61. #13, yeah they are not hiding
Danny   (12.30.08)
look at Haniyeh and deif wandering around boosting their troops.
62. Fight like men?
Joseph ,   Florida   (12.30.08)
I suppose a true man straps a bomb to himself, walks into a crowded eatery with innocent civilians and blows himself and everybody up. That's a sick coward in my book!
63. Women hiding behind masks and killing children for spite.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (12.30.08)
Bomb them into oblivion. I wouldn't send troops in. I'd just keep incessantly bombing their buildings. Let them experience running into bomb shelters every minute of the day, like the Israeli's have had to do because of their terrorist rocket fire into Israel every day of the week. To hell with Hamas and their supporters in Gaza.
64. Mark #32 What makes you think IDF will come on the ground?
GZLives   (12.30.08)
Maybe by air or by sea or all three simultaneously but whatever is expected will not be what ultimately happens. The problem with the Islamists is they begin to believe their own BS ... Hamas is finished and if there are thousands of new recruit, they too will die but I suspect when the IDF come knocking, they will quickly hide their ski masks and forget about their terrorist aspirations. This time unlike 2006, the Islamists will be finished.
65. What hamas means...
Mei1 ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.30.08)
Hamas made a typo. they meant to say FIGHT WITH MEN. Israel don't just attack us cowards shooting rockets at israeli civillians. Fight With Iran And The supporters of our terorism Men not cowards!!!!
66. hi there
unknown ,   unknown   (12.30.08)

67. manly
philip   (12.30.08)
Hamas hides amongst civilians. Yoiu want us to come to your dirty tactics from filthy iran. We will come when we want to, in the way we want to. We will be bringing arab shields with their mouths taped and you will see them first. You better run away from your bunkers ,because we are going to nuke the whole area. You will die in your bunkers. Run out, flee, now is your chance.
68. #26
(12.30.08)
you see, this is where you are worng. look at the history of all the wars the arab fanatic regimes and countries started with israel....1948, 1956, 1967, 1972, 1982, 2006 and now, for 8 years they have lobbed kassams at our cities and villages in the amount of 8,000 making life in the south unbearable for children and their parents. life can never be normal under these conditions and you know it. you won't ever let someone lobe anything at your family for 8 long years without responding to this injustice. now, let's talk about the wars i mentioned above and the f-16 and military equipment. for your information during 1948, 1956 and on till 1973, the arab armies well 100% better equi[ped than osrael at any time. both in armor, in tanks and most definitaly in war jets and planes. they all got this top notch stuff from europe and the ussr military. not only that, but ussr advisors and pilots trained these arab armies to function and to use the planes and equipment. russian pilots even flew their migs during the 1967 war against israeli pilots instead of arab pilots in the cock pit. (bet you didn't know this). also ussr technical personnel worked hand in hand with the arab artillary on the battle field during wars with israel. we found doccuments and captured russian peronnel as war casualties when we won the wars. anyway, israel never got any military equipment from the usa until after the end og the 1973 war. YET, WITHOUT ANY USA ADVISORS, USA PILOTS, USA MILITARY MIGHT AND USA COMBAT PERSONNEL EMBEDDED INTO THE ISRAELI ARMY....WE STILL WON ALL THE WARS. you see, it is not the equipment. it is the person and the brain behind it. somple as that. no matter what equipment you give arabs, they simply can't master the task of winning. DO YOU KNOW WHY??? because the common arab soldier has nothing to fight for and nothing to protect and doesn't fight for survival...they fight because they hate. that is the singular emotion that brings them together. it is not fighting for their country, for their citizens, for the well being of their nation, for their survival. it is fighting for pure hate. hate is never a motivator when one's life is on the line. this is why israelis found many egyptian army boots in the sinai desert in 1967. the egyptian army fled! you see, you can give the arabs all the top notch equipment and they still can't win. they are too erratic, too emotional, too conflicted and too scared. they are afraid to die....do not believe them when they say martyrdom is desired. most don't desire it. most of those ending as martyrs are the mentally challenged and emotionally troubled and can be used as bob fodder by the likes of haniyeh and mashaal. you need to live in the middle east to understand all this. you look at all this in a rational way. but these people are not rational. they are so consumed with generational hate from millenia against the jews that they can't fathom a jewish nation in an arab surrounding. it goes against their pride, against their kuran and against their manhood. above that, israel is the singular democracy in the region and the arab regimes are scared stiff that their own citizenry will look at our way of life and demand it for themselves. this is why you see autocracy, propaganda, lies, hiding truths and facts, brainwashing by media, oppression of press and research of the truth. these regimes vilify everything that is decent, modern and democratic because they do not want to give up the oppressive throne. i can guarantee you that if they let their citizens travel to israel, many will seek immediate asylum in our country. this is what 8,000 israeli arabs in the west bank and jerusalem did when abas was ready to create the future palestinian state in gaza, west bank and half jerusalem. they rushed to the israeli embassy in jerusalem and DEMANDED israeli citizenships.
69. Hear oh israel
tiffy ,   riv . ca.   (12.30.08)
I love israel! No matter what happens the tora talks about war, so the true god will soon deliver them that live rightiously in his eyes. so we should not worry about dieing,but him you has to power to send our spirt to heaven or hell!
70. real men provide peace and comfort for their families
real vision ,   usa   (12.30.08)
All hamas has ever done is bring misery to every person who has ever been in contact...whether Palestinian or israeli. They offer nothing to the gazan population except MORE MISERY. Wake up gazans and eliminate hamas
71. if Pals fought like men,
YOEL ,   Israel   (12.30.08)
they would have never sent their children in front, and use them as human shields + propaganda.... I don't mind of what they say, I believe only in our brave Tsahal soldiers. עם ישראל חי
72. We should get our women pilots to bomb them.
Avinoam ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (12.30.08)
Chauvinist morons. They have the philosophy of a school-yard bully.
73. Hamas is not satisfied with present situation!
Yaroslav ,   Ukraine   (12.30.08)
IDF should not listen to these provocative calls! Go according to your own scenario and may God Almighty, God of Israel bless and protect you all!
74. The More You Murder Our Children .. the More
R Hitchings ,   Methil   (12.30.08)
We Know You Fear us.... This is not Hamas Propaganda... We Know how much the Jewish stomach turns with apprehension at what awaits when they get within shooting range of Hamas .. Lets Face it ... what has a Palestinian got left to Loose. I pray that they can take one IDF man with them before they go.
75. carol@majoruproar.com
Carol Potter ,   TEXAS! United States   (12.30.08)
Israel. You are right to give hamas the war they ask for. Fight them as in their words "to the last drop of blood". May God be with you and DO NOT give in. hamas is just asking for it and they deserve it. NO cease fire. mullahs in Iran should be next. Peace in the middle east is only possible when the likes of hamas, al queda, and hezbolla, Sharia law etc. are eliminated. PERMANENTLY. Israel. You are great.
76. Sissy Terrorists..This isn't Lebanon
Craig ,   USA   (12.30.08)
Israel doesn't have their hands tied behind their backs this time. Why don't you sissy-men crawl out of your tunnels - you do all want to be martyrs anyway, right? You shame Allah by targeting civilians and then hiding underground and among women. The land belongs to the Jews...you so-called Palestinians are the squatters, the ursupers. In relatively short order, the Jewish Messiah will come and defeat all who hate the Jews.. It isn't too late if you Islamics will repent of your wicked ways...do so before it is too late for you. Just when you think Israel is about to be destroyed, your 'victory' will be snatched from you and turned to utter annihalation. Give ear to the 'two witnesses' coming soon...repent as they say and you will have salvation, resist and you will be destroyed.
77. Their way of "fighting like men".
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.30.08)
The key problem to be addressed is the way in which terrorists exploit their own civilians, forcing them against their will to serve as human shields or obtaining their agreement to serve as such. When human shields are used, those who agree to be used are combatants, and have chosen to die. As far as involuntary human shields are concerned, the terrorists are to blame for every civilian who is killed. As to the methods of the terrorists : http://xrl.us/bi9r6
78. Hey guys, don't you know why they phrased it "fight like men
Vered, Israel   (12.30.08)
The only thing the Arabs are good at, other than killing, hating, saber-rattling and whining, is PR. They always co-opt what they do, or is said against them, to us. Such as, every bit of self-defense on our part is their "Holocaust", "Israel only responds to force (how many time has that been said about the Arabs), we have no partner for peace, we, too, have a "diaspora", Israel commits international war crimes, and now, this : Fight like men! The fact that they can say any of this with a straight face is laughable, but especially the "fight like men" challenge! Real men don't fire rockets at kindergartens. Real men protect their families and don't pick a fight with a superior enemy so their own children are traumatized beyond description. Real men don't hide in UN ambulances. Real men don't destroy their own economy so that they can have the "last word", like spoiled children who won't give an inch. If they wanted to BE real men (earn a living, improve your lives, stop living on handouts from the world) instead of pretending to fight like them, we'd have a real, lasting peace. But, no, we live next to honor-crazed children.
79. Comments on hiding behind women
Ahmed   (12.30.08)
I dont get it. Is this some kind of game where you try to say something so many times that it becomes true? Israelis are SO afraid of palestinians they wouldnt dare come closer than 30,000 feet, or under the protection of heavy tanks. WE KNOW the palestinians come out with their Tshirts to throw stones at your tanked up troops. WE KNOW that the israeli army used palestinian children as human shields. I LIVED IN LEBANON my entire childhood, and as MANY times as israel says hezbollah use us as human shields, I KNOW how many operations they cancel because a family happens to be strolling near by. I KNOW how they guard our houses and throw themselves into live fire to give us minutes to get away. Our holy Quran is so specific in its descriptions of Israel and one of the strongest components of my faith in my religion is the accuracy of your descriptions. of your arrogance. of your lies. GO.. convince 6 billion people in the world that our men hide behind women, we dont care. WE KNOW. but more enjoyable than that for us.. is that YOU know too :) Arab israeli wars end because israeli society collapses when a few houses are hit by missiles. But even as a child, we'd sit and drink tea while your atomic sized bombs wipe out cities. its not that we love death, as you so eloquently love to paint, its more that we choose death over a life dictated on your terms. from all the lands on earth, you sure picked the wrong people, if you were hoping that a military excursion woud make is bow in submission.. we submit to God, nobody else.. and as for your friends mubarak and hussein and the saudi royal family.. their end is very near indeed.. followed shortly by yours. im a millionaire im a millionaire im a millionaire... hmmm.. saying it a lot DOESNT make it true.. u might want to learn from that
80. Hamas terrorists escaped the Israeli seige in Beit Hanoun In
meir elazar   (12.30.08)
Didn't the Hamas terrorist escape the Israeli seige in Beit Hanoun last year after 19 hours by putting on padded bras, high heels, women's dresses, and far too much mascarra? Yes please show us how you fight like men with padded bras.
81. Hamas is right, Israel should fight on the ground.
David ,   Madrid, Spain   (12.30.08)
Israelies are cowards who are killing women and children. It's called a coward war since you hit them and their families with your planes. If this was a fair fight, they will prevail because they are right and you are wrong and God, yours and theirs will punish you in hell for all the suffering and misery you brought on them. Israelis are full of hate and revenge and the day justice will prevail is coming.
82. #79 Lull yourself into denial
Cynthia ,   USA   (12.30.08)
We witnessed Hizbullah ambush and murder Israeli soldiers on routine patrol on Israel's side of an internationally recognized border in 7/06. Then watched Hizbullah immediately launch 200-300 missiles per day at civilian populations in Israel so they could pound their chests and show their Iranian masters they could follow orders and destroy Israel. Hizbullah launched the missiles from within civilian populations endangering civilians. Hizbullah's ruthless attack caused the death of 1200 Lebanese and 160 Israelis leaving mass destruction in Lebanon and Israel. The purpose of this senseless war was to secure the release of a child killer and forcibly show Israel they are not welcome in the neighborhood because the local bullies cannot tolerate them. And from your post we can see it's not only Israel you cannot tolerate. The goal of terror groups is to conquer and control.
83.  PRC spokesman urges IDF troops to 'fight like men'
Michael ,   Howard Beach USA   (12.30.08)
Only a coward with no regard for human life uses human shields (woman and children), to hide behind and shoot rockets at innocent civilians. That's the basic difference between Jews and you Hamas pigs and supporters around the world. You have no regard for life. Not even for your own people. Again you brought this on yourselves, (there was a truce that you did not want), and you will pay the price for your terrorism on innocent people. Amazing now much backlash Israel gets for defending it's civilians from radical maniacs.
84. Yes, let's all fight exactly like "Muslim Warriors"!
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (12.30.08)
Let's BOMB THEIR CIVILIANS without any kind of targeting. Let's launch mortars into heavily populated areas. Let's plant bombs around their homes. Let's shoot their civilians working their fields! Let's all hide behind civilian human shields while doing so! And when they retaliate, let's all hide in ratholes and moan and whine and call the BBC, CNN, Aj-Jazeera and our brothers to stop the 'vicious attacks' and 'atrocities'. Yes, I guess that PRC and Hamas have the perfect description of "fighting like men". Muslims have no notion of "fighting like men". They only know murder when it's easy and running, whining like dogs and hiding like rats when it's tough. They really epitomize the historical and well-documented Muslim cowardice!
85. fight like men??? fighting with our brains is better.
mira ,   israel   (12.30.08)
israel do not fall into this nonsense. we must fight with our brains and use our mighty air force. no soldier should die for this evil entity called hamas.
86. March March, Let us see your boots on the land!
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (12.30.08)
87. Is that torn woman's underwear you have on your head ?
Alan ,   SA   (12.30.08)
Did you find it in the womans bedroom where you were hiding?
88. My army against your army on the battlefield.
harry lavoe ,   orange county ca   (12.30.08)
My army against your army on the battlefield now roll them out come meet us. Stop hiding in your apartments behind your women and kids. After raise the white flag like all other honorable nations Modern guerrilla warfare are common greedy thieves not looking to better their people. Typical wife beater mentality. Your supposed brave men will not show up. Come on attack the border with ground troops. I beg you 70 virgin await.
89. IDF should fight as though Hamas' men are expendable.
Ilan ,   Ariel   (12.30.08)
Better a thousand of them should die before any IDF soldier is hurt. We have no 'extras' and in any case they want to die as Shahidim. They'll get to where their going whether their death comes from the sky or from a rifle.
90. 5 main rules of fighting like a man ala Hamas.
Mary ,   UK   (12.30.08)
1. Put on hat with holes in it , so no one see your face ( sunglasses will add more courage too) Never put proper uniform , it will make you too noticable to target and also you won't be able quickly change side when it's needed. 2. Have a good stock of children with you incase you will need life shield or propaganda fabrication . Women will do too but they not as good as children... Important! do not use same kid all the time on tv or other news . ( refering to famous iraqi-lebanese and now palestine (same old one)wounded girl picture ) 3. Now that you were brainwashed that u will get lots of virgins ( like...what the poor virgins done to deserve this...) if you die bravely blowing yourself up with bus of innocent people , make sure that ur nervious fingers don't trigger ur little stupiside bomb in middle of nowhere or you will get 5 vigrins less! 4. Find some good location to observe and where nobody sees you , so you could jump out and surprise enemie (heck with it just sit there and shoot time to time) If you out of weaponry just take the mask off and pretend to be civilian.(see #1) 5.Always make sure you have somewhere to run...err I mean back up plan.
