61. Cabinet Decision
Sam Morcowitz ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (07.27.06)
What could anyone expect from 7 impotent members of the Cabinet. Not one has the "balls" to make a decision. And this is what the country looks like.
62. Batzim lacking
(07.27.06)
Where are the Defense Minister's Batzim? In his mouth? For crying out loud, you have a green light and you fiddle faddle away precious time? Hit them way harder, pound them before entering, and get more troops deployed who can get the job done. You are rejecting the sage advice of the IDF command. Wake up Peretz!
63. INTERNATIONAL LAW, INTERNATIONAL OPINION
Arik Silverman ,   Milwaukee USA   (07.27.06)
Whether turning villages into "sand boxes" is legal or illegal I can't say. But I can definitely tell everyone that turning villages or sections of cities into "sand boxes" is harming Israel's image. The only reason there isn't more outcry is that those who control the news media in some countries, such as the US, suppress the worst pictures. WILL ISRAEL EXIST 100 YEARS FROM NOW? That's the question almost nobody seems to be asking. Certainly it is unacceptable to have rockets raining down on Israeli civilians, but why hasn't Israel tried negotiating with its opponents for the last six years? Israel always gives the excuse "no peace partner." Increasingly it seems that what Israel wants is not a genuine peace partner, but a Quisling who will surrender before Israel talks. THE WORLD IS NOT BEING FOOLED -- AT LEAST THE WORLD OUTSIDE THE US IS NOT BEING FOOLED.
64. Get it over with
Beverly ,   Toronto   (07.27.06)
Isreael is fooling itself if it thinks there will be better support from the world if they don't increase the number of troops or do more extensive bombings. They should be burning these villages from which katushas are fired to the ground using air fire and spare the lives of the army.
65. Israeli war strategy
Highly Concerned ,   Nürnberg, Germany   (07.28.06)
I am very concerned about Israeli strategy in Lebanon. Of course, Israel has the right to defend themselves against Hizbollah. But the current bloodshed appears out of proportion: Is it really Israels strategy to expel any civilian population from all of south Lebanon and render that part of the country uninhabitable? (I refer to the use of sub-ammunitions that practically leave the country mined with unexploded material, the destruction of whole villages after warnings to the inhabitants and the massive destruction of infrastructure here.) How safe can Lebanese civilian bystanders like women and children be when even UN-soldiers with prime diplomatic contacts to the Israeli Army become victims of Israels bombardements?

68. Israel is Cowards...
Rana ,   Kuwait, Kuwait   (07.31.06)
Do you believe that using planes to kill CHILDRED is courageous?!!!!! Your "soldiers" are attacking children in their own homes. Is it not enough that Israel took PALESTINE what more do you want? The Whole region? Your day will come, just hope I am alive to see it!!!
69. LIES
Saif ,   Egypt   (07.31.06)
Anyone can write anything on this site and no one knows the truth for Number 66 & 67 & all those pretending to be lebanese giving israel the "green light" to kill children that have NOTHING to do with Hizbullah I say at least be honest & decent!!!
70. Israel Started the war not hizballah
Carlos Fernandez ,   San Jose, USA   (07.31.06)
Stop hiding bihind your finger! Israel sarted it: 1- In early 2006, Israel hired spies to kill a lebanese person In Beirut suburb saying that he is Hizballah terrorist. 2- couple of months back they killed two palestinian in Saidon lebanon from the airplane. 3- They keeps on crossing Lebanese water and kidnapping fishermen from Tyre. or that doesn't count? 4- And remember that they've been in lebanon and never left since 1978( the first invation) and still ocuppied Shebaa farms. 5- if Israel traded all lebanese as they agreed upon back in 2004 hizballah wouldn't have crossed. they warned them many times before, but Israel did not take it seriously. so it's ok for lebanese to cross the border 1 time
71. To Ibrahim & the rest
Christine ,   Ashrafiyeh   (08.01.06)
Speechless of the inhumanity that you have. It is a shame to be in the 21 century and see ignorant people talking like you. First, I don’t believe that a Lebanese can say what this stupid Ibrahim is saying. Well if you are really a Lebanese I advice you to evacuate to Israel because people without a dignity should belong to them not us. And please don’t talk about Christian, talk about urself because simply all the Christian in Lebanon are with AL MOUKAWAMEH . For the Isreali people I want to tell you that your army is using the F16 to kill babies ( one day old baby was killed in Sour , oh I forgot she was using the katyousha to hit you!!!!!) They are using the F16 TO hit the infrastructure and red cross ( I forgot too that in the red cross car there was a katyousha who was targeting Haifa) , they hit also the Australian journalist ( who were also holding a katyousha) YOU SHOULD BE indeed ASHAME OF YOURSELF AND YOUR GOVERMENT. YOU REPRESENT THE TERRORIST GROUP Before 1948, Israel didn’t exist, your all came to Israel just for money. You stole a land and now you are pretending it is yours . what a pittyyy I advice you to go back to the countries you came from . Believe me every single kid who is looking at his family dieing in Lebanon will revenge from your nation one day. At the end I can assure you that God will not leave you without a punishment.
