Israel will collect some hizbollah terrorists. They can talk, and I gather they will indeed.

Trust us Israelis on this. I'm sure that even us Israelis can distinguish children from the adults.

You are not to be trusted,not ever left unmonitored.You have proven it to my family during 2000 years in Iraq and then in Eretz Israel. You are a temporary squater on our land,and your behaviour and attitude leaves us no choice but to seek your reunion with the native land of your forefathers,Saudi Arabia. Do it nicely and you may get paid. The alternative is not pretty,just look out your window. We serve one master,Hashem. While you serve the highest bidder. You,your national aspirations and agenda,and your people are a fraud,and a hoax. So...dont worry...we have no more agreements to sign.

Check your facts, Zack. None other than Hezbollah TV (al Manar) said they were Hezbollah. I don't think you'll find any Palestinian children in Israeli jails, either. However, you will find the likes of Ahmed Saadat and Samir Kuntar. While you're busy checking your facts, try not to rely on the CBC. Just this once, think for yourself.

Ben: your use of the word "Jewish" shows us exactly what your attitude is. The name of the country, I believe, is Israel, and it's been on most world maps since 1948. And in any case, I seem to recall there being a paragraph in UN resolution 1701 that said that there was an immediate embargo on weapons in southern Lebanon. My, my, what we miss when we see the world with just one eye.

Salameh, did Al-Manar not tell you about how Lebanon refuses to disarm Hezbollah barely days after agreeing to do it? Why do you bother visiting this site? Surely, al-Manar has all the news you care about.

Lets get the facts right. The stupid muslim terrorists started a satanic jihad against everyone. This is a religious war .All they do is kill people all over the world . If your not a muslim ,you're on their list.Remember ...Not all muslims are terrorists... but most terrorists are muslims. frank

lies after lies. idf u failed horribly .stop lying ,this will not cover ur failure, now every body doesnt trust ur shitty lies

Israel voilated the UN resolution and laied by saying that they went there to stop transporting weapons to Hizballah and the facts that they went there to kidnapp members of Hizballah .... seams they forgot that the tow soldiers are still threre and like this Hizballah will have the right to kidnapp more Israelians and will not be blamed if they do this .... another adventure could cost Israel alot again .... get rid of this leaders they are driving the wholöe area to the darkness

you are a genius

Foot soldiers take you nowhere

With this sort of Policy ,mr Olmert could be left by all civlized nations and remain alone to face 350 millions Arabs

Why don't you knock it off pinhead? You know the operation was in vain? you are a defeatist. The next operation should be on your shriveled brain.Or your shriveled testicles.

The cease fire is porous to begin with. Israel should not have accepted it in the first instance. NOW, Israel must certainly stop the rearming of the evil Hezbolli. If the cease fire collapses so it collapses . Israel should finish off the Hezbolli killers of the Jewish people AM YISRAEL CHAI NETZACH YISRAEL

What the hell do you know what the mission was and why it was done the way it was done. Stop acting like you know the inner mechanics of the IDF. Whatever they did, they did because it was the smartest thing to do. The people in the IDF are a lot smarter than you can ever hope to become.

As a Christian, the Biblical propetical significance of this will go completely unnoticed by this secular God hating world. Olmerts' handling/bungling of this war is inexcusable, and points to the wisdom of allowing the military to conduct wars, not politicians. We should have learned that lesson in Viet Nam with our bungler, the bumpkin from Texas..LBJ.

Because Israel is not already alone? For sure, the Islamix republic of France is agaisnt is Israel. But it is far from the most dangerous country unless you take in consideration they could transmit sexual diseases when they lay down -lol

once more :the operation was approved by PM olmert,peretz &halutz!!!! it sounds good.but my advice to israeli people if they want to save smth. of israel you must do smth. with this TRIO that are damaging everything in israel & are killing the will inside IDF soldiers in such unresponsible operations.By the way Halutz is making better in business & olmert in buying appartments for cheap prices than in politics & military

#26 Well spoken, Patte. You speak honestly and truthfully from the heart WELL DONE!!! If you had pushed him harder , he most likely would have said he meant he was referring only to jews

Mr. Patte, The only thing that I might believe in what you have written is “The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States” nothing else. What you have mentioned is not right. If what you mentioned is true, then what you do not give us the name of that Imam???. I am a Muslim and I respect all religions. And this one of the fundamentals of Islam. Mr. Rick Mathes made a mistake when he said Allah or Jesus??? Because you can not compare both. He had a narrow knowledge about Islam. For your info, Muslims believe in Jesus. Not actually, just Jesus. We believe in all the God’s messengers. After reading your article, I advise you to read about Islam from real sources not from a racist one. We as Muslims respect all on this earth. I repeat if your story is true then you have to provide us with the name of that Imam…..FACT: in Islam anyone can be a Muslim …it is for everyone, but I just wonder can anybody become a Jewish?? or his parents should be Jews in order to be a Jewish???

Hey Jock, When are you French going to stop talking out of both sides of your mouth and develop a little spine to fight these terrorist fanatics. They would saw your head off as quickly as they would any other infidels.

Hey Jack, When was the last time you saw a video of an Israeli sawing the head off of a Muslim terrorist? When was the last time you saw an Israeli soldier walk into a crowded restaurant or market and blow every living soul within 100 yards to smithereens smart guy? When was the last time you saw an Insraeli soldier ram two airliners into buildings killing over 3,000 innocent people wise guy? You naive fool.

Amir peretz promissed israeli that he will not allow hizbollah flags to be on the border again, HAHAHAHA BULLSh*t..... Hizbollah Flags, Arms, Men ans Supporters are Still on the Border, U lost this war..... Reference: Safir newspaper reported that Hizbullah officials said members group have begun to resettle most of south Lebanon’s villages and towns, adding that Hizbullah flags have once again been placed along the border. (Roee Nahmias)

With Olmert desperate to score points with the voters, all Hezbollah has to do is to lie in wait for the next shipment of cannon fodder from Olmert . The commando raid was doomed to failure because it lacked an element of surprise.

David was a courageous warrior, but he knew that his victory came from YHVH. Israel will succeed, but, there will be loss, untill Israel comes to a unity with YHVH as King David did. Return to Torah Israel

The rules of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS when it comes to the Israeli-Arab conflict: Rule # 1: In the Middle East, it is always the Arabs that attack first, and it's always Israel who defends itself. This is called "retaliation". Rule # 2: The Arabs, whether Palestinians or Lebanese, are not allowed to kill Israelis. This is called "terrorism" Rule # 3: Israel has the right to kill Arab civilians; this is called "self-defense", or these days "collateral damage". Rule # 4: When Israel kills too many civilians. The Western world calls for restraint. This is called the "reaction of the international community". Rule # 5: Palestinians and Lebanese do not have the right to capture Israeli military, not even a limited number, not even 1 or 2. Rule # 6: Israel has the right to capture as many Palestinians as they want (Palestinians: around 10000 to date, 300 of which are children, Lebanese: 1000s to date, being held without trial). There is no limit;there is no need for proof of guilt or trial. All that is needed is the magic word: "terrorism" Rule # 7: When you say "Hezbollah", always be sure to add "supported by Syria and Iran" Rule # 8: When you say "Israel", never say "supported by the USA, the UK and other European countries", for people (God forbid) might believe this is not an equal conflict Rule # 9: When it comes to Israel, don't mention the words "occupied territories", "UN resolutions", "Geneva conventions". This could distress the audience of Fox. Rule # 10: Israelis speak better English than Arabs. This is why we let them Speak out as much as possible, so that they can explain rules 1 through 9. This is called "neutral journalism". Rule # 11: If you don't agree with these rules or if you favor the Arab side over the Israeli side, you must be a very dangerous anti-Semite. You may even have to make a public apology if you express your honest opinion (isn't democracy wonderful?)

this whole situation was done and dealed.

I agree with Jason, #43, but would not put it quite like that. Ohhh . . .yes I would.
