32. Reminds me a little bit of the Cuba Crisis..
Alexander ,   Herzliya, Israel   (03.27.09)
..when the Ruskies placed nuclear missiles on Cuba to cover the US east coast within range to squeeze the Yanks as the Ruskies felt inferior to the US militarily, technologically and strategically. Iranians want Gaza as leverage. Olmert is giving the Iranians just that. Livni and Barak are giving the Iranians the same deal. That's why Olmert, Livni and Barak belong in jail - for life - for high treason.
33. #1 & 2 . Nobody? Surely you're in for a big surprise...
DANNY ,   America   (03.27.09)
You and all your misguided Cretins who serve in the death cult are like fish on a hook and the God of Israel is reeling you in. You think your out of it, living in the USA but you will come, your glee proves it. Sucker!
34. ATTN. Maria from Palestine.
Aaron ,   SF, USA   (03.27.09)
You are Jordanian, Syrian, or Egyptian. NOT Palestinian. You are being used by the larger Arab powers. It has resulted in many of your own to die due to Israel, the sovereign nation, defending itself. That must suck.

36. The Iranian Mullahs are known for their Lunatic tendencies
Magen Israel ,   TA   (03.28.09)
Who in his right mind would threaten a state that is assumed to have hundreds of nuclear weapons.
37. To # 12
BRL ,   USA   (03.28.09)
"It isn't muslims who are interested in killing" If it isn"t Muslims interested in killing why are the killing each other in Iraq and Afganistan? Shiiats killing Sunnies. Sunnies killing Sunnies. Did the Sunnies invade the Shiiat land or did the Shiiat invade the Sunnie land? What about Fatah Killing Hamas, and Hamas killing Fatha?
38. #12
(03.28.09)
so, by the same logic that you show, ISRAIL WAS 100% RIGHT IN ENTERING GAZA AND KILLING THE HAMAS TERRORISM TO STOP THE 8,000 ROCKETS THEY SENT TO KILL ISRAILI CIVILIANS. is this not so??? israil has no right to also DEFEND ITSELF???? MAHMOOD RAMALLAH, PALESTINE
39. NUMBER 24 YOUR FALLING FOR
LARRY ,   US ARMY RETIRED   (03.28.09)
THE SAME ARAB BRAINWASING GAME THAT YOUR PEOPLE DO EVERY TIME .REMEMBER EGYPTS BULL ABOUT SHOVING ISRAEL INTO THE SEA IN 67 AND THERE DEFEAT IN 73, SADAMS BULL ABOUT HIS BIG BAD ARMY CRUSHING THE AMERICANS. WHEN THE TIME COMES IRANS SECOND RATE ARMED FORCES WILL BE DAZED LIKE THE THIRD WORLD NATION THEY ARE.

all you people can read all about it in ezekiel....38 an 39
41. Iran's missiles
Brod ,   USA   (03.28.09)
It would be interesting to see Iran's missiles entering Gaza. When they bring their Trojan Horse into Gaza, the F16s will practise their runs in blasting them. It should be a good test run for the F22s too.
42. To: Haim at No. 35
Sarah ,   New York City, USA   (03.28.09)
Actually, I like Shaul Mofaz. A lot. Some months back, he was interviewed by Christiane Ananpour, and she was her usual ignorant, aggressive self, and asked Minister Mofaz "How far is Israel willing to go to prevent Iran's achievement of nuclear power status." Minister Mofaz leaned back in his chair, looked at her and replied "About 2400 kilometers." I LOVED IT. Shut her mouth, in her tracks. She had absolutely nothing to say after that, and CNN had to cut to a commercial break. ROCK ON, SHAUL MOFAZ; ROCK ON! Truth be told, that was almost the best sex I've ever had.
43. Iran forcing it
Brad ,   USA   (03.28.09)
Yes, they are forcing the issue. And the war will come, and Israel will pound the living hell out of Iran. Then Iran will squeel like pigs (that's how they do everything), to the rest of the world, and the world will try to make Israel the bad guy, again. Puke!
44. Syria now Sudan Israelis are all Moseses RIGHT ???

I throw in Joshua for free alas reality is a different story but when losing six 6 million in a Hallocaust to Adolf Hitler and you come out of it smelling like Moses Roses what more may I say state Israel has a high standard of living I do no not they got money to burn I do no not alas though it is March 2009 what lies ahead war with Syria ??? impossible ???

Thank You... M. S.
45. Iranian Soil Should NOT be Attacked !!!
Maansingh ,   The Netherlands   (03.27.09)
Quote :” the Air Force bombed about two months ago, in Sudan, a shipment of medium-range rockets with a range of 70 kilometers (roughly 40 miles,)” WHEN a shipment of medium-range rockets will enter Gaza Strip -- Israel should give the Gaza inhabitants a seven day period to vacate Gaza Strip. AFTER this seven day period -- Israel should FLATTEN the WHOLE of Gaza Strip. Gaza Strip should be FLATTENED by using the IAF, the Navy and the IDF. BTW for those who leave Gaza Strip -- there is NO right of return. NO Gazans are allowed to return back to Gaza Strip. All property will be CONFISCATED by Israel. BTW Iranian soil should NOT be attacked by Israel !!! It should NOT be done !!! I don’t think it is proper.
46. #12 jews were here before &after arab occupation. constantly
arab occupation   (03.28.09)
even though in small numbers, cause arabs were killing them. before the jews the british ruled, before the british the turks before the turks (ottomans) the egyptians (mamlukes), before mamlukes crusaders. that is 1000 years of arabs being occupied by other empires who didn't know where palestine was, as they divided the area into regions. even the crusader kingdom of jerusalem (200 years)extended into jordan of today, and not palestine. you call yourselves palestinians now, during the mandate this was a name for the jews, and arabs rejected this name. during the mandate many arabs immigrated from the countries around israel, therefore jews who came from zionist motives starting from 1881 precede those immigrants in some cases. but jews lived on this land before the arabs, therefore the arabs are the occupiers

RJBH ,   Methil   (03.28.09)
It will be a wee bit breezy oot that way once we use it...Be good http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article5430133.ece
49. Iran wants to destroy Israel for several reasons :
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (03.28.09)
- It is an outpost of and possible military base for Iran’s primary enemy, the US, in the Middle East. - Israel is one of the few issues guaranteed to unite all Muslims, and championing its destruction allows Iran to obtain influence even with Sunnis, such as Hamas. -Israel sits in the most strategic spot in the Eastern Mediterranean, an area in which Iran wishes to project its power. - Ahmadinejad may have religious reasons for wanting to eliminate Israel. To understand Iran today : http://xrl.us/bejfwz
50. #12 Maria - You have no idea.
(03.28.09)
Its you and your kind that "twist logic". In any case this situation is only getting worse and will end catastrophe. We will never agree it seems.
51. to maria (12)
tiki ,   belgium   (03.28.09)
In the six decades since Israel's founding about 65 000 people were killed (arabs and Israeli's). In the same time MORE than 11 000 000 muslims were killed by their "brother muslims" And there is no end to it! Every day muslims kill other muslims, with bombs, in holy places, in markets, in their own houses. Muslims with "other opinions" are afraid to speak or they will be killed. Why don't you wake up to this reality? Why don't you "protest" this!
52. #48 To the dhimmi in Methil
Cynthia ,   USA   (03.28.09)
Ahmadinejad also bragged about having missiles that could reach Europe and 1600 suicide bombers ready to be dispatched to Europe, the USA and Israel. Be careful what you wish for.
53. Number 44, put down the crackpipe
Jeremy ,   Boston, USA   (03.28.09)
54. Isarel inability
Fahd AlDossary ,   Dammam, KSA   (03.28.09)
The true enemy is the American/westren misguided liberal thinking and possibly fatique from the current wars/economic crises.You are right Mr Fishman , Iran has a clear strategy and it is working .The situation is this : -Hizb Allah is the subcontractor for all things arab /israeli. -Syria is ok to use for logistic and political but not startegic, the Iranians know like everyone else that the Syrian regime key preoccupation is survival with no ideology or Golan concerns.They are merchants whoever pay is my friend today. -Israel will not win with Iran short of regime change type of war which will endanger Isarel permanantly. -The best otion is gradually and steadilt sibvert Iran internally .This will speed the decline that is Iran is undergoing anyhow and will likely change Iran from within.But it cannot be piecemeal or small steps, it has to be multi proged regionally (Persians comprise only 45% of the populations) , economically , politically , security and intelligence apparatus., and assisnations of scieentists and experts.
55. Methil Must Be on Methyl
Robert ,   New Jersey, USA   (03.28.09)
You surely are consuming something other than air! The Gazan's little roman candles can't even hit the broadside of Sderot a few km across the border with any consistency. They had better get a firecracker with a little more accuracy to aim towards Dimona. And, after this skyrocket is blown out of the sky by an IDF Patriot missile, heaven help your hapless, hateful compatriots in Gaza, courtesy of the IDF!
56. 54 Fahd..I wish we had more Posts from You here at Ynet.
RJBH ,   Methil   (03.28.09)
You Clearly have a penetrating Insight to unfolding events in the Middle East. Bless You.

Thats why you live in Canada.
58. to #12
Adam ,   canada   (03.28.09)
"you kill others, you invade other peopls land, you steal their rights, fine, why because you are strong countries" you obviously have never read a book in your life. It is pathetic that you say this. Do some research. 1948. Isreal was a strong country? Because Israeli's were able to stand together and UNIFY while the surrounding Arab states could not? Israel was not stroger. Isreal was smarter. Thank god Arabs hate eachother more than they hate Jews. And with regards to defending your land. Please, again, open a book. Look at any war - there are winners and losers. They unfortunately lost. This is the way the world works. Stop complaining. Move on. Stop firing rockets and maybe you will get some rights back. I hate ignorant people.

Montreal ,   Montreal   (03.28.09)
'the great satan'... and i'm the stupid one? reactionary fool using spent analogies. if iran is so intent on destroying jews, how is it that every one of the 22,000 jews that live there seem to be most content, living AS EQUALS, and actually defend their NATION when idiots like foxman try to defame it?
