We all face an existence matter. Israel's terrorist enemies are also enemies of the US.

who said that the Palestinians do not accept coexistence !! is that what this war is all about you morons ?!! let the 6 million refugee you kicked out from their homes and land back to their homes, merge them with your Jewish citizen , coexist with them , leave the west bank and take out your stinky settlements and I'm sure that Hamas will stop firing these rockets, they will run for the Knesset even. you kick someone from his house, you kill his children , you take away his land and then act surprisingly stupid asking : why are they shooting at us ?!!

You think you can start a war whenever yout want and end it whenever you want, the other party has to decide too. Now...what can you do? nothing..you have used all the power you have without solution. I suggest you surrender

Hamas is well known for its cruelty to its own people. It tortures anyone who doesn't do as they say. Everything is written in the bible and they should know Israel is here for ever and ever!

With someone writing this kind off rubbish , it is understandable why we have this kind of jerks sitting in the knesset. Shlomo would do us all a favor and move to Gaza to show us how much coexistence Hamas wants with the Jews. It is hard to believe that someone can be so deeple moronic and has so little grip on reality , most likely your name is not Shlomo . If it is you are a total lost cause , who does not understand that in the eyes off our friendly Islamfacists you are a stinking settler no matter were you live in Israel.

Israel appears keen to halt Gaza hostilities before Barack Obama is sworn in as U.S. president on Tuesday, to avoid clouding a historic day for its main ally. Israelis mostly back the war, but much of the world wants the bloodshed to stop'. So Israel suffers from a lack of leadership and an over abundance of serial panderers. They are more concerned about a far away land and it inaguration spectacle than they are protecting their citizens. They pander early for the new worthless king of babylon. The leadership has become too tired to win and can only grasp at a useless ceasefire which gives Hamas the open door to rearm and fight another day. The darling idiot Livni raced to her masters in Washington for more worthless paper and empty promises to comfort Israel with. My how the idol worshipers have such great faith in their useless idols even after the 100% record of failure starting with Oslo,Wye,Tenant,Mitchell,Zinni,Aquaba,Sharm El Sheikh ,Road Map,ect failures ect. They have great faith in their useless idols to deliver Israel. The concept of victory,defeating Hamas in Gaza is no longer a goal with the losers of Kadima and Labor. They choose another failure for Israel. The stupid leadership think that after many years of Egypt assisting Hamas in smuggling weapons into Gaza that anything wil change now with a worthless ceasefire. It was not possible for Hamas to smuggle in Grads and Katushya's without Egypts help. Now you will trust the wolf Egypt ? Israel ,the peace is killing you. It used to be that an ounce of pervention was worth a pound of cure but with Israel the fantasy truce and ceasefire has replaced both. Not too long ago Israel understood the importance of defeating those who threatened it's existence. The new Israel has degenerated under the U.S. led counterfeit peace scam to a nation which can only snatch defeat from the jaws of victory as we see the clowns Barak and Livni press for failure once again. Once again no goals met , no Gilead Shalit but an emboldened and no where near defeated Hamas understanding Israel's weak and fearful state. I am sure Kadima and Labor will dance around and call it another victory for Israel as the Kassems,Katushya,Grads and Fajhr rockets rain down on Tel Aviv and Jerusalem only days after their great diplomatic success of an agreement with pathological liars Hamas and the wolf Egypt.. All of this incompetence,defeatism,weakness and stupidity at the highest level make it sure that Israel will have to engage her last stand Sampson Option in the very near futute so that never again really means never again.

And this is the "achievement of Olmerts, Barak and Livn's Goals" ?

That's a helluva ceasefire y'all got going there. Nice to know there are no firing of Kassams or Grads or mortars or sniping an stuff. . Oh. By the way. I hate to ask, but,...was'nt there some kid soldier kidnapped a while back? Gilad? Yeah. That was his name. Ever get him back?

The same stupid leaders then we should get the same result , why should it be different.... Olmert and Livni were there, and barak which is not very different then peretz. The problem is that I can't see any leader that can lead our country to a victory, and I began to be afraid on the future of my children and their existence in this country.

The "Day of the Great Chicken Massacre" It should be a national commemoration day in Israel!! ^^

YOU SUGGEST WE SURRENDER? WELL I SUGGEST YOU KILL YOURSELF...

If they are starving there is a very simple solution: open the border between Egypt and Gaza! If Mubarak can one day give Hamas rockets, and the next day give Israel intelligence to bomb Hamas, I am certain he can also let food enter through Rafiah.

Post # 5.: I wish that those, who condemn Israel for defending its citizens, would come up with a reasonable solution that will avtually result in the other side stopping trying to kill everyone in site. " Easy answer: END THE OCCUPATION Firstly by withdrawing from 1967 all occupied Palestine, including Gaza. Don't forget to remove your settlers, tanks, checkpoints and anything that is a reminder of ILLEGAL OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE.

You have to wonder whether the Israeli government was pressured to give a truce a chance during the US inauguration. If the rockets don't stop, I hope they go back and finish the job mid week. Once and for all they have to make it clear that they will not put up with someone terrorizing their citizens.

SHAME ON YOU! Making big words of going all the way when they would dear to attack. SO ???? They are attacking again and again and you sit idle!!! Go and take ALL their bunkers, including Haniyeh and Zahar.

The Israelis have no choice but but to seize all of Gaza, and root out this malevolent, poison crew named Hamas. Its going to be a grim march into the city proper, but there is no choice. None. Now we will wait a no. of days, probably hours, for round #2 & the final wrap-up to begin. Sorry indeed for what is coming, but you & I always knew how this was going to finish.

Let the UN evacuate all the civilians from Gaza to Egypt. Let Israel finish its job to drive out all the Hamas terrorists to Iran and Syria from where they really belong to.

and they seem to be all over the Israeli talkbacks using the usual Jewish names to hide behind. Funny about these islamists - they always hide. They hide behind ski masks, women and children, Jewish names - are they ashamed of being scumbag killers?

only sad and not funny. It's not surprising Hamas has not stopped firing, even though Israel has agreed to a cease-fire. Did anyone expect a a different result?! We've seen this happen over & over & over & over... ad nauseum. I think it's obscene to allow this to happen once again.

"All of the Palestinians must be killed; men, women, infants, and even their beasts." This was the religious opinion issued one week ago by Rabbi Yisrael Rosen, director of the Tsomet Institute, a long-established religious institute attended by students and soldiers in the Israeli settlements of the West Bank. In an article published by numerous religious Israeli newspapers two weeks ago and run by the liberal Haaretz on 26 March, Rosen asserted that there is evidence in the Torah to justify this stand.
