1. Lebanese Government
Tim ,   Brighton   (12.16.13)
The Lebanese Government cannot abrogate or subcontract its responsibilities for maintaining control and stability on its borders to Hezbollah Gangsters By shutting its eyes to what happens along the border it leaves the whole of Lebanons Security and future in peril yet again Nasrallah has shown time and again where HIS loyalties lie..and they are CERTAINLY not with Lebanon Once and for all Lebanon has to take FULL CONTROL of State Security and disarm Hezbollah and start the process of establishing OPEN and TRANSPARENT Channels of Communication between Lebanon and Israel Governments and Military to prevent open war that may have been triggered by lone or deranged or extremist militias Done OPENLY and TRANSPARENTLY sends a clear and decisive message to the world that it is in BOTH countries national interests to FIGHT to prevent not make war and PROTECT the peace Israel does not want war with Lebanon Lebanon does not want war with Israel So its up to Lebanon and Israel to make sure that Iran and their Hezbollah Henchmen do not drag either country into yet another war which NEITHER side wanted
2. UNIFIL,the "gang" that allowed Hezballa 100K rockets
Alan ,   SA   (12.16.13)
3. Was the shooter a Salafi dressed as Leb soldier to heat up
Alan ,   SA   (12.16.13)
the border.The aim being to get Israel involved with Lebanese Government Military.
4. My condolences
Paul ,   Kenya   (12.16.13)
Very sad, but a bit strange on a few accounts. 1) The soldier is from the navy, why is he in the Golan on duty. 2) He was driving in a civilian car while on duty. 3)He was driving on a side road, not one recommended by the military. 4) The doctor could not tell if it was shrapnel or a bullet. This story is a bit suspicious & doesnt add up. nevertheless, a young life has been loss & thats just not acceptable.
5. Interesting as to how many snipers and dead IDF soldiers
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (12.16.13)
it will take to make the issue legitimate.
6. Outrageous breach of sovereignty
Non Jewish Immigrant ,   Haifa   (12.16.13)
It is indeed an outrageous breach of sovereignty but, it's somehow ridiculous coming from Israel! Israeli armed forces breach lebanese sovereignty every single day!! They enter Lebanese airspace on a daily basis and I doubt they have the authorisation of the Lebanese army for that ! So that's rich from Ya'alon to cry out about breach of sovereignty!
7. U r stupied
Shai   (12.16.13)
There is navy base in this area ( Rosh Anikra) !
8. 6
funkyyaya ,   Israel   (12.16.13)
If the UN weren't so supportive of the Hezy boys, then Israel wouldnt need to make the flights over Lebanon....
9. Enough BS already
Marty ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.16.13)
The Arabs are masters at the art of BS. Every day acts of terrorism are simply dismissed or explained as "An unknown terrorist group ...(and then they come up with some bogus sounding name like the brothers of the martyrs of rainy Tuesdays)...claimed responsibility for..." The sovereign Lebanese Govt. is responsible for what takes place on/from its soil. Israeli reprisal is warranted because the only thing the Arabs seem to respect is force.
10. to #8
Non Jewish Immigrant ,   Haifa   (12.16.13)
the eternal mantra "if you're not with us you're against us" ...
11. Identify the killer
Toby   (12.16.13)
Then exterminate the vermin in the most painful way possible!!!
12. #6 non Jewish immigrant go back home where you belong..
Ivan ,   South Africa   (12.16.13)
13. Ivan, my home is here meanwhile
Non Jewish Immigrant ,   Haifa   (12.16.13)
14. #6 your facts are wrong
Daweed ,   Saana, Yemin   (12.16.13)
It was an administrative vehicle. When driving such vehicles you are directed to use side road and not border fence road.
15. And that's why we will never give back the Golan Heights
Jacob E ,   Holon, Israel   (12.16.13)
Why would we give the Syrians a mountain range to have their soldiers "of their own accord" shoot down at our people.
16. I know the soldiers wife
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (12.16.13)
She works where I am working. We are all shocked and saddened by her personal loss and her one year old daughter's loss. We will take our vengeance. There will be many dead in Lebanon before we get through with these bastards. I am all for supporting the Wahhabi Jihadis in Syria to fight the Hizbollah. We will murder you by the bushel and we will use your enemies to do it.
17. Time to throw fuel on the fire in Syria
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (12.16.13)
We will get even with the Hesbos and Lesbos in Lebanon. The Rebels will get the upper hand against them. We will make sure of that. Can anyone say PAYBACK!!!
18. There should be no problem to let..
Beary White ,   Norway   (12.16.13)
...a Tammuz missile go astray into an hezbolla base camp... And then Ban-Ki Moon would call restrain from the hezbolla side...
19. Peace ?
Nathan Rai ,   Bangalore   (12.20.13)
A muslim must be able to visit his two little children and a little boy. A Jew must not. The peace of Islam ?
