1. Interesting
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.16.12)
I am beginning to wonder if all the cancellations of IDF festivities and exercises are not due to budget cuts, but rather to a far more important reason. An attack upon Iran on Yom ha'Shoa would send a very strong message to the world.
2. depends
israel israeli ,   tel aviv   (04.16.12)
It depends what Gantz means by "enemies" If Gants mean "enemies" like Jews who try to live in their homes, peaceful protestors from the Right, Haredim and or soldiers and police who try to protect Jews, then Gantz, Netanyahu and Barak know how to handle them with an iron fist and no mercy. If you mean Danish rioters, Leftists, Islamists who launch rockets at Jewish children or Arabs who murder Jewish children (slitting throat or smashing their head) then Israel is helpless.
3. The darkest period in the history of....
Robert ,   Australia   (04.16.12)
....mankind is a tossup between the holocaust and the slaughtered Vietnamese.
4. Israel can handle all enemies after we get permission
A Very Heavy Stone ,   Florida   (04.16.12)
We have to wait on our god of no peace America Babylon for a green light. Right now we are under a red light and do not have permission and this is why we could not defeat Hezbollah in 2006 and Hamas in 2009. President Bush had a red light for us. Please do not repeat this as we are living in a fantasy world where the Palestinians 'want peace' and we are required to surrender to them by our Fourth Reich Quartet masters.
5. don't forget what makes the IDF strong
Tom ,   USA   (04.16.12)
I love and stand with Israel, but the comments of Mr. Gantz are troubling. It is the Gd of Jacob who has protected His people Israel since the time of Abrahm. To claim millitary might as ones refuge is to deny the true power that gave Joshua, Gideon, David, and Hezekiah unbelievable victory. This is the same mistake we are making in America: to sound strong to the world, we pronounce our trust in something other than the true source of our blessing and strength. Repent with me of this greivious mistake. The prophet Joel said: this is why the Lord says turn to me know while there is still time. Don't tear your clothes, but tear your heart instead. May the Gd of Jacob bless those who live in His chosen land.
6. To: No. 3
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.16.12)
Really? So tens of millions of murdered Australian Aborigines matter not at all?
7. To: No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.16.12)
Oh, I beg to differ. Israel did not wait for a "green light" from the United States before rescuing the hostages at Entebbe (quite a few of whom held U.S. passports). Israel did not wait for a "green light" from the United States before destroying the Osirac reactor in Baghdad. We take existential threats quite seriously, and we are not in the habit of waiting for a "green light" from the United States, particularly from the Moslem-in-Chief currently residing in the White House.
8. And what has the IDF done to avenge..
Zionist forever ,   Toronto   (04.16.12)
Or defend, or even respond to the cases of violence towards Jews around the world? Talk is cheap. Let's walk the talk now.

Can you please tell me your source for your ridiculous figure of "tens of millions of aborigines'?At any one time, there has never been more than one million aborigines inhabiting Australia. Maybe you are getting confused with your North American Indians?
10. Nr 9.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (04.16.12)
The Serbians accused the Nazi - Croatia of Genocide on 3/4 of an Million Murdered Serbs during the Second World War. The Croatian Defense regarding the Question was their answer - It was only 70.000 thousend. Arn.Sweden.

A Very Heavy Stone ,   Florida   (04.16.12)
The old Israel of Entebbe has been successfully neutered as there are only spineless, secular lap dogs who are permitted by their masters to rule Israel to ruin. Israel's capitulation expert,Ehud 'retreat and appease Barak as defense Minister is the best example of the failure of secular Jewish rule. Ezekiel 37 is a good read and I am looking for the stony heart to be replaced by the heart of flesh.
12. NR. 11.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (04.16.12)
I Quote - Ezekiel 37 is a good read and I am looking for the stony heart to be replaced by the heart of flesh. A Very Heavy Stone , Florida (04.16.12) Comment - It Will not happen untill the coming of Elijah !!!. Malachi 4. 5"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse." Arn.Sweden.

Love the blog. Keep up the good work !!
14. To: No. 9
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.16.12)
Oh, you've been swallowing too much of your own poison. Have you any idea what the British criminals on those transports did to the native Australians? Perhaps you should read genuine histories, and not the pablum that your government has fed you to make you feel good about yourselves. Might make you somewhat less bewildered.
15. Now: FOOT IN THE DOOR of our HOME! Needed: SECURE BIG ISRAEL
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (04.16.12)
16. "Israel can handle all enemies", really?
m   (04.16.12)
Not if their hands are tied in the back unable to defend themselves, look at the latest attack when the colonel had his hand broken by an intruder, an enemy of Israel, and he is under fire. You are and have emasculating our army for years. They are not alowed to defend themselves even when attacked (only from Jews)
17. TO GENERAL GANTZ
DA URBAN POET ,   SAFED OPERA HOUSE   (04.16.12)
Sir ,just continue harrassing your fine soldiers ,for exampole colonel Eisner and tying their hands. You are ,sadly ,foolish .
18. Winning wars NOT enough. TERRITORIAL GAIN for BALANCE&PEACE!
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (04.16.12)
19. Did I not hear this from
michael Pielet ,   israel   (04.16.12)
Moshe Dayan, summer of 1973!

Bewildered Aussie   (04.17.12)
I have read much about the history of my country, Sarah B, and I still find your exaggerations rather amusing if not childish. Anything else you are exaggerating?
21. # 20... She does it with everyone...
Edithann ,   USA   (04.17.12)
She insists our Civil War was similar also.... A little off the wall, but she's bought Ynet which gives her priority print space to propagandize the same old BS...and make it sound true... TATA
