1. Welcome to disengagement II
Al   (05.31.07)
As long as rockets don't fall on North Tel-Aviv, than the media mavens and the politicos wont give a damn. Whats so friggin difficult to understand? The residents of Sederot are viewed as poor shnooks not worth of anyones time and concern, much like the despised "Settlers". Welcome to the Warsaw ghetto where those who could would buy their time. We all know the end of that story , don't we?
2. residents of shderot
sas ,   israel   (05.31.07)
YOU ARE 100% correct. keep on fighting. you deserve much better and the present government is full of impotents.
3. The whole country should come to a halt!
Chaya ,   Bat Yam, Israel   (05.31.07)
How many people live in Sderot? 25,000? Groups of a few hundred each should go to various major intersections throughout the country and stop traffic! Let's see how other people feel about being made to 'suffer' for an hour or two!!
4. protest against kassems
alexei ,   canada   (05.31.07)
No solution is possible with Olmert as PM. He is afraid, and his fear of war and death paralyses him and always has. That is why he recently said he would discuss peace with syria if only kassems would stop. He should sit with IDF and draw up a lightening strike/cutoff of hamas by cutting up GAZA into sections and cleaning the entire hamas leadership. Moshe Yaalon knows what it would take and he could be the new DM if Netanyahu takes over. Olmert deprived Israel of its counterstrike against Hezbollah to roll them up from the backside. He is a modern day Chamberlain.
5. Slowly, slowly getting the idea...
Dan ,   USA   (05.31.07)
Mazel tov, Sderot residents! Disruptive protests AWAY from Sderot and in TA and Jerusalem are the only way you'll get heard and move the regime to act!
6. protesting On the ground
(06.01.07)
no need to use the "paper wings", Qassams are coming down soon.
7. Solutions do Exist
Gideon Reader ,   USA   (06.01.07)
The solutions exist. The leaders of the Government de jour have no testicles. Until there is a government willing to utilize the solutions the Q's will land.
8. Puppet Olmert not permitted to defeat Kasssems
Marcel ,   Florida   (06.01.07)
Israel is back under slavery ,slavery to the Bush Road Map and this is why the lemmings Olmert ,perez will do nothing. They are not allowed to threaten Bush terrorist led Plan for a Palestinian state. Israel could never be defeated by war ,but by the peace Israel has been rendered impotent and defeated. The religious obedience Israel's weak faithless people and leaders have to the U.S. and this false peace process is wickedness. It is abomination to the Holy One of Israel whom they ignore while they prostrate and worship the arrogant Assyrian (superpower leader) and obediently obey his every decree. The U.S. continues to restrain Israel in dealing with it's enemies intent on defeating and destroying them. The restraint is dressed up in the false peace Road Map process of exterminating Israel in stages. Israel has fallen into this trap hook,line and sinker and her weak ,feckless and faithless leaders have no other place or hope to turn to. They are not capable of extricating themselves from this cursed marriage which brings only death and desolation to Israel. They are morally and spiritually bankrupt,a reflection of the nation, and by their weakness lead the nation to war and not peace. There is One who promised long ago to break this yoke from Israel's neck. The removal of the U.S. yoke from the neck of Israel will free up Israel to defeat the Palestinian's and seek Him alone for salvation. The Idol which Israel prostrated before for peace and security will be shattered into a million pieces and Israel will no longer look to men for help but to their God
9. dont cry believe me
rashid ,   palistinian   (06.01.07)

10. sderot
zhukov   (06.01.07)
Turn sderot into a fortified artillery bunker and return artillary fire on vacant blocks . one qassam for one thousand artillary shells but dont harm civilians . bunker sderot and protect the people
11. #8 - Marcel is right
Otter   (06.01.07)
The US is also to blame. Demonstrate in front of the American Consulate and Embassy and tell them you know what they are up to. Tell them your country is not to be used as bargaining chip for American foolishness in Iraq, and to release their grip on Olmert so that the IDF can do the job they want and need to do to defend the country.
12. Olmert: Listen to Rabbi Elihayu!
Yosef   (06.01.07)
He said that Jewish law demands that Gaza be bombed to oblivion if necessary.
13. Another result of poor leadership
Sigfried S. Kuhn ,   Aberdeen   (06.01.07)
Obviously, if Israel hadn't uprooted the settlers and turned Gaza over to religious fanatics, murderers, thieves and implacable enemies, Sderot wouldn't have to endure the daily barrage of Kassams. The hope that Israel's international standing would improve after leaving Gaza was nonsense as the recent vote by British academics show that opposition to Israel is not based on the occupation. It is based on Israel's existence as a sovereign Jewish State. Even the disastrous withdrawal could have been overcome if Israel had devastated Hezbollah during the Lebanon War. Instead of serving as a deterrant, the sight of a so-called military power being mislead and afraid to take risks emboldened the Hamas monsters to have no fear of Israel and encouraged the jackals in Europe and England to openly flaunt their bigotry. Israelis of all political opinions have to join the protesting Sderot residents and force this incompetent and thieving government out!
14. Goofy in Miami
Gideon Reader ,   USA   (06.01.07)
Marcel, for Gods sake and your own mental health, take a breath and seek some treatment for your Bush Derangement Syndrome. Granted Bush is a foolish wanker, but you carry it to beyond believable extremes. Give it a rest.
15. Olmert - podonok!
Oleg ,   USA   (06.01.07)
He will never do anything to help Israel -- he is unable to make any decision. He is worse then Hamas, because they openly admit that they are enemies and he is PM who can only kiss enemy's butt. Get rid of him - do not go to Labor -- Barak and Peretz are traitors. Stop pay attention to what other world says. Protect your country.
16. qassama demo
bernard buzby ,   raanana israel   (06.01.07)
to Marcel, fl. If my memory serves me right the Bush administration,unlike previous ones, did everything possible to give Israel as much time as it needed to destroy hissbulah using its power to stop the U.N. and other anti -Israeli 0organisations to force a premature cease fire on Israel. What it did,nt take into account was the leadership of Israel under Olmert, Peretz etc. was useless and as shown by the recent commission almost criminally incompetent.
17. #8 have another American Liberty for Israel to destroy ?
(06.01.07)
then go on for your incitement. It's so patriotic of you to offer USS Libertys for destruction.
18. why they will pudget taxes for such sort of government ?
(06.01.07)
19. AUTHISM
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (06.01.07)
That is what is going on here,if it is not hitting my house,it is of no concern to me. I saw this in Tel Aviv this past summer during the war,Were people were fighting for parking spaces and behaving like nothing was happening at all. One can see this behavior in olmert and friends,there is a disconnection to reality and a total ignorance to what is at stake here. When peretz tells you that restraint is a sign of strenght,one knows how arrogant and blind one can be. Our enemies are very honest about their goals and intentions,they do not hold back and are totally focused on our destruction,fueled by their hatred. They are getting stronger and better organized and the lebanon war did nothing to wake us up. Be rest assured that the rockets will hit every part of the country the next time around. But hey lets keep listening to our great leaders propped up by our corrupt media,heading for more authism and denial.
20. We are ALL Sderotians
DK ,   LA, usa   (06.01.07)
If a city of 25,000 on the front line of the "war on terror" cannot get the immediate protection from our governments-then we are all doomed. Place the blame where it belongs-on the U.S. State Dept and inudate Rice's office with emails and photos of the death and destruction her delusional policies have caused. Demand the indictment of the Hamas members being held starting with the murder of poor Mr. Oz..and hold their trials in Sderot using them for "human shields". Where is "Bibi" and the rest of the "tough talkers" now? Powerful people are immune from criticism but can be easily "hurt" only through mocking and embarassing them. Do what the Native Americans did when they were marginalized and ignored- they sought help from foreign countries (like France) embarassing the U.S. Govt. into action. Be creative and be relentless,. We, who don't know you or speak your language are outraged by the suffering and abandonment you are experiencing and hold you close in our prayers. .Let the line be drawn here and now between victory or surrender. We have had enough of these common mass-murderers masquerading as a "political movement".
21. government ?
gary ,   israel   (06.01.07)
The government is oppressing us its own people. Can we do anything about it when they beat us and don't defend us and finance and give weapons to our enemies. They are criminals and we have little respite from their idiocy. Any suggestions how to rid ourselves of these cancerous and mentally sick clowns who sacrifice the holy nation to oppresion and slaughter at the hands of murderers?

26. Israel recognizes Palestine, not the other way
Ima Bleever ,   Anytown USA   (06.01.07)
Palestinians have full rights as Israeli citizens. They can vote. They can own. They can worship as they please. They pay tax but not because of their faith only because of property. They must serve in the IDF like anyone else. (at least I think so) They must obey the law of the land like anyone else. One law for all, even for women. Now, if the land belonged to Palestine... Jews could not vote. Women could not vote. Jews could not own anything. Women could not either. Jews could not worship as they please unless they pay the extortion "tax" of dhimmis. Jews would be untrusted and unable to ever touch a weapon, let alone serve in the army. Jews would be under a DIFFERENT set of laws than Muslims, just as women are under a DIFFERENT set of laws than Muslim men. Hypocrisy. It has a foul stench. The Israelis/Jews even recently let a token Arab or two into their Knesset just to make the Palestinians happy. What was their reward? Those very people incited sedition and rebellion then misused their post further to foment revolution (fighting, overthrowing, etc.) Why all the Jew hatred? From where I stand, Jews are better people than Muslims. From where I stand, Muhammed was unfair to order Jews exterminated 1400 years ago when Israel wasn't even a country yet and hadn't caused any harm to anyone as they were slaves at the time unless I'm badly mistaken. Also, why does your god look down on women if he is the one who creates them? Why does he look down on Jews for the same reason? Is your god's handiwork flawed? Mine is not. Does your god make mistakes? Mine does not. Also, you should not provoke the peaceful people of Sderot by calling them cowards. If they adopt your thoughts, they will kill the Gazan neighbors of the attackers for not doing anything to protect against the rockets they can see from their living rooms. Thou shalt not kill/murder. The only exception is self defense or for food. Is someone going to barbeque the good people of Sderot? No? Then stop killing them. Where are your big, phoney tears for the Canaanites who SOMEONE killed in order to clear the land for the so-called Palestinians who allegedly just walked in and took it peacefully? Yeah right. There hasn't been a land peacefully taken in the history of Earth, except maybe when Adam and Eve first set foot outside the garden. Every step after that has been bloody. And your people are as guilty as any other.
