61. To the people of Lebanon
Lynx ,   USA   (07.28.06)
If there is a Hizbullah fighter anywhere near you, get the hell away from them or you will be killed too. If you die from Isreals actions its your own damn fault.
62. Easy solution
Ali ,   Beirut   (07.28.06)
Since 2000, Hizbollah has not launched any missile attacks against your slimy settlements!! You want your HELL to stop, restrain your rabid army...You should accept the fact that, from now on whenever you attack our country, your houses will also burn on fire... By the way, why dont you fight on ground COWARDS !?!?
63. Before Olmert starts opening his mouth...
keren ,   sao paulo   (07.28.06)
...again by talking about realigments ,etc,let's put it clear: ISRAEL BORDERS CAN NOT BE MADE TO PLEASE ARABS,BUT MUST BE MADE TO ESTRATEGICALY PROTECT ISRAEL.PERIOD!!!!! Thinking otherwise is BEYOND dumb! (And govt. mentality must stop being shrinking mentality but expanding mentality!)
64. Ehud in Hiroshima
Chris ,   Annapolis, MD - USA   (07.28.06)
Give them whatever they want... They want all non-muslims to submit to islam and sharia law or die. Which do you chose? You have to pick one if you intend to STOP WAR NOW. I'll make my choice after you've done your part.
65. Arrogance?
mark   (07.28.06)
arrogance!! to protect itself?? get a clue. What do you think we would do if canada started lobbing missles at New york idiot!
66. #46 your assessment is flawed
Jim ,   NYC USA   (07.28.06)
Paul, You are correct that antisemitism is why we see so much resistance to the Israeli effort to defend her homeland. However your assessment of why Barak pulled back is for just as sickening a reason. Liberalism. Liberalism if given a chance will destroy any nation that gives in to it. Barak was very liberal in his approaches as most Jews in israel are. if they maintain Liberalist Jews they are sure to be overtaken and overwhelmed. In israels current position they really need to be on the offense. The mid-east is just itching to finally enter the world markets and the more moderate stance we are witnessing tin the arab world is because the other arab nations realize that terrorism and the violence associated with it are NOT in their best interests (economically or politically). Jordan and Egypt both have slowly come to this view. Even though Syria is involved, i do believe that they are on their way torealizing it as well, but I wont discount them from trying to quietly play this hand out. Iran is the real issue, they arent even close to entering the modern world yet. But as I mentioned thanks to the USA they are impotent in this current fight..The USA is standing PHYSICALLY between Iran and Israel while we are in Iraq..CHECK and MATE.
67. ramallah # 6
keren ,   sao paulo   (07.28.06)
If it happens,YOU will lose more and more land .Don't you think you will keep near Israel,do you?
68. Not all Americans are pro-Israel
Charles ,   Austin Texas USA   (07.28.06)
There are many Americans who are pro-Palestine and/or pro-Arab, and the media both in the Middle East, as well as at home, portray the country's populace as war hungry ignoramuses. Most highly educated Americans understand that war is a necessary consequence of statehood, and that it is only through war that fundamental "constitutional" issues are remedied. So to be pro-Israel for the sake of feeling solidarity with the Jewish people or for the U.S. government's perceived advantage from our alliance with them, is to confound the issues and goals. It may well be in our best interest (and thus, in Israel's best interest) to support Lebanon in this conflict, aid Palestine, and placate just a little to Syria and Iran, lest we lose the little support and faith we have from vital global partners like Russia, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Israel has overstepped its bounds, and she may be pulling us into a military conflict we cannot escape victorious from, save sound diplomacy and cooler heads. If Israel represents the policies and behavior of the "new middle east," I believe we had better return to the old.
69. NASRALLAH
FrighteningFred ,   USA BABY   (07.28.06)
IS HIDING like a PIG in the mud!!
70. #40 I am afraid your days are limited, go back to GAZA!
(07.28.06)
71. Pussyfootin'
SpecOps ,   United States   (07.28.06)
If it is true that the Islamic-Arabic world is one which consists of the interreactions of the bazaar/marketplace then only two things really matter...pride and winning or losing. Therefore, only the winner/strong survive and, thusly, respect arrives. Y'israel...proceed from strength to strength, ONLY...then negotiate. Sadly, the brave Islamist warrior MUST die. Proceed to accomodate, with great prejudice, this death wish. May Eins_f bless and guard Yerushalayim (רוּשָׁלַיִם) and bring peace, joy, prosperity, personal freedom and happiness to all. May He forgive those who hate. May He bless those who love.
72. STRIKE HARD - CUT THE HEAD OFF THE SNAKE

73. Today Khaybar (1)
diala ,   Beirut Lebanon   (07.28.06)
who knows what is next, israel we're coming , another 2 weeks we'll be at your doors giving you candies :) By the way after the invasion in 1982, when the IDF retrieved from beirut and other places, they left presents for children, bomb puppets and games, whenever a child picks it up from the ground it goes BOOM !!!! Israel + USA = Terrorism Anyone knows how many children israel killled for 50 years ....

75. Huh?
Jeff ,   Kabul Afghanistan   (07.28.06)
Folks, I've got to say, your education is showing. Most of the pro-Jewish comments are written with complete sentences that make sense. Most of the pro-Muslim comments go from difficult to understand to complete gibberish. I understand that English is a second language for many of you, but if you insist on being a violent player on the world stage you need to polish it up a little bit. You're going to need it to explain to the U.S. Marine Sargeant what you're doing out after dark. Like someone said earlier; If your schools taught you something besides "Dirka dirka" and "hate Jews" you might find something useful to do.
76. Give them what they want?
Eli ,   Australia   (07.28.06)
A totally Shi'ite Islamic militant theocracy is what they want. And the death of all who are different - Jewish, Christian, Sunni or otherwise. Would you give them that? We can't and never will.
77. Total War?
Nathan S. ,   USA   (07.28.06)
What has been happening uptill now? Its TOTAL WAR!!! Just because YOU have not been hit yet does not mean its not TOTAL WAR!!! Nat
78. Strategic loss . . .
David ,   Little Rock, Ar   (07.28.06)
From '67 to '06, Israel has known war and peace. It's always been hated, sometimes tolerated. The US is her only reliable friend. But the Arabs who so detest the Jews, always respected the might of the Jewish State. As the rockets pierce through the beauty of Israel, they also knife through the illusions of land for peace and even disengagement. The greatest loss is the loss of Israel's strategic depth, it's mighty long arm, the fear of the Arabs. Now, Peres and Olmert languish, and reel, refusing to see teh harsh Jihad for what it is; Jihad, vanquishing of the Jews and their land, forced conquest. Will a tepid cease fire, with a resurgant Hezbullah embolden Israel's foes???? Do Olmert and Peres even grasp the unfolding tragedy?
79. Israel Needs to press on!
Eric M ,   Pittsburgh USA   (07.28.06)
Iran is just waiting for a reason to get involved and Israel don't want that yet, but they really need to push on and get things done! They have a chance to reduce the middle east problem!
80. #8 PLO REWARDED for JIHAD AGAINST LEBANON'S CHRISTIANS
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (07.28.06)
Lebanon was a Christian country until Muslims achieved a majority through an extremely high birthrate. The jihad against Lebanon's Christians was savage and barbaric. The IDF was the only hope for the embattled Christians. Click on Photo gallery: http://www.free-lebanon.com/ 20,000 Christians handicapped by PLO atrocities. PLO terrorists were rewarded for their savagery and mass murder of Christians by implanting them into Israel as TERRORIST "peace" partners through Oslo to continue the bloody, barbaric jihad against Israel's Jews. The Christians of Damour, Lebanon treated Muslims from surrounding areas free of charge in their hospital. The PLO and other terrorists repaid the Christian kindness with barbaric savagery: The Massacre and Destruction of Damour 'The attack took place from the mountain behind. It was an apocalypse. They were coming, thousands and thousands, shouting 'Allahu Akbar! God is great! Let us attack them for the Arabs, let us offer a holocaust to Mohammad 'And they were slaughtering everyone in their path, men, women and children.' Whole families were killed in their homes. Many women were gang-raped..." http://www.free-lebanon.com/LFPNews/psa/psa.html Satanic acts were perpetrated on Damour Christians.
81. Hezbollah fanatics
Ted ,   Portsmouth USA   (07.28.06)
You take their side (Isalm fanatics who mar their god's name) and I'll take Jesus Christ'......if it does come to a fatal end for both sides....at least I am CONFIDENT I am on the right side. No religion will ultimately survive invoking their god in the name of war. And the virgins don't exist you morons.....just hellfire for your misguided ignorance.
82. Nassrallah is cowardly hiding in Damascus
Meir ,   Philadelphia, PA   (07.28.06)
While his troops are using Lebanon as a human shield. But the Arab responses on this talkback should tell you all you need about any chance for peace. All the Arabs care about is pride and victory, and they will NEVER STOP killing Jews until they are all dead. Its kill or be killed. Its time to kill. Seriously, at some point the nuclear option will need to be discussed. Too far? Not if the Arab governments are as stupid as the Arab posters here. They want death and martyrdom. Give it to them.
83. Nasarallah
Brian B ,   Atlanta, USA   (07.28.06)
I read the story today about Nasarallah hiding the Iranian embassy or Damascus. My theory is he is probably in the home of the UN secretary general. They seem to be good friends.
84. Its not a video game
Moumen ,   Egypt   (07.28.06)
hey all of you, you are all talking as if you are playing a video game or you are watching a football match. There is no use of what you are all fighting about. there are people dying on both sides, innocent people. Try to find out a solution not to fight. They are fighting over there they dont need you to fight here also. try to talk to each other and give each other a chance to understand the other's point of view. We need peace and thats what you all need to think about.
85. #14
Proud Lebanese   (07.28.06)
LoL. Check what Olmert bad decisions has caused to what is called north israel. Arie go fight for you country instead of sitting on the net. I believe you served in the military, so you know how fight coward.
86. #30
Proud Lebanese   (07.28.06)
Are you retard or what? I don't think israel need people like you. If israel uses a nuclear bomb all the north will be affected as well by the radiation. Again, this shows the israeli's mentality of their love to blood and destruction.
87. #22
Proud Lebanese   (07.28.06)
LOL. Not worth it to reply to you.
88. US AND ISRAEL, SIDE BY SIDE
brian ,   us   (07.28.06)
AND THE WORLD MUST SIT BACK AND WATCH US KICK BUTT. THEY HAVE NO CHOICE. AND NEITHER DO WE. IF WE DONT KICK IT NOW, THEY WILL EVENTUALLY USE NUCLEAR WEAPONS TO HIT OUR INOOCENT CIVILIANS. THEY HAVE CROSSED THE WRONG TWO FOES. AND IT IS TIME TO SHUT THEIR WEAK TRAP.
89. NUKE EM NOW
Howard ,   USA   (07.28.06)
How much longer will Israel take this shit? Destroy all the rockets and be done with it.
90. War, never a good thing
Brian ,   Florida, USA   (07.28.06)
OK, here is what I see from afar. A group of bad guys(Hezbolla) is fomenting an all out war. Here is where I see this heading. Eventually, either Isreal will hit am embassy(Iran?) in Beriut, or another nation(Syria?), bringing more countries into the fray. Or, Iranians trying to get to Lebanon cross though Turkey or Iraq are turned by by force, resulting in Iran getting involved, along with Turkey or Iraq. Syria, will get hit, either as a pre-empitve strike to prevent foreign forces from getting in, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, ect, all jump in based on pressure from their people. Read history back to WWI. Very similar set-up of alliances, big and little countries, ect, and the most disasterous war in history raged. The stage is set in the Middle East. It doesn't matter whose fault it is. If people do not stop, collect their thoughts, and think before acting, this is going to be a war that will probably kill more people than all previous wars combined. Remeber, Nukes are in play this time. Lets think just a little bit. God won't even be able to help the human race otherwise.
