1. Deri: if this bank catastrophe was due to econ crisis :
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (05.21.13)
then you'd better watch out - civil war is just around the corner. You know how many Israelis are suffering from economic crisis and poverty - all will take up arms and shoot the rest ? Where is your intelligence ?
2. Precious...coming from the likes of this convicted criminal
Al   (05.21.13)
his mantra. NO FREE RIDE...NO PEACE!
3. Don't exploit this, we aren't stupid
R ,   Israel   (05.21.13)
Mr. Deri, don't try to expolit this. It has nothing to do with the new government measures. This guy got himself into debt and refused to take responsibility for it. He blamed others for his failure, and killed innocent people who had nothing to do with his mistakes.
4. Austerity measures
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.21.13)
How many Shas "Torah scholars" receive apartments and stipends from the government? Cut them off, and help loyal Israelis who serve and who need help. Shas schools are deemed the worst in the country. Cut THEM off -- they aren't doing their job, anyway. Raise yet another generation of welfare-addicted cretins, Deri. That's all Shas has ever done.
5. because economic burden not shared by Haredim, then???
Logician ,   Israel   (05.21.13)
6. while deri's statement reminds me tragically of...
oferdesade ,   israel   (05.21.13)
... those rabbis who blame the death of a child on an unkosher mezuzah - and it's a shame he's the one saying it, like the nra, which blames gun violence on anything but the eaase of acquiring guns, here too the media is so quick to ask who gave him a gun, rather than who brought him to that place where he used it. so long as banks forgive dankner but not joe public, so long as politicians tax the poor but not the rich, anger will mount.
7. Financial advice from an ex con
Haim ,   TA   (05.21.13)
Guess he must have picked up a few tips while in prison. Shame he never heard of "thout shalt not steal" All this from a party that openly encourages their flock of brain washed zombies to live off benefits and refuse to serve in the IDF.
8. To: R at No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.21.13)
Please don't be so harsh. Alon's post-traumatic stress disorder was evident, and went ignored and untreated. I have a great deal of trouble reconciling an Israeli hero who served the State with great distinction with a man driven to despair to the point of killing four people -- and himself -- over a debt of a little over $1,500. Someone should have been watching. Yet no one did. Israel's social services are overtaxed, looking after illegal Africans and anti-Zionist so-called "Jews." Wouldn't it be better if we simply booted the Africans out, and let the United Nations look after them? They're not refugees in the accepted international sense of the word -- they have, after all, crossed more than one border. Most, I am sorry to say, came to Israel to avoid having to work, and to indulge their drug and alcohol addictions -- which are considerable -- and be assured of three meals a day and medical care. Let the United Nations do the job which they are called upon to do, and let Israel take care of the needy and the emotionally distressed Israelis. That's OUR job. Perhaps that's something Lapid could do, when he's through offering up silly interviews to major international media outlets. You know -- HIS JOB. Thus far, he hasn't. He'd better step up, or Yesh Atid will disappear as quickly as it arose. Our principal responsibility is to the Jews. Particularly those who have served, or are hungry, in need of medical assistance and simple company for a few hours each day. Everyone else comes in second best -- including the Neturei Karta and Satmer welfare hounds. Frankly, I'd give illegal African immigrants pride of place over that rabble.
9. What was the reason so many sh-ass m.k.s,
jason white ,   afula,israel   (05.21.13)
went to prison, including deri?
10. So Deri admits his love of money caused him to lie
Avi   (05.21.13)
Anyway, Haredim don't own guns so they'll only get themselves jailed.
11. #9 Jason After all these years, haven't you realized
Common Sense Please   (05.21.13)
Because Shas MKs have the most religious Sephardim and Shas MKs are the only ones who are convicted for money they take to support OTHERS not like other MKs whose judges and media turn a blind eye on them even though they take bribe begadol FOR THEMSELVES,
12. #9 Jason for OTHERS
Common Sense Please   (05.21.13)
I meant for the poor.
13. Mr. Deri
Avi ,   Belgium   (05.21.13)
You are responsible for being part of the Oslo Terrorist agreement and for all the Rifles and guns that the PA got and gave safe haven to the terrorists!! How dare you!!
14. If Poverty Leads to Crime....
Jake ,   Haifa   (05.21.13)
Then we must make all the Haredi work immediately.
15. Shelly Yachimovich, I will never ever vote for you. However,
Neil B. ,   Israel   (05.21.13)
you are truly courageous and honorable. Deri on the other hand remains the undisputed King of Slime in Israeli politics.
16. It is common to demand government handouts.
Michael ,   California, USA   (05.21.13)
Deeri knows this very well and worked "hard" over the years to secure handouts to his voters and to Haredim. What he is really saying is "don't limit the handouts now because I will lose my voter base completely." The Shas party exists for and because government handouts, not anything else.
17. No U.S. coverage of this Israeli tragedy/massacre
Rachel ,   Washington, D.C.   (05.21.13)
This is just amazing, I barely find no American coverage in the U.S. media of this massacre, home grown Israeli act of terror by a Jew, an Israeli citizen upon other Jews, Israeli citizens,,,,, why? Is Israeli blood cheap?
18. Jackass - happy i helped put him in prison
lightning ,   yerushalim   (05.21.13)
As a religious jew, I am proud that I helped put this opportunist away - he gives Hashems people a bad reputation. This deviant twists the message of Hashem of Yigia Capecha Ki Tochel and instead gives the Sitra Achra Co-ach by telling charedim to take money/life force from the cesspool of unholiness, the communst atheistic govt of -------.
19. the profit vrs the person
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (05.21.13)
It is true that there is a tendency here to trample the person to make a profit. Doubt if this is the case in Beersheba, but people are more important than the profit. Don't you agree?
20. Mr. Deri ask the rabbi
Ralph ,   Caesarea   (05.21.13)
to spend his fortune to build appartments for poor people and with the rest feed them!
21. Deri's comments highly irresponsible.
Raoul ,   Herzliya. Israel.   (05.21.13)
Sends a very bad message to those in need.
22. #17, I'll soap your tongue since your cheek is bursting.
Michael ,   California, USA   (05.21.13)
23. To #11 It is deri I am writing about, not
jason white ,   afula,israel   (05.21.13)
Robin Hood!
24. All sincere Shas voters
Paul ,   Jerusalem   (05.21.13)
is this really what you had in mind when you voted Shas? A religious party with no love of land, and no love of 'other' Jews. So what's left, stealing from the State to finance their perpetuation of questionable learning. I have never heard anyone claim normalcy who attributes mass murder to poverty, except Leftists trying to redeem the redeemable for their own self-centered, miserable agenda.
25. #17
(05.21.13)
Same thing happened after the Fogel massacre,which was even worse. Also,dozens of people including many children were killed in a natural disaster in Oklahamo the other day as well. That might at least partly explain why the massacre was not covered.
26. Speak English Michael of California
Linda ,   New Haven, Conn.   (05.21.13)
I'll try to understand your parable, babel, mono-syllablum,,,,, syllablum of a comment,,,, hey is syllablum a word?
27. deri is a massacre
alan ash ,   nyc ny   (05.21.13)
deri is a massacre---he has been trouble since day 1
28. Deri as a peddler of superstition, smoke&mirrors is used to
tom ,   tel aviv   (05.21.13)
uttering the most blatant fabrications and expecting the faithful to believe him. That's how Shas got it's mob to follow. But hey dude: you're talking to slightly more sober folks here. Trying to put a primitive, opportunistic spin on every occurence doesn't fly anymore. Even the "other" Mob (white, educated Ashkenazim) is slowly waking up to THEIR snake oil peddler: the Great Shaman Yair's Hocus-Pocus! Are we coming out of long slumber?
29. #26 Linda, English in Conn or French, or King Phillip still?
Michael ,   California, USA   (05.21.13)
Or do you guys are back to Latin there, in Connecticut, practicing what you call the mono-syllablum style, meaning yada yada.
