1. Money laundering banks
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.15.13)
American and Chinese banks have been caught laundering money several times for drug cartels and illegal arms trades (remember Scarface). They are all hypocrites and opportunists. The US govt via the CIA have been caught shipping drugs in from South America to the streets of America several times . Who the Hell are you kidding? So China wants to do buisness? We can do buisness... Bankers are all bastards. Politicians are all bastards. Terror victims are poor dead victims unfortunately. China is just as corrupt as Europe or America if not more so, that does not mean we cannot be trading partners. Obama is falling fast, America is falling fast. We have to think of our future and our survival. Our future is not with a dying west.
2. A little tit for tat?
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (07.15.13)
obama met with the Saudi King and decided afterwards to fully support the Syrian rebels AKA Al Qaeda. obama's getting a taste of his own medicine. How does it taste ? Bitter? KEEP BUILDING !!!!!
3. New Trend: Nations will move away from USA. Slowly slowly...
Yank Pipchk ,   Baltimore   (07.15.13)
Its a mess out there..
4. ruffled feathers
Arn ,   Yehud, Israel   (07.15.13)
Goodness, the Unites States is outraged at Israel...absolutely outraged! Well, Israel is outraged too... at continuous US backstabbing with their criminal leaks... Pollard... the sale of our military defence inventions... the list is virtually endless. But I don't see any feathers being ruffled by this racist, Communist and altogether criminal regime.
5. Outrageously Double Standards *HSBC
Tambour ,   Eilat   (07.15.13)
HSBC , The Global Bank involved in £400 Billion money laundering For Drugs and Hamas Terror. HSBC Bank suggested to FED that if it were sanctioned by USA, Banking system would be destabilised. USA dropped its case.
6. The Trip
Jake ,   Israel   (07.15.13)
Bibi had to go because Sara told him so !
7. What about justice for our own?
(07.15.13)
Isn't it in Israel's best interest to take part??? Regardless of Obama and his politics, the bombing happened here on our soil killing our citizens. Why would we not join the fight against Hamas who are a stone-throw away from us???
8. obama rouge president of rogue nation. cannot be trusted

9. what is the difference
(07.15.13)
between american aid and funds to abbas, to anti israel ngo's, to the unhrc, to the terrorists islamists everywhere than what israel is doing? america finances those terrorists all over the world which end up killing jews and israelis. israel has a robust business with china. israel has its own interests here as well. israel is sovereign and independent and takes care of its interests which sometimes don't coincide with american interests. israel was very alarmed as to why the usa administration leaked that israel bombed latakia just a couple of days ago. what the usa did was not in israel's interest, but in american interests. so, what is the difference.
10. What a distraction!
Brod ,   USA   (07.15.13)
Congress should be focusing on impeaching Hussien the Islamist for destroying America's economy with 16.5 Trillion Dollars in National Debts, and for cowing to the Islamist-Jihadist-Wahhabhist-Muslim Brotherhood world-father of Islamist-Jihadist terrorism around the world. Bashing China is just a distraction from the perils that America faces.
11. USA under Obama not a trustworthy ally
Shep Fargotstein ,   Memphis, TN   (07.15.13)
Let's face it: Obama is going to the mat to support the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the MB is tied at the hip with ALQuida and the Salafists in the Sinai. If this doesn't make America an untrusted ally by Israel and all the "pro-Western" Arab states like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UAE - what would? Obama is leading American Mid East foriegn policy into a multi-decade disastor where long-term alliances will be broken across the board. I may not agree with Israeli officials not testifying in a domestic terror case, but then again Obama can't demand anything of Israel while he is leaking sensitive Israeli secrets to the NYTs. Obama should be impeached for conspiring with the enemy.
12. It's bad news and especially it is bad us, the US.
leo ,   usa   (07.15.13)
13. Israel is always between a rock and a hard place :^(
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem Israel   (07.15.13)
14. With the economy'n all, can USA afford to irritate China?
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.15.13)
If we want to "take care" of Hamas we can do it in 1 hour, between lunch and supper. Money talks, BS walks seems to hold for now....
15. US NO MORE
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A./Israel   (07.15.13)
I have said many times here: US no more! Israel has to look ahead, to find real, reliable and generous partners. Look East.. China, India.. these are our real friends, the ones that can support us truly in difficult times, in different arenas. US has become a burden for Israel and will lead us nowhere. This trial could be a good turning point in this rotten relation.
16. Israel backs out of terror suit
Harold ,   USA   (07.15.13)
Netanyahu does everything to please his wife Sarrah. He has to be investigated every move he moved since the day he was elected to be PM.
17. #1
Harold ,   USA   (07.15.13)
Your comment is to fat and has no value. Just make a short comment stating "INVESTIGATE NETANYAHU AND FIND THE TRUTH" Period
18. Why AmeriKa is looking to betray us?
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.15.13)
THE PETRODOLLAR for starters. The Suez Canal, the Sumed pipeline, the Straits of Hormuz, the Gulf States and their oil, the military investment in Saudia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc. These all trump AmeriKa's support for Israel. The betrayal has already begun. OBAMA=NASI GOG
19. Tom @14, actually it is China that needs to worry.
leo ,   usa   (07.15.13)
If US goes so will few trillions of dollars that US owes to China.
20. You hypocrites!
Boreme ,   Sin City   (07.15.13)
You are basically acknowledging that the ego your small little country is more important than the fight against terror you are always bashing in everybody´s face at every possible opportunity. But, of course, it´s only the black guy´s fault. Who else? One day even you will realize only your own hubris will have brought about your end.
21. The Prime Minister & family danced on the graves of victims!
Terror Survivor ,   Israel   (07.15.13)
wow! we are nothing but canon fodder to the Prime Minister. let's get out of the way & NOT interrupt his vacation nor his wife's let's go abroad shopping spree!
22. #20, interesting
Israeli ,   Haifa   (07.15.13)
Your words are exactly what every one on this side of the world thinks of the US. And, we are all watching your day to come....and. It will. And your post? From Sin City no less....
23. #17 harry sack MIND YOUR OWN
(07.15.13)
Business, your A Shmuck Soooo who cares what you have to say, get lost! #1 Dror lives a nightmare EVERY SINGLE DAY, because of the chief mooslum in charge!!! Keep up the GREAT POST Dror!!! Shalom My Friend Baruch Ha Shem
24. Sarah B.
DavidR ,   USA   (07.15.13)
If you hate the US so much why don't you get to hell out? Is it against your personal and financial interests, hypocrite?
25. # 1 Dror add to that..
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (07.15.13)
at least two massage Italian-Vatican bank scandals that would appear to have the makings of a great spy novel. If I didn't know better, I'd think that the Vatican banks sponsors the mafia. Will Rogers said it best, " America has the best politicans' money can buy." He could have added bankers to the list and Arab oil nations that own the White House and, the Vatican and mafia marriage.
26. #10 - There are no constitutional reasons to impeach
spyguy ,   seattle   (07.15.13)
Obama. Your rabid , irrational hatred bordering on racism is NOT a valid reason.
27. 4 "ruffled feathers," well said
CJK   (07.15.13)
obama thought that he could bully, backstab, israel, humiliate her all the time, without repercussions. well, obama was wrong. israel has alternatives to the obama administration. as i posted yesterday, Israel should cancel the prohibitively expensive F-35. israel should aim for independence from the us. obama loses all us allies because he so arrogant and incompetent and unreliable. now, I would not fully rely on the chinese either. they extorted a very high price just for a state visit. they are not reliable either.
28. #15 - Sarah you really need to get out of your bubble
spyguy ,   seattle   (07.15.13)
If you think China or India will not strip mine Israel for resources, then stab Israel in the heart and throw Israel overboard after it is a hollow shell, you vastly misunderstand the Chinese and Indian cultures. The ONLY country that is even close to being friendly with Israel is the US. Every other country on earth will treat Israel far, far worse. China, India and the rest of the nations are ONLY interested in one thing, exploiting Israel until it is bled dry. Israel has no friends.
29. # 1 Dror add to that..
