Does Israel not have laws to end Machson Watch's despicable and dangerous activities? Machsom Watch pressures the I.D.F. to be lenient to potential terrorists. Israelis pay with their lives and wellbeing for such evil. Let us vigourously prosecute this evil organization. If we don't have the laws to do so, let's draft some quickly.

like when they carry pipe bombs and knives, target checkpoints with guns, ram through checkpoints when demanded to halt, act suspiciously, etc. When do checkpoints run smoothly? When "Palestinians" do what they're told and don't commit terrorist acts. Try acting suspicious at any world airport and see how slow the line moves then. It seems that the main purpose of Machsom Watch is to interfere with operations, which in turn, causes huge delays at checkpoints. They certainly had no comment on terrorist actions at checkpoints by Pallys which make them justified, and of course, they know if an attack happened, the IDF would protect these self-righteous bimbos.

checkpoints are now everywhere all over the world because of your Arab terror. As they day you made your bed you lie in it or You made this mess you pay for it .

Actually, no it isn't. It can be closed at anytime based on logisitcal considerations, and that does in turn affect the security of both soldiers manning it and people passing through it. After all, if a terrorist attacks the checkpoint, innocent civilians there are affect too, and for sure Machsom Watch demands Israel maintain security for those passing through, right? The fact that Machsom Watch would refuse to stand 100 feet away is a clear indication of their intentions to obstruct operations and cause fake delays. Their actions are considered a security risk and the IDF should file a report with the AG on this matter. Dafna admitted the soldiers were replaced at this checkpoint which means they might not have had experience with this particular group, or any NGO, and as an act of precaution, asked Machsom Watch to stand away. I know police do this all the time during incidents like traffic stops and arrests. If you chose to disobey them, they don't walk away...they beat you up and arrest you as well. Dafna should consider herself lucky.

Dont these stupid bored women have anything better to do with their time than to bother the IDF?

Why should we really care what this "activists" Think? Whom did they complain to? If they don't trust the army, if they think that we are monsters who enjoy hurting arabs, they should emigrate instead of bothering our kids who are risking their life to defend people like this ladies!

The IDF is a true blessing! and the ladies of the Machsom Watch well ok they are a blessing too! Each one has a job to do and Each one should do it well!

about the explosive laden vehicles that their brothers are prone to use in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan There's no reason for Isrel to take any chances by allowing an unchecked vehicle to pass through Let us not forget, they use ambulances to transport fighters & arms, since they sink that low, extreme caution must be exerted

When I drive to Jerusalem on road 443, I have a terrible delay and wait long times. When I go to a shopping mall, I have to wait and undergo a humiliating search in my bags. Why doesn't Machsom Watch condemn the people responsible for this? Or am I less a human because I am Jewish?

What can be said, other than none of these people ever concerned themselves with "suicide bomber" watch. This fifth column claims that they are involved with "human rights", yet they have never taken issue with Palestinian war crimes that led to the checkpoints being set up in the first place. There is nothing more disgusting that these Animal Farm characters who say that all people are created equal, but Palestinians are more equal than others and have the "right to resist the occupation" by killing Israeli civilians. They really should all move to Ramallah or Gaza City to enjoy the human rights there.

In any country this would be viewed as very serious treacherous actions, bordering on sedition against the State. Try going against the PA authorities and you get punnished, so why does Machsom Watch try to help such non-deomocratic criminals like the PA.

Pal-Arab reporter Mamdouh Hamamreh made a seemingly critical remark against PA chief Abbas, and the reporter was held for over 50 days in Palestinian lockup. The PA does this inhumane undemocratic actions to Hamas leaning reporters and Hamas in return punnishes PA reporters and supporters. Did Machsom Watch condemn the PA and Hamas regarding their illegal, undemocratic leaders and their tyrannical actions ? Is this PA and Hamas variety of criminals worth protection from Machsom Watch ?

watch is worried that pali terror bombs might go off prematurely and injure the other palis in line. This would be a waste of a good bomb that could have killed Israelis instead. The could also worry about a terrorist cutting him or herself with their concealed knife. Or holding a loaded pistol or ax for hours could lead to terrorist fatigue. These women remind me of the jews that sold their fellows out to the nazis or the communists.This is a sickness to identify and worry about your enemy. Years ago we read about women bringing cold or hot drinks and food to our troops. Now we read about women feeding our troops to the enemy.Who funds these women and can they be banned from bothering our soldiers?

Let the creatures in Machsom Watch give a personal guarantee for each person that want the IDF to allow through Itf that person or person is involved in a crime or act of terror, the guarnator from Machsom must do equal jail time with the criminal plus they must suffer all the penalties that are normally given in this situation Let's call it "Tachat al haShilchan"

Machsom watch is funded by private donors, the New Israel Fund & the EU.
