1. May Assad and his enemies live long enough
(02.04.12)
TO DESTROY EACH OTHER!
2. Syria
larry ,   ISRAEL   (02.04.12)
No one really cares .do they"? 250 arabs in Syria murdered . but if one Palestinian is shot by an Israeli soldier the whole world goes crazy "? why, maybe a hate for the jews "?
3. Arab spring...yeah right ....
Al   (02.04.12)
"When you positively absolutely got to kill evey MF in the room accept no subsitutes".....Samuel L Jackson in Jackie Brown. The above line defines the Arab world.
4. HAS ASSAD ORDERED HIS NEW
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (02.04.12)
villa in Tehran yet?
5. It is All Israel's Fault!!!!
Ahmad Cohen ,   Ibn Mousa HaLevy   (02.04.12)
If not Israel, Assad would not be murdering his own people. If now Israel, the rebels would not be trying to bring down Assad's regime. If not Israel, it would never make it to the UN Security Council Agenda since that is ONLY driven by Israel Bashing. There is absolutely no other subject that merits their time other than those that bash Israel and attempt to destroy the state.
6. WHERE ARE ERDOGAN AND THE BRAVE
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (02.04.12)
flotilla fighters? Where is Zaobi? Doesn't she want to go to Syria to save her beloved brothers? How about Abu Mazen or Hamas? Don't they care for Syrians?
7. Imagine the hysteria if Israel killed 200 Arabs.
Dan Kelso   (02.04.12)
Imagine the hysteria if 200 Palestinians had been killed in one day 5000 in the last few months? There would be a world wide hysteria. Millions would march on the streets in protest. But in Syria the perpetrators are Arabs, so nobody cares. Says it all about those who get outraged when it suits their agenda.Their silence is deafening
8. You know whats funny
Jon Rosenthal   (02.04.12)
Somehow I suspect that if Israel went to the aid of the Syrians and killed Assad, that the entire Arab world (including the people of Homs) would condemn Israel
9. Very much agreed, but...
Canadian Dude ,   Canada   (02.04.12)
At the end of the day, Assad's regime is done for. He's a goner, and once he's out there will be severe punishments for Hezbollah and Iran too. When Israel fights a war, on the other hand, there's a lot of ignorant screaming and bleating from leftist idealists, but no real consequences for Israel's government other than those from the Israelis themselves as punishment for incompetent mismanagement.
10. Syria
Allen ,   USA   (02.04.12)
I am a Christian Arab and I am not thrilled with the barbarian Bashar but on the other hand he will most likely be replaced with yet another Islamic government which is what is happening in Egypt where the Muslim Brotherhood has taken over. I am not so sure that Israelis should be rooting for Assad's demise. As a Christian Arab I would prefer to be in Israel rather than any Arab country right now. There I said it.

Unfortunately if Israel were to invent a cure for cancer and give it to the world for free, much of the world would condemn them anyway. The Jews really are God's chosen people and we are in a war between good and evil. Evil isn't going to win but it is going to stir up a lot of trouble.
12. I am in pain for the syrian people
Yossef   (02.04.12)
13. Only last year Sec Clinton called Assad a moderate!
David ,   Hartford USA   (02.04.12)
Does this mean he wasn't really a moderate last year? That maybe he's always been a murdering bastard, just like his murdering bastard father? Wow! How easy it is to fool the 'brilliant' American foreign service people! And if they weren't fooled (because nobody can be that blind), then it means that the USA, for its own disgusting reasons, was complicit in allowing Assad to get away with murdering his own people. This is what happens when Obama kisses up to the Arab leaders - they literally get away with murder. And now the Arab Spring has been hijacked by Islamo-nutjobs that will push the entire region back 5 centuries. Dear president Obama, make a command decision: send in Force 6 and kill Assad, before he slaughters a hundred thousand instead of 'just' the 5,000 people that are already needlessly dead because of your indecision. Why is there NO LEADERSHIP IN WASHINGTON??
14. what is amazing
Real vision ,   united States   (02.04.12)
is the quiet from the world and from lots of the arab/muslim countries. Everyone hates Assad and the murderous campaign he is conducting but the unknown behind the door if he is removed(hopefully by a bullet in the head) makes everyone scared. Certainly Hezbolla and Iran are no friends of the syrian people
