1. Israel accepts the Cease Fire?
delahoya ,   Jakarta, Indonesia   (08.14.06)
All the world know that Israel fights like hell and when Israel accept sthe cease fire means that she loses the war...HAHAHAHA.......come on u guys have just lost only hundreds, finish what u have started !
2. Situation #2
Aaron ,   OZ   (08.14.06)
In this situation, declare a wide no-go zone where possible. This could be 1, but preferably 2-21/2 Km from the border, in which the IDF will shoot ANY & EVERY person DEAD, whether they can be determined to be armed or not. Simply apply the shoot to kill policy of the Soviet border guards. This WILL stop incursions, and as their is no decision making process, remote/automated systems could be used, allied to small arms, provided a free fire zone is outlined.
3. the Lebanese goverment is refuing to disarm Hizbullah !
michael ,   tel aviv & london   (08.14.06)
Am I missing something here. The Lebanese government have now refused to disarm Hezbullah and intend no more meetings on the subject. Since this was a cornerstone of the UN agreement then surely there is no longer any agreement. What am I missing here. thanks
4. Likely scenario: Ceasefire- No ConvidenceVote- End of Olmert
Jeremiah ,   Israel, Jewish Land   (08.14.06)
5. Ignorant number 3
majd ,   espoo   (08.14.06)
The lebanese goverment want to disarm hisballa but thatnks to Israel and Syria who always lobied internationally agaisnt weapons delivery to the leb army, the goverment finds it self with no means to disarm anyone. And I bet Israel is hoping that scenario 3 will take place so they will have an excuse to kill even more children and reply harshly and an unhuman way which is the Israeili way. to bomb BEIRUT same way Hitler bombed London
6. to #1
Yossi ,   ISRAEL   (08.14.06)
Who is "all world" ? How the hell do you know what the "world" knows, from Indonesia ? By eating some Cwie Mie Malang ? Get the fuck out of here, or join your Arab Hezb and dine soem dust with them !
7. You work for Hezbollah
Dan A ,   Paris   (08.14.06)
As you present all the possibilities, you work for Hezbollah intelligence to help them to be well prepared. Journalists lack of patriotic sense contributed much to actual results!
8. HIZBULLAH KINGDOM IN LEBANON !
AVINU   (08.14.06)
Lebanese goverment REFUSE to disarm Hizbullah ! What that mean for future ?? ALL LEBANON WILL BE HZBULLAH !
9. cease fire with a terrorist organisation? c'mon
uli ,   Jerusalem   (08.14.06)
I think our governments idea was to transfer responsibility to Lebanon that there would be somebody to really held accountable in case of attacks. The problem is just that the lebanese government (and seemingly all lebanese) are more afraid of hisbAllah than of the Israeli army and seemingly nobody in the world has the courage to take on HisbAllah - except for Israel. That's why I think, the UN or any other third party is acutally interested in scenrio 3 - which would us also give the opportunity to delete this shameful impression our neighbours got from our inability to stop the katyushas.
10. cease-fire
Mike ,   North Atlanta   (08.14.06)
This period is predicated on the notion that the heztards will not attack troops in place or continue rocket attacks. Any takers for an over/under on the next airstrike? I'll say 30 hours...
11. TO 8
SAUL ,   MELBOURNE   (08.14.06)
Don't warry. H.A. can not govern lebanon. Remember H.A. is one of 2 major shiite parties in lebanon. The shiite population in lebanon are only 30% of Lebanon's population.
12. ISRAELI LEADERS DESPICABLE BETRAYAL of KIDNAPPED IDF
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (08.14.06)
Brave IDF heroes fight and die for Israel. The lives of courageous IDF mean absolutely nothing to Israel's leaders who are cruel to Jews, but repeatedly show mercy to Israel's enemies. The resolution only refers to a return of the kidnapped soldiers in its preamble and not among the document's actual clauses. There is no mention of the kidnapped soldier in the south, Gilad Shalit." For the first time in the history of Israel, Israel's leaders surrender in war and treasonously support the UN Resolution which threatens Israel's survival.
13. Scenario 4
Terry ,   Toronto Ontario Can   (08.14.06)
Scenario 4 is that the SOBs will get S.A.M. and some new rockets from Syria . I think we should leave Lebanon to lick its wounds and go to Damascus and arrest Bashar AssAd for aiding terrorist organisation . The Syrians Must learn a hard lessen that is Mr. Olmert wants to make it up for what the Israeli peoples have gone thru . It is time to Kick some Syrian Azz
14. Another scenario
Adonis ,   Lebanon   (08.14.06)
The IDF will continue to provocate Hizbollah by bombing some places, shouting like they are doing now untill Hizbollah decide to give them a new lesson. An we start again. Hizbioullah kills IDF soldiers while IDF and IAF kills Lebanese civilians in the north. Hope that this scenario will not happen, but knowing the blood thursty zionist, it will.
15. Completely Ignorant # 5
Sami   (08.14.06)
Have you been to Beirut recently?? If you did you would see that the life outside the defined terrorist strongholds have been unaffected during this war. The civilians are well aware of where these terrorists are located and hide as is the IAF. If Israel wanted they could have completely destroyed Lebanon and be rid of such a threat, but they seem to care more about the Lebanese civilians then Nasrallah and Hisbollocks do, this is why Israel has lost many soldiers trying to eliminate these pussys who have cowardly hide behind civilians.
16. Fox guards chicken house
Sidney ,   USA   (08.14.06)
A significant fraction of the Lebanese army is Shiite. Among the countries offering troops to UNIFIL are several Moslem countries. Does any sensible person expect these people to disarm Hezbollah? Olmert has led Israel into another trap. Get rid of Olmert.
17. Why does Israel create these stupid scenarios
Zack ,   Canada   (08.14.06)
Doesn't Israel see that everything is going fine? DO they just like to start problems? Do you see any katyuchas blasted into Israel?
18. UN RESOLUTION of HATE, DECEIT & RACISM for ISRAEL
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (08.14.06)
Extreme HATE: Responsibility for compliance of the resolution is given to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, infamous for his fanatical hatred of Israel. Extreme DECEIT: Equivalency is made between Iran's Hizbullah terrorist army' vicious unprovoked acts of war against Israel - over 3,000 rockets fired at Israel and Israel's self-defense operations which the resolution refers to as "offensive" military operations. Images show Hizbullah using high-density residential areas to launch rockets: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,,19955774-5007220,00.html Extreme RACISM: The damage and destruction to Israel is enormous. Israel's economy is devastated. Destruction in some Israeli towns is far worse than experienced by most people in the Lebanese cities of Beirut and Sidon. Profound Jew-hate is revealed in the resolution which asks for financial and humanitarian assistance for Lebanon the aggressor - but no assistance whatsoever for Israel the victim. Extreme DECEIT: The Lebanese government and Hizbullah are one and the same. The US, EU, UN are fully aware that Hizbullah terrorists are part of Lebanon's government and that the Lebanon government actively colludes with Hizbullah: YNETNEWS (08.12.06, 16:52) Siniora accepts deal, praises Hizbullah ...steadfastness of resistance fighters in field was very important,' http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3290107,00.html Extreme DISHONESTY: In 2,000, the UN determined that Israel had withdrawn to the international border. The resolution places Shaba Farms - legally belonging to Israel - up for negotiation. The laws of nations forbids land taken through aggression. The US, EU, UN unlawfully seek to reward Lebanon/Hizbullah/Iran for their unprovoked war of aggression against Israel. Extreme RACISM and DECEIT: In calling for disarmament of all armed groups in Lebanon, the US, EU, UN are fully aware Hizbullah will NEVER disarm and know they are giving Lebanon/Hizbullah victory over Israel and a massive victory for Syria and Iran, who sponsor Hizbullah in Iran's war against Israel and the free world. In the global war to bring all nations under Islamic subjugation, the US, EU, UN empowerment of global jihad wickedly betrays Israel and the world's non-Muslims.

19. Israel won!
Jeff ,   Philadelphia   (08.14.06)
I think if you looks at the facts you will clearly see the gains made by Israel during this conflict: 530 Hezbollah killed 100 Israelis killed Israel at the Latani Hezbollah forced to retreat from the South Lebanon, especially Hezbollah stongholds basically destroyed. Does anyone really see it any other way.
20. To #19 - No, Israel didn't !
Marc ,   Berlin, GER   (08.14.06)
I really see it other way. First of all, IDF estimates the number of 530. If you remember the goal at the beginning was to 'destroy' Hizbollah, stop the Katyushas and get the captured soldiers back 'within few days'. Now Olmert thinks about negotiations for an exchange after the highest number of IDF soldiers died since the last Lebanon war. Hizbollah is a guerilla force not a regular army. So territory losses don't mean anything to them cause they attacked IDF even in 'conquered' towns all the time. Katyushas are still raining down. The fighters are still in S. Lebanon. So what happened is that Hizbollah pulled down IDF's pants, metaphorically.
21. #14 Adonis
Chaim ,   Alameda,Ca.   (08.14.06)
Hey Adonis, You need to stop looking at your reflection in the pool. Like the rest of you who make threats and delusional statements about great victories and "lessons" that your "litt;le cleric" will give to Israel, for the sake of Lebanon! Your student, Israel will flunk your exam and kick all your asses.Sorry to ruin your :victory parade" Please have someone check to see if the "little fat assed cleric" has his turbin screwed on too tight. Or, maybe a chinstrap is in order? Peace
