Some have tried ,some have died but few have succeeded.DO NOT MESS WITH THE LORD G-D OF ISRAEL .Mitchell go sling thy hook .

I hope all so called "string attached aid" is totally withheld. The sooner America sticks her hairy nose out of every one elses business, the better place this world will be. No one really likes America anyway, who really wants her as an ally, she is a liability that no one really likes. Israel be far better off with out any dirty American influences.

Its enough threatening from that really horrible posse that came to Washington City in Feb ! Let them do their worst .They are already on shaky ground with US public ... Every day there are signs of more incompetence ... The Health Care Bill is not the only show in town that bothers US Public The Dude says it right ... Go tell US War Industry that there are no Jobs to work on ... I think Israel has had no contracts since Hussein Obama came to power... Its a problem but rather develop Israeli Aviation and other War Materiel Industry . I cant see the posse being in power after 2012.

insisting on settlement construction is another. I believe that the US will charge Israel what was paid for aid before.

....remember,he is acting under orders...anything idiotic he does is in fact,ordered,in the long run,by the supreme idiot.. And we all know who that is... Hint:...Barack Hussein Obama,or is that too much of a hint??

There is a 1949 armistace agreement, but no border so what are the Americans trying to say?

"The Dude says it right ... Go tell US War Industry that there are no Jobs to work on ... I think Israel has had no contracts since Hussein Obama came to power... Its a problem" Well, I guess if we had no contracts with Israel since President Obama was voted in by AMERICANS, then we have no problem. As you said, you have the problem. Kind of sick too - to suggest that AMERICAN jobs depend on israeli's bombing Palestinian and Lebanese civilians and civilian infrastructure. Of course, after each of your righteous belligerant episodes the rest of the world has to pick up the pieces and foot the bill.

Some of us have been warning for some time now, Israel needs to become as self-sufficient as possible. If this story turns out to have legs, it can be a good thing if only the Jews draw the proper lessons from it. Otherwise we must accept our lot: national suicide or close to it. This is the choice Mr. Obama is presenting the Jews: "Either you commit national suicide or we will impose sanctions."

that economic aid has not been given to israel in decades by the usa. israel didn;t want or need it for decades now. additionally, the aid, 2.775 billion dollars yearly that the usa gives israel in soft loans, and which are paid back in full by israel is ONLY 3% OF ISRAEL'S TOTAL GDP. israel can replace this aid asap if it wishes to because their economy is incredible. now, comoared to the american economy, israel is floorishing in its trade, imports, exports and start up companies on the nasdaq and everywhere. this 2.775 billions annually comes with strings attached. israel is suppose to turn around and spend THE WHOLE AMOUNT INSIDE THE USA BY ORDERING ARMS, JETS, TANKS, WARFARE SYSTEMS, ETC.. THIS CREATES THOUSANDS OF JOBS FOR THE USA DEFENSE DEPARTMENT AND THE DEFENSE INDUSTRY, GIVING THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AND WORKERS IN THOSE SECTORS VERY CUSHY JOBS WITH HIGH PAY. israel is not allowed to import or export any of its military needs from any other country except the usa. this is the golden rule that the usa put forth when they decided to give this loan aid to israel in the first place. can you imagine lockheed martin or boeing loosing thousands of jobs because israel will now not spend this money on warfare and military hardware???? can you imagine how many thousands of people would loose their jobs in the american government and industry??? also, can you imagine if israel stops giving mossad terror plots findings and itelligence to the pentagon, weakening the usa intelligence in the middle east and thereby strengthening russia's footing in that region? additionally, all the full stops that america put towards israel by forcing it not to sell israeli made and invented military technology and the latest military inventions like israeli drones (america and eu use those in iraq and afghanistan)...israel can turn around and say. well, we are free to deal with whomever we want without any american moratorium on our military hardware. believe me, many countries will rush to buy these latest inventions because israel is known as the best military technology in the world. compared to the usa, israel is up there with the best of them. selling their inventions will guarantee israel making up for the meager 3% of their gdp loose when usa withraws their loans and aid. israel wanted to do this for ages and now it can stop being america's whore and slave in the mid east. israel must do what is in its survival and security interests. american citizens do not live in gaza and have no danger. therefore, they can't impose their ideas of what constitutes security and needs of israeli citizens. only the israeli government can do that and the hell with the usa. by the way, does anyone realize that obama just gave egypt 2 billion dollars in military aid???? what for? who is really threatening egypt? also, jordan and lebanon got this aid as well this year. why? who is threatening these countries. obama gives aid to despotic regimes whose survival is not threatened in the region, but keeps it away from israel. now tell me again, why did jews in the usa voted for this antisemite? should obama do this nefarious deed, i can guarantee you he will be out in 2012. good riddance to bad and naive garbage. hameed aboughaze, iranian

the top 15 economies in the world are digging in to preserve their stake in the massive U.S. military budget. With the country in deep recession and resources dwindling for the Obama administration’s programs on health care, education, and the environment, the outcome of this battle may well end up defining the next four years. “you will just get mowed down by the defense industry.” The Umbilical Cord used to nurse Israel in the old golden days war, with arms and ammunition, would be at least strangulated.

Fellow Zionists, I vote for McCain/Palin, who has bigger balls than Obama, Biden, Rahm, and Axelrod combined. I warned my fellow Jews NOT to vote for the liberal, defeatest, perfidious democrats. Higher taxes on insurance policies, etc., who will pay for it, ask yourselves? Who benefits. Yet liberal NY and Calif Jews are in the Democratic pocket. Schonda. Get rid of any liberal thugs my fellow friends, before we all face Hasans and Nigerians who advocate Jihad. Yes, deny Israel those planes..and it will produce more nukes you morons..aimed at every Arab city, AND Tehran, if shoved. Everyone, write Hillary to get RID OF MITCHELL ASAP AND BRING IN BOLTON INSTEAD. Obama, 3yrs go by quickly.

Britain issued arrest warrants for Jews..well, Israel can do the same for the EU AND Mitchell, the Arab. Isn't he Lebanese? Hussein Obama and Jim Jones are smiling now, that they fooled we Jews (I didn't vote for this biased Palestinian lover). Yet we Jews gave him millions of our hard earned, after tax ( higher now) dollars. In Cal, we are feeling the pinch..thanks to the liberal Boxer and Feinstein. NY is starving thanks to Schumer..and his liberal West Manhatten stooges. Obamacare is on life support..cap and trade is irrelevant, and a terrorist will be tried near a Jewish neighborhood. I'm waiting for bombs to go off all over NY City and environs..thanks to our lax security. We NEED profiling and now.

Like the strong sanctions imposed on Iran ? Obama has squandered much on a health care program he sold out to the big pharms in private, despite his pledge of transparency. He may well lose the Democratic majority in US Senate and Democratic seats in House of Reps in 10 months. Will he have US Senate approval then. He cannot even say the word 'terror' regarding the Detroit plane and Ft Hood, Texas events even while Americans call it terrorism. He licks Chavez of Venezuela, Syria, Iran & Saudi Arabia but kicks Israel publicly.Does Abbas represent Gaza or anyone ??

So the mighty USA threatens Israel with economic blockade. It is amazing that they do not do the same to the Palestinians and the Iranians and the Syrians and the Egyptians. If I did not know better I would say that Barack Hussein Obama is showing his true colors.

Threat are an act of deperation. It is not that `obama does not like or trust Israel is that they are frustrated that nothing they are trying to do seems to be working so they are just lashing out. Nothing will become of this because the Arabs do not want the Peace. Israel is the first thorn in there side that is stopping there conquest of the world

It's high time for my family and I to make Aaliyah to Israel! We're all hi-tech earners over $100K each. If this government won't do what's right with my tax money, then it's time for me to give it directly to Israel!

Hameed ; You have topped all the good posts on the subject of Mitchell's threats... It is a shame....With allies like US under current administration, Israel is better off fighting alone the World War on Terror. I wish Natanyahu would read your post too...

Israel needs to tell the USA Envoy to go back home and mind their own business. Israel is a nation, under no one else's control and God is perfectly able to provide everything Israel needs without the USA.

shut up and try something new for a change? With borders you will be defending your country. Without borders you are brutally subjugating a religious minority in an illegally occcupied "territory". BTW, you shrill "american" israel firsters. READ the article. Nothing about sanctions or blockades. Just the withdrawal of US guarantees of israeli loans which means israel loans will be more expensive. A minor inconvenience to Israel which saw no effects of the global recession but is this a signal of more to come? Israel, the ball is in your court.

And tell the US EXACTLY what to do with their money. US aid comes with strings anyway. Israel is forced to buy US military equipment instead of making its own. A cancellation of US aid would be the best thing that could happen to Israeli military industry development.

Will bring an abrupt end to any form of amarican superiority. call it end of days... call it backstabing a friend... Israel is not the reason why we dont have peace today. The monstrous palastinian people, those who send 12 year old boys to kill themselves are the people we have to make peace with. thus there will never be peace... the Pal dont want peace - never did. America needs to chose a side it wants to be on before the end comes... and it will come Obama will face huge problems if he turn their back on Israel, as his radical muslim agenda will not far well with most americans

I hate to take away the hope of the American people, but Mr. Obama and his democratic party don't plan on going anywhere in 2012 unless there is a major change in the spiritual climate of the nation. Repentance of her sins, and total support of ISRAEL. He is a dictator and he fears no one and nothing. Why do you think he bulldozed through the stimulus and health care bills? Why do you think they are doing their will IN SPITE OF what the American people have loudly voiced they want? The people have been totally disregarded... completely IRRELEVANT they are to him and his demon cohorts! The same way he trampled on the US Constitution to be "elected" and got away with it, now he tramples on ANYTHING else it says. Inspired by satan, he is exercising HIS will. Why have 3 democratic senators suddenly backed out of the Party? They are scared to death. G-d is in control, and because of America's sin of turning against Israel (although there is a faithful remnant and G-d knows who they are) and other sins listed in the Torah of which all nations of the world are unrepentant, He has allowed this judgment. America must get on her knees and call on the Creator for forgiveness of her sins and THEN for deliverance from this monster.

To everyone reading this site: please contact Hillary, Gates, Biden and Obama. Let them know they are playing with fire..and OUR lives. While Washington is fiddling, Iran/Hez/Hamas build tunnels to hide nukes..and rockets. Israel is being restrained (UN, EU, Goldstone) from pre-empting. Folks, once Iran gets the bomb, no Jewish neighborhood will be safe from an explosion ( Iran will deny it). Hasan and Ft Hood are just the beginning, what about a supermarket, shopping mall, yeshiva, shul? Obama is a naive fool, who spent 20ys at Rev Wrights church. Wha? His roots are showing more and more. He is a George Bush Sr, Baker, Zvig, Carter, Soros, Rose liberal anti-Israel, pro-Pales supporter. He picked Rosenthal..( see J Street), while Iran is getting enriched ore..building missiles and Qom. One nuke is their goal, over Tel Aviv. Jerusalem will be history, for the historians. Unless...

Egypt gets over 2.5 billion dollars in aid that will go away at the same time. Jordan will no longer get any aid and the same for the PNA. Aid to Egypt is 40% of their defense budget, for Jordan that is about 50% and the PNA, about 25%. We can easily survive a 3% reduction, bet the Arab world can't

I have yet to find this US threat on any other news site. Is there another site reporting this?
