1. Bibbi is a cowardly fool.
naro ,   jerusalem   (07.15.14)
It took NATO 120 days of bombing in Kosovo to achieve victory, and 90 days to defeat Ghadaffy. Bibi is a yellow man on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Kick him out of office and put a man in charge.
2. another bitter and embarrassing defeat for Israel
CHAIM.S ,   ocean pkwy.brooklyn   (07.15.14)
of course it shouldn't come as a surprise,with a criminally insane pathetic cowardly leftist self hating government running this country,did we expect a different result? Israel has lost all the respect and fear the Arabs once had,well they actually lost their own self respect, a few thousand Hammas terrorist's fought the IDF to a virtual draw, Israel under this traitorous regime has become the punching bag and the laughing stock of the middle east. This sorry spectacle has not missed the eyes of Hezbbolah,they just saw how bombarding Israel with thousands of rockets has absolutely no consequences,they just got a green light to unleash their approximately 40,000 rockets on Israel,it is only a matter of time and they will do exactly what Hamas has done, This cowardly self hating government,has turned all of Israel into a new version of the Warsaw ghetto,where millions of jews have to hide in underground bunkers,in fear of their lives Citizens of Israel is this why you had to come back to your god given homeland? People of Israel,in the ,please please vomit out this cowardly self hating leftist regime or start packing your bags,in any other normal country ,this traitorous government would be hanging from the gallows for the crime of high treason
3. To celebrate let's release a 1000 more terror prisoners
Jhan   (07.15.14)
Booboo booboo he's our man if he can't do it no one can! /sarcasm off
4. No prisoner releases.
Israelit ,   Israel   (07.15.14)
Hamas is in no position to make demands. Bibi don't fold again.
5. CEASE to listen , FIRE !
Observer ,   Israel   (07.15.14)
6. To: Facebook Hassam Arafa
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.15.14)
All in good time, dear. We will leave Hamas humiliated and broken. Then, we will move on Hezbollah. Nasrallah's bunkers are not nearly deep enough to shield his cowardly hindquarters from Israeli wrath -- and vengeance. We know Hezbollah is not responsible for the recent missile fire into Israel. But that does not mean that we will not hold Hezbollah accountable. If Nasrallah cannot control his minions, Israel will do it for him. What happens after that is largely up to the Arabs, isn't it? Saudi Arabia understands. As does Abu Dhabi. As does Dubai. Qatar needs a little more schooling, as do the Jordanians. That's coming. Israel is here to stay. The Arab communities need to come to terms with that -- or die. It's really all that simple. We're about out of patience.
7. How about Hamas handing over those murderers
Naomi   (07.15.14)
The Palestinians are always asking and Israel giving. We found the murderer of Arab teens within days; while they continue to hide the murderers of our 3 teens. So release those arrested terrorists - no way! By the way, Israel supplies water and electricity to them, and allow tons of supplies to go through. But why everything needs to be checked even by Egyptian borders, because Palestinians are still importing and making weapons of terror, and attacking Israel every now and then. Cease fire only benefits Hamas to fake a victory and gain time for launching next attack. The world is blind. The worst is US. They are as good an ally as Hamas.
8. Hamas and Gaza
marianne hatchwell ,   Jerusalem Israel   (07.15.14)
When anyone mentions the deaths of civilians in Gaza, it should be accompanied systematically by stating the fact that Hamas consistently tyrannises the local population and forces people to remain in the houses about to be bombed. This is tantamount to murder but the world continues to diminish and ignore this atrocity.
9. Every measure must be taken to not remove the Jew killers
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (07.15.14)
The US IL UN EU RU and the ayroobs (ironically to a lesser extent) have all invested so much in keeping them, arming them, feeding them, training them who come to kill you. BB serves not your interests but you literally who come to kill you and literally eat you when he orders those sworn to remove the threat to instead remove you from the land you love is named for you and protects you and orders them to remove your weapons to abandon you and your land to those that literally eat you.
10. What doest the Ishmalim say? eat eat eat the Jew eat eat eat
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (07.15.14)
as if ynet doesn't censor the truth
11. SO SAD ISRAELIS HAVE NEIGHBORS WHO ONLY UNDERSTAND
B.E. ,   Whangarei, nz   (07.15.14)
THE LANGUAGE OF BULLETS, BOMBS AND DEATH. SO SAD ALSO YOUR LEADERS HAVE GOTTEN DRUNK ON PC KOOLAID. OBAMAS LIPS ARE TAINTED WITH IT, AND HIS RING REPORTEDLY IS IN ARABIC. SOMETHING ABOUT THAT A_____ god.
12. You can't fix stupid...
Jhan   (07.15.14)
Israel has lost another big chip of goodwill from her supporters... You just cannot help such imbeciles...
13. if israel could it would
james ,   ny usa   (07.15.14)
all of you people calling for Israel to reject the cease fire are crazy and ignorant, Israel is begging for a ceasefire, Israel is weak, if it was able to beat and destroy Hamas it would have done so looooooooooooong time ago, but it cant and it is terrified of the potential casualties it would suffer in case of ground attack... so imagine what Hezbollah Syria or iran would do to Israel, just the thought of it is hilarious lol
14. @#$!@
Steve ,   USA   (07.15.14)
Again the pressure from outside was too much. And WTF is the US telling Israel "..the US warned against any ground invasion by Israel of the Gaza Strip.." Butt out and let Israel do what it feels is necessary. The US Administration is not qualified to give military advise on any one, especially to Israel. When it comes to Israel's own security interests, Israel can decide for itself when and how. As for Hamas dictating it's demands!! LOL. Kerry...LOL also.
15. Iron dome big lie
observer ,   Egypt   (07.15.14)
it succeeded only in intercepting general Israeli consensus. When a rocket is suspected the system computer creates hypothesized 10 possible paths and 9 more missiles are fired. When people hear explosions it’s not from interception but from rather self-destruction of the expired missiles. No debris have been found from any presumably intercepted Palestinian rocket. That’s hard reality on the ground. That means the system computer creates only virtual reality interception, nothing more! Look what the IDF say 15% accuracy, indeed this is absolutely not a good accuracy.The open field fraud theory is only to cover this big big inaccuracy of the 6 iron dome systems costing tens of millions $.
16. what will prevent more rockets/drones?
dante   (07.15.14)
one can be certain that the moment pressure is off the terrorists in gaza, they will begin to re-stock their arsenal and, when they feel like provoking a confrontation or launching an attack, they will do so. what will stop them? and, the next time, they will have more powerful missiles/drones. I am not in favour of a ground war; Israel should persist in destroying infrastructure of terror from the air. what? kerry doesn't like it? too effing bad. let him endure a missile attack.
17. Murderer?
David Cohen   (07.15.14)
If Netanyahu agrees to a ceasefir he will have jewish blood on his hand. The same cowardly move that Barak and later Olmert took in Lebanon, Ashkenazi Jews are real naive thinking than and educated arab becomes human or that an arab terrorist will responde to niceties by becoming a good person. Sharon was made to pay for his mistake. Lets hope that netanyanu learnt soemthing from it.
18. No ceasefire without without these conditions
Derek ,   Las Vegas, NV   (07.15.14)
1) Complete surrender of all rockets in Gaza and West Bank, and perhaps southern Lebanon 2) Full, unrestricted inspection of Gaza and West Bank for weapons caches 3) Continued access to monitor for rockets and weapons systems for no less than 25 years 4) Surrender of those responsible for the rocket attacks 5) if the above conditions are not met, the operation continues.
19. No this is wrong!
USA   (07.15.14)
HAMAS is a non-nation terror organization. Palestine never existed as a sovereign nation. Here you have a terrorist organization attacking a sovereign nation Israel. There should NEVER be any deal on these terms! Here the least of what should happen: 1) All factions in Gaza turn in all weapons; small arms to missiles. UN teams inspeact all of Gaza to ensure compliance. 2) HAMAS leaders hauled off to world court for Crimes Against Humanity -- SPECIFICALLY targeting civilians in a non-combat zone. 3) Gazans and WB Palis repay Israel the 1.2$ billion in money owed for electricity. 4) Gaza and Pali Arabs pay 100% of Israel's cost of this military operation. That amounts to a couple hundred thousand USD. I'm sure you people working in international law can up with a couple more items.
20. Gaza Run By Multi-Headed Beast
emanon ,   USA   (07.15.14)
If PLO agrees to cease fire, Hamas says they did not. If Hamas says they agree to cease fire, Hizbullah says they did not. If Hizbullah agrees to cease fire, Islamic Jihad says they did not. This is the Gaza coalition government: a multi-headed beast structured to allow Gazans to continue killing Jews . Whatever one head says, the others deny. It is that simple.

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (07.15.14)
Are you calling Obama a liar? He said he was a muslim in an interview with George Stephanopoulos and George had to correct him. I guess his telepromter wasn't working that day.
22. Ring!Ring!Ring!! End of Round 6.

23. Opinion...
Joya   (07.15.14)
Rockets fire and wars are one of the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. The wars in mediterranean arabic countries as Egypt, Lybia and Syria were altering the carbon cycle—adding more CO2 to the atmosphere which affects the climate change. Remember 2013/2014 winter season didnt rain. Join water resources, and build trust and prevent conflicts.
24. whome israel is fooling
observer ,   Egypt   (07.15.14)
