31. wow!!!
freeman   (11.03.06)
using state of the art weapons against the palestinian civilians can only add on to the black list of israel...just like the palestinian civilians pay the israeli civilians (if there is such a thing in this society) will also pay...this has always been the case and i see it no different this time.
32. # 25 "Were" is a past , isn't it
(11.03.06)
Jews "were" in Palestine..... ! Now, we accept them, but zionists do not want to.
33. Enough is enough!
Ishak Haskiya ,   Roskilde-Denmark   (11.03.06)
Well done IDF!. Shabat Shalom to Israel.
34. it's war
sandgroper   (11.03.06)
destroy Hamas - no mercy, until they lay down their arms and unconditionally surrender
35. HAMAS HIDES BEHIND WOMEN'S SKIRTS????
Elana ,   LA, USA   (11.03.06)
They are the most cowardly and unmanly men on the entire planet. I'm going to throw up!!! What is wrong with the Arab world? Hamas has just humiliated themselves enough to last until the end of time.
36. A message from a Muslim Arab to the Israeli people
Ali ,   Jenin,Palestine   (11.03.06)
In response to those who are demanding a full scale massacre in Gaza and the west bank, I tell them go for it if you dare. The problem is you cannot do it. Deep down every Israeli knows that an attempted genocide of the Palestinian people will mean the destruction of Israel by 1.4 Billion Muslims strong. Muslims are slowly gaining control of their own territories and they will soon rise up to this occupation. From Fallujah to Alaqsa to all the way to Morroco I tell you our lands will be liberated. It is just a matter of when.You wil soon be forced to deal with the Egyptian people, 80 million strong. You will soon have to deal Iran,Syria,and even the people of Iraq and Insha` Allah other countries in the near future. I urge every Israeli to avoid these confrontations by 1)Denouncing Violence 2)accepting Palestine`s right to exist 3)Disarm
37. Every day Israelis prove they are criminals
Noora ,   Bahrain   (11.03.06)
38. # 22 zionists losing their pride! even deny zionism !
(11.03.06)
39. #13 your in need of a history lesson
Michael   (11.03.06)
judaism and the settling of Israel predates Islam 2,100 years. enough said. If the Jews are foreigners to Israel then therea re no indengious people ti Israel . So if we just cancel history. We have to go with the facts on the ground. The fact here is the jews are here and will remain here. this is g-ds' will. If it wasn't you would have annihilated us already. 1948,1956,1967,1973,1982,2006. How many failures do you need to realize this fact.
40. Beit Hanoun mosque operation
Robert ,   Paris, France   (11.03.06)
Did I well understand ? you wrote "terrorists fled from the scene", so IDF failed this operation because of womenshield.
41. Sad but not surprised
Margret   (11.03.06)
The terrorists do not love their wives,mothers, and daughters or else they would not have used them as human shields when fighting with other armed men.
42. Ali of Jenin-Don't forget to bring your women human shields
Elana ,   LA, USA   (11.03.06)
Israel has no intention of killing all the Paleos. That would make Israelis too much like Arab Muslims. The Paleos should disarm if they want to live decent lives (which I don't think you do.) You'd rather teach your children to commit suicide. I hope your children rise against you one day and tell you that their lives do actually matter so stop trying to make them kill themselves.
43. What is a mosque?
Ed ,   England   (11.03.06)
In some parts of England, there are mosques that look like an old house; this is because that's what they used to be. They're called 'mosque' nowadays because people worship there: name follows function. If terrorists hole up in a mosque, then surely its function ceases to be a mosque and it becomes a military strong-point. That makes it a valid military target -- just bomb the place.
44. #39 (Michael)
Andrew ,   England   (11.03.06)
Agreed. The Jewish claim to the Holy Land is much older then that of our Arab cousins. It has been our homeland for 3,000 years, and until the first Arab invaders arrived in the 700s, no descendants of Ishmael ever claimed any part of the land for themselves. Islam was established only 1425 years ago, more then 1700 years AFTER Jews made Jerusalem their capital! The Land of Israel is mentioned many hundreds of times in the Torah by its names “Canaan” and/or “Israel”; other names such as Zion are many many times more. The city of Jerusalem is mentioned 622 times in the Torah by its name Jerusalem and is referred to thousands of times by other names. The land of Israel and the city of Jerusalem are NEVER mentioned in the Quran, the book held holiest by Ishmael's descendants—not as “Palestine,” not as “Israel” and not by ANY other name! We are required to PROTECT ourselves from danger, and cutting the land into pieces and giving OUR land away to people who are trying to destroy us (using the weapons WE provided them and the cities we gave them), are CLEARLY opposed by Jewish law. We are not permitted to give away land so that terrorism can be cultivated! In Jewish law, a Jew is not allowed to hand over ANY parts of the Holy Land to a non-Jew. Giving the land away only brings more danger upon our people, as we witness these days. May peace prevail in the region and both the Jews and Arabs know of no further suffering.
45. Arab Muslim misogyny and child abuse.
Richard James ,   NY, USA   (11.03.06)
There's a comic strip somewhere showing Pal parents watching their children playing. They say, "Oh, they just blow up so fast, don't they?" Arab Muslim women must live in constant fear that their own families will murder them for "honor" at any moment. Arab Muslim children are taught to aspire to suicide. Women and youngsters in Israeli prisons are safer there. They won't be "honor killed" or turned into suicide bombers in Israel. They're given three good meals every day instead. The Arab Muslim world is very messed up.
46. Ali in En-Gannim (so called 'Jenin')
Barry   (11.03.06)
You seem to forget that the USA and Russia each have 12,500 nuclear weapons including hydrogen bombs. If the 1.4 billion Muslims endanger World peace they may find themselves on the receiving end of a terrible blow
47. Muslim women volunteer
(11.03.06)
48. muslim women volunteer for human shield.
(11.03.06)
women who fear that their own family would kill them in "honor" are not muslims, you can adress them .
49. The picture says it all
Arie ,   Afula   (11.03.06)
muHAMedan "men" using women as human kevlar to protect them.
50. to # 42
Ali ,   Jenin,Palestine   (11.03.06)
The prophet (saws) said to ibn abbas: "if the whole nation were to gather together to benefit you they would only benefit you with that which Allah had already written you and if the whole nation were to gather to harm you they could only harm you with that which Allah had already written to harm you. The pen has been lifted and the ink has dried". If you were a true believer in God you would have never even asked this stupid question. If all the muslims end up getting blown to bits by nuclear bombs, then so be it. We will all meet our Lord anyways. As for our women volunteering their bodies for their people, I have never been more proud to be a Palestinian than ever before. Peace!
51. Oh, is it un-Islamic to fear being 'honor murdered'?
Elana ,   LA, USA   (11.03.06)
So, if the woman fears for her life, then she's not Muslim anyway so she should be murdered as an infidel? Maybe Muslim women choose being human shields because death is a better alternative to them than having to live in such a women-hating society. Make no mistake about it: A society that murders its own female family members for the sake of "honor" does actually HATE WOMEN.
52. Love doesn't mean having to 'honor kill' women.
Richard James ,   NY, USA   (11.03.06)
They're going to say "No, we LOVE our women very much!" If the Arab Muslims love their women so much that they feel compelled to murder them in honor killings, then they should try loving them a little less.
53. #45 muslim women volunteer for human shield
(11.03.06)
women who fear that their own family would kill them in "honor" are not muslims, you can adress them .
54. #46 do you mean the same fate of RUSSR
(11.03.06)
55. #29 and ignorance...
DR ,   Florida, USA   (11.03.06)
How come you don't condemn the terorist scumbags that hide in a mosque weilding weapons and using women as shields??? How come all people like you can do is point fingers at Israel, a country that is terrorized everyday by rockets, gunfire and attempted suicide bombers??? We all know that ISlam as a whole is not extreme and violent, BUT, there are millions of Muslims who prove the contrary everyday. The biggest problem I have with this religion and culture is that we see no condemnation from the moderate voices agianst the radical, violent TERRORISTS. These people will never accomplish anything throug violence. The whole world will stop them, not just Israel.
56. Pal terrorists don't really want to die.
Richard James ,   NY, USA   (11.03.06)
That's why they talk women and children into dying instead. The terrorists want to live to commit as much murder and mayhem as they can. Their own women and children are expendable to the terrorists.
57. Noora nr. 18
leon ,   Grand Rapids USA   (11.03.06)
Every day you prove you're out of touch with reality.
58. #50, Ali from Jenin...
DR ,   Florida, USA   (11.03.06)
Your words prove a huge point that Isarel has been pointing to for decades. You people would rather die tha live in peace. Your whole culture is based on the afterlife and meeting up with Allah. What if you lived this life and enjoyed your time on Earth, NOW. How do you know that Allah is waiting for you? Maybe you just rot in the ground like everything else? You speak of all the Arab nations coming to save and liberate Palestine, BUT where have these fornds of your been in the last fiifty years? Wake up man, they don't give two shits about you. They would rather have all of you die so that they can move on and make money selling oil. The only thing that can help you is YOU. Stop teaching violence, stop terrorizing Isarel and for god's sake stop using women as shields...that's the lowest thing a "man" can do, but then again, there are no men among you, just cowards!!!
59. Attributing a fault to a whole race proves your racism
Ali ,   Jenin,Palestine   (11.03.06)
Let me make it clear to all the bigots and racists. I do not attribute a fault or crime commited by Jew (example:Rabbi caught molesting kid) to all Jews. Have some respect and do not conclude that if someone commits an "honor killing" then it is because Islam tels us to, which has nothing to do with this crime. In the same way There is nothing in Jewish Tradition that advocates molesting a kid. We love our women but if our women love their people so much that they will literally sacrifice their own lives for their people then nobody can take away their right to do so. Gender has nothing to do with it, unless you are from the middle ages who believes that women are all wimps. After all, strength comes from the heart.
60. #36: re-Muslims rising up against infidels
(11.03.06)
sounds like a wish, not a plan. If Muslims cared about your palestinian arabic peoples, they would have bailed you out long ago. Well, I won't deny that you can dream...
