1. Jews should leave Hebron
Alexander Scheiner ,   Israel   (09.04.15)
400 Jews living with about 200'000 palestinian Arabs? No way, Jews should get out from Hebron. Its now an Arab City and Jews have other places to live, in the Galil or in the south of Israel. By the way, I am a Zionist!
2. "Police didn't believe them" sounds awfully familiar...

3. OUTSIDER Is needed to shake up and

properly rebuild the police which overall is awful.
4. Just wait a second.....

Imagine that some non-English speaking Arab tourists took a wrong turn and ended up in some burned out, desolate, gang-infested section of Chicago or Detroit and a dozen gang members approached their car. If they called the police, what might happen? Probably nothing. The tourists might end up robbed and their car stolen. The only difference here is that when someone gets lost in 'Palestine,' they run the real risk of being murdered in the most gruesome way. So as bad as the worst sections of America are, lost tourists will escape with their lives. Not so in the great future state of 'Palestine,' where lives of non-Muslims are very cheap. Lesson: when calling the police, you'd better be able to SPEAK THEIR LANGUAGE. We can just thank heaven that the Arab man who took these tourists into this his house was close, otherwise we'd be having funerals tomorrow. As another poster said, this Arab who saved the lives of these tourists should be the PA's next president: his actions speak louder than anything Abbas has done in the last decade. Isn't it interesting that the would-be murderers were young men while the man who saved the tourists was an older gentlemen? Now we see what Abbas's years of incitement, warped schooling, and TV brainwashing has done to the younger generation. Abbas should be charged with crimes against humanity. The gentleman who saved these tourists should get the Nobel Peace Prize: he risked his life; he certainly earned it more than Obama did his. One who saves a single life is as if he has saved the whole world. This man is a hero in every sense of the word. Let's see if the Arab media praises or condemns him for his actions.
5. Police failure
Ed Stack ,   Jerusalem   (09.05.15)
The reasons for a new face as police commissioner continue to mount.
6. the Yeshiva Bachorim did what?
sally forth ,   Jerusalem   (09.05.15)
1. the Yeshiva Bachorim spoke ONLY english? say what?! really now? I have NEVER met a bocher who doesn't speak Hebrew...often they speak Hebrew like a rusty nail...but they speak Hebrew. 2. the Yeshiva Bachorim drove their own car into the Palestinian side of Hebron?! Really? Knowing Hebron as I do I wonder how they did that....why with all those road blocks and signs telling you not to go there how ever did they manage to accidentally drive into the other side of Hebron? 3. the Palestinian Muslim who rescued them suggested they call the ISRAELI POLICE? that's the third strike! and they are OUT...this is a totally fabricated story...what for it and we'll see how and why these 5 criminals did this. (and yes they should be charged with illegally crossing into the Palestinian Authority)
7. Israeli English
David ,   Haifa   (09.05.15)
Some (not all) Israeli's need to improve their Engish skills...
8. #1, Arabs should leave Hebron
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (09.06.15)
We are Jews, we have no other place to go, this is our land. Six million died while the nations did nothing. This is our home. The Arabs have sixty countries that are Muslim, let them leave if they can not tolerate seeing Jews. Force them to leave if they refuse to live in peace. I am a Jew. I am left alive from the 6 million who died in Europe, This is my only home.
