1. and destroy the illegal 155 mm artillery
observer ,   Egypt   (04.10.11)
2. And so it begins ...
American Jew Realist ,   New Jersey, USA   (04.10.11)
Military occupation & population transfers continuing over 40 years with no international support including our USA is unsustainable ... Israel needs to radically change her status quo!
3. Since When Did "Proportionate" Response Do Anything?
Dallas ,   Canada   (04.10.11)
All that does is help justify and bring a moral equivalence to Hamas' terrorism. We still would be fighting WW2 if it were fought that way. Of course the Arab League would be calling for this. Let's impose a 'no incitement' zone on the Arab world instead. What's wrong with this world, when hatred and belligerence are tolerated and then blamed on the victims? Disgusting.
4. no-fly zone for rockets being fired from them ....?
(04.10.11)
5. did they even TALK about syria?
(04.10.11)
oh, right i forgot, the arab league doesn't actually talk about anything related to arabs.
6. fine, no need to fly. just send aimless shells at gaza
(04.10.11)
7. Turkish PM
larry butler ,   Israel kibbutz niroz   (04.10.11)
Turkish PM should guard his tongue, ever time he opens his mouth trash comes out !
8. The Arab League? LOL
David ,   On this planet   (04.10.11)
Are they any normal Arab countries left with any leaders to have an Arab league. What does Amr Mussa represent? LOL
9. Gaza should impose a NO SHELLING ZONE
Rosie   (04.10.11)
It is a disgrace that almost a Million Israeli Citizens need to live in Shelters while Gaza goes on a shelling spree. Mr. Amr Mussa needs to tell HIS PEOPLE to stop shelling Israel, to stop using their own citizens as human sheilds, to stop using the UN, hospitals, schools and mosques as their storage for arms and points from which they shell. What a disgrace to humanity.
10. Arab League didn't want a no fly zone in Libya!
(04.10.11)
11. And a no fly zone in Kurdish Turkey region and Syria too
(04.10.11)
12. A response
Gershon ,   Kfar Saba, Israel   (04.10.11)
To Amr Mussa: How about a no-fly zone for terrorist rockets and missiles over Israel? To the Turkish government: A suitable response to an organisation which deliberately targets schoolchildren is one which makes sure that the attack never happens again. If it needs the obliteration of Gaza to ensure that aim, then that is the suitable and proportionate response.
13. Gaza is the blueprint for the "rest" of the
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (04.10.11)
"peace process"...the positive thing about Gaza is, that it shows the true intentions of the Arabs, both inside and ouside of the Gaza territory...the "peace process" unfolding life...
14. How about no firing rockets from civilian areas zone
Zev ,   Israel   (04.10.11)
15. 'Arab League wants Gaza no-fly zone' ....LooooooooooooL
Salma ,   Palestine   (04.10.11)
Do you need a UN resolution?!!!!! if you're serious just go in and impose a no-fly zone tomorrow!
16. Time for Israel to stop....
cj ,   paris france   (04.10.11)
Listening to ´the French, Turks , the E:U or anyone else and really blast hamas once and for all. No cease fire with hamas scum, keep fighting them until they beg in public for mercy. I want to see hams kneeling and begging for Israel to stop. nothing less will do. Keep fighting islaic terror Israel, you are doing a good job.
17. amr mussa(moses/moshe) needs to shut up
david ,   uk   (04.10.11)
18. This weekend 16 palestinains died and 80 syrians
Plise   (04.10.11)
what does the arabic league focuses on? of course.
19. What A Joke
Xalo ,   USA   (04.10.11)
Just like Glen Beck said,... first use Libya as a precedent to invade a country to "protect" the citizens, then once accepted turn around and use it on Israel. I am speechless by the hypocrisy in the world, Jew or Non-Jew,... in the end like it or not, Israel is the head corner stone of the West, .... BTW, I would like to see Nato try a No Fly Zone over Israel,....GOOD LUCK I am sure that with France in the lead it will succeed no doubt,.... (not)....
20. Improve iron dome to not only intercept the rockets
(04.10.11)
but to automatically send a missile at the location of which the rockets were lunched. This is a pretty clear message to the militants that if they fire at us, they might as well be firing at themselves. they are in control of their own fate.
21. Don't forget to ban the use of the illegal defense system.
da Warldo   (04.10.11)
and also make it illegal for israelis to go into bomb shelters. call it the 'sitting ducks' law.
22. RIDICULOUS RESPONSE
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (04.10.11)
Here we go again, with a blame the victim mentality. They want to condemn Israel for a "disproportional response", instead of condemning Hamas for starting this to begin with, in makes no sense? Beyond playing to the "the Arab Street" nobody in their right mind will agree with this foolish stance. It completely ignores the instigators of this conflict, Hamas? But at least the world can see how bias these groups and countries are, with no concept of reality. When Israel is attacked...unprovoked...with over 120 rockets, what should the Israeli response be? To immediately accept a ceasefire offer by the people who attacked them, and now offer a ceasefire only to prevent retaliation? Who would go for that?
23. Who will impose it?
NewMan   (04.10.11)
Besides the fact that Israel is acting well within it's legal boundaries in international law. Who would be able to impose such a thing? Egypt and Jordan are out, lest they wish to break their respective peace treaties and trigger an all out war. Most European countries are having a hard time sending sorties to Libya. Israel is farther away and equipped with a far superior air force. Turkey could try and then get shot down. Russia and China do not care that much. Leaving only the US. Considering that the US will most likely veto this in the security council. I don't see whom he is asking? Maybe Israel can impose it's own no fly-zone! No flying of rockets against our civilian population that is...
24. Their cynicism is umbelievable!
Keren ,   IL-BR   (04.10.11)
UMBELIEVABLE!
25. Israel reprisals x civilian losses
Helena ,   Israel   (04.10.11)
When the terrorists fighters stop using civilians as a shield, then when there is a retaliation the civilians will not be hurt. However , this is not their intention...no "fair play" from the terrorists side brings -unfortunatelly- deaths and damages to civilians.
26. Wow
Hakim ,   Palestine   (04.10.11)
that's a great idea...
27. It's OK to launch antitank missles against schoolbuses...
Essie HaKohane ,   Florida, USA   (04.10.11)
but not OK for Israel to defend herself. Firebomb Gaza City and get it over with!
28. Egypt should instead be talking to their "best buds" Hamas
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (04.10.11)
Since the overthrow of Mubarak, Egypt has become both more supportive and more protective of Hamas. But instead of telling them to stop firing rockets, they're providing "cover" for their aggression. Here's a piece of advice to the Israel-hating Moussa: Israel is not Libya. And no country should dare try to confront the IAF over Gaza. They do so at their own peril.
29. I think the blah blah league should take care of Syrian
Israeli ,   Jerusalem thecapital   (04.10.11)
citizens. Last time I heard, these citizens were slaughtered like there's no tomorrow by their own loving government. But I guess it's far more important to hate the Jews rather than loving and caring for your own people. Hating Israel and hating the Jews is really what the Arab blah blah league was founded for.
30. No Fly Zone in Gaza
JUDAH THE LION   (04.10.11)
NO one will dare to declare NO FLY ZONE over GAZA. Israel will shoot down their fighters jet like flies.
