1. IDF Example
(07.28.06)
An example of Israel's "brave" ground troops http://sfgate.com/c/pictures/2006/07/21/ba_aptopix_mideast_i.jpg
2. Why only 3 terrorists killed?

3. 3 terrorists killed
BF ,   NY, USA   (07.28.06)
Just 3? Way too small number...
4. Just "GunMen"?!?!?!?
(07.28.06)
5. GOOD JOB!! I'm proud of you brave soldiers!!
Proud Grandpa ,   www.KingArik.net   (07.28.06)
Yet it would be a mistake to keep fighting on the ground and send more troops and divisions to the killing zone. POLITICAL SOLUTION is what needed and NOW. Read this important document about the first Lebanon War to learn how high ambitions to solve the Lebanon threat by force was translated to hundreds of graves of young Israeli soldiers: http://www.israel-chronicles.org/lebanon1982.htm NO MORE DEAD SOLDIERS on the cursed Lebanon soil. Get out now and bring stability to the region by negotiations. This is the only way.
6. #1 Unlike your death cult we are saddned by death
Jew ,   Israel   (07.28.06)
When your people die, you give out candy and celebrate. While we do yes cry, have true human emotions in response to the death of our loved ones.
7. be carefull
Doctor ,   USA   (07.28.06)
Army chief undergoes tests in hospital IDF Chief of Staff Dan Halutz underwent a series of tests at the Sourasky Medical Center after suffering from abdominal pains. Halutz was released to his home after the tests showed no unusual findings.... I think it is a GASTRIC ULCER ( du to stress), he has to stop fighting, take some PPI and rest for eternity.... war is not the solution
8. Not Only 3 Terrorists
S Judah ,   London   (07.28.06)
You have to follow the reports properly. Even that is difficult. Over 200 has been reported as a general figure. The Terrorist report almost nothing except Civilians. Over 20-40 in the battle that claimed 8 of our boys. 5 terrorists reported killed this morning. Are these an additional 3 or what? And if the rocket launchers and supply/storage places are being hit, who knows how many more?
9. the previous posting
David ,   San Francisco   (07.28.06)
I laugh at how pathetic is the previous response (IDF Example) Even the most heinous of terrorists would not criticize tears at a funeral as weakness. You are such a small, small person. I laugh at you.
10. Bravo, IDF
Ana ,   Spain   (07.28.06)
So three more terrorists down. I love you. I have read you are doing a great job. I am praying for you all and for Israel. Thank you so much!

keren ,   sao paulo   (07.28.06)
If your intention was to pointing out something negative,I have to tell you that you got the opposite ,and showed us only Beauty. That's why I love my People. We have Soul ,and Love in our hearts. You lack it.Very sad for you.Very sad.
15. Why isn't Israel leveling Bint Jbeil?
Besalel ,   Kew Gardens, NY   (07.28.06)
No more ground troops until there is nothing in Bint Jbeil taller than 6 inches off the ground. Anyone still in that town is either Hezbollah or a Hezbollah supporter/shield. Better 10,000 of them eliminated than 1 of ours gets hurt. They wanted War, the IDF should bring it.
16. #1 "brave" ???
john wolfson ,   hadera, Israel   (07.28.06)
When our boys die, we cry, then we stand up and fight with even more determination then before. May GOD bless our soldiers, and may GOD bless Israel, and since we are human and we have feelings, we are very sorry for the innocent Lebanese that died.
17. Stop lie !!!! people of Israel know the truths
palestine.my.love ,   palestine   (07.28.06)
18. The IDF Today is not the same
Marcel ,   Florida   (07.28.06)
I believe that for years the leadership has been weakening the army. The IDF is highly technological and ultra-modern in its weaponry but its leaders depress the morale of the troops and suppress their motivation. It began with Oslo -- creating the illusion of peace and turning our worst enemies, whose goal is to destroy us, into so-called partners for peace. And all this was done while blinding our people, especially our soldiers, to the reality of the evil intentions of these "peace partners." When an army created to protect the land and people of Israel is inculcated with distorted codes of morality which suddenly dictate that foes are friends, the result is confusion -- the illusion of peaceful borders and an inability to recognize the enemy. The tragic events on the Gaza border and the endless barrage of deadly rockets on the North are direct results of that confusion and illusions of peace. There can be no greater distortion of Jewish values and confusion planted into the hearts of our soldiers than when disengagement -- meaning the uprooting of Jewish communities and synagogues -- becomes Zionist policy. This situation has created a mentality that weakens motivation and alertness, which are so essential in preventing disastrous mistakes like those which preceded the Hamas and Hizbullah infiltration, kidnapping and murder of soldiers. All the recent humiliating military failures stem from the uncertain policymaking of Israeli leaders in recent years. Specifically, there are three policy concepts -- illusions, really -- that express a basic misunderstanding of the responsibilities of a government surrounded by enemies bent on its destruction. rabbi waldman
19. IDF
Benjamin Fleischmann ,   New York, New York   (07.28.06)
Please IDF en Israeli Media, stop with this propaganda. Either you invade Lebanon with 30000 men or make peace with Hizbullah, because I don't buy this anymore. ''IDF killed 10 terrorists'' Come On ! Benjamin Fleischmann Veteran of '67 War en the Yom Kippur War.
20. After This Whole Thing Winds Down One Thing Is Certain
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (07.28.06)
Israel will have decimated Hezbollah infrastructure, permanently forcing nASSrallah to live in a hole, killed countless terrorists and permanently pushed the terrorists away from the Israeli border...the "Arab Street" will declare victory....just like Arab radio broadcasts during the 6 Day War as Israel conquered Jerusalem, Golan, and Synai.
21. #1, it's clear you've never been in combat
Your Uncle Bob ,   Washington, DC   (07.28.06)
..because if you had been, you would understand how any human being can be brought to tears by the horrors of what you see in combat. Your flippant remark clearly indicates your ignorance, lack of understanding and from what I've seen, people like you are the first to run and hide in combat. The big talkers and macho men are the first to lose it and break down.
22. Ana from Spain (Thanks!!!)
David ,   Tel Aviv   (07.28.06)
Ana, I'm surprised and happy that someone from Spain respects our right to defend ourselves - the Jewish and Arab citizens of Israel. I'm not being sarcastic - thanks, it means a lot!
23. #15 You can thank Kadima/Labor for that
(07.28.06)
They wont move forward since it will create "more backlash" against Israel. Totally insane since the world will always hate us whether we are good or bad, they only like us when we are dead, always remember that.
24. #8
Ehud ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (07.28.06)
Stop counting how many of our ennemy are dead to hide our loss. Be realistic we are loosing the war, and we should stop this stupid fight.
25. #1 IDF vs. Hezbollah men
Stefano   (07.28.06)
IDF: real men. 1) Work hard 2) fight hard 3) love hard. Hezbollah men: degraded life form. 1) fear music 2) hide among women and U.N. when fighting 3) mutilate their own daughters' sexual organs and kill them if they 'shame' family
26. #15 Because they are cowards :)
Sami ,   Kuwait   (07.28.06)
27. Human Rights
fadi ,   My Country Lebanon   (07.28.06)
Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world, Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law, The Human rights chart starts like that, we Lebanese and Palestinian want to live in peace in our mutual countries, and we do have the right to defend our land, families and communities from invadors.... How dare you treat us as terrorist, go to the dictionary and look after terrorist and terrorism and you'll find out that in the twentiest century terrorism is represented by nazi, Zionist (not jews), Bush gang (not US citizen)and lately Al qaeda (Ben Laden and co.), I'm proud being Lebanese, proud of our Lebanese resistance (Hizbollah) and proud having someone called Sayed Hassan Nasrallah. Just for your info, if you succeed one day eliminating Sayed Hassan, we are all Hassan NAsrallah, we are millions, he's in our blood, skin and faith.
28. Lies Lies and More Lies
Ali ,   Beirut   (07.28.06)
The Israeli attacking army is craving for any victory to boost his "very low" morales..to an extent that he is creating lies..lies...and more lies. first they say they occupied B.J...then they deined. They said that the Helicopter crashed by accident, they they admitted that HZB shot it. Now they say they killed 10 HZB heroes...I DOUBT THAT!! By the way...WHY is there so much censorship in "democractic" israel?? Not to Shock the public with how much damage you are getting?
29. I AGREE!
Ali ,   Beirut   (07.28.06)
It seems every new Israeli PM will try to eradicate HZB and fails.. These irresponsible adventures are costing the Israeli army losses and DEFEAT. The israelis should accept the fact that they are not free anymore to consider Lebanon as their training feild. There is a new protector to the Lebanese soil that will CUT any foreign leg that dares to step in
30. Brave? or Grave?
Ali ,   Beirut   (07.28.06)
If the Israeli army is "so" brave, why they decided to stop the ground operation though we all know that it is the only possible way to defeat HZB? The truth is that the Israeli army is so coward and weak that they decided to hide in their planes and shoot from above....maybe HZB might shoot some planes??? who knows?? if so, israel will decided to limit its operations to ....computer simulators....hehehehehe by the way, I loved the voice of the israeli soldiers screaming and crying!! so brave!!
