1. ALL of Canaan is an EVERLASTING possession of the Jews
David ,   NYC   (03.07.09)
Hashem has made a covenant with the Israelites (Jews) through Abraham that ALL, ALL, ALL, ALL of the land of Canaan (Israel) is for the Jewish people for an EVERLASTING possession. Don’t break this covenant. This is Hashem’s blessing onto the Jewish people. We have learned throughout history of the dire consequences of breaking our covenants with Hashem. Don’t be pressured by unbelievers and world leaders. They don’t matter. Hashem is our savior. Israel has been our land for THOUSANDS of years. Those that have afflicted pain, suffering, destruction, conquest, occupation and death upon the Jewish people throughout the centuries will be dealt with on Judgment Day. After the occupations, destruction, exiles, genocide, holocaust and wars, the Jewish people exist today only because of Hashem. We believe in the Moshiach and pray every day for his coming. Genesis 17- 7 And I will establish My covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a G-d unto thee and to thy seed after thee. 8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their G-d.' 9 And G-d said unto Abraham: 'And as for thee, thou shalt keep My covenant, thou, and thy seed after thee throughout their generations. 10 This is My covenant, which ye shall keep, between Me and you and thy seed after thee: every male among you shall be circumcised.
2. Replace “peace” with strength and determination.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (03.07.09)
Current proposals like the Road Map are totally unworkable and should be abandoned. Considering the fact that the only possible relations between the Muslims and the non-Muslims are war or a limited ceasefire, it follows that the word “peace” should be deleted from Israel’s lexicon as well as the notion of peace with the Arabs as a viable, political possibility. The maximum that Israel can aim for is a limited ceasefire or an armistice, taking into consideration that the Arab side will violate it at any time, as the Palestinians have been proving on a daily basis since the signing of the Oslo Accords in September 1993. The solution to the Israelo-Arab problem should be find elsewhere as explained at : http://xrl.us/bi7ku
3. #1 David YES!
petra ,   uSA   (03.07.09)
if we forget our Father, He will forget us. Worse, He will punish us. Sahlom
4. Oops! Shalom!!!! ( early)
petra ,   uSA   (03.07.09)
5. 1#,David, follow your own advice and make aliyah
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISREAL   (03.07.09)
6. Good job, keep it up
Amitabh Bacchan ,   Mumbai, India   (03.07.09)
Show to the world the stupid people telling the world they do for sake of Allah is fooling themselves. Love to live, not to die. If you choose later, Israel will give you.
7. stop bombing sand, flood tunnels with sea water
Michael Hessler ,   Maale Adumim, Israel   (03.07.09)
Bombing sand doesn't stop the smugglers but flooding their tunnels would. No need for expensive solutions involving concrete wall liners. Series of crude unlined narrow trenches or ponds pumped full of sea water will put the hurt on the tunnels. These trenches don’t need to be contiguous. Occasional blasting in these saturated areas will be cheaper and more effective that bombing sand with jet airplanes. Army engineering groups just need to be allowed by the government to do it. They should start where ever they feel are good spots to drown tunnel rats.
8. stopped smuggling, started attrition of Israeli weapons
observer   (03.07.09)
now they are doing a much better piece of work.
9. tunnel hit
alexi   (03.08.09)
Big bloody deal, barak hit one tunnel. hnaiyeh is laughing all the way to mosque.IDF had to retake philadelphi and take senior hamas captive to trade for shalit. This they could have done with commando raids without going into the heart of gaza. Barak is a very good commando and can be an advisor on strategy, but not the head man.Israel is no better off now than before cast lead. And olmert, a more gutless coward israel would not find in 100 years. He, his 2 sons who ran away from israel and his wife who should have run away from ehud long ago will now have time to visit him in jail. Mazuz and benish want to spare olmert from jail but his crimes are too many. Go away already!
10. Tunnels are money makers....
Ezra ,   sandiego   (03.08.09)
These tunnels are being bankrolled by someone one, and that should be the storyline. Kids can make $200 a day, and more, to dig these tunnels, and they don't care what goes through them. Get my point? Who is bankrolling these holes?
