Breaking: Bodies of 3 Kidnapped Israeli Teens Found
At around 12:30 EST today, we received the devastating news that the bodies of the three kidnapped Israeli teens – Eyal Yifrach, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Frankel, 16 – were found by soldiers of the IDF in Chalchul, a Palestinian town about 1km north of Chevron. All three were killed by their captors, r”l.
The teens’ bodies were reportedly found buried together in one grave; it is yet unclear at what point after their capture they were murdered.
Heavy fighting is being reported as well between Israeli soldiers and Palestinian terrorists in the area where the teens’ bodies were found.
The three teenagers, students of Yeshivas Mekor Chaim in the Gush Etzion area south of Jerusalem, which is led by Rabbi Adin Even Yisroel-Steinsaltz, were abducted two and a half weeks ago while trying to hitch a ride near Chevron.
An extensive manhunt was launched by the Israeli Defense Force in the wake of their disappearance, as Jews and non-Jews all over the world rallied to their cause, with the hashtag #BringBackOurBoys trending on Twitter and other social media.
The Israeli government has laid the blame for their capture at the feet of Hamas, an internationally recognized Terrorist entity that rules the Gaza Strip and has recently signed a unity deal with the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank.
This is a developing news story. We will update it with more information as it becomes available.

Fault lies totally in the Israeli Gov’t, Israeli police, The superiors in the Israeli army.
Who gave them Gaza?
G-D does his part!!!
Thousands of missilles falling in open fields.
If Israel would start killing out the Arab prisioners, instead of letting them go, yesterday,
They would start backing off, and the world would have a little respect for us.
G-D should have Rachmanus on Am Yisroel, and reveal MOSHIACH now.

Israelis must strive to be better than their enemies. The death penalty is reserve solely for Nazis. All others are imprisoned. This includes murderers and rapists.
Just because you can take the life of a killer does not mean you should.
Also, I would argue that while they did release Arab prisoners, I doubt that the IDF was not keeping a very close watch on where they are. that is why they were able to make so many arrests of Hamas members the day after the 3 were reported kidnapped.
If we start killing them, the supporters we have may start switching and seeing us as oppressors instead of defending ourselves.
Killing your enemy in battle is one thing (and useless because you cannot interrogate him and get information), killing your prisoner is quite another; it should not, and is not, practiced in Israel.
Ezra
“random name,” we live according to the Torah, not according to what our oppressors think. You say that “just because you can take the life of a killer does not mean you should,” yet the Torah states “mos yumas harotzeiach” – a murderer is to be put to death. And that is how it should be, in any civilized society.

Every time the Arabs do this let us flood Israel with another million Jews who will move there.

I Can Believe it!!!!!

Once again Bibi has more Jewish blood on his hands.

This was not Bibi.
Sad as it is, this is 3 boys that hitchhiked when they shouldn’t in an area known to be dangerous.
I’m not saying it’s the teens fault entirely,
I’m saying it was in no way Bibi’s fault.
with the trend of teens hitchhiking in these areas instead of taking the bus, in areas like chevron which are very close to Palestinian territories, this was bound to happen.
When I was younger I hitched with my cousins all the time in Haifa and other areas of Israel. Looking back, I was very stupid for doing so and am amazed nothing happened to me.

Reply for "sick sick sick!!!!!"
You can’t say this is the world, this is a specific group called Hamas.
Sick is correct
This is the world. most people sit in their little corner and hide from the world. Some of us are out there in the world all the time. The world acts and thinks like this.

Am Yisroel Chai!
I’ve been praying to G-d to do his will, whatever it may be. His choice. But they are gone. After all this searching. It’s miserably sad. I’m beyond words or in any place to say anything, but, G-d has them. They are in Hashimim. Those monsters will be brought to justice. As if they don’t have anything better to do than kidnap children for being Jewish. Ridiculous. They’ll be brought down just like every other who has gone against G-d’s people. But the greatest nation is still standing! Am Yisroel Chai!!!!!!!!!!
MOSHIACH NOW
this is crazy ….. MOSHIACH…. WHERE ARE U ALREADY!!!!!!??????!!!!!!!??????

Peace??
How much longer?
How much longer is this dark and dreary Golus? How much longer till Moshiach gets here? How much longer will it take for the Israeli government to realize that you dare not make “peace” with the blasted ugly cruel Palestinians/Hamas/whatever people who are just out to destroy us r”l.
Yiddalach shreit Ad Mosai! Moshiach Immediately Now!!!

Peace plans?
With murderers?

They were not trying to hitchhike near Chevron. Their bodies were found near Hevron. They were trying to catch a ride at Tzomet Ha Gush, near Kfar Etzion.
random name
Does not matter where they were trying to hitchhike. They should not have been hitchhike at all.
it is a dangerous practice that is too common in Israel, and sadly this was bound to happen.
I hitch hiked all the time when I was younger in Israel and when I look back I can’t believe how stupid I was for doing so. The buses are cheap now, they were even cheaper then.
I’m very lucky that nothing ever happened to me.
It is very sad what happened to these three boys, but the lesson still has not been learned because I still hear of teens in Israel continuing to hitchhike even after this occurred.

How can the fault not lie with Hamas????

Blessed is the True Judge. May Hashem comfort their families. And their murderers should be swiftly brought to justice.

What good is blaming the government, police, etc….
This is not a time to blame, this is a time to unite as one nation. Hashem should bring comfort to the families of Eyal, Gilad, and Naftali. May he avenge their blood and may the savages be brought quickly to justice.

NEWS FLASH: The world does not rotate around Chabad.
This tragic destruction of 3 worlds is a tisha b’Av felt by ALL of klal yisroel.
It isn’t a “private message” to chassidim or any segment of klal yisroel to whom Gimmel Tamuz is just the Third Day of Tammuz.

You do not belong on a Chaad site. Go back to Lakewood or Ponevitch or whatever swamp you come from.

#8, A long time ago the Rebbe warned that if you gave into them and exchanged land for peace, you would lose the land and gain no peace or rest!!!!
Now, Obama and Kerry in an effort to salvage peace want Israel to commit self suicide. and Obama wants to send aid to the Syrian rebels–whose track record with the terrorist organizations is well documented. And, then there is ISIS Heaven help Israel and the world if they prevail.
Maybe we shld kill 10000000 Arabs for each Jewish person killed
