1. Demand immediate Schalit release or turn gaza to rubble
bernard ross ,   st anns bay jamaica   (12.29.08)
The govt should not be allowed to make a cease fire without this in the same way they abandoned the kidnapped soldiers of lebanon. Inform the world that there will be no tlak until his release.
2. bagdad bob all over again
david ,   new york   (12.29.08)
only 10 hamas operative killed, right i believe that! (not) actually, about 85% of those killed so far were hamas. i don't know many armies that have had such a good rate, especially in an urban area. and BTW: when you make up a lie, please check first with what the other hamas people are saying because when your own organization contradicts you,it makes you look pretty stupid mr. bagdad bob
3. Keep up the great work IAF!!
Freejew2U ,   Israel   (12.29.08)
4. Aces up the sleeve.
harry lavoe ,   orange county ca   (12.29.08)
Those supposed aces up your sleeve is what got you and your people in trouble to begin with. Screwed the pooch
5. gaza
av ,   london uk   (12.29.08)
KEEP UPTHE GOOD WORK
6. Oh NO ! What a loss to humanity!!!
Shira   (12.29.08)
Free Shalit NOW !!!
7. It's time to hit back hard.
David Powell ,   Everett, Wa. DPRSSA   (12.29.08)
The Israelis have had enough rocket attacks from Hamas in Gaza. Go get em until they are eleminated.
8. They may have an ace up the sleeve,
jason white ,   afula,israel   (12.29.08)
but they will get a missile up the anus. Only totally exterminating the terrorists and crushing the spirit of the palis will help.
9. Funny, when they want an exchange the math is diffrent
Eric ,   Tel Aviv   (12.29.08)
It amazes me that when Hamas wants to talk about a prisoner swap they like the math of 1 Israeli = 1000 Palestinians. But when Israel uses the same math ( 1 Israeli killed by a missile = 1000 Hamas members killed by missiles) they are not happy. Can't they be consistent?
10. What Ground Offensive? Not Gonna Happen
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (12.29.08)
Hamas/Jihad is busily preparing for a ground assault that may not even happen. Notice how desperate they are to capture another Gilad Shalit - claiming this would make up for the destruction. Why even give them the opportunity? Israel did a masterful job spewing misinformation prior to the surprise attack and they may be doing the same thing regarding an armed assault, call-up of reservists, etc. Why jeopardize Israeli soldiers when Israel has been so effective from the air? This is like Kosovo and imagine how demoralizing it will be for the terrorists when Israel doesn't invade and suffers no combatant deaths?
11. retaliation on hamas.
jimmy mckinlay ,   israel   (12.29.08)
i am sick and tired of listening to some parts of the media calling for a halt to the I.D.F. operation to save jewish life. It will end when the fat lady dance's , barrak obama say's we have the right to protect ourself. i also heard an expert on international law,talking on al jezera.he said 'when you are being attacked you dont wait for the knife to penitrate your heart before you take action. I REST MY CASE.
12. no ceasefires on Hamas terms
zionist forever   (12.29.08)
We have made the plans to kidnap soilders viable becase we are willing to release Kuntar for corpses and up to 1000+ for Gilad. As much as we want these people back no one man is worth the security of the majority. If we were not willing to pay these sort of prices for soilders then they wouldnt be taken. There can be no ceasefires unless its on Israels terms. If this regime agrees to any truce that doesn't involve the unconditional relelase of Gilad Shalit then it will have failed him and proven to the whole country that giving into public preasure and carry out some air raids is not enough to be reelected. Unconditional release of Gilad, end to all rocket attacks permenantly not a six month hudna and recognition of Israel. Not another hudna based on the same terms Hamas were offering before, the hundreds of rocket fired over the last 2 weeks has made any deals on their terms unacceptable.
13. why wait till now
enough is enough ,   NY USA   (12.29.08)
its about the the israeli's did something they should just finish them off once and for all.... the only thing that i am bothered is why they waited so long now that hamas got stronger over the last 2 yrs and especially with the recent so called cease-fire i cant stand all the leftists that are saying oh my god innocent children and women what about the innocent israelis of course no one mentions them they gave them the wesst bank they gave up gaza which was a multi multi million dollar greenhouse they left them with beautifl grounds and what do they do they turn it in to a rocket launching gathering thats it we gave those animals enough now we just need to finish them off and let those israelis enjoy life once again
14. Talk, Talk, Talk,
Jewish Refugee ,   U.S.A.   (12.29.08)
Hamas and other terrorist organizations always throw away empty threats and no action follow those threats. For all I know if they still able to speak, we should not send them any humanitarian goods until the last thing that they can do is breath. So IDF can easily and safely finish its job. http://israelactnow.blogspot.com/
15. iran is ready to receive all palestinians wounded
fm hassan qashqavi ,   of iran says:   (12.29.08)
by israel. this from him as of sunday december 28th. according to reuters uk. its about time a muslim country wanted to take care of their own instead of expecting israel to take care of them. israel please see to this immediately before he has a chance to change his mind ?
16. Anybody still think we don't need the defensive wall?
Bennie ,   Jerusalem   (12.29.08)
Pal terrorists will still probably be able to slip through some car bombs or homicide bombers from the West Bank, but will have to work harder to do it.
17. Words of desperation from Hamas
Eric ,   Montreal   (12.29.08)
"We'll kidnap soldiers, and it will equal all of this destruction," he told Ynet. These are words of desperation. Hamas's end is near. Go ahead Israel finish the job and rid the world of this vermin. The civilized world is with you in your fight.
18. Please send of note of condolence to the leftist professors
eliezer ,   haifa   (12.29.08)
Please send of note of condolence to the Israeli leftist professors who support and adore the Hamas.
19. Media Biased (Ignore the Usual Suspects)
Rick ,   Milwaukee, USA   (12.29.08)
Now comes the outcry! MEdia images flooding the TV screens around the world. Where was the outcry when Sredot & Ashkelon were pummeled continually by rockets? Where was the UN cry against Hamas? Hamas, you deserve every ounce of destruction you get and I hope you get more of it which comes to you.
20. Attacks on Gaza terrorists
Stephen ,   Tennessee, USA   (12.30.08)
I see many articles condemning Israel... pay them no mind, you have much support, the media is just very biased. Prayers go up for Israel, and God has made a covenant with Isreal that will not be broken.
21. #15, you can have the others too
