1. How do you know Abebe?
Brad ,   USA   (10.19.15)
How do you know he was "angrily" attacked? All you "know" is that he was attacked, and that's all you know. But now you take occasion to inject racism into it. Do you think the dead guy was innocent because of the color of his skin? By the way, I saw that same picture used before in an article of an Israeli soldier murdered by a Muslim believer. Is that where you got that picture from?
2. Seriously? ARE YOU SERIOUS?
Gracey ,   Tel Aviv   (10.19.15)
"imagine the mother of the poor Eritrean, who underwent an exhausting journey to reach Israel" - Yet, in the cold light of day - the reality is he probably snuck over the border illegally. It's terrible and tragic what happened to him, really it is. But, at the same time, in this sad moment, lets also not forget that we haven't taken kindly to them crossing our borders and hanging around the streets. But still, even having said that, he really didn't deserve it. He did NOT!
3. Life is a death sentence
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (10.19.15)
He should have stayed home and taken his chances there.
4. then should have returned or not come here

5. illegals
shoshie ,   Lud   (10.19.15)
he didn't belong here anyway. send the rest away.
6. So now we'll make it into Eritrean Shoah, no less?? As
(10.19.15)
unfortunately unnecessary as it was, it can only be regarded as collateral damage. What about mothers of the "doctors without borders" that got annihilated by American bombs? If anyone should be made responsible for the unbearable sense of frustration & blind hate on our part, they are our "impotents without borders" at Knesset! Again: it's not meant as excuse for that unbecoming behavior of the mob at the terminal.
7. Guess what?
Daniel   (10.19.15)
Regardless of why he's in Israel.............Refugees you were & so you will be one day.
8. The security officer from Central Bus Station
Michael   (10.20.15)
If it's true that the security officer is not going to be prosecuted we should be very worried.He acted very unprofessionaly shooting against an unarmed civilian. That poor guy was scared as ++++ running in four...WHY he shoot him?? 1)He did not had a weapon 2)He wasn't posing a danger to the life of ANYONE. 3)He was not making a threatening gesture. He must be fired an made an example of what we are not looking in a security guard. And the people who hit him when he was lying on the floor,what the ++++ is wrong with you?where are you from?from syria?? We should ALL do some serious introspection about this.
9. drink the soup with a fork ..end

10. sad, but accidents happen
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (10.20.15)
It is very unfortunate, but I can understand the feelings of the Israelis who have been involved in a terror attack lashing out thinking that he was a terrorist. Sad...
11. It‘s sick! Why would anyone want to live there?
Indi ,   London, UK   (10.21.15)
12. #11 Heard same about London
Deb ,   USA   (10.22.15)
They say the streets now resemble Somalia.
