1. Definition of Human Rights Violations
Righteous Zionist ,   Israel   (03.11.14)
seems to be the right of Arabs to kill Jews. And why do we have to call troublesome local Arabs ''Palestinians'? It only encourages them to fabricate an even more extreme narrative.
2. It's about time!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.11.14)
Those juvenile delinquents need to learn that if you play with fire, you risk getting burned. Herding goats. Yeah, right. And his younger brother was picking flowers for mommy, and his next-younger brother was sorting through scrap metal, and his youngest brother was on his way to the mosque. But no one -- heaven forfend -- was hurling boulders at cars. Nary a one. Punk got what he deserved. Maybe the next punk will be a little more careful before hurling boulders. If not -- well, he'll be "herding goats" in hell, too.
3. Stone throwers are potential killers !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (03.11.14)
They must be dealt with accordingly...
4. Stonethrower killed
philip max ,   NYC USA   (03.11.14)
Ken Yirbu! It would be most discouraging should any Israeli gov't official apologize for this. Stone are deadly weapons.
5. Enough have been maimed
World Citizen   (03.11.14)
Enough of innocent people in Israel have been maimed, lost eyes, some killed by rocks thrown while vehicles are moving (compounds the speed of the rock missiles). Hope this helps reduce the number of rock missiles thrown!
6. NATO must displace IDF in West Bank, protect Arabs from Jews
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.11.14)
7. Exactly what we have to do!
Abraham Nachmias ,   Petach Tikva IL   (03.11.14)
This is the only way to treat with people who want to kill us and to conquer our land through terror! It was tried to talk, trust and talk again and we all saw that doing so only brings more violence. A rock attack or a Molotov cocktail are deadly weapons, so this is self defense!
8. Stones are lethal weapons.
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (03.11.14)
No different than bows and arrows, guns or hand-grenades. Stones kill.
9. Throwing Stones an Inalienable Human Right
Steve bin Donkey ,   Silver Barn, MN USA   (03.11.14)
Throwing stones at Jews is an inalienable human right for us Arabs. We've been doing that for almost 1400 years - or maybe even longer.

the goats roaming around, goats do not prevent people from doing other things in the same time.

Haim ,   TA   (03.11.14)
12. Terrorism
Muhannad AbuTair ,   Jerusalem   (03.11.14)
This is israeli terrorism, the soldier should go to jail for his coward action. when will you racist ignorants commenting supporting the israeli aggresion will wake up and understand how hateful are israeli actions. he was a 20 year old university student who threw rocks at settlers and israeli army near his village! he is not the one coming from europe, he is the one coming from across the street. israel is a terrorist state.
13. death in the Westbank
rm ,   NL Amsterdam   (03.11.14)
Some settlers throw stones too don't see them getting an instant-death-penalty. Its almost as if Israel wants to ignite another intifada to be done with the peace-pretence
14. Don't stay in Israel!
Jerry ,   Sweden   (03.11.14)
@ Muhannad AbuTair, if Israel is a is a terrorist state then it's better that you no longer stay i Israel = Jerusalem!
15. Make it count
jj   (03.11.14)

16. rock throwing is lethal
jenifer ,   jerusalem, Israel   (03.11.14)
It's about time for the Israeli army and civilian population to react strongly agaiinst the hooliaginism of the arab terrorists throwing stones-this too is a lethal weapon,and they have to realize that if they treat us this way, that there are severe repurcussions, and then PERHAPS they have think twice before they throw.
17. Throw stones
amiram ,   israel   (03.11.14)
Stone throwing Haredim are actually throwing petals of roses!
18. To: No. 12
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.11.14)
Oh, shut up. First of all, if you don't like living in Israel, feel free to leave at any time. Secondly, you people made an extraordinarily bad decision (the first of a great many) when you rejected partition in 1947. You chose to go to war. Didn't work out so well for you, of course, but then you promptly compounded the error by waging war against Israel on five additional occasions, losing each time. You have also engaged in violence and horrific acts of terror for nearly a century; against Jews both in the State of Israel and in the Diaspora. The litany of "Palestinian" terror is long and gory. You have managed to make yourselves unwelcome in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Tunisia, Kuwait, Oman, Muscat and Abu Dhabi. The only people who have ever tried to help you -- in fact; the only people who have ever treated to well or done anything for you -- are the Jews. You showed your gratitude by engaging in terror, more terror and still more terror. You've worn out your welcome with us, too. And, after so much violence and terror on the part of the "Palestinians," you have the unmitigated gall to declare that Israel is a "terrorist state." I repeat my initial offer: feel free to leave at any time. Sooner or later, we're going to have to repatriate all of your sorry asses to Jordan, anyway -- maybe if you get a head start, you can find a decent slum before they're all taken.
19. For Weeks Ynet Has Article About Settlers Throwing Stones ..
World Citizen ,   the world   (03.11.14)
While The Israeli Military Watches But let a Palestinian throw a stone and Israeli guns are drawn to murder. And people like the bitter, hate-filled Sarah egg the soldiers on. Your country is on a downward spiral of violent, racist bigotry. It is evident in most of the posts on this site. When I want people to understand the deep racism of Israel I suggest that they read the posts on Ynet for one week. If they do as I suggest I never have to listen to them tell me that Israel is a democracy again. Shame on all Israelis for letting your country sink so low.
20. NATO must displace Foreign Arabs to Mecca to protect Jews

21. Did they check the goats.Maybe the goats threw the stones?

Birdi ,   Israel is ours.   (03.12.14)
Take all your brothers & sisters & return to Jordan where you belong. Your people are terrorizing & killing my people & you have the nerve to call Israel a terrorist state? You belong behind a cage!
