1. Two options
(08.18.13)
The rulers of Israel have two options to their people: either take the side of Israel and ALL HIS PEOPLE, or take the side of Israel and ALL HIS PEOPLE. History shows that there is no other way. It is time to act toward the joining of forces between Jews of all faiths. Rulers who understand this fact, are wise rulers.
2. I feel sorry for him
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A./Israel   (08.18.13)
Events like this have to have an end. We are talking here about a 47-years-old shepherd. This is outrageous. I hope the police can investigate, arrest and punish the attackers.
3. NATO must replace IDF in West Bank, protect Arabs from Jews

5. Shepherd Beating
Tom ,   Tennessee   (08.18.13)
Is this another example of Muslim on Muslim violence?
6. The moment I read B' Tzelem
AK   (08.18.13)
I sincerely doubt the veracity of the Arabs. Since the attackers were masked, the identity is totally unknown, it means, they could have been Arabs. Sooo, why does B'Tzelem come into this? Another man bites dog story, and that after 26 Arab muederers were released.
7. who were the attackers?
meira ,   TA   (08.18.13)
Since they were "masked," how does the victim know who they were? Why didn't the other "shepherds" try to stop the attack, or at least pursue them? Sounds like more anti-Israel propaganda from B'tselem (funded by the EU).
8. arab being attacked
jenniferj ,   jerusalem, Israel   (08.18.13)
since the attackers were masked-for all you know that they were arabs themselves!
9. Refouah Shlema
2Mad ,   גולה בצרפת   (08.18.13)
It could hardly be the Jews, as sheep got harmed as well. There wasn't btselem cameraman either. Maybe he ran into some peace-partner freedom-fighters, who explained him in civilized manner that keffiyeh is mandatory when coming on meeting.
10. The men didn't talk
Chaya ,   Tel Aviv   (08.18.13)
They wanted to hide their identity
11. ambush
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (08.19.13)
This was obviously a planned ambush. The same spot has been used before to attack shepherds. Where are the police?!?
12. Shepard beating - the quintessential Holy Land moment
Cameron ,   USA   (08.19.13)
Though I am sorry for the poor SOB who was just going about his usual routine.
