1. They work on Sat.nights? Factory=empty building...

2. Good job IAF! But... Army?

Nicely done. Sadly I will bet the next factory is going to be under a hospital or school as per Gazan law. I find it kind of annoying though that YNet's reporting style mentions the Army more prominently than the Air Force. People in the IAF work very hard even when they are just doing administrative work; they deserve just as much as their IDF counterparts (not that people don't work hard in the IDF).

Two points: 1. They are not Jewish. Yes, they work on Saturday nights. Terrorism is pretty much 24/7, with maybe a break on Friday so these so-called "devout" Islamists can worship at their insane brand of a so-called "religion." 2. Think of it this way -- no place to go to work on Sunday.

Oh my, you must be very young indeed. Military service is not a popularity contest. Does it matter who gets the job done, as long as it gets done? Also, just so you know, Israel takes great pains to shield the identities of the IAF pilots. The less said; the better.

22 years old actually. My reaction stems from the fact that my girlfriend is in the IAF and while she mostly does administrative work, it's a huge pain for her that leaves her exhausted. I hope you understand where I am coming from on this (feel people like her should get recognition for helping to keep things running).
7. THE GAZA-STRIP AND THE ''ISRAELI'' ''LEADERS-SHIP''
SJOERD RUURD VDV ,   MULTIVERSE   (12.11.11)
REGARDLESS EVERY/MY OPINION IT ALSO COULD BE SAID THAT THE PALESTINIAN ACTION WAS/IS A RETALIATION FOR AN ''ISRAELI'' ONE. AS LONG AS THAT CRAZY/CRIMINAL BLOCKADE AND THE SABOTAGING BY THE WESTERN WORLD/THE UN-SECURITY COUNCIL FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A STATE FOR THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE LASTS THAT UNFORTUNATELY COULD BE EXPECTED SINCE 1948. THE PARTIES INVOLVED AND THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION IN THAT CASE CERTAINLY GRADUALLY AT LAST SHOULD TAKE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY.
8. popularity contest??

Henry @2 and 6. Boo hoo for you. If you want recognition with glitz and spaklining lights, join the film/movie industry or better still... go into politics then you dont even have to be totally honest with yourself or your constituents but you still have to look at your sleepy face in the mirror in the morning before you put makeup on! Leave the military to do their work without you blowing their trumpet. Get a life!
9. I guess I have to take the crumbs, since obviously I can't
tom ,   tel aviv   (12.11.11)
have the cake! I could agree to your point Sarah, had we bombed these "factories" day& night, as soon as we've learned of their existence. But like this....? Only as a consolation prize for the Israeli "Right-wing Fanatics":-))?! No, I don't think so.... Why do we permit them to set up shop? The same goes for the famed "tunnels" to Egypt....

Moron!!..., I am sure if it was someone in your family involved you'll stop yawning People are dying here, this is not a board game.

Were it up to me, Tom, I'd raze Gaza to the ground, and send whomever is left to Egypt. I don't know why we are being so gentle with ruthless and violent terrorists. Perhaps Avigdor Lieberman as prime minister is the solution. If nothing else, we'd send a very strong message. I don't really care that he used to work at a nightclub. Some of the best American presidents were born in log cabins and never had formal education; some of the worst were born with a silver spoon in their mouths and were (are!) highly educated.
12. #8, wait what? I wasn't even talking about myself, lol.
