2. The Man said, AFTER THE ATTACK he stressed he would act.....
Roy c. Hudson ,   Pittsburg USA   (05.04.08)
That tells Israel where He stands with Zion. that is how his Preacher & his Friend Louis Farakhan feels & talks about Gods Elect & the Holy City Jerusalem. He can't help but show his Hand & where He stands if he & his house takes over the White house. Away with that . Israel is under attack right now by Iran.I say we Hit first & talk later. if talk is needed at all. Roy c. Hudson USA

David P. ,   sf, usa   (05.04.08)
he is no friend of Israel and if he is elected president of the USA Americans will pay a very heavy price for their foolishness
4. BARACK OBAMA'S MUSLIM CHILDHOOD
Norway   (05.04.08)
"Obama asserted in December, "I've always been a Christian," and he has adamantly denied ever having been a Muslim." http://www.danielpipes.org/article/5544 OBAMA CONVERTS TO JUDAISM "I am converting to Judaism, effective immediately," Mr. Obama told reporters at a press conference in Scarsdale, New York, adding that he would change his middle name from "Hussein" to "Murray." http://jewishworldreview.com/0308/borowitz031708.php3 ARAB-AMERICAN ACTIVIST SAYS OBAMA HIDING ANTI-ISRAEL STANCE. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/125656
5. Iranian hypocrisy.
bob ,   los angeles   (05.04.08)
Since 1979 Iran has called for Israel's destruction yet it is offended when somone threatens retaliation. Do these Iranians even see the contradiction? No, because they believe it is their 'holy' Moslem duty to destroy Jews. This evil Islamic government and its nuclear facilities must itself be destroyed and soon.
6. Yeah! and we'll defend America after they're attacked!
gimme a break!   (05.04.08)
7.  What do Americans get from Israel other than Wars?
Dean ,   USA   (05.04.08)
and please don't give us the democracy crap (there are more than 300 democracies in the world, none of them gets 0.00001% of what Israel gets from US) or closest ally BS because all US problems in the mideast are fomented by Israel and its occupation & repression of Palestine.

10. #7 Dean
Alex ,   California   (05.04.08)

11. Obama scares me
leon ,   Grand Rapids U S A   (05.04.08)

robert ,   farmington,wv   (05.04.08)

16. To #s 7 &10
Steve ,   Berkeley, California   (05.04.08)
If you care so little of Jews and Israel why are you on an Israeli news site except to spew hatred and ignorance? I doubt either of you is actually from the USA. Crawl back into your caves.
17. # 7 - why does every candidate support Israel?
redmike ,   Tel Aviv, London, LA   (05.04.08)
If you asked yourself the above and thought about it or perhaps even researched it a little then you wouldn't have made you post. Without Israel the US wouldn't have a foothold in the middle east. Not just oil but influence. The US and Israel have a symbiotic relationship. The US gives money and Israel gives blood. Mike
18. Dean & Alex
Brian ,   Los Angeles   (05.04.08)
Your question, Dean is appropriate, but your comment about "more than 300 democracies in the world" betrays your lack of understanding of "democracy" nor your understanding of the world. Anti-Semitism may have nothing to do with your comments but they do single out Israel in an exaggerated and incorrect manner. First, there are only 245 countries in the world, less than 70 of which are considered democracies. Second, there are many countries receiving aid from the United States. Some, including Egypt, receive roughly the same aid as Israel. Finally, Israel provides the United States with a strong and consistent military, diplomatic and economic ally in one of the most volatile and strategic places on the planet. It's democracy means that its relationship with the United States does not change with the whims of its leaders. It's military shares intelligence, material, experience and support. It's economy provides more technologic innovation then any country on the planet except the United States itself. And, its people support the American people and their goals. Unlike many neighboring counties, there was no dancing in Tel-Aviv on 9-11. If you can promote an intelligent discussion on these issues in the context of the broader community, please do. But, if you single out Israel and exaggerate your point to vilify Israel and only Isreal then, yes, it is anti-Semitic.
19. # 7 THE MIRACLE - ISRAEL, 3800 YEARS OF HISTORY,
Norway   (05.04.08)
OCCUPIED FOR 2000 YEARS BY CHRISTIANS AND MOSLEMS! ARCHAELOGISTS IN ISRAEL FIND ANCIENT TUNNELS FROM JEWISH REVOLT AGAINST ROMANS IN KFAR KANA, NORTH OF NAZARETH. http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Culture/8028.htm THIS MAY THE JEWS WILL CELEBRATE 60 YEARS OF RENEWED SOVEREIGNTY! The miracle happened in spite of great challenges and uncountable attempts of extermination. The first Jews who experienced this miracle were a little remnant who survived the European crematorium furnace. THE YAD VASHEM CHANNELS http://www.youtube.com/user/YadVashem And the Jews who in the last minute saved their necks from Islam's sword in the Arab countries.

20. Dean/Alex-Are you both writing from a cave in Tora Bora???
Alan ,   SA   (05.05.08)
21. obama the car salesman
zionist forever   (05.05.08)
ISRAEL This is a beutifull little number vintage 60 year old car a real clasic and in full working order and if there are any problems come back to me and I will fix it all up for you free of charge because I am a friendly salesman who will stand by you all the way. IRAN Now this car is actually a very sporty little car is actually a Ferari with a neuclear powered engine so its never going to let you down. ARABS This car here is a Rolls Royce just right what ank arab sheik needs if he wants to put on a good impresion .. drinks alot of gas so good thing you have all that oil. Same car just different sales pitch to different audiences telling everybody what they want to hear not what he means. There is no way that President Obama would risk the lives of Amrican soilders to go help Israel instead he would probably try preasure Israel into making a deal where it gives the arabs anything they want and in return they will let it survive in some form. If it happened in an ellection year well Israel will be left burning after the Iranian nuke has hit because body bags with US troops dont do alot to win you votes. Obama is bad news for Israel he is great at making speeches and being all things to all people but other than that he would make Jimmy Carter look like a friend of Israel. Right now Obama is chasing the Democart jewish vote thats all.
22. obama friend to "palestinians." Trust him less than rice.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica,CA USA   (05.05.08)
23. AFTER????
janiece ,   Hemet,CA (North Amer   (05.05.08)
24. Obama Jewish.
Janet Jiblinsky ,   Baltimore   (05.05.08)
I heard Obama had jewish roots. Who knows more...
25. american congress
bri ,   phil usa   (05.05.08)
will support israel even if it leads to all out nuclear war
26. obama comments
Charlie ,   woodmere usa   (05.05.08)
It's telling that Obama mentions a willingness to assist Israel only after an attack, an attack that could leave nothing to salvage of the once thriving Jewish state. Democrats of his ilk do not understand the moral legitimacy of preemptive self defense against an enemy sworn to your destruction and seeking the means to effectuate it.
27. Obama - the Wright-wing candidate.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (05.05.08)
28. Obama does not favor prevention
Nora ,   Tel Aviv   (05.05.08)
Obama to Israel: Don`t expect me to act unless Iran nukes you first. Thank you Obama thank you. Let me kiss you on both cheeks.
29. #7, one of the most ignorant comments ever
Dann   (05.05.08)
There are just over 190 countries in the world, the vast majority are not democracies - so lie number 1. Israel this year received around 2.5billion USD in MILITARY CREDITS - which can only be spent on US military goods. 0.00001% of that is 250USD which I can guarantee quite a few countries get more than - lie number 2. But hey who care about facts?
30. #10, why would that be?
Danny   (05.05.08)
Because he blames ALL of the US's problems on Jews? Because he makes patent lies to back that claim up? If that is not anti-semitic then what exactly would he have to do in order to be considered one?
