No one ever won a war or a sports game playing defense. The Muslim terrorists are and have been surrounding Israel with rockets as they have perfected their techniques. Sooner or later provoked or not they will attack from several sides. If war breaks out with Iran Israel will have to strike Gaza, Lebanon & Sinai hard ignoring left wing liberal bleeding heart cries for proportional response.

It started with the surrender of Israeli territory under the so-called "peace treaty" imposed on Israel by Carter that encouraged hard-line Arabs and made peace impossible. It went on with Israel-hater Mubarak who spent years of his failed rule conditioning Egyptians to hate Israel and taking American money to prepare for war against the Jews. But we cannot forget the Israelis who imported Arafat to Gaza, turning it into a hotbed of terror, or the collection of corrupt and foolish Israelis (Netanyahu amongst them) who ethnically cleansed Gush Katif, gave Hamas power and destabilized Sinai and Egypt. And of course, special thanks to Obama for his part in encouraging the Islamists.

Bibi has just gone begging for another $700 million for more Iron Dome batteries rather than addressing the problem and that is the rocket attacks themselves. Time to stop worshiping Iron Dome and saying look it stopped another one hooray isn't this a great system and instead go on the offensive. What we need is Cast Lead 2 and this time without letting Livni or any other politician overrule the IDF to suit their political needs the way Olmert unilaterally ended Cast Lwead early because Livni wanted to get back to her election campaign. What the hell has happened to the Israel of old that didn't take any nonsense from its enemies and they knew if they hit israel then Israel will hit them back and 100 times harder? Today they watch us praise technology and leave them alone and they laugh rather than get scared, if we want to stop the terror we need to find that fighting spirit again and use it.

Da fence is not defence .....altho Bibi would love to think so for his political survival. Egyptian army syas "not from Sinai peninsula" so the rockets must then have been launched at sea ....Hamas is sooooooo strong!! Yearn for Israel of old - one good hiding and the child will learn to behave properly.......or will it?

Because the next war is Psalm 83. It will happen so fast and hard that the surrounding nations of Israel will go up in a puff of smoke.

Let's give Eilat to the Egyptians since the Sinai clearly wasn't enough land for peace. I'm sure Gideon Levy would agree.

I agree and I can't forget obama's plea for Israel to end 'cast lead' prematurely on his inauguration day. Only by brute force of awesome proportions will the hit and run pal lunatics be stopped. Gaza will erupt into war, Iran will be defeated and, and life goes on. The threats of "wipe Israel off the map" will come back to ravage Iran and leave her in a dust heap. Waiting is difficult however, it would appear that Israel isn't including the obama adm. in either, 1- joint military gulf exercises 2-prior notification of an attack on Iran. Israel knows what most others know, obama can't be trusted and his preference for 'all things muslim', as well as the economy, jobs, housing, his 'health care plan', ( oy!) are murder.

... so maybe you should have held on to the sinai since you won it in war fair and square. it's a dog eat dog world in the middle east.

This guy, Bibi, turned into a fine comedian.

Probably not eh? Yeah between Bibi and Barak, talking big game against Iran, but won't even adeqeuately resopnd to threat on the borders.

Israel under the leadership of this criminally insane leftist self hating cowardly and gutless government,has become the laughing stock of the whole world,and became the punching bag of the middle east,every two bit rag tag terrorist organization that feels like shooting rockets into Israel population centers,can do it ,because they know that this leftist cowardly criminal government will not lift a finger to defend it's country and it's citizens

Is it possible that it came from Jordan?

I am so glad that God told me years ago to turn away from those that would be mine enemies. Today we think about that great Hebrew leader Moses and Aaron and they did in assisting God with bringing the children of Israel out of Egypt. But before then, "as Jannes and Jambris withstood Moses, so do these men resist the truth. Men of corrupt minds, reprobate concern the truth, from such turn away..." The fence/wall/separation barrier should remain as long as there are rocket attacks and other acts of terrorism against Israel.

So take back the Sinai again already,for the 3,4th,or 5th time I have lost count...

Sinai peninsula under Muslim control is turning into a hotbed of terrorist activity against Israel? Shocker. Good thing we gave it back, that's worked out really well for us.
