1. Have their family homes been torn down?
Daniel   (12.11.14)
As the policy is to destroy the family homes of identified terrorists, I guess the IDF has already moved in to destroy the houses of these terrorists?
2. If you send your children to secular public schools
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.11.14)
don't complain about Arab students.
3. #1 has anyone been killed?
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (12.11.14)
4. arson & hate grafiti
bob k ,   Orlando FL usa   (12.11.14)
I condemn the hateful graffiti no matter how much terror the Arabs do. But there is no comparison between this and Arab terror incited by the PA and hamas. Israel is a tolerant democracy while the PA president is unelected since 2019 since he knows he might be defeated by hamas. As for the co-existence school, iy is the Arabs who mostly want to be separate and not contribute to Israel's defense. I think an Arab-Jewish school is fine as long as enrolment is voluntary. The Arabs resist integrating into Israeli society that is the long -term problem..
5. Vandalizing an empty building is not terrorism
Shmilfke ,   Dublin   (12.11.14)
It's a crime and should be punished, but it's not terrorism
6. To: No. 1
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (12.11.14)
They are not terrorists. They are vandals. Besides, the law does not apply to Israeli citizens (not even the Arabs who commit acts of terror). The law applies exclusively to the Arabs who live under military rule in Judea and Samaria. Besides, that is where most of the terrorists come from. Haven't you heard? Did you just wake up, Rip van Winkle? Do you know about the thousands of Jews that were killed by "palestinian" terrorists? Have you seen their raucous and wild celebrations whenever a Jew is killed in a terror attack? Would you rather we throw these vanquished terrorist hyenas a tea party? Of course, we could always make terrorism by Arabs a capital crime. Then, the hangman would be the busiest person in all of Israel. What you are seeing is a perfectly natural response by Jewish people to vicious acts of terror by "palestinians." I suppose we should annex Judea and Samaria and deport all the "palestinians." They are the root of all evil.

split   (12.11.14)
You're kiddin', right? There're plenty examples of uniformed border goons getting away with premeditated murders, including children ,... Good time to watch how this so called Israeli 'justice' works ,...
8. What an irony!
Avi ,   NYC, USA   (12.11.14)
The three suspects, with the last names Twitto and Gabay, are clearly Moroccan Jews. When growing up in Israel my parents used to admonish me against befriending or, God forbid, marrying members of this ethnic group because they considered them...Arabs. And today members of the same group are acting to prevent intermarriage with Arabs! Xenophobia can indeed be practiced by anyone, making it a truly democratic trait.
9. re: Have their family homes been torn down?
joel ,   jerusalem   (12.11.14)
compared to the arab terrorists, the guys did not kill anyone. but you know that, daniel, right? mixing information is also terrorism... the guys will be locked up. thats good so.
10. It is all theater, the criminal are jews. They have
James USA   (12.11.14)
national approval and will be released with a slap on the wrist.
11. Hope the school ...
alsky ,   Toronto   (12.11.14)
rebuilds and grows. With all the problems in Israel and ME, we must always seek those who wish peace !
12. and "these beast" got the nerve,,,,,,,,
Glenda Sommes ,   Hanover, Md   (12.11.14)
These b-stards got the nerve to be smirking and smiling in this photo. This is not Jewish character. Lock these young degenerates up.
13. Punish them harshly and set an example to others.
Michael ,   California, USA   (12.11.14)
These "cousins" of Yigal Amir are the scum of Israel, among the worst the state can bring up. They should stand trial and be given the harshest possible penalty under the law. With acts like theirs, the haters of Israel have powerful arguments against us. This cannot be allowed to continue.
14. See:"Radicals"-just like Bibi :-)). Not very clever lads,
(12.11.14)
that's for sure. The sentiment behind it is all right, but the means & timing bad for Cosa Nostra!
15. This was not a terror attack
(12.11.14)
Just Jews defending themselves...
16. arab jews hating on arab muslims and christians
(12.11.14)
why are arabs always so angry?
17. this is a flavour of the Bennett Israel
Brian ,   London   (12.11.14)
18. Sorry #1 it seems there were no terrorists but Jewish boys
(12.11.14)
By the way, there's no such thing as Jewish terrorists. This word is strictlty reserved for
19. No because in Judea and Samaria the law
Rod ,   Fargo N.Dakota   (12.11.14)
is the same as it was under British and Jordanian rule.Outside of Judea and Samaria it's Israeli law.How many Arab Israelis who committed terrorist acts have had their homes torn down.
20. Book Burning??
Ben ,   Harrisburg   (12.11.14)
Racist - Check Book Burner - Check Attacking Children - Check Nazi by another name! - Check! I am not claiming these morons or their mom as member of our people! What a hateful nasty bunch. Whatever valid concerns Lahava may have, the behavior of its members renders it immaterial.

"These type of little stinky "jews" create anti-Semitism" ,... It contributes to today's version of anti-Semitism but it's your mindset and attitude that created it and keep it going since day one ,... It started with your fairytales and the 'chosen' attitude. Take a look at some or your 'leader's' like Ovadia Yosef teachings and where this crap derives from. This punks started one day with some insignificant act and got away with it so they kept going facing impunity instead of justice ,... In my opinion they and their mother are a victims of Talmud and Zionism that teaches this crap of superiority and disdain to others. Have a good one ,...
22. An activists??? ,...
split   (12.11.14)
If they were a Palis they wouldn't be a ''far right" or any 'activists', they wouldn't be laughing, they would be dead, shot as terrorists, their homes bulldozed leaving their families homeless ,...
23. To: No. 22
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (12.11.14)
You have it precisely backwards. If there were no "palestinians" in Israel disrupting our lives with their wars, their terror and their proclivity to violence and mayhem, Israel would not have a far right. The very fact that there is a far right in Israel is attributable exclusively to the "palestinians." You start a war; you lose; you should expect that there will be consequences, and those consequences will not be pleasant. Six major wars; twelve lesser ones -- all started by the "Palestinians;" all won by Israel. I guess they still have not learned that it is a spectacularly bad idea to mess with the Jewish State. By the way -- remind me if you will; whatever happened to the four million ethnic Germans who lived in the Polish Corridor and East Prussia? I seem to recall they were deported to Germany. Gosh, see -- there's precedent? If Poland can deport four million ethnic Germans, why cannot Israel deport 2.5 million "palestinians?" We won all the wars, after all.
24. Three far-right activists admit to burning Jewish-Arab Jer
Paul Kopyt ,   New York, USA   (12.11.14)
My politics are to the right, and my immediate family resides in the Gush and I abhor what these 3 stand for and the crimes that they perpetrated. The photo of these 3 grinning in court makes the statement by their attorney of torture and forced confession ludicrous and insulting to our intelligence. Furthermore the statement of support from one of the mothers makes me wonder why we shouldn't prosecute her as well for abusing the mind and values of her son.
25. My first years in Israel have shown me
olim hadashim ,   tel aviv   (12.11.14)
that under the word "coexistence" a lot of agression and terror is being directed against Jews in their own land.
26. #6 sarah B. you are clearly not of my people
avramele   (12.11.14)
Burning school rooms is a "natural reaction" to one and one thing only - the machinations of a warped and racist mind. Your manic ramblings represent a distorted and contemptible evil alternative reality. No Jew should feel proud to call you their sister. Readers, look at the picture of the three arsonists and imagine that same Manson like smile on the face of the commentator who calls herself Sarah B.
27. hehe...hehe...Bigot SPIT is eating his heart out!
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (12.11.14)
28. #1, Have streets being named after them?
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (12.11.14)
they didn't murder anyone like your arab bothers do to jewish children and Rabbis
29. So are ALL Jews terrorists now?
Mike   (12.12.14)
When one Arab commits a crime or act of terrorism, Jews say all Arabs should die. So now what?
30. #3 - yes. A 15 year old Palestinian boy
Mike   (12.12.14)
was forced to drink gasoline and set on fire. AND admitted it. Why didn't the IDF tear down their homes, beat and kill and imprison their family members and neighbors? That's what's done when it's an Arab perpetrator.
