sounds like isreal leadership
62. Air Defence missiles
Mikal ,   Kenya   (06.29.06)
Well buzzing in the presidents palace suggests that the Syrian Air defence system is outdated. Maybe Russia should go ahead an sell the Syrians an advanced air defence system that should sort out them out I believe.

what would you do without the united states on your side
64. we should eliminate these people
john ,   washington, usa   (06.29.06)
No doubt the area has been troubled since 1948. No doubt that in 67 and 73 Israel was attacked by forces that, had they succeeded, would have engaged in serious genocide. For 30 years, the occupants of the West Bank have no hope and no citizenship. In the same situation, many citizens of the Jewish state would behave in exactly the same manner as the Palestinian militants. It is interesting that these refugees were not the perpetrators of the invasions. These folks have been caught in the middle for 30 years. In the same week that IDF missles miss and kill 13 citizens, several of them being little children, there is much outrage about a soldier being kidnapped. I say SHAME. Shame on Israel for acting for years as a bully. Sharon had the right idea. There will be no peace until the occupied territories are prosperous and free of Israel. And what about the economic pressure applied to the territories, all because Hamas won't make a stupid ideological statement that no on will care about. Shame on Hamas for not capitulating and putting its citizens at risk. Shame on Fatah for being too corrupt to leave in power. Shame on the US for supporting Israel in all of this activity. Especially the crippling of the territories by withholding currency. This is such a destructive act. The symbolism of the statement required by Hamas will be lost on the real militants. Shame on the arab neighbors of Israel who started all of this 30 years ago and now do NOTHING. I am saddened for the residents of the territories and Israel. Now the IDF is arresting members of the Palestinian Assembly - a powerless organization thanks to the very policies Israel has intiated. What is next for the IDF? Isolation in Gitmo style concentration camps?
65. Jews threaten Syria
Hasan ,   South Lebanon   (06.29.06)
wait for Hizbollah you stupid dogs
66. Assad
Trex ,   Seattle, WA   (06.29.06)
Assad is a terrorist funding bastard and dog. Too bad they didn't drop a bomb on his palace, it would save alot of lives in the long run.
67. Response to #7
Edan ,   Beer Sheva   (06.29.06)
Not true. The Syrian army is many times bigger than ours (although definitely not as well-trained). They are no joke. Did you know that there are Syrian missiles aimed at every square meter on the Golan..? Never underestimate the enemy.
68. Syria is incompetent...
Dazed and Confused ,   Austalia   (06.29.06)
Though america took a direct hit on the pentagon the centre for all of its military might, and its so convenient to start call this an inside job .. wow .. the hypocrisy is outrageous in this forum .. I wouldnt want to even gues the amount of blood america has spilled in the middle east over the last 20 years or so not withstanding the arms supplied by america to various factions to fight and kill eachother .. I am horrified at your blood lust and lack of concern for the innocent victims that will account for more than 80% at a guess of all those wounded, killed dismembered and the children left homeless foodless and shelterless from such carnage.. stop and think before you start typing your rants .. please .. just think for one second before you click Submit !!!!!
69. Stockholm Syndrome Israelis
me ,   there   (06.29.06)
You guys are a perfect example of the Stockholm Syndrome.
70. Syria: Israel made big mistake
Marijonas Vilkelis ,   Australia   (06.29.06)
What audacity! Israel steals and pillages everything it calls Israel. Then it gets retaliation which it calls terrorism. It kills, captures, incacerates, tortures, mames and abuses thousands of defenders and those on the sideline. One Israeli-state-authorised-terrorist (maybe 'gangster' is more appropriate) gets taken captive and all hell is threatened to break loose. Well, well you know that when all is said and done, justice and truth will prevail. Maybe Israel should start taking care of its butt beforehand. Accountability will be taken to the absolute threshold.
71. Jacob, I and many Americans support Israel...
Michael ,   USA   (06.29.06)
Please do not allow an uninformed opinion from a few discourage you. Israel and America stand together against terrorist. I'm glad to see the gloves come off. The time is coming for the Terrorist, the Rogue states and Murdering Hack Dictators to pay the piper. This is long overdue. If Syria, Iran or any other country should rise up - they know full well the capabilities planted in the heart of the beast of babylon. Dare they make such a grievous mistake to attack Israel yet again in partnership together - the full blunt of not just Israeli might, but also American superior fire power will knock these little feifdoms back to the days of camels and moon god worship in Mecca. enuf is enuf.... live by the sword - prepare to die by a laser guided missile delivered smack dab right into the heart of your Al Jazeera blabbering propaganda TV! We've all been patient. We've given money, medicine, healthcare, food, clothing, shelter, time, blood and sacrifice. I've had it with these despots of destruction. They truly have no idea what power they're unleashing by their actions. In less than 50 years Israel has given more to the world in patents, medical breakthrus, technology and aid than all the Islamic countries combined and by far more than most countries in the world. They are world leaders in science, 3rd in patents of bio-tech, 3rd in NASDAQ listings behind only USA and Canada. This tiny little slip of land is creating wealth, health and prosperity not just for themselves, but for the world. While evil dictators in Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, et al., oppress their own people, teach them to hate the world and brainwash them daily to murder, torture, and harras anyone different than their own twisted worldviews. People like Amy need to wake up! Open her eyes and read valid sources. America and Israel do not Cause the worlds problems - WE SOLVE THEM! Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
72. #52
CJ ,   Denver, USA   (06.29.06)
Jane, although I didn't agree with the "Amy" poster myself, your mentality scares me. I hope you represent a small percentage of Israelis.
73. #27 Wow, true colors are showing
CJ ,   Denver, USA   (06.29.06)
"can surely do without the measly 3.1 billion dollars in aid package and all the pressures and arm twisting tactics that this entails." I wish we would withdraw the aid then. Jeeze, I came here to show my support to Israel.

78. russian air defences
larry hardin ,   wlizabethton carter   (07.05.06)
what has russia sold to syria? don,t know. Its verified their kill ratio on the west best by russias 4th gen anti-air is over 80%, If that would have been over Moscow there would be 2 dead F-15,s or whatever they were. Besides syria has 40 "sunburn" nukes pointed at Isreal.
79. israel syria/war?
jack ,   aust   (09.08.07)
Its a shame they all cant live in peace and it will never happen while syria supports the terroist regimes and backs assasinations like it does ,they would do well to leave israel alone i think as i dont think they realise how potent these new weapons israel have are ,someone who saw a test said just the small ones left a hole 1km long and a hundred ft deep and thats just the small one if they bring out the thermo bombs they will be decimated ! the trouble seems to be over there that no one can tell the truth and everyone is backstabbing everyone else and then denying it .even israel cannot be trusted i dont think they pass on info on usa weapons to the chinese and did sink that ship of the usa in very suspect circumstances /the agreement was israel stop bombing lebanon and hezzbolla disarm ,well hezbolla rearmed and israel stopped /i mean who is the united nations security council working for here ??and thats the trouble no one sticks to any deals especially the arabs so it is all doomed im afraid /the arabs started the war in 67 from what i can make out are they bad loosers? or are they still in shock that they lost? how can united nations make decisions when russia and china who have veto and are supplying weapons to the terroist regimes??thats crazy to sday the least and thats why it will never be fixed !
