2. How starange nobody shot Yishai Schlissel
Yogev ,   Tel Aviv   (03.13.16)
How strange nobody shot and "neutralized" Yishai Schlissel the ultra orthodox knife wielding terrorist who stabbed and murdered a young 16 year old Jewish girl and seriously wounded 6 others at the Jerusalem pride event last year. I see the usual double standards still applies
3. Slippery Slope
EM ,   Ra'ANANA   (03.13.16)
One more slide down the slippery slope of 'purity of arms' 'most MORAL army' etc. Pretty soon the esteemed Rabbi will condone cutting off the hand of theives, stoning for adultory. WELCOME to the dark ages.
4. Since murder charges constantly dropped against Arab stabbrs
TAB   (03.13.16)
the Chief Rabbi's words only makes sense. Dozens of Arab terrorists attacking Israelis are released by court so that Arab anger not be aroused. So it only makes sense that these terrorists me eliminated for good.
5. Never mind religious mumbo, it's common (non-liberal)sense!

6. Chief Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef is stating the obvious
C   (03.13.16)
in an armed military conflict, tzahal et al have the obligation to kill the enemy before the enemy can kiill israeli soldiers. however, the rabbi recognises the situation where the enemy has already been incapacitated in which case he must be captured and taken prisoner. these two rules are part of international customary laws of war and in no way paculiar.
