1. New palestinian tactic "Shoot a bit" WORKS!!!
uli ,   Jerusalem   (02.21.09)
The Israeli government is still too stupid, too afraid or too leftist or everything togehter to realize that Hizb'Allah and Hamas found the perfect new terrorism deal: Shoot-A-Bit!!! Thus you create the same fear and terror in the israeli population, destroy their saftey, make them think to leave Israel etc. let them know that their government is a children soccer group and at the same time you don't get any serious answer from israel. barak, olmert and livni even stoped to say their EMPTY warnings. JUST DISGUSTING that our government let's this happen! Right government fast!
2. Fire one back at them
GZLives   (02.21.09)
Maybe it will kill a few maybe not ... but why would we care either way if they don't. More importantly why would world opinion care ? They can't if that's how we respond.
3. with bibi in power
alan ,   toronto   (02.21.09)
there wont be more rockets----period !
4. Love how reporters get these photos and provide NO intel
(02.22.09)
to the army (not just of Israel but of any nation)
5. Rockets in the south
Ze'ev ,   Eshkolot, Israel   (02.22.09)
Since our current government is a bunch of feckless fools, perhaps some of our southern citizens will consider taking a name from our neighbors and forming "Popular Resistance Committees." I wonder how difficult it would be to manufacture our own kassams, put them in areas that have been fired on, and just lob a few back, similarly unguided, and let chips (or shrapnel) fall where they may.
6. Where Are The Protests Now
USABorn   (02.22.09)
These actions by Hamas make the U.N. and the Arab League look insane. You want to look into war crimes, look at what Hamas is doing right now. Nobody is going to listen to you anymore. We see the continued bombing of Israel as an act of war. Israel's patience is astounding.
7. rockets
leah ,   us   (02.22.09)
thank G-d it's Bibi! these rockets will be blown up w/their makers and shooters asap!
8. Israel needs its own rockets and self-defense militia
Bennie ,   Jerusalem   (02.22.09)
Israel Defense Industries needs to develop cheap, mass-produced rockets that can be fired back from Ashkelon, Yad Mordechai, Sderot, Metulla, or wherever in Israel receives rocket attacks. Israel also needs self-defense militias to fire back. Enough of the rocket pogroms in Israel.
9. Peace and Hamas.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (02.22.09)
Peace is the last thing Hamas terrorists and gangsters want. Peace means the game is up. Peace means they've disappointed their god. Peace means no more excuses. They couldn't bear peace for six months. This is a war to the bitter end. And we're afraid to admit what it's about. It's not about American sins or Israeli intransigence. It's about a sickness in the soul of a civilization - of Middle-Eastern Islam - that can only be cured from within. More about Hamas and Islam : http://xrl.us/beczox
10. Hamas - The Ultimate Fools
Bill Foonman ,   Jacksonville USA   (02.22.09)
How long do these idiots think that Israel will tolerate ongoing rocket fire once Netanyahu is PM? Are they also too dense to grasp that zero reconstruction aid will be forthcoming as the donors know that Israel will hit Gaza again and deservedly destroy what is left.
11. When Are The Arabs Going to Learn?
Anne M Johnston ,   Edmonton, Canada   (02.22.09)
When are the Arab militants going to learn that if you want peace and prosperity, you must stop attacking Israel. It is unthinkable that these fools have not stopped the rocket fire. It is up to the other Arabs to make them stop, and if they don't , then Israel has every right to fire back and defend it's people. ISRAEL IS NOT TO BLAME< IT IS THE ARABS.
12. Liberation of al-Majdal is a rightful cause
Sayid ,   Sweden   (02.22.09)
13. You cannot negotiate with terrorists!
KIlburn Hall ,   Barrington, IL.   (02.22.09)
You cannot negotiate with terrorists! Period! The only way to deal with terrorists is to "terrorize the terrorists." When more countries around the world realize what Israel has known the last 50-years, only then; will there be a united effort to rid the world of Hamas, Hezbullah, al-Qaida, Taliban.and the drug cartels terrorizing the Mexican border of late. Israel is responding in the only appropriate way it knows how but it will take more than Israel's mighty army to wipe out terrorism. It will take a concerted effort by Russia, China, the U.S., Mexico and other world leaders. KH
