1. attacks on us buildings
marv ,   thornhill   (07.14.07)
Olmert will do his best to make sure that there is no israeli security around us buildings. His assurance should be regarded as worthless; he has ruined the IDF, damaged israel's deterrence, has no negotiating position other than concessions, does not beleive in Israel. The best thing would be if went into the sea and decided never to come back.
2. Pack Up and Go Home U.S.
Marcel ,   Florida   (07.14.07)
Your Imperial throne begins to crumble just as all once great empired before you. Do you think it is a coincidence that you are now bogged down in what was once the GREAT Babylonian Empire ? Your incessant meddeling in Israel's sovereign affairs,your perverted exports and your pride signal your end.

you are real brave saying that from the comfort of your home in Florida, if the US is so bad why don't you go live elsewhere you traitor
4. American Embassy Warning
Chayim Phillips ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.14.07)
There seems to be a discrepancy between this article and how the U.S. Embassy works. U.S. Nationals are requested to register with the U.S. Embassy. If there are any issues that the U.S. Government needs to convey to U.S. Nationals, they do it by issuing what they refer to as "Warden Notices". They did that a few weeks ago as Hamas was taking control of Gaza. As it relates to this article, I have received no such notice.
5. americans take warning
adam ,   israel   (07.14.07)
americans dont go into crowded buses or markets. dont go to the old city. dont go to shomron or judea ("west bank").......but ignore the fact that most of dc is a dangerous ghetto. ignore the fearful amount of illegal guns going around and the easy access to buy bullets at walmart and target. pretend school shootings cant happen to your childrens school...american government take a break...as an american now living in israel, i can truly say from my heart i feel 100 times safer here even on buses than in america.
6. RE: Pack Up and Go Home U.S.
femmesavante ,   USA   (07.14.07)
if the US meddled more in Israeli affairs, maybe so many Palestinians wouldn't be dying every day. And without US funding, Israel would be an Arab country. Oh, Hertzl would cry to hear his beloved people speaking Arabic...
7. #2 Have you been reading the National Enquierer Again?

8. Whithout the US the Palis would not be in Israel
Sam Weinstein ,   USA   (07.15.07)
With out the US the Palis would not be in Israel and Jprdan would have been overthrown and made into a Palis State. Israel would have had secure borders with Judea and Sumaria annexed.
9. Condi Bush created this latest crisis and they want
JoshC   (07.15.07)
Israeli's to mop up the vomit of their pal-loving agenda? I say bring Condi to Israel to personally bus all americans to their jobs and do their erands for them. She is most loved by that region.
10. RE: Pack up and go Home US
JRS   (07.15.07)
I second the motion. Israel is seen as the US proxy, and I think Israel might be a victim of the US military/industrial complex. Nothing has been a greater boom to the corporatocracy than Israel and oil in the Middle East.
11. #3& # 6
Marcel ,   Florida   (07.15.07)
You've got no where to go but down when your are the arrogant empire. Too blind to see the rot that has taken hold of this once great nation ? From the top to the bottom,the foundations crumble and yet the dumbed down masses follow the pied pipers to the pit. You ,my arrogant leaders have no business telling Israel what to do and her survival is not based on what you do. What you have been doing for a long time is weakening and destroying Israel by your rewarding of Palestinian's and their Islamic terrorism against Israel. Your FAILED OSLO and FAILED ROAD MAP give you no credibility to interfere with Israel in any whay whatsoever. You flunked ,got an F in foreign policy and now it's time to hang your head low and head home. Your mess in Iraq is evidence of your downward spiral under a phony peace-maker and bonafide idiot president who has failed at everything he has touched. .
12. Neutralize them
Brod ,   USA   (07.15.07)
America should hit them wherever they are--even if they are hiding in the Mountains, Caves and among the dark forces in Paikistan, Saudi Arabia and Iran. It is time to give them their 'medicine' in their own turfs. Meanwhile, America must be vigilant in its own backyard. It must infiltrate the places of hate sermons and hate preachers in the US. Those hate preachers are the Generals and Foot Soldiers of Islamist-Jihadist terrorisms around the world. They must be neutralized.

Gil ,   Tel Aviv   (07.15.07)
Yeah go ahead and go home US, Israel has some of the finest technology, brains and weopons that it exports around the world and worth billions. And we already speak Arabic. How do you think we know so much about those dumbasses on the other side of the fence? Unlike in the US... where terrorists pulled off the biggest attack in NY right under your noses back in 01.
14. #2
why ?   (07.15.07)
Your so full of hate,sound like a warmongering extremist.Manipulative.
15. Fellow Americans
Korem ,   New York, USA   (07.15.07)
According to a recent poll, 78% of Israelis declaredly like the USA. These people calling us "arrogant" represent only 22% of Israel. Don't think Israel is ungrateful for what the US did for Israel in the 70s and continues to do to this day.
16. Behind all the Manipulations
Brod ,   USA   (07.15.07)
Behind all the manipulations that the US is being blamed in the TBs is the dirty latent hands of Saudi Arabia--the Chief Sponsor of Islamist-Jihadist Terrorisms around the world. Saudi Arabia is the Chief Crusader of Jihadism around the world in attempting to subdue, dominate and islamize NON-Islamist countries. They do it through funding, hate sermon materials, manipulations by squeezing the balls of corrupted and stupid leaders to do their dirty work, and through open Islamist-Jihadist terrorisms. It is time to expose the evil work of the chief of the dark forces--Saudi Arabia. It is time America severs its relation with Saudi Arabia. America has enough oil of its own instead of depending on the corrupt, fanatical, Wahabhist terroristic state of Saudi Arabia. Until Saudi Arabia becomes a democratic state, it will continue to perpetuate its evil agenda of Jihadism around the world.
17. What Next, the Delis?
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (07.15.07)
My next question is: when will Jewish Americans become targets, in America? We are very soft targets. What will happen this fall during the high holy days? I recall when a friend who owns a business frequented by Jews, both American and Israeli, told me that it is just a matter of time before suicide bombers attack locally. Israel needs this like a hole in the head..but it is reality. Condi and Bush are not to blame. Islamic Jihad and Hamas and Al Qaeda are. Next question: how many American Jews own guns?
18. To Brod: But What About Politics?
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CA USA   (07.15.07)
I agree with your assessment, but you are forgetting some things. Racial profiling is verboten. Arab organizations hate it, and they are influencial. Airport security cannot stop someone on a hunch. based on their facial features or skin color. In fact, a local Muslim anti-defamation once suggested that Jews who look like Irv Rubin (JDL), be stopped by police. So what is good for the goose, is not good for we Jews apparently.
19. No. 6
NYC Girl   (07.15.07)
Some "savante" you are. You really have no idea what you're talking about if you think that Israel would be an Arab country without American aid. Where the hell do you people get all of these ludicrous notions from...al Jazeera?
20. ISRAEL WILL BE STRONGER WITHOUT USA & OLMERT
..............DACON9   (07.15.07)
21. PITY IS YOU LIBERAL IDIOTS DO NOT UNDERSTAND MARCELS MESSAGE
..............DACON9   (07.15.07)
22. Warning of Possible attack on Us Embassy in Tel Aviv
roxy ,   Israel   (07.15.07)
Since the US embassy like all embassies is considered the soil of that country an attack on the embassy would be just like an attack on the US itself, if attacked the US should go after the responsible group and blow that country to heck! That would finally give the terrorists in Iran,Syria,Lebanon the right message of "We are not going to take any more of your@#$$!". We will not tolerate your agenda of hate,murder,I get they would stop quickly once their own country is in flames!
23. #22..There are 25,000 Jews who are Jews in their hearts in..
(07.15.07)
Iran. If Iran is attacked in an all-out war instead of precision pin point strikes of nuclear production targets, the consequence of defeating Iran is described in Daniel Ch. 8 and Ezekiel ch. 32. The notable horn of Daniel has to be the USA b/c Alexander the Great did not have airplanes and Greece was not the westernmost nation. When the ram with two horns (Iraq-Iran) is subdued, the notable horn will break. Ezekiel ch 32 says a sword of the king of Babylon (Iraq) will destroy the multitude (military) of a young lion nation, divided by rivers, metered and peeled (shaven), etc. The ELS Bible codes say the weapons of mass destruction from Iraq are buried in the Bakaa Valley of Lebanon. Whether attacking Lebanon and Syria will harm the USA, I do not know. The Bible says Damascus will be destroyed. BUT IF IRAN is totally subdued, America will break into four parts. It is best not to attack Iran in a ground war like in Iraq because of Hashem's concern for the 25,000 Jews there who are Jews in their hearts and not atheists like a lot of Jews in other places.
24. #16 The US does not have close to enough oil
(07.15.07)
The US oil peaked in the early 70's. They import 60% of what they need for daily opperation. Cut out Saudi which supplies if I am not mistaken about 12% of the oil the US uses. You are probably too young to remember 1973 which was a decline of 5%. You reduce even to that level and you will have chaos. Now for the good news, Edom will turn on Israel very soon. That is yes, the USA. That is in Jewish, not xtian prophecy. Learn Hebrew and then start to read, you will be a little shocked.
25. the us embassy sends out warnings all the time
shira ,   israel   (07.15.07)
The us embassy sends out 'cya' emails warning US citzens about possible terrorist attacks every few months. In every one of these emails they warn US citizens against going to Gaza or the West Bank. This isn't news.
26. GD protects the Jewish people #23
Miri ,   Israel   (07.15.07)
If Gd is supposed to protect the Jewish people then how come so many of us died in the Holocaust? In the war of Independence and all the wars since then? Why is he allowing this country to be so corrupt and decay right before our eyes? If he is so concerned why did he turn his back on us during the Holocaust, and why is he ignoring us now?
27. #26 Maybe that is what keeps us together.

28. US Buildings Targeted in Israel

29. US Buildings Targeted in Israel
James ,   Vancouver, Canada   (07.15.07)
Good! I hope the murderers succeed. Maybe this will help the Yanks see their ideas for peace WILL NOT WORK!
30. Living under threat all the time?
Daniel ,   Israel   (07.15.07)
Living under threat all the time!? How long can we bare it? Or in other words how long should we tolerate it? Why can't; so called "the experts" find a final solution for this problem? Why are we sticking to so called "humanitarian behaviour"? While we are living adjusting to the wild animals; where might is right and survival of the fittest are the rules? Take care of these wild animals while they are still weak; or they will spill more of our blood. Or we shall have to find a shelter else where.
