1. Rape! Again!
Ros ,   Tel Aviv   (06.27.13)
Much harsher punishment should be given to try and stop this daily occurrence of women and girls! What is our country coming to!!
2. The consensual excuse
Aviva ,   Tel Aviv   (06.27.13)
Rape is always an act of violence and as such, it leaves deep physical and psychological scars. Sex criminals, like most other criminals usually have a long history of repeat offenses. If found guilty, I hope justice will be served appropriately.
3. just a detail
chris (munich)   (06.27.13)
This is obviously not worth putting on your web site - it is "flea" not "flee" market. Though in this case "flee" is rather appropriate...
4. All of us must hang down our heads
Israeli 2   (06.27.13)
in shame. The police, the system, the courts, the laws, the Knesset, the people. This should never happen in Israel.
5. Very sick society
(06.27.13)
Every day a rape or a murder or an attack is reported, every day.
6. typo
Toby ,   Israel   (06.27.13)
flea market
7. To all the shocked talkbackers :
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (06.27.13)
It is not Israel alone with this disgusting behavior and morality. It is today's society; and to clue you in, it was the same during the 60's in the States (and continues). But then the media kept silent.
8. Consensual? Was she unconscious? After two rapes?
Michael Redbourn ,   Arad   (06.27.13)
One of the suspects is the club's owner. A third man later turned himself in but said that the sex was consensual. "There are security cameras that show there was no resistance," he said.
9. What is happening to Israeli society!
Rami of Nazareth ,   Israel   (06.27.13)
This is becoming a too frequent of an occurrence. Violence, crime and rape is becoming more widespread.
10. Allenby street, Jaffa are in "Bangladesh"
Gavriel ,   Budapest, Hungary   (06.27.13)
I'm not surprised. Some areas of Jaffa and the intersection of Allenby and King George street look like streets in a Third World country. Anything can happen there. It's better to avoid these areas, and also the Central Bus Station with is like Bangladesh! Tel Aviv Municipality finally should do something with these areas!

It's obvious: you have never been to Bangladesh!! When you get there and also to the favelas in Rio, then you can talk about King George and Allenby streets
12. Easy solution.....
Koose E Mack ,   NY USA   (06.27.13)
Let every young woman carry a weapon....Pepper Gas, Tazer, Pistol...etc. After a few rapists are shot or tazed the word will spread.
13. To Rami number 9
Shimon ,   Poleg   (06.27.13)
Us Israeli Jews have become like our enemies who seek to destroy us we are transforming and taking on the worst of Muslim Arab traits. This is seen in the 'Ars' sub-culture. The Christian Arabs have taken on the hard-working, honest, conscientious academic and ambitious traits that we as Israeli Jews used to have. People change and unfortunately sometimes for the worse.
14. no resistance??
chava ,   yerushalayim israel   (06.27.13)
"No resistance" could very well mean "scared stiff" or cooperating to save her life. Many women would rather be raped than killed.
15. See # 7
Stan ,   Israel   (06.27.13)
This has been going on for thousands of years, have you heard of Testosterone? Things have improved in Israel. When I came here over 50 years ago, I was shocked that the punishment for rape was 30 months or two years.
16. #10 Welcome to Israel
Stan ,   Israel   (06.27.13)
Maybe you have not heard : Sex offences in the governing class. Ex president jailed for 7 years. Director of Prime minister's office dismissed. Ex minister of justice served 6 months of "service" (Partial list)
