1. Well ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.15.12)
we have always known them to be violent. Their history suggests nothing else. Sixty-seven percent. That's a pretty significant number. Do we REALLY need them in our midst?
2. not shocking
David ,   Haifa, Israel   (01.15.12)
3. the real victims
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (01.15.12)
The real victims are Israeli Arabs who want to live a normal life as Israeli citizens. The government and police have abandoned them to the mercies of organized crime and the Fatah terror group. Apparently, the government and police have decided to give up sovereignty by abandoning the good people.
4. Is ynet really surprised by those figures?????
Trumpeldor   (01.15.12)
5. They & their Islooom death cult sponsors imoral behaviour,
Moshe ,   Usa   (01.15.12)
so it is better that they live in some other country far away from Israel. And they are a bad influence on the children of Israel. I wouldn't let one in my house & I would not allow them to associate with my children. This and not the economy is the real issue Jews have in Israel.
6. War on drugs didn´t work
Ivan ,   Haifa   (01.15.12)
it´s helps drug´s dealers aand traffickers, you must legalize!
7. #1
(01.15.12)
As much as we need you in our midst
8. #1
les ,   canada   (01.15.12)
dear sarah.... N O !!!
9. #5
Debbie ,   Israel   (01.15.12)
You turn my stomach - The only thing that made me happy about what you wrote - is you live in the USA.
10. In Sweden last year 100% of rapes
shaun green ,   pasadena usa   (01.15.12)
were committed by foreigners. None of them European foreigners (unless you count Julian Assange) Most were Somali or Pakistani.
11. 20% population and 67% murders? wow.
american   (01.15.12)
12. Now we know its arabs who are threatening to kill Tibi
zionist forever   (01.15.12)
If 67% of murders are carried out by arabs then its probably an arab who is sending Tibi death threats on his Facebook. Obviously he doesn't hate Israel enough than he already does.
13. To: No. 7
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.15.12)
I have never murdered anyone. I have never sent a suicide bomber to board a crowded bus or to enter a crowded restaurant or night club. I have never slit the throats of a sleeping family. That's just the tip of the iceberg. You need to shut up.
14. Same everywhere: Europe, America, Asia...
Tony ,   Manchester, UK   (01.15.12)
Arabs tend to be over-represented in crimes, and under-represented in Nobel Prizes... The curse of Agar...
15. 13 Sarah: "USA / Israel" is not a location
Jon ,   Israel   (01.15.12)
Clearly an armchair cheerleader, stay put in Brooklyn.
16. #11 More like 35% of males under 30 years old
jl ,   US   (01.15.12)
A more relevant statistic since in any population on Earth young males are responsible for most of the violent crime. But 35% of the population and 67% of the murder cases is still rather exceptional. It will be interesting to see the numbers again in a decade when Arabs, illegal Palestinians and Muslim African immigrants and their children are 45% of the population under 30 years old.
17. crime rates in Arab sector
Anna ,   Lod, Israel   (01.15.12)
Wouldn't this be a good subject for our Arab MK's to deal with, if they really want to be constructive. Instead for sure they will blame it on the Jewish oppression. This problem can only be solve within the Arab-Israeli community itself. The police will not succeed, their interference will only lead to violence.
18. # 11 wow
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (01.15.12)
in the US Blacks are 10 % of the population,but 80 % of the killers are black,mostly black on black.
19. #1 replace Israel with US and
Nina ,   NYC   (01.15.12)
Replace Arab with Jews and crime with Tax Fraud and ask the question again.
20. #13
(01.15.12)
You really must calm down,as you are becoming increasingly hysterical and boorishly rude.
21. Not Surprising
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (01.15.12)
Truth be told. If we deduct the number of traffic accidents, fatalities and violent crimes committed by Arabs from our National statistics, Israel would be near the bottom of all the lists. Then deduct the number of traffic accidents caused on the Sabbath by the Secular population, and we would be dead last.
22. Sarah , 13
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.15.12)
Most of the Israeli arabs haven't sent suicide bombers or slit the throat of a sleeping family either . It were mostly arabs from the territories and gaza who did it .
23. Arab murder rate in the US
David ,   San Francisco   (01.15.12)
The Arab murder rate in the US is nearly non existent! Most are highly educated, well off and crime isn't a problem with them at all. And Sarah B, just shut up for once. You're from New York, travel to the Middle East and then talk about your desire to massacre Arabs and ethnically cleanse them. Many people here support your lunatic posts, but the majority of Jews would find you disgusting! I would rather live next door to an Arab than next to a deranged woman such as yourself.
24. Sarah , 13
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.15.12)

25. Reuven 21
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.15.12)
and if you deduct the police forces necessary to counter the charidi riots on Shabbat , and other days , then they can be used to combat the general crime .
26. ambiguity here
observer ,   Egypt   (01.15.12)
Half of the Israeli Jews are Arab Jews. Arabs forms much more than 67% of Israel's population. so what.
27. @observer
sophie ,   dh   (01.15.12)
Nice try, but they are not counted in as 'Arab Jews'.
28. A little misleading... age counts!
Jordan ,   Richmond Hill   (01.15.12)
Its not as bad as it seems when you consider that crime is a young man's game and Arabs have a disproportionaly high amount of under 35's.
29. To: No. 15
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.16.12)
I hate to disappoint you, but I have been in Brooklyn exactly twice in my life.
30. To: No. 20
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.16.12)
Truth hurts, doesn't it? By the way, I find people who do not acknowledge their identities to be boorish and rude. Why don't you sign your posts, oh anonymous worm?
