Terrorism - and should be tried as such in the courts!

You mean an 80 year old Arab Moslem squatter and foreigner living in our ancient Jewish homeland? The Arabs are neither native to our Jewish homeland nor are they welcome here since they have made their intentions clear: they want to wipe out Israel and the Jewish people from the face of the earth and the Arabs want to Arabize Israel and the Middle East and conquer and steal our land and either steal or deny our Jewish history in Israel. If the Arabs leave Judea and Samaria, they won't be attacked. Stop provoking the Jews by living in our land and claiming that our land is "yours". The Arab civilization threatens to wipe out the Jewish civilization. And should Jews do what - stand idly and just watch the Arabs living and building Arab squatter towns in Judea and Samaria? Oh sorry! It's extremist to say that Arabs do not come from JUDEA and that Arabs actually come from Arabia! It's racist to point out historical facts.

Did he have a bomb belted to him or was he about to lure a 5 year old into an alley so he can assault her? No... according to the report this was an unprovoked attack. The elderly and children should never be victims of such crimes. Where are all the Torah lovers wishing him a speedy recovery? Or does 'love thy neighbor' only applies to Jewish neighbors?

#2, Be he Arab or Jewish he is still 80 years old, your post shows how deeply vile you are,you have to be a big coward to attack an old man, truely you should be ashamed of your post. More than likely he and his family has lived there for generations,most likely more than you and your family.

So you think beating an 80 year old man is fine? It is the evil men like you who are destroying the Land.

He is an 80 year old farmer. I don't think he or his sheep are a danger to you.

None of the things you said make beating up an 80 year old right. If the story is true I don't see how you can stick up for two thugs who are so yellow they not only have to pick on an elderly person but it takes two of them to do it. Your hate if you can condone this is every bit as bad as that of your enemies. It's shameful.

One can only imagine the hate and disdain for non Jews implanted in them by their parents and system ,... Disrespect for elderly and common cowardice that's another subject ,...

this is behavior that Europeans and Arabs do, but I do not believe a Jew would attack an innocent

You had better believe it.We are nurturing teenage thugs on occupied territory,who truly believe that they have every right to do this.Some of the nutty Rabbis say it's Ok to attack a non jew.Well if the Koran says that in reverse,two wrongs dont make a right.

The natives ( Jews ) are restless and getting revenge, can you blame them after so many years of acts of pal terrorism? This old man should be retired with his son doing his job.

this farce they've perpetuated has become stale and even their sponsors aren't paying them to stay. The jig's up the pals are finis. Terrorism doesn't pay and it's reached a point where neither side can tolerate the other, pals MUST move, now or later, their choice or not Israel belongs to the Jews !

of such crimes." In theory, when it suits your argument.. What about the Fogle Family who had their throats slit by one of your 'pal children'? Or, the pal suicide bombers? Or, the 'camp' for baby jihadist's with live ammo? Children indeed, abused children that arafat called martyrs. AKA dead children. Idiot. In 10 years not one pals will remain in Israel. KEEP BUILDING !!!!!

his sheep his kin, all pals. Better MOVE !!! Safer in Syria... KEEP BUILDING !!!!!!!

that taught the pals to slit the throats of the Fogel Family. Only pals commit murder.

You are Despicable! How can you condone an 80 year old shepherd being attacked by teenage thugs,because that is all they are,This old man has probably lived here all of his life.He probably has family traceable for generations.You come here from America or some other place and are probably first or second generation only.I dont care what you call this man Palestinian,Arab,Shepherd or senior citizen.I have been in Israel for 5 years and on principle will not go to the West Bank.Is it any wonder that they hate us when they have to put up with such Jewish nationalistic thuggery.If you believe you live there because of God given right or religious convictions,I'm sure that God would not approve of your actions.If you live there for purely financial reasons,it is the fault of our politicians. for encouraging you.Until we stop thinking about "us and them" and start to think of individuals who just wish to do a days work and provide for their families ,the situation will get worse.Our little country is hated by many other countries because of our treatment of Arabs on occupied territory.We have to look beyongdBaruch Go;ldstein and Mayer Kahane,before we make any progress.We are not even allowed to demonstrate there without getting a tear gas canister fired into our faces.

What a busha!!!!!! whoever did this.

Their is no proud in attacking an old men Neither a yong one I understend the frustration of the settlers having to deal every day with hostile Arabs This is a Jewish land Arabs are guests Not owners They must respect the rules of the owners or move out Democracy as nothing to do with it Stop trying to make a peace with people that are clearly have the intention to destroy israel and that are saying it out loud If this Arab would of not be their this would of not happen I severely condemn this coward attack But the same way that we are just guests all over the world and that we have to obey the rules of the country's we live in ,th Arabs have to understand or the obey israel rules or they move out As simple as this

BBB, you are another one who needs medication and guarding.

that even in the talkbacks to the vicious attack on an elderly man people put forward racist and nationalistic views totally unrelated to the article. It's never ok to beat an old man to pulp for whatever reason. Show it by handing out severe punishments to the perpetrators. Like they would get had the victim been Jewish and the perp's Arab....yes....

After reading comment after comment on J Post, The Times of Israel, Ynet and many other Israeli new sites, I fully believe that Israeli's are some of the least peaceful and most racist people on earth. The majority of the comments either support of justify attacks against innocent Palestinians, call for their eviction, justification of property damage or yearn for Arabs to simply "leave." I always had good views of Israeli's until I actually started reading their opinions. And its NOT a small minority but a very significant one, or maybe even a majority. Yes yes, I'm sure I will be called an "antisemite" but I simply do not care. Reading Israeli's opinions has taught me that that label is hallow and worthless these days anyways.

# 20,Who are you Edouard? you don't live here and have no understanding of Israel or Palestine, the Palestinians are not guests in their own land and their don't have to understand anything suggested by you . They . say that ignorance is bliss, but in your case it is 100% more.

I understand how reading these comments can skew your opinion of Israelis but the majority of people are compassionate and good. Most Israelis do not even read Ynet in English or even know it exists, they read the Hebrew version. The derogatory comments you see are from a group of the same people: Sarah B., Build build build, Dror, A. Belgium, Ora, Birdi, etc... Half of them are not Israelis and do not live here. Please don't judge because of a group of 'Mean Girls' who chose to promote hate and segregation on Internet forums.

Dont you see that it is people like you,bigoted racist thugs, who tip peaceful Arabs past reason? These Arab villages were here long before 1967.It doesn't matter about God given rights,What matters is that we are all human beings.God's children if you are a believer.I would not care who I lived next door to ,so long as they were peaceful neighbours.But allowing for Hamas and other extremists,you are CREATING them by your blanket attitude of racism.I would not wish to live within a mile of anyone with your attitude
