1. not really alarming..
chava ,   yerushalayim   (02.13.12)
30 percent of people in prison are arab. And that's alarming?? Why? 25 percent of the population is arab, so they may be over-represented in prisons, but not by an "alarming" amount. Often the financially poorer members of a population are over-represented in prisons, & arabs are probably overrepresented in those sectors. So, it seems, the over-representation in the prison population isn't alarming at all.
2. Really?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.13.12)
So crime is rampant among Arabs. Gee. Tell me something I didn't know. What is interesting is that Tibi all of a sudden is finding reason to come to the Israeli government for aid and assistance (I guess his constituency is fed up with his ability to achieve anything). Not surprising, given the fact that he spends most of his time overseas, playing "diplomat" and composing cheap and obscene limericks. And now he wants our help. My solution: Tell him we will give that help, if he gives up his Knesset seat. Looky here. Tibi is no longer the chess queen. He's a pawn. Nothing like bringing down a grossly inflated ego. That would be Tibi. I doubt that he can name ten people in his constituency, anyway -- those that aren't family members, that is, and who also reap the benefit of Tibi's criminal activities. Yeah, Tibi, we know. You can fool some of the people some of the time; most of the people most of the time, but you cannot fool Jews. We know EXACTLY what you are.
3. Yeah, Tibi, blame it on the government
Scott ,   USA   (02.13.12)
The fact that Arab culture promotes violence is beyond you.
4. The law of the state must be the same for all
Yossef   (02.13.12)
More Arabs must be involved in the police and the security of their villages and around.
5. not surprising...At all
Real vision ,   usa   (02.13.12)
Islam is to be blamed because it is based on mohammed's law and life and not GOD's laws. Arabs and muslims are lawless everywhere in the world and the religious mullah are to be blamed because all they do is cause incitement toward the people of the book
6. This is because the police deem Arab sector no go zones
Sid ,   Jerusalem   (02.13.12)
If the police were to perform their duty rather than turn a blind eye to the Arab sector by declaring areas of Arab residence NO GO ZONES then the situation would change. Furthermore, by targeting fellow Nationalist Jews, with large numbers of police divisions because what ever the police do is ignored by the world instead of metting out the same treatment to the Arab sector this situation arises. Arab citizens spurn Isreali Jews and consider themselves superior and beyond reproach - Bibi needs to get out on the streets and open his eyes instead of hiding behind his security detail.
7. Sid @ 6, the fact that police might be watching me has
leo ,   usa   (02.13.12)
very little affect on my choice to obey the law. -- Would you stop making excuses and take responsibility for you actions.
8. Nothing Surprising Here
Abdel Karim Salim ,   Jerusalem   (02.13.12)
Sometime in early 1981 an Israeli soldier said to me that in Israel the first one is always the Jew ... !!! Arabs under Israel have grown used to negligence and slow action by Israeli police when dealing with arab problems ; they feel Israel watches with relish when arabs kill one another ... !
9. pure and simple
real vision ,   usa   (02.14.12)
arabs are out of control and there are no “community” standards to get the riff raff in line esp when their phony religious mullahs all scream hatred for mankind
10. to number 1
UNCLE JOE ,   CONN USA   (02.14.12)

11. TOabu kareeem saleeem haleeem at 8
UNCLE JOE ,   CONN USA   (02.14.12)
THEY DO . AND SO DO I .ABSOLUTELY .
12. Abdel @ 8, go join Sid @ 6.
leo ,   usa   (02.14.12)
Nobody makes you brake the law. It is your own choice.
13. honour killings...
joesay ,   melbourne   (02.14.12)
the arab sector needs to understand that they cant take the law into their own hands and kill people. most of the world has evolved and now have courts and judges and laws and punishments which are implemented by the state. evolve already!!!!!
14. to number 10
me ,   triangle, israel   (05.19.12)
most arab killings are gang or drug related, honour killings are a small minority among some radicles, Israel's (all Arab) murder capital, tayibe, had a lot of murders lat year and none of them were honour killings they were gang related and drug related Arabs are responsible for nearly 70 percent of murders i doubt that 5% are honour killings
