[b]A number of Jewish suspects have been arrested over the murder of Palestinian 16-year-old Mohammad Abu Khdair, whose death sparked days of violent protests.[/b]
Israeli police told the BBC that the teenager, abducted on Wednesday morning and found dead hours later, was killed "because of his nationality".
He had reportedly been burnt to death.
Earlier, the bodies of three murdered Israeli students were found. Mohammad Abu Khdair's family believe he was murdered in revenge.
Israel's Shin Bet security agency issued a brief statement confirming the arrests, and said the suspects were being questioned at one of their facilities.
"In the wake of intelligence and operational information, the Israel Police and the ISA (Shin Bet) this morning arrested several Jewish suspects regarding the 2 July abduction and murder of Mohammad Abu Khdair," the statement said.
The agency did not comment on any possible motive for the killing, saying details of the case were subject to a judicial gag order.
Several Israeli media outlets have reported that one of the six suspects has confessed to the killing.
The reports also claimed that the individual had given police information about the other suspects, but this has not yet been confirmed by officials.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would respond to the killings "with a firm hand".
"We do not differentiate between the terrorists," he said. "We will not allow extremists from wherever they come to ignite the region and shed more blood."[/quote]

Glad to see Israel taking action.

Damn right.
Good to see that they're taking action. Now to see to what extend they'll do so.

Still waiting on the PM to call those 6 Jews, "animals" and have their families' homes destroyed. I suspect he reserves that kind of rhetoric and action only for Arabs.

I wonder if that means Israel will raze the homes of the perpetrators and their families.

I heard an echo :v:

Probably because the fact that ethnically-exclusively razing the homes of Arabs' and their families is a major pressing concern
[QUOTE=Starpluck;45311559]Probably because ethnically-raving razing homes of Arabs and their families is major pressing concern.[/QUOTE]
Not to mention the different rhetoric he applied on the Arab and Jewish attackers exposes his poorly veiled bigotry. He called the Arab attackers, "animals" because he wanted to dehumanize Palestinians and Arabs as whole. He won't be doing the same for the Jewish attackers.

When an Arab commits a abduction:
"They are savage animals! Racist? It is not racist because they are the ones that acted like subhuman savages."
When a Jew commits an abduction followed by live-immolation:
"[URL="http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/02/world/meast/mideast-tensions/"]We are still assessing whether this was a nationalistic act or simple crime[/URL]. We urge responsibility to calm this unnecessary rhetoric"

Of course some Israelis would be angry at the abduction. Do you not think the Palestinians are making the same comments about the recent abduction and murder of one of their teens? People get angry, idiotic people make idiotic comments.

You're missing our point entirely, we're referring to the rhetoric the prime minister of Israel used.

He didn't apply the same rhetoric on the Jewish attackers, lets see him call the Jews who killed Mohammed, "animals".. (He won't)
sounds like antisemitism to me...........

[quote] Mr Netanyahu said the three were "kidnapped and murdered in cold blood by animals" [/quote]
"Animal" is interchangeably used in place of "subhuman" or "savage" It is the same shit when referring to a human as an 'animal'
Prime minister Netanyahu called the boy's father.

That's a nice gesture. And in a similar rhetoric to PM Netanyahu's earlier statements.

Since this is of your concerns.
Update- three of the suspects confessed and recreated the act

Not the same, that was only a phone call to the family. He needs to step up to the world and publicly call those Jews, "animals", the same as he did for the Arab attackers. Then he needs to raze the homes of their families. Let's see some consistency
