61. #5 I think some of our nuclear weapons are localized
Talula ,   Israel   (08.29.08)
meaning, they can go airbourne but won't reach us, I think you'd be safe in Eilat : )
62. # 51
Bill ,   US   (08.29.08)
Americans didn't flee Vietnam with their tales between their legs as you put it. In fact, there wasn't a battle where the Viet Cong defeated American troops. After 16 years of non-stop bombardment of that country the policy just looked brutal and it became extremely unpopular in America. So America left. No one can honestly say the Vietnamese whipped us. Israel left Lebanon in 2000 having met their objectives - defeating PLO on the southern border. They left to fulfill international demands.As far as 2006 goes, you're correct. Israel didn't meat its objectives. I'd hardly translate into "Lebanon whipped Israel."
63. Thank you Tzipi for 1701
Dr. Dave ,   NYC   (08.30.08)
You can ALWAYS be counted on for doing the the ayatollahs work.
64. All are idiots who think that there....
Ari ,   Jerusalem   (08.30.08)
is a military solution to our issue with Hizbollah or even Iran! Yes we own advanced weapons and higher technologies but one thing that we cannot use nukes because we are just too close! Let's stop this dumb arrogance and start of thinking of a viable solution to the crises!
65. ISRAELI MILITARY SUPERIORITY
Ahmed ,   Lagos   (08.30.08)
TALK TALK TALK. To all you guy bragging about what israel will do in case of another war. You talk the talk, but can you walk the walk. You guys live in a fantacy of almighty israel. The claim to past victories. fake wars. Wake up to a new era. I guess you know it very well, but can you admit it????
66. What a Joke...
East Bay ,   California   (08.30.08)
Probably true...but what a joke. If the Arab nations can't take care of themselves, why should America bother looking out for them.
67. Launched into their own doom
steve ,   london, england   (08.30.08)
UN Resolution 1701 is another of those pieces of paper that people will recall with regret. Like the UN Charter it is another missed opportunity on the road of human self awareness and social development. If only Al-Jazeera and the BBC had invested as much effort in journaling its progress to success ! If only people would read the holy scriptures instead of shout and scream about them ! If only men had to suffer menstrual cycles ! No matter what sort of military hardware Hezbollah get their hands on there isn't a weapon on Earth to match the wrath of the GOD of Israel. Not even all the nuclear warheads on earth can match the critical mass of GOD's Divine Wrath upon those who compel the Israeli people to put on their uniforms and step on to the battle field. For not one single drop of Israeli blood will spill without the cognition of GOD. Judge ye may but administer justice ye may merely try. People whom play with nuclear weapons should know the difference between the myths of ancient and medieval religion and the eternal and modern truths of science. The conscience of Iran's leaders in this affair has launched their regime into their doom. Soon they will be wiped from the face of the earth. Non violently and by Iranian democracy. This could all happen so much more easily if Al-Jazeera and the BBC would live up to its aspiration "Nation shall speak peace unto nation". That is the BBC's motto. Mine is .......... Amen ve Amen.
68. Fallout from Lebanon.
mike O ,   North Wales UK   (08.30.08)
69. Fallout not a problem.
Mike O ,   N Wales UK   (08.30.08)
If you explode any nuclear weapon at a height where the fireball doesn't reach the ground you get essentially no local fall out. In most cases this is about the optimum height for maximum damage. The only problem is if you are nuking hardened underground targets, then you need a surface burst and get bad fallout.
70. reply to # 62 Bill US
Bandar ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (08.30.08)
It took you 16 years of non stop bombimg to realize that your policy in Vietnam was brutal? Boy, Its either your skulls are really think or its that you are plain stupid. In the end, you fled and the Vietnamese established their free state, so I guess you won the war.
71. Good for Iran!
IRAN#1   (08.30.08)
Israel is being armed to the teeth by the so called "free world" so I say bravo to Iran for at least giving the Lebanease the means to defend themsleves and humiliate the warmongering zionist criminals like the did in the summer of 2006.
72. Is Israel preparing?
Terry Traub ,   Phoenix, Arizona USA   (08.31.08)
Is there any sign that Israel is preparing for the next conflict with Iran and its proxies in Lebanon? Have they implemented a comprehensive missile defense system in the north? Have they installed advanced defense systems on their tanks? The technologies have been largely developed in Israel so one hopes that they will take advantage of it. Lebanon has become a military base for Iran. Israel should permanently annex the land south of the Litani river and drive the Shi'ites out, and allow only Christians and Druze to remain there. To hell with what "the world" thinks; like Joshua of old, Israel today should surround Jericho and take down its walls.
