1. Idiot
Moshe ,   Jerusalem   (10.23.11)
Last week a Hero returned to Israel after being locked up for 5 years, this officer should be locked up.
2. Education.
Keren ,   IL-BR   (10.23.11)
Education has failed.The market's man has failed.We are more,much more than consumers,than money. Something is wrong at the core. If people don't want religion to be overwhelmingly taught in Israel in the sense of ritual,it should be overwhelmingly taught in the sense of Principles.It is a must. Consumism has failed. Wake up before more and more people sadly go down into the dirty drain.
3. Drugs
Larry Butler ,   kibbutz Israel   (10.23.11)
Well i hope that its a mistake ,but if not he should be given the harshes sentence that can be handed down !.
4. It happens all the time...
Mike S ,   Phoenix, USA   (10.23.11)
come see the borders with Mexico...
5. Why not?
Dovid ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.23.11)
Prime Ministers, Finance Ministers, other ministers, Knesset Members, Heads of Yeshivas, government rabbis and other "esteemed" rabbis- isn't that the motto in Israel, "Everybody does it." So why NOT officers in the IDF?
6. How To Stop This Criminal Enterprise
Fat Freddy's Cat ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.23.11)
Legalize the damn stuff and stop wasting taxpayers money and lives. The laws are exponentially worse than the drugs in the case of hash and marijuana and keeping it illegal merely enriches the criminal elements in society. With licensing and education, something that costs the taxpayers billions over year can be turned into a profit and drug usage can be brought to the surface where it can be dealt with openly. Furthermore, since the source of these drugs is almost invariably some element hostile to Israel, the money stays in the country and gets channeled back to the legal marketplace where it gets taxed when spent on goods and services, instead of going into the hands of Hizbollah and Hamas. Legalize it and stop this stupidity. It's only a plant. Why not make every plant that produces psychotropic effects illegal? Then we can defoliate 1/3 of all plant life on Earth.
7. Are we talking BeduinOfficer here? end
MoreInfo ,   Jerusalem Israel   (10.23.11)
8. #6
Spencer ,   Israel   (10.23.11)
The way to stop the drug business is to show no mercy to the dealers and users. Catch them and gaol them for a long, long time.
9. Why not legalize drugs?
Rand ,   Toronto Canada   (10.23.11)
Because that would eliminate the huge profits for the higher ranking officials, who need to parade a person like this in front of the gullible public as the fall guy. Its sad that in spite of all the high ideals set out for it, Israel has become just another corrupt socialist country, like Canada, the US or EU.

11. Drugs ruin lives, lock these people away for years.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (10.23.11)
12. To #8 Yeah, that's been really successful
Fat Freddy's Cat ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (10.23.11)
We've had 80 years of prohibition and the fact that some drugs were re-legalized while other weren't was based solely on politics and not ethics, morality, medical evidence, economics nor common sense. You hurt your back and they throw addictive opiates at you, for which your local big pharma makes a huge profit and the numbers of legal opiate addicts climbs every year, yet tickle your cannbinoid receptor and some mindless dickhead wants you to rot with father rapers and mother stabbers for years and years, sucking up more taxpayers money. 1% us the US population is in the criminal justice system (appropriately named - it is criminal), 3/4 of them for personal drug use. The largest prisoner population in the world. If states of mind were illegal, your's would be a federal offence.
