1. WHAT! No Civilians Killed?!!
Ertok   (08.05.06)
Is that because the Hizbananas didnt have time to change into their 'civvies' Interesting to note that its the Lebanese Army now too, one and the same as Hezbollah.
2. It appears that Hizbullah is really fighting!!
Mark   (08.05.06)
Hizbullah has already earned respect from defense analysts as a very efficient infantry army fighting against Israel and America alone.
3. Another Blow for Hezzi and Proud Grand Pa
Lindon Richards ,   Milpitas USA   (08.05.06)
So the IDF strikes again, this time in Tyre and the so called brave Hezzis, have taken another hit. I suppose our self syled Proud Grand Pa, will be coming up shortly with another cheap, pro hezzi, one liner, poorly disguised as concern for the IDF troops. He and the hezzi crowd will get the defeat thst is comoing to them. I for one, am prepared to wait for as long as it takes to bring them down. It may very well take some time, but my wish is that the IDF be allowed to prosecute this war to the fullest extent possible., into the winter inf need be. The fact that up to 7 of the Hezzi men may hve been cut down should go some way in adding to the cost of this war for them. I should also be a bit more obvious to them and ther backers, how expensively stupid it was for Hezbollah to have intiated this devasting and unprovoked war on Isreal.
4. wounded or dead??
john ,   lebanon   (08.05.06)
why is it that always the IDF starts by saying that it has wounded soldiers and after some hours confess that it has half or more from these said wounded dead,r they scared to tell their people the real truth about the real number of dead soldiers and their loss
5. And you thought it was a "Walk N the Park".Pls come again...
Observer   (08.05.06)
6. way to go
fan ,   usa   (08.05.06)
keep up the good work
7. carpet bomb tyre, don't waste IDF lives
alan ,   Egigick   (08.05.06)
use some of those five thousand pound bombs on suspected targets instead of sending in troops
8. Such a tiny country and such brave heroes !
Sharon ,   Israel   (08.05.06)
Such a tiny country, surrounded by numerous blood-thirsty New Nazis Iranian weoponed- and such brave heroes ! We love you and adore you brave young Israeli men! God abide with you!
9. Anti aircraft missiles??
Amer - Lebanese ,   Beirut - Lebanon   (08.05.06)
Dear sirs, It would be nice if you got you fact straight... enough disinformation as it is! The Lebanese Army unfortunately does not own anti-aircraft missiles (thanks to the reluctance of western powers to supply it with effectively defensive weaponry). In fact, if you look at the M-113 personnel carrier that the IAF chopper blew up, you'll see that it had a light double-barrelled AA-GUN... good enough to down a WWII Stuka, not an Apache...
10. Thx you Shaytet 13!!
Some1   (08.05.06)
Best Unit in the world!
11. Silly war
Jack ,   France   (08.05.06)
What was the purpose of this war ? I'm really confused. Can anyone explain it for me ? ... duh!!!
12. Stop the war! Bring the boys back home ALIVE AND WELL!!
Proud Grandpa ,   www.KingArik.net   (08.05.06)
STOP THIS FUTILE WAR!!
13. Another soldier is dead. 44 killed soldiers so far. STOP NOW
Proud Grandpa ,   www.KingArik.net   (08.05.06)
In the first Lebanon war we buried 675 soldiers. Only when we get to this number should we wake up from this nightmare and begin to question it? Blood thirst and vengeance are the only reason for this war. It should have been avoided from day 1. NO MORE WAR!
14. change the title : "7 hizbullah gunsman die"
:x   (08.05.06)
that's should be the title !
15. 280 million arabs & 6 millions israeli you do the math
ahmed_elalfy ,   alexandria   (08.05.06)
you do the math .. we have so many soldiers to scryfice thier lifes about 12 million in egypt you do the math for the rest of the arab world .. if it will be 7 for 2 i agree ..
16. HiJack #11
John ,   NZ   (08.05.06)
What would your Chirac do if Germany were to launch missiles into France. Do nothing? Oh, sorry, you are a 10 year old kid, probably you don't understand these things.
17. Buffer till Litani
Chris ,   LA   (08.05.06)
At the rate the IDF is moving there won't be a buffer up to the Litani for weeks...
18. to 3
(08.05.06)
It was all worth it Lindon. People in Lebanon are not willing to bow to USA/Israel. They are not willing to accept your occupation (political or military). If you call your operation success, then you are so pathetic, and you need to read more about Military Operations. Poor you!!
19. I AM AMUSED !!
Lebanese Abroad ,   Asia   (08.05.06)
I am amused by Israely ignorance and stupidity..i am not sure they are so stupid or blind .. Can you see that your loosing..and your govermen keeps lying to you.. Litani river ??? whome are you kdding..25 days and u did not come in more than 2 klm, even these 2 klm are not secured and will be taken back soon..Wake Up...You guys should listen more to Nasralla Rather than your Ignorant PM who engaged you in a WAR while it could have been solved peacfully in 1 hour just to prove that even with no military background he can make it .. and now you see the result..Sharon would have been smarter and traded the soldiers..Military mind is about knowing when to negotiate and when to attack,,Mr.Olmert is still not mature and seems to lack confidence..he started by wanting to crash hizbolla..and backed up now to wanting a buffer zone..but he will back uo more and beg for the rockets to stop raining ..u lost all these lebanese that were pushing for peace..now we are all behind hizbolla Christians and Muslims.. thank you for makin our unity shine.. cheers
20. Lebanese army is for real ?
Hiram Al Masry ,   tel Aviv   (08.05.06)
I wonder in that case where they were and what they were doing while Allah's troops were building up their caches ! Owww ! S.... I forgot ! The Lebanese government did not give the order to disram the militia in spite of previous UN resolution ! Owww....S.... I forgot that Syria occupied Lebanon till a few month ago .... Well, the UN also bears a HEAVY responsability in the sotuation correct ? Ya Saalam !
21. U people r u so funny
Majd ,   Espoo   (08.05.06)
what doe sit take for you israeilis to notice that the rules of the game changed? It is not like when Ehud went to a commondos cruise in beirut anymore, Hizballa have been preparing and waiting for u. Btw all teh cars you saw in baalbek were just a trap to force a commados operation, people , peace is the only way, how many IDF soldiers need 2 die? how many jews mothers need to grief for a lost cause? of course the lebanese army will respong, you expect to take your helicopters as if tyre was ur backyard? those days are over. Talk peace. .. Its time
22. to 8. Sharon
Alex Haley ,   Kansas   (08.05.06)
Sharon i am sure you are talking about Lebanon , the country that is surrounded by blood thirsty people !! or you are blind you do not see the news , you are killing civilians and envading a country claiming that they will pay for Hizbullah , rest assured that you will not live in peace because of your policies and you will never be equal to any civilized nation.
23. Hizbullah Fooling you & you are pounding possibly maquettes
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (08.05.06)
I thint Hizbullah is not only brave but also very clever. IDF and IAF's most of reporting based on bird's eye-view from planes. As just once Nato was reporting their hitting Tanks at the end it was discovered Serbians fooled Nato with their false maquettes of their Tanks. Similarly I strongly believe there are only minor real hits by IAF,IDF on rocket launcehers excpet for their mockup made up from Metal tubes. As to number of causualities in opposite side, yes there may be but how can you se so bure there are 7 deaths of Hizbullah militia? Show me photos of them!
24. Lebanese Army ignores Hezbollah & fires at Israelis !
Jane ,   UK   (08.05.06)
Amazing. The Lebanese Army is conspicuous by it's absence when countless missiles are fired at Israel. Yet when Israeli commandos arrive to confront the Hezbollah terrorists firing the missiles then the Lebanese Army arrives to defend the terrorists.
25. It's Time for a FLAT TYRE
Ertok   (08.05.06)
The IDF should level the place excluding historical sites of course. I mean the Hizbananas wont fire from them will they?
26. To #15 - Infidels will help Israel :-)
Scott   (08.05.06)
There are other things that neutralize the volume factor, which of course you will be aware of not withstanding that to mobilise and protect any army will be difficult: sitting ducks. You and your brothers may think its worthwhile to throw your lives away for some stupid religious conviction. But I'm sure there's enough of us who want to stay around for our families. In any case all this 'martyrdom' stuff is just stupid. Glad I'm an infidel.
27. Why all the covert press releases
Moti ,   Israel   (08.05.06)
Tell us the truth, not we are suceeding, we have taken several villages, we need another two weeks. Can we or cant we get the job done? Where is Sayeret Matkal? what are the secret units that have no name doing? Why do we have to worry about morality when our people are being killed and scared, why are our young men dieng? When will this end, why are we not forcing the world to act? Tell us the truth.
28. Mission Accomplished?
Zann ,   Malaysia   (08.05.06)
Another 'brave' action by IDF commandos.But the Hizbullahs managed to give big casualties to IDF.Do you still have courage to declare mission accomplished?
29. New Headline "Commandos kill 7 terrorists"
David ,   Sydney, Australia   (08.05.06)
BBC reporters will read the headline '10 wounded' and then report in their own news that hezbollah beat back the commando raid. that will embolden the arabs more. Time to show show the world who is winning
30. To All Jews
Siko ,   JPN   (08.05.06)
Arabs of today are not those of 1948 and 1967 , The new arab generation is stronger and more determined to remove the Jewish entity from their region. Prepare your bags and every one of you goes back to his land of origin ! Fare thee well "Israel" :-)
