2. They were not yeshiva students..
Those were Peace Now activists - proving once more that no Jewish values are sacred to them.

3. Obama's Kotel note lead was a campaign PR stunt.

4. A Setup?
Take the yeshiva student in to his rabbi. have him swear on the Torah that he was not put up to this as a way of sanctifying the holy words of the Democrat Messiah.
It would hardly surprise me, considering the depth of behavior to which the campaign would stoop to legitimize the suspect Christian spirituality of Barack Hussein Obama.
After canceling his visit to meet injured troops in the US hospital in Landstuhl, Germany on the same overseas junket because his cameraman was refused permission to photograph the visit, making it into a campaign media event , would it surprise anyone Obama would mine the visit to the Wailing Wall for its publicity value?

5. why police are interested
They only care because it could have been an observant Jew that took the note! If it were anyone else, they would have let him go. Plus, the police LOOOVE Obama because he stands for everything that is against the Land of Israel.

6. The media is responsible
....published the following day by Israeli daily 'Maariv.'
This is the source of the problem; the fact that someone will pay money for invasion of privacy. We are all voyeurs to some extent, but those who make money by providing the infrastructure are responsible. It's the same problem with paparazzi.
...threatened by the youth's actions...
This shows precisely how the media is exempt from any accountability in the public eye.
The youth is a youth, they tend to do stupid things, and what would be the extent of damage if only he had read the note. Its publication is the real damage.

7. So the police can act without a complaint being made
If the police are able to act without a complaint being made, then why for heaven's sake can't they intervene when children are potentially in danger in family situations without waiting for a family member to formally complain?
There seems to be something quite wrong in the priorities that the police set for what they are prepared to deal with and what they prefer to sweep under the carpet.

8. #1 Obama wished his family the best in his note.
The note had nothing written about the elections!

9. I'm not surprised. SHAME ON YOU!
Rather eye-opening when a yeshiva student does such a low thing at such a holy site. He knew darn well what he was doing and should be shun from that place. Now the nations will think low of us! SHAME!!!

10. #8
That's the point. He wanted the world to "see" what a terrific, pure, loving guy he is. He doesn't want them to SEE that he is ill equipped and not cooked enough to be President of anywhere.

14. #8 Obama prayed for "Me, Me, Me"
Yes, there was one sentence about his family. The rest of the prayer was
"Protect ME..., forgive ME..., help ME..., give ME..., make ME...." Obama is a narcissist who thinks he is so hot, he wrote his first autobiography while still in college, had the "audacity" to put his name on a fake Presidential Seal and erected a styrofoam Greek temple in a football stadium so his mindless followers could worship him as he spoke. He had the "audacity" to turn the Western Wall into a campaign photo-op by passing out posters with his picture in front of Judaism's holiest site.

17. obama's note--grow up!
What a bunch of infants you journalists are! Who cares what obama wrote! If he didn't want it read he shouldn't have put it there in front of reporters. Why don't you spend your energies on the destruction of your country which all the media in Israel are encouraging and abetting. You guys ought to change your name to Pravda or Izvestia, that's more truthful! Shame on you (only pseudo papers like you have no shame).

18. Obama mocks Holy Jewish Site
Obama mocks the Western Wall, A holy site to all Jews. You do not put a note in the wall, then publish that note. Also, it's an abomination for someone anti Israel like obama to be allowed to visit the wall. What is obama going to do if he visits Israel again? Urinate on the top of Masada. I am deeply offended at how obama mocks Judaism. But, what can you expect from someone who surrounds himself with people like farrakhan, jeremiah wright, jimmy carter and brezinski.

19. Have they nothing else to do?
It seems with all of the crappy politicians running amok in Israel, the police investigators could do more than investigate a simpleton who read Obama's note.
Big Deal, Looks like another case of the Israeli's trying to show the world how big they are in protecting the non-Jew while ignoring their own real problems

21. Protection of sites
The kid was an idiot to take it. So now we are protecting sites. Go figure. Har Habayit is being bulldozed, Beit Lechem and Chevron have been turned over to idolaters. Sounds like another political trick to give that poor religious man Barak Hussein Obama a boost in opinion poles. I'm sure this is the first time this has happened. lol
