I just pointed out that those Jewish kids aren't good/effective street fighters or the Arab kid would have been dead. That's a fact for sure, totally objective.<br /><br />Jewish Laws do mandate killing those trying to destroy us. It's a Milchemet Mitzvah, commanded war. Saul lost his kingship because he didn't kill all of the Amaleks including their king. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_did_God_lose_favor_with_King_Saul<br /><br />Don't rewrite the Bible.<br /><br />Those kids shouldn't have attacked the Arabs, but the media and politicians shouldn't have made it into a "lynch" case.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-4574341543170847242012-08-27T02:23:05.925+03:002012-08-27T02:23:05.925+03:00Wow, this was incredibly offensive. I completely a...Wow, this was incredibly offensive. I completely agree with you - lynch is a word that has a very specific cultural context and does not apply here. Lets call it what it was - a racially motivated mob beating. 40 or 50 Jewish youths beat one Arab teenager and you're upset they didn't kick him hard enough? He was in a coma. He likely would have died if not for a few true heroes at the scene who attempted to help him. <br />Violence, against anyone, is never acceptable. Have we really sunk that low that we're justifying (as much as you'd like to claim you're not) violence by saying "well, they do it to." And the firebombing of a car full of Palestinians - for which 12 and 13 year olds were arrested - that was just a few drunk teenagers having a good time, right?<br />And you're mad at Peres? I'm no rabbi, but I'm quite sure Jewish law does include a mandate to not kill. Anybody else?<br />"We Jews in Israel, as individuals and as a state are constantly under attack... to survive, we must get real."<br />To survive, we must hold ourselves to the highest possible standard. We must never raise children who find physical violence against others acceptable, or even heroic. Although, reading this post, it seems easier to understand how children like that can grown up in this country, with parents unable to teach them simple right from wrong.Amynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-68931064059652141652012-08-23T05:24:22.268+03:002012-08-23T05:24:22.268+03:00I agree with all of you.

Too many teenagers wandering around with little to do. Some parents have formed groups to go out and supervise the kids, but there should be youth clubs and other activities provided to harness that youthful energy in the correct way.LondonMalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07799282503749852272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-12320054060364049022012-08-22T09:16:21.963+03:002012-08-22T09:16:21.963+03:00@Batya - Thanks for clarifying the facts for me.

Now I understand that the only "lynch" that went on was the Pathetic President's character assassination of all Jews with his craven kowtowing.<br /><br /><i>@GoyisheRebbe</i> - He would have to become Jewish before he could do <i>Teshuva</i>.

All the Jewish breast-beating and liberal guilt in the world won't eliminate the Arab hatred of the Jews.<br /><br />And when Israeli leaders bash the Jews for being "racist" you gotta wonder whether maybe they really do believe Israel is a country somewhere in Europe.NormanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13617524186967828711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-2208824267019554302012-08-22T08:40:35.225+03:002012-08-22T08:40:35.225+03:00Once again the world disingenuously refuses to rec...Once again the world disingenuously refuses to recognize the obvious. So what else is new? That is dog bites man and hence not news. I hope we get a better president after Peres.
