1. Are Hezbollah leaders that stupid? Must be
JPS ,   Efrat   (08.11.09)
With stupid statements like this, it's no wonder that the Iranians are willing to fight to the last Lebanese. No sooner does Lebanon start recovering from the last stupid act by Hezbollah do we here them pretend again that they are big and strong. Remember the last war? Hezbollah got permission from Iran to attack Israel - and in return Israel pounded Lebanon. No, we did not get "permission" from the Americans. It was simply a reaction to Hezbollah aggression and Iranian imperialism. Remember who colonizes and occupies Lebanon now - it's Iran, not Israel.
2. Rewritting history - Hezbollah misjudged israel and attacked
Eric ,   Tel Aviv   (08.11.09)
Last war Hezbollah attacked Israel and was surprised and the response, so now with their "psychological warfare against" Israel declaring that they can hit Tel Aviv is not considered aggression but Israel reminding them that it can and will hit Beirut if attacked again counts as warmongering. Also, as Hezbollah does nothing with out the approval of Iran it is a nice try at diversion in saying that Israel needs permission from the USA to defend itself. And finally, village of Ghajar and the Shebaa Farms are not and never were part of Lebanon.
3. (Voice of micky mouse) Photo frauds, radio frauds...
Ypip ,   Canada   (08.11.09)
what's the difference? None really...
4. The Lebonese propaganda industry out-does Ed Wood everytime
Ypip ,   Canada   (08.11.09)
5. US Permission ?
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.11.09)
And when Israel is under attack from all directions we still have to get US permission ? How pathetic that we call ourselves "independant" and even more so celebrate "Indpendance Day" .It will be a celebration when we are "independant of the US"
6. TOTAL LOAD OF TRASH. NOT WORTHY OF FURTHER COMMENT
Scott   (08.11.09)
7. We know it is a matter of time but .....
Ramy ,   Lebanon   (08.11.09)
this time it is going to be different stuff. However, it won't be this year, down the road
8. Israel won't strike,
ghostq   (08.11.09)
hisb lost the battle for the Lebanees vote and the sugar dady aka Syria r in financial troble, to go on a war, mmm even a child can figure this out.
9. Unfortunately he is RIGHT-Israel must get US approval!!
Alan ,   SA   (08.11.09)
10. Israel will never attack Lebanon if there are no attacks...
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (08.11.09)
...from Lebanese soil! It all depends on Lebanon, so the whining female masquerading as the Lebanese President should talk to his Syrian and Iranian masters to hold Hezbollah by the leash and give it lots of tranquilizers unless they want another "victory" like two years ago.
11. Everybody knows that. This is all about Hezbollah's image
Jo   (08.11.09)
are reason for existance. They are facing a tough time at home. Israel only has interest in a peaceful border. Let us not forget it was Hezbo that crossed the border and kidnapped two israeli border soliders killing them in the process. They iniated this, they just did not count on Israel's response to their act of aggression. Israel would have never done such a thing. And many Lebanese know this.
12. PRESIDENT OBAMA !!!.
ORAO STRANKA. ,   TSARIGRAD U SRBIA.   (08.11.09)
"Since 1956 Israel has not launched a war without getting the United States' consent, and therefore Israel's wars rely on American decisions," he told the newspaper. "Hence the question arises whether US President Barack Obama will support war in his first year in office. BY HIS POLICY, PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL, SEVERE THE HITHERTO POLITICAL TIES BETWEEN ISRAEL AMD THE US, TO SUCH EXTENT THAT - ISRAEL WILL CHOSE ANOTHER POLITICAL ALLIE, TO THE WORST FOR BOTH ISRAEL AND THE US. GO TO HELL PRESIDENT OBAMA !!!. Orao.
13. The rhetorical tactic of Nasrallah.
Ron B. ,   Lod   (08.11.09)
Nasrallah has one rhetorical tactic that he deploys every time Hezbollah experiences internal pressure in Lebanon: he accuses his opponents of working for the CIA, the Mossad, the Jews, or the Americans. For Nasrallah “there is an American plan that we are fighting against. This is the nature of the crisis.” And: “This struggle is between an honorable resistance, which is endorsed by Arabs and Muslims, and the United States and its allies.” More about the “honorable resistance” at : http://xrl.us/oowhv
14. Should not we delude ourselves?
sam ,   Denver-colorado   (08.11.09)
Should not we delude ourselves? From now on I think any future war, Israel will not win the loss will be much more from the other side
15. war with huzballah ?
Lebanese ,   Lebanon   (08.11.09)
In the last war with huzballah, israel didnt achieve anything and finograd report proved that. So i guess israel should enter war with huzballah again, so Huzballah can teach israel a stronger lesson to not enter again any war with huzballah. ya israel can destroy all lebanon but i want to see what israel is going to do with huzballah.
