1. History repeats itself
(05.11.14)
The destruction of both First and Second Temples were the direct result of civil wars pitting the Jewish people against the corrupted Jewish elite who hated the people while profiting from and identifying with the superpower of the time. In both cases, the civil wars ended with genocide of the Jews, where also the self-styled elite suffered. If this article is correct, the AG and Justice Minister are declaring that because they are unable to prove who committed a given act of graffiti they will start arresting random Jews without evidence, and punish them far in excess of the legislated maximal sentence. Even if there is video evidence of police or Leftists drawing the graffiti, an incarcerated Jew will not be released because the AG and Livni won't give the Jew a legal forum. Netanyahu, Livni, Weinstein, no one can stop you: you have the courts in your pockets and Yassam will follow your every command. However, you are responsible for the coming genocide. You will be remembered as the "Sanhedrin" whose corruption led to 2000 years of rape and murder of Jews.
2. Acts of Legislation...a bad joke
Michael ,   Haifa   (05.11.14)
As long as these little fascist thugs have the support of racist rabbis and fascist politicians, nothing will happen to them. Yitschak Rabin had the only sensible idea about curbing terrorism...."break their arms and legs"
3. Skewed view - Semantics?
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (05.11.14)
If and when the correct words are used to define the years of vicious attacks on the Jews from the Arabs, Christians, Muslims, Nazis, anti semites, the pals et al. and, when one of those words is war, until that time, these 'price tag' actions will continue out of generations of Jewish frustration. Part of the problem is that we Jews also teach, as have our opponents, ( that's the war part...the first salvo and prelude to war is words..) what is spray painted on our guests walls, the same expressions of hatred, as we Jews have been attacked repeatedly for eons from all sides for just being Jews. This isn't simply tribal warfare, it is a war to save what remains of we Jews. The beginning of this war is recorded in Genesis, that war has never ended. To make matters worse, we host our own tormentors in our Holy Land Promised and given by our G-d exclusively to Israel, not the Christians, not the Muslims. PLEASE, KEEP BUILDING !!!
4. It's GRAFITTI.
Gideon Reader   (05.11.14)
Hoe many deaths, please? How many serious injuries, Please? How many minot injuries, P{lease? How many hurt feelings, Please? Oh. About skatieeightgazillion! So, Annoying and tacky street art and comment that defaces and irritates warrants open ended detention in a custodial facility (JAIL)?? Israel beclowns it'self. How freaking sad. It IS GRAFITI.
5. Even Salladin ordered Respect
Zechariah   (05.11.14)
Can't see need for these Ugly Provocations on Churches and Mosques.Produced by Persons in Fanatical deluded Space working against the Long Truce or the Grumbling RealaPolitic Coexistance .Cannot Change the Status Quo Dramatically .
6. If Israel were only to go after the Arab murderers with just
Al   (05.11.14)
gusto then maybe there would be no tagging. As it stands I have yet to see any clear evidence that these taggings are the work of Jews. Its a pity that Israel keeps on looking for the boggy man all the while cow towing to the enemy. We just commemorated Yom Hazikaron where rivers of tears were shed for those lost. You would think that you'd all get a clue. Israel is a great country. It is too bad that the Israeli Jew who runs the country is dumb as shit Go after your killers and stop the grandstanding.
7. Dictatorship.
Michael Pielet ,   Israel   (05.11.14)
Livni and Weinstein, two examples of corrupt autocrats who make a mockery out of the rule of law and democracy. When it comes to arab terror, murder, and incitement these 2 extremists are quiet.
8. While murderous "Palestinian" terrorists are freed.
Chaim ,   Israel   (05.11.14)
Israel 's government treats juvenile graffiti scrawlers and petty vandals more harshly than mass murdering "Palestinian" terrorists. This is proof of an insane justice system. Israelis should demand the prompt dismissal of Weinstein and dangerous incompetent Livni.

10. The Acquiescence of Silence
Od Yosef Chaii ,   West Bank   (05.11.14)
Absent from the long list of Israeli-Jewish leaders who condemn the price tags are the leaders and Knesset members of the Bayit Hayehudi, the successors to the Mafdal In the Bible we read; An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Price tags is the literal interpretation of that verse, this despite the fact that Rabbinical Judaism and the Western world has rejected this interpretation. .
11. Administrative detention
A Jerusalemtie ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (05.11.14)
is not the way to go. These criminals must be caught and tried. This is a terrorist organization. Their sole objective is to frighten and to harass. Strengthen the laws, the punishments and the courts. Catch them, try them and imprison them but do not start using dictatorial means to do so.
12. #1 NO, it is UR living in STONE-AGE-SECT-acting \Nothing to do with Moses, Jewish spirit
(05.11.14)
13. #2 a correction
I was there ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (05.11.14)
Rabin's order was nothing to do with terrorism, in those days we dealt with terrorists. Rabin's order was against rioters who threw rocks.
14. Get out the troops
paulD ,   Jerusalem   (05.11.14)
the illustrious, representative of centuries of torment against their savior's people, is coming to pollute Jewish land with his tears for Arabs, and us Jews must be on our best behavior. Sickening.
15. Netanyahu and the 'Price-taggers'
Yechiel   (05.11.14)
Israel is slipping into a messianic apartheid State. The tail is wagging the dog with settlers telling the Prime Minister policy and giving a narrow vision that is bad for Israel's economy. Israel needs a new direction and a new PM.
16. Von Cleesewitz on War
Gideon Reader   (05.11.14)
Somehow I am strongly and strangely reminded of John Cleese as a Roman Sgt. correcting the grammar and spelling of a grafitti daubing Brian Cohen. If your youngsters are clotured and prevented from reasonable venting of political frustrations and complaint of what they precieve as mis management and general unfairness, they may follow the path of a young Geula Cohen and the Irgun & Lehi. It is only paint. Paint does nothing but assault the feelings of the ruling administrative class. What Sharansky would have known as the nomencultura. These are your children. Do not criminalize them for being young and in opposition to your midmanagement. You will soon be pumping smoke up their tuches's looking for their votes. they will NOT forget.
17. A normal country
Yechiel   (05.11.14)
In a normal country these settler rabbis would be jailed for their incitement to violence.
18. #12 stone age?
(05.11.14)
Scientists say the Stone Age ended 2000 bce. The Magna Carta that gave people the right to an evidence-based trial for breaking laws, as opposed to arbitrary detention by the sovereign, was from 1215 CE The Constitution of the United States that gave the right to trial, arbitrary arrest, trial without indictment and a speedy trial was from was from 1789 CE. These documents are not from the "Stone Age", although supporters of Josef Stalin think they are not necessary.
