Enough of this silly talk of "creative solutions". Honestly The violence, blood, and turrmoil are unavoidable. Why delay any longer, and allow the Gaza folk to have it on their terms? Strike, and scrub hard!

I'll tell you the truth, I just briefly skim over this crap - it's not worth reading the same BS day after day, incident after incident. If we don't get rid of morons like Vilnai & the rest of his ilk, this country has no future.

do it already, you should have months ago. Let THEM be the ones to get hit not Israelis. Olmert's nearly gone and you MUST protect Israelis. G-d knows he didn't.

Israel must, must cease supplying the Gaza Strip with electricity, petrol, money notes, building materials, food and water. Let their Arab brothers next door in Egypt assist them. We have no obligation to assist those who aim at the mass murder of our children. No other country would do so and Israel must stop doing so as well, now!!!

The once powerful and undefeated isral are now reduced to talking empty threats asnd we know why. When the crook Olmert met with his boss in Washington he was forewarned not to do anything agaonst Hamas or Hizbollah. Of course Israel is willing to obey her masters ans this is why Hamas is not defeated and Israel has become a joke,a nation of slaves obedient to her masters in Washington.

Palestinians may continue to lament the division of Palestine initially at 55% now nearing 90%; However, they have no choice over the existence of Israel. Israel is a giant WWII memorial complemented by a millenia Jewish yearning. I'm sure some of your neighbors on your street doesn't like you either, but so what? Either annex the lands as Judea and Samaria or wash the territories off Israeli hands. To be sure, the occupation only detracts from Israel and hues her in a negative light. What does it matter if Hamas doesn't recognize Israel? Israel exist! It is not going anywhere--holy providence and the dilligence of the Jews have seen to that. Besides, this insistence of a "hollow" recognition is merely semantical in that it adds nothing to Israel. Either relinquish the land or annex it.

Vilni Another bullshitting cringing groveling coward.Flapping lies will not end kassams.Israeli injured SO WHAT they are only jewish soldiers.Like the cowardly non defence minister vilni follows his boss.He has to evict children at night and now they injured his big henchmen. When will the pride of the past return to israel.AFTER ANOTHER HOLOCAST/

Because of men like vilnai,but now I realise it was by miracles.

Will Barak, Olmert, Vilnai and co's unforgivable weakness and indecision give the soldier his leg back. How many more have to suffer for a "truce" that never was nor a "peace" that never will be until we have eradicated the likes of Hamas and co

We haven't forgotten vilnai's condemnation of Negev residents for "whining so much." Now that an election is near, he speaks of "their bravery" and the "impending major action." The ONLY major action will occur on 10 February when they are evicted from the Knesset!

The 1%ers have been claiming this for over a year! In the meantime, the residents of the Negev are subjected to the continual terrorism. It may just be time to declare Marshall Law and let Tzahal take care of business!

Great, now why don't you just tell them the time and the day.

The Left is incompetent and has failed on all security issues.

I thought we have an already long lasting Gaza op in progress , made up out of of inflated ego's , flapping their gums with empty threats , boring all of us including our Pally friends to death. I just hope that they do not send in the IDF at the hands of these incompetent fools , because we will not sucseed in anything at this time and no life is worth it to be lost, without a clear objective. Right now we are at the hands of people who like to loose and it shows.

The Western world under attack, bla, bla, bla Israel under siege, bla, bla, bla And our government is busy just flapping their lips. Bla. Bla. Bla

barak...go ahead ...knock this chip off my shoulder...(he backs up)...now i dare you...cross this line...(backs up)

Whose head would be be best for a Ritz Paz Commercial?

Very Idle Language Not Assisting Israel.

Who's going to pay for a full scale attack on Gaza? Oh, that's right the American taxpayer. If only they knew where their tax dollars were going.

about all the muslims who had visions of Yeshua and left islam and converted to Christianity. A lot of Kuwaitis have also been converting lately.

Hamas's refusal to even pretend that it is willing to live at peace with Israel is what distinguishes it from Fatah. And the Palestinians' embrace of Hamas after Israel withdrew from Gaza demonstrated that the withdrawal increased the popularity of the prospect of continuous war against Israel among the Palestinians. There should be no truce with Hamas and the pressure should remain heavy. Israel should make no concessions : You do not talk to terrorists, you fight and defeat them.

And I am nearly a millionaire.I just need another $999,999 and I'm done.

Sharp shooters are your best option for eliminating the 'problems' without creating more than you started with. If you killed my family with careless air strikes, I would be a terrorists too. Just remember, you can not bomb the hate out of people, you can only bomb it into them.

don`t worry THE ANTI-CHRIST JAVIER SOLANA OF GLOBAL UNION is coming to power just over 4 years from now according to the HISTORY CHANNEL : THE END OF THE WORLD, although according to Dr. Jack Van Impe it`s THE RAPTURE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH by 12/21/2012 !

The timing would have been perfect if carried out while the Mumbai operation was going on. The world was on our side on the one hand and focused on the Arab/Moslem terror on the other hand. Our fighting terror in our backyards (Qassams and attack on soldiers) would have aligned us with the global fight against terror while still being in the shadows of Mumbai operation. Our efficiency and accomplishments would look better when compared to the NSG (my hat is off to the NSG but they must learn the lessons and improve their readiness). Saddat used his tactical advantage in the timing of the Yom Kippur War. Don't we have any other brilliant strategists left after Arik suffered his stroke. Oh G-d of Wisdom and Mercy why couldn't you give Olmert that stroke and keep Arik safe and strong to protect us?

When you look at at the components in your computer, medical equipment, and other technologies all around you that were developed in Israel, you are contributing amazing sums to help support our fight against terrorism and we really thank you for all that money
