We at the IDF value life they don't! We need to invade all of Lebanon and we cannot do that without land forces! Our land forces fear death while the enemy do not and you cannot win this war unless you do not fear death! It's hard to understand logic but that is a fact! We also cannot achieve anything by aerial bombardment, so let's just call it even and try to make peace with Lebanon before Hizbollah take full power from the current Lebanese government who is somewhat less violent! We need to do this now before its too late! We already have two Iran's (Iran + Iraq) and if we let this war go on for longer we'll have a third Iran up north! Shalom

Uneven match! Men against boys; and its far worse when young boys know they are fair game and no match for Hezbollah. Thats why IDF would rather fire innocent civilians from the air,who do not shoot back. Lets all end this killing now...

Is Hezbollah still giving out sweets. When Jews die, like they did on the first day of this war? Something is telling me that looking back many Lebanese, especially shia, think those sweets tasted bitter.

A peace agreement must run through Syria first. You'll have to give up something, but i think Hezbollah and other such groups are here to stay unfortunately. There hatred for Israel and the US is too great and we give it to much fuel with our backwards foreign policy.

what about the trophee system in merkava tanks. With that device Israel will win faster

Please talk to your government to stop the war now, this is a war where everyone looses and the biggest casualties are the innocent civilians. Stop it now before it is too late. Armageddon is not in Israelis best interest, it is the beginning of the end.

i wanna ax the isralelies now really really what are you doing? you say you want to destroy hizbullah while it's getting stronger stop the fire and the lebanese resistance will stop it too

destroy the hezbollah bastards. nuke'em damn it and get over with it !

hezbollah want the shabaa farms & the prisonners freed as a condition to drop arms. israel miscalculated evything, they thought they can get rid of the guerilla group & keep the land. Shabaa + leb prisonners =israeli prisonners+ disarmed hezbollah. PEACE

Israel has complied. I has withdrawn from terrirories. The language used in the resolution intentionally did not use the words "the territories" although rejected drafts did. There is no illegal occupation. Face the facts and get over it.

To all the terrorist Arabs, You can start all the wars, but in the end Israel finishes them as you cry like little girls for the world to help you. You will find IDF merkavas rolling over your bones very soon.

is there a good reason why israel still exists?

How many people have to die so both sides would understand that fighting is not the answer

How many Israeli soldiers are in Lebanon? How many have been killed? Get a grip on the hysterical headlines, YNET.

YOU ARE LOOSERS. YOUR GOVERMENT IS STUPID FOOL. YOU ARE LOOSING YOU WON & YOU WILL WIN THE BAD REPUTATION LOOOOOOOOOSERS SAVE YOUR SOLDIER'S LIFE AND GET OUT OF LEBANON!

You cannot bomb into submission an ideology. You must crush a people with overwhelming force and then help them rebuild. Remember Germany and Japan?

its just waste to fight how many people are we going to kill arabs wont end

WHO FIGHT AND DIE FOR ISRAEL. THE JEWS OF THE WORLD SALUTE YOU. YOU HAVE OUR EVERLASTING SUPPORT AND DEEPEST LOVE FOREVER.

probably not - at least not in its present form.

How many more young men are going to die for your stupid ideas Olmert? Your hidden agenda maybe come from Bush "the idiot lord war" who is luckily born as an oil tycoon son.

The IDF gotten so soft flexing their muscles against palestinian kids armed to the teeth with stones !!!

Israel made a mistake, they should have made a lightning attack, and today no more katyushas...

No more of this kidnapping and then swap prisoners thing...making this a mockery...enough is enough...Hope these soldiers could finish off His Ball soon.....

i'm wondereing everyday i hear that we killed 200 hezbollah fighters and we hear from hezbollah that he killed 35 who we have to believe the best solution in my opinion is to stop the war now and find another solution apart from using power.

Do what you have to do, and do not forget to pray for help. Learn something good from the americans: "In Gd we trust" and have gratitude to the US for supporting us against all the other nations of the world. Pray for miracles so that the job can get done without having to lose any more of our precious boys or suffer any more attacks on the souuth and north! With our hearts in the right place we will defeat and overcome evil. With love, and sharing the pain of the victimsand their families : the killed, the wounded, the kidnapped and the displaced.
