1. Oh! How interesting!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.01.13)
This despicable miscreant committed treason. Treason carries a death penalty in Israel. Do it. And if the rest of that non-Jewish Neturei Karta rabble object -- well, deport them to Iran. No one will miss them. What business do they have living in Israel and sponging off the Israeli taxpayer, anyway? Cut them loose. I'm sure they will be more than welcome in Iran. I KNOW that they will not be missed in the sovereign State of Israel.
2. Yesterday attacking womenon buses today spying
Haim ,   TA   (08.01.13)
Now every day in the new we hear of more crimes by the ultra orhthadox, time to kick this cult and their followers out of this country the very same country that allows them to live this fanatical lifestyle. But then where else can you live for free above the law and not contribute a sheckel ?
3. to#-1
Samuel ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
I could'nt agree more. The whole community should be banished from Israel. Sarah, you are a true Zionist. I aways love to read your comments. You love to pounce on anybody who hates our G-d given tiny Land. "G-d Bless You" & keep up the good work,--Amen.
4. According to Sarah B's caprice! Really NO WAY!
(08.01.13)
Maimonides argued that executing a defendant on anything less than absolute certainty would lead to a slippery slope of decreasing burdens of proof, until we would be convicting merely "according to the judge's caprice." His concern was maintaining popular respect for law, and he saw errors of commission as much more threatening than errors of omission.
5. Hes no Jew who can sell out his own.
Israeli ,   Haifa   (08.01.13)
6. definition of a jew
ky   (08.01.13)
must include some sort of fellow feeling for his fellow Jews. This man can only be judged by his actions. which shows none. The result of his actions would be death , murder, treachery and betrayal. If Rabbis continue to define who is a Jew solely by birth rather than taking into account a persons life and actions it denies a very important human factor. We are not made of stone or brick but the rabbis interpretation would seem to assume this fact. If a persons life is so damaging and presents danger and constant threat to a majority who claim to share his faith then it is not right that he lives amongst them and even share the same religious definition.
7. What the hell are you talking about?
Motti   (08.01.13)
??????He was rebuked of insulting Iran while asking for political asylum but replied he was not seeking asylum. ??????
8. # 4 Your opinion
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (08.01.13)
might carry more heft had you included your name assuming, you have one. Personally, I believe all terrorists acts against Israeli's should also carry the death penalty. Of course, like this case, there is absolute proof and the absolute penalty is just. An eye for an eye.. particularly when that 'eye' is one of a spy. Meanwhile israel.... KEEP BUILDING !!!!
9. I concur fully.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (08.01.13)
This is one execution that should be made public.
10. Some lawyer
Tov ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
His lawyer said in his defence that it happened over two years ago.......well....that's ok then is it?
11. #1: In Israel, capital punishment is allowed during wartime
Just Sayin' ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
only and only for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, treason, and crimes against the Jewish People. We aren't at war and you aren't a Judge of Israel, you are only (if you are to be believed) a lawyer. Settle down and go read what the Talmud says about people like you.
12. One definition of a Jew...
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (08.01.13)
You left out quite a few others. Adherence to the laws, the 10 Commandments, prayer, good deeds, making the world better off when you leave they when you came And, first of all obeying our G-d. Shalom.
13. @8 what do they call u at work "build" or "baby"?
W. Turner ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
Must be "baby" because only babies make silly and funny comments such as yours. #4 is citing Maimonides! clearly you have no idea who that is because all you could do is insult and prattle on and on... well but then you are a Dah!merican! Stupid as they come.
14. Neturei Karta Goim!!!!!!
Phoenix ,   Israel   (08.01.13)
Kofrim and goim join the enemies of Israel. Neturei karat are not Jews. Must be deported!
15. Once and for all time
Sagi   (08.01.13)
This cult must be declared illegal and it's members deported.
16. To: Samuel at No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.01.13)
Thank you so much for your kind words. I have devoted much of my adult life to the State of Israel. Those who object had better stay out of my way.
17. TO GAZA WITH THEM, NOW.

Gabriel ,   Leiden, Netherlands   (08.01.13)
The problem with your use of the word ''goim'' (''Goyim'' for future reference) is that it implies that being non-Jewish is somehow akin to being degenerate. I know what the word ''Goy'' really means, and I also know that it was never intended as an insult. Sadly it is being used as such in some Jewish circles. Ask yourself this: would you object if non-Jews would use the word ''Jew'' in the same way as some of us use the word ''Goy''? I live in the Netherlands. As such, I meet more non-Jews than Jews, and the fast majority of those people are of far better character than this particular piece of scum, and certainly better educated than most Haredim for that matter. I prefer those Goyim over any Haredi anytime. And, by the way, despicable as they may be, Neturei Karta ARE Jews. Jewishness was never defined by political disposition, nor should it be. We are not in any position to deny them their heritage, regardless of our low esteem of their ''brand'' of Judaism.
20. #12 obviously you are not a rabbi
ky   (08.01.13)
Rabbis have given thousands of years of consideration as to whom should be defined Jew and they have come up with a well tried formula. . Your definition of whom is a Jew is nether acceptable nor humane and would exclude the vast majority of those who consider themselves Jews and having a wide variety of beliefs,including atheism, without accepting the narrow definitions that you stipulate YOU would have to depend on these very people for saving your life if the state of Israel should be at war. The majority of Jews are not believers in a Jewish version of totalitarian Islam and are quite happy with a far looser inclusive definition . However as regards this definition there should be a lot of thought given to what I said in my previous post.as to the feeling another Jew has for a fellow Jew. I believe it is the most important factor of calling oneself a Jew
21. No. 11
NYC Girl   (08.01.13)
Never mind what the Talmud says...bring on the firing squad.
22. finally a Charady man gets a job and you condemn him?
(08.01.13)
23. Spy
Steve ,   Liverpool, UK   (08.01.13)
Perhaps he had hopes that the Iranians would find him a better-fitting shirt.
24. Execut him NOW
Gady ,   Mexico City   (08.01.13)
if you don't have the guts, I can do it with my own hands. It will be a pleasure.
25. Missing Information
Maurice ,   Montreal   (08.01.13)
This piece is missing soe important information regarding how this person was tracked. How could they track him if he never used his phone or his home internet? Maybe Israeli secret service men have infiltrated the Iranian embassy in Berlin. If that is the case, congratulations! Whatever the case, it is a great achievement and it would be interesting to know more....
26. if they hate Israel so much
ex oleh chadash ,   south america   (08.01.13)
Why don't they leave the country?
27. To: No. 19
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.01.13)
Vast majority (for future reference).

30. @ 1
Sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (08.01.13)
Israel now has it's Pollard lol. Should he be freed after 20 years if convicted? Or should he be sent to Iran? A traitor is a traitor no matter what.
