Keren ,   IL-BR   (06.06.11)
34. Disturbed
Simcha ,   NYC USA   (06.06.11)
Mrs. Clinton should really be disturbed about our good allies in Pakistan who knew of and harbored the devil who was responsible for killing over 3,000 of our citizens. Is she disturbed that they took billions of dollars from us and laugh behind her back? Is she disturbed over the hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians the US has killed in 3 current, unwarranted wars that is bankrupting the US? Is she disturbed about the thousands of US troops killed and the untold amount of injured whose houses are foreclosed cause returning soldiers cant afford to pay their mortgage? I don't care how many miles she puts in flying around the world. Nothing gets accomplished anyway- all talk. She is a hag and needs to retire along with her boss who is also all talk..

36. QUESTION FOR HILLARY CLINTON
LAWRENCE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (06.06.11)

37. US EMBASSY STAFF SHOULD READ #19

Gee, our feelings exactly.
38. ADVISORS
john Darren ,   cairns-Australia   (06.06.11)
I am deeply worried too about US. Who the hell are Obama's and Hilary's advisors.Obama is not good for America and the rest of the world and certainly no friend of Israel.In fact,he should be impeached because he is not doing his job and letting the American people down.People are content when they have jobs and are healthy and don't fight other countries wars. Yes ,by all means help hunt down terrorists that threaten U. and other countries.Also look after the vets- after all the President is responsible for their disabilities and well being.
39. I too am deeply troubled
TeachX3 ,   Heartland, USA   (06.06.11)
I stand with you Israel... I live in America, but my thoughts and prayers are always with you. Not only do you have every right to defend your nation, you have the right not to be scolded by a nation who has forced it's patriotic young men (and women) into ILLEGAL and immoral wars across the globe. Please forgive the audacity of this administration and know that "WE THE PEOPLE" are working on rectifying the wrongs. 2012 cannot come soon enough! Again, there are MANY of us, the people of The United States of America, who are praying for the peace of Jerusalem and who do NOT agree with obama and most all of this administration.
40. "Deeply troubled?"
Mark ,   USA   (06.06.11)
Gee, what a hyprocrite Your Thighness..you're troubled by the violence? How about the violence by Assad against his people..how about that one Hill baby? How about taking action against Syria for their butchery? Nah, so much easier to get on Israel's case. I guess the Leftist BS just keeps on comin'.
41. US State Department
OnTheOtherSide ,   USA   (06.06.11)
Long time ago I worked through the State Department, my then boss always told me how anti Israel the State department is, well nothing changed in 45 years and with the likes of Jimmy Carter and Obama they are really having a field day.
42. US 'deeply troubled' at killings on Israel-Syria border
Avi ,   NY   (06.06.11)
Tell Clinton and her State Dept.. to go FK themselves.. They are not troubled when Syria has killed over 1200 people.
43. poor hilary
igal ,   usa   (06.06.11)
how will hilary react if thousands of mexicans cross the border-perhaps she will give them some cheese burgers with freedom fries.israel is the only jewish state and was right to protect its borders with force. This is probably only the beginning. God help israel and happy shavuot.
44. Of course, Israel has no right to defend the Syrian Golan
Fedup   (06.06.11)
45. waiting for the check....
Paul b ,   NYC   (06.06.11)
and we will be happy to stop commenting on israel's behavior once you send us back all the weapons and money the usg has provided
46. Martyrs? Shadids.
Someone should assa ,   Chicago, USA   (06.06.11)
Here today and gone tomorrow. They were warned in more ways than one. And now they lay in cold graves. Martyrs? Shahids? None of the above. Yet these dead will be revered. Where is the reverence for the thousands of Syrians who marched for peace and freedom and were shot dead? Where is the reverence for those who will protest tomorrow against the dictatorial government of Bashir Assad and who will be shot dead? Someone should assassinate this guy before he wipes out all of the peace loving Syrians in his country. The twenty lunatics who were killed today as a result of their decision to cross Israel's border unfortunately made a wrong choice.
47. Mrs. Clinton: I am troubled about the violence YOU showed
Rivkah   (06.06.11)
to innocent women and children and males at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, using gases to kill those people that are banned by Geneva Convention. YOU were and are higher in the Illuminati than your husband and YOU called Janet Reno (Attorney General) and YOU ordered the deaths of those people instead of arresting the leader who was the one the government should have prosecuted for polygamy. But instead YOU wanted all those people terrorized and killed so YOU could show Bosnia how tough the American President at the time's resolve was in using force. YOU are Sick, Sick, Sick and should resign and repent the rest of your life for your murders. That does not include all the 60+ murders of anyone who was about to expose your husband's corruption in office. OR, the 3,000 who were killed at the WTC towers on 9/11/01 because an indictment of YOUR husband was about to be flown to Washington, D.C. to prosecute him. How convenient that the evidence perished with the collapsing buildings along with the people who were going to present the evidence that afternoon in Washington, D.C. You have a one way ticket to hell for eternity unless you repent and repent and repent. YHWH can forgive murder but you have to repent.
48. America or hypocrisy at his best.
Phil   (06.06.11)
US deeply troubled???, but not troubled enough for having their drones plastering men, women, children in afghanistan, libya. Iraq.What a bunch of hypocrites this State dept. The whole world knows that this Syrian butcher is paying US cash to " volunter patriots " but the US doesn't have the balls to tell Assad to remove the thugs from the border; so calling both sides to show to calm down and show restraint placates the arabs. Obama, before you tell Israel how to safeguard it's borders, why don't you show us how you do it on your US / Mexican minefield .It gets ugly and uglier America. Today, Israel is mush, and so are their worthless, heavily mined borders.
49. WHAT DID AMERICA DO ABOUT THIS?

50. US always being "deeply troubled" is deeply troubling.
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (06.06.11)
51. deeply troubled
Joe Casey ,   Boston USA   (06.06.11)
We all just know that the 20 dead include 0 Israelis. Once again, the IDF has shot and killed dozens of unarmed protestors of a decades long illegal occupation and the Zionist amen corner uses racist terms and arguments to blame the victims. The sooner we rid ourselves of zionism, the better
52. Don't Worry American Jews.......
Dan ,   USA   (06.06.11)
The next time Clinton needs money to run for an office she will love you once again. And once again you will give her money and votes.
53. Thank You, Lawrence, Safed.
Kayla ,   Florida   (06.06.11)
You have it absolutely right. And, if I could, I would be in Israel with my son to further show my support. I am totally ashamed and "deeply troubled" by the direction the US has taken and it taking now.
54. Dear Mrs. Clinton
Amir ,   Toronto   (06.06.11)
It is about time you looked in your own domestic affairs in your family and your country before looking into Israel's domestic affairs. Keep your nose out of matters that do not belong to you!! For years, you, your husband, Jimmy Carter and now Barak Hussein Osama have supported terrorists like Arafat, murderous dictators like Assad, Saddam Hussein, Mubarak, Gaddafi, King Fahd and the list goes on. For a change, just shut up!
55. #7 Bunnie Meyer the new state department spokes woman
Avi ,   Israel   (06.06.11)
The day that happens the state department is in serious trouble. Funny you cant even commit to Israel by making aliah.
56. and how would america protect its borders
johanna from tsfat ,   tsfat   (06.06.11)
if the canadians and the mexicans decided to cross it on mass to protest on july 4th or some other american victory day? or should we just roll over and let them all cross the border whenever they like? we have no peace treaty with syria... so obama and clinton should tell assad to a)get his people away from the border and b)stop shooting at his own people, he has killed a lot more of them than we did yesterday.. i wouldn't believe the syrian figures in anycase... you can't ask for restraint from both parties in this situation.. israel is defending her borders.. if we don't do this the next thing might be that the syrian army decides to cross it.. or perhaps the infiltrators are suicide bombers.. how do we know/
57. arming Hezbullah doesn't justify snipping Syrians
observer ,   Egypt   (06.06.11)
in customary international law the provision of arms to the opposition in another State does not constitute an armed attack on that State.
58. Show Restraint???
Trevor ,   Modiin Israel   (06.06.11)
yes, lets show restraint while we have madmen running towards our homes with murder in their eyes shouting death to Jews!
59. Let's fire...
Annette ,   USA/IL   (06.06.11)
water canons full of dollar bills over the heads of the Assad mercenaries sitting in their camps on the border and watch them chase the money, proving what the real goal is of the so-called protests. And watch the Syrian troops and the UN down the hill chase after the mercenaries.
60. US deeply troubled? Why are they not
Vardina   (06.06.11)
troubled by Assad mass murder of his own people? We don't need moral educational lessons from Obama or Hilary. First they should look at themselves in the mirror and see the faces of the those really responsible for the chaos that is presently taking place in the Middle East. You think that you can scold us as if we were naughty teenagers? We are fighting for our lives. We can rely on you only to a limited extent remembering how "helpfu": you were during WWII in not allowing Jewish refugees into your country, refusing to bomb death camps and railroads leading to them. It took the murder of 6 million innocent lives of our people to make you even notice us. You consider yourself entitled to give us moral lessons?????
