This is anti-terrorism, anti-suicide bomber, anti-murderer training...no matter how many times the Hate-Israel crowd yells "human rights." The real "human right" at issue here is that of innocent people having the right not to be blown up in a Pizzeria or on a bus!

The right of innocent people having the right not to be blown up in a Pizzeria, or on a bus, or in their own home or fields. The sad thing is, you seem to define 'real person' to exclude anyone who speaks Arabic as their mother tongue? How can you be so antisemitic. The blood of arabic-speakers flows just as red as our own.

This is utter racism, imagine if the US police stopped only black people to train there dogs to search for drugs, the World would go crazy! It's the same thing but on a much worse scale. Israel has to stop its racism!

05 0 0"Confiscated" vehicles

Would that the number of vehicles confiscated from Arabs by the IDF would being to compensate for the thousands and thousands of Israeli vehicle stolen each year by Arabs from Judea and Samaria. Indeed, in all likelihood these confiscated vehicles probably once belonged to honest Israelis.

Stealing cars from settlers in the West Bank is nothing compared to the theft of Palestinian land. Those who steal land have no right to complain.

Who wants a smelly dog crawling in their car? These soldiers should be ashamed of themselves. This behavior reminds me of images I remember seeing in WWII movies.

Its training for the dogs, but its training for the purpose of the job itself.. its basically like a person finishing his undergrad and going to an internship... they use the dogs to search for weapons that were maybe once placed in the car and then taken out etc.

disrupting people for the sake of training dogs? american and European police dogs are trained without disrupting Palestinians and the dogs still end up getting their training.

Arnold, actually there was an explosion in Italy only some 14 days ago, Breivik leveled parts of Oslo less than a year ago and I am definitely missing some more. When was the last explosion in Israel???
