Israel are doing what every self respecting country should do, and that is to punish those who cannot bear to live with peace namely Islamist extremists. They do not take rubbish from anyone, not the EU and especially not Arabs. I come from South Africa, and our borders were under attack for years as well, but our goverment gave in after many lives were lost, and it is today one of the worst countries to live in. Also, even though innocent deaths are always regretable, most arabs here in the UK and abroad are against Israel. If they do not support Israel's attack on terror, they too should be punished. And btw, I'm not Jewish.

dismantle Hamas, Hizbolla or wateva Do it quick, harsh and send them straight into the arms of 72 virgins. The other option is to regret later

sam, They hit the airport to shut off the flow of weapons &supplies from Syria or Iran

You welcome to the 3º war that islamism is getting hard. Good luck. The OTHER part of the world means all countries and peoples non muslims that feel threatening by your intolerance, fanatism, bombings, suicide attacks, sharia's law, invations, women's right almost inexistent, lack of speach's freedom, guerrillas, terrorism anywhere. you welcome to the 3º war. god bless israel and cristians countries that stands up and don't give in to islamofascist menace.

head of nastyrallah, the black hatted trash who would like to have the brains to think..

..if Israel and the whole of the western world ever wanna live in peace we have to take out Saudi-arabia. It´s the mix of oilmoney and the strict wahabitic interpretation of Islam that funds all these worldwide terrorgroups, inclusive Hizbollah and Hamas. So next time you buy a new car, make sure it´s not dependant on oil, it´s a slow but sure way to disarm the world´s biggest threat.

whether we like it or not, it is true: america never had so many enemies as on september 12 (remember the palestinians partying in the street?), or as many friends as when baghdad fell. (and let's keep in mind that the jihadists actually want to die for their cause.) so if we cannot make the arab world like us, then for safety's sake, we must make them afraid to attack us.

That is hilarious! A Homsi, a Russian, and an Italian go to a machine that beeps everytime you tell a lie. First out is the Russian: -"I think I'm beautiful!" BEEP! The goes the Italian: -"I think I'm smart!" BEEP! Finally it's time for the Homsi: -"I think..." BEEP! It must be that "mysterious wind" that blows in Homs. :D

Take out Bashir ASAD of Syria now. Send the F-16's to Damascus tonight.

They spread the story of the suffering of Palestinians not because they sympathize with the Palestinians but only as a provocation for endless war, to turn countries they rule into warmaking machines. Palestinians, you know what they think of you in Ridyah and Beirut and Tehran. You are lower than dogs. You clean floors, you do menial jobs and then they send you a million dollars to blow up your children. How foolish are you. Do you think they care for you or that you sacrifice your children to kill their enemies. You think that if Israel is destroyed you will have a state. Do not be foolish. Egypt and Jordan and Syria will take the land for themselves. No ne will allow a Palestinian state and then when the tanks roll in, you will find what is real robbing and oppressing. When your own brothers machine gun you by the thousands in the street and the Mukhbarat take you away, then you know how good you had it and how stupid you were. Listen good, the only way you will ever have a state is under Israel's protection. Or someone's protection. You want to be ruled by the Syrians like the Lebanese? Maybe by Saudi puppets? You find out how good it is then. Fools.

Jews parading as "Arab readers" cheer the IDF on and claims that "arabs only understand force" or are you as dumb as to believe that that isn't the case.

100% lebanese, not a f...cking palestinian? Well, the world is not blind, we know what the christian falangists with Sharon did to the palestinian refugees, we know so very well how the palestinian are treated in Lebanes refugeecamps. The worst ever, compared with Gaza. You are nothing less than a racist!

too right marcel those sick communist marxist foolish traitors are now seeing even more evidence of the piece the lebanese nazis want

I'm not so sure about this statement "Arab regimes are unable to face these fundamentalist groups. " This certainly seems to apply to Lebanon, since it appears weak to handle Hizbullah. But we know that the following Arab countries have dealt a heavy blow to Islamic radicalists: Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Saud Arabia, Jordan, and now in Iraq, including the Persian Gulf countries.

dont forget your tribal abraham , you fool , if you have one historcal proof from where the cannantes have came , you will never reply to this guy, and just read more about the philistins instead of make the sound seems more arabic , it was muslumnized by mohamed who had been created by a jew rabbi , i wish you would understand , we are going into another shoah , this time is by the hands of the zionists

You'd better wise up to the fact that your days of attacking Israel are numbered. Support for you and your terrorist ways have gone down. You are standing alone now against an angry giant who has the power to destroy everything that you have. Wise up Sam.

"that is why we are on a dwindling path of force and violence." So choose another path. Choose to teach your children to love life and not hate others. Choose to vote in a government that puts the needs of its people first before rockets and bullets. Choose to make peace with Israel...because that is what Israel wants. Trust me Khalid. If you choose this path, you will not be disappointed.

Well welcome to America my friend! May the road always rise up to meet you and may God bless the USA forever.

Don't let them fool ya ! Oh NO !

There is only one way to deal with a group of people who only live to destroy. Offer them death or unconditional surrender. Should they choose to fight kill them all (there are no civilians in a war based in culture) as fast as you can until they realize that if they want to live they will have to change. Then give the remnants a place and an opportunity to recover their humanness.

I vividly recall the palestinians partying in the street and will forever have that etched into my memory. As angry and revengeful I might feel towards them...they have done far worse to themselves than anything I could ever dream of. They are stuck in the dark ages where death, destruction and hate is all they live for. They will be responsible for their own undoing.

Well said my friend. Well said! Wise up Palestinians....you can live in peace with Israel but only you can make that decision for yourselves.

I am grateful for any advice from Arab neighbors. I agree that Israel must stand up to terrorism, but I do not agree with strikes on the airport or any civilian areas unless the people there are forewarned, as Israel often does. I do not blame the people of Lebanon or their government. What can they do against Hizbollah? Strike Hizhollah and spare the lives and property of the good neighbors in Lebanon. That is my Jewish advice. . .lynne P.S. I don't like war at all. I pray for peace.

Floyd, great advice, but not so simple. I often disagree with policies and actions of my government, but I can do little about them. I have protested and written letters, sign petitions---none of it was effective. We individuals do not have such free choices because we are greatly, tremendously effected by the society around us. Most of us do the best we can. For my part, I am grateful that our Arab friends took the time to share their ideas with us. Shalom.

You see, it's people like this who have created the entire situation as it is now. My dear Algerian (if in fact your name is reflective of your origins), what you do not understand is that the true extremists are ARABS. We Jews have been extending the olive branch since before the state of Israel was ratified by vote of the United Nations. Nevetheless, the Arabs, have at least 5 times failed to form a Palestinian state. What they want today is nothing more or less than taking over the whole of the former British Mandate and to make it into a fundamentalist Islamic state. Not so good. Of course, if you're living in France, you won't have to worry about living in a fundamentalist Islamic state for at least another 20 years.

As much as I may wish for peace; I understand the need to protect your country and citizens. May God be with you. Many do not understand the terrorist thinking. Would they only consider it is WAR and if you do not eliminate your enemy he/she/it will eliminate you.

Israel is using too much unjustified power; it’s like a high school student hitting a 1st grader, shame on you Israel Army! What Hezbollah did is taking Israel army soldiers as hostages to exchange them with Hezbollah soldiers which Israel have, taking into consideration that Israel is still occupying a Lebanese territories, and the conflict between Israel and Lebanon is not yet solved. In fact Hezbollah didn't do anything unethical nor illegal but Israel is hitting civilians not military or soldiers, I wonder why they're doing such an unethical things to the people of lebanon. What a shame... Mike

The occupation army which has Nazals and Azzams in its ranks can dream and it wishes, hoever the fact is still clear 310 million Arabs will never surrderner nor forget their rightful ownership in Yafa, Haifa and Safed

I will enjoy watching Israel destroy the pathetic Arab countries of Iran and Syria. I feel bad for the 50% of people in Lebanon who do not want war, but, just like USA had Martin Luther King JR to set the country straight, the Muslim world continues to lack a peaceful leader who can lead them away from their ultimate destruction.

I hope your family will be safe; Israel is trying to target only Hizbullah sites but there might be unintended innocent Lebanese victims. Without the presense of Hizbullah and the Syrian stranglehold we (as in Israel and Libanon) should have been able to have had good neighbourly relations with oneanother decades ago. I'm praying that the Lebanese will wake up and throw Hizbullah out of their country; you can't expect Israel to fight your battles too eh? Thank you for your support; it doesn't come cheap like some here.
