1. There may be other reasons for silence.
Helene ,   Israel   (09.09.07)
2. So that new and shiny Air Defence System does not work, eh?
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (09.09.07)
3. silence is golden
(09.09.07)
it brings out the inner paranoia in Muslims. eventually fear would take it's place, followed by stupidity and rage. gotta love the Israeli government for getting the Syrians so crazy.
4. Wow Helene, what amaizing depth and insight
W.al-Moallem ,   Syria   (09.09.07)
you exude with your ground-shaking suggestion . . .
5. Syrian Lies
Thomas ,   Cleveland, USA   (09.09.07)
It wasn't an attack mission, it was an intelligence mission. What was dropped on Syria were not bombs, but Jettisoned fuel tanks. Had it been an attack mission, it would have succeeded. When has the IAF ever failed? In order to have something to complain about, Arabs make up things in the mean time.
6. Ha, ha, ha, ha, the monkeys pulling on this guys short hairs

7. #4 WOW al-Moallem - you too "exude" ...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (09.10.07)
.... with.... well, you simply "exude"...
8. One question not answered (or asked); maybe 4 can answer:
STEWIE ,   US   (09.09.07)
Just how come if the Syrians claim that it was on their lands that the jettisoned tanks (munitions!?!) were dropped; how come the Turks are the reporters of the evidence, allegedly "near the Turkish border"? Which side?? If on the Syrian, why aren't they the 'finders'? If the Turkish side, how does that turn into "dropped onto Syria"??? Just more smoke and mirrors, I guess.
9. #4 - I'll take that as a compliment; - ) Thank you!
Helene ,   Israel   (09.09.07)
Ah, ISN'T PEACE GRAND!!!!! At least we can exchange sarcasms, but as they say: WHATEVER DOESN'T KILL ME MAKES ME STRONGER: - )))

1. We don't know what happened. 2. We don't care. 3. We will get you anyway. 4. You have seen nothing yet. Anything else you like to know?
12. are arabs this desperate for self esteem?
eric shoenberg ,   NJ USA   (09.10.07)
who are they kidding, other than themselves? all they are showing is how low their self esteem is by trying to find a win where it doesnt exist sad

Do you mean like Hizbollah in Lebanon last year??
15. #4 - You want depth?
Andy ,   R. Hasharon, Israel   (09.10.07)
Ok, al-Moron - here is is: what happened last Thursday means we are prepared to defeat your fake, puppet-of-Iran, dictator-run country. We will defeat you in the air or on the battle field. We aren't impressed by "peace" overtures consisting of a threat of war if we don't "return" the Golan Heights. We are not afraid of war with you. Any questions?
16. Perhaps they dropped a load of those HIV infected melons...
Micha   (09.10.07)
or maybe it was a whole case of carter's tome, palestine:peace not...not sure which. I'm sure syria will be sure to keep us posted though.

i suggest you talk frankly with your leaders and give them a great shake because they'll bring your own destruction. there is no way in hell the un will ever induce israel to stop bombing you if you so much as lift a finger in our direction. if you do that, you'll be signing your own suicide mission and rendering your country and its innocent civilians obsolete. do not underestimate the mistakes your leaders will force on the syrian population just to show the world that "they can win against israel" .you know what the outcome will be and there is no way iranian troops will help, neither russian troops. the most you'll get is a few hizbullahhamas terrorist members, that's all. if iran supports you, it becomes fair target for the usa, israel. this is not a scenario working in your favor. i am pretty sure most of you syrians under this insane autocratic regime will be cheering secretly for israel to eliminate bashar assad and replace him with somewhat of a moderate leader, giving you some bread to put on the table instead of poverty, opression and fear.

from an iaf pilot's wife to all of you.... you have no clue what happened. i do, and let me tell you it was fantastic finding for israeli intelligence. fantastic! it was a very good mission for israel. very very good, bless these pilots. they got what they wanted and left. now let's let the syrians, iranians and the shocked russians debate, argue, guess what happened. what happened was advantageous for us. let's leave it at that!
19. Message to Syria
Natan ,   USA   (09.10.07)
We kicked your butt in 1948. We beat the crap out of you in 1967 and in 1973 you got really "creamed" . Don't give me the "Bullcarp" about "the only thing we want is peace.." Just look at your track record and you may start laughing at yourselves too... Now after this, so called, "failed attack mission" i strongly urge that you to sleep with one eye open...
20. "attack mission"? what is that fool smoking?
dante ,   uk   (09.10.07)
21. Like this guy even knows if Israels mission was to attack
Josh ,   Israel   (09.09.07)
them. Heck they couldn't even see them until they were gone. Muslims are so predictable when they get caught with their pants down. Israel was victorious.!!!! The new secret technology they've been working on proved that they can jam the SAMS much like the US did to saddam. Who cares if russias expensive arsenal of weapons picked them up. Once it did it couldn't fire a direct hit through a marshmallow!!!!! These syrians need to quit going to those smoke parlors. They need to breath in some fresh air and start thinking clearly. Like that's ever gonna happen!!!!!!!!!!
22. Basic desire is comprehensive peace RIGHT ???
M. Segal ,   mpls america   (09.10.07)
I realize Arab leaders love to coin phrases which are totaly Arab with no literal meaning translation they know how to manipulate the English language regretably all politicial religious leaders do so where does this leave us still no where wandering the desert of time in search of answers hope for a future the future any future is Syria prepared to take that step Israel hoped to trigger Syria or test TEST T E S T it RIGHT ??? THANK YOU... M. Segal
23. Israel was attacked clear provacation RIGHT ???
M. Segal ,   mpls america   (09.10.07)
I just had a top secret conversation with God you know the one 1 who led Moses Joshua etc any way here is the real scoop... exactly what happened... Two 2 IDF war planes were flying routine air defense training missions over the Med Sea clearly over in internationial air space when they were jumped intercepted interdicted by no less than by 23 Syrian war planes fled over Syria droped munitions fuel tanks to lighten loads so they get retreat back to Israel... that is the real dope scoop info what happened RIGHT ??? THANK YOU... M. Segal

You are right . The fancy missles that cannot be jammed were jammed or there would be some aircraft wreckage in Syria.

i know i am right and if i comment any further, my husband will kill me. needless to say. we are very happy with the results. we are not talking because what we did was a big embarassment for the arabs and especially for russia....as you can tell by their angry response and pure lies. it's sad. no one wants war, but we would rather catch the syrians with their pants down than have them lower ours.
26. Rally Round the Flag Boys
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CA USA   (09.10.07)
The Arab have one big thing going for them. they are great liars. Syria attacked Israel in every war, fired on northern Israel, sent guerrillas to attack settlements, etc. They want peace? Let them explain how they emasculated Israeli troops captured in 73. Syria is fueling Hez and Hamas and Islamic Jihad and they feign peace? Give me a break. The solution: w/o Iran, and Egypt, Syria is a paper tiger, and they know it. If they attack Israel, Israel should consider a few nukes (fired from Jerichos), starting with Damascus and working back to Kuneitra (given away in 73 thanks to Kissinger). Kuneitra would then be Israel's forward base. Oh Israel, forget about giving Syria the Golan Heights for another 1,000 years. Syria is like a big bully in school, it needs a good "whuppin", and we are here to administer it, millions of Jews and Christians. Don't provode US Syria, we still have the B1s. Stop killing our children in Iraq or pace the ultimate price.
27. Failed Attack Mission - What Nonsense!
Bill Foonman ,   Jacksonville, USA   (09.10.07)
What is this idiot talking about? The IAF was testing the efficacy of Syria's Russian-supplied defence system. All IAF jets returned safely to base. Would somebody please explain to Muhammad Habash exactly how this mission failed?
28. Win the War and what then Give it back??
ralphsrant1 ,   USA   (09.10.07)
Win the War and what then Give it back?? If we go to war keep the Gloan don't give it back we paid with our blood for this land. If we plan to give it up in the future then why go to war? http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com/

you see, what you do not understand is that the war in lebanon forced the iaf and idf to be very careful, throwing leaflets to warn the citizens of eminent iaf attacks on terrorists' strongholds....incidentally, al in civilian houses, under the houses, in hospitals, on house roof tops and amongst civilians. israel had its hands tied behind its back for moral reasons. we were not fighting a regular army with uniforms that adhere to rules of combat. we were fighting terrorists who could only stop us by blending amongst civilians and not wearing uniforms.....this is a very hard war to conduct and hard to win. however, syria is a different story entirely. they are an army, uniformed and have armaments that are somewhat sophisticated. i can't possibly see israel to agree to a cease fire in this case, no matter how much bashar assad will cry to the un like fuad saniora did in lebanon. if syria attacks israel, israel will implement a war to win no matter the consequences. they'll end up having more to loose than the golan heights. israeli flight over syria was for reconnaisance purposes without any intentions to bomb anywhere, but to find out vital information to our security from this bellicose proxy of iran. don't fool yourself and underestimate the israeli army and air force or the technology and extreme sophistication of their battle equipment. this time, if we are attacked, we'll go full force without the reservations you witnessed in lebanon...which was quite a skirmish, not a real war. no one lost or won in that war. however, the lebanese paid too high a price for a maniac that threw them into a war no one in lebanon wanted. he did it for iran. that is the sad part.

god bless them and their incompetence in the ground to air response. these arabs can have the most sophisticated radars and missiles and they won't know how to push a button. the russians as we speak are still showing them how to operate the radars and missiles. well, you can show, but if they are rendered speechless, even a hiss won't come out of them. yes, they shot at the planes. you see, they can't even shoot straight!
