Unemployed African refugees turning Tel Aviv beaches into high crime spots
Haaretz ^ | 5-2-12 | Yaniv Kubovich

Police say small groups composed of up to five refugees roam the beach looking for easy pickings. Young lovers or teens in the water are the preferred targets, but the main goal is to find a bag or something else lying around that is easy to grab and then sell at the city's Central Bus Station.

Police describe the gangs' activities as follows: they begin by surveying the beach. The moment one of the thieves spots a likely item, he signals his buddies. Then the group strolls toward the promenade to plan the theft.

I think they should be more sensitive and try to understand their culture.

I don’t understand. Blacks only cause these problems in America, not in every other country where they exist.

Shirley this article is racist.

Those are ‘tribes’ or ‘packs’, not ‘groups’. The term ‘men’ is an affront to mankind.

A major problem in combating the phenomenon is the fact that it is almost impossible to punish the thieves, either because of language limitations or lack of identification means.

"Forty lashes, less one" seems like a start, and it's got precedent.

“A major problem in combating the phenomenon is the fact that it is almost impossible to punish the thieves, either because of language limitations or lack of identification means. By the next day, those arrested are often back on the beach.”

Just cane them, like the American kid in Singapore several years back, and they’ll learn real fast not to do it again.

Refugees committing crimes in their host country are no longer refugees but common criminals.

Deport them immediately.

OK, instead of a Bait Car, how about a Bait bag? Preferably containing a small explosive device to be activated by remote control...

Baloney....they need to understand the culture , rules etc. of the country they've infiltrated...or be deported. If they commit a crime they need to be sent back to their country. It's really that simple.
