the 000s of innocent Palestinians caught up in your targeted executions or your collective punishment.

6. trying to make this a negotiating point
Zvi   (08.31.08)
It's all about trying to get something real from Israel in exchange for undertaking the supposedly "difficult" task of "finding" remains that are probably buried under Assad's bed. People, don't be dumb enough to fall for this. Cohen was a hero, but Israel has already returned all the Syrians it had buried. Syria should return Cohen. Israel should never buy back the dead for anything substantive.
7. to #2...pollard is a traitor
john ,   bristow   (08.31.08)
Pollard should be executed. He was a traitor and the USA will never forget that. Pollard will never be released.

9. Eli Cohen
Hertzel ,   Usa   (08.31.08)
BRING HIM HOME NOW !!!!
10. "Despite Israeli efforts..."
Shimon ,   Cincinnati,USA   (08.31.08)
NONSENSE!!!!! His communications were revealed in the Israeli press! He was discovered because of (guess what?) Israeli Government leaks. My, my how the big mouthed, arrogant politicians have changed. Little men. Little, little men.
11. Sites
Simon ,   US   (08.31.08)
The body was probably torn apart and parts buried in various places - if that good. They know what happened and where remains are.
12. Bury all dead enemies in pig's skin...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (08.31.08)
... just like General John J. Pershing did to muslim terrorists in 1911 in the Philippines. If they desecrate our dead and murder our prisoners, they should get the same treatment.
13. reply to #3 Roland Seener
Bandar ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (08.31.08)
By reading your post, one would think you were talking about mother Teresa there. The man was a spy and he got what he deserved.
14. they know where he is but his story is a syrian embaresment
zionist forver   (08.31.08)
They dont just loose the body of somebody like Eli Cohen they just dont want his body found and returned ever because one of the main reasons they lost in 1967 was because of this Israeli spy they allowed to infiltrate the highest levels of the Syrian politican and military hierarchy. Israel knew where Syrian troops were stationed on the Golan because Cohen had advised the generals to plant trees at these sites to give a little shade to the brave Syrian soilders so they did and the IDF knew exactly where to go ... just look for the trees. Even if this information was in exchange for the Golan giving Israel back the the remains of the man that made conquering it possible would be an embaresment fot the Assad regime. At the end of the day allthough sad that he doesnt have a grave site to mourn at its his soul that matters and it doesnt matter what the arabs have done to his physical body or wear it is buried Cohen was responsible for saving the lives of thousands of jews so his soul is safe. As for everybody else his family have the memories of the man and the time spent with him and the rest of the country know he was a hero who died protecting his country even if he wasnt running around with a gun shooting at enemy soilders.
15. Eli Cohen
sas ,   israel   (08.31.08)
has been totally neglected so many years and he certainly did alot for this country. we need to bring his body back for burial here. I admire his wife and chid/ren for being so brave.
16. #1 Amen
silent majority ,   Israel   (08.31.08)
17. 2 words. Bull S.t. You figure it out
Joe ,   Ohio, USA   (08.31.08)
18. #4 - your 'innocent pals' are convicted terrorists...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (08.31.08)
... who have planned and/or carried out terror attacks against innocent Israelis on their way to work, school or hospital. These so called "innocent palestinians" have deliberately targeted the civilians trying to create as much mass murder as possible. Proof to it is the on-going rocket fire from Gaza into Israeli communities. This is quite unlike the IDF which tries to carry out surgical strikes against specific terrorist targets - in order to AVOID collective punishment and eliminate or reduce collateral damage as much as possible. The information which reaches Brisbane (and comes from it) seems to go through the same Islamo-Leftist distortion filter just as anywhere else - or is it racism and lack of education which drives your venomous and pathetic rant?
19. It is gone
Shlomo the Homo ,   Tel Aviv   (08.31.08)
Cohen body will never return to Israel. No one in Syria want to see Israel achieve such goal. plus what Israel can do about it ? we have no cards in our hands
20. Honest Openion
Wise Man ,   USA   (08.31.08)
Ok, For Israel Cohen is a hero and I totaly understand that. Bur for Syrian he is the one responsible for losing 1967 war and for losing the Golan heights. Do you think the Syrian want to open that door ? Do you think that Syrian want to get humiliated again by giving his body away ? and for what price ? May be the Golan if you think about it.
21. #18, she is a wind-up merchant
Danny   (08.31.08)
no one can be that dumb so consistently
22. to all you Pollard haters
Charles   (08.31.08)

23. We are Dealing
Ely ,   Pardes Chana   (08.31.08)
With a Wicked Syria!!!!!!! However when G-D harden's their heart, they will go to war against us and we will be blessed to take over all of Syria. We will then give Ely Cohen a proper funeral that he Deserves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
