A new absurd tactic.Israel is very talented in finding a pretex to launc war.World has changed Israel shouldn't bury it's head in the sand

ISRAEL you trusted in lies. Following the phony peace U.S Road Map has always led to hell. You should have followed Exodus 23:27-33 'for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you will drive them out before you. 32 You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods. 33 They shall not live in your land, because they will make you sin against Me'

dont generate the fear that itself will precipitate a war.

is the thought of Ehud Barak giving the orders to defend Israel. Now is the time to get a REAL minister of defense before its too late. DUMP BARAK!

One does not need to be a prophet or a general to realize it is going to get much worse before it gets better. Israel's enemies are gathering to destroy her, so Israel must attack fast and hard at the right moment.

PALs have been the epicenter of World Radical Islam while the Islamic World really doesn't give a damn about the PALs. They are nothing but an excuse to justify terror. Arab nations keep PALs in refugee camps and will not allow them to integrate in their societies since PALs have repeatedly proved themselves to be nucances and menaces. They have even been kicked out of Jordan and Lebanon. The terrorists of Gaza somehow continue to delude themselves that they can somehow win. The world sees them for what they are and have branded them terrorists. They are outlawed by many nations. Should they ever cross the line of seriously jeopardizing Israel and its citizens, there win be no choice but to respond in kind and minimize Israeli losses. In no circumstances will the terrorists ever win. It is only a question of how badly they will lose and possibly existentially to the point that there will be no possibility of ever recovering.

Nobody has mor than the zionists, thanks to the us

The best defense is a good offense...The results of the 1967 War were much preferable to the Yom Kippur War or Lebanon! We must do what is right for Israel and disregard world opinion. Every other country in the world operates on this crede; why should we care if the world has a double standard?

Seriously? Do you even know where you are most of the time? Are you sure that you're lucid? Have you been watching what is going on in the world? You think those "revolutionaries" are freedom lovers? You are a fool. Israel is not "finding a pretext", this general is commenting on what is turning out to be an inevitable war.

After you endure nuclear attacks form the Islamic Nuclear threats to civilization, you will respond. Then Obama will scold you and urge you to negotiate with these monsters. Oh, and as part of your "negotiations", he will want you to surrender your own weapons to achieve parity. My heart breaks for you. Remember, he does not care about the threats to us either. If he is not a Muslim, he sure gives a good impression of being one. Hold fast. Lots of us pray for you daily. .

Moshe Yaalon for Defense Minister!!!

the government is spending billions on thier bomb shelter under the kenesset building in jerusalem..they are also busy buying up property outside of the country so they can flee while we bear the brunt of assault...who is we?....the people who were in kikar hamedina...

Israel will finally be able to solve the "Palestinian problem".

It is Irans Religious Outlook which are the Driving Force of everything in this case. Iran intends to come for Israel to establish the Reighn of the Shia-Islamic Al-Mahdi in Jerusalem. Further - Weapons of mass destruction? Referring to what he characterized as the possibility of a "radical Islamic winter," Major-General Eisenberg said: "This raises the likelihood of an all-out, total war, with the possibility of weapons of mass destruction being used." Comment - This is not an Possibility but an Certainty - thus - 30"And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth-- blood and fire and pillars of smoke. 31The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. From - http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Joel+2&version=KJ21 Comment - Before the Great and Terrible day of HASHEM/the 3rd World War, as here in Joel recorded. l the Sunwill become Dark and the Moon red as Blood, by the Dust thrown up in the Atmosphere by use of Nuces. It is the Strikes against Irans undergrounf Nuclear facilities by Nuces which accomplish this. May HASHEM see to it that, it is Israel and not her foes who strikes First Arn.Sweden.

Certainly, the many prophecies that point toward the coming Greatest of Wars could have been avoided, but HaShem demanded Tshuvah from all the Jewish people -- mainly those of us in Israel -- but it has not been so. We, like alway,s rebel against His Views; we think that we know better, that "times have changed" and that maybe He doesn't even exists after all. And so we go about our lives haughty and dumb, constantly trying to be like all the other nations (which is precisely the antithesis of 'kadosh'), trying to appease endemic lethal enemies (open and subtle) who will never -- NEVER! -- quit on their genetically-induced genocidal intention toward us. We ignore the calls of HaShem to turn to Him with all our hearts, to no much response. Meanwhile, we raise our eyes to America, as if it was our saving G-d, ignoring the fact that her "frienship" was never so friendl --, and now under Obama the Muslim even less. By doing all this we have just weakened our positions more and more to a level that now we are on the very verge of having to fight for our very survival against the whole world, because we did not learn that, in the mentality of Goyim, nobody respects "cowardly appeasers." Yes, our eyes are still closed to our centuries-old errors, and so we have not merited the reversal of the prophecies that are starting to come true. May HaShem have some more patience with us on account of our forefathers.

and all the anti-semitic igoramuses at the US State Dept who think they are helping the poor Arabs but because they don't understand the Middle East what they will actually do is set the whole area on fire. Literally.

It's all about the living conditions. Arabs want the good life but are unwilling to educate themselves or work towards these goals.They are constantly mislead by dictators and a false religion.

Mr. Barak has done great things for Israel for many years. He is a great man... He will always have my respect.

STAND UP ISRAEL AND YOUR GID STANDS WITH YOU HE IS THE ONLY ONE GOD THE GOD OF ABRAHAM ISAAC AND JACOB KNOWN AS YESHUA STAND UP USE WHAT YOU HAVE LET THE WARRIOR SPIRIT OF KING DAVID BE UPON YOU HE IS YOUR ONLY HELP DO NOT PUT YOUR TRUST IN OTHER NATIONS LIKE THE US OR UN GOD IS YOUR ONLY NEEDED HELP. IF IT COMES TO USING WMDS STRIKE FIRST AND GOD BE WITH YOU

the IDF budgetwill remain intact. As to the nebulous double roof issue... what's up with that? You have relatives or a personal interest in the construction/reinforced-concrete trade?

Duh this was foretold in the Bible the nations turn from Israel in the first stage, which is happening now ! Then the Battle of Armageddon begins with those that side with Gd and Israel, and those against Gd aligned with Satan!

Palestinians fire rockets at Israeli civilians - a war crime. Islamic terrorists illegally cross the border and kill Israeli civilians - another war crime. The leader of Iran calls for Israel's destruction and pushes development of nuclear weapons - violations of the UN charter. These war mongering Islamofascists repeatedly call for holy war to kill all Israelis and wipe us off the map, and you're saying we're looking for a "pretext". It's fools like you in every generation who ignore the drums of war by the enemies, and pretend that the good guys are to blame.

Apparently you live in a cave or are just ignoraant of history. Isreal has defeated the combined Arab nations in no less than 4 major wars. Your comment is so typical of your people- bellicose rhetoric that is never backed up by facts. My money is on Isreal. They can trounce the Arabs anytime. They have proven it time after time.

... for publishing my comment again. :)

Time for the US to distant itself from Israel, they want it, let them have it.
