1. Lost a leg?
Cameron ,   USA   (11.29.08)
Will there be sweets handed out on Gaza streets?
2. shame on this government !!!
stephane ,   france   (11.29.08)
israel left gaza in 2005, there is no more israelis living there, no more IDF base in gaza. but the nazislamists didn't stop launching rockets after the gaza pullout ! i'm not surprised from that fact; i also writed that it will be like that if we leave gaza to the nazislamists! so now that the right is with us because we're not in gaza anymore why don't this government launch a big operation against gaza !? what are you waiting for ? you wait for dead kids in sderot or ashkelon to move your as...s ?! i wroted it before 2005 in my talkbacks: the more israel wait to launch this operation; the more it will be difficult and painfull.
3. A soldiers sacrifice
DT ,   TA   (11.29.08)
A high price to pay for anybody but inexcusable for anyone to call what we have a "truce". I hope Israeli's realise the only way to solve this problem is to decimate Kadima, Labour and left wing parties on Feb 10th
4. barak lost his guts when he entered politics
jason white ,   afula,israel   (11.29.08)
olmert never had any. Enough with this coalition of cowards. The people demand that these cowards and their followers be tried and punished.
5. take your angels and go
(11.29.08)
6. Enought!
Stephanie ,   Herzliya, Israel   (11.29.08)
The government either must do something definitive about the qassams/mortars or they must give the soldiers/residents adequate protection. What other country would stand for this? How can we allow our people to be so unprotected.? How have we allowed this to happen???
7. And the morons still talk about the ''truce''
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (11.29.08)
Elections just can't come soon enough to get rid of these jerks like Barak & Livni.
8. Kill the terrorists
Steve   (11.29.08)
Hunt them down relentlessly, every last one of them, and shoot them. Bomb their offices, demolish their houses, do whatever it takes. These terrorists must be crushed once and for all. Hit them with everything we've got.
9. true, but ony when israel allows some sweets into Gaza!!

10. defence
colin ,   c   (11.29.08)
Israeli are injured by bomds while the corrupt government gives hamas to eat,arm hamas with guns,supplies money to buy ammunition releases murderers,evicts jewish children with thier mothers from homes at night all to appease Rice who demands that arabs who are suffering at the hands of the Egyptians and the world anemosity be happy.The cowardly israeli NON DEFENCE MINISTER sits in T A and flaps his jaws with some say are words,His cowardice has even entered the ranks of the IDF.
11. Israel's cream of the crop leadership
Marcel ,   Florida   (11.29.08)
Restrained and reduced to an impotent force. That is Israel today with her ciorrupt, weak and fearful leadership How pitiful, Israel cannot respond to the Gaza terrorists because they listen to Bush instead of Hashem and he tells Israel not to defeat Hamas. Why is Israel in such a mess with such treacherous evil leaders ? Why do such corrupt and evil leaders float to the top of Israel leadership ? Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. Isaiah 1:4 When the people forsake God they embrace insanity and Israel has become insanely mad.

# 9. The gazans can have tons of sweets through hundreds of tunnels. To Noam´ s mother: I am so sorry for your son. I pray for him and your family . I don´t say that I know your pain but I can imagine it. Even one Qassam is too much! Why don´t you all strike or something to make mr. "defenceminister" to defend the country?
14. This soldier has no leg because

18. This soldier has no leg because
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (11.30.08)
aside from having a spineless, brainless, souless government , we've got a few hundred thousands, if not millions of voters who CHOSE KADIMA, to head it. Elections are coming, put side all prejudices against religious or right-eous and VOTE FOR LIFE !!!!!!!!!!
19. The Israeli response is
Joe ,   Israel   (11.30.08)
To release 250 more terrorist next month. Olmert wants to leave scortch earth before he goes to prison for corruption.
20. He's a lucky guy to lose a leg in Israel. The veterans
Rivkah   (11.30.08)
of the IDF I met at Sheba-Chaim Medical Center in 2006 were well taken care of. One lost a leg in the 1967 war and needed a prosthetic replacement with surgery. He and his wife stayed for free at the Apropo Hotel and a restaurant at Gali Center in Ramut Gan let him eat for free there for losing a leg for Israel. Even decades after losing his leg, the government still looked after him. That may not seem remarkable to some people, but I have seen people in the streets of third world countries like Mexico with a broken leg who had to beg for food because there was no healthcare system for them in their poverty.
21. soldier didn't lose leg. but, his leg was lost
(11.30.08)
22. 21...
Rivkah   (12.01.08)
Irmo, your sentence sounds like a Prince Albert in a can joke..."Do you have Prince Albert in a can at your store? Then you better let him out." "Is your refrigerator running? Then you better go catch it."
23. Bulshit!!!
Roni ,   Haifa   (10.12.10)
They are not well taken care of! they give them one leg and through them back to realtiy, no follow up, no rehabilitation. Misrad Ha Bitachon does not do anything for them. I know from experiance. Shame on you to say he is lucky.
