31. shut the lights off in beirut
Josh ,   NYC   (11.21.05)
a few days in the dark to think about border control...
32. to Ali, Jews are home again and will never leave again
David Landman ,   Natick, USA   (11.21.05)
We are home after being forced out by Roman, Christian, Arab occupation. Ali, you think you are patient? You are just occupiers of Jewish land. We have been here for 3,500 years and will still be here when you are long gone.
33. To adina kutnicki
Barak   (11.21.05)
We dont need american permission to act. We do so in our own time in our own way. You americans favour intense fighting. We dont have that option. There are non-combatants in the way. So we do it quitely. Kill one or two top morons here. Capture three or four top morons there. We dont need your permission thank you. Shalom
34. To ali
MJ West ,   Philly, PA   (11.21.05)
We've waited 2000 years...more patient than you generic arab mooks. You ancient one's have been around since way back in 1968. Suck it
35. BBC censorship
CJ ,   UK   (11.21.05)
As of 2030hrs UTC (7 hours after these attacks began) BBC broadcasting had not let the british public in on this story. However, their website gives some clue about how they are planning to twist the story to favour the terrorist, with this introduction to the: "Israeli troops have killed three Hezbollah fighters during a guerrilla attack near the Lebanese border, which also left several Israelis wounded." Well there's objective reporting for you.... I don't think.
36. well said david 32.

37. Wow! Y-Net u censored my comments with the subject "Perhaps"
(11.21.05)
cool, I take that as a good sign and will go right ahead and presume that I must been very close to the truth. In that Great! I suppose I will just have to wait and see and read about it on Y-net just like the rest of the readers! ;-)
38. ISRAEL'S RETREAT FROM LEBANON IGNITED THE SECOND INTIFADA
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (11.21.05)
Israel's retreat from Lebanon as a result of U.S. pressure was a tragedy for Lebanon's Christians. Nasrallah's observation on the retreat was that Israel was as weak as a spiders web. Israel's retreat ignited the second intifada. THE PEACE PROCESS ACTIVELY SEEKS TO DESTROY ISRAEL'S SECURITY ENSURING ISRAEL'S DEFEAT Islamofascists fight never-ending religious war. The goal of global jihad is the domination and subjugation of every non-Muslim on earth. Shooting attacks. Stabbings. Bombs planted. Bombs thrown. Molotov cocktails and firebombs thrown. Stonings. Rocket and mortar attacks. Murderer/suicide bombers. Every single one of the Palestinian Authority's security services are involved in terrorist attacks against Israel. A May 2003 Pew Global Attitudes opinion poll: 80% of Palestinians agreed with the statement: "The rights and needs of the Palestinian people cannot be taken care of as long as the State of Israel exists." 80% of “Palestinians” want Israel destroyed! Highly pressured by the U.S. the ABNORMAL response of Israeli leaders to non-stop jihad waged against Israel's Jews is to greatly EMPOWER the jihad giving jihadists their own international terror state - Hamastan - with its own seaport and airport - the largest terror base in the Middle East - ENDANGERING THE ENTIRE WORLD.
39. Linda is right
MARK ,   USA   (11.21.05)
The United States asks Israel to use restraint. Never. Israel has done what the US wants and look how many terror attacks have happened. The U.S. uses no restraint on Al-Qaeda but asks Israel to do that. Never Never Ever What kind of friend is that? It is asking for Israeli's to stay in bomb-shelters and get bombed and do nothing. Never!
40. History!
(11.21.05)
since 1973, Israel lost 1973 war (leaving Sinai), then in 1994 accepted a peace agreement after failing to stop the 1987 Intifada. During the eighties, it got into Lebanon (Beirut) and had to retract to the south. In 2000, Israel left South Lebanon too. Now, in 2005, Israel left Gaza. I am not quite sure about the direction of Israel expansion!! needs to be reminded to go forward, not backward if i understand the postings in this forum!!
41. Very very VERY Bad move....
Ramzi Sfeir ,   Bethlehem,Palestine   (11.21.05)
Hizbullah always has the Wrong moves at the Wrong moments...at a time that israel is going through a Huge change that might be the Final Solution to the Conflict in the middle east....But its not in hizballah's interest to see a peaceful solution to the problem with israel! I condemn every little attack against anyone, but i must say that if israel attacks lebanon tonight, its tottally justified, we cant deny that Hizballah asked for it! This has nothing to do with the Palestinians...and they are not allowed to use our name in order to justify their attack...maybe they have an Occupation problem of a few hundreds of lands...but its not by WAR that they will get it! Not because israel is strong, but because the rules of the Game CHANGED! War doenst help anyone! I believe that one day all the arab nations will live in peace with israel, separated by undisputed international borders! I'm sure that this day is close to us! But extremists from all sides MUST DISAPPEAR! ....From all sides Including israel! Extremists create extremists! END I SAY NOW!!! Enough blood and Tears! BACK TO THE NEGOTIATION TABLE! Back to the Negotiations about a Final solution! A MAJORITY WANTS TO LIVE IN PEACE! and majority decides.... Israeli Voters, VOTE PERETZ!
42. Israel: Pay no attention to what the US asks
MARK ,   USA   (11.21.05)
If we keep doing what the United States says Israel will be destroyed. The United States wants this because it is trying to make Israel weaker and weaker.. Instead of all at once like the PLO wants the U.S. is allowing destruction in stages. We gave up the Sinai,Gaza Strip, holy sites, towns in the West Bank. We did not do it at once. We have done it in stages willingly. That is suicidal.There will be no Israel and Israel is following this deadly "Road Map" to destruction willingly. Do not listen to the U.S. State Department. They hate Israel. It is the U.S.we hate Israel department.
43. Mark is right! Israel - Don't commit national suicide!
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (11.22.05)
It is very terrible that our American leaders are anti-Israel. The American people love Israel. We want Israel to survive! We want a strong Israel! Israel is totally trustworthy. An extremely loyal ally of the U.S. As Mark said, Israel: Pay no attention to what the U.S. asks.

This problem will have to be dealt by Lebanese people? No s*&^%. But don’t hold your breath. They won't do a thing. Not until the roofs start falling on their heads after Israeli bombardments. But then, that is unlikely to happen, as well. Our press, and Democrats daily bemoan our casualties in Iraq which are 2000 dead and many wounded; not small casualties, but we’re a nation of almost 300 million people. Israeli press and politicians take their casualties lightly and there’re 5, 6 million Jews in Israel. Maybe Israeli public should demand very public funerals and stage some sit-ins in front of PM’s residence, until he answers some questions, like why doesn’t he give Lebanon 2 choice: doing away with Hezbollah or else, he will do away with Lebanon, from the air, the way NATO a/k/a/ USA and UK did with Belgrade, Novy Sad and the rest of Serbia, for much less of the reason.
45. Adina, as usual, you've got it right.
AK   (11.22.05)
46. Ali, you want Galilee so you can turn Hula back into swamp?
AK   (11.22.05)
47. Barak, if you don't need permission, don't sit on your hands
AK   (11.22.05)
48. Re:Ozy#28
Peggi ,   Fr   (11.22.05)
Hey baby, U are the one who spells patient incorrectly. U need an E course to develop ur skill baby. U'll see who is the patient, the owner of the land OR the theive, I'll leave the answer to U.
49. Ramzi
AK   (11.22.05)
And what exactly is the "Final Solution" that you envision, I am almost afraid to ask? I wonder if you realize the meaning of your words, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
50. AK
(11.22.05)
1. Adina got it wrong 2. Hula has been turned back into a swamp by the Israelis -- we did it because we figured out that we had caused ecological damage when we dried it up. 3. before insulting others take your own advice and sit on your hands for at least five minutes that way your brain will have enough time to send the correct and polite message to your finger tips! have a nice day!
51. U.S. TO ISRAEL: RESTRAINT, RETREAT, SURRENDER
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (11.22.05)
U.S. instructions to Israel in the art of war: Make your people jobless and homeless for your enemies. Give your enemies your land and assets. Abandon all your security measures. RESTRAINT RETREAT SURRENDER Israel, STOP LISTENING TO THE VOICES THAT WILL BRING ABOUT YOUR TOTAL DEFEAT! Listen to tapes of Winston Churchill's speeches. Churchill said: "We will fight in the hills. We will fight in the streets. We will NEVER surrender!
52. destroy or build
alan ,   usa   (11.22.05)
It would be nice to hear an arab conversation about building school systems, educational programs, fielding sports teams, symphony orchestras ans sewer systems instead of the conversation of destroying Israel, well, we can can always pray!!!
53. Reply to Ringo
Ash ,   USA   (11.22.05)
Do you think this will restrain us from fighting the occupation? You will be wrong!! Israel for almost 17 yrs bombed and used all sorts of advanced weapons and what was the result? They withdrew from Lebanon in 24 hours....Let them visit us if they dare!! I know they won't with all the missiles spread on the border.....So Ringo instead of sending messages from the US, I dare you to go and fight....
54. to #47 Adina
Barak   (11.22.05)
We are not sitting on our hands. Mofaz has ok'ed airstrikes and there are raids involving some sayerot going on as well. All the same, G-d bless America. You are the only ones who are really our friends, even if we disagree sometimes. Shalom Haverah
55. AK it was the Republican members of Congress...
(11.22.05)
who realizing the mess in Iraq the Republican Bush administration has created who publically asked President Bush to start the withdrawal from Iraq. see another example of your need to sit on your hands for a few minutes in order to allow your brain to think things through.
56. go burn some more cars in france
to peggy #48   (11.22.05)
57. AK.... You are sooo superficial and full of hate...
Ramzi Sfeir ,   Bethlehem, Palestine   (11.22.05)
well AK ...The Words " Final" and " Solution" are normal words that have nothing to do with the Nazi final Solution! I know very very well what my words mean and i was talking about a Final solution for the CONFLICT! Sometimes you should read Around the words you dont like...The meaning of my post is CLEAR ENOUGH! I want a FINAL SOLUTION to the conflict! whether you like it or not! This is the expression i will use because i dont find it WRONG! There is nothing wrong with saying "a Final Solution".... learn how to Read and Understand! By the way... Stop bad mouthing people because you dont have the Same Vision as them....If you want WAR...i will not stop you, But i will not FIGHT with you! Thats why i am calling for a Final Solution to the conflict! I WILL NOT FIGHT VIOLENTLY! Unlike you apparently...i have seen enough blood and tears! I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH MISERY! Enough!!!!!! now GROW UP!
58. Ramzi -- stop raving and answer my question.
AK   (11.22.05)
What is the Final Solution (the use of caps is yours) to the conflict that you seek? Please answer. I didn't insult you, just asked you a question after your use of those very loaded words that do have a very specific meaning; it is you who is insulting me, while still evading your explanation as to what you mean exactly by "Final Solution." I gave you a benefit of a doubt that you are not aware of the meaning of that phrase “Final Solution”, yet, your answer clearly indicates that you do, yet you still choose to use it in the context of the Israeli-Arab conflict. Curious chose of words. Now, stop your ravings and histrionics and spell out the terms of your "Final Solution" for all of us here to see.
59. Republicans?
55   (11.22.05)
One ? Get real, Kennedy and Pelosi are not Republicans. And even not all Democrats support withdrawal from Iraq. So forget about US getting out of Iraq before the "job" is finished.
60. #50, struck a nerve, didn't I
AK   (11.22.05)
Hula is not a swamp, I saw it with my own eyes, last summer. Drove right through it, through all those orchards. Didn’t get stuck in a swamp. I also saw the lovely little Metula, whose houses are now being bombed. I also saw Lebanese villages, I saw Syrian villages, from a distance of cause, and Israeli Arab villages, what a huge difference. Am I being impolite? What's wrong with me. How do I dare, little dhimmi that I am, to speak up to a master race.
