2. YNET...unless Yaser means CH-53A/D you misnamed the picture.
KEITH ,   NY,USA   (08.14.06)
I spent 4 years in the United States Marine Corps as a CH-53E helicopter mechanic. So, when I see that picture I know immediatly that it was made by Sikorsky Helicopter in Bridgeport Connecticut, USA.
3. IDF & IAF fired 167.000 rockets on Lebanon in a month
Bill ,   Bill city   (08.14.06)
of course we are supplied by allies, but this has a high cost
4. Go IDF

Waste every last one of the hezbolla fighters.

Arie ,   Israel/ USA   (08.14.06)
Don't worry, Keith. These are the same choppers. The Israelis perform some modifications and give them unique names - they don't claim to have built them.
6. Why are these delusional posts still being published?
Jay ,   Los Angeles   (08.14.06)
Earth to "X" - Israel has surrendered.
7. Oh...thank Arie!!

Benjamin ,   Denver   (08.14.06)
Keith, Every aircraft has a nickname in the IAF. Just as here in the states the CH-53's are the "Jolly Green Giants", and CH-47's are "Sea Knights" (BTW, my best friend form college was a Sea Knight pilot during the first Gulf War), in Israel it is nicknamed the "Yasur".
9. STOP LYING,IDF SAID THAT 4 SOLDIERS ARE NOT FOUND
Lebanese ,   Lebanon   (08.14.06)
till yesterdy evening the bodies of crew wasn't found yet,& here some soldier is saying that paratroopers yesterday morning found the bodies.
10. and now what
herodotus   (08.14.06)
the insurgents will keep up their activity.our solution should be to send small cells of special forces as hunters. bumbling clanging tanks and armies are not the answer to the problems caused by the insurgents. thank you ron ben yishai for an enlightening story.
11. how to keep losses to a minimum
herodotus   (08.14.06)
withdraw the army from the south and send in hunter teams. please understand that the merkava is not the answer to the insurgents.stop sending merkavas against the insurgents. the anti tank missiles present in abundance among the guerrillas makes this an entirely new type of war.
12. tears
John Charles Franz ,   Lake Ozark, Mo. USA   (08.15.06)
I weep for your fallen soldiers and innocents slain by the Ammonites. Who now, will be priests to all nations. Please, Please Father GOD protect Israel-Please in the name of Christ-Amen
