1. Greed
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (11.30.09)
I have no information regarding any specific person or institution, but one of the primary reasons why we are seeing the collapse of yet another successful business, in this long year and a half of collapses, can surely be attributed to greed. The desire for more. And more. From investors on Wall Street to Dubai, and maybe even here, too, the world has gotten itself into a nasty spiral of pure accumulation of wealth which far exceeds any real human need for such excesses. How many steaks can you eat? How many steaks do you have to eat? Many have benefitted from piggy-backing on the greedy who were successful, charitable and generous. Now they, too, will suffer from the fall of the greedy.
2. Opening the amusement park on Shabbos will seal his failure.

3. #2 Punishment for developing the occupied terrotries
leah ,   Ramat Ha Sharon   (11.30.09)
Lev Leviev has been deeply invlved in developing the occupied terrortries, I belive this is Gods way of punishing him for suppressing the Palestinian Nation.
4. Great logic, "leah"-wrong conclusion
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (11.30.09)
God made Mr. Leviev rich precisely at that time when he built in Judea and Samaria, historically the land of the Jewish people. But now, when Mr. Leviev turned his energy to something else, God is showing his unhappiness.
5. Do these people ever really feel it
(11.30.09)
in their personal lives? In their extravagant homes , designer clothes, still travelling by air everywhere non stop...etc? I doubt it.
6. Bad decisions = Bad Results
Alon K, ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.01.09)
Capitalism cuts both ways - taking crazy risks can result in riches or failure (nothing wrong with that). One thing for sure - I don't want my tax Shekels going to bailing them out as a result of our corrupt politicians being lobbied by Leviev & Co.
