1. Price tag kingdom reigns
citizen ,   Israel   (08.21.13)
Why the police cannot find the key to tag mehir's door?
2. Strange
peter ,   tel aviv   (08.21.13)
the police should monitor those places constantly since it is obvious that those "drecks" who do this will return again and again. Enforcing real punishment on the perpetrators might change that but as long as those freaks get only slapped on the wrists nothing will change. And anyone now commenting that it happens all the time to us Jews should bear in mind that two wrongs do not equal a right. This behaviour is simply shameful.
3. "Police investigating"
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (08.21.13)
How often one reads that the police are investigating - - - but almost never that the perpetrators have been caught in these 'price tag' attacks... Why is that?
4. The problem is religious and nationalistic extremism.
David Clarke ,   Liverpool, England   (08.21.13)
Yet again another racist price tag incident against ethnic and religious minorities living in Israel and once again the culprits will more than likely slip through the fingers of the authorities despite everyone knowing that it is conducted by right-wing nationalistic extremists and religious fanatics. Israel purports to be a civilised country, a civilised country should look after its citizens from an ethnic minority background and should find and punish those responsible for persecuting minorities. These disgusting attacks are becoming far to common.
5. Given the attacks on churches and monasteries in Egypt ...
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (08.21.13)
More than 60 churches and monasteries have been attacked and many destroyed by those affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood. Morsi and the Brotherhood have many supporters in Israel and the West Bank (and obviously in Gaza), some of whom demonstrated in front of the Egyptian embassy in Tel Aviv recently demanding Morsi's reinstatement. And while it's certainly possible that Jewish extremists were behind this act of vandalism, we've encountered a number of "false flag" attacks by Arabs against their own, expecting that Jews would be blamed, including one on a hilltop mosque, initially and falsely blamed on Jews. This could well be a "two-fer" - attack a church in sympathy with their Islamic brethren in Egypt, and get the Jews blamed for it. I'll wait for the results of the police investigation.
6. Bravo #5, What proof Jews did it???

7. Jews never do such things, do we?
Avramele   (08.21.13)
Price tags attacks on Arabs and Gentiles Prostitution rings Child and teen sexual abuse Spousal beating White collar larceny Ethnic discrimination We are never guilty, we sin by mistake, No need for al khaits and tshuvah this year cause we are perfect and we are chosen.
8. 6 is right-Arabs are burning mosques burning their fields...
miki ,   tampa   (08.21.13)
uprooting their own orchards, stealing their own lands, defacing their neighbors churches, exiling themselves should they marry the wrong person, Israel is always right.
