1. Hezbollah's contribution
Get Real ,   UK   (06.14.13)
And who brought death and destruction to Lebanon and is now assisting the Syrian regime in slaughtering its citizens?
2. All killing aside ...may it continue forever ..eventually it
Al   (06.14.13)
will turn on Israel. Now that the USA is openly arming the rebels, don't be surprised that these weapons will be used almost exclusively against Israel. Israel is facing a very difficult situation. Israel is being forced to accept the dictate of Obama. Obama is showing very clearly he is no friend of Israel. Israel simply has no friends anywhere.
3. Pride , ego , or megolomania
Arnold ,   Montreal-Canada   (06.14.13)
Either one is going to be his downfall.

Somebody needs to stand up to Obama. I guess he doesn't want Mexican drug lords to have ALL the guns. Israel has many friends but unfortunately they are under the thumbs of people like Obama. Since it's beginning Israel has been in a difficult situation. However bad things may seem the God of Israel will pull you through. Israel will still be standing after many others have fallen and the way things are going the U.S. is likely to be one of those others. God wasn't kidding when he said he would bless those that bless Israel and curse those that curse Israel.
5. Nasrallah
Lebanese 2 ,   usa   (06.14.13)
Nasrallah forgot the PLO and his Iranian party gave the reason for Israel to invade Lebanon , and never give the Lebanese government a chance to work , WHY ? because his helping the bad Iranian to expand to Beirut .
6. Nasrallah proud of genocide in Syria
Benji ,   US   (06.14.13)
83,000+ dead Syrian men, women and children. He's fighting to weaken Syria so he can plant his Hezbollah/Iran flag and claim victory over Syria. A jihad power struggle. And at what point does Lebanon hold responsbility for this carnage? Hezbollah has membership and is sponsored by the Lebanese government.
7. Hizbollah - reverse takeover of Syria
Mark ,   London, UK   (06.14.13)
8. How did they keep such a mass defection secret from Assad's
Alan ,   SA   (06.15.13)
Mukhabarat Squads?? Did they say they were going on a Regimental Picnic or what?
9. Bottom line
USA   (06.15.13)
Secular Muslims societies or most non-Muslim societies are better places to live in as they realize, sooner or later.
10. Who?
Jerry ,   Sweden   (06.15.13)
Spel it out, don't need to ask i you know it.
11. CIA heard it on the phone from Obama to Kerry...
Miron ,   USA   (06.15.13)
12. 7 generals & 20 colonels.....does desertion get any better?
Otto ,   Holy Roman Empire   (06.15.13)
13. #4 You are scraping the bottom of the barrel for support.
Michael ,   California, USA   (06.15.13)
Can't you find something more pragmatic to say where Israel can find friends and support? Make the barrel you are scraping to "pull you through" to be meaningful to yourself, because for most of us your opinion is from a kindergarten, quite funny. Are there many kindergartens where you are on our long coast?
14. #4. The bitter truth for you
Tom ,   USA   (06.15.13)
Russians and E. Europeans always had "refuseniks" - people of courage and moral conviction - who stood up against despotism, regardless of the consequences. Americans are worshiping Obama, - and those who don't, them are trembling in fear of "offending" the "Kenyan Messiah". The unraveling spying scandal shows the absolute cowardice of the American establishment and the elite: like sheep, they submitted to the Obama spying apparatus willingly and meekly. One man only - out of 300 millions - had the self-sacrificial temerity to unmask the new totalitarian America: the majority of Americans are silent out of fear and keep munching their "freedom fries". Yeah, "freedom" and other bravado: all hat and no cattle.
15. The Syrians are heavy with the pips
Matt   (06.15.13)
At best in our militaries that is a few LT, s a WO, maybe a captain and senior NCO.s If it is true it would be because of the US decision to arm the rebels.
16. Obama is wagging the dog
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.15.13)
This Syrian escalation has everything to do with Snowden. Obama's Monica Lewinski. Expect the Russians to send the S-300s. Expect a no fly zone. Expect a bombing campaign. Expect total devastation in Syria....
17. #2
Stan Marsh ,   London   (06.15.13)
I am a friend of Israel
18. Americas involvment in Syria will lead to a disaster for Isr
Al   (06.15.13)
It start with small arms...it leads to bigger arms...it escalates to boots on the ground. It them come to the point that it handicaps Israel from defending itself against Hizbollah. Hizbollah moves into Syria and start a proxy war against Israel. Israel cant defend itself as it doesn't jive with Americas interest. Read history ...study Vietnam.. Read how America devastated SE Asia along with Laos Cambodia Vietnam. To this day the people in those countries are suffering. This is Obamas opportunity to help throttle Israel. That is his clear attempt. It has nothing to do with protecting the Syrian people.
19. Al my brother
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.15.13)
You are correct, and so we are nearing the crescendo. It is Prophecy. The time that Edom comes by force to take Jerusalem is when we will all be witness to God's Revelation. This time it is not just for the Tribes of Israel at Mt.Sinai. This time it will be for the entire world. Obama is EVIL INCARNATE. He is Nasi Gog...

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (06.15.13)
I'll know if I reach the bottom of the barrel because I'll find you there. The opinion of "most of you" is your opinion so considering the scource It carries no weight. Good luck in your search for a kindergarten. I have no idea how many there are here where I live but I am sure one of them would accept you.
