Israeli rabbi says hang Palestinian children from trees
haaretz.com — The Israeli chief rabbi of the city of Safad says Israel should hang the children of Palestinian terrorists from trees and carry out other acts of "revenge." If a Muslim said such a horrible thing it would be all over CNN and the US would probably have sent a Predator drone to kill the man.

- MarkusGarvey, on 03/27/2008, -6/+24This guy is a Rabbi?...chief Rabbi of Safad?...this is the Zionist version of "No child left behind "?...the rabbis statement is just plain demented....no wonder there are rocket attacks!..
- neocognitism, on 03/27/2008, -9/+22I would really like some of the Ziontology crew to come in here and defend him. They may invent some sort of moral or situational double standard not yet known to man, earning them the noble prize in sophistry.
- MarkusGarvey, on 03/27/2008, -9/+18is that the sound of....crickets?......they must be busy hanging Palestinian orphans
- hadees, on 03/27/2008, -11/+8Unlike you I don't feel the need to defend crazy radicals although I will say he was talking specifically about Yeshiva shooter's children but that doesn't make it any better.
- Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -7/+10Probably didn't stop you from downmodding every critical comment on this page though, did it hadees?
- hadees, on 03/27/2008, -7/+7When you ASSUME, it makes an ASS of U and ME.
- Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -7/+9Ugh, enough with the asinine clichés already! If you were more original with your retorts, perhaps I wouldn't feel so confident in my abilities to presume your routine, numpty. Besides, had you not done as I have suggested, it would have been totally out of character for you and your fellow trolls. You're called the bury brigade for a reason, you know?
- hadees, on 03/27/2008, -7/+8Aren't you laying it on a bit thick? Face the fact I didn't defend this ***** so you have to invent reasons to hate me because you have tunnel vision (and a poor knowledge of US citizenship laws).
Oh and I did bury this comment because it is asinine and has nothing to do with this story. - Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -6/+5Oh come now, that was me trying to be FRIENDLY ;-) As for hating you, that's a bit strong. However, having had the fortune of reading some of the more derogatory remarks you have made to my fellow 'Goyim', I can't help but take an interest in questioning your attempts at being objectively unbiased.
You also accuse me of: "having tunnel vision"; and "a poor understanding of US citizenship laws". The former is a joke, I presume? After all, a renowned Zionist (for digg anyway) accusing someone else of dogmatism is hypocrisy on a cosmic level. As for the latter, I must assume you are referring to the first amendment. Either that, or a subtle attempt at accusing me of being racist. Yes, you are entitled to speak your mind, and no I am not racist.
Despite the fact that I am not a citizen of the USA, I feel reasonably assured that even my limited knowledge of your county's constitution would reflect badly on the level of knowledge of most of your countrymen.
Having said all of that, I apologise if I have offended your sensibilities, petal. I thought they bred 'em tougher in the Lone Star State.

- neocognitism, on 03/28/2008, -5/+7Which crazy radicals have I defended? Obama?
You defended that Shas MP who talked about a new Shoah.
And I'm glad you won't defend him. I notice yonoz and foobutt have appeared, hmm....- hadees, on 03/28/2008, -5/+5Hamas, Rocket99, etc. And I didn't defend the MP i pointed out that shoah doesn't mean holocaust even though Shoah is slang for The Holocaust.
- neocognitism, on 03/29/2008, -5/+5Oh, you mean anyone you define as the "enemy?" Why not just call Rocket99 a terrorist too then you could have just said "defend terrorists."
Yes you did defend the guy, and it does mean holocaust, but you're welcome to shovel that lie that makes you look stupid my way any time you feel the need.
- neocognitism, on 03/29/2008, -5/+5Oh, you mean anyone you define as the "enemy?" Why not just call Rocket99 a terrorist too then you could have just said "defend terrorists."

- SuperMoses, on 03/27/2008, -6/+23This is insane. If a muslim had said this it would have been on the front page of digg by now.
- neocognitism, on 03/27/2008, -6/+20and the front page of the NYTimes, LATimes, Washington Post, CNN, etc...
- TrevaLVF, on 03/28/2008, -1/+4FOX shills would have worn themselves out by making sure they outdid the shills at CNN with capitalizing on it like a broken record.
- MarkusGarvey, on 03/27/2008, -5/+18the comment thread at haaretz on this story is pretty interesting...if you haven't already, check it out...
- neocognitism, on 03/27/2008, -6/+22I just realized that this rabbi has basically issued a fatwah.
The religion of peace indeed. - Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -6/+20And purged from upcoming in 5,4,3...
- Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -5/+12Hmm, three people have just downmodded me, despite the fact that my prediction proved to be true. You crazy ziontologists just can't stand to be seen as the hypocritical fools that you clearly are, can you?
- cageybee, on 03/27/2008, -8/+19zionists are terrorists
- Carthagefield, on 03/27/2008, -5/+13I am most impressed by how the Zionist bury brigade have tried to bury every critical comment on this story, without even bothering to futilely attempt to justify their objections (or for that matter, the uber-rational Rabbi Eliyahu, who claims to speak for them). It seems that the celebrated Semitic wit and irreverence has eluded you all today.
- americangoy, on 03/27/2008, -3/+12Well, obviously this is not news on USA TV because it puts Israel and far right LIKUD Jews in a negative light.
- urik88, on 03/27/2008, -0/+12***** religious zealot.
- omegaredIX, on 03/27/2008, -3/+10Wow I can not believe he said that. Are palestinians even real people in his eyes?
- ad33lshahid, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1CLEARLY they are not
Israel has been all about creating a "pure" land of Jews and noone else. Israel has always resorted to using inconceivable means to make the lives of the Palestinians a living hell so as to trigger an exodus.
"It must be clear that there is no room in the country for both peoples... If the Arabs leave it, the country will become wide and spacious for us...The only solution is a Land of Israel, at least a western land of Israel, without Arabs. There is no room here for compromises...There is no way but to transfer the Arabs from here to the neighboring countries, to transfer all of them, save perhaps for Bethlehem, Nazareth and the old Jerusalem. Not one village must be left, not one tribe...For this goal funds will be found...And only after this transfer will the country be able to absorb millions of our brothers and the Jewish problem will cease to exist. There is no other solution." - Ben-Gurion
"The formula for the parameters of unilateral solution are: To maximize the number of Jews; minimize the number of Palestinians; not to withdraw to the 1967 border and not to divide Jerusalem." - Ehud Olmert, 5 December 2003
"We walked outside, Ben-gurion accompanying us. Allon repeated his question, 'What is to be done with the Palestinian population?' Ben-Gurion waved his hand in a gesture which said 'Drive them out!'" - Yitzhak Rabin, 23 October 1979
"Every reader has some idea of the early history of other countries which have been settled. I suggest that he recall all known instances. If he should attempt to seek but one instance of a country settled with the consent of those born there he will not succeed. The inhabitants (no matter whether they are civilized or savages) have always put up a stubborn fight." - Vladimir Jabotinsky (founder of Likud Party) in "The Iron Wall: We and the Arabs"
If you want to get a clearer understanding of whats really going on here, pick up President Carters book "Palestine: Peace not apartheid" or Ilan Pappe's book "The ethnic cleansing of palestine"-- written by a jewish israeli professor that currently teaches in israel.
- ad33lshahid, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1CLEARLY they are not
- ssonia213, on 03/27/2008, -9/+3yes yes, but lets be honest, sending all this missiles in Israel against civilians..don't do no good for the Palestinians.Plus, I red that they kill there own people...Sad
- TrevaLVF, on 03/28/2008, -2/+5Hatred so blinds the eyes of the soul it rots that it brings out the savage beast in its host.
- EnigmaOX, on 03/28/2008, -4/+1I don't see Pro-Israeli .. Where are they ?
- funklor, on 04/07/2008, -1/+0For every Israeli civilian killed, Israel kills a terrorist and a host of civilians as dispensable collateral. How much blood does this Nazi need?
