1. Wait Until Ashkelon" Chemical Works Gets Hit
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (01.15.08)
La di da, just more of the same, or should I say, ho hum! If I were an Israeli I would be mad as hell. I mean, give us all a break, more of the same and getting worse. Now 30 rockets hit Israel, and virtually nothing is done about it by the IDF or Israeli gov't. Sure, a small group of tanks pounded the ousskirts of Gaza City, and a few rockets were launched targeting militants. So what? They (the Arabs) have an inexhaustable supply of men to lose, who, believe, they will go to Arab heaven with 72 virgins. Until Israel get serious, nothing will change in the M.E. What is needed is 24-7 bombing by Israel of vital PALs targets..make them hurt and bleed and beg for mercy. If the Arabs want war, better now then when Iran has the "bomb" and throws it's weight around. Killing the leader's son, is but a pin prick. Can anyone imagine if a Katy hits a chemical plant, or school, in Ashkelon? Then what?
2. 30 Qassams-a-day to Sderot
Nora   (01.15.08)
3000 already left town. Next comes Ashkelon as three Katyoushas already proved it. And Olmert ? He wants to uproot settlements as Sharon did in Gaza.
3. What's the reason for the sharp "right" turn
Joseph P. ,   JewRusalem   (01.15.08)
to show Israeli victims with blood on their faces, which was reserved until now only for Arabs???
4. Long overdue to enforce a buffer zone!
David ,   Houston   (01.15.08)
Simple solution, any land used to launch rockets and mortars is declared a closed buffer zone. Give notice for the civilians to evacuate and then bomb it until it is empty, then just fence it off and enforce a closed military zone.
5. Israel Had Red Lines
Marcel ,   Florida   (01.15.08)
Long ago we used to hear from the retreat and surrender Israeli leaders that Israel would not allow the Palestinian's to cross certain red lines such as fireing missiles into Israeli cities. Now Israel no longer ahs any red lines ,all sacraficed for the no peace Road Map.
6. Hey Richard! A good article to copy and paste anti-Israel BS
Korem ,   New York, USA   (01.15.08)
Where are you? We're all waiting!
7. Arabs understand POWER and RESPECT POWER!
Joseph P. ,   JewRusalem   (01.15.08)
Olmert’s mad "goodwill gestures" and restraint for Arabs means they have the upper hand because the Prime Minister is a powerless coward. And they're right! They DO have the upper hand because Olmert the weakling is afraid to fight back and afraid to lose the "good" impression he strived to create for himself with the anti-Semitic nations of the world, while neglecting the security of the state.
8. More Rockets hit Sderot
Mel Fishman ,   Bowie, Maryland USA   (01.15.08)
Enough is enough. Many residents had left and the lousey Hamas has gotten its way. While in Korea years ago the Chinese bombarded our troops for 24 hours. We couldn't even sleep. All because we lobbed one shell into their camp. This was most effective. Continuous bombardment will certainly discourage the arabs. If they fire from civilian territory (which they do) it is fair game to hit back. My heart goes out for the people of Sderot. I am sorry about the Equadorian who was shot in the back by these nasty bastards. Why does Olmert want to deal with them. The only answer is total defeat of the Pals.
9. Don't whine now!
IRAN#1   (01.16.08)
You asked for it and you are getting it.
10. what you expect ?
(01.16.08)
The IDF killed 11 before you think they will send you flowers and still more to come , it's bloody endless war between two people one fights for their rights and one fight for what they stolen and believe that it's their rights .
11. WHAT ISRAEL DOES AFFECTS JEWS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD
WAR MAKES PEACE ,   ..............DACON9   (01.16.08)
12. Payback?
J K ,   NYC, USA   (01.16.08)
What I dont understand is why Israel isnt pummeling Gaza City with 155mm shells? 40 Qassams and mortars in a day? Ludicrious? What other country would put up with this on a daily basis. If the Fakestinians think they have it bad with the occasional missile into a car of bad guys, Israel should be showing them what Hamas/IJ's actions can truly bring them. They think they are miserable and trapped now? Why doesnt anyone do anything for the citizens of Israel? Answer: He's bald and doesnt care.
13. That's the product of Israel's painful concessions in Gaza
Avraham ,   NYC   (01.16.08)
Are you Israelis ready to make more withdrawals and painful sacrifices in Yehuda v'Shomron and have missiles fly into Ben Gurion International Airport and Tel Aviv?
14. #9 Iran
Israeli Israeli ,   tel aviv   (01.16.08)
The Arabs (including Palestinians) killed 1 million Iranians, including with Scuds and poison gas against civilians. Why do you support the Arabs against the Israelis who only helped you?
15. #14, it's very simple
IRAN#1   (01.16.08)
As long as Israelis and Arabs fight, they have no time to bother Iran. It's cold but it's the truth and since you and your arab "cousins" are dumb enough to keep fighting, it's in Iran's ineterest to make sure both sides lose.
16. "power outage" in Sderot?
Zooog   (01.16.08)
WTF? Israel should make sure that there is a permanent power outage in Gaza.
17. when is Israel going to do something about this?
katya ,   us   (01.16.08)
18. residents of sderot,have you gone mad?
chaim ,   brooklyn n.y   (01.16.08)

19. ISRAEL IS TO BLAME...............
andy ,   orlando,u.s   (01.16.08)
BY NOT CARPET BOMBING GAZA TO BITS.ISRAEL NEEDS TO TAKE THE GLOVES OFF AND TEACH HAMAS A LESSON NEVER TO FORGET>CRUSH AND OBLITERATE THESE TERRORISTS.SEVER ALL ELECTRICITY AND ALL SUPPLIES TO GAZA.
20. 12 don't watch alot of sincefiction movies
(01.16.08)
Your post shows how naive and politic ignorant you are ... write about Donald Duck better .... your American governments did more than enough in the last 60 years to Israel and gave then the green light to kill thousends of civilians and the whole world was just watching , the Israelian massacers against the Palistinians and the Lebanese can not be counted ... you didn't know this ... are you still that young ... did they wash your brain any how here is it ... read and learn . http://www.deathmasters.com/ http://thewebfairy.com/nerdcities/Palestine/war-criminals.htm
21. didn't you guys like kill the son of a Hamas Leader
question man   (01.16.08)
yesterday? I mean what do you expect in return, I am not taking sides I am just saying, you know, if his son died, even if he is a terrorist this guy now has more reason to order his forces to throw rockets. I mean this guy is probably really mad now, thats what I think. Zahar or something is his name.
22. Don't fall into the Trap. We need responsibl leadership now
Squalid Ibn Harman ,   Qtir   (01.16.08)
Now it is absolutely essential that we first dump Olmert into a home for the senile and get some responsible leadership. It is very clear that Hamas is setting a trap and inviting Olmert to fall into it. You can bet that much of Gaza is boobytrapped waiting for a major invasion of IDF. We should not fall into this trap. Instead we should not risk Israeli lives. We should immediately cut all gas, electricity, water, and all fertizlizer and other supplies to Gaza. We should begin a campaign of constant bombardment, day and night, using mortars and inexpensible, highly inaccurate Qassam-like rockets to return the same non-focuses terror back on Gaza until the beg for mercy or we totally level Gaza. We cannot afford another fiasco like Lebanon 2 where the enemy can twist it into a victory. We need to both continue to keep up the targeted assasinations, greatly increasing the numbers, while bombarding and cutting off Gaza until they are totally destroyed while we absolutely minimize Israeli losses to none!
23. UN
Noah ,   USA   (01.16.08)
If the Israelis sent missles into the palestinian areas, The UN and the world would condem the Israelis. Why don't we hear from the UN about the missles into Israel?
24. PEACE NOW CAN TAKE AN ACTIVE PART TO BRING ABOUT PEACE
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (01.16.08)
""PEACE NOW " IS SILENT AND DOES NOT VOICE ITS MOUTH ANDFURIOUSLY PROTEST TO HAMAS. THEY HAVE FREE WILL OF COURSE BUT HAVE NOT COUNTED THEMSELVES IN WITH THE "MITZVA" OF "THOU SHALT NOT MURDER" AS VEHEMENTLY AS THEY SHOULD HAVE.ONE WAY THEY CAN OVERCOME THIS SET-BACK TO THEIR CREDIBILITY IS TO SPEND TIME IN S'DEROT ,AND ADDRESSING THE ARAB LEADERS WHO SUPPORT THE SUSTAINED INDISCRIMINATE BOMBARDMENT AND TELL THEM ABOUT THE DAMAGE THAT THIS IS HAVING TO THEIR CAUSE.IT WOULD BE NICE IF THEY COULD THUS FIELD A SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE AS A FUTURE PRIME MINISTER OF ISRAEL AND WORK FOR JUSTICE FOR THE WHOLE OF ISRAELI SOCIETY...,WHICH APPEARS TO BE LACKING AT THE MOMENT!
25. Olmert Fiddles while Sderot Burns
rh ,   Modiin Israel   (01.16.08)
Gaza must be attacked. A security zone must be established in Gaza and the population evacuated from it. Electricity and Fuel must be stopped. Any other country in the world would be reacting to the shelling of one of its towns. Israel reaction is totally disproportionate.
26. Reading with discust
Roland Smith ,   Canada   (01.16.08)
Reading these talk back understand how many sick minded posted here.Poor palestinian they got the most black hearted ennemy in the world.
27. you want to keep schoolsopen when hamas says they will more
(01.16.08)
do more and get revenge? i dontthink that is wise for the kids
28. #21 u stupid or something?
jerome ,   basalt, co   (01.16.08)
29. What is the limit?
Daniel ,   Tel Aviv   (01.16.08)
What is the maximum number of Qassams and Katyushas we are willing to allow to be fired upon us? How many israelis have to be hurt? How much property damage must we incur? What is the limit? Someone tell me... Why doesn't the IDF finally take care of this? Targeted killings work only to a point. Vietnam had no exit strategy (nor does Iraq) but we have no solution strategy. Israel is losing because we are fighting with both hands tied behind our back by our own government! It is time to respond with real force. Civilian casualties are a shame but no longer should be a concern..one warning from us to civilians to leave and then rain bombs from heaven on any area of Gaza from which a rocket was fired. If that flattens the entire area so be it...then give the whole mess to Egypt. It was a mistake to keep it in the first place.
