To plant olive trees is a blessing for the land and for everybody, Israel goverment should apologize to the Palestinian government, after all the man was a PA Minister. Abbas & Netanyahu prime concerns must be peace and to not undermine democracy. shalom

How will they be able to accuse the IDF or any other Jew if he had a heart attack?

Could happen to anyone at any time who is suffering from heat disease. Blame violent confrontations a three greatest contributory factor. Cut the violence and it wouldn't happen.

When Israel will stop being a republic banana? Punish those liars, yes Abu Mazen must pay a price for lying. Threatening Israel day and night with no consequences

my oldest dog has nine years old. i think it prevents me from deadly heart attacks.

This a grey zone in pathology. But the question should be asked, why did this man die at this particular moment? The trauma he suffered seems to have precipitated a fatal arrhythmia. Therefore, despite his atheroma and previous MIs, the manner of death is not natural.

Perhaps indeed his death was caused by a heart attack. It still amounts to wrongful death, if not outright murder, because his heart attack was induced by the threatening motions by the criminal IDF. Some Zionist leaders should be tried by the International Criminal Court for this in-effect murder.

All the leftist fantasies that led us to the Oslo catastrophe are pretty evident to the majority of Israelis. This "minister" of the Palestinian authority had murdered Jewish teenagers in Tiberius and his official position as a minister was to be in charge of riots against Israel. Every time we strengthen the Palestinians we are weakening ourselves and bringing the day closer to when they destroy us.

The world "lost" another Abu terrorist disguised as a minister. Of course Israel "killed" Arafat and now another arch terrorist dies facing his own victims is dead in the "hands" of the Israelis. I wish that that was correct. It would have elated me to know that Israel did something significant to those slime bags.

The article insinuates, that the injury or death of a person isn't the perpetrator's fault if it wouldn't occur to a fit and healthy victim. That' wrong: You have to take your victims as you find them. If Mr. Ziad didn't engage in violence first (which would be very unlikely due to his bad health and fitness) then there is no justification for punches, etc. And those who punched therefore have to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter.

Mr Ziad said he was simply planting olive trees on Palestinian owned land. Is that true? If it is, what was the confrontation about? Why was there a confrontation in the first place? Why was the IDF there? It would appear that Mr Zaid probably would have died planting trees - so what was the confrontation about?

he stood directly in front of the Israeli police defying them and orders to move. No, they wont stand trial for another inbred pal idiot like yourself or this dead one pals are bred to die, may they all get their wish. LOVE BUILDING JEWISH ISRAEL !!!

The Palestinians are trying to blame the IDF for the death of Abu Z, which will backfire in their faces. The confrontation took place on Jewish land.
