Obama needs to be re-elected...so forget about Israel's security....forget about missiles....forget about anything that could hurt his chances. The way Obama has been taking out his FRIENDS in the region......should make anyone wonder if the United States is here to help...or invade.

Like dancing with the stars, nothing more than useless hype. Whom re we kidding? does the US need Israel to protect its Arabian Oil interests? NO! The exercise was offered as a sop to divert and delay Israel's self defense preparedness, at that it has been a resounding success. Same goes for the useless Patriot and Iron Dome systems. all they have done is divert Israel from eradicating Hamas and Hezbollah threats, and resort to ineffective very expensive retaliation with costly missiles, airplane or both. There is only one way to handle this, thats to reoccupy and to depopulate Gaza, So Lebanon. and the WB. then it will be much easier to defend the borders and to implement MAD in a trully effective manner.

we have no allies. I'll not tell you that our only ally is god, it's too childish, but in some sense it's true. Our ally is our faith in ourselves, our faith in that what we defend worth it. It is what gave to our forefathers the strength to pass over centuries. We never had allies but us.

It's the same WMD song and dance as in Iraq and we know that was a ruse. For an objective look at the Iran Crisis :http://www.funk66.com/2012/01/look-at-iran-drama.html

Who is the global power? Obama's lost my vote on this.

Everyone should read debka.com today for the truth behind this U. S. request for delay.

You need to make alliances to deter your enemies. That way you can avoid war.

The exercise was probably never meant to happen - it was just an excuse to get 9000 US troops on Israeli soil. Now Israel is in a pickle - how can we act independently while the watchdogs are breathing down our throats? We'll be held on a short leash at least until after the US elections.

By all means we need Arab oil so postpone it pack it up for six 6 months may be a year after all both the American and so Israeli militarys are already so over trained any way it is ridiculous RIGHT but by all means tell Iran see we can stall as well as you can any way no big deal I still need a miracle the sooner the better but then police states like America Israel run by the police for the police never suffer they get the best food housing money so on are absolute cowards who pick up on only sick weak wounded RIGHT and so January 2012 winter in my own local area but the police are all taken care of provided for all dirty yellow police are always provided for first last always the only thing the wealthy rich ever do politicians RIGHT take care of the police fire departments RIGHT the YNET police are all taken care of so on all you dirty yellow police you never need do your own share but such is life I may just hope for a miracle before it is too late for me at 67 I suffer all the conditions of old age police never do as they are so taken care of RIGHT and so Egypt Syria police again attacking sick weak wounded the police never do their own half share never RIGHT ??? Thank You... M. S.

as soon as I read the news! I couldn't believe it. Obama just doesn't seem to get it. Does he think the mullahs are going to wait until the missile test is done? Unbelievable

it would not surprise me if Obama ordered Israeli warplanes shot down followed by the excuse that it was for the safety and stabilization of the region. Three aircraft carriers and three strike forces are in the Persian Gulf. We are told they are to prevent the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz. We are also told they are there to protect the U.S. interests in the area. But are those the only two reasons? Obama only does things that benefit Obama's agenda. Keeping in mind that Israel is the fly in Obama's ointment, I would not put anything past him, especially now.

this fight is not ours. Let both both countries bloody themselves and destroy themselves even. The world would probably a more peaceful place without them.

there. Obama could be the Anti-Christ who turns on Israel after a lot of equipment and personnel are there. The little horn of Daniel comes out of one of the four parts or nations that the notable horn breaks into. The final and complete fulfillment was not Alexander the Great of the notable horn because he did not have airplanes (touches not the ground) and Greece was not a nation from the ends of the Earth (from Jerusalem). That could be happening now. The Anti-Christ speaks great words against HaShem. Obama said America is no longer a Christian nation. Sounds like words against HaShem to me. The ELS Scripture code matrix on Obama has him at that surface text verse in Daniel, the one who speaks great things against the Most High God. If he is the Muslim Mahdi (Anti-Christ) he will go into the rebuilt Jewish Temple (it is rebuilt offsite) and say he is God when he is not.

You can always put the uniforms on and show us what you're made of ,...

Maybe instead of invisible airplanes that don't fly, Congress will include the billions needed for this training Ex in the new budget. They are shorting training and spare parts at present. And Republicans are proposing privatizing nuclear weapons production and ownership to save money. Crazy world. It's just a postponement. October would be a good time. Great time for press Photo Ops, too.

Sometimes, you actually make quite a bit of sense. Please explain the "rebuilt offsite" bit.

there to deter Israel from taking action. How do you figure that and exactly how do you figure they would go about doing it?

Dear Devorah - I Quote - it would not surprise me if Obama ordered Israeli warplanes shot down followed by the excuse that it was for the safety and stabilization of the region. - He would not dare such an Foolish and Idiotic move. Israel could wipe out all US Forces in the region if She wount to. And Israels intressts and Saudiarabias, are in harmony for an strike against Iran. Mau HASHEM bless Thee Devorah. Arn.Sweden.

Some of you are now talking about possible hostile action between the US and Israel. Do you guys realise just how ridiculous even the mere thought of that is? The US attacking Israel. Say it to yourself and not feel the urge to laugh at something so strange. By the way, for you guys saying Obama might do this and that to harm Israel militarily; if he actually did attack Israeli military forces, he would be impeached by the heavily pro-Israel US Congress. He would probably be the first to have it done successfully too (provided he didn't resign first).

PM Netanyahu, DM Barak, and DPM Yaalon, are not willing to put all their trust for defending Israel in American hands or relinquish unilateral military options against Iran. That's the way I see it.

(who I will make reference to a great deal for at least a few weeks, by the way), yes. However, I don't think he can be blamed for S&P. The way I understand it, if the US needs to repay a loan they can get the money one way or another. It's highly unlikely that they can actually default on a loan. That is my understanding anyway, but I'm not an economist (Yahweh be praised I never picked that as a career path).

Israel didn't start this whole thing to begin with Mr. Jeffery. Iran did. It's Ahmadenijad who stands in front of UN counsels and ravels on about destroying Israel and the US. Are Israelis at fault for wanting to defend their right to exist? Israel has always been our number one ally in a region that has never been too friendly with us, be it because of horrible foreign policies by administrations in the past or not. Israel has bee persecuted for thousands of years. Obama on the other hand decides he'd rather sever ties with an ally and break bread with an enemy who wants to annihilate us. While he's cutting the budget on our military, he's raising the debt ceiling another 1.2 trillion dollars as a further attempt to make America more fragile. The left wing doesn't seem to want anything short of control over every aspect of our life in this country. This is all an attempt to purposely collapse the American Capitalist system and start anew with what Obama would most likely call State Nationalism. Negotiations with Iran clearly show his disregard for our nation. At a time when our military should have everything it needs and to be as strong as it possibly can, he cuts the military budget. OH NO!! He wont cut his extremely expensive and incredibly unconstitutional health care bill, nor will he stop spending money on other gigantic government programs. Make us weaker, but him stronger. Liberals are unaccountable idiots who see nothing else but what they can loot off of others. We should destroy the left wing before every American liberty is stripped from us and we become slaves to the establishment!!

last time i checked our Congress were a bunch of babbling idiots. Our Senate is primarily left wing.. Obama supporters.. whereas our House of Representatives are more right wing.. with no conservative bone in their body.. let the right amount of money be brought up and they'll do whatever they're asked.. hence why the debt ceiling is being raised..... AGAIN!!! smh

Should not underestimate the Muslim in Chief. All he has to do is to give sensitive intelligence (e.g. from the X-band radar in the Negev desert) to the Mullahs. Their new S-300 and/or S-400 will do the rest.

a traitor to the US and Israel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IMPEACH HIM NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for tougher sanctions against Iran? It's not inconceivable that if a US President, any US President, did something so outrageous he would not be impeached. There's more Israel supporters than detractors and such an impeachment hearing would be a big deal. How each senator voted would be a permanent mark on their record. Of course, this is all in the realm of fantasy.

naïve man who thinks that he can solve all of the world's problems by being friendly with everyone. He still has not realised that there are some countries who do not any desire to be our friend.
