1. hahahaha, Barak is the comedian of the century...
(07.20.12)
2. Barak
zznhl   (07.21.12)
the guys a wally; SHOULD KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT.
3. I have an idea
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.21.12)
IDF should enter Syria and seize advanced weapons and use them on Iran - without wasting our missiles. That way we strip Syria of it's chemical weapons, save our own weapons, and strike Iran. I'd say that's killing three birds with one stone.
4. There's an easier way
Chatich   (07.21.12)
To keep Syria from passing the weapons to hizballa; destroy the weapons, destroy hizballa. Have lunch. Shabbat shalom.
5. Thanks for letting us know the plan!
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (07.21.12)
This guy is a complete joke. All cares for is his interest at the end. Why Bibi is keeping him is just not understandable. Since when you talk about your war plans before you go to war? He is all BS.
6. Keep no secrets
Joan ,   New Zealand   (07.21.12)
USA warned Iraq months before they finally attacked - Gave them heaps of time to transfer their WMD to a very willing Syria.
7. Iran boasts of attack
Amos   (07.21.12)
Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad gloated publicly on Thursday over the deaths of Israelis in a terror bombing in Bulgaria, and hinted that Iran was responsible for the attack. “They have indeed succeeded in inflicting blows upon us more than once, but have been rewarded with a far stronger response.” So what is Israel waiting for anymore ? So what further evidence is needed ??? Tell Obama, Ashton & P5.1 to jump in the nearest sewer. Bomb Iran now or be nuked.
8. Barak should
Frank T   (07.21.12)
Barak should put up or shut up ! Iran is laughing at the internal Israeli squabbles and proceeding full speed ahead with the bomb.
9. Barak top secret plan
(07.21.12)
Barak has fixed an consultation appointment with Dr. Bashar Assad over his short-sighted ophthalamological problems. While he is in the good Doctors office, Barak will attempt to seize the chemical bottles from the shelf, jump on his motorbike and flee over the border with them.
10. Chemical weapons in Syria, eh?
Phil Johnson ,   Buellton, USA   (07.21.12)
Has Syria always had these chemical weapons? Could he have gotten them from Iraq after all? Just curious, because so many people have said that Iraq had no WMD's....I wonder
11. Can someone please shut this fool Geez
Al   (07.21.12)
the lack of leadership in Israel is stunning.
12. Barak should do it!
Reuven   (07.21.12)
13. Does barak know the meaning of "military
jason white ,   afula, israel   (07.21.12)
secrets"? He is as bad as kam or venunu!
14. no refuge for refugees
outsider ,   australia   (07.21.12)
there seems to be more than a little irony that Isreal, a state created as a refuge for displaced persons, is happy to use it's armed forces to stop refugees seeking protection from oppression.
15. They would not be refugees, Golan is part of Syria
USA   (07.21.12)
16. actually why don't just simply publish your operational plan
Rafi ,   US   (07.21.12)
... just can't help yourself from talking too much, can you?
17. zznhl @2, do not be naive.
leo ,   usa   (07.21.12)
By the time first news reached papers last week every interested party already evaluated Israeli attempt to as highly probable. Surely, even you did not need for Barak to say this for you to know this.
18. Israeli Intelligence know exactly
SD Charger ,   San Diego   (07.21.12)
where every single WMD is located there. Syria would make a grave mistake by allowing a single one to fall into the wrong hands. They must have received a call from Pakistan on the consequences.
19. # 3 and 4
ilyse ,   USA   (07.21.12)
Love your comments..:>)
20. Syria
Marty ,   Los Angeles, Ca.   (07.21.12)
Israel needs to act now to destroy all non-conventional weapons not wait till they are in the process of being given over to the brotherhoods fighters... Israel knows exactly were they are & needs to go in & destroy them... The U.S. will be more then happy to assist in the destruction of those weapons & Russia can do nothing to stop Israel from doing so....
21. Barak
Birdi ,   Israel   (07.21.12)
Oh what an idiot-de-luxe he is. Why must he brag about this? Small man with a tiny brain.
22. # 1 Re Barak.
Eldar ,   Tel Arad, Israel   (07.21.12)
Lets compromise and agree to call him the tragi-comedy clown of the modern era.
23. There's nothing to "monitor". Assad will fall, Brotherhood
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.21.12)
will take over, a new Syrian govt will transfer these weapons sooner or later to the relevant savages. NOW is the time to act.
24. cant this so call defence minister shut is mouth
johnson ,   madrid   (07.21.12)
am sick tired of barak opening his mouth to say things like informing the enemies of israel, what israel intend to do this man is a clown.
25. Genius
Geoff ,   London (UK)   (07.21.12)
A real stroke of genius by Barak to broadcast his intentions.
26. Quite the gamble & leap of faith
Cameron ,   USA   (07.21.12)
Hazardous if you do. Hazardous if you don't. The ME at its dubious best.
27. #19 ilyse
Avi ,   Israel   (07.21.12)
You are as stupid as they are...No offense intended...
28. Weapons in Syria
Floriane ,   Israel   (07.21.12)
I agree with everyone. Israel is constantly revealing what her next strategic move without ever moving an inch while our ennemies advanced. The only positive note is for us citizens to start preparing our gas masks and emergency food and drink.
29. LOL..Small man BIG TALK.Couldn't even handle Hezbollah.
Rouz ,   Jordan   (07.21.12)
The problem with Israeli defence officials like Barak is that, they believe in their own propaganda..Barak predicted Assad will fall within TWO WEEKS!!! Now not only is he predicting Assad's fall "soon", he's even boasting of seizing the entire Syrian army's weapons. This must be a Hollywood script..lol
30. Loving the talkbacks on this thread
Ally McBeale   (07.21.12)
Just shows how out of touch with reality Israelis and Israel firsters are becoming
