1. Secret is out: This is why Turks need the spy satellite
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (10.05.10)
They want to identify targets in Europe, coordinate terrorist activities, and impede the counterrorism law enforcement. Long Live Free Kurdistan!
2. They always seem to want "revenge" when we fight back
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (10.05.10)
They kill our troops, we respond with drone attacks. They want revenge! They capture French tourists, the French send special forces to rescue them. They want revenge! Palestinians send rockets and suicide bombers to attack Israelis; Israel takes out their commanders. They want revenge! Imad Mugniyeh is responsible for hundreds of lives - American, Israeli and others. Someone finally takes him out. They REALLY want revenge! Maybe if they stopped trying to kill us we wouldn't have to act in our own defense. And they could cut the crap about "revenge".
3. The EU superpower V Pakistani donkey famers with bomb belts
Daniel Shacker ,   JSLM   (10.05.10)
I watched a depressing documentary on 'what if' the USA and the EU went to war - which would be the only real competitor, not some donkey farmers with belt bombs from Pakistan, the answer was there would be no winners, just two obliterated continents, a larger Atlantic ocean and millions of dead. I think Europe can well defend itself against a bunch of peasants from Wakistan or whatever it's called.
4. 1: What kind of B.S is that?

5. :: Genuine Tosefta - #1
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (10.05.10)
Well it has been a while since you published under the name “Genuine Tosefta”. I think the last time was about the time you said to Birdi that you were going to impersonate various posters here on Ynet. To quote: "I did it on Haaretz website too and several of them changed their names in frustration or disappeared altogether, until a year ago when Haaretz censors caught on and stopped publishing all posts I made under any name, so I quit wasting my time and energy with them for no results. I suggest that we band together and flood the commentary sections under their names and you will see how many will vanish. My guess is most of them" (Genuine Tosefta, Tveria (01.18.10)) Tell me how is that work out for you? All that energy and time - what results do you have to show for it?

fighting asymetrical warfare as terrorists fight in a way which is not considered moral by us (democratic nations). So they terrorize civilians, murder to frighten, capture in order to shame us while bolstering their own internal standing, also terrorize their own kind so that they have no opposition from within, commonly use children, women and seniors as human shields so that we often refuse to oppose them and force, cajole, train and wheedle their own kind into acting as human fodder in the guise of suicide bombing. In order to beat them, we are also forced to use some of their own methods, i.e., assassinations and scare tactics, and also forgoe our own moral standards at times by going after them knowing that civilians on their side will suffer as a result. The allies did this in WWII in bombing Dresden, Nagaski and Hirojima. Had we not done that, many of our troops, perhaps a million, would have been slaughtered or maimed and our own war efforts would have taken a year or two longer to conclude. Sherman's "March through Georgia" is a case in point. It was terribly destructive but, on the other hand, it demoralized the south and helped shorten the length of the American Civil War. Sherman made no apology. He said it was far less destructive to destroy the enemy all at once than to allow the war effort to continue on in pieces in a way which would have allowed the suffering casued by war to continue. In this case, the West must become much tougher minded. The enemy (Islamofascists) understand but one thing -- force! In Israel today a debate rages, those who wish to appease the enemies and, by doing so, figure that the enemy can be won over, those who wish to fight but according to the Marquis of Queensberry Rules and those who advocate using unmitigated force. Those who advocate appeasement simply do not understand, or do not wish to understand, the mindset of their enemies. Those who wish to play by the "Rules" are admirable creatures who don't understand the reality of the situation. Those who are willing to unleash as much force as possible inusure the likely possibility of winning. Those will be the ones who will be around the day after and will have survived. Apologies can come after.
10. Europe in danger but Israel is the "bad one"!
David ,   Karmiel, Israel   (10.06.10)
Terrorist attacks in Pakistan. NATIO soldiers killed. Fuel tanker blown up. British diplomats injured in terror attack in Yemen in which Austrians was killed. Today, British Secretary State for Defense, Liam Fox MP, stated at the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham that "the world is more dangerous than at any other time in recent memory." But what to the British, the Europeans and, to a certain extent, the Americans do? They constantly bash Israel, condemn us and try to force Israel to make decisions which will endanger the lives of every Israeli, Jew, Christian or Arab, while their own countries are being invaded by fanatical Muslims obsessed with world domination. They close their eyes and ears to the words of Imam Anjem Choudary : “We do believe as Muslims the East and the West will be governed by the Sharia,” Choudray. “Indeed we believe that one day the flag of Islam will fly over the White House. Indeed, there's even an oration of the Prophet where he said, ‘The day of judgment will not come until a group of my...’” on Christiane Amanour's Oct 3 edition of "This week". http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2010/10/tolerance-flag-of-islam-will-fly-over.html One can only draw one conclusion when one looks at the situation in the Western Countries. Anti-Semitism is clouding the judgment of the Governments in Europe and the US. The only other possibility is that Europe, the USA, Australia, New Zealand and others are so terrified of Islamic violence that they will do anything, including contribute to Israel's demise, to appease the Muslims.
11. Alarm Bells Are Ringing In Europe
John ,   London, UK   (10.06.10)
The previous 10 years in Europe has been under the control of the Socialists who are obsessed with equality to the point of suicide of their nations. They cannot help themselves attaching themselves to the perception of the "underdog" and therefore are easily infulenced by the victimhood propoganda of the Islamic Jihadists. The press is also totally left leaning especially the BBC who are controlled by middle class socialists & Political correctness propogandists. In their view a minority cannot be blamed. In fact the BBC struggle to even mention the Islam or Muslims in a negative story, However the last 12 months has seen many radical steps away from the fairy tale of multiculturism. If you speak about politics with anybody in the UK the subject of Islam. Simple lesson in humanity. Israel could "eradicate" all Arab nations but CHOOSES not too. The Islamists would "eradicate" all Jews and Israel but CANNOT. To show such restraint against so much violence is something no Western European Government has ever acheived. The Islamic world should do well to remember that if at the moment we are trying to improve the middle east via military forces. In a couple of seconds that could change to an offensive operation of distruction if the people so choose. How does the "Great Wall of Israel" sound.
