3. @2 amen
tf ,   herzliya il   (02.16.12)
I wrote the same but it wasn't published
4. Well maybe, his people should STOP murdering and
Riva ,   Gush Etzion   (02.16.12)
Terrorizing "our daughters" and our babies and children, etc. And then, we might show some mercy... There's a GOOD REASON he's sitting in that jail! And there's a GOOD REASON that IDF are FORCED to go after these guys. THEY ARE NOT INNOCENT!
5. Darwin Award is pending.
Ariel ,   Europe   (02.16.12)
6. Speaking of "same monstrous way"....
William ,   Israel   (02.16.12)
Doesn't he belong to Islamic Jihad which terrorizes civilians all over the region, using rockets, suicide bombers, knife attacks, all the time, "in the same monstrous way they always do"? Regardless of his family life, he is still a terrorist and having a daughter does not absolve him of justice. Certainly, having children doesn't protect the Israelis Islamic Jihad slaughters.
7. I wish we could
DANIELA ,   panama   (02.16.12)
I wish we could ask the Fogel family about how terrorized they were before being killed.. Why those people that believe in terror think that only jews have to live with it? maybe some of your same medicine will make you change your way of looking at life and at your enemy.
8. WIFE IS PREGNANT with the couple's third child
Moses ,   Brooklyn, NY   (02.16.12)
"Randa, who is pregnant with the couple's third child" I' really wondering why he had the privileged of conjugal visits in prison?
9. could care lesss
joe ,   Israel   (02.17.12)
10. Slow death by choice. Not a bad decision on his part.
Harry Wright ,   UK   (02.17.12)
In fact, I highly recommend it to all terrorist prisoners especially the Iranian who blew off his leg in Thailand. This is such a worthy cause for which human rights activists can fight - the right for terrorists to choose death by starvation. They will get overwhelming support, I am sure.
11. Do you suppose Islamic Jihad ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.17.12)
.... were the Israeli prison authorities to order insertion of a feeding tube against the wishes of the prisoner? It's a no-win situation .... well, not entirely. If a terrorist dies, everybody wins.
12. be nice ISRAEL ,let him have his wish.
UNCLE JOE ,   CONN USA   (02.17.12)
totally ignore him .lay him down still shackled in an already made cheap casket or cardboard box ,cheaper .and let him croak and be gone ,what's the big deal .i wish they would all do that .BESIDES the sooner he becomes a rotting dead criminal ,OR SHAHEEEEED ,the sooner he will have his ''heavenly rivers of honey'' ,and his conjugal visits with his 78 year old virgin. besides, he is trying to be a good ''palestinian'' a dead one .
13. what is this Shalit II ?
david ,   safet israel - phila   (02.17.12)
not a news story.
14. No
Birdi ,   Israel   (02.17.12)
sympathy from me. If he wishes to starve himself, so be it, that's his choice & his alone.
15. What is the reason even to write about this guy?
Oleg ,   USA   (02.17.12)
If he does not want to eat, if he does not want to live, work and support his daughters, let him go his way to hell and forget about him. Do not spend time and money, place him in some dark room and wait till he is gone. What a dumb!
16. Good ridance and one less miserable criminal...
William ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (02.17.12)
17. "so poor thing..." moan the world
mary of bethany ,   singapore   (02.17.12)
yes, the naive world is so "stupidly" amazing. no matter how evil is your crime, even if you are a deadly prisoner on life sentence... as long as you just "self-tortured" yourself "poor-self" alittle by going hunger strikes, the Human rights, UN, CNN... every self-righteous bodies will demand "rights" on your behalf.... so i can just go and kill Erodgan or Abbas, then lock in the cell and start hunger strikes and world start saying... "so poor thing"... oosp, it's different, it only work on the poor poor poor arabs... so i better watch my TV, eat my nice snacks, yak a little on talkback, and wait upon the Great G-D Almighty to work out His justice, which will never be far away..... what a sick world... that a prisoner can strike at the innocents even behind bars! so send to prisons is "NOT THE END" for arabs.... anyway worst come to worst, Abbas can still demand prisoners release... ....
18. the "poor guy"....
les ,   canada   (02.17.12)
if he wants to die...let him die! the world be a little better place without him.
19. His choice, what does his family think Israel will do
(02.17.12)
release him or something? If only all terrorists would go this way...
20. #8
Rachael ,   Alaska   (02.17.12)
He has been there since mid december, pregnancies last 9 months, she could be a lot farther along than just a month ar two, I don't they are having conjugal visits if he hasn't even been eating.
21. This Article Is Not Newsworthy
Ross Gallen ,   HENDERSON   (02.17.12)
Giving publicity to this terrorist merely furthers his cause. It does not serve Israel to assist in his publicity. If he wants to commit suicide let him do it. Who cares? One less terrorist! There are real problems on the event horizon. The focus should be on the Iranian threat and not on this fool!
22. He must think nothing of his wife or kids
Bad Ased Jew ,   United States   (02.17.12)
suicide is preferable to life? His brain's up his ass.
23. One can only agree with that stance, #10
Cameron ,   USA   (02.17.12)
24. 10 people there
Yossi ,   Ashkelon   (02.17.12)
and French News Agency !! I have already seen a couple of time pictures describing the demonstration in french news paper
25. Let him croak!
Wise Saba ,   Ma'agalim   (02.17.12)
26. GREAT! THROW THE PRISON KEYS AWAY!
mary of bethany ,   singapore   (02.17.12)
like my school matron said to ungrateful students : "don't want? Done!"
27. #22, upon death he had 22 virgins awaiting...
mary of bethany ,   singapore   (02.17.12)
so why need to think of old fat wife and whining kids?
28. next news please, this sucks.
mary of bethany ,   singapore   (02.17.12)
(ynet, can remove the news from your site already.... btw, just let us know when he dies.....
29. So Sad and so unnecessary.
Rachel   (02.17.12)
He can start eating again wherever he wants, The Israeli prison system can't jam food down his mouth,but they can feed him intraveounsly which is what they seem to be doing. Despite his terrorist affliations he still is a human being who is,or at least should be treated with compassion,humanity, and decency by our prison system. If the soldiers acted the way he claimed they did, towards his family Shame on them. They should be punished. He claims to be so concerned about their welfare yet he will abandon them if he continues to starve himself,and the fault will be no one but his. He also has a wife and children who obviously love him very much, he has more than alot of people in this world. He should swallow his pride and some food along with that. Shame on his if he abandons his family just to make some stupid political point,what a horribly selfish thing to do.
30. he can be a shahied in prision too
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (02.17.12)
it is better than getting out and killing himself with innocent school children. Let him drop dead in prison with the rest of his terrorist buddies.
