1. ENOUGH TALK!!
Eli F. ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (04.17.11)
Its time to implement the death sentence for terrorists, ENOUGH already!! As it is, these two, will get a nice cell, 3 meals a day, family visits, an education, cell phones...And waiting to be freed in a prisoner exchange...DISGUSTING..and this, while Gilad Shalit rots in a cell...NO MORE!!!!
2. Time to change the law to allow capital punishment
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & NY   (04.17.11)
It is time that Israel instituted a death penalty clause for terrorist activities, murdering the President or PM, and treason. There is no just reason to let individuals convicted of these crimes live and many reasons to let them die (like Hamas using them as leverage).
3. OK Mr. Bibi.....
Avigayil ,   Rehovot, Israel   (04.17.11)
....let's see you put your money where your mouth is.
4. #1 Eli , will that also include Yigal Amir ?
Observer   (04.17.11)
5. Bibi,you would have to cut of your own hands,
chaim.s ,   54th st. brooklyn ny   (04.17.11)
Yes,it is these two murderous animals who did the actual killings, but it is you Bibi,who is fully responsible for these murders,because it is you,who under the orders of your master,Hussein Obama,dismantled hundreds of security checkpoints,that enabled the palestinian murderrers to roam freely,and make their way into Itamar.
6. Why is Netanyahu using Islamic terminology?
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (04.17.11)
Jews do not "cut off hands" as punishment. Never have. That horrific punishment, along with cutting off feet from the opposite side, is however found in the Qur'an, and is even today carried out in Saudi Arabia. No, the phrase Bibi should have used is "and we shall remove this evil from our midst". It's time Israel reimposed capital punishment, the EU and its moral presumption be damned.
7. Justice?
max ,   washington dc   (04.17.11)
Although we are commanded "Not to Kill" some crimes justify the Death Penalty. Israeli law should not permit the slaughter of the Fogel Family by these palestinian youth, who show no remorse, to a life in prison with all the comforts of home and someday be traded for the release of a kidnapped Israeli.
8. To # 3
Ehud ,   Jerusalem   (04.17.11)
You should say "put the money" where your mouth is. Everybody knows that Bibi never uses his own money, never did.
9. # 3 Avigail
Rachel ,   US   (04.17.11)
Surely you know Bibi is just an actor. This spineless coward is too afraid to build homes for Jews in Jerusalem.
10. Sounds like a real head of the gang and not like a real PM!
Salma ,   Palestine   (04.17.11)
Fogel family somehow lucky, unlike the Palestinian bereaved families who know very well who is the killer, without being able to "cut his hands", because he is above the law according to the "civilized world "!
11. Netanyahu is utterly deranged
Jeff, Ex-Marine ,   San Diego, US   (04.17.11)
If anyone thinks he cares about the victim's families, think again. He is totally consumed by his hatred of Palestinians and this prevents him from thinking properly. "We will not tolerate the slaughtering of our people" And he expects the Palestinians to do just that?
12. Haha I see Netanyahu is a fan of sharia law
Masrawy ,   Egypt   (04.17.11)
How ironic
13. Sounds like a real head of the gang and not like a real PM!
Salma ,   Palestine   (04.17.11)
14. slaughter of Israelis
RC ,   USA   (04.17.11)
Cut off their hands, sounds like a lot of hot air. The truth is the perpetrators of the heinous Fogel family murders will be sent to prison where they will be well fed, given education if they desire, and mingle with other prisoners where they will spread their hateful virus. I’m very glad they were caught though. In the mean time keep giving concessions and try to make peace with the fakestinians which do not even recognize the Jewish State and have publicly stated in their charter they desire all the land. Israel has chosen to follow the Sanhedrin and have turned your backs on YAHUWAH, you have been taught by deceiving rabbis to not even utter your creator’s name (Jeremiah chapter 23 verses 26-27), when the scriptures tell us; (Psalms 34:3 Oh, make יהוה great with me, And let us exalt His Name together). Be proud of the name that was put on you and Yahrushalayim (Zion) which is set apart; divide it at your own risk.
15. Salma go colonise EU and Canada
(04.17.11)
16. Tolerance is like drug addiction
Gideon Reader ,   USA   (04.17.11)
After continued use a drug is tolerated and more is needed for the same effect. The violence against Jews; particularly those who reside in jedea-Samaria is exactly like those abused drugs. Bibi claims that it(violence) will not be tolerated and commends the *after event* investigative/enforcement authorities. Sure. Catching the terrorists AFTER the event is a goody. Better yet would be Israel enacting such an attitude and reflexive response to such happenings, as to send a freezingly cold jolt thru anyone who even considers performing an act even a thousand times less horrible that the Itimar-Fogel terrorist act. Hard to do? Dont you believe that for a moment. The so called Palestinians are no Commanche or Apaches, and can be quelled IF the political echelon of Israel ever developed the requsite testostorone levels for implementing procedures for the job they already occupy.
17. think bibi feels any guilt for putting fogels there
abdalla   (04.17.11)
in illegal settlments in harms way
18. pm.: we won"t tolerate slaughter.....
realist ,   world/planet earth   (04.17.11)
the palestinians can say: we won"t tolerate slaughter of palestinians. it is not up to benjamin netanyahu to speak out the verdict. this is up to the independant judge.
19. Itamar murderers
reuben ,   Israel   (04.17.11)
Cuttung off their hands is not enough- maybe BB should ask Leberman what to do
20. An unfortunate fraze
David M.   (04.17.11)
I don't know what exactly Bibi said in Hebrew, but saying that their hands will be cut off can be misunderstood as a literal and not a symbolic threat. We all know that hands are actually cut off for stealing under Sharia law in Saudi Arabia and other fundamentalist Muslim countries.
21. Narrow minded Police Chief
Ragusa   (04.17.11)
New chief of police, Netanyahu stressed that Israel "will not tolerate the slaughtering of our people – not in Gaza, not in Judea and Samaria, and not anywhere else." Hopefully he meant that he will not tolerate slaughtering of PEOPLE, not just selected ones! That said, congratulations to his officers for catching the murderers, I hope they receive a punishment apropriate to their hedious crime, measured out by the justice system, not by the "hand-cutting" PM. Rather a primitive statement for a leader of a nation.
22. Demagogue!
Shalom ,   U.S.A.   (04.17.11)
Shame on you Netanyahu! Talking tough to the media, behind closed doors planning to give away Judea and Samaria to terrorist who murdered this young man! You'll be repudiated by the jewish people!
23. Expand Itamar, make it a city and build
Baruch ,   US   (04.17.11)
24. "We won't tolerate slaughter of Israelis"
Robert ,   Israel   (04.17.11)
Mr. Netanyahu, we israelis DEMAND FACTS from you and no mere future promises. "Won't tolerate" means "future actions" in the English language and we expect you to talk in the present tense. YOU assumed a compromise towards us all when you became P.M. We have already been waiting for a long time. Fulfill your promises!
25. BS from a coward who kneels and shakes before obumma.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (04.17.11)
26. BIBI AHAVA DO IT!!!
Ester   (04.17.11)
27. #10 Fogel family was not "lucky"
Cynthia ,   USA   (04.17.11)
You're afraid murders of innocent Israelis will interfere with Palestinian statehood. I say absolutely!!! Each incident serves as a reminder that Palestinians only communicate through terror and providing them a state will not solve the ME conflict, only make it worse. You obviously understood Netanyahu's message.
28. R they really going to amputate their hands if found guilty?
Potash Katiftof ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (04.17.11)
Are they really going to amputate body parts or is netanyahu just using some good ol' fashion ahmadenajad rhetoric?
29. Look who is talking....
Marco ,   Spain   (04.17.11)
The king of double billing... What a shameless crook.
30. #29 Gallego Marco
Jorge ,   Israel/USA/Argentina   (04.17.11)
Your leaders are not better. At least he does more that Zapatero
