31. Israel Will Regret Reprisals
Lawrence Tendler ,   Safed Israel   (12.24.08)
Israel is already regretting it and has not reprised yet...
32. Hamas misunderstands Israeli public opinion.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (12.24.08)
They see our cowardly appeasement-minded public officials, they hear the empty threats from our blow-hard MK's, they read our Left-wing bleeding heart media, & they think this is Israel. Boy, are they mistaken. The day is coming when we will get rid of these useless parasites that now form our gov't. & then, Hamas, watch out. Ynet could not even print what many of us contemplate for Gaza. And world opinion will not stop us either.
33. Hamas and the Gates of Hell
mike ,   Seattle, USA   (12.24.08)
So let me get this straight. Hamas says, "If you try to prevent us from trying to destroy Israel and killing Jews whenever we want, we will get really mad. Then, we will try to destroy Israel and kill Jews whenever we want." And the Israeli government acts with restraint so as not to upset the "peace process". This makes a lot of sense.
34. The pigs of "peace" must be crushed.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (12.24.08)
35. Gates of Hell
Tamir ,   Los Angeles   (12.24.08)
As a people we jews have seen the gates of hell many times. Let this be a reminder to all those wanting our extermination that we will never forget the holocaust and never let it happen again. Although we are a small population we jews are a proud and strong people. I personally know of thousands of Israelis ranging all ages that are now living outside of Israel who would drop everything they are doing and come back to fight for Israel if it was on the brink of destruction. Hamas, you threaten us with the gates of hell? watch what you say cause you have yet to see even one small iota of the true might of the jewish people
36. where;s Jane, Richard and their friends??
Ilana   (12.24.08)
Funny how when Israel is visciously attacked the righteous shut their mouths. We shoot two bullets and their anti Jewish hatred is spewed as fast as the article is printed. When the other side is the aggressor they disappear into their ignorant holes and turn off their Jew Watch and other anti jewish propoganda sites and papers. But as soon as something arises that they can stick their teeth into, the monsters wakes up! Their main problem is that they are soooooooo lopsided one cannot take their beliefs too seriously and it is only annoying how ignorant they are. Where do you begin?
37. re:terry #32 just as you say-i'm for testing neutron bombs
next door ,   in gaza   (12.24.08)
just to make that they work,after all the hamas gazans want to die in their jihad so they can get their heavenly 72 she camels---and we want peace on earth . we would be doing both ourselves a favor?
38. Hamas vows to protect our people
Yonatan ,   Jerusalem   (12.24.08)
you brave and fearless freedom fighters to protect your people you need to stand infront of them,
39. never hit soft
irv ,   phila, pa   (12.24.08)
Amen/ I fully agree However, you're not dealing with rational people. You have to tell them that if they continue their infrastructure will be destroyed and then them. Irv
40. Didn't open the gates of hell when we killed yassin
Danny   (12.24.08)
and then the dog flap of hell when we killed Ratanzi... Wierd, then that after that we got the longest period of quiet from Gaza in years.
41. Huge misunderstanding !
(12.24.08)
As Terry put it, Hamas has really made the wrong decisions all the way. They sort of read the passage but failed to understand it because their reading comprehension abilities are extremely limited. Mostly, they do not take into account the following: 1. Israelis will not tolerate their aggression endlessly. 2. Public anger has been building up for quite some time and action must be taken by IDF against Hamas terrorists. 3. Hamas cannot pound and bombard Israeli towns, kibbutz and agricultural settlements without a well deserved retribution for it. 4. Hamas cannot turn thousands of Israeli lives into a living hell and at the same time demanding a massive inflow of goods, food stuff, medicine and oil for themselves. 5. Hamas will soon come to a well deserved end brought on themselves by their own very hands. 6. Hamas should immediately and unconditionally return power to the legally elected Fatah and then get the hell out of Gaza for good. 7. Hamas are anyway losers because they have inflicted hardships on their own, as well. It is therefore expected to soon witness internal blood shed for all their criminal activities against their own people. 8. Most ridiculous, Hamas cannot shower Israeli towns with their rockets and at the same time threaten to kill us all if we dare defend ourselves. So, Hamas maybe ridiculous and stupid for all I care, but it will not be allowed to continue this aggravation for much time.
42. Simply Stop Firing qassams and seek real peace Not HUDNA
Psalms83 ,   Selah   (12.24.08)
and in a reasonable time you will find israel a friendly and co-opertive people.... Hamas Fatah and Hezbelah is the palistinian peoples worst enemy
43. The Gates of Hell
Gershon ,   USA   (12.24.08)
should open soon for the Hamas terrorists and anyone connected to them. Meshaal should be the first to enter, followed by the rest of those murderers.
44. Only Likud has the serious attitude to fix the problem
Gideon Reader   (12.24.08)
Prisoner#39 Irv A self inflicted wound by Labor which Kadima allowed to become infected. You see Irv, the "infrastructure" in Gaza is provided at the behest of, or by Israel. the kadimacrat government refuses to remove the power, water, sewage treatment, infrastructure and continues to supply funds, food, potable water , electricity, etc. to Hamas run Gaza. Without the political will or more grossly put; without the "baytzim" to effectlively perform in a seriously offensive fashion, all words or "show strikes" against Gaza is futile.
45. In other news...
Ynet's Competitor ,   The Levant   (12.25.08)
Husband charged with beating wife defends self with claim "she made me do it".
46. 30 Igor
Chufut ,   Qale   (12.25.08)
What happened during the Lebanon War does not prove that military operations against terrorists were useless, only that that particular operation did not succeed as planned (*points finger accusatorily at inept strategyless government*).
47. 'military wing'? impovershed Gaza?' Ynet adopting Hamas rhet
shneerhere ,   USA   (12.25.08)
Ynet now adopting Hamas's rhetoric? Their 'military wing', as you write it, blows up civilian buses. How many global 'militaries' intentionally and conspiratorally do that? I think I'm done with www. HamasNet.com
48. Hamas must not be allowed to dictate to us
Kim ,   israel   (12.25.08)
We need to seriously kick-ass - hard and without conscience. They need to be dealt a blow that will shake them to the very core of their miserable existence. Bomb the hell out of Gaza!!!!!
49. Fight terrorism with all your might!
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.25.08)
History reveals very clearly that the apathetic give way to the passionate and the complacent are subdued by the committed. This is the time for people to rise up and defend our freedoms. Defeating global terrorism is the single most important issue of our time. It is more important than global warming, than welfare reform, than stem cell research, even than reproductive rights. And that’s because none of those issues can be addressed if we’ve been subjugated to Islamic fundamentalist terrorism. punish them where it hurts most as explained at : http://xrl.us/biz8x
