1. exactly like last year
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (01.08.08)
first there was katyushas from gaza to ashkelon, then shortly thereafter more from lebanon up north. the coordination between terrorists is shamelessly obvious.
2. Imagine the international uproar ...
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.08.08)
If this was an Israeli rocket fired into Lebanon. Everyone would clamor for an investigation, the condemnations would fly fast & furious, the Pope would make a statement, there would be calls to convene the UN security council, the international media would go wild with Israel-bashing articles (more than usual), there would be interviews on CNN & BBC with Lebanese outraged by the attack, our own media would follow suit, the peace loonies would be issuing statements & having press conferences, etc. etc. etc. But shooting missiles into Israel? No problem. Just normal activity by our peaceful neighbors. This will be forgotten before the morning is out.
3. 122mm / 107 mm
ben ,   singapore   (01.08.08)
I suppose Hiz is clearing there old models from the reserve Bunker.
4. Hey Number 2!
Zohar ,   Israel   (01.08.08)
You hit this one right on the nose!! How right you are. It's disgusting!!!
5. This is an act of war!
Adam ,   London   (01.08.08)
6. Expect similar gestures at the vicinity of Bush's stay.
KMR ,   Overseas   (01.08.08)
7. Terry is correct
Israeli ,   North   (01.08.08)
8. And our Esteemed Leadership
Esther ,   Ofarim, Israel   (01.08.08)
will promptly commence defensive measures: Drop on their hands and knees, cover their face up and stick their collective behinds into the air. And our brothers and sisters in the North have to suffer again.
9. Just fire 2 Chetz missiles into Beirut
Squalid Ibn Harman ,   Qtir   (01.08.08)
The response should be equivalent so as not to give them the "David and Goliath excuse" but to show them that we mean business. Oh I forgot we still have incompetent Olmert as PM WHO CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT. And Livri is the only one who has balls in the govt. but doesn't have the brains to do anything right. Oh external G-d of the Jews, LET THESE PEOPLE GO (and give us proper responsible leadership). Arik, why did you fall ill and leave us in the hands of such incompetent people. Why or why?
10. And Israel will not do anything...
Concerned ,   Israel   (01.08.08)
... just like they do in the south. Our government is saying that the citizens of the nation they govern are dispensible. Rubbish!
11. thanks Barak for abandoning our SLA allies!
aaron ,   ra'anana   (01.08.08)
what an arrogant, moron... amazing he was made chief of staff...
12. Well said, Terry.
Kev ,   London   (01.08.08)
W3RD
13. Answer: INVADE!!!!!
(01.08.08)
14. #9 Chetz missiles are anti-ballistic missiles...
Aharon   (01.08.08)
You mean Jericho missiles
15. why sometimes do people do this?
HEZBOLLAH   (01.08.08)
even though i fully back hezbollah, this is a shameful act. they will get lebanon in trouble that we dont want. please, dont think we want war, jews are actually nice people, and ive met some, and we respect their religion, its just the political views we dont like from some of them. the people who done this, should stop, now. even though they might think they will do good, i fear a bigger problem might occur. why cant we just have peace for once in our region? if only a world like that can exist.
16. #2, Terry
israeli ,   israel   (01.08.08)
You forgot Jimmy Carter, who might have been prompted into writing another book - Peace, not Rockets. End that EU woman, Ferrero, tsk-tsk-tsking us and shaking her head in disapproval.
17. #9, Arrow missiles are Anti-missile missiles
Danny   (01.08.08)
You mean drop a few bombs.
18. Mr. President Bush; Bring your troops from the U.S. along
Joseph P. ,   Jerusalem   (01.08.08)
to make things easier for you and us. Have your magnificent troops carpet-bomb Lebanon and Gaza once and for all and the world will forever be grateful to you.
19. 'We can only hope that things quiet down'
eliezer ,   jewrusalem   (01.08.08)
maybe we can pray that things quiet down. maybe we can tremble until things quiet down, maybe we can hide until things quiet down. How did Israelis become such cowards? Only head on agressive use of force will be a deterent to Hamas and Hiszbullah. Only Olmert the non religious would pray at a time when action is needed.
20. #14 Aharon - Thanks. I stand corrected.
Squalid Ibn Harman ,   Qtir   (01.08.08)
21. #17 Danny - Meant Jericho per #14
Squalid Ibn Harman ,   Qtir   (01.08.08)
What I meant is for parity in response so as not to give them the David and Goliath argument. I believe in Gaza that IDF or even citizens of Sderot and surroundings should fire back Qassam or Grad like rockets into Gaza. This would be cheaper, would not endanger IDF, would bring the same type of terror back on Gaza that they dish out, and because they are densely populated we would hit targets most of the time while they miss most of the time. Finally, Arabs can understand this argument better. I believe that all Qassams from Gaza would stop in less than a week if we responded in kind.
22. #21, yeah I know
Danny   (01.08.08)
I sent I think the same time as #14. I think shelling is better, cheaper than rockets.
