gerd schulz ,   germany   (07.31.06)
Senior officer: 150 rockets launched at Israel from Qana Chief of the IDF Operations Branch, Maj. Gen. Gadi Eisnkot, said in a press conference that "the IDF operated against terrorist target in Qana. The village has been used, since the onset of the confrontation, as a refuge for terror and a launch site for some 150 rockets at Israel, in some 30 volleys." According to the general: "Since the first day of the fighting, we warned residents of southern Lebanon that they should distance themselves from terror operatives and launch sites, for their own safety. We dropped pamphlets, announced it in the media and operated in a gradual manner and, unfortunately, Saturday night civilians were killed, whom no one had the intention of attacking."

4. stop war
yacovic ,   bulgaria   (07.31.06)
there is a problem in the vocabulary used for "terrorism". what we saw yesterday is pure terrorism of the state of israel. hezbullah on the other side has kidnapped 2 soldiers from israeli military base...There are no need for the security council, like a french proverb said: "La raison du plus fort est toujours la meilleur"... the USA is blocking a cease-fire to let israel do more Terrorist operations on lebanese civilians... until now few members of hizbullah are killed, and israel could'nt enter any village!!!! so Stop this war and negociate.

9. Arab knesset members heckling Peretz's praise of soldiers
Jenny   (07.31.06)
They are laughing now but will be crying when they are under the government of the Palestinian Authority. Traiterous people of any race/nationality should be banned from Knesset and from Israel proper.

13. Israel will win in the end
peter tan ,   malaysia   (07.31.06)
Praying for Israel because God loves Israel. He will watch over His land and people.
14. Israeli suicide w/ Arab MK traitors
jw ,   NY, USA   (07.31.06)
How many ways can israel commit suicide? Start with the absurdity of allowing Arab ministers, who are terrorist apologists, to safely serve as traitors in the Kenneset ...the world will still label israel an apartheid state no matter how many Arabs it caters to.
15. Arab Knesset members
Sandra ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (07.31.06)
It's time the Arab Knesset members were permanently barred from the Knesset. They are nothing but traitors. A "fifth" column in our midst. We have enough enemies, and to have them insulting the Defence Minister et at., is beyond comprehension.
16. no accusations from sarsur when nazareth children killed
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (07.31.06)
he cares more about lebanese children than israeli children. hypocrite and traitor.
17. arabs have no right to sit in the knesset
jason white ,   afula,israel   (07.31.06)
they and anyone who did not serve in the I.D.F. should sit in the knesset.
18. So hundreds of dead civilians is a just a pile of mistakes?
Proud Grandpa ,   www.KingArik.net   (07.31.06)
19. Knesset
alman ,   jerusalem, Israel   (07.31.06)
Peretz spoke to a handful of elected representatives. Some of them shouting and yelling, and taking part in a democracy not known to any country in the Middle East.. Where was everyone else? Too busy? For shame!!! 1
20. Stop apologizing
Allan   (07.31.06)
Evidence is being uncovered that the Qana incident was staged by Hezbollah. Other than the many hour delay between the alleged bomb and the building collapse. The ceiling of the building is intact indicating that the explosion was from witihin the building. The bodies were already in rigor mortis and ashen color indicating they were dead for days.
21. For once Peretz needs all our support
nul ,   Israel   (07.31.06)
As I've already mentioned in some talkback a few days ago never thought my friends and I would wholeheartedly support Amir Peretz. But we do now. Good for him!
22. SUPPORT FOR PERETZ!
Irish Guy 2112 ,   Tel-Aviv   (07.31.06)
While in econo-political terms, you will not find someone more opposed to Peretz's ideology, I am a huge admirer of his actions in the last few weeks. I feared for Israel with someone of his limited experience, and with such leftist opinions, at the helm of the Defense Dept. However, I must congratulate him - and Olmert - on calling Nasrallah's bluff over Israel's determination to show a resolute self-defense. Support Amir!!
23. SUPPORTING YOUR LEADERS
Irish Guy 2112 ,   Tel-Aviv   (07.31.06)
I have just sent an email to Amir Peretz, conveying my admiration, and my pleas for his moral leadership to continue. I will not paste it here - as to influence the anti-Israel wretches to contact him - but it can be easily found on the Knesset website. Do not underestimate what positive personal contact will do for Mr Peretz, etc. They are, after all, humans, in need of encouragement in these dark times.
24. peretz the great person
m ,   lebanon   (07.31.06)
we wl win the world if we have a person like u,who encourrage and support his army,mr.peretz ur the braveman for the land of glory.
25. Hizbollah
LouAnn ,   Bloomington USA   (07.31.06)
Hezbollah are double cowards: First they fire faceless rockets at civilian targets into Israel hoping to cause random deaths and disrupt whatever life remains. Second, they fire them from behind the skirts and playpens of their women and children. Glorious warriors, indeed! Hezbollah is fully responsible for the need for an Israeli strike on their rocket launchers, wherever they are. The Israeli army took the unprecedented step of warning the civilian population to leave the area, as they were in danger, yet they stayed. Hezbollah has suceeded only in showing us a vision of the Moslem plan of their hell for the rest of us as well. Israel must defeat them.
26. 'No order to shoot civilians', unlike Hezbullah
Talula ,   Israel   (07.31.06)
who aim straight for them.
27. Israel has lost the last shred of humanity!
Ari   (07.31.06)
It is shocking how many Jews are so blinded by hatred and how I see them justify the killing of civilians in order what they think will be a victory over terror group like Hizbollah! IMO what the IDF is doing today makes them even worse than the terrorists them selves! How shameful!
28. Children are angels
voice of peace ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.31.06)
All I have to say to Mr. Peretz: do you have children or grand children? if yes, look at the pictures of the bombed children, killed by your orders and remember that every time you see children. ask god for forgiveness, it is not too late.
29. 17 - I guess Natan Shransky doesn't qualify then
(07.31.06)
He didn't serve in the IDF so he, and those like him, should be not allowed. Right?
30. #12. you are right! lol! nevertheless...
