he did not see the road block, how fast should he have been going? Those roads are not highways, so maybe 70kmh.

The worst encounter you could be exposed to on the Tel Aviv seaside promenade: a lynching party of drunken Arabs from Jaljulia, like Arie Karp's murderers.

This is Exhibit A in why you must always, always be alert when driving. Driving a car is piloting a 1500 kilo hunk of metal at superhuman speeds. Never take it lightly.

I doubt he was trying to "break through the roadblock" or cause anybody harm. I hope they truly invistigate as this could very well be another unjustified shooting by trigger happy soldiers.

road signs in Israel are all in arabic, English as well as Hebrew.

LOOK PEOPLE, when the soldiers opened fire they did not know that the driver was even an Australian, Singaporean or Arab!!! All they understood was their lives were in danger---given all the terrorism Israel has experienced. I would shoot first and ask questions later if I felt my life was in danger, no matter who was driving the car!!!

If the license plates were yellow they would not have shot because they would be in deep do do if they shot a Israeli Jew, but since the licence plates were white, the IDF has a green light to blast away with little concern of any consequences. The official IDF investigation will say that they feared for their lives as they did when they killed the old Palestinian man asleep in his bed..

homicide bombers Stoll, don't run Are you telling us that you're as big as a speeding car ?

Who said the license plates were white, other than yourself ? He was an Israeli Arab, as such he was entitled to have the customary yellow plates with black lettering When Arabs are from the territories, they have white plates with small paste on's that tell which area he's from

The sign is RED HAND upraised telling the driver to halt Hebrew isn't required, even the ignorant likes of you would know what the sign means

Nah, baby girl. You're not allowed into Israel, and you know it. Why deceive all the posters here? We know exactly who you are and where you live. Tel Aviv? Right. Dream on. Enjoy your casual strolls down the main drag in Ramallah. Oh, what fun! I do mean it when I say "enjoy." Those strolls are coming to an end, too. I'm sure there are wonderful strolls in which to engage in beautiful, downtown Amman. Get your hijab dry-cleaned, though, sweetie, okay? You wouldn't want to be arrested and flogged.

So when the United States shoots to kill at coyotes crossing the Mexican border with hundreds of illegal aliens, what color license plate are they shooting at? Yeah. That's what I thought. Get a grip, get an education, get a life. Uber-emphasis on "education."

Well, if he's that lousy a driver, he doesn't deserve a driver's license, anyway. Who in their right mind doesn't see a roadblock or soldiers signaling a halt? Was this Arab driver drunk?

If he was speeding something was wrong.
