THE WAR IS COMING ,   ..............DACON9   (03.21.08)
2. WHERE IS THE OUTCRY
Dan ,   USA   (03.21.08)
Be assured these 25 armored vehicles will be used against the Israeli army. Where the hell is the outcry from the citizens of Israel for Olmert's removal from office. It is very much like you are jst waiting to be defeated and Olmert is doing his best to assure that end.
3. A TERRORIST TOO
A.C.Guard ,   USA   (03.21.08)
Will someone please tell Olmert that Abbas is a terrorist too. He just doesn't have the strength of the Hamas leaders. But as soon as Olmert props him up to gain that strength , Abbas will turn violently against Israel.
4. These will be used against Israel
Nunya   (03.21.08)
Who's in charge of Israel again? Why is this person allowing terrorists to be armed by Russians? I'm confused.......I thought Israel wanted to end terrorism not help it along. I'm beginning to wonder if Israel's leaders want the nation to survive.....
5. Someone has to protect me
Ehud Olmert ,   Ramallah   (03.21.08)
6. Delivery for Al Aqsa Brigade
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.21.08)
And then hamas And we can all thank olmert and livni
7. WHO ARE THEY ARMING THEMSELVES AGAINST?
David P. ,   Santa Cruz, USA   (03.21.08)
It's odd that the PA needs such vehicles as anyone who'd attack them would have to get through Israel first.
8. Not an armored truck without armoury
lydia ,   Brisbane, Australia   (03.22.08)
What's the point of getting an armored truck if it is doesn't even house a single gun turret. Pointless exercise.
9. Why not tanks?
jsm   (03.22.08)
10. I hate to admit it......
Mary ,   Ashkelon   (03.22.08)
but Israel is a country of fools. After Gush Katif, Kassams and Grad missiles we still have have no pride. I am ashamed of my Country, our people are governed by cowards. People of Yesha may G-d be with you, we need the likes of you to save our Jewish Land.
11. Quasi-tanks to build anti-Israel armies, courtesy of Israel.
Michael Reising ,   Berkeley, CA.   (03.22.08)
We know Hamas took over the Gaza Strip with the help of weapons given to them by Israel and the U.S., and stolen from the Palestinian Authority. And we know Hamas has a huge supply and rockets, morters, RPG's as well as Grad missles and machine guns. What makes Israel, given all the aforementioned, think that Hamas cannot overtake the 25 armored vehicles, quickly reenforced them with steel, affix some RPG's on top, take some of the 1,000s of machine-guns we have already supplied the PA with, and have,...it's hard to write, almost a tank... to further sharpen the blade we are holding against our own throats.

12. Russia to deliver 25 armored vehicles to PA
Samuel ,   Southfield, Mich, US   (03.22.08)
I thought Israelis were far brighter than this. How dumb, stupid and ignorant can you be to allow this. The PA, etc. are all your mortal enemies, including the Russians. Forget about making Bush, Cheney and Condi Rice happy. They are blind and do not have Israel's best interests in their hearts. All they care about is making money off of oil They are history !! We will all be rid of them in 10 months.
13. More Israeli blood on Olmerts hands from Suicidal Policies!

14. Russia is back - The Soviet Union created the PLO
Jean Van Daem   (03.22.08)
Lets remember the roots of the idea of a “Palestinian State”. As the conflict with Israel hardened throughout the 1950s, Nasser came to see that Palestinian nationalism, if carefully manipulated, could be an asset instead of just a threat and an annoyance. Although the fedayeen (Arab refugees, trained and armed by Egypt) terrorism prompted Israel to invade the Sinai in 1956, the Egyptian leader saw the value in being able to deploy a force that did his bidding but was not part of Egypt’s formal military; which could make tactical strikes and then disappear into the amorphous demography of the west Bank or the Gaza Strip, giving Egypt plausible deniability for the mayhem it had created. But Nasser’s ability to support such a useful terrorist group was limited by the failed economy over which he presided; and so, in 1964, he was delighted to cooperate with the Soviet Union in the creation of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) as explained at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/02/communist-roots-of-palestinian_342.html

(03.22.08)
yes, its odd. did you see about 2 or 3 weeks ago, the US has been funding fatah with money, arms, and military experience in an attempt to extinguish hamas. So, now it makes sense. have to get through israel first? they've been killing each other-dead on both sides for a while now, israel isnt doing nothing except sitting back and letting them kill each other like animals in a cage.
18. These vehicles are similar to armoured bank trucks
Damir ,   Russia   (03.22.08)
19. Whom do you think the Chechen police consists of?
Damir ,   Russia   (03.22.08)
The same people, the Chechens, armed with the same Kalashnikovs, patrolling the same streets and villages. But now they uphold the law of Russian Fedieration, not the customs of terrorism, because their current president, Kadyrov, knows what is the best for Chechnya. The solution exists.
20. yeh ,more weapons!
oded   (03.22.08)
that's the ticket.."bolster"" that pos, by giving his forces more weapons that we'll have to fight, eventually... how stupid and moronic, but then again , what can we expect from a moron like olmert?
21. We should say thanks to Olmert and Putin
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (03.23.08)
By giving military training to the Chechens
