Dudu ,   Kfar Sava   (07.18.06)
after they surrender unconditionally.
2. Zion, e-mail me...Iwill come
Keith ,   NY,USA   (07.18.06)
Some people talk their stuff in the comforts of their home, but I back it with action. Isreal, call me up to help and i am on a plane. E-mail me in what to do.
3. Less talk, more bombs, thanks in advance.

4. Truth or Disinformation?
German Observer ,   Nord Deutschland   (07.18.06)
Ya'alon, we need your assessment of the situation.
5. YEAH RIGHT!!
KS ,   Lebanon   (07.18.06)
Anyone who believes that video is out of their mind!! Hizbullah don't have posts like that!! hahahahah!!! Hizbullah is not an organized army!! People can't be that stupid!!

7. Rockets
rich ,   USA   (07.18.06)
I suspect the long range rockets are positioned well in the north of Lebanon, not anywhere near the border. I also suspect these are chemical/biological in nature - Saddam's WMD stockpile which was moved to Syria before the US came in. These vermin need to be crushed NOW. If you listen to the UN and let them act for you, you will grow weaker and eventually be slaughtered.
8. Act Fast!!!
Chris ,   Washington, DC   (07.18.06)
Israel, The article is correct. The diplomatic clock is ticking fast. Decimate hizbollah as quickly as possible. Leaving 50% of hizbollah intact would be a grave mistake. As Kennedy once said, and I am paraphrasing, in Chinese the word for crisis is the symbols for danger and opportunity. Well this crisis should also be seen as an opportunity, an opporunity to set hizbollah back as far as possible.
9. wishfull thinking
Ahmad   (07.18.06)
yes, it is true that the ability of Hizbullah was curtailed...just look at Naharya, Haifa, and Safad few minutes ago, every one is sitting at an out door cafe having ice tea and beer!!? LOL
10. So they still have 6000 left?
AK   (07.18.06)
11. you idiots
Jamal Ra3i ,   lebanon   (07.18.06)
U are fighting a ghost. you will loose because you r afraid of dying while we see it as a previlage to die defending our country. moreover you know that sooner or later you will exchange prisoners.
12. The diplomatic clock has began ticking
Dave ,   San Diego, CA   (07.18.06)
And once again Israel will let time run out and end its offensive without striking even one blow against the real target: Syria. What was the sense of buzzing the royal palace a short time ago? If an Israeli rocket hit Daimascus for every rocket fired into Israel, these attacks would have stopped.
13. Too Many Israeli Casualties Looming
Boris Tartikoff ,   NY   (07.18.06)
Let's see, according to the IDf, Hezbollah has fired several hundred missiles at northern Israel and 12 Israelis have been killed by them with dozens wounded. If half of Hezbollah's missile capability has been neutralized, that leaves around 5000 or 6000 missiles left. If, for argument's sake, they have already fired 500 missiles, that means Israel can expect to suffer another 125 -130 dead and hundreds of more wounded. Israel cannot afford to pay this price.
14. Kill Nasrallah, Mashaal

Floyd   (07.18.06)
"every one is sitting at an out door cafe having ice tea and beer!!?" Oh my...and you being a muslim, beer must offend your islamic beliefs and sensibilities. Tell me, how much death and destruction will come about since you have been offended?
16. ahmad
steven ,   usa   (07.18.06)
whats the matter ahmad, do you feel bad because every war your people started israel burried them? my heart gos out to you and your rat faced people who is 10 feet in the ground. AHMAD instead of being on israels side ,you choose the side that is destroying your people and making them have no life. oh well ....cheers
17. big BRAVO to all soldiers in action!
stephane ,   france   (07.18.06)
tsahal does a great job,the jews around the world are very proud of you,keep on fighting till the animals remain far from israel. in france they only talk about the death of civilians in lebanon on the news to "diabolize" us,but thanks god we have ynet and other israeli websites to read the REAL news;and we know that unfortunatly civilians dies in lebanon because hezbollah (as hamas) use their own people as human shields...soldiers,don't pay attention to what antisemits say(or leftist jews),we know the work you're doing there,and once again: we're very proud of you.
18. TO number 5, you are wrong
NS ,   ISRAEL   (07.18.06)
You are wrong, IDF held Stands in south Lebanon.Yes, IDF held Stands inside the borders of lebanon in the vein effort to prevent Terrorist intrusion to Israel. We lost 2 soldiers a month for 18 years. Hizzballa lost 6. After the retreat, 6 years ago, Hizzballa Occupied The Empty IDF Stands. Israel avoided attacking those enemy targets, hoping to keep status-queu. so, Hizzballa do have stands, or, he had Stands...
19. TO AHMAD #9
EDAN ,   NEW YORK USA   (07.18.06)
see the differance between us you take pride in puting feer into the hearts of civilians we dont. we will put this to rest hopefully peacefully. we need to stop talking about the past and start thinking of the future. we need to talk about peace. BUT if hisbulah and hamas do not disarm in the name of jihad then we will more the happily do it for them. why are these thoughts so strong by the way to all you jihadist the time when the islamic empire was at its best and most butifull was when they excepted all types of poeple and allowed them to live in peace in the 14th century please think about it and learn your own history!
20. Boris, check this out
Keith ,   NY,USA   (07.18.06)
Just think if they dont do this, how many will die over the next years. the price is necessary. What they have to do, that they haven;t done in the past, is finish the job. Zion must totally wipe out these unGodly fanatics and go into any and every land to do so. Yes lives will be lost, but don't forget your own history. 39 million american soldiers have died for there right to live since the coseption of our great nation. Why should Israel do any less. Stand with them, through bad as well as good along with your prayers and maybe less live will be lost thet way.
21. #13 The IDF must destroy all rockets.
MARK ,   USA   (07.18.06)
All of Hizballah must be destroyed. We do not do half a job. Full force ahead. Non stop sorties are needed. Carpet bombing is needed.
22. # 20 Keith
Boris Tartikoff ,   NY   (07.18.06)
"39 million american soldiers have died for there right to live since the coseption of our great nation." - Keith Have you achieved this level of delusion by natural means, or have you received some pharmaceutical help?
23. Ahmad #9
Arie   (07.18.06)
People like you are the reason Lebanon is no more
24. Ever notice...
Concerned Observer ,   USA   (07.18.06)
Ever notice how according to the press, there hasnt even been one non civilian casualty in Lebanon? Every so many years, the arabs need to be smacked down. You would think they would get tired of living amongst rubble.
25. to 12
(07.18.06)
If you flatten damascus, the rockets won't stop!! you are so pathetic people. You imagine your arrogance means anything? nope!! stick it .....
26. to no 16
(07.18.06)
Hizbollah is what gives us life, USA, UK, and Israel are the death machines, and the thugry, gangstry masters. We won't give Hizbollah up, period! even if you kill all its members, a new Hizbollah that will follow the same lines will be formed very quickly. Just watch!
27. wake up
sharon ,   trutski   (07.18.06)
it seems that you have a very short memory.. remember 10 years ago , you were crying for cease fire. The great army of israel has killed 3 hizbollah fighters so far. if hizbollah is made of 6 fighters ,then i agree that u destroyed half of its capabilities.
28. Boris
Keith ,   NY,USA   (07.18.06)
You might do some back ground checking before you voice a ungrounded opinion. I am a US History Teacher as well as a non drinker, smoker, and drug user. What do you have to say now?
29. To no 9
(07.18.06)
When you manage to disarm Iraqi resistance, then come and talk about disarming Hamas or Hizbollah. You are much weaker, and much fearful, and cowards than disarming an ant!
30. to 20
(07.18.06)
No matter what you do, it won't work. Justice always wins. Just watch!
