In eulogizing his father, Hai's 16-year-old son Eliyahu urged mourners not to consider seeking revenge for the attack. "The difference between us and them is that we are people, Jews, holy," he said.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Did he really utter this crap?
Additionally, I find it interesting how they keep repeating that the shot rabi is a father of seven every time. I don't remember ever reading about the murdered Palestinians being fathers, ever..
Whatever his reason, asking that revenge NOT be taken for the killing is a good thing.

ReplyDeleteThat's pure PR! "We the Jews do not take revenge" makes me feel like vomitting..The ratio for revenge by the Israeli Jews is hundred to one and everybody knows that!!! That this hypocrite stands up to show how "holy" he is or his people are is just for the gallery inside and outside!!PUKE! Besides he must know the execution of 6 Palestinianm has already taken place in cold blood.
Hypocrites and masters of deception and deceit!!!
I can't stand those people anymore..That's way beyond anything a human can take!! This double-faced deceitful manoeuvres as a way of life is nauseating and driving people to the edge of sanity!
ReplyDeleteI think the funeral was on Friday and the assassinations were on Saturday?
ReplyDeletePR? Phony? Perhaps you are right. They feel they can say these noble things because they know the IDF is going to retaliate anyway.
But killing the settler was wrong and strategically a dumb thing to do.
ReplyDelete<span>they know the IDF is going to retaliate anyway.</span>
ReplyDelete-------------
When did they leave anything to the IDF to retaliate? Their very actions on a daily basis,are meant to exact maximum damage to the indigenous population and drive them to leave. The IDF is only an official tool which works in concert with the very raison d'etre of the colonist barbaric hords..
Wrong from which point of view? Morally or strategically? From the later you're right, it can only make things worse. As for the former I'm not so sure.
ReplyDeleteWas this colonist rabi an innocent civilian? I doubt it.
ReplyDelete<span>Meanwhile, the topic stirring the most comment among Israel's unconditional supporters in the U.S. is Hannah Rosenthal having the nerve to criticize Michael Oren for criticizing J Street!</span>
ReplyDeleteWrong from any point of view just as it is wrong for a settler to kill a Palestinian. Very bad for Nablus. The people were beginning to enjoy some measure of a normal life.

I beg to disagree and I'm not going to be hypocritical or beat around the bush. My feeling, in view of this unprecedented level of deception and deceit practiced here pushing chutzpah to an unprecedented height, the earth and humanity at large are far better off WITHOUT this noxious colonist crap around..No tears shed here that's for sure.</span>
Well there you go. This is a perfect opportunity for you and your countrymen to watch the scum at work. As far as I'm concerned, I've seen enough of similar stuff to fill hundred lives if I coulkd afford them...No one has any idea or concept of the type of people the region is up against here!! The perfect lying machine in the garb of the ultimate victim as a disguise.....

I'm sure you're "holy" but are you any good from a human and a humane prspective you lying piece of dogshit?
It puzzles me to think that a son of a rabi is not aware of the old testament's 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth' edict .Not to mention that his ilk have invented a new concept of revenge, thousand times more vicious and nauseating, the "price tag"..Which mean if their army does something they disagree with they exact "revenge' on someone else who has nothing to do with it, the Palestinians!</span>
<span> "Jews don't take revenge"...my derriere!
</span>
The headline of the article quotes the rabbi's son as saying, "Revenge is not for Jews", although this direct quote isn't given in the article, it's only paraphrased. In fact, except for the quote that implies Palestinians are not people, every single quote is from some politician suggesting ways to collectively punish Palestinians. And I'm sure you can guess the preferred method of punishment: expand the settlements and impose more restrictions on Palestinians' freedom of movement. How convenient.
ReplyDeleteThe conundrum for the Palestinians now is damned if you do something and damned if you don't...
ReplyDeleteDiabolic!!
I love how you base this on a conversation with one palestinian couple without ever having been to the WB. It's far from normal.
ReplyDeletei think that's what they think.
ReplyDeletebut i think maybe the most effective option is the the bds movement. i think most palestinians are weary of violence and feel it's futile. anyway, at least i hope they go the non-violent route.
btw, tgia, vza doesn't give a shit about the murders. it's obvious from her response here and down below.
ReplyDeletei mean to express no outrage and say it's stupid reveals someone completely impervious to palesitnian suffering.
i mean this is why she can look at ornate mud brick buildings in gaza and say "beautiful!" without saying anything at all about the tragedy and absurdity of the situation.
ReplyDeleteand look at all the attention for one jewish life?
ReplyDeletewhat about the palesstinian killed at a checkpoint this summer? noone knew why. didn't get any of THIS coverage, and he at least was on his own land.
Oh my, I could see this one coming a couple of days ago. Your usual M.O. Why on earth should you care what I do or do not express? Who made you arbiter of what must be expressed? And I love the appeal to Tgia....just like in high school rivalries. Good lord. You choose to make this personal. I do not. Enjoy.
ReplyDeletei'm just reacting to your "expressions" on the irrelevance of arab lives. i'm just expressing, like you, vza.
ReplyDeleteand tgia seemed upset at your comments without realizing it.
<span>What enrages me most is this self righteousness those Israelis seem to adopt at every occasion. That they kill wholesale is never questioned but when one of their scum is killed the other becomes a lesser human..This to me is mind bggling. I would like an answer to this question which is torturing my mind! WHAT TYPE OF "HUMANS" ARE THOSE PEOPLE? WHERE AND HOW DID THEY BREED TO BE SO NASTY? HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE SO UTTERLY WICKED, DECEPTIVE, AND CRUEL? SO LACKING IN EMPATHY, IT'S UNIMAGINABLE!!</span>
ReplyDelete<span> I'm not finding any answer to that!
</span>
fanaticism and racism.
ReplyDeleteTgia has never had any problem expressing his feelings to me about any of my comments, so I suggest you leave him out of it when you have a problem with my comments or lack there of. Or you can appeal to him to ban me, too. If you just want a little club of a few people in total agreement, so be it. If Tgia asked, I would leave.
ReplyDeleteAnd for the record, I have expressed my outrage over Israel's actions and even when I was ignorant of the duplicity of Israel's propaganda, I never supported the settlers. EVER.
