1. Moderates unite, regardless of nationality
Dan   (08.01.15)
Moderate Jews must unite with moderate Arabs, and defeat and exclude extremists, whatever their nationality or religion. That is the one and only hope for the future of either side. Our tribe must be defined not by our ethnicity but by our willingness to reason.
2. Settlers Immunity
Mark ben Josef ,   USA   (08.01.15)
The problem is compounded by the apparent immunity the settler community has and the political cover they have. They are the electoral base of the current government.
3. The shameful paraders are equally guilty of the stabbing and
David J ,   Tel Aviv   (08.01.15)
so is the govt. If they don't respect the people (living there) and authorize such parades to pass through the holiest city and defile it how should anyone respect them?
4. No proof that Jews were behind the Arab death
David J ,   Tel Aviv   (08.01.15)
More likely than not, it's another one of Arabs' "accomplishments" and Jew blaming. Typical left media and left govt.
5. reply to David J Tel Aviv in denial
Lior   (08.02.15)
Shameful parades? Im sorry if it offends you that there are gay people who serve in the army, work for a living and pay taxes yet still in the year 2015 are denied their basic rights and are persecuted by the religious. Talking of which, who are now killing babies and stabbing teenagers. Gay pride was not born to celebrate being gay but to demonstrate our right to live without persecution. ISIS are throwing gay men off the tops of buildings head first to a gruesome death if you think for one minute we will allow this to happen here , which is exactly what the ultra orthodox would do if they got their way then you had better think again. Holy city oh do me a favor. 6 young people were stabbed in an attempt to murder , nice example of your morality maybe not enough to satisfy your lust.
6. Mark - # 2
Stan ,   Israel   (08.02.15)
Unfortunately you are 100% correct. What can be done with David J # 3, #4? Another extremist religious Jew living in the First Century.
7. False and inflammatory, absolute shame on Y Net
Rafael V. Rabinovich ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (08.02.15)
Why does Y Net allows such anti-semitic editorial? "No different than ISIS"?! How often do you see pictures or videos online of Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria posing next to the severed heads of Arabs, or of other Jews? Never! Furthermore, you are using an isolated case of extremism to portray the entire movement of Shlemut HaAretz as " ISIS". You well know that's reality is far from that. Shame on Y Net. We do not need a left-wing Goebbels manipulating information that will end up as fodder for the world's antisemites.
8. Jewish Jihad does not exist
c   (08.02.15)
jihad is exclusively a muslim invention and obligation.
9. Jewish Terrorism
Joe ,   West Bank   (08.02.15)
The Jewish terrorist has two political goals. First and foremost is to derail any accommodations with the PALESTINIANS involving land swaps and evacuation of settlers. in this they have supporters in the government. Their second goal is enrage the ordinary Palestinian to commit acts of violence. The IDF then enters the picture in force resulting in asymmetric casualty figures among the Palestinians evoking global condemnation. ."There are none so blind as those who will not see. The most deluded people are those who choose to ignore what they already know’.
10. Hypocrisy..why not outrage with ongoing Arab terrorism
Don Lory ,   Jerusalem Israel   (08.02.15)
The indiscriminate firing of thousands of missiles by Hamas is pure Moslem Terrorism and htred of the Jewish State, regardless of whether "they were unsuccessful" in killing hordes of Jews. Their intentions were clear and its called terror. The recent death of an Arab baby due to a molotov cocktail is nothing shoprt of a disgrace, chilul Hashem and totally unacceptable. I can understand the outcry from leaders to politicians. BUT WHY hasn't there been the same outcry, and public condemnations when hundreds of stones and molotov cocktails are thrown daily at Jewish families (vehicles and buildings/homes) in the old Yemenite Village of Shiloach in Jerusalem and on roads in Judea and Samaria. Is it just because no Jew was actually killed and the Arabs weren't "successful" ?? It strikes me as a little hypocritical. Don't wait for a Jew to be killed. Speak out today against Arab and Moslem terrorism which is rampant....even if not "successful on many occasions.
11. #3
NilsG ,   Helsingborg, Sweden   (08.02.15)
To most, there is a definite difference between "respect", and "stabbing to death with a knife".
12. Terrorism, Jewish or Other
Judith ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (08.02.15)
Yes-- a handful of inciters can create a giant conflagration in our small country. Likewise, a giant media-blitz--with newspaper headlines like "Our House is Burning," has the secondary purpose of delegitimizing the entire kippa-wearing, Mesorah-observing segment of the population. No new nationwide curriculum devoted to tolerance is needed: the expression of horror and outrage was heard from one corner of the political/religious spectrum to another. What is needed is the universal death penalty for perpetrators of terrorism. The deaths of innocent people must be avenged in a lawful manner. In the two cases this week, there is no doubt about who the terrorists were. Society would not have to fear putting an innocent person to death.
13. Moderates Unite
Chava ,   Jerusalem   (08.02.15)
Dan is so right - in a time of inflamed passions and religious-based violence in the Middle East, only if all we moderates - of every religion, leftists, rightists etc raise our voices, protest, act unite -can we prevent disaster
14. The Jewish Jihad is supported by the great majority of the
Shachar ,   Eilat   (08.03.15)
right wing in Israel. In the Muslim world Jihad is an accepted and even revered term meaning the struggle and perseverence of obtaining religious goals. There are widely differing views as to how Jihad should be carried out, most of which aren't violent. Religious Jews also have a goal and believe perseverence and piety will achieve there goals. The modern Jewish Jihad believes in force while trying to limit violence. But two Jihads in one small area leaves little chance for anything but violence.
15. Move to Tehran
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.08.15)
gays hanging from lamp posts, sound good to you?
16. Moderate Arabs?
jBUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.08.15)
LOL that's a hoot, name one... Our tribe has one goal to stay alive and keep Israel open for Jews not their enemies, the Arabs who've never been known for moderation when the subject of Israel arises. Reason isn't an Arab virtue they consider murdering Jews their top priority. KEEP BUILDING JEWISH ISRAEL !!!
17. Same in America
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.08.15)
Settlers in America MADE America. They were represented by fellow "settlers" who founded this great nation. Now, under obama, the border is open for any illegal alien to become a 'settler.' Of course they are the electoral base, they put their lives on the line, we American's don't. ( but, we did way back.) KEEP BUILDING BABY !!!
18. You tell 'em baby !!!
(08.08.15)
Expect loonies from the left on Ynet most are the Ynet writers....
19. #9 sounds psychotic "The devil made me do it, pals"
(08.08.15)
pals need no excuse for terror, they are the most experienced terrorists that Ala has. Peace is final when the pals are gone from Jewish Israel and, it's coming soon. Just not soon enough however, after the pals champion, obama is gone, so will the pals. LOVE BUILDING FOR MORE JEWS AND LESS pals.
20. # 10 YES to that Buddy!
(08.08.15)
21. # 11 Damned straight!
(08.08.15)
Respect and death aren't the same.
22. # 12 Judith AMEN Death penalty for all pal terrorists.
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.08.15)
should have been in place a long time ago.
23. We moderates?
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.08.15)
Not one pal or Arab is moderate, they want all Jews dead in Israel so they may destroy every last Jewish site and call it palestine. Moderate my ass. Only Israel HAS peace and is she 'moderate?" Not according to losing Muslims who must leave Israel, the land belongs to the 12 Tribes of Israel not Ishmael.
