don't let dangerous animals and gentiles to Israel !
2. Why Doesn't It Say Where They Came From?
EGGM ,   Petah Tikva, Israel   (11.05.12)
Too bad Ynet can't report what country the ants came from.

Fire ants are already here and causing problems.

Are alive and well in the Jordan Valley thanks to the failure and incompotence of the ministry of agriculture to stop a delivery of infected wood logs to a now defunct plywood factory in the area.

Jewish fire ants? Really? No, wait, that'd be AWESOME!!! Imagine what the IDF it could do if it had an army of fearless little warriors dedicated to Torah, the State of Israel, and swarming the enemy and stinging them alive.
9. No laughing matter.....
Koose E Mack ,   NY NY   (11.07.12)
Ask anyone from down South, in the US if Fire Ants are funny! The sting from Fire Ants is very painful and can produce allergic reactions which are potentially fatal. This is an aggressive species which causes millions of dollars of losses to farmers in the US. As for the incompetence of Hagannat Hatzomeach....no argument!
