1. Palestinian women attack
mat ,   uk   (11.23.15)
now if this was the other way attack by Israeli it will make big news abroad but stubbing Israelis by Palestinians is getting normal like Muslims killing other Muslims
2. and the government is doing what?????
tiki ,   belgium   (11.23.15)
3. Epic fail! She stabbed an 82 year of Palestinian woman
Talula ,   Tel Aviv   (11.23.15)
Pity it wasn't later found out to be a relative of this piece of s**t!
4. So, an 80 year pal woman was attacked by pal teens
(11.23.15)
call it 'divine justice.' Too bad about the old lady, pal or not she didn't deserve this attack by mindless idiot brats. Abortion for pals sounds better than this mess....
5. #2 Silly. It's not the govt. The PM is nothing but a puppet
Stop blaming govt ,   Blame Supreme Court   (11.23.15)
It's the radical Left self-appointed Supreme Court who should be blamed for the attacks. These self-appointed judges have more mercy for terrorists than for citizens.
6. What's with the western clothing - short skirts? jeans?
Talula ,   Tel Aviv   (11.23.15)
That's very unIslamic of them.
7. Our responses
Maggie M ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.23.15)
Couldn't two adult male security guards have rugby-tackled these two teenaged girl would-be terrorists and pinned them down until they could be arrested? Did we have to fire 20-30 automatic rifle bullets at them? I was at the scene - about 150 metres away - and am very grateful that security forces arrived quickly and protected the Arab workers and passers-by in the area from the reactions of the crowd. Our reactions need to be more measured than those I witnessed this morning. I was ashamed at the glee and hysteria -- as well as the picture-taking mania -- that was displayed by many onlookers this morning.
8. And the UN ONLY condemns Israel.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (11.23.15)
Like some sort of bad acid trip.
9. I feel sorry for the scratched chair.
Moishe ,   Golutsk   (11.23.15)
What a shame to use perfect piece of furniture on this garbage.
10. Hey, Maggie #7
(11.23.15)
If you were 2 meters away from these "would-be" terrorists instead of "150 metes", you would be singing different song and parsing the guy with the gun who put these garbage out of their misery.
11.  I think these kids should not be returned to their parents
Veronique ,   israel   (11.23.15)
Obviously, these kids are getting the wrong education. They should be removed from their parents care.
12. question for Maggie
Truth ,   Middle America   (11.23.15)
how did you come up with your "20-30 automatic rifle bullets" description? the videos in this article don't show anything close to what you describe. next time you tackle a crazy weapon wielding person and get stabbed yourself let us know how it goes.
13. Israel has to stop seeking world approval.
Michael   (11.23.15)
14. Q:When we reach the "Paris 130" will we tell our citizens to
(11.23.15)
stay indoors& away from windows?! Is THAT the secret plan of our "Rightist" govt???!!!!!!!!!!!! As someone has said: what a pity we don't have the Buji-party at the helm; they'd feel obliged (by the public protests) to enter the viper's nest and start the clean up long time ago!
15. Accurate neutralizatiom
Paul Godfrey ,   United Kingdom   (11.23.15)
Couldn't accurately neutralise a 14 year old girl With a gun without killing her?
16. PA and Hamas continue to incite in Ramallah Gaza and Beirut
(11.23.15)
The continued killing is the responsibility of the organisations which praise and incite the intifada of the knife,the intifada of rockets, the intifada of rammings, and the intifada of bombs. It's time the government took action against those who direct at arms length this murderous campaign which will backfire on others eventually.
17. Why cover the faces Let the entire world see the animal face
Juliana   (11.23.15)
faces they have.
18. In answer to your question
Maggie M ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.24.15)
You ask how I came up with 20-30 bullets fired, and why it doesn't seem to jive with the security film. It's a legitimate question. This is how I calculated the shots I heard: I heard two bursts of automatic gun fire, which were confirmed by the two adult males I was standing beside. The first burst was long and nourished. It would have been about 12-15 bullets, in the characteristic automatic weapon pattern. The second burst was shorter, only 5-8 bullets fired, as far as I can remember. My two companions, who like me have done their military service here, agree with my approximate count: between 20 and 30 bullets fired from an automatic weapon. I still maintain that the two young teenagers could have been seized physically and stopped without having to resort to shooting them.
19. No parsing people, please
Maggie M ,   Jerusalem Israel   (11.24.15)
You might want to turn off your automatic spell checker... No, I'm sorry, I wouldn't be 'singing a different song'. No person, from whatever side or creed they are, is 'garbage'. Judaism teaches the intrinsic value of every human life, and we would do well, even in moments of panic and fear, not to forget our values.
20. Yael Eckstein of the IFCJ said she avoids Hwy 443 in favor
Rivkah   (11.24.15)
of a more scenic hilly route to Jerusalem that passes by little towns where she has relatives living. She was on Hwy 1, that scenic route going to Jerusalem when the soldier was killed on Hwy 443. Myself, I thought Hwy 443 would be safer but today I was wrong. Glad Yael is still alive and wasn't the one attacked.
