Samir Kuntar - Hero or Child Murderer? watch!
youtube.com — Here is the unbelievable truth about Samir Kuntar. The man who is received as a hero today by Hezbollah is a cold blooded child murderer. Should Israel have released him? Judge for your self.

- gbudavid, on 07/16/2008, -5/+60I don't think Israel should release ant criminal. It is too small a country.
- flip2trip, on 07/16/2008, -5/+4Well it would have to be a small country if they have "ants" for criminals.
I'm sorry I could not resist.- dkapuchino, on 07/16/2008, -1/+4you should have resisted. That was one of the lamest jokes I've ever seen.
- flawless2c, on 07/17/2008, -15/+1We dont know for sure what happened that night in 1979.For sure a small child was killed,(possibly accidentally?!) but that doesnt make Qantar a psychopathic monster as portrayed by the Israeli media. He was a 16 year old kid in a war. At the time Israel was occupying parts of South Lebanon and hundreds of Lebanese children were being killed and maimed, so resistance was legitimate.
- HiCaP, on 07/17/2008, -0/+15So a father got shot in the back and a child had her head smashed, by accident.
Are you for real, or maybe that ***** is your Hero also. - Mesmorize, on 07/17/2008, -1/+10You are scum that is undeserving of life.
- bluto36, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2he has said how it went down.
he smashed the kids skull over and over and over and over until it was flat against the rocks. then he went and shot the father. he stated that he wanted the fathers last sight to be his daughters head getting smashed.
resistance was legitimate, really? - bluto36, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3sorry i had it wrong it was the other way around. he shot the dad in the back, then took him down the beach so he could drown him with his hands. all of this in front of the daughter so this would be her last sight. then he put her head on flat rocks and smashed her head with his rifle butt. did he stop when the girl stopped crying? no he kept smashing and smashing and smashing until the girls head was as flat as the rocks.
nice resistance you f*cking turd

- MediaSight, on 07/16/2008, -4/+65In a normal country he was sent to death.
- DrDreyfus, on 07/16/2008, -0/+17The only person ever civilly executed in Israel was Adolf Eichmann.
Israel values life unlike her enemies who don't give a ***** about humanity.
- DrDreyfus, on 07/16/2008, -0/+17The only person ever civilly executed in Israel was Adolf Eichmann.
- ironeus, on 08/01/2008, -2/+68He is a murderer. Anything he may have had against the government is not connected by any means to a 4 year old girl. Unfortunately Hezbollah's terror campaign of kidnapping soldiers works because it was led to the release of this monster.
- HanFastolfe, on 07/16/2008, -2/+65Since they are trading for the bodies of the dead, I would have made sure that it was an even swap. Hezbollah, and Hamas seem to be enjoy funerals, why disappoint them? There's not much use for someone like Samir Kuntar, on the day he is buried I hope the ground pukes him back up, sometimes we do ask too much from the earth.
The story of why he was held, by the mother of the 4 year old girl he killed:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename= ...- radiofrequency, on 07/17/2008, -0/+10Filthy animal. Bury him in a pigskin.
- BillE3, on 07/16/2008, -0/+59How can anyone call this inhumane animal a hero?
- Donald2007, on 07/17/2008, -1/+6They have different values then we do-- many Americans fail to realize that. They do celebrate some weird stuff:

- ramiro, on 07/16/2008, -1/+58I wished that I did not have to see these 2 words in the same sentence:
"hero"
"samir kuntar" - israeligirl, on 07/16/2008, -2/+62Just goes to show the different cultures, Israel is willing to pay a hefty price to bring back its boys, even when they are dead. On the other hand, Hezbollah celebrates this man's return as a hero, praising him for killing innocent children whose only crime was being Israeli. The entire Lebanese government will be waiting for him in Beirut - they have no shame.

- RawSense2004, on 07/17/2008, -2/+3I say, "That is because you have no guts!" Also, they are NOT boys, they are men. Please do not belittle them. (I know they are much younger than we are, but we must respect them. They deserve at that.)
There will be a day, I pray it soon, when they will demand that everyone in Israel is removed. Why do I pray this? Because kind-hearted people like you seem to think you are better than someone else just because you will not fight. DAGGONE IT, FIGHT! Get them off your back, off your land, and out of your face! They deserve to die, each and every member of a terrorist organization. I don't care what they call themselves, DIE!
Sorry if I'm very angry, but I am tired of this dance. Let's call it a night and go out into the parking lot...
- Argentian, on 07/16/2008, -0/+31THat's when Ike's GPS chip could come in handy.
- drz130, on 07/16/2008, -0/+55I was sickened when first reading that Israel was considering releasing Kuntar. Now there is a pit in my stomach, that this scum is being released. Israel needs to institute the death penalty for vermin like this. Shouldn't this qualify for the "crimes against humanity" exception?
- soulwarriorone, on 07/16/2008, -1/+36G-d will have the final say in this one..."Arise o Lord, and scatter your enemies"!
- Kent4jmj, on 07/16/2008, -0/+14Nice to see you around. God Bless.
- RawSense2004, on 07/17/2008, -0/+11And everyone said, AMEN.
I pray it will be soon... - frofisrael, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4Let us all pray that the the Lord of all the earth will do right. An angel struck down Herod and he was eaten alive by worms. May the Lord send an angel to do the same to this savage beast.
- Erythroxylum, on 07/16/2008, -6/+26Come off it. Which of you can honestly say you've never cracked open a 4-year-old's head with a rifle butt?
- PappyPapillon, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3+1 for excellent use of sarcasm.
- PappyPapillon, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3+1 for excellent use of sarcasm.
- SaladCactusKing, on 07/16/2008, -0/+47He's received a hero's welcome in Lebanon by the Prime Minister and Hezbollah. A National holiday was declared.
For the heroically brave act of cracking a four year old girl's skull against a rock, the people of Lebanon salute you.
Ugh. - ericjohnson0, on 07/16/2008, -1/+32Sure, lets make excuses for this creep and call him a hero. Killing an Israeli 4 year old. HERO!!!
Seriously, I say we Black Flag the creeps... - punx, on 07/16/2008, -2/+31I am hoping that this is just the prelude to a war so Israel can finally wipe Hezbollah out. There has to come a time in life where enough is enough. How many times are the Israeli's expected to bow their heads and continuously take this? What this filthy child killer needed before he left was was a quick shot of ricin. Welcome home!
- Rikety, on 07/16/2008, -1/+8Wipe out whatever needs wiping out...a clean sweep would help with the overpopulation problem in the area, too.
- neveroddoreven, on 07/17/2008, -11/+1So lets completely ignore the last time that Israel had major military actions in Lebanon (less than two years ago) and how big of a success it was for Israel. /sarcasm
It was a huge failure. Its hard to differentiate between the Lebanese government and Hezzbolah. Pretty much all of Beirut was leveled to the ground. Millions were displaced both Israeli's from rocket attacks and Lebanese from air strikes.- punx, on 07/17/2008, -1/+10Because as usual, the UN, pieces of ***** that they are, interfered where they didn't belong. Had Israel unleashed everything they had at Lebanon (which they should have), this wouldn't be a discussion. You would be bitching about how badly Israel had decimated Lebanon. Frankly, I hope it happens. I hope Israel gets tired of listening to whiny little bitches and just finishes it up. Enough already. Israel needs to cement its position in the Middle East as THE super power.
- michael43, on 07/16/2008, -1/+30That's the saddest story I've heard in a long time. I'm sure that piece of garbage has a special place reserved in hell. They should send him there as quickly as possible so he doesn't miss a day of his eternal reward.
- wpi97, on 07/16/2008, -2/+28" Samir Kuntar - Hero or Child Murderer?"
The answer is obvious: child murderer. - Rotzooi, on 07/16/2008, -15/+6This Samir Kuntar character sounds like your average Democrat.
- farmerjohn48pan, on 07/16/2008, -3/+6That might be going a little too far!
- HanFastolfe, on 07/16/2008, -1/+11He's a troll, don't feed him.
- franklymister, on 07/16/2008, -4/+11I believe you spelled your name wrong.
I think it's spelled T-R-O-L-L. - BECoole, on 07/17/2008, -2/+2Or an Obama associate like Bill Aires.
- farmerjohn48pan, on 07/16/2008, -3/+6That might be going a little too far!
- 140Suffolk, on 07/16/2008, -2/+25-Muslims Treat Killer Of Jew Child As Hero-
What a non-story. Did the Rolling Stones take drugs in the 60s? Does the bear poop in the woods?
Muslims ALWAYS treat the killers of Jews as heroes. - cjshamrock, on 07/16/2008, -10/+8***** you, terrorrizers!!
- flip2trip, on 07/16/2008, -6/+19Didn't Hezbollah endorse Obama? Oh wait, that was Hamas. Sorry, got my "murdering cowards" groups mixed up.
- franklymister, on 07/16/2008, -10/+7I'm pro-Israel and pro-Obama.
Quit trying to use the words of some murdering pigs in the middle east to further your own political agenda in the US, please.
Oh, and by the way, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz supports Obama, too. http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/rosnerBlog.jhtm ...
As does Ynet news, another leading Israeli site: http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3503068, ...- flip2trip, on 07/17/2008, -1/+10How am I furthering my own political agenda? Here on digg? LOL
By the way, you don't find it a little bit disconcerting that a terrorist group endorses your candidate? - PappyPapillon, on 07/17/2008, -1/+7Pro-Israel and Pro-Obama? Not sure how you reconcile that but +1 for having enough sense to support Israel's right to exist... a rare trait in a democrat.
- franklymister, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4flip2trip -
Why do I care what a bunch of animals think about anything? They could endorse Jesus Christ and it wouldn't change anything.
By that logic, wouldn't the troofers and the anti-semites on Digg be upset that Israeli newspapers are endorsing Obama?
At any rate, Hamas seems to hate Obama quite a bit, now: http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0608/Hamas_ ...
PS - PappyPapillon:
Before the Arab propaganda machine started infiltrating the left, liberals were against anti-semitism. It's sickening that there is this vein of so-called "liberals" who like to preach hate against Jews, but I'm not going to let them run me out of my own party, or change my beliefs. - flip2trip, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1"Why do I care what a bunch of animals think about anything? They could endorse Jesus Christ and it wouldn't change anything."-----franklymister
I think you just made my point, they wouldn't endorse Jesus because He doesn't believe in the same things they do. If they were supporting my candidate I would at least like some answers as to why. Also, as far as I know, Obama hasn't said anything against the endorsement. (I could be wrong, and if I am, I'll be happy to withdraw my statement)
- flip2trip, on 07/17/2008, -1/+10How am I furthering my own political agenda? Here on digg? LOL
- franklymister, on 07/16/2008, -10/+7I'm pro-Israel and pro-Obama.
- Koush, on 07/16/2008, -14/+2Sorry to change the pace, but this is kinda what happens when god is created.
- jabberwolf, on 07/16/2008, -1/+26"In the Gaza Strip, controlled by the violently anti-Israel Hamas group, people celebrated in the streets and handed out sweets in support of Hezbollah. " in other news.
This does not happen in Israel, but liberals seem to think that dealing with Palestinians is an easy job.
Lest they forget they also celebrated in the streets after 9/11 !!!- flawless2c, on 07/17/2008, -6/+2yes and Iranians were holding candles in Tehran. Yet that has not changed a thing.
- flawless2c, on 07/16/2008, -20/+3We dont know for sure what happened that night in 1979.For sure a small child was killed,(possibly accidentally?!) but that doesnt make Qantar a psychopathic monster as portrayed by the Israeli media. He was a 16 year old kid in a war. At the time Israel was occupying parts of South Lebanon and hundreds of Lebanese children were being killed and maimed, so resistance was legitimate.
- mustangmike53, on 07/17/2008, -1/+15Troll or Idiot?
I vote troll.- danielttt, on 07/17/2008, -0/+11Tough question....gonna go for idiot...
- HanFastolfe, on 07/17/2008, -0/+7Why choose? If the choice is troll, or idiot, my answer is: yes.
- punx, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2He is a troll, and my guess he is an Iranian looking at his profile and Diggs. I'm just shocked, aren't you? One muslim defending another, who is a child killer? After all, as long as it's a muslim committing the crime, it's ok to another muslim.
- dkapuchino, on 07/17/2008, -0/+16Yep. Same accident happens to me every time I finish shooting a girls father, and then I smash her skull with my gun.
We know EXACTLY what happened that night. There were witnesses, there was a trial, he was convicted.
Smashing a little girls skull does make you a psychopatchic monster, ESPECIALLY if you do this as an act of war.
You call this action "legitimate resistance"? You sick bastard. - Temlakos, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6What do you take us for? Trying to compare that little girl to Muhammad al-Dura, are you? We know the facts, and the facts say you lose each time.
- mustangmike53, on 07/17/2008, -1/+15Troll or Idiot?
- LOLPROFIT, on 07/17/2008, -0/+17Does Hezbolla refer to him as a child murdering hero because technically thats what he did to become famous?
- RawSense2004, on 07/17/2008, -0/+19NO, absolutely not. The one rule Israel USED to have was that no one with Irsaeli blood on their hands was to be freed. Olmart, you are a cowardly politician who cares more about your own job than you do the people you promised to serve. I say, "Have a confidence vote RIGHT NOW."
Why is it each time some politician gets into legal trouble, they start making deals with the enemy? When are we going to learn? Are we going to learn? Dear God, pray for us!- frofisrael, on 07/17/2008, -0/+5They should swap Olmert for Gilad Shalit. BTW, why is there no mention of Gilad Shalit. Have they murdered him. Have my prayers been to no avail?
- redheadguy719, on 07/17/2008, -13/+1you know who a real hero is? Hiro, from heroes. THAT's a hero.
- HammondOrgan, on 08/21/2008, -0/+0cmon, nobody gets this office reference? lame...
- philodygmn, on 07/17/2008, -1/+9How is Israel getting a free pass for putting the lives of potential future victims beneath two of their dead soldiers' bodies?!
- dkapuchino, on 07/17/2008, -0/+10And the future victims of vile murderers like Kuntar.
- DreadPirate, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6Philodygmn - until yesterday they did not for sure if those soldiers were dead or alive. This would be a different situation if Helbolla had actually kept the soldiers alive, rather than killing them shortly after their capture.
- tjex, on 07/17/2008, -0/+11Great, like we really need to give hizbullah a reason to celebrate. It's bad for Lebanon, Israel and the world
- BECoole, on 07/17/2008, -1/+8Samir Kuntar is the best argument for the death penalty.
If he had gotten what he deserved, he would not have been a bargaining chip, those Israeli boys would not have been kidnapped, and the Israel-Lebanon war would not have occurred. - BillE3, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6Celebrating a man that crushes the head of a 4 year old child with the butt of a rifle against a rock is wrong in any culture, I do not care who they are. It is wrong and it is very, very sick.
- Christinewjc, on 07/17/2008, -0/+7It just absolutely sickens me that Israel released this murderer and let several other terrorists go. As someone here mentioned, it shows Hell-bollah that kidnapping Israeli soldiers works and eventually, gets these awful terrorists released. The two Israeli soldiers were killed in their custody and returned dead... while 5 Hell-bollah terrorists were returned alive? What is wrong with this picture??? Awful!!!!
- farmerjohn48pan, on 07/17/2008, -0/+5You've got it all wrong! We just need to open up a dialog with him and find some common ground! If we could just talk to him and figure out why he hates us so much we could fix OUR problem and appease him and maybe he will like us then! Change you can believe in!........Or we could do the right thing and hasten his journey to God with a bullet.

Both parties need more people who stick by their convictions instead of simply towing the party line . We may be on opposite sides of the aisle politically but more power to you brother. - MacBigot, on 07/17/2008, -0/+5My advice? Don't stand near Kuntar next time he starts his car.
- SaladCactusKing, on 07/18/2008, -0/+3why hasnt this hit the front page yet?
- MoniqueMoniCat, on 07/18/2008, -0/+4israel traded a live murderer for the body of a dead citizen?
looks like mental illness, apathy, and cowardice has spread from liberal America to liberal Israel. they really need new leadership over there. i remember when israel had balls. i think america used to too. too much PROGRAMMING on TV and radio.
where have all the cowboys gone? - webguylive0com, on 07/18/2008, -4/+0what about the murder of hundreds of thousands of babies & children in iraq, afghanistan, palestine etc. by US / Isarel occupation & weapons of mass destruction?
- Kazuya89, on 07/25/2008, -2/+0I can't believe this. These guys will give +50 diggs for someone who says Kuntar's a child murderer, something Kuntar has repeatedly said was not true and blamed the IDF for (he claims they (accidentally) killed her and her father while they were shooting at him and his group, and that he was only trying to use them as hostages in order to escape). As far as I'm concerned, no side is to be believed, for both have had their infinite shares of lies. His side of the story may very well be true for all we know, so condemning him may not be very wise. But when someone mentions the one thing that's definitely true, the "murder of hundreds of thousands of babies & children in iraq, afghanistan, palestine etc. by US / Isarel occupation & weapons of mass destruction", people give him negative diggs? Wtf is wrong with you immoral pieces of ____? I applaud you webguylive0com.
- MaheshNayak, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1But they released a child murderer right.He is out there in his country enjoying........More action from Israeli government would be ........
- SuperVepr308, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2I was really shocked that the Israelis decided to do this. I am not going to second guess their decision but I can say that my way would have been alot different. Anyway, I hope they keep fighting the good fight.
- frofisrael, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1I regret this comment. Olmert is a selfish fool but no one deserves to be at the mercy of the merciless Hamas. May the Lord forgive me.
- 7sons, on 07/19/2008, -1/+0If we are not vigilant we may soon see animals like this on our shores. They are already here, just hiding under some skirts and strollers.
