How easy for you all to critisize and comment, and to push others to make war while sitting comfortably in front of your screens. I wonder what would you think if you have such war on your own ground. In lebanon we have 3000 9/11s! Your media is misleading you! WAKE UP AND SEE THE TRUTH: Lebanon has 4 prisoners in Israel since 1980, why? because they are brave resistants. Since 2000 hezballah is negociating to get them back. No results. With the israelis, it seems that the hezballah's way of today is the best way to get them back. All lebanes people, CRISTIANS & MUSLIMS are all with hezballah. We have great respect for them because they are decent fighters. Israel is seeking war. Moreover, israel is still occupying lebanese lands. WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST? rmember, if hezballah's aim is to fight israel without reasons, they could have launched those rockets long time ago. A little bit of logic guys!!!

They are just as loud and as dumb as their bretheren in the Middle East. Its the ARAB mentality - d**k swingers. In high school the Lebs tried to gang up on the Jews and we beat them up - HARD. And they are still losing, no matter where they are. What a bunch of losers, they let their country be hijacked by terrorists - they get what they deserve

Sorry, z, but there is a finite supply of martyrs. Too bad you have nothing to live for, that a day at the beach, a new piece of music heard on the radio, meals with family and friends, and the knowledge that your progeny might have a better life do not fulfil the yearings of your soul. Because if they did, you would count the casualties of violence and war, as we Westerners do. We Westerners never forget, either. When the Lebanese blew up the Marine barracks in 1983, they guaranteed that over two decades later, President Bush would do no more than politely ask the IDF and IAF not to _completely_ destroy your country.

DOES ISRAEL NOT HAVE THE DESIRE TO DESTROY THESE ROCKETS. OLMERT, ISRAELI CITIZENS ARE GETTING HURT. LETS HURT SOME HIZB AND SOME LEB CIVIALIANS. THE RULES ARE SET BY HIZB, THEY TARGET CIVILIANS, AND ISRAEL TARGETS, CEMENT? TO HELL WITH THE RESTRAINT -END THIS NOW

I was shocked and horrified to read about the atrocities committed by the israeli army and reported very vividly in the independent today by the veteran ME correspondent Robert Fisk. It is not arab propagnada but a careful assessment of the war by a guy who is independent and has unquestionable integrity and corroborates what the BBC and other UK media have reported. Civilised countries don't behave like this. I remeber when London and other UK cities were attacked by the IRA for 30 years but we never did to the catholic population in NI anything near to What Israel is doing now. Israel is behaving like Serbia under Milosovic and the whole civilised world condemns its actions unreservedly James

Israel left Gaza, not true!! left Lebanon, not true!! Israel penetrated the air space of Lebanon every single day since they withdrew. This is not acceptable, and Hizbollah has the right to not accept it and fight it as hard as possible. Israel kept on assassinating Palestinians political leaders, and people in GAza. They penetrated the air space, controlled the borders, and the sea. They transformed Gaza into a big prison. This is not acceptable. No human will accept it, let alone a Muslim or who believe in Justice, and Pride. If you cannot understand that treating people respectfully, and equally, you'll never have peace. Live Long Lebanon! Live Long Hamas!

In your stupidity and arogance and ignorance with your brains wash-up by your mujabollajs(how many books are sold/day in the arab world???) you can't understand a simple equation: if Israel is in existential danger -despite other times in history-it'll take the entire world with it. You don't understand that a simple atomic bomb will led to life in the region and further more ....keep making equations....

Israel is as week as it has never been before. How comes a terror organization can fire rockets and missiles on Israeli cities for a few days and why is Nasrallah still alive? Why the hell is IDF bombing bridges, airports and civilians, instead of Hezbollah leaders? It could have ended in one day!! Who cares about what UN and EU have to say, all they do is just talk and vote, vote and talk anyway. Israel needs to take serious and strong actions to make sure terrorists won't attack us again. I'm sitting here at home in Haifa and hear our airplanes flying all over the skies, there's a 'boom' in the sky very couple minutes, they should not be here! They should be in Lebanon, Siria and Iran bombing the hell out of their cities to show them once and for all that YOU DONT FUCK WITH JEWS! and that is the only way to ensure piece and stability in the region. We had to do it in 48, 67, 73, 82 and now again, they never learn.. but The Israeli Army is much stronger now, but the government is much weaker...they're waiting for missiles in Tel-a-viv and Jerusalem to start fighting as they should in a WAR. GO ZAHAL!

I hope they don't run out of virgins for you when it's your time.

I believe that the real power behind the present crisis is not only Iran & Syria but Russia as I think they are fuelling this crisis secretly for their own sinister aims, evidence of this being the massive secret military sales of high tech Russian weaponry to Iran, Syria and possibly Hezbollah over recent months, if the rumours coming from opposition sources in Russia about Russian Airborne Forces being put on alert are true, I believe that America & Britain which are the only 2 powers with the military capacity & guts should also put their forces on standby for deployment to protect Israel from possible Iranian/Syrian/Russian aggression.

and its a good thing Barak and Peres missed their chance to give away the Golan to the big peacemaker himself - haffez assad

Are you aware of the fact that there are a few thousand Lebanese in prisons in Syria? Most of them held without charges? This is unlike Lebanese in Israel, who are convicted terrorists, let's take as an example the story of Samir Kuntar, the first Lebanese prisoner. Samir Kuntar and 3 other Lebanese took a rubber boat from Lebanon to Nahariya, they stormed a house and took a father and a 4 year old girl to the beach, they shot the father, and by then the army had came and surrounded them, but before they surrended Kuntar took the 4 years old girl, threw her on a rock and then struck her head with his rifle's buttstock. Is this guy worth dying over? That is your national hero? Certianly says alot about you.

lmao funny :)

You must be an old man suffering from dementia who has lost touch with the realities of life. I suggest you keep you mouth shut

Your so happy to have war huh? You said no peace treaty, and now you are in glee. FU

It's long overdue now for somebody to hit Iran very hard as this state has been backing terrorists of all kinds since 1979. I remember an article a few years back saying that the IRA al;ways recieved a warm welcome in Iran and indeed have streets named after IRA terrorists, the semtex that murdered over 3000 British citizens came from Iran, also Iran is currently in the process of providing the roadside bombs that are killing large number of British troops in Southern Iraq, this terror regime has the blood of thousands of Israelis, British and American troops & civilians on its hands, it's high time for a joint US/British/Israeli strike to take out these Mullahs of hate.

How could you Islamists possibly believe that G-d would provide you with "virgins" in Heaven. I mean, how gullible can you be???? Sex in Heaven, I think not, TURN ON YOUR THINKING CAP, I mean, think about it, can't you think for yourself. A HOLY G-D is going to give you dozens of virgins in Heaven, because you are Martyr by destroying his CHOSEN PEOPLE? You guys need to turn on your brains for a little while.

Robert, who are you to speak for the civilized world? (1) England created this mess when it carved up the Middle East and Arabia in its image with little regard for sectarian rivalries. (2) Your source is anything but independent. (3) The analogy is more like what you guys had to deal with during WWII rather than what you had to deal with with Northern Ireland. (4) Europe lost all credibility in my mind when it took an AMERICAN intervention to stop genocide in your own backyard of the Balkans. (5) See #4. (6) See #4 again, because it's really important. (7) Ahhh, lucky seven. Maybe not so lucky to you, because Islamofascism is at your doorstep just as Eurofascism was 70 years ago. Will you be able to confront in time or will it require another AMERICAN intervention to save your hides? Judging by #4, I'm guessing the latter. Israel is doing what it has to do -- protect itself. You don't understand that? Tough noogies.

we didn't hear from you when the soldiers were kidnapped and missiles were fired on Sderot Hypocrit a####ole

you know Mohammad, Im gonna assume that you have human blood coursing through your veins...with that assumption, im gonna guess that despite your public rhetoric and the regretabble public stance of many palestinians and arabs of the region you know deep in your heart that Israelis just want to live in peace and go about their business...you know this, you know you are the agressor but also just admit that the reason this is all happening is because your hate for Jews is stronger than logic...you look at us, and you hate what we have accomplished, and therefore the Palestinians elect Hamas and set themselves 20 years back the reality is, Mohammad, you hate Jews...but you live in modern world of logic and reason so you have to say "Israel is a war maker" so the public does not see what you really are

Your HERO army did atrocities in Palestine and Lebanon that you cannot even start to talk about Kuntar. Anyway, he was wrong, your army was wrong. Either both sides have prisoners, or none. You army is so bloodstained that if we count bodies, you'll be embarassed. go and think.

The Allied force should be US/British/Israel/France/Germany but the French and Germans are always playing chicken

Here is my peace plan: Take the power from men, who are always looking for an argument or a fight, and give this power to true homosexual muslim females. Instead of making war, we promise we will institute universal love for ever. After all, if the choice is to go out to break things and kill people, or stay home and lick each other to death, well, I think the coice is obvious.

I think Iran deserves the Noble Prize if they supply the resistance roadside bombs to kill UK soldiers in Iraq. They are occupiers and that is exactly what they deserve. Shame on Iran if they do not help the resistance!

I have a little message for you in the # 41on next adress. Go there ,please. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3276008,00.html

Iran, Siria, Hezbollah and hamas might compete for it..

PROMOTE JEWISH BIRTHS. ENCOURAGE JEWISH MIGRATION TO GAZA AND THE WEST BANK. GIVE A TEN YEAR TAX BREAK TO JEWS MOVING OR LIVING THERE. THE pals MORALLY & EHTICALLY DEGRADE US TO THE EXTENT THAT ISRAEL WILL DEVOLVE INTO A MORAL DECLINE AND BECOME A THIRD WORLD NATION. KICK THEM OUT. THEY WILL NEVER BE CIVILIZED, NOR GIVE US PEACE. AND THE COST OF CONFLICT INCREASES OUR NATIONAL ECONOMIC COSTS AND PREVENT WIDE SPREAD PROSPERITY.

Russia will support Iran as they move into Israel, USA will support Israel beating back Russia, China will move in and once again get beat back by the American and Israel, finally all nations will decend on Israel at once.

17The burden against Damascus. "Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap. 2 *The cities of Aroer are forsaken; They will be for flocks Which lie down, and no one will make them afraid. 3 The fortress also will cease from Ephraim, The kingdom from Damascus, And the remnant of Syria; They will be as the glory of the children of Israel," Says the Lord of hosts. 4 "In that day it shall come to pass That the glory of Jacob will wane, And the fatness of his flesh grow lean. 5 It shall be as when the harvester gathers the grain, And reaps the heads with his arm; It shall be as he who gathers heads of grain In the Valley of Rephaim. 6 Yet gleaning grapes will be left in it, Like the shaking of an olive tree, Two or three olives at the top of the uppermost bough, Four or five in its most fruitful branches," Says the Lord God of Israel.
