1. NONSENSE! ISRAEL BOMBING EMPTY STRUCTURES AFTER WARNINGS!
GET REAL ,   USA   (12.31.08)
2. BUY SYRINGES NOT ROCKETS
..............DACON9   (12.31.08)
3. I simply don't get it
M Cormier ,   Paris France   (12.31.08)
Why the Hamas shots rockets? What do they expect? Strange people.
4. idf should take control of shifa hospital

5. Medical emergency in Gaza
Josef L Klein ,   Canada   (12.31.08)
Strange that though he claims to be so busy saving lives, Dr. Hassan Khaled has lots of time for propaganda speeches!
6. Pity you didn't warn your leaders first.
Arn ,   Yehud, Israel   (12.31.08)
"When Qassams land in Israel, the death toll reaches maybe two or three Israelis. But your response is 100 tons of bombs. Never mind the obvious reply to this stupidity. I just think - would there be any Jews left alive if it was Jews populating Gaza and Hamas had the planes? Answer that good doctor.
7. The Immutable Law Of Logical Consequences!
Yonatan ,   Nahariya   (12.31.08)
Where is the media recognition of the plight of Jewish residents near Gaza who for years have suffered the real fear of artillery fire emanating from Gaza? People killed, maimed and physiologically scared by the murderous hordes who tempted the IDF almost daily for seven years. Now we have an answer to the real war and the world aims its Jew hatred again at the Jews of Israel for defending itself. The world will continue to condemn Jews for killing the gazan Jew killers but finally we are administering reciprocity and the logical consequences for the multiple thousands of rockets Israel has endured.
8. I am very glad to hear tha Israel is refusing to take the wo
jsm   (12.31.08)
But suprised that the Gazans have the nerve to ask.
9. More Indication of Hamas' Priorities
emanon ,   USA   (12.31.08)
Yep, spent their money on weapons, not on medicine. Hamas could not care less about life, only death.
10. Who believe what they say , they lie with a smile
rachel ,   usa   (12.31.08)
11. Would You Like Cheese With That Whine?
USABorn   (12.31.08)
People are dying because of Hamas. Palestinians in Gaza support Hamas and the continuous launch of bombs into Israel. It is a no brainer Hamas. People are getting tired of you playing the victims while lobbing bombs into Israel.
12. Oh what a pity, Go tell papa Kofi or Ban Ki moon
Zohan ,   Tel Aviv   (12.31.08)
13. Israelis & Palestinians are the same kind
D.R. ,   Poland   (12.31.08)
Both nations are religious fanatics and both are ready to murder for their own understanding of "God's will". I'd say that both sides belong to the same culture, and genetic pool is also probably shared. I'm indifferent to this war. I just don't want innocent people to die, no matter Jews, Palestinians or whoever else. But because of the cultural similarities it doesn't matter for me who will own the land of Israel: Israelis or Palestinians. They are just the same.
14. Yep it don't pay to elect terrorist to rule you , huh?
Not buying it ,   quit crying   (12.31.08)
15. Dr. Khaled full of crap
Natan   (12.31.08)
Hamas was able to smuggle hundreds and thousands of pieces of warfare materials, missiles, parts, rifles, ammunition etc. They "forgot" the medicine.. See, no medicine or shortage of medical supply makes very good PR. Here in the US we just don't buy it!!! Palis in Gaza: YOU MADE THE BED. YOU SLEEP IN IT!!!
16. Holy S**T, the posters here are paranoid, delusional!
CheezeBox ,   USA   (12.31.08)
Listen to yourselves, pathetic!
17. gaza doctor
(12.31.08)
you say lack of equipment???/ sell some kasams on the black market.
18. israel-vs-palestine.com
jowo ,   sweden   (12.31.08)
There is an independent international website created to express our opinion on recent events in Gaza. I strongly advice to vote and support our country there for everyone! israel-vs-palestine.com
19. when a hamas terrorist comes in and a little child comes in
Avi ,   New York, NY   (12.31.08)
to the hospital, who do they give the IV to firs?
20. What happened to the BILLIONS handed to them?
Daniel ,   Tel Aviv   (12.31.08)
Palestinians have been given the most money of any group in the world! They are constantly getting handouts. What happened to all that money? Gazan doctors are crying about the lack of equipment, but medicine, and humanitarian aid have been admitted to Gaza...or were they replaced with bomb making materials? We saw that with sugar and flour. Perhaps if the Gazans chose NOT to send rockets into Israel they might receive actual medicines and equipment.
21. WHY IS YNET PLAYING THE GAME OF HAMAS
Jorge ,   Tegucigalpa   (12.31.08)
Isnt enough to have BBC and CNN blabering all day about that propaganda for the terror groups. Why is it that Israeli press plays their game, have you ever seen Arab or Muslim press talking about how bad is for Hamas to fire on Israeli civilians on a daily basis, or condemning the open expectation of Hamas to wipe Israel and Jews from the face of the earth,/ sometimes I wonder if people who run the press in Israel have some kind of mental problems
22. hamass had money for rockets and the citizens of gaza
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (12.31.08)
elected hamass. If there are no bandages it is because hamass bought rocket materials instead of medical equipment, it is the fault of the voters of gaza, no one else.
23. "lack of equipment"
Arie ,   BaGolan   (12.31.08)
Each qassam costs approx. US$2500; Each grad costs from US$20000 to US$50000;a smuggled AK-47 US$2500 to US$4000; payments made for martyrs' families by saudi arabia US$25000; a container of penicillin? PRICELESS. That is of course unless the palis finally recognized peace as the main objective, rather then another attempt to massacre the Jews. THEN, we could probably find a Jewish philanthropy that would give for free all the equipment a good ER requires. Doubt it will happen though - the palis don't see peace as a viable option
24. so what-who started it?
Mark Katzman ,   San Francisco, USA   (12.31.08)
I'm curious-correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not) but the US and G Britain wasn't worried one bit whether German or Japanese doctors were handling the crisis which they brought on themselves. Only in the insane leftist world of today do people worry over victims who initiate a war.
25. Only in Israel do we have this kind of reporting. GO AWAY!
Adam Eliyahu Berkowi   (12.31.08)
If a country goes to war, especially if the enemy (By the way, Palestinians are the enemy) has been shelling civilian centers, the press would never write such garbage. The whole point is to inflict suffering and damage and to destroy the enemiy's capabilities in order tochange the situation. Palestinian suffering is tragic, buit necessary. And let's face it, they certainly pushed Israel to the wall. If our immoral politicians and their delusional left wing constituents were in any way normal, this war would have happened long ago and would not be nearly so severe.
26. If it is only Hamas we are war with,
robin ,   israel   (12.31.08)
then we should at least take out the sick and treat them in our hospitals. The problem is Hamas might use that as an opportunity to ship more arms, or disguise a suicide bomber as one of the sick. That has always been the problem.
27. #16
Nash ,   UK   (12.31.08)
Absolutely true. Bloodthirsty and vile. 100 times worse than Hamas
28. #16
François ,   Montréal   (12.31.08)
Don't be discouraged, 90% of all posters on ynet are of this nature. Hate literature.
29. The solution to the misery of the population.
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (12.31.08)
Instead of counting the daily dead and injured Arab as a result of the terrorist war they declared on Israel, it would be wiser for the Arabs to abandon politics and terrorism, and search for a better future for themselves and their children, to choose well-being instead of politics and understand that a “Palestinian state” is not the solution to their misery. Huge amounts have already been paid by the international community in order to help these people but the only beneficiary were the Arab politiciens. Even if there will be a “Palestinian state” the conditions of the population will not improve. The solution to their misery is elsewere : they should think about emigrating, discretely, to other Arab countries before it is too late, (most of these countries are not very populated and can easily integrate them). That is the real solution as explained at : http://xrl.us/bi5c8

It is obvious you have little understanding of Judaism and Islam and their differences. I 'd have no problem with your opinion, were it based on research or knowledge. If it were though, it would probably be very different. Opinions formed from lack of knowledge are an insult to its owner, not really worth much and are redundent. Too bad. Why does the Hamas shoot rockets? Why don't they use alltheir mony for good things like food, fuel and medicine? Do you know how much it costs to get and shoot each rocket? It is crazy! They could've built an empire instead.
