1. TIME TO CARPET-BOMB
RF ,   ISRAEL   (07.03.06)
2. answer
Alex ,   US   (07.03.06)
Olmert, Please, don’t wait till Tuesday. Attack Arabs now, before it became too late.
3. Gaza shall be destroyed.
(07.03.06)
Dont pull the string Arabs, it will crack.
4. Last one out, blow out the candle.
Talula ,   Israel   (07.03.06)
Typical Palestinian mentality. They can't win using strength, logic, power and brains. They feel that they HAVE to get something so as not to look like the bunch of losers that they are. So, what do they do? they give an ultimatum. How repugnant are they. I say get our boy back and blast them out of existence. I for one, have lost all patience and understanding with these people.
5. Israel should set an ultimatum of Today...
kate ,   england   (07.03.06)
for 6pm - 1 prisoner exchanged for Corporal Shalit, or palestinians shall bear the consequences. I'm going to fast and daven for this today; anyway, I know what's going to happen to gaza as our prophets actually prophesy things, whether it's sooner or whether later.
6. Ultimatum
Jacquot ,   Tel aviv   (07.03.06)
we should answer them with also a ultimatum that from now on whe sould kill one of their prisoners evrery half hours if they do not relieves our dear soldier how's only defending his right to leave in the democratic state of Israel. Figting only for peace.
7. Whatever they intent to do will only worse
keren ,   sao paulo   (07.03.06)
more and more their situation. Better they start thinking !
8. Ultimatum ?
Dan ,   Israel   (07.03.06)
Why don't Israel give them the opposite ultimatum: "we give the Palestinian enemy unitl 6 am tomorrow and if the soldier is not released we begin carpet bombing of Gaza starting with your Hamas government buildings with their staff inside". This will make a beautiful ultimatum, I guess. Remember the "Ransom" movie with Mel Gibson - Israel can learn something from it.
9. One way to respond, Mr. Merlot
sk ,   USA   (07.03.06)
Kill the entire "Palestinian" leadership stratum. Easy enough. I admit, I would also like Israel to lob some bombs into some bazaars, just for a bit of reciprocity and to show that Israel means business, but this is way too much to expect.
10. Further damages to a tarnished image !!
Hiram Al MAsry ,   Tel Aviv   (07.03.06)
Anarchic para-military cells are further tarnishing the image of an anarchic and jihadist government. Option 1 = Hanniyeh behind this and he has to accept full responsability Option 2 = Hanniyeh does not control terror cells , this demonstrate clearly that he does not represent anything in Gaza or in the territories Israel will not be blackmailed by Jihadists ! not now , not ever.
11. Find him before.............
Avraham ,   Netivot   (07.03.06)
Where is our intelegence? Why haven't we been able to locate him? If they harm Gilad put their leaders up against the wall & shoot them.
12. Israel Ultimatum & consequences
Paul ,   Perth, Western Austr   (07.03.06)
I live half a world away (thankfully). I'm not religious (whatever that means) and live a peaceful existence. I always take comfort in reading the daily hateful dialogue between israelis and palestinians of how lucky i am and to never visit that nightmarish part of the world. Both sides will never compromise their stance, why? because both actually believe in some stupid religious dogma perpetuated by fanatics on both sides. I'm willing to bet that the moderates (which probably make up the bulk of both populations) don't really give a rats arse (ie support) this hateful campaign of violence based on 'religion' is constantly perpetuated. Of course this has all been said before and may be said again. It seems that the political fanatics of both sides must always take innocent lives (in the name of security) and for that i brand those cowards, brutes and terrorists. How many more innocent people must die before each side claims a victory? It just takes one side to actually desist from its aggression and bear the brunt of its passivity from the other for a brief period before world opinion will overwhelmingly support its cause politically and destroy the credibilty of the other side. Who has the guts to do that? I would love to see..
13. If Gilad goes
Yakov Shani ,   Israel   (07.03.06)
so must Gaza, in its entirety. Not one stone to be left standing.
14. Already Dead
Moses ,   Rehovot, Israel   (07.03.06)
Shalit has been dead all along. The Arabs are not getting anything for a dead body & they know it.
15. israeli terror rears its ugly head
John Sullivan ,   Minnesota US   (07.03.06)
you people are worse than the palestinianss--you here--and all it taskes is for one IOF (O=occupation) soldier to be captured. Terrorism invovles civilians as targtes, not combatnats or other military targtes. The kidnappin go fhim is not an act of terrorism. On the contrary, what each of you prior to my post have suggested are acts of terrorism against civilians in large numbers. And these posts meet the terms of this board? I wish the whoel world could see the depravity and depths of hatred and terroisrm that rests at the heart of you apologists for Israel's treatment of the Arabs. You're actually worse than the Palestinian terrorists--those that are terrorists. The worldd--US esp.--has no idea how much hate and evil you are possessed by. You are no better than your hated palestinian enemies, and you prove that Israeli jews--adn some Jews worldwide--and other apologists--are just as immoral in their hearts as the Hamsa, IJ terroristss. Yet you're viewed in large part as "civilized" etc. The reason the Pals are viewed as terrorists and not Israel, is that Israel ahs a nation-stateee occupying the Plas, tanks, jets, nukes, etc. and can destroy the Pals without resorting to--on the surfacee "terrorism". The reailty is that when the chips are down with ONE MEASLY soldier captuerd--not yet known to be deas, you people go ballistic and your inner-terrorist comes out to play. A bunch of Pal civilians in Gaza were killed in the weeks leading up to the kidnappingg--KILLEddd--civilians, kids--and you didn't care. Now 1 SOLDIER is kidnapped--it's a JOB RISK to be attacked when you're a soldier, even more so for an imperial occupying nation--its not supposed to be an avowed civilian risk to be the target of militray violence. Live with it. 1 soldier. Maybe you now have some clue about what Pals face nearly every day when the Israel death machine kills some of their civilians. If the world knew that you people were perhaps even worse terrorists if the shoe were on the other foot, the UN would have kicked ISrael out like it should have for violating its terms of admittance long ago, the US would have cut its aid off, and Israel would have had to offer something akin to justice to the victims, the occupied Pals. Instead we get Jews from England and America calling for the mass murder of Pals--kids--as if Israel is their country. Hope you feel safe in London and I know you feel superior. You're not. No justic,no peace. Israel can't dictate justice, and it will never be safe until it starts acting like normal, civlized, Westernerss insated of middle-east hoodlums, thugs, and johnny-come-lately colonizers. 1 soldier. It's probably the best thing to happen to Israel politics in a few eyars. I hope he returns home safely, but in the meantimeee, it sure is makingg you people think, isn'tt it? 1 solider. 2500 American GI's have dieddd, needlessly, in Iraq. 1 soldier. Hundredsd of dead Pal children in the last 6 years, from the bloody handds of the IOF. 1 soldier. It's not much, yet it turns you people in bloodthirsty barbarians. Correction: It reveals you as the bloodthirsty barbarians you are. Typical mideast scum with the "ends justifieds the meansss" moral logic. isdrael pretends to be a Western country but its not. It was founded on terrorism, theft, deceit, assassaination, lies, blood, murder and it continues as suhc. Israelis a terrorist stae, terrorists to a far greater degree than what an occupied people are capable of. All of the first wave of Israeli PMs--even to Sharon, were terrorists--formally recognized as such by the world community. Yet Israel maintains a double-standard. Shalit: may there be many more to come, and to go safely home after some decent interval that will provide enough time for much needed soul-searching by you and other apologistss (and terrorists) for Israel. 1 soldier. still alive. Pals in past month? 20+ dead, civilians.
16. you all preach terrorism
john sullivan ,   minnesota US   (07.03.06)
you're all prewaching terrorism on a far greater scale than anything the Pals have doen to Israel. You're sicck. Read wht you've all written. You all call for terorism against innocent civilians who happen to be caught living in Gaza where the militants are holding Shalit. You are no better than those your profess to hate--Pal terroristss. BTW: attacks agaisnt military targets aren't terrorism. Terrorism invovles civlians as targets. Capturing a soldier is a military attack, not terrorism. Yet you prescribe--as does Israel & Olmert--terrorism as your response. You are no better than those Pal terrorists.

19. Wake up Olmert!
Ram ,   London   (07.03.06)
Time to tell the world what you intend to do if Gilad is not returned alive. Take those kid gloves off already!
20. Exchange
Mark ,   Israel   (07.03.06)
One israeli Soldier is more worth than thousand imprisoned Terrorists.
21. Bravo John Sullivan
Joe Slammer ,   World Citizen   (07.03.06)
You are expressing the opinion of millions around the world but unfortunately nothing will happened until US decides to make it happened
22. A response to John Sullivan from the U.S. - #16
Kate ,   London, UK   (07.03.06)
"You are no better than those Pal terrorists." And you live in a nation that was founded by a most terrible act of genocide and has carried out many more such acts since - at Dresden, Hiroshima, Vietnam, Cambodia, Serbia, Afghanistan and Iraq. If you are genuinely concerned about acts of terror then you should return your home to its rightful owners and go back to the land of your ancestors immediately.
23. 15 +16: John Sullivan: Little Johnny Jihad Rants
Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (07.03.06)
Johnny Jihad - reality on the ground - the terrrorism against Israel for over 77 years from arabs - that doesn't bother you - it looks you support same Why come to a Jewish Website ... to rant and support Jihad . and gloat like a Mad-Man - or rather MAU MAU Lets start with the Massacre at Hebron in 1929 http://www.gabriellegoldwater.com/2004/jun/09_07.html A History of Terrorism in Israel http://lindasog.com/public/terrorvictims.htm Kill a Jew - Go to Heaven: The Perception of the Jew in http://www.jcpa.org/phas/phas-marcus-crook-f05.htm STOP TERRORISM, the most large list of Islamic terrorists attacks http://www.almidfarah.fanspace.com/islamic_terr_even.htm

Gabrielle Goldwater ,   Geneva Switzerland   (07.03.06)
All you are - is a world Little Joe Jihad supporter now in reality you are a scared little Brat - who only can open his mouth on the Internet - otherwise - you are Little Joe with his pants down
25. #12 How Naive!!
Annie ,   USA   (07.03.06)
How many have died in Darfur waiting on the world to help? Terror does not respond to world pressure, they thrive on the publicity. Hitler killed 11 million (6 million Jews and 5 million other "expen dibles") before the world helped. I don't know the answers but it cannot be for one to lay down and take the beating. It would never stop. I am sad to say there are no morals left. People don't care what happens to someone else as long as they can back up.
26. #14 I Fear You Are Correct.

A beautiful Unfinished Life.

28. to paul from perth - #12
Dan   (07.03.06)
You don't read newspaper. For your knowledge - Israel pulled out of The area of Gazza strips. 20000 people were pulled out of their beautifyul homes (they bought and did not take from any arab) all their agriculture was destroyed and the little left to the palestinian was destroyed by the palestinians. Niether the Palestinians nor the other countries saw this passive withrdrwal favourly and did not give the Israelies their support. However' the palestinian saw this withdrwal as a sign of weakness; The bomb other Israeli cities (shderot Ashkelon and others from the settlement the Israelis pulled out. The kidnapped soldiers and a boy - the killed the boy and now the are threatening to kill the soldier if 1000 prisoners will not be freed. Do you think we have to give in again? so they will kidnap more? There is no partner in this because the Arab hate the Jews and do not want them to be in Israel. Can you tell me if there is any land for the Jew to live?
29. To Paul, Perth
John Lalor ,   Tel-Aviv   (07.03.06)
Two glaring errors, my solipsistic friend: 1. I, and many, many others I know in Israel are non-religious, but we still strongly oppose Arab terrorism and we defend the right of Israel to fight this, and for Israel to retain Jerusalem, Samaria & Judea. 2. You live in a peaceful place, where you are light years away from this terrorism? Do you think the riot on Cronulla beach was some once-off? Australia, like all other Western countries, will slip deeper and deeper into the hands of the maniacs who will kill you and your people to create sharia law.
30. Naivety of Sullivan & Slammer
John Lalor ,   Tel-Aviv   (07.03.06)
Might I assume that you, Slammer, are a disgruntled American, Brit or Australian? So, you call yourself a "World Citizen"? However, in times of trouble, would you be so quick to run from your liberal-democratic homeland, and reside in Sudan, Syria, Libya, Saudi, Iran, Gaza, etc, where human rights are a myth, and the absolute power of the dictators is unchallenable? "World Citizen," indeed. You moral relativists will never learn because you hide within the nations that protect you, while deriding them. Cowards.
