"the lesson is..for the government of Israel....to stop being blindfolded by arrogance and greed..." WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?? When there is a tragedy ANYWHERE in the world, Israel is the 1st or one of the 1st to send rescue teams. In Haiti, the American press were amazed as israel sent the most sofisticated, most prepared, and most efficient medical and rescue team that included even X-Ray machines that nobody else sent. Their tent was a real hospital were many people were operated on; where teams from other countries sent people they couldn't save. The Isaelis have sent teams after Turkish airthquakes. Also to Mexico, to Colombia, to Peru, to India, to Armenia..... They even offered to send to Iran, but they didn't accept. As far as you are concerned, you seem to be the arrogant one and forgive me for saying so, you are an ignoramus and are full of hate. So because Israel also for once got help over a tragedy, it is greedy and arrogant??? How can a country that always sends help, no matter if it's friend or foe, be greedy and arrogant? I would call you an anti-semite. Why? BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T SAY THAT OF OTHER COUNTRIES, AND VERY SPECIALLY NOT ABOUT A COUNTRY THAT IS ALWAYS GENEROUS AND PROMPT TO HELP EVEN IT'S ENEMIES. What do you say of Sudan where millions have been killed in the Christian South and in Darfour? And by the way, Israel has received many Muslims from Darfour as refugees. Has your country? Israel saved Vietnamese boat people that the world would let die at sea and gave them a home. So get informed before you write nonsense. Israel may not be perfect, but it is generous and helpful as few other countries are. There are some people like you who are always reading Israeli newspapers just so you can find ugly things to say about that country and the Jews, no matter the subject. GET A LIFE!!

You're a couple of Honies, thanks a million. And thanks to all others who helped Israel in their day of despair.

Well done to all the foreign firefighters and Israeli ones too who assisted in extinguishing the forest fires. This is what co-operation and unity is all about.

This tragedy shows that many , many countries will help us , the same way like we help others. We are being criticized for the occupation, but helped in case of human needs!!! let's stop the political-religious wave of fear, and start to built a progressive, strong and well manage country.
