1. buenos aires
tom ,   bsas,argentina   (08.14.09)
we suffered 2 terrorists attacks here in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 92 and 94. We must be ready and vigilant. LONG LIVE ISRAEL
2. warm ties
John ,   Boise, Idaho USA   (08.14.09)
oh, yes, here we present Hugo -Chevy and Mama-ood exchanging very warm ties and their wonderful display of leadership for the world to see. Show us all once again those dedicated charity organizations you hide behind and the fruits of your "peaceful" religion..
3. So .....
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
How best to deal with this? Leave those camps in place to flourish and grow? I think not. That would be equivalent to sentencing every Jew in Central and South America to looking over their shoulder and living in absolute fear. Unacceptable. Perhaps it is time to contemplate the notion of a double strike. A hit on Iran simultaneously with the complete and utter destruction of Hizbollah in Lebanon. A master (Iran) without a slave (Hizbollah) cannot do much. We were far too delicate with Hizbollah in 2006; carpet bombing was the answer then and is the answer now. Civilian population be damned. (Just like what the Allies did to Germany and precisely what the United States did to Japan.) Iran -- well, all their nuclear power plants have been conclusively demonstrated to be breeder reactors. You do not need a breeder reactor for "peaceful purposes." You need it to enrich spent fuel rods to weapons grade plutonium or uranium. We know who Iran's target no. 1 is. We know that the Iranian mullahs don't really care. What are we waiting for? What?
4. Give em my address - I ain't hiding.
Robby ,   San Jose, USA   (08.14.09)
5. I heard BBC report today on Venezuela-Iran Relations.....
Alan ,   SA   (08.14.09)
The BBC lady investigator kept asking the people she was interviewing ,where was the "EVIDENCE" for Hezballah involvement in South America and Venezuela ... She made me puke!
6. Israel reaps what is sows.
Chas. ,   Los Angeles   (08.14.09)
Enjoy!
7. To: No. 6
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
You pig. Israel has sown NOTHING but a desire to live in peace side by side with people sworn to its destruction. Witness six wars and sixty-one years of unrelenting terror, brought by the Palestinians to the world on an unparalleled scale. That said ..... Israel's enemies have sown the wind. Now they are going to have to reap the whirlwind. Which they --- most assuredly --- will NOT enjoy.
8. i tell you it is all a conspiracy
rashid ,   palistinian   (08.14.09)
our two leaders are just good friends and i dont want you lot come back some time in the future after ahmadinajad or hugo peretz pass away to say that they died of aids believe me like what you say about our rais what is buried now in ramle yes believe me i will not lie to you they are just good friends and nothing is going on
9. to rashid No 8
alexander tel-aviv   (08.14.09)
Your rais died in French hospital and which isn't contoled by Israel, and the cause of his death is known to his wife and his entourage, and they keep it secret. Why not publish it, or is it too embarassing? Your poor souls, you're so primitive.
10. Terrorists
Lebanon ,   Beirut   (08.14.09)
Sarah B: How could you support what happened in Japan and Germany? Killing of thousands and thousands of innocent people !!! Are you a terrorist ?
11. Where are the people
Ilan ,   Ariel   (08.14.09)
Chavez and Achmani'mad together in a room and not a human being in sight.
12. Of course waiting for your advice Mrs Sarah B #3
George ,   Canada   (08.14.09)
I have been reading your crap for a while, just to let you know, no more American or Canadian soldiers will be dying for Israel. The way you like it is to defend Israel from your New York apartment by the others hand, don’t you? Are you living in fear? Continue to do so .You the Israeli go mess around and we have to clean up your sh...t. Assassination will bring counter assassination; this is the work of your hand. Good luck
13. No patience for fools
Dave ,   Canada   (08.14.09)
#12- George you ignorant Canuck asshole- no US or Canadians have ever died for Israel- Go back to your beer swilling and Tim Horton's donuts.
14. To: Alexander at No. 9
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
You might be new here. Rashid, Palistinian may or may not be Israeli; may or may not be a Jew ..... but he is extraordinarily funny and I always hunt for his posts for a rollicking good time. "Rashid Palistinian" is a master of tongue-in-cheek parody and sarcasm. He is no Palestinian, that much I assure you. He may be a Brit, because he once wrote "rumour" (as distinct from "rumor," as an American would write). Just read and enjoy.
15. To: George at No. 12
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
You fool. You are so full of crap you really ought to contemplate a laxative. No American or Canadian soldier has ever died to protect any Jew or on behalf of Israel. On the other hand, plenty Americans and Canadians have died for the sake of ungrateful Arabs. Moreover, I was not talking about assassination. I was talking about carpet bombing Hizbollah in Lebanon back into the tenth century (which is their mindset anyway) and putting a stop to Iran's nuclear ambitions. Which Israel should not HAVE to do. Sad, isn't it, that Israel is the only country in the world with the stones and the moxie to do it. \ Just as well -- anyone else will only screw it up. Want proof: have a gander at Afghanistan and Iraq. Remember what happened to the mighty US in Somalia at the hands of a bunch of barefoot warlords using World War II vintage rifles and a couple of 30 year old RPGs? Yet again ..... it appears that Israel is tasked with cleaning up the world's messes (not the other way around, as you so ignorantly seem to think). For which Israel can expect criticism instead of gratitude. Finally -- I live in New York six months of the year, and in Israel for the balance. You were saying?
16. TALKBACK NUMBER 3.
ORAO STRANKA. ,   TSARIGRAD U SRBIA.   (08.14.09)
LET ME AD - STRIKE HAMAS ANS SYRIA ALSO !!!. GOD BLESS !!!. Orao.
17. Terror cells
Larry ,   Phila. USA   (08.14.09)
There are Terror cells waiting in canada and the US also. They will kick off when they get the signal and with obama as president you know that there will be no response. Excet the imposition of martia law to keep the people from responding and the condemming of Israel.
18. Sarah B
herb glatter ,   jenkintown, pa   (08.14.09)
it's a lonely uphill battle against Jew haters, G-d Bless You!!!!!!!!!! it's unfortunate many of our co-religionists don't share your dedication. Shabbat Shalom
19. Sarah IAF doesnt have heavy bombers
JS ,   USA   (08.14.09)
20. To: No. 10
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
How can I support what happened in Germany and Japan? Those events brouht an end to a war that cost 70 million lives. That's how. You know -- there is such a thing as a good war. A war that puts an end to a monstrous evil. To suggest otherwise is immature and foolish.
21. Sarah B...
Mark ,   US   (08.14.09)
is totally full of it! I read the posts here on a regular basis and have never once seen Isreal next to her name, it is always New York. I have been reading posts hear since at least 2006. She gets so angry and defensive because others are calling her on her sh*t. She lies about her residency so she can sound like she is revelant to the issues in her "homeland". (go back Sarah) She is just a tired old (?) women with nothing else to do but whine about how much amercia sucks, and how israel is so great and the best nation on earth (yet, she lives here...humm?) She will send others to die for her cause and has anger and contempt for any non-jew and anybody who disagrees with her.She does not know how to have civil debate and always resorts to charges of left wing zealotory or anti-semitism (of which i am neither. I am sympathic to Israel and its fit, but find its action very hard to defend sometimes) Sarah...did i sum it up pretty well? Do you really think you are persuading anyone to your side when you talk like that? You are just preaching to the choir sweety, save your breath. In your response, which will you attack me on: A) my intelligence B) my income compared to yours C) my left wing mentality (voted for bush and mccain, but that doesn't matter to her) D) all of the above. I anxiously await your response! By the way, you are far from objective when it comes to your analyis of our conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan and Somalia. How can you live in a country where you don't trust or repect their armed forces? Do you not feel safe?
22. To: No. 19
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
FIrst of all, I am not so sure that they don't. That said, they wouldn't need them. Lebanon is a lot closer to Israel than Germany was to the U.K. Israel can pound Lebanon pretty mercilessly from the ground, too.
23. Lebanon will get finished by Israel
Efi ,   Washington DC   (08.14.09)
Lebanon already commited suicide by letting Hezbollah into their house to run their daily business. What losers.
24. Cant carpet bomb without heavy bombers
JS ,   USA   (08.14.09)
25. to# 23
Lebanese Forever ,   Lebanon   (08.14.09)
wonder if they will post my comment Seems you see with 1 eye only, israel destroyed lebanon and we rebuilt it. What did israel achieve in last war? did u read finograd report or u can not read? Huzballah now is stronger. so we will see next war, this time huzballah will hit Tel Aviv and the israeli will run out from israel. We will see in next war what will happen. huzballah is going to give another lesson to make israel not to enter any war again.

28. To: No. 21
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (08.14.09)
Alas and alack, work has kept me in New York and therefore not in Israel. (Collapse of the credit markets caused the collapse of the shipping markets and there is admiralty work aplenty). I am not here to persuade anyone to my point of view. I am, however, quite entitled to express said point of view. You are free to counter however you like. Whether you choose to do so via a personal attack is up to you -- it says quite a bit more about you than you may realize. Such vitriol is unseemly. In any event, my response is: (E) None of the above. Finally -- I do love and respect the United States armed forces. That does not keep me from expressing the truth of what has happened in fields of battle.
29. I do not understand
Manuel ,   Buenos Aires, Arg   (08.15.09)
Argentina's president CFKirchner will attend the act, marking the 15th anniversary of the AMIA bombing after recently arriving from a trip to Venezuela where she signed agreements and exchanged hugs and kisses with Chavez
30. Buenos Aires
Yhwh ,   Bs.AS   (08.15.09)
Hezbollah is hiding here in Bs.AS but not all argentinians are culpably of that
