31. Who needs who?
Nick ,   London, England   (08.04.06)
When Egypt was bombed in April who was it that sent ambulances over the border to help them. Do we need Egypt? no! but they can benefit from Israel in many ways if they just shut up and stay out of our business. It really annoys me how these countries have to poke their nose in.

33. Prior to 1967 War EGYPT ORDERED INTERNATIONAL Force to LEAVE
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (08.04.06)
SINAI. After the withdrawal, the Voice of the Arabs radio proclaimed on May 18, 1967: "As of today there no longer exists an international emergency force to protect Israel...The sole method we shall apply against Israel is Total War, which will result in the extermination of Zionist existence." Global jihadists - Iran's proxy, Hizbullah's evil goal is the murder of every Jew. On October 22, 2002, Nasrallah told Lebanon's Daily Star: "If they (Jews) all gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide." The purpose of the PLO as enshrined in its charter is the destruction of Israel. PLO terrorists were treasonously implanted into Israel through Oslo peace accords. The Hamas Charter states: "Israel, by virtue of its being Jewish and of having a Jewish population, defies Islam and the Muslims... Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it..." Murderous Iran states repeatedly they intend to wipe Israel off the map - Iran is dangerously close in achieving nuclear capability to execute their genocidal goal. Hamas and Hizbullah proxies fight Iran's war against Israel and all humanity - a global jihad with its ultimate goal the entire world subjugated under Islamic rulers - Israel's fight for freedom and human rights is a fight for freedom and human rights for all nations.
34. I wonder if it dawned on them that...
Da dude   (08.04.06)
If they do this, they basically will be immediately cut off from all US aid, training, and investment. And theres a good chance that many countries will sanction or boycott Egypt?
35. Katuyshas from the South
David E ,   NJ USA   (08.04.06)
What is going to happen when Egypt allows Kytushas going into Gaza? He needs them to cooperate. Ohlmert is nuts! Peretz is an imbecile. No matter how big a buffer zone he gets in Lebanon, they can still launch missiles. He has to stop stirring up these jackasses. Suppose he has killed 500 Hezbollah. I don't doubt that. All he is going to do is get more rockets dumped on Israel. Now missilesmight start flying from Iraq with Sadr. Who knows? Ohlmert is an idiot. Bush is an idiot. Now he is bombing Christian areas of Lebanon! Doesn't this moron realize how much Israel's support in Congress depends on Christians and not Jews.
36. All Talk
Rodger ,   Balad, Iraq   (08.04.06)
It's just more bluster
37. Egypt
Johnson ,   USA   (08.04.06)
It the "moderate" middle eastern countries would clean their own backyards. This type of crap would not happen.
38. Scrap all USA aid today to egypt too!
Concerned ,   American   (08.04.06)
39. Scrap the agreement so we can go on
Arie   (08.04.06)
The "agreement" between Israel and Egypt has always ben cold at best. So let's see who has benefited most from it: The Egyptian economy,which is wholly dependant on tourism has flourished with the tens ofthousands Israelis that visit every year The israeli government, for the stupid reason of appeasing the egyptian dictatorship,has given egyptian gas companies priority over even our own in drilling and selling.That would now stop! The Suez Canal is flourishing because of peace between the States, an iteem that enefits ONLY egypt We coud continue if you wish!
40. The tragedy of Egypt
Arn ,   Tel-Aviv   (08.04.06)
What a shame that Egypt - a country with such a profound historical heritage - a heritage that really defined our universe, should be reduced -intellectually, spiritually and morally to the size of a couple of grains on a forgotten anthill. What rankles these Egyptian so-called intellectuals is that they have nothing to offer anyone anymore. Is hating Jews and Israel the only thing that can give significance to their lives?They have reduced their country to a pitiful caricature. Egypt use to lead the world in every way. Now they let a third-rate ranting demagogue Iranian puppet lead them by the nose. What really hurts is that all that is left of Egypt is its name and some statues.
41. Libyan hero, libyan zero
Raphael ,   Paris   (08.04.06)
The only way Libyans know to fight the Jews is the pogrom: hundreds lost their lives in Tripoli and Benghazi in 1946, at hands of bloodthirsty sadistic racist crowds. Kaddhafi, the rat who roars like a lion, never dared to face Israel.
42. To 27
Da dude   (08.04.06)
You aren't very clever There are many differences between a campaign agaisnt Egypt and one agaisnt Lebanon. Primarily is that it's very easy to guage how badly we will thrash Egypt. The fact is that the Egyptian airforce is no match for the IAF and the fact is that how exactly will Egypt invade Israel? You seem to have forgetten that by the peace agreement the Egyptian forces are not allowed into the sinai. The fact is that the Sinai is vast and VERY FLAT and OPEN desert. It would take Egypt quite some time to first even mobilise and then to cross the entirety of the sinai. Considering that the Sinai is about 2.5 times the size of Israel it would take Egyptian tank forces atleast 10 hours to cross the entirety of the Sinai. Which would pretty much leave them open to IAF bombardment from the air. And while it's for HIzb'allah to hide it's true casualty figures (400+), Egypt can't, smoldering tanks aren't really easy to hide. And as stated previously any tank, airplane, helicopter, US trained officer, etc. will not be replaced. They will have to fight and win with what they've got. Also remember that Israel hasn't forgotten when the Egyptian 3rd army threatened to move into the sinai. Israel has weapons ready to penerate the tunnels under the Suez basically cutting the Sinai off from the rest of Egypt. So Egyptian troops can be quite easily trapped in the Sinai. And DON'T FORGET, THE ASWAN DAM IS FAIR GAME.
43. to no. 27 - Libyan Guy
marc ,   london   (08.04.06)
First of all - learn to spell I-S-R-A-E-L.....this country will never disappear, so get used to it. Secondly, you should distinguish between rat-catching (ie looking for terrorists who are hiding in holes), and war between nations. If Syria, Iran, Eqypt, Jordan want to try and take on Israel....good luck to them!!! They won't stand a chance! An army or air force against the IDF or IAF...forget it - no contest!!! And don't forget, if Israel wasn't so humane and respectful of human life, she would have just bombed everything in sight in Lebanon, regardless of casualties....this is, after all, war!!! Instead, the IDF are taking casualties by trying to defeat these scum Hizbollah in their own backyard, which is never an easy thing to achieve. BUT the IDF will finish job and if the rest of the region wants peace, they will let Israel do what is neccessary so that they may all live peacefully within their own borders... And if not....if the other countries in the region really don't want peace - well, let's all hope that the IDF / IAF can defeat all of them reasonably quickly by conventional means......
44. #30 response
RO ,   Modiin, Israel   (08.04.06)
All saber rattling aside #30 has the best idea of all. If Egyptians could vote for real - he's the one to vote for!
45. to # 28 and # 32
Levi   (08.04.06)
Yes you are right. in the Yom Kippur war we were victorious, but sadly we will lose this one against our superior enemy;Hizbullah
46. #27 One of these days the west will quit worring about
Getting Pissed ,   In America   (08.04.06)
protecting the cilivians that the terrorsist like Huzzbullashit hide behind, because we are getting the Idea you are all out to get us and we will start fighting like you do. Ask Japan how well our technology worked in their war against us. Two city in two days. If you jackasses keep it up, your sand will be turned to glass with you in it. We love peace but you seem to love death much more. Read the Bible and you will see the hints of what your fate will be. A/H
47. so Egyptian judges support terrorism?
Canada   (08.04.06)
48. We would have finished off the Hizbollah weeks ago
Rachel   (08.04.06)
if we hadn't been so humane. Something you Arabs don't have a clue about. Arab 'humanity' consists of shooting from behind the backs of your children and your women (who you treat only a bit better than animals anyway). Jews do their best to stay alive without taking innocent lives. Arabs purposely seek out innocent lives of Jews and their own people and anyone else who gets in their way.
49. Great idea
Natan ,   USA   (08.04.06)
Great!!! But only if we can resume from the point it ended in 1973. Have the 3rd army surrounded, and this time really finish them. and continue towards Cairo and this time , please , don't stop us..
50. Here is a great quote from egypt to ponder...
The rest of the ,   World   (08.04.06)
?The Egyptian judges called upon judges from around the world to do their duty and aid in imposing values of justice and equality between human beings" And we the world say to you "act like human being and we won't have this problem You all bring it upon yourselves!" We would love to welcome you to 21 century...
51. Way to go Sheikh yer Bu'Tay , Dar al-Harb!!! LOL
Supporter ,   New York City   (08.04.06)
52. No. 43
David ,   NJ-USA   (08.04.06)
War should be applied when diplomacy fails and only then! I agree you can't reason with Nasrallah! But that doesn't mean that Israel had to go to war here. There have been far more deadly attacks on Israel then Nasrallah's. Missiles. Look, someone 2000 miles away can shoot missiles at you. Nothing you can really do about it.
53. #30 No,Sheikh.I think you are right and it is impossible
keren ,   sao paulo   (08.04.06)
a more peaceful idea than this one. Let's pray for this to be accomplished as soon as possible,and instead of international community ,and arabs,keep talking about war,let hope that they start talking about peace. I loved your post!Great!!!
54. Really Bad Judgement
Brian ,   Grand Rapids, USA   (08.04.06)
Egypt would be incredibly foolish to dissolve the peace treaty with Israel over this. The treaty has benefited Egypt, and there is no good reason for scrapping it, other than the emotions of the moment. It will be sad to see Egypt throwing away their future for nothing.
55. Scrap the Peace - and watch your nation be destroyed
(08.04.06)
56. #1, that was exactly my question.
AK   (08.04.06)
57. Disingenuous Judges
Paul ,   Austin, TX   (08.04.06)
Where was the Egyptian Judiciary during Jordan’s “Black September”. Where were they during Assad’s Hama cleansing? Thousands, or tens of thousands, of Muslims perished there, at the hands of Muslims. Is the Egyptian judiciary doing anything about Darfur? Is that death toll at all significant, or is it just water under the bridge for how, in reality, Muslims treat Muslims when it is ethnically expedient? Let the Egyptian judiciary censure Hezbollah to quit its genocidal campaign against Israel, and we can easily predict how Hezbollah would respond. Too bad the judgement of the Egyptian judiciary is too clouded by conceit to know who their good neighbors can be.
58. God cursed egypt a long time ago, they don't matter at all
(08.04.06)
59. #8, So, that's how the 'Moderate' Muslim sounds like.
AK   (08.04.06)
Sorry, Tero, but the Fascists, without quotation marks, are only on one side -- the Muslim side and that of their subservient Leftist dhimmis.
60. Supreme Idiottoah Carter's christian plan to destroy Israel
Yakov ,   Ashkelon   (08.04.06)
Carter manipulated an old, sick and weak Begin into giving back Sinai to Egypt. This was part of the Islamic plan to destroy Israel in stages by taking away its territory until it was so small that its borders are indefensible. Carter again this weak attacked Israel and placed blame on Israel for Hizbollah's jihad against Jews. Egypt signed a paper to get the Sinai back with the full intention of a future attack when we are weak and vulnerable. They still have every intention of destroying Israel.
