1. Wait a minute
Rachel ,   US   (08.11.11)
I thought he was innocent.
2. cleared by courts?
Nathan ,   Montreal, Canada   (08.11.11)
If this article was cleared by courts for publication, on appeal, that implies the government did not want it published. Do you readers really need the story so badly? If there's even a chance that publishing it would harm Israel's security interests, YOU should have been responsible enough to not publish it.
3. Really just a sweet man, mislead by those evil Islamist men.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (08.11.11)
At least that's probably what his lawyers will try and convince us of.
4. Top Hamas engineer?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.11.11)
Needing to get formulas from the internet? I don't think so.
5. Top Hamas Leader
Frances Greenfield ,   Canada   (08.11.11)
Traitor. Hope he has lots of protection. Organizations such as Hamas or others fighting against Israel can only be traitorous in the eyes of Hamas
6. I believe it was Ukraine who helped bring him back, THANKS
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (08.11.11)
to them and THANKS to the investigators, may this terrorist be locked away from ever helping hamass again.
7. He's the tip of the large iceberg
Marcel ,   Florida   (08.11.11)
What a different place Israel would be if Ehud Barak was behind bars and Hezbollah and Hamas were soundly defeated. If Hamas wants to upgrade their training all they had to do was call U.S. Army Major General Keith Dayton who has done such a good job training Fatah to kill Jews more effectively with the blessing of the Israeli government.
8. Its Ramadan and he still lies
A ,   Belgium   (08.11.11)
"I greatly regret my affiliation with the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas Movement, my work to develop the missile range, my part in establishing Hamas' military academy, and all the information I handed over to Hamas that can threaten the security of Israel and its citizens," What a huge pile of cow dung. The only thing he's sorry about is that he got caught.
9. Small Potato
Joshua ,   USA   (08.11.11)
I got a good laugh reading this article. This "Top Hamas" clown may be one of few in that organization who is educated enough to surf the Internet for "Formulas" that can help amature rocket scientists but it is beyond me what the court found from his interogation that required a gag order. This article is nothing more than pure bullshit.
10. MOSQUES AND AMBULANCES
BENJABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.11.11)
What the hell, anything they can use to hide their nefarious activities,while we're at it, let's not forget the hospitals & schools, real great for concealment of fighters and supplies
11. #4 Sarah B.
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.11.11)
Why bake a cake from scratch when you can buy it frozen and then reheat to eat ? The Net is a great resource, most government scrounge for information by using it
12. Didnt his wife swear he had nothing to do with Hamas?
Rebecca ,   Modiin   (08.11.11)
13. who is he?
David ,   America   (08.11.11)
Another hamass sissy.
14. Time to respond
GWN ,   Canada   (08.11.11)
Israel should harshly respond to all attacks, not just empty buildings.
15. #12 Rebecca - he did swear !
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.11.11)
However, he had his fingers crossed
16. Hiding missiles in mosques
Uriel ,   Montrose USA   (08.11.11)
Face facts, friends. THE ONLY WAY Israel will put an end to all Hamas nefarious activities is to invade, re-take and annex Gaza. Period! It is time to undo Sharon's folly.
17. and i bet he "provided" u with all that info voluntarily
Marwan ,   Tel Aviv, Palestine   (08.11.11)
makes u wonder who the real terrorists are :)
18. To: Ben at No. 11
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.11.11)
Oh, I agree that the internet is a great source of information. I just question whether someone needing to retrieve a pretty basic formula from the internet is a great engineer.
19. @#17 :Marwan , Tel Aviv, Israel
Galutia ,   Selah   (08.11.11)
I am sure the israeli ineragators were more nicer than if the table were reversed and a israeli was being intaragated by hamas
20. #17 Marwan-this is not the important part
Yonatan ,   Modiin, Israel   (08.11.11)
He did what he did. Stop trying to minimize it by adding questions as to the way we got the data. You don't fight fair - don't expect us to.
21. What is his fate?
Cameron ,   USA   (08.11.11)
22. To: Joshua at No. 9
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.11.11)
You don't have to sell it to me -- but I would purely love to see you sell your tripe to the good people of Sderot. Fool.
23. #8 Ilana Curiel is not Muslim to not lie in Ramadan
observer ,   Egypt   (08.11.11)
24. Sure....
LebanonPride ,   Canada   (08.11.11)
He has denied being affiliated with Hamas before, now all of a sudden he's one of their top guys? If he was so important, surely he could of been used as a major bargaining piece to free Gilad Shalit. I mean, if he truly is Hamas' top engineer they would do something to get him back. So, either he's lieing or Israel is incompetent and once again left Gilad Shalit on his own. Which is it?
25. Just Some Old Fashioned Eye for an Eye
Noah Lev ,   HollywoodUSA   (08.11.11)
Of course this terrorist has repented his sins, and been contrite. He must be getting advice from Jewish attorneys, quick to defend those wo want us dead. I mean, look at OJs attorneys. Nothing new here. Going to the Net, okay, so what? What is the signficance I ask? In the USA, punishment for aiding, being involved with, financing, a terrorist organization has stiff penalties. Most convicted are serving life sentences. There are no deals in the future. Recent pictures from Syria, show their artillery blasting mosques..thought havens for protestors. Talk about lack of respect. English police have arrested over 1,000 to date..with courts et up to hear and try cases. Pictures of rioters are being distributed to the pop. When did Israel arrest 1,000 last time. Israel reminds me of the Chinese death of 1,000 cuts...after awhile, they become intolerable. Or a water torture, same effect. He thought he would not be caught...and didn't really want to join Hamas? Oh come on,.His actions tell the truth. Oh btw, to Israel: hows about capital punishment for crimes of nationalsim, genocide, (intended or actual), against himanity, against the Jewish people? Empty your prisons ( Hamas says 7000 incarcerated) by lethal injection, hanging, or just plain old fashioned, well you know.
26. To: No. 24
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.11.11)
You are a complete idiot. Do you really think that Gilad Shalit will ever be freed? He's Hamas' ace in the hole; they will never, ever let him go. You people are animals; pure and simple.
27. ABU SISI SANG LIKE A CANARY
LAWRENCE ,   Zefat (Safed)   (08.11.11)
28. To: No. 17
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.11.11)
Ten thousand missiles fired into Israel by Hamas and the other terrorist rabble in Gaza, and you are asking who the real terrorists are? You have some fricken' nerve. If you are incapable of being loyal to the State of Israel, you should move to Gaza or Ramallah. We don't need you; we don't want you.
29. ??? ,...
split ,   US   (08.11.11)
Is that the dude that vanished in Ukraine ? Of course Mossad got nothin to do wit it - I wanna see his fingernails and knee caps ,...
30. why let the public know he cooperated? Now his family will
Rivkah   (08.11.11)
be killed by Hamas.
