31. BS reporting. Hamas fired mortars even during the ceasefire.
Jake   (07.17.14)
And EVERY palestinian "report" on casulaties should be treated as suspect until it can be verified. WHO BENEFITS? The anti-Israel blood libel as proven to be one of the most effective weapons in the palestinian arsenal.
32. Somebody must have whispered in Bibi's ear, that the votes
tom ,   tel aviv   (07.18.14)
for Likud in the next elections are in the single-digit domain....What a shameful, cowardly figure he cuts!
33. Mariana Oz "Hamas makes them shield"???
Albrecht ,   EU   (07.17.14)
"Hamas makes them shield"? For what? Sand on the beach? You are so brainwashed nation. No less than Germans in the 30-ties believing, each Jew is a "Bolshevik" (at that time it meant something worst than "terrorist" today)
34. ALL THE BEST
Joseph Gilliet ,   Norway   (07.18.14)
May Elohim be with you,and give you Victory.
35. Re: IDF tanks on Gaza border.
Baltimore Observer ,   Baltimore, USA   (07.18.14)

36. Eretz Tzion Yerusahlayim
ASTRONAUT ,   SC, USA   (07.18.14)
HATIKVAH in my heart and prayers for Eretz Tzion. G-d be with you Brave Maccabees! And may your forces bring the dawn of True Peace B'Yisrael.
37. When will Hamas let the people go to safety
DOV ,   USA   (07.17.14)
Hamas are deliberately putting civilians in harms way. How could they have support from the population. I don't understand.
38. CLEAN-UP ACTION LONG OVERDUE
joyce fraser ,   USA   (07.17.14)
There is only one way to deal with those who are bent on destruction and murder. Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, ISIS, Taliban, Al Qaeda, and other similar murderous Islamic organizations, must be neutralized, PERMANENTLY. The rest of the world's peoples and nations better wake up and do something - by all means available - to stop the CONTINUING DANGEROUS AND DEADLY ENCROACHMENT by Islamic extremists ... ... which is moving full speed ahead and ready to bring ruin to all!
39. To Israel and the Mighty IDF:
Steven Branson ,   USA   (07.18.14)
You're in my/our prayers! May God hold you safely within His hands, and may he comfort you during these difficult times. God bless Israel. Praying for the peace of Jerusalem. Christian Zionist
40. Go IDF!!!
Faith ,   Rishon LeZion   (07.17.14)
Bomb them all, bomb the whole damn city, a nest of terrorists. They are all Hamas supporters, they are trying to kill all of us here in Israel. The civilians there are not innocent at all. Too bad they have to die, but it's what they want. The world watches, and doesn't care about us. So who cares? Stay safe IDF soldiers, you are all wonderful! Praying for your safety.
41. israel- Gaza war
Dan ,   Montevideo- R.O.U.   (07.18.14)
Numbled .Both the fighters of gaza and the cabinet in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv.All are numbled since the murderers of 3 yeshiva boys escaped misteriously .I hope ynetnews and its excellent analists will be serious in their analysis of whats coming .Lets see what results of the ground Invasion More war revenge ?? could be .....perhaps not and instead finally shalom peace salaam pas.... hopefully ..Lets wait and see . LEHITRAHOT
42. WE'RE ALL WAITING FOR THE COUP DE GRASSE TO FALL ON GAZA.
Jewishness ,   ATLANTA GA USA   (07.17.14)
BEFORE, I SAID SOONER THE BETTER, BUT NOT NOW...not anymore. NOW, I WANT TO SEE A PROTRACTED DISSOLVING OF HAMASS' ENTIRE WAR MACHINE down TO THE LAST BULLET, slingshot and rock.... they can keep their "leadership" BUT without arms...big arms, small arms, ALL arms. COMPLETE DEMILITARIZED AREA...no exceptions.
43. I ENJOY THE HOME DESTRUCTIONS OF HAMASS' MILLIONAIRE AGENTS!
Jew 6Pack ,   ATLANTA GA USA   (07.17.14)
HERE, Hamass' criminal leadership and it's agents STRUGGLED AND FOUGHT FOR THOSE MILLION$ OF STOLEN schekels, dollars and euros, all DONATED FUNDS, skimmed off SO THEY COULD BUY THEIR ultra costly apts. and luxury VILLAS IN GAZA...AND then the IDF comes along and blows their investments to dust. I enjoy this show immensely, don't you? Of the 1200 BRAND NEW Hamass' millionaires, I wonder how many so far have lost their "investments? AND ARE NOW HAMASS' EX-MILLIONAIRES" Can't never be enough for me! Go IDF, GO!
44. Elohim is with you, IDF! He has Michael the Arch Angel
Rivkah   (07.17.14)
who is the guardian angel of Israel, leading the heavenly host at your side and before you! No enemy on Earth can defeat the heavenly host. Ask Elohim to open your spiritual eyes to see the angels at your side and in front of you, guarding you and fighting with you. In WWII, some Allied airplanes returned to Britain with dead crews. It was not possible for the airplanes to return to Britain unless angels were flying the airplanes. Supernatural is the name of the game in Israel's wars which means Elohim has His heavenly host (army) fighting with the IDF!!
45. Don't stop until you reach Egypt.
David ,   Hartford USA   (07.17.14)
Wipe out Hamas and any supporters that are stupid enough to show their faces. Maybe al-Sisi will send the Egyptian army from the south to trap all of Hamas and finally wipe them out. Haniyeh and Mashaal are short timers in the land of the living. But I'm sure they'll give themselves up because the cowards won't fight. They've sent hundreds of young Gazans to die in this pathetic jihad against Israel while they and their families are safe from the dangers. This would be a good time for the people of Gaza to revolt against Hamas and point them out to the IDF. G-dspeed to the IDF. Be careful and stay together.
46. children killed, who is responsible?
Larry ,   LA (formerly)   (07.17.14)
The Arabs like to play up the killing of children as if to say, 'see how bad the Jews are, they kill children'. But how did children go wandering outside? Why did the residents of Gaza elect a war mongering terrorist group like Hamas to start a war with Israel? Did they expect us to sit with our thumbs in our mouth as they shell our cities hoping to kill our children? Who is responsible for the children in Gaza being killed? Obviously it is the people in Gaza. They began this war, they tried to kill us and our children. If they cared for their children, they would have never elected Hamas, they would have never let their children go outside to play when there is a bombing. The world cries for the death of innocent children but it is the parents and their representatives, Hamas, who are to blame.
47. YNET POST MY TB>>>>To all lovers of Israel ....
Al   (07.17.14)
As a Father of an IDF soldier who is in harms way as I write, I urge you to pray for the welfare of the IDF and her brave soldiers. All of Israel is one and only through strength, resolve and determination will we be able to succeed. Our soldiers are our children who have been tasked with the job of protecting us older folk. Pray for their well being. The anti-Semites have always hated us and killed us. They never needed an excuse. The fact that we existed was an excuse in itself. There is no cause effect relationship, to their hatred. God Bless the IDF...God Bless our Soldiers...God Bless the good people of Israel.
48. bibi's alleged thinking reported in other media
hy   (07.17.14)
bibi's alleged thinking about gaza strategy reported in other media shows a pathetic nervous nellie. 1) he worries about idf casulaties in a ground operation just as he was shot as a commando 2) He is unclear as to what to do hoping the international community does it for him which they won't. 3) he has no ability whatsoever to tell obama NO. 4) He underestimates the value of the idf to EU and USA since both stand weakly before russian games in Ukraine, europe scared like hell and obama drastic cuts to uS troops. 5) IDF has the abilility to finish hamas. Yaalon knows what to do. Instead bibi is led by olmert fan Lapid(no security experience and avowed withdrawal enthusiast) and livni(who believes the lebanon UN resolution stopped hezbollah smuggling). DANON WAS DEAD RIGHT. Even shlomo avineri an original osloist now admits palestinian so called wants nothing to do and will not accept a jewish state even if they had their own state. Actually they have no interest in their own state. Israel had lots to do to overcome olmert and his ruinous offers and disastrous handling of hezbollah. Bibi has relegated israel to a whining defensive banana republic aided and abetted by shiffer of ynetnews . Hamas looks like the strong guy. Bennet and leiberman along with some of likud should bring the government down to throw out bibi and now.
49. kerry and france-shut up and stay out of this
jesus   (07.18.14)
who cares that france is worried about ground invasion. Stay the hell out of our business or Israel will take action against you. As for obama, you also stay out of this cause you and kerry caused this outbreak to occur by stoking false expectations and concessions. Stay the hell out of this. IDF-go all the way, don't stop. Do not answer any ceasefire calls that the arabs eu and usa will make along with the UN stooge ban ki moon. Mind your own fZ***n business, you bloody bastards.
50. Israel has AGAIN sent in ground forces but to what degree
M.S. ,   mpls america   (07.18.14)

REPEATED IN... 1889 1903 23 33 46 47 56 67 73 2006 2009 2011 so on time alone will tell us me us you RIGHT ??? and so another object failure with Israel eventually with drawing failing totally because of world pressure and or will it be DIFFERENT D I F F E R E N T ??? this time again time alone and so at 70 I need certain miracle medicines cures to save me from time old age I just hope this time things may be more accomplished less accomplished whatever and so time alone any way will things happen else where with say Korea how about that Russian rebels Ukrainian terrorists shot down supposedly a Malaysia air liner with 295 aboard along the Russia Ukraine border thus killing in One 1 MOMENT more than Israel has killed in Ten 10 days of heavy bombing attacks against GAZA what does this tell us ??? any way WHICH ISRAEL is it this time... the usual Mouse Israel that runs with its tail between its legs at the FIRST 1 st sign sight of being called a non humane non humanitarian butcherer and or a brave defiant stand up to world pressure Israel ??? any way 7 17 2014 A DAY THAT MAY LIVE IN INFAMY ??? ironicialy the same day the BRITISH PRO GOLF OPEN starts and so 1 2 3 BIG ??? YAHOO HEAD LINES... NICE... and so.. I just hope some how a miracle at 70 can save me... before it is too late... RIGHT ??? Thank You... M.S.
51. Israel agreed, twice ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.18.14)
... to a cessation of hostilities. I don't know why Hamas didn't jump at the opportunity, but they didn't, and the rest is -- or will soon be -- history. Israel will not stop until Hamas is wiped out. And that is a VERY good thing. Don't stop there, though. Israel must retake all of Gaza, and send all the terrorist flotsam and jetsam that try to pass themselves off as "innocent civilians" -- they are neither -- to Qatar. What with Qatar being their most vocal supporter, I'm sure that that nearly-empty, very wealthy little sheikhdom would me MORE than delighted to take in the crap from Gaza. Then Israel can annex it, and start monitoring the border with Sinai. Clean out the terrorist enclaves there. al Sisi will be more than delighted -- he has no use for Hamas, and even less for the terrorist riffraff in the Sinai.
52. Israel must seize Gaza terror entity
CJK   (07.17.14)
the savage islamists must be put under the control of israel. all exits of gaza must be controlled by israel. these barbarians infiltrated israel with the purpose of massacring every human, including children, in one of the kibbutzim on the gaza border. such attempt at crime against humanity cannot be allowed to continue.
53. It seems Hamas is digging its own grave no cease fires RIGHT
M.S. ,   mpls america   (07.18.14)
By ignoring refusing the United Nations Egyptian cease fires continuing to fire rockets Hamas may be digging its own grave forcing Israel to send in ground forces to locate terror tunnels so on I just hope this time to try to find the hidden rocket launchers terrorists also too who operate them I realize Hamas hides goes by other names to appear divided but then any Arab 16 - 40 years old living in Gaza is may be considered a Hamas terrorist soldier no doubt just like any country thus Israel must be prepared to confront the entire population no doubt I just hope this time the ground forces stop over looking real objectives just to satisfy HUMANE HUMANITARIAN GROUPS who really are just HAMAS TERRORIST FRONTS RIGHT any way good luck to the Israeli ground forces I just hope it is no not too late... RIGHT ??? Thank You... M.S.
