61. #23 Rachel -- Thank you
Ken ,   Odesta, CA   (05.24.11)
I totally got where you were coming from. It's entirely possible to recognize the error of one party even though the response of the other party was unacceptable. Most people, like yourself, have some sense of empathy and respect for the dignity of others. But, there are people out there who just do not and their tongue often causes them problems. That being said, what happened to here was terrible and wrong and I hope she recovers fully from her injuries.
62. After all that
Li ,   USA   (05.24.11)
does he have a bigger dick now?
63. to 53
S ,   USA   (05.24.11)
I saw a lot of funny jokes as talkback, but your comment was the brightest, and truest.
64. It's called assault Rachel #23
John ,   Alaska   (05.24.11)
It is never right to respond to hurtful words with violence. That's why it's illegal. Civilized people respond to words with either words or by just walking away. What the man in your anecdote did was the right thing What the assailant in this article did was assault.
65. Any man who beats a woman has a peanut size willy
Talula ,   Israel   (05.24.11)
This 'man's' actions pretty much show that he has an issue with his small shlong - makes him feel more like a man to beat a woman. I have to say though, it's pretty tacky of her to talk about such issues in front of his mates. But even so, she didn't deserve to end up in Meir!
66. Supreme court case!
Active Organ ,   Any City - World   (05.24.11)
For sure....!
67. So what else is new?
Josh   (05.24.11)
Small minded, immature, insecure, overly egotistical. shallow, needing approval of the group, merciless, un-chivalrous, careless, negligent, weak, indefensible actions, lack of valor, victimizing, criminal behavior? Unfortunately this is far from an isolated behavior. Don't worry, his good family name will keep him from being accountable unless he is a foreigner (nonnative) or a convert.
68. We need to see the offending penis
Talula ,   Israel   (05.24.11)
Let the people decide.
69. Ridiculising in public,is like..
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (05.24.11)
inflicting to somebody a little death. That is what is tought in the Tora.
70. I think I understand
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.24.11)
... why we had to invent Freud.
71. #69 Propaganda to silence ridicule of leaders
Josh   (05.24.11)
You are saying the victim committed murder?! It is not Torah and it is not good and right in G-d's eyes - and we all know it. No such words were ever uttered by G-d, Moses or any so called prophet. That means G-d never said that and that means someone made up things. The lashon hara being based on the report of the spies is simply no more than missing the point of the whole story. The spies did not murder anyone, the people disobeying instructions of Moses and G-d is the point. That "murder" of speaking against someone is nothing more or less than what you will find in most facist cults and certainly is not what G-d would want. Elevating terrible speech to equal murder is the type of thing that allows loser to beat on women under false justifications. It is what allows dictators to kill detractors. Anyone acting on such assumptions no more acceptable than that what one can learn from the famous Milman experiments. He is not justified and she didn't murder anyone. She is the VICTIM!

Little.
74. And the experts say????
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (05.24.11)
I was told by Mr. Tonto Goldstein, whose friends and family called him "Bubba," that, according to the International Association of Nymphomaniacs, the most generously endowed men are American Indians, the best lovers are Jews, and Southern Rednecks have the most stamina. For any opinions to the contrary, please contact Mr. Goldstein or the AAof N.

News is news whatever it is.

(05.24.11)
Other things have to come in large lunchboxes
77. 71 I don t excuse violence...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (05.24.11)
far from that.I am saying that,by communicating respectfully,we could avoid lots of violence.
78. To #68
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (05.24.11)
Just make sure to label the exhibit prominently, so I won't mistake it for an exotic mushroom. After all, I am a widow, 70 years old and though my memory is excellent, my eyesight is not what it used to be, hahahaha
79. small but mean
Bless Israel ,   USA   (05.24.11)
she should have held up her little finger. that says it all.
80. wow
Arafat ,   USA   (05.24.11)
Must be true for a reaction like that. Learn to accept it dude. Just find an equally small girl...good luck in Israel ha!
81. To bad she couldn't beat him off
Xz ,   PA USA   (05.24.11)
82. VERY ANGRY INCH! ^_^
DisturbingNews ,   San Jose, CA   (05.24.11)
I've linked your article to my Facebook page... Thanks!
83. #78 Ahhh bless you!! don't worry, I'll take a picture
Talula ,   Israel   (05.25.11)
if we ever get to see it, I'll have it enlarged 2,0000 times - put on a poster, then I'll send it by air mail :)
84. To #16 Beauchard
John ,   Alaska   (05.25.11)
It's not snide to recognize that there is a culture in the Middle East, and in Europe (cough-Muslims-cough) that is known for beating women, murdering them in "honor" killings, raping them if they are caught outdoors without a male handler, and stoning them for "adultery".
85. Penis beatdown
Gill Avila ,   Morgan Hill CA USA   (05.26.11)
She asked him to show her his ticket and instead he showed her his stub.
86. Maybe the moil chopped off too much?
Allen ,   Fayetteville, TN USA   (06.05.11)
The word is spelled "mohel", but I agree with the sentiment.
87. He should have not gone so far.
Dan S. ,   New York City, US   (08.13.11)
This man went too far. There is a way to teach someone a lesson for disrespecting you without putting her in the hospital. She was only wrong for doing it in front of his friends. If the two were alone then he probably would not have touched her. what can I say like Little Jimmy she got GOT!
88. I don't condone what this guy did. However women shouldn't m
Quinn   (08.29.11)
I don't condone what this guy did. However women shouldn't make fun of a guys penis size especially in public or in front of friends. Its not right to humiliate someone or sexually harass them. This women must have been quite shallow and cruel to do something like this.This whole situation is tragic and I feel sorry for these people.
89. In search of the perfect lemon
Shuli Rand ,   Haifa, Israel   (03.06.13)
Oi Vae!
