1. At a time like this it is best to be quiet
Al   (08.27.13)
Stop pining to the cameras and stop trying to pretend. The only ones to safeguard Israel at this stage are our soldiers. They deserve our full support and prayers. There are no non believers in the foxholes. The trick is to get the bastard on the other side to die for his country. May GOD protect our dear soldiers.

Yaalon's remarks would have have been much more effective in scaring the enemy, if he'd made them in palin language instead of pontificating as he did. He sounded like an arab. All he had to say was " if they attack us we'll hit them with everything we've got. It'll be total war. It's their choice. Do they think they"ll bebetter off?
15. If only...
John Prophet   (08.28.13)
“Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong – these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.” ― Winston Churchill

19. A very wise man once said.
(08.28.13)
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science – the science against which it had vainly struggled – the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.” ― Winston Churchill
20. tough talk
(08.28.13)
Netanyahu released terrorists who murdered children and Holocaust survivors for the privilege of talking to a Holocaust denier how to surrender IDF used paintballs to fight IHH terrorists, and later apologized to the terrorists. Livni surrendered to Hezbolla after they kidnapped and murdered IDF soldiers. The talk is tough, but the IDF doesn't look that mighty
21. # 3 You know what they say...
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (08.28.13)
about pride? It goeth before the fall. You are going to learn that to your sorrow.
22. Israel must be on fell alert.....!
Calabi ,   Sydney Aust   (08.28.13)
When Morsi try to be an Islamic sultan the Egyptians revolt, even the army. Arabs all over the world and the whites leftist almost succeeded to make a political earth quake globally. What a reaction? When Syria an Arab nation used WMD it is so calm, what a kind peace time!!! This speak a big political body language against Israel! Sure Israel must be ready and all out to protect her peaceful loving citizens the children and grand children of the holocaust surviving population and all others. God bless Israel
23. Really
tom ,   new york   (08.28.13)
Israel can't even deal with MK's Tibi and Zoabi , shut off water and electricity to Gaza , and just fired 5,000 veteran officers.
24. Stupidity
tom ,   new york   (08.28.13)
Yaalon should keep quiet , the Russians will keep on sending arms to Syria. Let the US intervene , the UN won't condemn England , France , and the US but it will Israel.
25. The GOD of Israel
Kisid ,   oslo, Norway   (08.28.13)
you know what the word of GOD said, ''He will not allow your foot to be moved, He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day or the moon by night.'' In Jesus name Amen.
